Pirlo, the LL Cool J of Serie A...Reader's choice: "Don't Call It Comeback" or "Doing it and
doing it and doing it...well."
If there is any weekend to pick-up your Serie A match watching, this is the one.
It was a depleted Barcelona side that turned up in Valencia tonight, but it was also a team that
does't give and they got a credible 1-1 draw in their Copa del Rey semi-final first-leg. Barca will
be heavy favorites now to finish this tie off at the Camp Now.
Barca were given an early scare when Roberto Soldado raced onto a through ball, but Pinto came
racing out of his goal to slide in and clear the danger, appearing to use his hand as he did so,
only for play to be waved on.
FC Barcelona took a good step towards proceeding to Copa Del Rey final with a 1-1 draw at
Mestella. Considering how tough we have found recently in Valencia, this draw is as good as a win -
especially because of the away goal. In the 27th minute Jonas put Valencia ahead, but Carles Puyol
equalised for Barca in the 36th minute.

Barcelona recorded a fine 4-1 win over Malaga to keep the pressure on leaders Real Madrid at the
top of La Liga. A fine Lionel Messi hat-trick and a goal by Alexis Sanchez sealed the 4-1 win at

I don't think they come lower than Pepe. Even animals have a sense of fair play. This man if you
can call him that should be banned from the sport for life. Leo Messi goes down after colliding
with Callejon and while he's down, Pepe strolls casually over and deliberately plants his studs on
Messi's hand.
Barcelona looked like they were headed for a draw before Alexis Sanchez and Messi scored in the
span of 10 minutes to hand the Catalans a much needed 4-2 win over Real Betis that reduced their
deficit on Leaders Real Madrid to 5 points.
World Player of the year Lionel Messi scored a brace to bring his tally for the season to 19
goals, just 2 short of leading goal scorer Cristiano Ronaldo.
Barcelona survived a scare to beat Real Betis 4-2 at the Camp Nou and keep in touch with leaders

champions. Pep Guardiola's men thus progressed into [.

were disposed of as though they were an irritant to Barcelona. This Barcelona side take no
prisoners.

There's not much in the way of significant news circulating in the immediate wake of our grossly
disappointing 1-1 draw in Wigan on Saturday afternoon. What we do have, though, is a few
interesting tidbits to touch on. Let's take a look shall we?
To Naples, not London
Vargas opts to join Napoli
Disappointing news out of Chile, with Eduardo Vargas confirming he'll be joining Napoli in the
January transfer window.
Let's rewind back to August, in the days leading up to the (delayed) Serie A season. If someone
told you that Udinese would be tied for first place two games before the winter break, you would
have probably laughed, and rightfully so, considering that the Friuli side lost two of their best
players in Alexis Sanchez and Gökhan Inler to Barcelona and Napoli respectively.
David Villa fractured his left tibia shortly before half-time in the Fifa Club World Cup
semi-final against Al Sadd in Yokohama, Japan today.
Villa, who had been linked with a move to away from the Nou Camp in January, was carried off on
a stretcher after appearing to land awkwardly 39 minutes into a game Barcelona were winning
1-0.

Horrible news out of Japan this morning where FC Barcelona defeated Al-Sadd 0-4 in the Club
World Cup semi-final and will move on to play Santos in the final.
In the 36th minute of the first half David Villa was injured running down a through ball and
when he tried to control the pass twisted is left leg and fell to the ground.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has dismissed Spanish media reports linking David Villa with a
move away from the Nou Camp in the January transfer window.
Sports newspaper Marca claimed oin Wednesday that the striker is ready to move on from Barca

League match up against BATE Borisov followed by the monsterous clash against Real Madrid.

FIFA Club World Cup.
Goals from Alexis Sanchez (2), David Villa and Lionel Messi gave the Spanish and European
champions a comfortable 4-0 victory at home to Rayo Vallecano. The win meant that Barcelona reduced
the gap between themselves and league leaders Real Madrid to three points but the capital side do
have the advantage of a game in hand.
MIRA ESO! Everyone in that photo above has a different facial
expression and a different story to tell, from Dani Alves who is about to break
into a funk carioca, David Villa who is keeping his
hands politely to himself to Mascherano who seems annoyed with the crowd (probably
not, it's the default look of the Tevez clan.
Spanish champions Barcelona got back to winning ways after a superb 4-0 win over Rayo Vallecano at
the Camp Nou with Alexis Sanchez the star of the show. The young Chilean forward bagged a brace and
further goals from David Villa and another sublime run-come-finish by Lionel Messi sealed a fine

We are just one month away from the next El Clasico and football fans all over Spain are
clamoring for Barcelona v Real Madrid tickets!
If you are a FC Barcelona fan you have to be a little bit concerned as the clubs inconsistent
play and numerous injuries seem to be hampering their run in La Liga currently.
SPANISH FOOTBALL & Barcelona based Sports paper "Mundo Deportivo" remind readers that FC BARCELONA
has not forgotten about AC MILAN & Brazilian International defender THIAGO SILVA. The fact was that
Barça would have made a "serious" effort this season for the defender but the "money situation" at
the Club did not permit extend itself beyond Alexis Sanchez & Cesc Fabregas.
