Al Wasl coach Diego Maradona will be without his goalkeeper Majid Nasser for the next 17 games
after he was caught on camera whacking Al Ahli coach Quique Sanchez Flores (of Valencia, Atletico
Madrid and 'Dr House' fame) across the back of the head in a fit of prissy rage
after the latter side put the former out of the Etisalat Cup on Saturday night.
Este fin de semana el fútbol español vivió dos goles realmente fascinantes, de dos de sus mas
grandes estrellas de los últimos años.
La gran batalla de los medios de comunicación Cristiano Ronaldo contra Lionel Messi, Real
Madrid contra Barcelona.
El portugues Cristiano Ronaldo anoto un golazo de taquito al Rayo Vallecano en favor de su
escuadra el Real Madrid , equipo que durante el partido conto con un poco de la ayuda del arbitro
al no expulsar ni a Pepe ni a Sergio Ramos quienes de suavecitos no tienen nada.
U.S. head coach Jurgen Klinsmann wants his players to be reaching the highest level they can, and
four of them took a nice step on Thursday as their squads reached the quarterfinals of the Europa
League.
Jermaine Jones scored the game-winner and added an assist as Schalke advanced to the quarterfinals
and will face Athletic Bilbao.
The Atletico Madrid goalkeeper clears the ball high into the air and Barcelona's Thiago brilliantly
controls the ball with ease.

Huzzah! Jordi Cruyff's dad is 65 today. To celebrate, here's some Cruyfftastic vintage photos of
him in his snake-hipped, flaxen-haired pomp (plus a couple thrown in of him just as he was
beginning to move out of it!)...

Alessandro Nesta has confirmed he will leave AC Milan at season's end, and MLS is among the
places he might land at next.
Nesta said during a press conference on Thursday morning that after 10 years with Milan, he was
ready to depart due to all the tournaments the team plays in forcing him to the bench.

Here's Radamel 'El Tigre' Falcao meeting his namesake, 'Carla' the 250kg Bengal tiger, at the
Vicente Calderon which, with a game still left to play this season, could be viewed as a wee bit
risky on Atletico Madrid's part...

Spain name Euro 2012 squad: Torres in, Soldado out - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Vicente del Bosque has the task of bringing home a third straight international tournament
success this summer, with the triumphs at Euro 2008 and in the 2010 World Cup meaning Spain are
favourites for this year's Euro 2012.
Bayern Munich have arrived in Doha, Qatar for a training camp,
and all Arjen Robben and Thomas Mueller really wanted to do was
to play on their iPads. Or rather, just Robben's. It's painfully obvious that they are on
Instagram, editing some glamour shots of themselves.
Yes, you're looking at the sticky note belonging to Jose Mourinho from
Saturday's match between Real Madrid and Mallorca. Granted, his
handwriting looks a little like your 7-year-old sister's when she's penning a poem about Prince
Charming in a pink cape, but who cares?
A whole gaggle of interesting matches to watch this weekend. We've chosen a handful each on
Saturday and Sunday, including the quarterfinals of the African Cup of Nations, a couple each from
the big leagues (Premier League, including Chelsea-ManUtd; Serie A, highlighted by AC Milan-Napoli;
La Liga the one we're most interested in is Atletico Madrid-Valencia), plus a few wild cards

26.02.2012 - Cristiano Ronaldo ya había salvado el triunfo de Real Madrid (0-1 a
Rayo Vallecano) con
un taco magistral y se iba 12 puntos sobre el Barcelona que no podía
con el invicto Atleti del Cholo Simeone (1-1).
Pero en Madrid, a diez minutos del final, apareció
Leo Messi para responderle a CR y dejar
vivo al Barcelona en la Liga española.
Barcelona maintain their 10 points gap with Real Madrid after another Lionel Messi goals day
stunned Racing Santander, leaving the Catalan a comfortable journey home awaiting for another
weekend to chase Madrid.
After recently bagging five goals in the Champions League, Messi continues his goal scoring form
this weekend, although the Argentinian international only bagged a brace but it were decisive for
Barca's victory.

I was reading this article in believe it or not The Daily Mail written by Martin Samuel and for
once, I have to agree with him. The article is basically about the situation that has faced every
single Chelsea manager for the most part and that's the way our transfers are handled.
What I am referring to is the situation with "club signings" and the effect it has had on the likes
of Jose Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti and possibly AVB.
Crazy Gol TV co-commentator Ray Hudson rather enjoyed Cristiano Ronaldo's free-kick against
Atletico Madrid this week. In fact, he said the goal was a "wet dream of orgasmic proportions".
That would be enough for most pundits, but not the crazed Geordie. He also said that the flight of
the ball had "more curves to it [.

NASL side Minnesota Stars launched their new kits for 2012 not so very long ago and, while the
home strip's pretty swish and all, it's their away kit that well and truly steals
the show.
The silver kit is made by Admiral Christ, remember Admiral?

Liverpool midfielder Maxi Rodriguez has admitted that he is considering quitting the club this
summer.
The Argentine has been restricted to just seven Premier League starts this season, but he has still
managed to claim four goals for The Reds.
But the former Atletico Madrid ace is not happy about being a squad player at Anfield.
10 Most Overpriced Footballers - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
There are many, especially those who don't have very much of an interest in sport, who think
that top athletes are overpaid to do nothing more than ‘play a game'. However, there are many
like Lionel Messi, Tom Brady, Derrick Rose, and others who are the best or among the best in their
respective sports that look like they at least somewhat deserve the high salaries that they
receive.

Atletico Madrid hosts Malaga, Levante travels to Mallorca, and much more in the Spanish Primera
Division (La Liga) on Saturday, May 5, 2012.
Athletic Bilbao v Getafe
Both teams are fighting for a Europa League spot and a loss would probably end all hopes. As
with most matches, the home side have the advantage but Athletic Bilbao can be an unpredictable
team.
The UEFA Europa League final is upon us. It's an all-Spanish match later today, with
Atlético Madrid vs Athletic Bilbao facing off at the National Arena in
Bucharest. It's a late kickoff in Romania: 9:45pm EEST, which corresponds to the usual
2:45pmET/11:45amPT for those of in the US.

Tonight's Schalke friendly has had more hype surrounding it than either of the Philadelphia
Union's previous games against European giants Manchester United, but not because of the fame of
the opposing team. Instead that hype was created by a single player, whose retirement from European
soccer comes at an opportune time for the Union.
Around 400 Athletic Bilbao fans are believed to have missed their side's Europa League final
appearance after getting their European capitals muddled. The barmy Basques turned up in the
Hungarian capital Budapest expecting to see their team take an Atletico Madrid, only to discover
that the match was taking place 500 miles away in Bucharest, [.

Real Madrid beat Mallorca 4-1 last night, taking their points tally to a record breaking 100 for
the season. Mou's men made sure of the title a couple of weeks ago, which rendered Barca's failure
to beat Real Betis inconsequential as far as the table went.

Spain head coach Vicente Del Bosque has made a number of surprise inclusions in his preliminary
21-man squad for Euro 2012.
Included in the squad are Benat Etxebarria from Real Betis, Isco of Malaga and Javi Garcia of
Benfica, however many of these players can expect to be dropped after players from Chelsea,
Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao have played in their upcoming finals.
Atletico Madrid striker Adrian Lopez helped himself to a goal on his Spanish debut, as the
reigning European and World champions warmed up for their Euro 2012 Finals campaign next month with
a comfortable 2-0 win over Serbia today.
The u-21 European Championship golden boot winner in 2011 was also taken down for the penalty,
which Santi Cazorla dispatched with aplomb.
Chelsea striker Fernando Torres has reminded rivals that the European champions will be
contending for the Barclays Premier League next season as the team has become fully committed to
putting last season's domestic struggles behind them.
The Blues incredibly realized owner Roman Abramovich's European dream 10 days ago in Munich and
although many of the squad's members are already engaged in Euro 2012 preparations, Torres is
thinking about next season too.
Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez may have missed two quality chances, but he came through in the
clutch to give Mexico another friendly win on Thursday.
Hernandez made up for two missed shots in the 80th minute by scoring a winner in stoppage time
of a 2-1 victory over Bosnia-Herzegovina at Solder FIeld in Chicago, Ill.
Big blow for Malaga as winger Joaquin Sanchez is set to be four weeks due to a torn right thigh
muscle, the Primera Division club have announced.
Joaquin complained of pain on Friday morning after playing in Thursday's Champions for Africa
benefit match and, after undergoing tests, it was confirmed the former Spain international would be
absent for at least the next month.
