Whether it be exhilarating goal-fests, uplifting underdog stories or pulsating last minute drama, there's been something for...

Every now and then a player comes along who gets everybody's toes tingling, eyes widening, hearts racing. Y'know, the kind of emerging talent who warrants a few 'in form' cards on FIFA.

When Zlatan Ibrahimovic signed for LA Galaxy in March 2018, people thought he was done. Just under a year earlier, in April 2017, he had suffered quite a severe knee injury while playing for Manchester United and it threatened to prematurely end his career. In typical Zlatan fashion, he recovered from the injury in seven months - returning to action much earlier than anticipated.
