We all know Mario Balotelli is a big fan of practical jokes, but the tables have been turned in this video.

You’d have to be either extremely brave or very stupid to be a stand-up comedian.

Of course an occupational hazard of the job […]

When Ever Banega scored a beautiful free kick against Barcelona in the UEFA Super Cup, he must have thought he’d netted the set-piece of the game. He opened the scoring for Sevilla with this class effort… https://twitter.com/barcastuff/status/631176102229221376 But then up stepped the genius that is Lionel Messi.

It’s widely assumed in Spain that Pedro’s move to Manchester United has been delayed so that he could play for Barcelona in their UEFA Super Cup clash with Sevilla on Tuesday.
