Welcome to your Weekly Football wrap! From the looks of it, the
Valencianos are all ready to celebrate their traditional Fallas festival
by burning these "ninots" (puppets) of Jose Mourinho and
Barca's assistant coach, Tito Vilanova at the celebration on March 19.
Games come thick and fast at this time of the year and this
evening's match against Fulham follows hot on the heels of Saturday's one nil win at home to
QPR.
Founded in 1879 Fulham Football Club are the oldest professional
team in London.
You're looking at Munich's Olympiastadion, which will be the host to the Women's
European Champions League Finale on May 17! The Olympiastadion was built for 1972 Olympics and it
also hosted the 1974 FIFA World Cup Final. You may not recognize it because none of the games from
the 2006 World Cup tournament were played there.
Después de duras batallas, la Champions League femenil ya tiene a los equipos semfinalistas del
torneo. Destaca, entre todos, el paso firme con que Olympique Lyonnais, actual campeona de la justa
europea, avanzó a la siguiente ronda.
Comenzamos con FFC Frankfurt, quién consiguió el pase a las semifinales
tras ganar 3-1 en marcador gobal al LdB Malmo de la arquera tricolor Pamela
Tajonar.
El 15 de abril seremos testigos de una apasionante ronda de semifinales entre cuatro grandes:
Arsenal Ladies, FFC Frankfurt, Olympique Lyonnais y Turbine Postdam; dos cuadros alemanes, las
grandes de FA y las francesas reinas actuales de Europa. Inglesas y las alemanas del Frankfurt
serán las encargadas de abrir la ronda, para después dar paso al duelo entre Lyon y Turbine
Postdam.
The FA Womens Super League (FA WSL) gets underway again this weekend with the Arsenal Ladies
trying to retain the title they won last year. There will be eight teams in this summer's league:
Arsenal, Birmingham City, Bristol Academy, Chelsea, Doncaster Rovers Belles, Everton, Lincoln
Ladies, and Liverpool.

Las esperadas semifinales de Women's Champions League por fin llegaron temprano
este domingo. Los pronósticos fueron acertados al decir que Frankfurt se llevaba la ventaja en
Londres y las francesas del Lyon harían valer su poderío en casa, pero aún así, la gran
sorpresa fue ver a un Turbine Postdam inoperante y goleado.
It's our Weekly Women's round up again and the focus this week is on the
DFB or German Cup Final scheduled to take place in Cologne on May
12! Bayern Munich and FFC Frankfurt are set to face off against each other for the title and
interestingly, it is Frankfurt's twelfth time in the final.
Las finalistas de Women's Champions League se definieron este fin de semana sin sorpresa alguna.
Arsenal Ladies no pudo romper la barrera alemana que le impuso el Frankfurt y Turbine Postdam
tampoco pudo realizar un milagro para revertir el 5-1 que le aplicó el Lyon en territorio
francés.
El sábado muy temprano se enfrentaron FFC Frankfurt en casa, recibiendo a Arsenal Ladies con
una ventaja de 2-1 conseguida en Londres para las germanas.
FFC Frankfurt have qualified for next month's Champions League final in Munich after beating
Arsenal 2-0 on Saturday. When Fatmire Bajramaj (see below) brought her fancy bag to the pitch, her
teammates couldn't resist testing it out. LADIES, time for some shopping to celebrate, perhaps?! /
