Giddy Frank Lampard and Sad Steven Gerrard both score in their final Premier League match
After years of highlighting and comparing their incompatible brilliance, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard have both ended their England careers and their careers in England this season. Both signed off from the Premier League with a goal in their final match before heading to MLS, but the hugely different circumstances in which they scored and emotions on the day sum up their divergent experiences in the Premier League.

It appears that even the police can’t resist The Magic of The FA Cup as one officer took part in a kick around with a few kids outside Wembley before the semifinal between Liverpool and Aston Villa on Sunday.
Onlookers gave her a cheer and sang “sign her up, sign her up!”
Hopefully distracting people with a demonstration of footy skills catches on as a means of keeping the peace. The guy who filmed this should have been arrested for not doing so in landscape mode, though.
Tim Sherwood might be ridiculous like a fox
Tim Sherwood is a silly man. Between the touchline celebrations and outerwear throwing, the self-aggrandizing talk of win ratios, keeping Harry Kane at Spurs and trying to sign Raheem Sterling at 14, the guy mockingly referred to as “Tactics Tim” seems to revel in making people notice him — even if it’s as the butt of a joke.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has a habit of saying things that sound like David Brent quotes and after his side’s 2-1 loss to Aston Villa in the FA Cup semifinals, he added another line to the collection.
