Sometimes it is just not enough to produce a sensational volleyed finish from outside the penalty area.

It certainly wasn't enough for Alejandro Chumacero, who decided against sensibly taking a high ball down and finding a shot and instead proceeded to launch himself into the air and hammer an outrageous overhead kick volley into the net.

The midfielder, representing The Strongest against Wilstermann in Bolivia, was so stunned himself that he simply dropped to his knees in disbelief at what he had just done.

Needless to say, the bewildered Wilstermann goalkeeper was left reeling, scarcely

What makes the 'Legends Football League' all the more ridiculous is that, this year, it changed its name from the 'Lingerie Football League' because chairman Mitchell S Mortaza felt its uniforms and image were hurting its credibility.

For those not aware of this phenomenon, it involves seven-a-side teams of scantily-clad women playing full-contact American Football. Starting as throwaway half-time entertainment for Super Bowl viewers, it gained in popularity to become established as a fully-fledged 'sport' of its own.

Whatever your personal views of the objectification of women for

French cyclist Francois Gissy has broken the world speed record after attacking a rocket to his bike.

The fearless Gissy reached speeds of 163mph at an old runway in Munchhouse, Alsace.

The previous record of 150mph, set in 2002, was also rocket-assisted.

Gissy's contraption is hydrogen peroxide-powered and, as you can see in our video, packs quite a punch.

Just don't tell Lance Armstrong.

Manchester United fans still smarting from Nani's red card against Real Madrid may wish to look away now.

The Portuguese winger was infamously dismissed for catching Alvaro Arbeloa in the chest with a high foot - but that had nothing on an incident in the Copa do Brasil this week.

ABC striker Rodrigo Silva was making a minor challenge for the ball in midfield when Sport Recife's Ailson came steaming in.

Ailson booted the ball away but his follow-through caught his opponent high on the shoulder, cleaning him out completely.

Remarkably, Ailson was only shown a yellow card for a manoeuvre that

Hold onto your hats: the Special One is back. Well, sort of...

Chelsea fans desperate to see Jose Mourinho return to the club this summer would have had a shock at Fulham Broadway tube after a waxwork of the former boss popped up at the station which serves Stamford Bridge.

The eerily-realistic Madame Tussauds creation was even donning a Chelsea scarf for the occasion and Blues supporters took the opportunity to have their photo taken with their hero.

Surely it's only a matter of time before the real thing is patrolling Chelsea once again.

Jimmy Davis's time at Waterloo Dock AFC (www.waterloodockafc.co.uk)

England's longest-serving football manager is retiring aged 71 after overseeing several trophy-laden decades at the club he loves - but he is not called Sir Alex Ferguson.

Just days after the footballing world watched Ferguson call time on his managerial career, Jimmy Davies will step aside from his post at amateur club Waterloo Dock after a 50-year stint that makes the former Manchester United boss's 26 years look short.

Davies has a lot in common with the highly successful Ferguson even though the worlds of a non-league Liverpool-based club and the serial Premier League champions are poles

You can't get two words out about motorsport these days without somebody complaining that it's all about who has the fastest car rather than who is the best driver.

But while there's a partial element of truth to that, anyone who really knowns their motor racing will be able to tell you that there's an awful lot more to it than that.

And now we have proof.

The proof in question comes courtesy of driver Leh Keen, a racing driver who has finished on the podium at the Le Mans 24hr and won the Grand-Am GT championship in an illustrious career.

He strapped on a helmet camera to give a true

You can't help but feel a bit sorry for referees, particularly in amateur matches.

I mean, really. Who would do it? You've got all the inconvenience of peeling yourself off the sofa on a Sunday morning to get up and out of the house and changed into kit, but none of the fun of actually playing football.

Then there are the abusive players, who seem to believe that abusing and threatening refs - at any level of the game - is a victimless crime. No doubt it's behaviour they've copied from the pros on TV - but while it might be understandable for those whose livelihoods depend on the outcome of
