Spanish Goalkeeper Allows Four Goals In Six Minutes, Saves Best Fail For Last.

Posted on January 23, 2012 by Mike

Enaut Zubikarai, the goalkeeper for Real Sociedad, had a very evening earlier this month. Playing in the Copa del Rey’s round of 16, Zubikarai allowed Mallorca to score six goals in the first 60 minutes, and Real Sociedad lost, 6-1. This particular moment of utter failure was Mallorca’s fourth goal in a six-minute stretch.

Soccer team adds Twitter handles on jerseys.

Posted on November 7, 2011 by Mike

Twitter handle on soccer jerseyMexican first division soccer team Jaguares de Chiapas has a reputation for being a forward-thinking, innovative club. That makes sense, since the club has only been in existence since 2002.

Its latest bold move takes the social media craze right onto the playing field. Jaguares recently unveiled new jerseys that replace the names on the backs with a player’s Twitter handle.

“Conscious of the age we live in, where we can all stay in touch through the Internet without regard to distance, Jaguares launched a campaign and realized various activities linked to Twitter,” the club said on its website.

It’s believed to be the first time a professional sports team has officially used Twitter handles on jerseys. The uniforms also feature the Twitter handle of club sponsor Cerveza Sol.
