When Andy Robertson revealed to Jurgen Klopp that he'd been made Scotland captain, the Liverpool manager's response was... well, pretty much exactly what you'd imagine.

At the age of just 24, Robertson was handed the armband back in September in the wake of Scott Brown's (second) international retirement a few months previous.

Of course, brimming with pride, the left-back text Klopp to let him know before the Scottish FA made the news public.

Talking to Open Goal, Robertson described the precise...

Wayne Rooney is all set to win his 120th and final (you'd assume) international cap when he turns out for England one last time at Wembley.

Having called time on his Three Lions tenure two years ago, Rooney returns for one night only with a brief cameo appearance against the United States designed by the English Football Association to wish the striker a fond farewell.

What better way to mark the occasion then chart the evolution of England's record goal scorer, all the way from teenage tyro to...

Having recently missed out on the latest Belgium squad, Marouane Fellaini decided to perk himself up by staying at home and treating himself to a bold new makeover.

A week or so before his 31st birthday, Fellaini has streamlined his look by shaving off the dense mound of wiry hair that he's been proudly sporting (and sprouting) atop his head for the past decade or more.

Looking several pounds lighter, the Manchester United midfielder debuted his utilitarian 'do on Instagram along with the caption...

The English Football Association has suspended a referee after he used an impromptu game of rock/paper/scissors to decide the kickoff of a recent Women's Super League match.

Realising he'd left his coin in the dressing room, official David McNamara asked the two captains of Manchester City and Reading -- Steph Houghton and Kirsty Pearce, respectively -- to determine which side kicked off.

This, as the FA will tell you, directly contravenes the laws of the game, which specify that a coin toss must...

In a somewhat unlikely turn of events, World Cup winners Olivier Giroud and Presnel Kimpembe have made their acting debuts.

With club football on the back-burner for a week or two, Cristiano Ronaldo ventured to London to watch a little tennis for the ATP Tour finals at the O2 Arena.

With the family in tow, Ronaldo had prime seats to watch Novak Djokovic take on John Isner -- the former ultimately trouncing the latter in straight sets to keep his quest for a record-equalling sixth Finals title on track.

Things didn't go quite as smoothly for the Juventus star, who at one point attempted to catch an errant ball only to...
