The World Cup/Funny

2011 Women's World Cup - After being subbed in and scoring a goal, Megan Rapinoe runs to the corner boom mic and starts singing "Born in the USA" into it.
2010 World Cup had quite some Epic Fail material, such as this missed save by Robert Green, and these non-goals.
- We also had a bird casually sitting on Algeria's goal in their match against England. Presumably because it knew the ball would go nowhere near the goal. The bird gained a fan following on Facebook and Twitter.
The second Cameroonian goal against Colombia in 1990 (a great showcase of goalkeeper-clown Rene Higuita)
Mwepu Ilunga of Zaire not understanding the meaning of "free kick". (Well, until Fridge Horror sets in.)
1998, Chile vs. Austria. Chilean captain Ivan Zamorano shouts instructions at his team at some point, and a close-up to his face reveals how potty-mouthed he is. Hilarity Ensues.
A Non Sequitur Scene in 1982, where France 4-1 Kuwait had a goal annulled because a Sheikh convinced the Soviet referee that the Kuwaiti team stopped after hearing a whistle!
One of the earliest World Cup videos, from 1938, has a French goalkeeper missing a save and hitting the post!
