New seasons start in France and Scotland
Soccer is coming back in many of the leagues throughout Europe. The English Premier League had a
rather slow start with the Charity Shield game between Manchester United and Portsmouth, which
ended 0-0 and then went to penalty kicks where Man U won easily.
In France, Lyon got off the a strong start, with Karim Benzema scoring 2 goals to lead them to a
3-0 victory over Toulouse.
