It is one of the more quiet Sundays in recent memory in the soccer world, but even on a slow day
there are plenty of matches to watch.
The Under-20 World Cup is in full swing, while leagues from Italy to France round out their
weekend's schedules. Americans Abroad are in action as well, with Oguchi Onyewu hoping to get some
first-team league action with AC Milan and Carlos Bocanegra looking to help Rennes stop mighty
Bordeaux.
The UEFA Europa League began its group stage on Thursday, September 17, 2009 with a full set of
matches. Many of favorites are still alive including defending champions Shakhtar Donetsk. Almost
all of the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, La Liga, and Ligue 1 clubs are still alive in the
group stage.
The European Transfer window as officially closed with many deals being made on the final day,
Tuesday September 1, 2009. There were no huge moves by any of the large clubs but many clubs tried
to solidify their rosters. Most of the moves are loans, a few were free, some undisclosed, and a
couple that were a published fee.
