Sorry I didn't get up a weekend round-up yesterday, it was a really busy day. However I don't want to disrupt the weekly order so I'll go straight to Goals of the Week. Last week was probably the worst goals of the week post of all time. I think this week made up for it with some quality strikes.

Javier Zanetti

1998 World Cup.

From one of the most unforgettable Argentina-England games. A well practiced free kick play, brilliantly executed by Batistuta, Veron and el Pupi Zanetti.

I decided, since this weekend Inter and Roma play crucial games on the last day of the season to decide the Scudetto, to post two videos of what happened to both teams the last time they were in the same situation. (Having to win on the last day to win the Scudetto)

In the last hour or so, it's been confirmed that Miguel Angel Russo has parted company with Boca Juniors, leaving the club's managerial post vacant.
