Alot has been made of Barcelona and Real Madrid's rivalry this season, rightly so, as the starting
XI's are surely the best two starting XI's in the world. And after Barcelona stuck 5 past Atlético
Madrid yesterday, we all might have wondered how Real would react. Well, by putting 5 past [...]
Or is it the other way 'round? With global warming taking over football pitches all across Europe,
fans are finding ways to make the football experience more fun through avenues of their own. Like
in Germany this weekend. The Bundesliga is in the midst of its winter hibernation so when Hannover
