Kaka, the best gift of kings for Madrid

Go Mourinho concerned by the issue of nine. Higuain's injury raises several questions about the date of his return and Benzema still leaves doubt as to whether the Madrid striker needed, while you are still novel Morata for this company. Curious the subject of nine in the white club, or on or missing, there are never average. I remember when Del Bosque had to resort to Guti Real Madrid because he had no ram healthy, or when Morientes, recently recovered from Monaco, could not find any place after the hiring of Ronaldo and Owen. Far from the white-domed want to hire a mediocrity as Hugo Almeida, the Portuguese coach may receive the greatest gift of kings from the hand of a striker, but a fully fit perhaps for the cause Kaka.

Is debate about whether Kaka will win at the Bernabeu or sale, is rumored to force the name of Inter, especially after the arrival of Leonardo, would be helpful. After unsuccessful first year of Kaka at the Bernabeu, the way back to Italy seem an option to consider, but about Brazilian soccer move several conditions that suggest that his stay at the Bernabeu could be a success.

The most stupid blooper of the year occurred in the Greek soccer

The 2010 is leaving us and left us great moments in football, but also allowed us to see the bloopers funniest place in the playing fields. There have been many times we've seen a player lose a goal of more silly, but what would happen if they were 5 times and half the team the failure of the goal?

The most stupid blooper of the year comes from the Greek football. Veria were players of the Greek second division football 5 times those who missed their shots on goal and even the ball hits the bat 3 times.

In football it is very common to see fail goals, but rarely do we see bloopers as silly as this.

League will finally did on Sunday January 2

Some sports media websites will want to advance to the news and ventured morning, according to judicial sources alleged, the question of whether there Liga on Sunday was closer than the other does not. Street slipped because the decision of the Social Chamber of the High Court has been declared incompetent to resolve the case - what would those quoting judicial sources? -.

League will finally did on Sunday January 2. The court declared itself incompetent to rule on the injunction proposed by the SFA because they understand that there is a defect. According to the judges, the High Court could only have them try the case between 23 June and 19 July, ie between the time that the LFP presented the proposed calendar and ETF accepted. But though it is the de facto LFP which organizes the competition, the Federation is the one with the public powers delegated by the Higher Sports Council.

Chelsea put 50 million euros for Kaka

It remains uncertain the future of Brazilian football player Kaka. Inter's interest was added Chelsea would be willing to pay the sum of 50 million euros to secure the services of the player.

The Italian agent Ernesto Bronzetti, who is close to Florentino Perez, said "there is a 90 percent chance that Kaka will be in June at the Chelsea and Inter Milan." Furthermore Bronzetti himself said that Real Madrid would not be willing to part with the Brazilian for less than EUR 50 million (in 2009 the transfer had cost about 63 million).

Meanwhile, it is diluting the possibility of Kaka return to Milan, but Inter's shirt. Himself coach of the Nerazzurri, Leonardo, said it is unlikely that the player gets the club interest.

Meanwhile, Kaka finishes his set-up after a long recovery to reappear in the fields of play: probably play some minutes in the league match when Real Madrid played against Getafe.

Best of 2010: Iniesta of my life!

July 11, 2010. 22:57 hours. A ball is virtually suspended in the air for just a second, spit out by a boot, at that very moment, ready to shoot. Everything stops. Million Spanish imagine and volleyed the beating dream that passes the ball to the goalkeeper and is embedded in the network. But time goes so slow that there is still much for that. Some begin to rise from his seat, and those who were standing start to raise his arms, a beer glass on a journey that will lead inevitably to run down the table, we hear cries: Let Iniesta! Is this!

Best of 2010: Atlético back to the top

The 2010 will certainly be on the calendar of athletic history by Atletico fans. Not with the significance of the time of Louis Aragon and Garate, not as the year of the doublet in the league returned to the banks of the Manzanares, but was the year in which the athlete was lifting a title, the year the Vicente Calderon a great feeling again.

There were three because it prevented Sevilla in the cup final, but as a twist of fate they were the joy back twice. If at that time meant the double hegemony in domestic competitions, in 2010 we are going the domain was on the European continent where the titles were reluctant from the distant 1962 when the defunct Cup Winners Cup was lifted. Yes we won the Intercontinental in 74 after that final defeat against Bayern in which they had a handle of the cup in his hand. After being eliminated from the Champions League, Atlético reached the final of the Europa League after eliminating the Galatasaray, Sporting Lisbon, Valencia in a close duel and Benitez's Liverpool.

The matches on Sunday January 2 may not play

Spanish football may remove illegally in 2011, matches scheduled for Sunday, January 2 may not play. Players and coaches agree not to contest the matches in the first and second division if the clubs do not pay the debt they have with some players.

The union has asked AFE freezing of the parties should contest the January 2 due to claims that several clubs have with their players. Several players and coaches have supported the initiative of AFE.

Inter will send observers to see Kaká

According to some Italian newspapers, Inter Milan will send an observer to view the status of Brazilian Kaka in their first games of 2011. All this ahead of a possible move from Real Madrid as the box says Italian sports daily Corriere dello Sport. "

According to the magazine, Inter will have an observer in the league match between Real Madrid and Getafe on 3 January, and will be present in the party of the King's Cup to be held on January 6 against Levante both games that Kaka could return after injury that has kept him away from the fields for long.

This visit to Spain by an emissary of the Inter give clear evidence of the interest of Italian painting of the signing of Real Madrid striker, rumors were increased further with the arrival of Brazilian Leonardo, a personal friend of Kaka, as new coach Internazionale Milano.

On the other hand, a spokesman for Kaka in Italy has slipped a pass from Brazilian Inter would be no problem as once said his career would in Milan and then joined Real Madrid. So any time we can take a surprise.

Will there be game of the season on day 2?

Here's a new chapter in the tragicomedy in which it has become La Liga de las Estrellas. But maybe we should say the League of TVs. The celebration of the day 17 is in the air. At present it is unknown if played and, at least until Thursday there will be a judicial decision in this regard. And here is the crux of the matter: the AFE has led to the Audiencia Nacional lack of understanding with the LFP. Let's recap the facts:

Within the collective agreement agreed in 2008 (valid until May 2011) by the Spanish Football Association and Football League, the Christmas holiday period of the first and second players are 11 days and should be extended until January 2 , day which can be summoned to train but not play an official match. Failing to signed, the LFP scheduled time on Sunday 17 between 2 and 3 on Monday, taking away a holiday to the players without consulting with anyone other than television, that really dominates the lobby Spanish football. To make matters worse, the rights holders seek (or sought) to four different times in one day: a party at 16:00 pm (Athletic-Deportivo), two at 18:00 (Sporting-Málaga and Barcelona-Levante ), one at 20:00 h (Sevilla-Osasuna) and another at 22:00 h (Valencia-Espanyol).

Beckham will be the replacement for Simao on Atletico

Little is to open the winter market. The arrival of the new year will kick off for teams that either did homework in the summer or have to patch a setback in its workforce. It provides a quiet market due to the lack of liquidity in many clubs, however, has not been an obstacle to the arrival of a player like Afellay at Camp Nou or Baptista to Malaga which Sheikh seems to encourage the winter market. However, it appears that recruitment will cause more noise that arrive on the banks of the Manzanares, which is that David Beckham is close to joining Atletico Madrid.

If we talk about the departures, low chapter is the Portuguese winger Simao whose new destination will be the Besiktas Guti and Schuster. The output of the Luso left an important gap in the red and white template, because although Simao had lowered the yield offered years ago its significance was apparent in all mattress, not in vain was one of the starters in the final against Fulham or the Supercopa against Inter. Juanfran, Osasuna player, seemed the most feasible option, but the lack of an agreement between both clubs before the Pamplona club claims dismissed the operation, and athletic directors did not think twice about the possibility of signing English Quique's approval.

Inter Kaka spy against Getafe Levante

Kaka could be blue and black dress soon. The Brazilian player is being followed closely by Inter Milan, although the Italian club want to make their collections, "spied" on the player in matches against Getafe and the Levant to know how it is physically.

It's not news that Kaka is a player who suffers a continuing injury. In the Inter know that and that is why before any management by the player (requested by the new coach "nerazzurro" Leonardo), sent an emissary to check the health of the player in the first two games that will play in 2011.

To consider the player in good shape, it is estimated that Inter will begin the steps necessary to gain the services of Kaka in the market next winter in order to definitely buy it at the end of the season. Not having the approval of the club's emissary, the talks could be delayed until summer.

Arsenal come to Chelsea for Christmas

While in Spain we have to settle for "fun, fun, fun" of the song in England enjoy the fun, fun, fun Christmas football. Gabriel and gave us the starters with the first games which started the day of Boxing Day , where United and Spurs made you choke barnacles to Sunderland and Villa. But there was still the main attraction: an Arsenal-Chelsea who came to be the pig of the day.

Emirates Stadium before a packed, with an extensive presence of children more than usual, Arsenal beat Chelsea clearly an already accumulated eight games without a win. After a spectacular start to the leaders stood alone, that of balancing between Ancelotti have lost. Gabriel himself and we talked about this situation a month ago in the super-weekly section that brings the best of international soccer: the InterRail - that the Italian coach's position is staggering. Well, this month has not only worsened things. Today The Blues have fallen to fourth place and have 6 points behind leader Manchester United, which, to make matters worse, have a game under his belt.

2010 is the best year of Cristiano Ronaldo

We are already laying off the year and begin to get statistics for each player. The 2010 has been the best year of the career of Cristiano Ronaldo , who scored 45 goals in 48 games with the shirt of Real Madrid , and also scored 3 points with selection. Something that could not get to Manchester as it is his best year with the Red casaquilla made only 35 goals.

The Portuguese brought out all his scoring mark in 2010 it scored the highest number of goals so far in his career. His account reveals that he has 21 goals last season, 27 of the season that has been playing and said goodbye years scoring a hat-trick against Levante.

Other relevant data is CR7 year who also scored four goals in one game, this happened against Racing. He scored three hat-trick in games he played for Real Madrid against Athletic Bilbao, Valencia and Mallorca. And he nine doubles, two times against Málaga, Deportivo, Hercules, Valencia, Xerez, Getafe, Osasuna and Ajax.

Quite a magical year for the Portugal forward, who only had 13 goals in October. In addition to the numbers scorers Cristiano Ronaldo takes into account that also had 24 assists on goal to their peers, demonstrating that a player is destabilizing at any circumstances. Given these statistics what can we say?

Outtakes Christmas greeting Real Madrid

The year-end holidays are a reason to see the stars of Real Madrid giving holiday greeting usual, but the most fun thing is to see the outtakes that were made while the players were trying to record your greeting. From the coach Mourinho , past Iker Casillas, Cristiano Ronaldo to the still injured Higuain and Kaka.

The outtakes reveal so nice when that happened while filming their greetings. The different languages spoken by the Madrid players made it even funnier recording, by the confusion that arose on the road. When you view the videos we understand that no TV at all them, so hopefully it will continue to devote to football.

Good football on Boxing Day gift

Today was the traditional Christmas day in the Premier League, the number nineteen in the calendar, known as Boxing Day, "day boxes", referring to the gifts themselves of these dates. Goals and good football have brought these cases in a weekend in which we found, among other parties, like Manchester United and Tottenham continued their good season after winning all three points against Sunderland and Aston Villa respectively.

There is debate about the fact of playing on these dates. Spain is not the only league that opts for the Christmas break, because except in the islands, including Welsh-Scottish league, the rest of Europe choosing the same decision. England soccer lives differently, there is practically a religion and football, which are creators, part of the Christmas tradition: fields are filled with witnesses. They have their own rules: play at noon, a practice that is being adopted without much success in the Calcio, and reserve the game smoothly greater substance to Monday without forming a debate like the one formed here with the Barcelona-Real Madrid. Two weeks ago, played on the first day of the week, the Manchester-Arsenal, tomorrow, the Arsenal-Chelsea.

The Real Madrid Christmas greeting

José Mourinho, Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos and Florentino Perez were in charge of giving a holiday greeting to the fans of Real Madrid and expressed his best wishes for 2011. "That's dreams come true Real Madrid" were the words of the President of the Institution merengue, promising that this template will get titles next year.

Mourinho for his part expressed his desire to go to Cibeles: "Reaching for having won titles Cibeles to the work and dedication is what I wish, knowing that is part of the tradition Madrid take the city to celebrate their achievements. He noted that more than a few wins Madrid plans to point to something else: "I would like the Real Madrid not only win once, but you start a winning cycle," he said.

On the other hand the captain Iker Casillas said towards the goals that has the team: "We are a young and cheerful, the key to success is the bond that exists in the dressing room" His words make absolutely clear that the rumors about the clashes that have to Cristiano Ronaldo on false and on the contrary the environment we live off the court is one of friendship.

The other master of Madrid, Sergio Ramos, put more poetic touch to the Christmas celebrations and said he imagines magical moments for 2011. "I see that we won the Tenth and the entire staff is gathered around the Cup in the middle of the Bernabeu" she said, describing their dreams for 2011.

In this way the most important figures of the Real Madrid left their wishes for the club and the fans in 2011. We join them to wish the team name of blogyfutbol.com a MERRY CHRISTMAS! We have the joy of feeling in our hearts the love of the little baby in Bethlehem.

Arrivederci, Rafa

It was an open secret. The latter was revealed after the crossing of statements between Rafa Benitez and his 'boss', Massimo Moratti. Nobody likes to be left in evidence, except when someone makes you pay. The Spanish coach is history at Inter Milan. Six months is hardly what has gone on her relationship with the Italian champions lost the European Super Cup against Atletico Madrid but who managed the Italian Super Cup and a few days ago, the Club World Cup his last title, now confirmed, their last game on the bench neroazzurro.

The former Liverpool coach this summer accepted a complicated amendment: change in the position to Jose Mourinho after the best season ever of the Italian club. We endorse a curriculum like no other, perfect to keep writing new glorious pages in the Inter. A project with such ambition should be set to something who is going to carry out required. And Moratti, a lavish series, which has been spent in recent years has been everything and more to make a squad of champions Inter, said enough. Naturally, Benitez did not sit well the decision not to scratch the pocket and the end of the story is known.

Blatter justified elections as Russia and Qatar World Cup venues

Joseph Blatter justified his election as Russia and Qatar as the world headquarters of the 2018 and 2022. "It was a decision to make money," says the president of FIFA.

It is already known for some time: 2018 and 2022 will be two venues world with little football tradition. Russia and Qatar will host the World Cup and finding justifications for these choices have to listen to the voice of Blatter who said that in the designation of the sites there were questions of money involved.

"We have taken landmark decisions in terms of geopolitics sports. World Cup have moved into new territories. The 2018, will go to Eastern Europe, the vast Russia. 2022, go to the Middle East, Qatar, the Arab world. The World Cup is going to explore other cultures in other regions, and I can only rejoice at this "said the Swiss.

"We had to promote football and looking for sponsors, at that time had not a penny. [...] When I was appointed President of FIFA, we decided to go to Asia. Then I had to go to Africa, and is what we did. It is therefore normal that we continue on that line now and we move to new territories, "added Blatter.

After all, Blatter argued the choice of venues "exotic" as a more popular way to make the sport more popular around the world and leaving aside the speculation that hold that designation of nations, Russia and Qatar as organizers of the world due to an economic issue.

He returned to the Bernabeu football

Could not be better news for the white team after such a tumultuous days: to talk about football, goal, ball, players. Real Madrid gave a basket of Christmas as a rout by eight goals to nil in the first leg of second round of the Copa del Rey against a set of first, the Levant, which today showed no such condition. They were players Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema, both authors of three goals. The two remaining work Özil and Pedro León.

Little analysis can be performed from the game today. Madrid has been lord and master of the game during the ninety minutes against an opponent that has not been able to discuss the supremacy of the local team at any time. It was not until minute 22 when Casillas intervene for the first time in a shot of Granot, and it was just a warning because the goalkeeper was now one of the most placid nights.

Balotelli gets the Golden Boy Award

The Italian striker Mario Balotelli has been awarded yesterday with the Golden Boy award for best European soccer player under 21. In a list of three players, the controversial player of Manchester City has been imposed on De Gea, Atletico Madrid goalkeeper and who was a favorite for a server, and the Arsenal midfielder, Wilshere.

But before going into details it should clarify some points about this award. Is given to players under 21 years, so this year only entered the competition the players born after 1990. Thus, outstanding young players like Gareth Bale, Alexandre Pato, who was last year's winner, "Jovetic, Müller, Ander Herrera and Alvaro Dominguez, to name a few examples, not vying for the award because he was born in 1989 and Özil, Chicharito , Coentrao or Busquets, 88.

This should be distinguished Bravo Award Trophy. The Golden Boy has been awarded since 2003, when Van der Vaart was the first winner. Belongs to the Italian sports daily Tuttosport based on the vote of 30 sports journalists from across Europe and delivered on these dates, which has the calendar year.

Both awards are given to any player, regardless of their origin, to compete in a European league. In recent years, the Golden Boy has gained in importance to the Bravo Trophy and is considered the Golden Ball of young players.

Day of draws in the Copa del Rey

Day to pure draw in the Copa del Rey. The first leg of the second round of the Copa del Rey had equality as a common denominator: Barcelona and Athletic goals were not marked, like Valencia and Villarreal. Cordoba Deportivo equalized one.

Not the Dream Team and Pep striker Llorente power could open the scoring in Barcelona Athletic. Guardiola course, Villa and Messi saved for the second time and the locals did not have their leading scorer who is low due to injury. The game ended scoreless thanks to the lack of marksmanship and orderly culés rojiblanca defense.

Meanwhile, at the Mestalla, the premises and could not beat Villarreal goals. The whole area Emery constantly besieged by visitors but revenue on the scoreboard.

Finally, Cordoba and Deportivo drew, but at least with goals. Riki's penalty opened the scoring for the visitors after 17 minutes and Pepe Diaz put the final equality above 70. The last 20 minutes were played under a torrential rain that conditioned the normal play.

For today's meetings are expected between Betis - Getafe Athletic - Espanyol, Sevilla - Malaga, Almeria - Mallorca and Real Madrid - Levante.

Spanish football as a reality show

Like a house set in the mountains far from the madding crowd, with a watchful eye attentive to detail and be as trivial debate. Two teams elected to enter the house and the rest were allowed to enter the weekend as an excuse to call our league championship and kept the ball in the trunk to give it some kick a couple of times a week for press gossip and more. The football we played.

Spain is different, see if it is. The vast majority of the country has a choice: white or Barca. Like football, but like most positioned on either side and go into battle armed with his own arguments to defend and defeat the opponent, the ball is not important. Gradually, the football is losing prominence and every gesture, every word, every issue becomes a dimension-sporting unlikely for which, at last, after all, no longer a sport. Like the sickness and everything is a matter of analysis and debate for something are the only country where Belén Esteban would be the queen of television, because we are different.

The havoc caused Mourinho to Florentino and Valdano

Jose Mourinho took time away from the limelight, perhaps not much, but so has spoiled us, a day without hearing him complain about something or someone to send a recadito is strange to us as if we are missing something. His time of silence began, coincidences of life, a day after taking a hand in the Camp Nou.

The meeting last weekend against Sevilla at the Bernabeu will be remembered for things that have nothing to do with football merely in fact, the match itself was very ugly. The most notable of what happened in the field was the miserable performance of the referee Clos Gomez and his assistants, a real potpourri of mistakes and untimely compensanciones. The duel was heated until both benches came to face to the point that an exacerbated Silvino Louro, goalkeeping coach that always accompanies Portuguese Mourinho, eventually pulling to the ground field officer septuagenarian Real Madrid, Agustín Herrerín, a whole institution in the White House.

Maradona returns to talk about Bilardon and Grondona

Diego Maradona reloaded from the main references of the Argentine Football Association (AFA). The former coach said Grondona albiceleste is "gaga" and Bilardo is a wimp. "

Maradona returned to speak to the media in Argentina and came to express their views on the AFA's decision not to renew the link as a coach. Again pointed the guns towards the national team director, Carlos Salvador Bilardo, and to the president of the AFA, Julio Grondona.

Sporting Deportivo and tied to impotence

The Sporting sports have become one of the best footballing celebrations of our league. Gijon fans marked with an X on the match in A Coruña and prepare a movement that today is unmatched in Spain: 6,000 rojiblancos took to the streets of the City Herculina this weekend but, as before, will give beef between the most radical. A Coruña usually assume that anyone in our city feel welcome and it is certain that the Mareona deserve no less.

And focused on the match, Espanyol seareiros beheld the best first half hour of Depor in a long time. With a 5-4-1 but with Valeron holder, pulled premises moving the ball with pace, they were very mobile and created chances, which might be the best thirty minutes Riazor have seen in a long time. The fans Deportivo, who perfectly digested the change of menu has been a few years now, was glad to meet with barnacles where he hoped to squid.

Three points, character and Nothingness

It was a bad match. This is the first and simple summary that I can think of yesterday's match between Real Madrid and Sevilla ended with victory for the meringues by one goal to nil, the work of Di Maria with progressive capital importance on this computer. The party was raised by both sides as a battle where soccer was defeated, brawl where Madrid emerged victorious on the basis of punch and know how to suffer in certain moments where the brush is reserved for better times.

Sevilla is not a good time. It did not seem so few days ago when the Sanchez Pizjuan lived a magical night to climb and needed a hard game against Borussia Dortmund, German leader, who gave the pass to the Europa League knockout. But this team is without direction, the effect Manzano has not yet paid off, Navas is, yesterday was not Kanoute, key to the Teutons, as vital players before Luis Fabiano and Palop are in very bad shape, midfield generates no football and the defense does not hold water. Although it had some to unbalance the draw, but neither Negredo appears to be an excellent time.

Rafa Benitez would have one foot out of Inter

What a way to celebrate the World Club collection by the Inter president, Massimo Moratti, plan to move from his position as manager Rafael Benitez for some statements it considers "inappropriate."

Rafa Benitez is about to become history at Inter Milan. When Mourinho's successor has been exhausted credit from the club's board, despite the recent acquisition of Club World.

Moratti and was thinking of relieving their functions to the former Liverpool and inappropriate considering the sayings of Spanish seeking respect and support for the signings he requested. Do not help the results in Serie A, Inter league you have dominated the last four years, but now shows the whole of Milan in seventh place, 13 points behind (AC Milan) and out of positions European Cups. Luciano Spalletti and Leonardo are candidates to replace Spanish.

Inter: a world champion cracked

Rarely had talked so little about the impact that can produce win the World Cup. This is a competition without glitz, which alone enjoys the team is usually less involved name and normally the European and South American champions start with the favorite band. A tournament got to shoehorn in a calendar brimming with games and if it serves to open windows, you can leave more than a silly-faced elimination if improvised.

Inter Milan, who won all last season and therefore the number one candidate to claim victory, was measured in the final Mazembe, the only African team that has snuck over the final story this tournament and it was announced, among other things, the curious conclusion of their goalkeeper's heroics KIDI when they managed to eliminate Brazil in the semifinals International. The Congolese, African Champions League champions, they wanted to make clear neroazzurro tricampeón.

Raul Dreimal

Hundreds of miles separate the German city of Gelsenkirchen in Madrid. Until recently, nothing in the head of Raul Gonzalez was expected to be with a blue elastic in the Bundesliga where he held the goals that throughout his professional life was celebrated with the white of Real Madrid. As everything has a beginning and an end, the Real Madrid captain bundled the mat and went towards a country and a city that welcomed him like a charm. Where targets were not small feat, and where, good at first, things were twisted. Schalke 04 was, in the words of '7 ', the club became harder to sign him after his farewell to the team known of his life. He also said at the time that if it had continued in Chamartin insurance it has played. Seeing the above need Mourinho, his statement is preposterous, but looking at the basics and even has become imperative in Gelsenkirchen, is likely to have regretted not gamble in the Bundesliga.

And that, despite the season on the wrong foot. Directed by Felix Magath, the start was not the dream. Came to occupy the relegation zone, in contrast to its good performance in the Champions League, which gained access to the knockout stages and which will face Valencia. Next to another newcomer to our championship as a jury, one that has earned the confidence of the coach, Raul took a position in an attack that inspires confidence with two other Peruvian Farfán cazagoles like Huntelaar or Dutch. So, the premiere was painful after falling at home against Hamburg. The second day, at home, was surprisingly beaten by Hannover 96. And so, defeat after defeat until the fifth, which was imposed at Freiburg in enemy territory and the minimum (1-2). But the victory did not result in reaction and as she came, stalked the relegation zone.

Pep Guardiola and Mauricio Pochettino, parallel lives

The 'Parallel Lives' is the best-known work of the historian Plutarch, in it, the last of the great writers of the Hellenistic period, provides a series of comparisons between a Greek and a Roman character, of which perhaps the best known is that of Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. If the good of Plutarch were alive now and would like to find football biographical subject sure to spend a Guardiola parallel lives and Mauricio Pochettino.

Each of the protagonists of our story played in one of the two clubs of Barcelona and set up trophies to be key players in their teams. Whether one or the other were those players who spend the game talking, making extension of coach on the lawn, putting his teammates, correcting errors, raising tempers. Seeing them on the pitch already showing ways to coach, so that nobody could be surprised that, as concluded their careers as a professional player is put on the card drawn coach.

Cornella-El Prat succumbs to the Empire Blaugrana

An ambush if discovered and properly countered, with interest paid and the evil sought

Vegetius, Roman writer, fourth century

Classic a few weeks ago was presented as the more equal in recent years and we all know how it ended . This week, we prefaced the Barcelona derby as the most matched in a long time, a definition far removed from reality. The extraordinary thing about the match between RCD Espanyol and FC Barcelona last night was that the parakeets greeted their neighbors remain in positions of Champions, so it was a summit meeting, but said that was matched as Rattan is the League, was more a matter of desire than reality.

Claiming that a team has been good when it lost 1-5 at home may seem so unreal to see who it will tempt some derision. But the truth is that the squad gave Mauricio Pochettino face at all times and follow the script that led him to become the surprise team of the league start, but this boat in a state of grace is a roller that rolls over you with so naturally that has to defeat a strange hint of sweetness. Marquez recovered to shore up the midfield, Espanyol unbeaten planted in field with a clear plan: advancing lines, narrow spaces, block play and look inside the Barça recoveries in advanced positions.

Iker Casillas: "Cristiano Ronaldo and I get along well"

After tremendous controversy for allegedly arming Sara Carbonero statements regarding the relationship between Iker Casillas and Cristiano Ronaldo, goalkeeper and captain of Real Madrid came forward to clarify everything and said: "Cristiano and I get along very well. He seems a fantastic lad and cheerful ", throwing out all the rumors that it had been wrong.

Regarding rumors Casillas emphasized that these are people who want to create division in the club merengue: "There are people who want to create controversy and bad atmosphere in the dressing room, but the opposite is true." And he wanted to close the topic because do not like walking involved in nonsense rumors: "I do not know if they deal with, but you have to turn the page and leave us nonsense" sentenced, settling any doubts.

The press took the opportunity to ask about who you think is the best player in the world, to which he replied without a fuss saying that Messi is currently the Golden Ball , and last year it was Cristiano Ronaldo. But when they tried to wrest the name of the best right now, said he is not responsible for giving the award.

Already known that Real Madrid will face Olympique Lyon in the knockout stages of the Champions, Iker stressed that this is a very serious rival: "Last year gave us and were eliminated by favorites, so you have to give her much respect. " No doubt the slogan as captain will give the group is to overcome the barrier posed by eighths and remove the nail from the tough loss last edition.

Whimsical round draw in Champions

The hype European Champions League has been driven by curiosity and has given us for crossing knockout fighting each more rich in nuances. A priori, in sporting terms has been gracious to the three Spanish teams as the three rivals were not the most complicated, and potentially play in luck. The first leg will be played between February 15-16 and 22-23, and return between 8-9 and March 15-16.

Olympique Lyonnais - Real Madrid CF

Old ghosts fly over the Santiago Bernabeu reprinted the second round last year. The matter does not stop there, and that Lyon is without doubt the black sheep of the white team in the last five years Europe: six games divided between mini-leagues and playoffs with three losses result and three draws. With talented and irregular Gourcuff as reference and Bastos, Pjanic and Lisandro as outstanding players, the French club is no longer the team that dominated with an iron hand the French championship for seven consecutive seasons, however, paradoxically it was last year when they reached highest elevation in Europe with the semifinals.

Atletico Madrid knocked out of the Europa League

Atletico Madrid are dismissed early from Europe League. The set of Quique Sanchez Flores drew against Bayer Leverkusen and stands no chance of defending the title won last season.

Atletico Madrid fails the request of groups in the European League. Quique all tied 1 to 1 against Bayer Leverkusen and is out of the tournament he won earlier this year. The game was tied until the final stretch in which Helmes opened the scoring for the hosts at 70 and Fran Merida equalized for the visitors to 72. Following the summary of the meeting.

The point is not reached, with two wins, two draws and two defeats, Atletico had eight points and finished third in Group B of the Europa League, below Aris Salonika, who had 10 points and Bayer Leverkusen, which itself had 12 .

The anonymous referee and his victory

Go to the field without a shield to defend nor a result of fighting, its mission is to enforce the rules that sheriff in the Wild West where gunslingers make its own law. The players come each week to the pitch knowing that they will offer their encouragement throats in pursuit of victory, two hobbies split with the same goal victory, but of all he is alone, no one will support his work and the best cases go unnoticed, since it will be their victory.

Twenty-two players will be surrounded whose tool is the ball while his is a whistle that blows when you think something was not right, bringing perhaps the discomfort on one side and the approval of another. He knows that rarely will all conform and for ninety minutes will be viewed minutely each of their decisions. Just a few tenths of a second has to decide what may be the decisive move of the game, that play that we sometimes see two or three times repeated in the Moviola, slow motion without reaching a conclusion illuminating.

Guardiola would choose his salary to stay in Barcelona

Pep seems to be around for a while in Barcelona. Blaugrana club president, Sandro Rosell said he can not imagine the team's future without the current coach. For this is already in talks with Guardiola to renew their bond with the club expires at the end of the season.

Blank check for Pep Guardiola. Sandro Rosell wants to keep Guardiola as coach throughout his tenure as president of Futbol Club Barcelona and it's already moving heaven and earth so that the coach remains in his post at the end of June 2011 .

And there are more than tempting to Pep: while and have set the foundations of the contract rests with the coach put the figure salary and the length of the link. It is estimated that in early 2011 will make public the final terms of the new contract Guardiola.

FIFA Golden Ball Survey 2010: Results

And I'll comment the results, some of them seem very curious, we hope that you too mostréis us your opinion.

QUESTION No. 1

Messi will never play in Madrid

This is a statement made by the Argentine star's father: "My son never played at Real Madrid , there is no possibility. " A statement that ruled any glimmer of doubt, if ever occur to Florentino and company try to buy the flea to view the casaquilla merengue.

Jorge Messi out of the way to respond to rumors that if your child has not shone in Barcelona, had passed away at Real Madrid. Be strongly said, "Those rumors are false, because Leo always wanted to play for Barca and their ultimate dream has been successful here"

Ten years after the arrival of the flea to Barcelona, we have more clear than ever that Lionel Messi is undoubtedly culé and it will be for ever and ever ... or at least until there is a good deal.

Iker Casillas and Diego Forlan picked up the Golden Glove and Golden Ball

Real Oviedo faces a future filled with doubt

We all keep with affection those first games on TV, we saw the first players kicking a ball, that ball would become one of our great passions. They were great, as in my case Ronaldo with his goals and his superhuman power, Round with its elegance or Laudrup with his passing, but there were also lesser-known but nevertheless keep in a corner of our memory as the deeds of the Compostela Numancia first in Cup or one of the regulars in the first division teams in those years was the Real Oviedo, whose clash with Sporting Gijon was one of the most historic was the Spanish league.

Lacatus, Bango, Berto, Mora, Carlos Muñoz, Oli, Armando, Jankovic, Jerk, Seven, Christopher ... recognizable names, most of them international, sure many of you remember and that were an important part of that Oviedo-nineties . I remember especially the Oviedo Antic and that of Irureta, who played the UEFA when it meant something really important, I caught too young. With a midfield consisting of Jokanovic and Prosinecki, who showed his best version in the league as Oviedo, playing attractive football. Later would come the Dely Valdes, Paulo Bento, the sadly deceased or Onopka Dubovsky, a stronghold of the last stage first.

In the end, still Jota Jota López River

First he said no, now says yes. Juan Jose Lopez will continue to lead River Plate as trainer for the beginning of 2011. The coach had assumed the interim, thanks to good results will continue in his post.

Jota Jota López achieved its goal: River left out of the promotion at the end of the tournament by getting 13 of 18 points in beating the game and Boca, the eternal rival. So, Daniel Passarella, millionaire president of the institution decides to renew their confidence in him in 2011 will remain coach of the club Núñez.

"Tomorrow we get together (with Passarella) to plan the preseason. The results helped and supported players. It gives us great peace of mind to continue working with these players who are the real protagonists, "said Lopez himself in an interview with a radio.

Signed contract for one year and intends to continue with the same coaching staff, although that will be defined at the meeting with Passarella.

Ibrahimovic, possibly the most profitable signing

Another. In both marked against Bologna last weekend, Ibrahimovic added another goal to its short but successful career as AC Milan. In just three months, Ibra has become the benchmark of Milan who longs to recover the hegemony transalpina after five years in office interest. In Milanello smile again after the decline of the stage Ancelotti and the difficult transition to Leonardo, and the Swede is the undisputed star of the Rossoneri revival. I do not go so far as to say that the former is the signing of Barcelona's most profitable last European market.

AC Milan now leads the overall lead with 36 points and opened at a distance of six points on the chase. Ibrahimovic has scored nine goals so far in the league after 16 rounds played and four in the Champions League. In total, 13 goals in 21 matches, but to say that the importance of the front is limited to the goals is to stay very short. A goals scored must be added six assists and, above all, what it means for Milan Ibrahimovic. He is the axis around which revolves all around Milan, the offensive weight rests on his boots and he alone is responsible for instilling fear in the opposing defense.

His game goes beyond the typical striker: Allegri granted complete freedom of movement and Ibrahimovic as dropping a banda grateful if needed, coming from the second line if you see that is the best option and partnering if the game you need to. If the Swede has the ball not be surprised to see him dragging a few defenses, leaving holes for his teammates, something that Robinho is thanked in the form of goals.

The Interrail: Students Opening up the

When embarking on a week The Interrail to see what would bake in foreign leagues we were surprised to see that part of the trip would coincide with two familiar faces: those of Simao and Manuel Fernandes heading to Istanbul where they will begin a new adventure in the ranks of erratic Besiktas where old militant known as Guti or other former Portuguese League as Quaresma, all coached by Bernd Schuster.

They will join fellow Luso Hugo Almeida, and former Werder contract ending in June and had been rumored that a possible interest of Real Madrid. A good striker, but not for a first class club. Simao contract concluded by the end of the season with Atletico Madrid after a good record at the Calderon and, realizing it would not renew with Atletico, has decided to undertake the journey Turkish. Osasuna Juanfran rings as a substitute, a good choice. Fernandes's case is different, it will yield to the Valencia season finale against the few opportunities enjoyed by the midfield, keeping the team an option to purchase Ottoman end of the season. Uneconomic has left the signing of Fernandes to Valencia, which once took about fifteen million from Benfica.

Operation Greyhound: possible connection with the Spanish national team players?

Scandal has often armed in the world of Spanish sport from the so-called Operation Greyhound has laid bare a network of doping that relates primarily to several athletes, but also implicated athletes from other disciplines. The latest case could involve World's champions.

It happens that as a result of Operation Greyhound, Dr. Eufemiano Fuentes was arrested and spent the last hours in a common cell with another offender who was interviewed on departure and on Sources said: "We have said that if he spoke, we would not European or World Cup or "opening the possibility that in doping cases that have surfaced in recent days also are involved players from Spanish football.

The s replies to these comments were swift and Xavi Hernandez himself said that "in football ince we can say that there is any kind of doping, we won the World Cup with all the certainty of not doping."

Barça futuristic new exhibit

There are many ways to win a football match of FC Barcelona and is a marvel. The Royal Society came, saw and lost, could do more to put up a shower before the game that nobody knows what to do. A shock of seeing a show after another might be a fan, culé whether or not end up falling into the trap of starting to see what happened yesterday as normal. And it is not: the way Barça plays, dominating, fun, crush and win is something special, a whole lot to the viewer's eyes.

The party does not say much: the ship passed over txuri urdin team with goals of its four main attackers, repeating a certain Messi already has 17 in 15 games. In the last seven games the Blaugrana added 32 goals for and 2 against. And with 40 of 45 points possible is the best team ever in the 15 th day. But the numbers say it all.

Tevez, Rooney and wet paper contracts

And I honestly can not believe anything you say or want the players. Just recently we saw the saga of Rooney to Manchester United, a relationship that seemed irreparable and that the English player ever not be reconciled with Ferguson. His departure seemed imminent club and many clubs came to the fore interested in the striker. However, shortly after the Manchester announced the renewal and subsequent growth of wages from the star. Mission accomplished, then. Now is the City, one of the teams that just were interested in Rooney, Tevez who has in his figure with the intention to leave the club beyond repair.

It is even said that Tevez could leave the football do not agree to his departure from the club, something the player himself has denied. Do not be the first time since a few months ago ensured that football would be proclaimed champion if Argentina world. It has also shown some time its intention to withdraw before the 30-currently has 26 - tired and retired from professional football at Boca Juniors, but now signature "that occur within a long time."

Estudiantes de La Plata in Argentina is devoted champion

Estudiantes de La Plata champion screams again. The set of Alejandro Sabella won the 2010 Apertura title in Argentina after beating 2 to 0 to Arsenal de Sarandi.

The lion is the champion again. As in 2006, the La Plata re-consecrated as the best Argentine football again with Juan Sebastian Veron as the main reference.

The match was even and only 28 minutes of second half, the locals getting the goal that allowed them to avoid the tiebreaker before Velez (who at that time expired to Racing by 2 to 0 with goals from Martinez and Moralez) Hernán Rodrigo López changing one center goal. At the end, Lopez returned to score again on its head.

It is the fifth tournament title in Argentina for Estudiantes de La Plata. Since the return of the team Veron is the third title won in addition to the 2006 tournament and the Libertadores Cup 2009.

Like the cat and mouse

The league has that sad feeling of deja vu in every game they play big, undeniable victory for them and resignation to others. Few times the maximum is violated, and the times in which Real Madrid and Barcelona were paths opportunities to shine in the eyes of the public are diluted in games without a story where the rivals can not but surrender to the evidence in the form superiority. Another league. If Real Madrid went hunting with cats to La Romareda in search of points for the box, Zaragoza was just a mouse in the clutches Real Madrid. Story had a little party for 80 minutes was by and for the Madrid final result of 1-3 in favor of whites.

And is that the first ten minutes were thrust out in search of a possible surprise Madrid sleepy, but it was watered down in 14 minutes, the first for Real, Özil scored the first after good attendance and hollow Marcelo Zaragoza huge on defense. The German is in his line: he speaks little, but when it does is to say something.

Barca rent his shirt to Qatar for 165 million

A few days ago he denounced in a post how Qatar has bought the 2022 FIFA World Cup , an investment rather than to grow a passion for the ball between one million and a half of local people, will examine the alleged new image of the emirate . But it has not been there, because the Qatari government has been seeking to increase its outreach campaign by purchasing advertising space on the shirt of one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Until now the only advertising that carried the club on his shirt was to Unicef, a nonprofit agreement that, indeed, contemplated that the Catalan club and donate one million euros a year through the United Nations Fund for Children . So, now for the first time in history, FC Barcelona rent ad space on his shirt, through which levied a whopping 165 million euros at 30 kilos per year plus 15 for the remainder of this course, to carry the logo of the Qatar Foundation.

Real Madrid goalkeeper broke his jaw in the Champions League

The second goalkeeper of Real Madrid Jerzy Dudek broke his jaw in the match where he faced the white box at Auxerre for the sixth round of the group stage of Champions, which will leave at least six weeks out of the fields game.

The Polish goalkeeper, played on Wednesday, replacing the customary owner and captain Iker Casillas, and a few minutes after completing the first part of the game the goalkeeper came out to clear a ball and collided heavily with the French Roy Contout, leaving him in a sense .

With clear signs of pain, Dudek had to retire from the field and then confirm the club's official medical report that their discomfort was due to "non-displaced fracture mandibular subcondylar" but fortunately the player will not have to undergo surgery. Assess their evolutionary control in the next 7 days and if all goes well, would be returning to the court between 4 and 6 weeks.
