To keep it short and inform fast:
Chelsea still on top of its game. Scolari’s squad beat AS Roma with a nice header by Terry 13 minutes to the end. Chelsea tops group A, like a cherry (a blue one).
Manchester had no problems winning the match against Celtic at home, 3 - 0. Goals from Berbatov [...]

We have to all agree that moving to LA Galaxy wasn’t the best move David Beckham has performed. The guy got all the pressure and sold all the jerseys, but when it came down to football, MLS is definitely not a good playing ground for someone like Becks. I guess no one will really bring [...]

Yesterday, the futsal World Cup title went back to it’s home. Brazil beat long time rivals Spain on penalties after a 2 - 2 tie. Spain took the title on the past 2 World Cups so it was about time Brazil stepped up to bring the title back to it’s hood! Not only that but [...]

Basile is out. Argentina is trying to find someone to fix Basile’s World Cup Qualifiers mess. The ex-boss quit after the loss to Chile. Argentina only won one match, tied four and lost one. So things are not really jolly sunshiny for los hermanos even though they hold the third spot on the qualifiers.
Who’s next? [...]

It was too good to be true. Truth be told (for the 100th time): Dunga is not a good boss, not even close to it. Brazil tied 0-0 today with Colombia, at home, in Maracanã. It is the 3rd consecutive home match that ends up in frustration for us, Brazilians. When things are fine, like [...]

I read an interesting article today at The Sun (i know! The Sun!). Steven Howard talking about the WAGs and England’s situation back in the 2006 World Cup. Read full article here.
As ever, no expense was spared to make the players and their WAGs feel at home.
Had England’s footballers matched this conspicuous consumption with equally [...]

He is only 26. But Kaká has joined football stars like Pelé, Zico, Ronaldo, Marta and many other great ones. He has left a footmark in Maracanã’s hall of fame. Well done. Well deserved.

It feels good to see Brazil back. Today’s match against Venezuela for the World Cup Qualifiers brought a squad who gave fans confidence and peace of mind. Brazil easily won 4 x 0 killing all talk that the Venezuelans were changing history (Brazil lost its first match ever to the Venezuela in Boston this past [...]

I guess Raymond Domenech is keeping his job a little longer. France tied 2×2 with Romania thanks to Ribery and the young Gourcuff. Greece got the job well done with a glorious goal from Katsoyranis (Roberto Carlos style). Here are the goals:
