Classic YouTube | Sneaky old Lance Armstrong, Copa América magic and the first golden goal

raid this week also has a brilliant basketball player cut in the prime of excellence, Wimbledon and the robot jockeys

1) Some time classic tour to mark the start of the race this year on Saturday, Eddy Merckx Bernard Thevenet breaks (the last day that I never wear yellow) in Pra-Loup in 1975 wily Lance Armstrong in 2003, the incredible Charly Gaul, "the angel of the" Mountain, the story of the rivalry between two great Italian riders, Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali, and pure genius descendant of Fabian Cancellara. Finally, this is not the Tour, but always worth another view. not celebrate too soon ...

2) America's Cup begins Friday. The final was won by Brazil, but the goal of the tournament was a delightful chip from Messi against Mexico. Argentina are the hosts of this year and will be desperate for victory did not win the competition since 1993. Perhaps because they have players who can lose three penalties in a game. It is not surprising, Argentina and Brazil tend to win, while Uruguay has surprised the last in 1995 and Colombia in 2001 caused a sensation. It's not really a contest in which Brazil has players like Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, though. Oh and how could we forget the splendid chippy, nasty and downright brutal 1987 final between Uruguay and Chile? In the Gold Cup, meanwhile, Giovani dos Santos was a moment of magic against the United States.

3) Drazen Petrovic was a basketball genius, whose life was tragically cut short at 29 years by a car accident.

Is supposed to put in place to encourage teams to go for the win in overtime, four of the five parties that can not be resolved after 90 minutes ended up going to penalties for the parties were too scared to concede a goal murderer. Well done, FIFA. Well done! Today, however, marks the 15th anniversary of the first golden goal, puff, Oliver Bierhoff, shot in faffed by Czech Petr Kouba keeper to give the victory to Germany in the final. Also that day in 1998, David Beckham movie promotional flag effigy of trade, and in 1954, Hungary beat Uruguay in World Cup semi-finals of the largest in history. You can see the best here, here, here and here.

5) For the pure stubbornness and refusal to surrender, shot surprise, Lleyton Hewitt against Robin Soderling at Wimbledon in 2011 is hard to beat. But the carefree style, hot dogs, Andy Murray against Ivan Ljubicic gets by.

6) If only Spain had a plan B.
