Happy Friday! Make sure your weekend comes that little bit quicker by watching today's fab football vids.

1) A few weeks back we brought you some video of James Milner whacking a ball against the crossbar in an attempt to flog Aston Villa season tickets. As if that wasn't own goal enough for the club's marketing department, the next instalment in the campaign features Ashley Young, another player who might well be playing for someone else when you take your seat at Villa Park for the new season...

2) Poor the Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Seemingly surplus to requirements at Barca and reportedly offered around to all and sundry in the summer, this is a footballer badly in need of a hug. So how nice of a pitch invader to do just that during Barcelona's friendly with Norwegian side Valarenga this week.

3) Now we know the World Cup seems like it happened a million years ago, but we thought this video was too good not to share. Only the stoniest of hearts could fail to be warmed by this compilation of the staff of Spanish newspaper Marca watching their team win the big one. And if England ever repeat the feat, we promise to do something similar at MirrorFootball. Except ours will be filmed in the pub, obviously.
