Win and move on. Lose and go home. A knockout tournament is not about which team is better, but
which is better right now. Tonight's US Open Cup match between the Seattle Sounders FC and the
Atlanta Silverbacks will be carried at SoundersFC.com for those unable to be at sunny Starfire in
Tukwila, WA.
La Selección Mexicana Sub-23 derrotó esta mañana por 4-2 a la selección de
Holanda, en las semifinales del torneo Esperanzas de Toulon, en un partido en el que Marco
Fabián volvió a marcar gol e igualó la marca de 7 tantos lograda por el inglés Alan Shearer
hace más de 20 años.

the competitors have dragged themselves over the week's finishing line, Kickette staffers wheeze

Today's match between the Vancouver Whitecaps and the Seattle Sounders isn't about a trophy
(though it will influence the Cascadia Cup). It would be easy to say it is about rivalry, as the
competition between these cities within soccer goes back nearly 40 years and 125 games. Instead
though, it is about standings.

Ever since the womb and all the way to the tomb, Xabi Alonso is a boss. But now, he's a Hugo
Boss.
Yum diddly dum.
Asking our usual multiple choice questionnaire would be an exercise in futility as the answer is
obvious: we'll have all three.

In Bilbao, Real Madrid won the title for the first time in four years, whilst at the Camp Nou
Lionel Messi equalled, then surpassed, the record for the most goals scored in a European season.
The Spanish newspapers would have you believe that only one or the other of these happened, of
course.
· La Copa recibirá a 6 equipos mexicanos y 4 extranjeros incluido el campeón defensor Boca
Juniors de Argentina.
· Los equipos #Sub17 de México con fuerte interés para los del viejo continente
México D.F. 15 de mayo del 2012.- El comité organizador de la Copa Independencia Sub17 dio a
conocer los equipos y fechas para la tercera edición del torneo que se juega entre las
representaciones sub 17 de los mejores clubes de futbol a nivel internacional.
Did the first half happen? Only about one-third of the highlight package of last night's Seattle
Sounders 2-0 win are from that first 45 minutes. It includes "highlights" like FC Dallas player
Fabian Castillo sprinting by Zach Scott and slamming the ball into the side net. There's Mauro
Rosales getting two opportunities on goal from short range and somehow not finishing.
Mourinho 2 - 1 Alonso
Who said the FA Cup was losing its prestige? Before Real Madrid's La Liga clash against
Granada, former Liverpool midfielder updated former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho with the result
of the final.
"Dos a Uno. Carroll." Alonso told his manager.
Tonight a jubilant and confident Chelsea travel to Anfield to take Liverpool in the Premier League
with a chance to close the gap on Newcastle, Spurs and the Arsenal on the final day of the season
as the race for the top four hots up!.
It's a long shot for Chelsea, but after some interesting results this weekend, the door has been
left open again and we HAVE TO take the chance to get three important points.

File this under 'curio' but here's a little snippet of former Liverpool man Xabi Alonso keeping
former Chelsea man Jose Mourinho abreast of the score in the FA Cup Final while sat on the bench in
the Bernabeu...
Granted it's not the most interesting clip, but anything Xabi is okay by me.

This week I chatted with Dave Clark of Sounder at Heart, SB Nation's Seattle
Sounders site. Clark and I discussed various things about the teams, including broadcasters. Some
very good tactical information about how the Philadelphia Union can exploit the Sounders' defense
this afternoon.
Terminó la temporada para la categoría Sub-20. Los felinos empataron 1-1 en el juego de vuelta
y no les alcanzó para remontar la eliminatoria. La derrota en el partido de ida el jueves 3-2 los
obligaba a ganar por dos goles en la vuelta y lejos estuvieron de poder lograrlo. El partido se
realizó en las instalaciones de La Cantera antes unos casi 300 aficionados.
Welcome to the Friday Crackovia Club! You know how things are here during this
time of the week a little loco - and the Crackovia folks have constantly
kept to their mantra by producing the craziest football sketches! This week, watch as Jose
Mourinho, Sergio Ramos and Fabio Coentrao break into a musical in the
middle of a classy restaurant.
Augusto Alonso with a golazo like you've never seen before.
Augusto is 15 years old. He's from Argentina. And he plays Amputee football.
Amputee Football is played internationally by over 20 countries in 5 continents, but it is
still not yet a recognised Paralympic Sport.
There's a rather big game coming up tomorrow. The Seattle Sounders wil, of course, be hosting
the LA Galaxy in a midweek affair that won't get the attention it probably deserves. The
unfortunate reality is that this rather huge game, at least from a psyche standpoint, is smack dab
in the middle of the busiest part of the Sounders' MLS schedule.
East Providence Sports grabbed a 5-2 win over FC Porto NB in its season opener on Sunday.
EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. Alonso Villasenor scored a brace to help lead East Providence Sports to a
convincing 5-2 win over FC Porto NB (New Bedford, Mass.) to kick off its 2012 Ligas Unidas Soccer
Association (LUSA) season Sunday at Riverside Recreation Park.
Below are player ratings for Real Madrid 2-1 Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League on
Wednesday, April 25, 2012.
Real Madrid
Casillas 7
Ramos 5
Pepel 5
Marcelo 5
Arbeloa 5
Alonso 6.5
Khedira 6
Ronaldo 7
Di Maria 5
Benzema 7
Ozil 6.
Real Madrid well and truly have sealed the La Liga title of 2011-12 season with a 2-1 victory at
the Camp Nou. Khedira and Ronaldo scored for the away side taking them 7 points clear of the
defending Champions. It was the first victory of Real Madrid under Mourinho against FC Barcelona in
the league, incidently it was the first victory for Mourinho at the Camp Nou.
For the second straight game Colorado was shutout in a loss. This time it was only a 1-0 loss,
actually one of our better games in Seattle as you'll see below, but you only need to give up 1
goal if you can't score.
Honestly Seattle should have been up at least 1 within the first 15-20 minutes.
Saturday the Sounders did exactly what the coaching staff asked them to do. They won a road
point. The result and the gameplan were as cold and calculated as a professional foul. Sigi
Schmid's roster choices, substitution pattern and tactical approach to the game were consciously
designed to earn a point and potentially steal a win.
That was the headline that might have been. It was almost perfectly set up. Two
Sounders had gone down previously with boots to their nether regions. On comes Marc Burch, fresh
from slagging off United in the media, only for Sigi to give him just two and a half minutes to
prove what he couldn't in a handful of years with DC.
Exhibit 318 in the "this is why we don't panic when we're not 7th in November" file. Fulham,
despite a slowish run recently, demolished an in-form Bolton team on their own patch. We're an
inconsistent team, no doubt about it, but a lot of football teams are. And when we're good, we
really can be very good.

Just as the sun began to make an appearance in the gray Spring sky just in time to dip below the
Olympic Mountains across Puget Sound, the Seattle Sounders & San Jose Earthquakes were kicking off
at CenturyLink Field in front of 38,301 fans.
Seattle looked to be the aggressor early, controlling possession and getting up the flanks.
El equipo Cachorros de 2da División perdió un partido clave ante Necaxa, un rival directo en
busca de meterse a la liguilla. Los de Aguascalientes vencieron con solitario gol de y llegó a 15
puntos, dejando a los felinos en 8vo lugar con 13. Debido a compromiso con Copa Dallas, la
alineación de Tigres fue compuesta por elementos de Sub-20 aunque ni así pudieron evitar la 3era
derrota al hilo.
Major League Soccer's Disciplinary Committee and overall leadership was kept busy this week
thanks to the Houston Dynamo at Seattle Sounders match. The more famous Colin Clark anti-gay slur
incident earned him a three game suspension, but there is more fallout from the game now. After
post match review Adam Moffat is suspended for his next match and fined due to "a reckless
challenge which endangered the safety of his opponent" (Osvaldo Alonso).
Un encuentro entre los dos equipos rojinegros del fútbol mexicano, el equipo mas joven en la
primera división mexicana tiene mucho mejor momento y la lucha por el descenso ya esta atras para
los Xolos, ahora a buscar la liguilla en cambio en Atlas de Guadalajara solo existe la idea de
salir con los tres puntos en la visita que realizarán a Xolos de Tijuana en el estadio caliente,
aseguró el joven atlista Alonso Zamora.

Just out of shot: Xabi Alonso tugging on a length of fishing line...

Después de haber caído en la capital ante la máquina celeste, tal parece que Vuce apretó
las tuercas del equipo, en base a ese ajuste nos ha dado como resultado un equipo ofensivo sin
complejos ni temor al ofender, antes se decia que Suazo era la única opción adelante, pero en
los recientes cuatro partidos hemos visto una gran cantidad de variantes.
El día de ayer Monterrey se enfrentó al colero general del fútbol mexicano, y le jugó como
tal; goleándolo 4-1 con una buena actuación, sobre todo en el segundo tiempo. En la primera parte
Rayados batalló, y es que el rival también juega, pero al final de cuentas salió a relucir las
individualidades de nuestro equipo, y Querétaro terminó sucumbiendo.
Dalglish to Blame for Liverpool Collapse - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Liverpool crumble to new lows after losing at the Stadium of Light. The reds now have 39 points
from 27 games, the very similar stats they had last season as well minus the heavy spending this
summer. What is more shocking is that despite spending 40 odd million just on attacking options
(Not to forget the 58 million spent on Carroll and Suarez in January 2011) the
club has only been able to score mere 30 goals, 5 less than premier league current leader Robin Van
Persie alone.
El delantero uruguayo de los
Diablos Rojos del Toluca, Iván Alonso, se dijo contento por
marcar su gol 9 en la jornada 8 del torneo Clausura 2012, en el empate del equipo frente a los
Xoloitzcuintles de Tijuana, si bien aclaró, la buena racha es para el equipo, por lo que espera,
puedan seguir por buen camino.
