The hotels Brazil needs for the World Cup never got built
The Gávea Tourist is an empty shell of a hotel, a 14-story modernist monument of disintegrating concrete and decaying beauty that has been abandoned for four decades.

Barcelona player Dani Alves had the perfect response to a racist taunt in Sunday's game against Villarreal.

How Do Soccer Referees Determine Stoppage Time?
Toward the end of each half of a soccer match, the fourth official on the sideline hoists an illuminated sign over his or her head that displays a number.
