Soccer sportscaster Kate Abdo won’t be stretching for handshakes or fist bumps for the foreseeable future after suffering an insane wardrobe malfunction on live television this Wednesday.

Kate, who works as a Champions League broadcaster for CBS Sports, has had some notable and viral moments in her coverage of European soccer, including after last season’s final, when she offered her hand to Khabib Nurmagomedov and he refused to take it.

It appears she didn’t learn her lesson then, but it’s likely that she’s learned it now after what happened on Wednesday.

Kate Abdo Calls For Help After Her Dress Falls Apart Live On Air

Kate was on the halftime show alongside colleagues Thierry Henry, Jamie Carragher, and Micah Richards. Former USMNT star Clint Dempsey, who sometimes comes on as a guest, also joined the show, and it didn’t take more than a few seconds for things to liven up.

Dempsey dapped the fellas up and extended a fist to Abdo for a bump, but her dress wasn’t designed with that sort of oblique movement in mind, as it came apart in her armpit area while she leaned over for the pound.

She immediately covered it up, calling for a woman named Emily, whom we assume takes care of the team’s wardrobe while trying to carry on with the job. Of course, the guys were not accommodating.

You can see the mishap in the video below:

As you might expect, the internet loved this.

“They’re not gonna let her live this down regardless, but can you imagine if she had a nip slip live on air?” someone commented.

“wtf is this digital abomination?” another asked.

“Brest was about to appear,” joked a third, referencing the Stade Brest joke that has been a thing on the show for a while now.


“And not one of them jumped up to offer Kate their jacket. 😂😂😂😂,” someone observed.

Kate Abdo has been at this since 2020, and her chemistry with the rest of the crew has made the show a favorite among soccer fans, which they continue to hype as their version of ‘Inside the NBA’.

She’s going to need Emily a lot closer in future.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.


From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
