Calcio, Spareggi Mondiali: Francia, che furto al Trap. Bene Portogallo, Grecia e Slovenia. Fuori le russe

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 19 November @ 07:34 AM EST
A Parigi, ieri sera, un clamoroso "errore" arbitrale spezza definitivamente il sogno del Trap di portare l'Eire ai Mondiali e regala, invece, il pass per il Sudafrica ai galletti di Domenech. Ma la qualficazione della Francia ai Mondiali del prossimo anno è immeritata e, soprattutto, viziata da un fallo di mano pazzesco di Henry che consente a Gallas di realizzare il prezioso pari (gli irlandesi erano passati in vantaggio con Robbie Keane).

Portugal v. Bosnia

Soccer Tickets Online 18 November @ 07:04 AM EST

At 2:45 today the Portuguese National Team (minus Cristiano Ronaldo) will square off against the Bosnians to defend their 1 goal aggregate advantage over the boys from the shores of the Adriatic. This is an interesting match because everyone on earth expects Portugal to be in the World Cup, but I think the Bosnians have other ideas.

Play-off against Bosnia Herzegovina heats up off the pitch.

Euro 2008 on World Cup Blog 17 November @ 11:16 AM EST

The arrival of the Selecção at Sarajevo yesterday was met with threats, insult and spitting.

The stage has been set for anything but an enjoyable soccer match. I genuinely fear for what might happen to our players and supporters should we (as everyone expects) qualify for the world cup. Human life is certainly so much more valuable then a qualification to the world-cup.

Portugal arrive in Bosnia to hostile reception

Port 16 November @ 09:42 PM EST
Portugal arrived in Bosnia to a very hostile reception by Bosnian supporters. The Portuguese players were insulted, spit on and cursed at while Bosnian police did very little to ward of these fans upon Portugal's arrival. The team was delayed for over an hour by authorities as they checked passports and luggage. Click to continue reading...

Guess Who’s Back? Back Again…

Futbolita 16 November @ 09:04 PM EST

Bruno Alves may be Portugal's Man of the Moment, but our sad and forgotten hero is Greaseano. He returned to training with the Pellegrini Pack yesterday, after witnessing his national team's narrow 1-0 victory over Bosnia. No one came to ask him if he wanted M&Ms during half time, so do forgive his bitterness.

Los fines de semana en los que no hay jornada de Liga me parecen menos fin de semana. Cuando la liga se va poniendo interesante jornada a jornada, haciéndote desear que llegue el próximo partido, llega, casi sin que nos demos cuenta, una nueva cita para las selecciones. Puede que haya a quien le guste este cohitus interruptus, pero a mí, no me gustan nada. Click to continue reading...

Nico saves the day; New Guy in town

The Offside - Chelsea 14 November @ 06:40 PM EST

Off a defender, off a post, in the net. Mr. Anelka took care of business away for France, making their trip to South Africa look pretty likely. As Jack posted earlier this week, Nico likes being the supporting striker, but that doesn't mean he doesn't like to let it rip on occasion.

Also in action today, Deco, Ricardo Carvalho, and Paulo Ferreira all played as Portugal won 1-0 against Bosnia, as Hilario, who won his first callup for Portugal, didn't make the bench.

Port 12 November @ 09:37 PM EST

TFC Academy CanCon Requirement Plays to the Sticks

A More Splendid Life 12 November @ 09:45 AM EST
Just when I'm trolling around in search of something to care about, along comes Toronto FC COO and all around fan favourite Paul Beirne tweeting about how he intends to require TFC Academy entrants to commit to playing for Canada.
Even Duane Rollins points out the Academy couldn't force a player to play for the national outfit if it came down to that, so ultimately this is just more fan populism, and it seems they're loving it. Click to continue reading...

Will Portugal Overcome Bosnia Without Ronaldo?

World Cup Buzz 05 November @ 04:41 PM EST

Portugal will most likely be missing Cristiano Ronaldo when it hosts Bosnia-Herzegovina on 11/14/09 as it looks to build some momentum prior to the return leg in Bosnia on the 18th of November. Unfortunately for the Portuguese the latest report claims Ronaldo will be out for about a month which means he will not feature in both matches for the national team.
