Everyone loves a cat story. Especially a cat breaking the internet while playing goalkeeper ...
No?
Part-time footballer and YouTube sensation, Chris Dixon, uploaded a video to his nearly 1 million Twitter followers of his cat pulling off a series of acrobatic saves in 'goal' that would've left the likes of Gianluigi Buffon, David de Gea, Iker Casillas and, um, Peter Sch-meow-chel proud.
The video of the cat - reported to be named 'Meownuel Neuer' after Germany and Bayern Munich shot-stopper Manuel Neuer - had been viewed an incredible six million times at last glance.
Take a look. It's probably the most athletic thing you'll watch this week ... if not the entire Covid-19 lockdown.
The commentary to describe each save is of English Premier League standard. No really, it is.

Assuming the 2019/20 Absa Premiership season can't be concluded prior to the 31 July deadline decreed by FIFA, what would be the fairest way to settle matters - all bias aside?
