Giuseppe Rossi took his tally to nine goals in the Spanish Primera Liga tonight with a superb
strike against league leaders Real Madrid.
The 20-year-old American-born Italian footballer showed the speed of mind and guile to shift the
ball past former World Football of the Year, Fabio Cannavaro in an instant before unleashing a
rasping left-foot shot past arguably the finest goalkeeper on the planet, Iker Casillas.
Sergio Aguero scored two and Juan Roman Riquelme added a third from the spot after Aguero had
been felled.Brazil then managed to end the game in total despair by having Lucas and Neves sent off
and ending the game with 9 men - 3 goals down.
Olympics Football Argentina vs Brazil Highlights
How exactly could an Argentine fan believe that it was his country's U23 team versus the United
States in Giants Stadium? Sure, Sosa, Gago, Messi and Aguero are u23 eligible, but the majority of
the squad that played that day was not.
Other than that quibble, it's an interesting look at how U.S.

US 0-0 Argentina
Let's see, amazing showing by a goalkeeper, horrible calls from the ref, an engaged, pro-USA crowd and Mastroeni walks off with a red, if only Brian McBride showed up bleeding from his face, it would have been World Cup 2006 against Italy all over again.
Sunday night was a great night for the US men as they played their best match since 2006 in front of almost 80,000 passionate fans.
Morning all. You know when you sleep for like a pretty long time and you really shouldn't be tired
but you're tired all the same? That's how I am right now. I'm also in the mood to eat some Subway,
but that's another story entirely.
So on to the news. What news you might say? Well it seems Sergio "El Kun" Aguero has been
linked with Arsenal after some quotes from his agent.
As good as he's been, this could finally be Kun Aguero's "breakout" year. Freshly 20, he
was the third leading scorer in La Liga last year. Won the Gold Medal at the Olympics with
Argentina this summer as well, scoring two against eternal rivals Brazil in the process. Now he's
got 3 Champions League goals [.
Argentine wonderkid Sergio Aguero is on the wish list of big spenders Manchester City, according to
reports that emerged last week. But it seems that his current club, Spanish giants Atletico Madrid,
have denied any such link-ups. An Atletico Madrid spokesperson has emphasised that they have no bid
from Manchester City .
Wow. So thats what it feels like when nearly 79,000 rabid soccer fans are put under one roof? Amazing.
MAJOR props to Sams Army and ESC, which showed up this game in a major way - especially the final 15 minutes. Somehow, a section of 4,000 max outsang the almighty biceleste fans when it counted most.
Why not? I was late to my computer, but no one has scored yet.

Martin Taylor shocks Arsenal and Croatia
Arsenal's Eduardo da Silva saw his great season cut short as he was cynically mowed down by
Birmingham's Martin Taylor on Saturday. The Brazilian's left fibula snapped under Taylor's
irresponsible tackle and doctors say that the Gunner, operated the same evening, will be out of
action between five and eight months.
Well, the day I have been waiting for is finally here.
USA v. ARGENTINA
My favorite team (#1 - USA) and my favorite team (#1A - Argentina) will be fielding their top
squads against each other.
The only other time I witnessed a US / Argentina match was at RFK in DC, where the US came out
on top of a 2nd squad Argie team.
The discussion before the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing began largely centered around Brazil's
quest for their first ever Olympic title. The question of how the Olympic gold medal could escape
the most successful and internationally recognised football nation of all time was one which was
frequently asked in the build-up to the games, and one which would often baffle.
Morning all. Last day of 2008 has come and I'm still alive and if you're reading this so are you so
congratulations on making it through another year. Yesterday I ran down the first half of our
January transfer preview for Arsenal and today I'm going to finish that off with the second half of
who we should buy and maybe even a little who we should sell.
As you'll by now be aware, last weekend was a busy time where the 2010 World Cup qualifiers were
concerned. On Sunday we told you about the latest action in Europe - today we fill you in with the
major happenings from South America.
And the big news here is that Brazil are back on the war path again.
Atletico Madrid sounded a warning to Liverpool, whom they meet in a Champions League Group D clash
next month, with a 4-0 thrashing of Recreativo Huelva at the weekend.
Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez will need to beware of Atletico's Argentine striker Sergio Aguero, who
scored his fourth goal in a week to set Atletico on their way.
This is one of those weekends that make you happy to be a soccer fan.
One of those weekends when the stars align and the European soccer schedules come together to
give you a full menu of intense match-ups and can't-miss rivalries. It is Derby Weekend this
weekend, with Milan, Liverpool and Barcelona treating us to the best their cities have to
offer.
After being awarded the FIFPro World Footballer of the Year award this week, Cristiano Ronaldo
looks odds on to take the coveted Ballon d'Or award in December. However, several influential
figures in the game have given their backing to a host of other players who've also enjoyed
impressive years for their clubs and countries.

Group D:
Liverpool
PSV Eindhoven
Marseille
Atletico Madrid
It doesn't seem like much is going to come easy this season. This is without a doubt the hardest
group in this year's draw, and the hardest group Liverpool's been in since Benitez became
manager.
At least Liverpool has experience against both PSV and Marseille, who they've met in the Champions
League in the past two seasons.
Atletico Madrid's 20-year old Argentine international striker Sergio Aguero has progressed to be
one of the best footballers in the world in the past couple of seasons and all of Europe's top
clubs are bracing themselves for a run-in for the player's signature in the summer. It seems that
