Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 2-1 to win the Spanish
Supercopa yesterday, and really, image of Marcelo doing an abruptly executed
Capoeira hand-stand in the middle of the pitch says it
all!Jose Mourinho's pep talk must have played its part in the
pre-match preparations how else can you explain the euphoria in the photo above?
Where there's Ronaldo, there's Sami Khedira (not usually) and
where there's Khedira, there's Ozil (usually). In the name of
Bromance, Sergio Ramos temporarily took over the "duties" of the robotic-speaking
German in Real Madrid's 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano yesterday, which explains the
photo above.
The last we checked, Rickeano's Bromance was still burning as hot as an iron coal.
Just look at them... having these little precious moments to themselves during Madrid's training!
Misty eyed Pellegrini feels left out and Ramos the Raver can't
figure out what's on planet Earth is going on!
Not gonna lie, the Pied Piper of Higuain is starting to really grow on us! Take
out your flutes because he is now officially Los Blancos' top scorer two goals behind the
Messiah after their 6-2 thrashing of Villarreal last night. It's OK,
Nilmaaar,você vai ficar bem.
Zizou and amigos played out to a nice 3-3 draw in last night's "Match of the Stars" to help
Haiti. And don't you agree that it's tres bien to see Rui Costa, Luis
Figo and Edgar David's Mask on the field again?! Daaaamn, feels like old
times. Anyway forty international football stars from across the world joined UNDP (United Nations
Development Programme) to play that match against Benfica All Stars.
Adding further evidence of the explosive bromance between Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka is this
outtakes video of Real Madrid players wishing everyone happy holidays. As you can see, these two
just can't keep their hands off each other. There are a lot of jokes I can make about this, but
most of them put unwanted images in my head, so I'm just going to stop right here.
Feliz Navidad de parte del Auto-Golazo, Cristiano y Kaka! Parece que Cristiano
no se aguanto las ganas de tocar a Kaka y rapidito se pusieron a coquetear las locas.
For those with a keen eye for detail, you'll no doubt notice that R&B chantuese Aaliyah died
some 11 years ago, though in the grandest pop tradition that hasn't stopped record execs raking
over her half-finished demos, tacking on some featured artists and flashy production to fill in the
holes and releasing these patchwork nothings as 'new material'.

Oh Manchester, so much to answer for
Ever fancied being a football journalist? Then think again. Consider covering the World Cup for a
national newspaper to be just about the best job in the world? Then think again - well sort of.
In this candid interview, Daniel Taylor talks about the life of a football journalist, the
willy-waving between fans of Manchester United and Liverpool on forums and, his love of all things
Nottingham Forest.
A few January loan deals have come good of late – Ryo Myaichi at Bolton, Royston Drenthe at
Everton and Sid the Squirrel at QPR. There is however one loan signing that has quickly earned an
especially warm place in OTP's heart. His name? Pavel Pogrebnyak he of 5 goals in his first 3 [...]

This match is a bit of a frightening prospect. After a horrorshow start to the season, Everton
are pulling themselves together, and last weekend executed a 5-3 thrashing of Blackpool. Moyes' and
his blue boys will be sailing after that elating result. Bolton however still haven't righted the
ship after a mid-season dip in form.
The Copa America officially kicks off today, and like Neymar's hair, everyone
will be staying up to watch the best in South American football as they fight for the
trophy. Of course, it's normal for the Seleção to be feeling the pressure ahead of their
tournament opener against Venezuela on Sunday, but they're doing it in true Brasileiro
style, with the laid-back swag and Bromance in tow!
So a flurry of messages have been hitting us nonstop after these photos from Vanity Fair's World
Cup issue leaked last night. And hello there ropa interior (underwear!)
As we speak, the USA futbolitas all agree that Landon Donovan's bizarre pose hinges on
"unforgivable".
It's time to check in on Deportivo's Filipe Luis who is suffering from a
fracture in his right leg. He was recently discharged from the hospital and almost everyone
especially Pepe - sent flying kisses and wishes. Que doce!
"Unfortunately, I could not fight for a place in the seleção, but the Brazilian team is in my
heart and I certainly have hope for the group.
Many happy returns are in order to Arsenal's Robin Van Persie who turns twenty-seven today.
Let's hope he celebrates relaxing with his wonderfully cute family and the alcoholic
beverage/chocolate-coated items of his choice.
While we were thinking about what the most suitable gift would be for our fave Dutch hottie, we
realised that RVP already has the best present of all: he gets to continue his bromance with the
adorkable Cesc Fabregas.
Goodness, we sure hope Barcelona FC treat the lovely David Villa's soul patch and
award-nominated bitchface with the tender care deserved. Both are the best in the biz.
We're curious to know how our (very) (and we mean, really very) opinionated La Liga
readers feel about Valencia's future without Dah-veed, and how deep you think Barca's pockets will
be this transfer season.

It was recently brought to our attention (via the K-celeb site Figgy & Fatty) that the lack of
attention Kickette shows to Manchester United's Park Ji-Sung is simply unacceptable.
They claim this is a man that needs our help, not our designation to the scrap heap of players
we barely remember to mention when drunk, sober or in between.
Some say David + Iker - Victoria = True Love. We say his return to Milan has reignited his
interest in Marco Borriello much to the delight of our fangirl impulses. Â Watching David and Marco
flirt shamelessly through all of their matches gets our pulses racing the same way he and original
love, Gary Neville, did in the late '90s.
Both Londoners, media darlings and wrapped in St George patriotism, Harry Redknapp and David Beckham are a super-bromance just waiting to happen.Despiteperceivedwisdom that the former England skipper would be out of his depth in the top tier of football, he has always been backed by a splurge of superlatives from good ol' Harry.
Amanda, Shana, and Rachna start this week's show with a look at the MNT roster for the upcoming
Costa Rica and Belgium friendlies. They are relieved to find Fabian Johnson on the list instead of
Eddie Johnson, and welcome the return of Jose Francisco Torres, Jozy Altidore, and the Huntington
Beach Bromance that is Robbie Rogers and Sacha Kljestan.
To start off, we must tip our hats to Alain Rochat. That was a well-hit winner.
Also, please note that there will be no Eric Hassli discussion in this post. If you want to know
anything about how Hassli can cure your dog of rabies with a mere shoulder check from his massive
and serene frame, just listen to the Union broadcast from Saturday.
It took a great deal of restraint to not post that picture of Roonaldo's bromance in full glory.
Their reactions after being named in the top two must suffice.
The first of roughly four thousand lists of football's wealthiest players has been announced,
with several editions of varying size and factual basis to be released within the next month.
With a bat of an eyelash, the weekend's over. Luckily we caught a fleeting glimpse of Owen
Hargreaves to dull the Monday Morning blues. Image: Getty Images Europe.
Saturday
- Carly Cole and baby Ruby sat down with who else? Hello! magazine to discuss details
of her car hijacking.
