With the international break only really getting started at the weekend, there's not an awful lot of football being played this week.
In its absence, some might suggest that days such as this are 'slow news days' when it comes to reporting important stories from the football world.
Luckily for you lot, here at JOE we've got our finger on the pulse, which is precisely why we're bringing you this report about Zlatan Ibrahimovic celebrating a goal by appearing to sniff a goalkeeper's arse.
Some of you will be disappointed to learn that it's not *real life* Zlatan Ibrahimovic that's sticking his famously-prominent nose into the crevice of some poor, unsuspecting goalkeeper in the clip below.
Instead, it's the FIFA 17 version of the Manchester United striker, who finds himself in the awkward position after being clattered by the goalkeeper while prodding the ball into the goal.
Not that you'd need any more excuses to watch the video (which has racked up plenty of views since it surfaced), but we should also point out that the footage is accompanied by a truly magnificent piece of music *and* a gif of a shocked cat that you've probably only seen a few thousand times before.
