With just a few days remaining before the 2008 Torneo Clausura begins, some of the sides are still
going over their options when it comes to the formations and personnel for their opening matches.
No such trouble for Argentina's Olympic manager Sergio Batista, who already seems to know his
starting XI for Wednesday's match against Guatemala [.
The final squad for Argentina's defence of their gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Football
Tournament has been announced by Under 23 coach Sergio Batista. Following Bayern München's
refusal to allow Martín Demichelis to join the squad, and Real Madrid doing likewise with
Gonzalo Higuaín, the side looks slightly different to that originally named [.
Sergio Batista, the manager of the Under 20 national side, named his squad on Wednesday for the
Under 20 South American championships to be held in Venezuela in January 2009. The championships
will double up as qualifiers for the Under 20 World Cup in Egypt, at which of course Argentina will
be the defending champions.
First the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled on Wednesday that clubs were not obliged to
release players for the event.
Argentina's Olympic Team coach Sergio Batista defied the court order and said ....
"The player is here and will remain with the team. He will start Thursday's game (against
Ivory Coast in Shanghai) from the beginning and I'm sure he can be with us for the rest of the
competition.
Nigeria squares off against Argentina in Saturday's Olympic gold medal final and while the game is
a repeat of the 1996 gold medal match that Nigeria won 3-2, can the Super Eagles' offense deal with
Lionel Messi and the Albicelestes this time around?
Argentina are favored after their 3-0 destruction of Brazil in the semi-finals.
Argentina rounded off their Olympic Football Tournament group campaign with an academic defeat of
Serbia on Wednesday. Having already qualified for the quarter-finals, Sergio Batista rested Juan
Román Riquelme, Javier Mascherano and (to the disappointment of a Chinese crowd who'd turned
up specially to see him) Lionel Messi, and was rewarded with a 2-0 win [.
HEGS is back, but it feels, I must say, a bit like I hadn't really been away. When I left for
Havana, Sergio Batista had named Lionel Messi in the squad for the Olympic Football Tournament, and
Barcelona president Joan Laporta was making some decidedly 'we'll have to see about that'-type
noises. The novel seems [.
Germán Denis has been banging the goals in for Independiente regularly for some time now, so
it's no surprise to hear him linked with a European club, and according to Italy's Corriere dello
Sport, he could be on his way to join Ezequiel Lavezzi at Napoli. Diego Maradona's former club are
reportedly preparing an €8 [.
Rafael Benitez has lost his battle to prevent Javier Mascherano from going to Beijing after he was
yesterday named in Argentina's Olympic squad.
The decision could prompt the Spaniard to speed up his attempts to sign Aston Villa's Gareth Barry
as Mascherano will now be unavailable for both Liverpool's Champions League qualifying legs on
August 12 and 27 as well as the first two games of the Premier League campaign at Sunderland and at
home to Middlesbrough.
After the initial announcement just over a month ago, the day Racing Club fans had been waiting for
arrived on Monday. Blanquiceleste, the company who ran the club from 2001 until early June, were
signed out of existence by the judges presiding over their case yesterday. Meanwhile, a little to
the west of Avellaneda, in [.
Lenilson Batista regresa a Brasil, ayer anunció el Atlético Mineiro su contratación

Faría confirmó el fichaje del jugador de 27 años y añadió: "Está
todo acertado con el jugador y su representante. Desde que llegué al Atlético Mineiro

Empieza el partido e Itamar Batista hace feliz a la afición de Jaguares, pero al final de
éste tuvo todo para darles el triunfo y falló un penal que hubiera significado su primer
triunfo en el Apertura 2008 y se tuvieron que conformar con el empate a uno contra Atlante. Chiapas
consiguió la primera anotación del [.

Good news for Sergio Batista. Lionel Messi's decision was announced on Wednesday, and he's got
FIFA's backing: he wants to link up with Argentina's Olympic squad for the Beijing 2008 Games. With
the callup now accepted by the player, Barcelona are obliged under FIFA's regulations to release
Messi for the tournament, since as an under-23, [.

Who's the best player you've played with?
Ashley Adams, Greenwich
Paul Gascoigne was exceptional, as was David Ginola. Roy Wegerle was also a fantastic
player. When I was at QPR, he scored a goal against Leeds that won Goal of the Season.
Breaking news from the AFA: Alfio Basile has met with AFA bigwigs, and TN are reporting as I type
that he's resigned from his post in charge of the selección. Olympic coach Sergio Batista,
River Plate manager Diego Simeone, and San Lorenzo boss Miguel Angel Russo are the early favourites
to replace him.

Todos se sienten orgullosos de poder levantarla en lo más alto. El delantero del C.D. Águila de El Salvador, Nicolás Muñoz, no escapa a esa realidad que atrapa a los panameños.

El zaguero central y capitán de la selección de Panamá, Felipe Baloy, se ausentó ayer del entrenamiento de la selección absoluta de Panamá.
Esta fue la única baja en la práctica matutina del miércoles en el Estadio Nacional Rod Carew.
La revelación del torneo pasado, Itamar Batista, no está contemplado por el técnico
Sergio Almaguer para iniciar el siguiente torneo. El día del Draft, Itamar habló con su
técnico y le pidió unos días más antes de reportarse con su equipo, ya que
tenía problemas familiares en Brasil. Hace dos semanas que lo están esperando y [.
Argentina's Olympic soccer coach Sergio Batista had a bit of a mix-up in an interview recently. The
translation came out that they were playing Siberia instead of Serbia.
But he's easily forgiven once you hear how the interviews go...
Argentine journalist asks question. Batista answers.
Last night I told Beckie that I wanted to wake up early to watch the Argentina/Brazil semi-final
match. I didn't know the exact time but believed it was either at 6 or 7. I didn't sleep too well
and woke up first at 5am and then at 6.
The Argentina manager hopes winning the Olympic title will help change the way South American stars
of the future are coached.
Batista has one eye on gold, and the other on a football revolution.
Julio Grondona returns, on Monday, from a FIFA congress in Zurich. When he flew out to Switzerland
last week he told the press that the 27th, when he returned, would be the day on which he would be
announcing the new manager of the Argentine senior men's national team. The commonly held view is
that [.

*rimshot* and groan. I know the pun is awful - but I couldn't resist. The Olympic tournament is
causing considerable consternation for many clubs who want their talented young stars fit and
healthy, and focused on club competition this August.
Among those stars in the throws of a Country vs.

Someone pointed out to me the moment he knew the U.S. was going to defeat Brazil for the gold
medal.
It was during the break for the overtime periods, when Brazil's players fell to the ground to rest,
exhausted. The U.S. players were obviously fitter, and a tired Brazilian defense would probably
give up chances.
Liverpool midfielder Javier Mascherano has become the first Argentinian footballer in history to
win two Olympic gold medals.
Javier Mascherano helped the Albiceleste beat Nigeria 1-0 in this morning's Olympic final in
Beijing‘s Bird‘s Nest Stadium, the winning goal for the South Americans being scored by
Angel Di Maria in the 58th minute.
Ricardo Arellano, nazareno para el partido entre Chivas y Jaguares, se dio el lujo de regalarle al
equipo del "rebaño sagrado" su primera victoria como local del Clausura 2008 al
inventarse un penal que fue muy bien aprovechado por Ramón Morales. El juego ofreció muy
poco, el nuevo "look" del brasileño Itamar Batista fue lo más [.
