The 32-year-old athlete, who plays for the Seattle Sounders, is making headlines today after last night's U.S. Open Cup game, which saw the Portland Timbers beat the Sounders with a score of 3-1. While the fourth-round match was undoubtedly a disappointing loss for Seattle (it's the first time they've been defeated in U.S. Open Cup game at Starfire Stadium), the scoreboard only tells a small portion of what exactly went down on the field on Tuesday. According to multiple reports, the Sounders finished the game with just seven players after three were sent off the field—Dempsey, Brad Evans,...

A European night at Anfield is renowned as a spine-tingling affair, where the Kop end will almost certainly be in full voice come the full whistle no matter the score.
It’s for these reasons that a number of players have been left smarting at failed moves, ruing their employers at scuppering their chance at a ‘dream move’ to a big club – step forward sulkers Mohamed Diame, Clint Dempsey and Jean-Alain Boumsong.

U.S. Loses To Belgium
After 90 minutes of hard-fought play, the score was tied. Belgium had flooded the U.S. penalty box with opportunities on goal, but was repeatedly denied by Tim Howard and the defense. In stoppage time of regulation play, U.S. forward Chris Wondolowski hit a sitter – what could have been a winning goal – over the crossbar.
Early in the first 15-minute overtime half, Belgium’s Kevin De Bruyne managed to finally put one in the back of the net. Romelu Lukaku scored the second goal in the 105th minute, putting Belgium ahead by two.

However, 10 minutes into the second half, Germany’s Thomas Müller put one away to lift his team ahead. For the remainder of the game,...

Luis Suarez memes have taken over Twitter after the Uruguayan soccer player appeared to bite the shoulder of Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini in their 2014 World Cup face-off Tuesday afternoon.
Luis Suarez Biting Memes Go Viral
Suarez has been nicknamed the Hannibal Lecter of international soccer, having bitten at least two other opponents prior to Chiellini. Last year, while playing for his current club team – the English Premiere League’s Liverpool Fc – Suarez bit the arm of Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic. FIFA subsequently banned him for 10 games. In 2010, Suarez received a seven-match ban for biting Otman Bakkal in the Dutch Eredivisie.
In addition to drawing comparison’s to Hannibal, Suarez has now inspired memes that make him into a vampire, a zombie, Jaws and more.

Uruguayan soccer star Luis Suarez appeared to bite the shoulder of Giorgio Chiellini in his squad’s match against the Italian national team in their World Cup game Tuesday afternoon.
Luis Suarez Bites Giorgio Chiellini
In the 79th minute of play, with the game tied 0-0, Uruguay was given a set piece after a foul by Italy. Chiellini was tasked with marking Suarez in the penalty box. Before the ball was served, Suarez appeared to bite into the back of Chiellini’s shoulder.
Immediately after digging his teeth into his opponent, who fell to the ground, Suarez reached up to his mouth, acting as though Chiellini had delivered an elbow to his nose and jaw. An outraged Chiellini got up and pulled the collar of his shirt to show the ref the teeth marks, but Uruguay’s Gaston Ramirez ran over to pull the defender’s shirt over the wound.

They were less than 30 seconds away. The Americans were about to romp into the round of 16 at the World Cup, about to walk off with their first come-from-behind win at soccer's showcase. About to advance with a game to spare. About to win consecutive World Cup games for the first time since 1930. But they wilted in the Amazon heat and humidity. Silvestre Varela's goal on a diving header off Cristiano Ronaldo's cross 4½ minutes into five minutes of stoppage time gave Portugal a 2-2 tie Sunday on an exhausting night in the rainforest capital. "It's tough, but it's just the way it goes,...

Clint Dempsey scored the goal to put the U.S. men’s soccer team ahead of Portugal late in the second half of their World Cup game Sunday night.
Clint Dempsey Scores Against Portugal
With less than 10 minutes to go in the game with the U.S. tied 1-1 with Portugal, a shot by Michael Bradley was deflected out wide to Graham Zusi, who crossed the ball in front of the goal mouth, finding Dempsey, who chested the ball into the back of the net.
Dempsey’s goal in the 81st minute of play made it seem almost certain that the U.S. would get the three points and a trip into the next round of the World Cup. Deep into stoppage time, however, Portugal found a tying goal. After Bradley gave the ball away in the U.S. squad’s defensive half, Cristiano Ronaldo – who’d largely been ineffective...
