Nigeria owned Argentina 4-1 yesterday in another international friendly. I should probably mention that the south americans played with reserve players….

Christian Bermudez gozo a tope su incursion en el segundo tiempo con el tri mayor y nunca dejo de correr, bajo un balon de manera magistral e intentaba recuperar el balon a toda costa, buena actuacion del chaparro para mostrar que si tiene porque estar ahi.
Giovani Dos Santos celebra el primero de sus dos goles que le dieron la victoria a Mexico sobre Nueva Zelanda.
Finally Germany won a friendly match after the World Cup, they did so by beating Uruguay in a rematch for third place in South Africa. They won 3-2 then and 2-1 today. Uruguay hasn’t defeated the germans in over 80 years.
Inter de Milan add another title to their football year by beating Palermo in the Italian Cup final.
Mexico empato a uno contra Ecuador en el primer partido de preparacion rumbo a la Copa Oro. No es el resultado que se buscaba pero si ayuda mucho a ver el funcionamiento del equipo. Mexico tuvo mucha iniciativa por las bandas pero falta de idea o fallaba el ultio toque a la hora de decidir. Se noto mucho la inexperiencia y falta de quimica entre los hombres que no estuvieron en el mundial, Sinha no se entendia muy bien ni con Torrado ni con Castro y De Nigris no se movia al espacio donde Barrera y Guardado metian los centros. El resultado es malo pero lo que deja para analizar ayudara mucho al Chepo de la Torre.
It was a final worthy of Barcelona, everything was up to the best club in the world, except the opponent. Manchester United seemed to have Barcelona figured out in the first ten minutes when the catalas only touched the ball once or twice, then it all came down. Barca started to play their football and Man United stooped doing what they were doing so well. A goal from Pedro put the devils in a tight spot, but seven minutes later Rooney equalized. The babe’s only chance was at a penalty shoot out and they knew it. Hopes came crashing down when Messi shot from outside the area and Van der Sar didn’t dive, he just kinda fell over. Villa closed the deal with a great goal and proved once again that Barcelona is the best club in the world now. This is the third champions league trophy in five years for the blaugranas.
Con mucha garra. Pumas se corona campeon del futbol mexicano ante Monarcas sin el futbol colectivo que vimos durante todo el torneo, dejaron de explotar las bandas (la buscaron pocas veces y con buenas opciones pero no insistieron) y optaron por el pelotazo que no sirve en el esquema universitario, preguntale a Bravo. Aun asi, la mezcla entre experiencia y cantera sigue dando frutos, Palencia (38) y Cortes (21) maracaron los goles con los que la maxima casa de estudios cuelga la septima estrella del escudo. No intento demeritar nada pero con el esquema defensivo que manejan la UNAM veo muy dificil el bicampeonato.
Who else? Even though Hamilton and Button tried and Webber started from the pole, there was no denying the defending champ. Sebastian Vettel took the Spanish GP and is a clear favorite to win the title very early in the season, the only one that could give him a run for his money is Lewis. The Ferraris finished with a very lazy performance.
Tis official, they have handed out the trophy and there are no take backs. Manchester United have their 19th title and 12th Premier League trophy. No one deserved it more in the league and it’s really such a joy to see players celebrate like children after all the hard work they put in, but now comes the toughest game.
