Bastante me he aficionado estos últimos meses al fútbol nórdico y especialmente a la liga
noruega sobre todo a raíz de un buen amigo con el que he compartido grandes charlas sobre este
fútbol tan peculiar, Curro Barrera (@kurro_bg). Ya hace semanas que finalizó una liga siempre
interesante por la cantidad de jóvenes que juegan en ella y sobre todo por la llegada de
futbolistas absolutamente desconocidos en muchos casos de equipos africanos que despuntan jóvenes
y utilizan la Tippeligaen como trampolín para saltar hacia otras ligas europeas de mayor nivel.

That's the next time these two monstrosities will face one another, perhaps in a league-mandated
steel cage with Marquess of Queensbury rules and everyone signing a pre-match waiver for bodily
harm/death.
An exceptional war of words already, with Pique declaring "Mourinho is wrecking Spanish
football" and Jose retorting that Barcelona uses the tactics of a "small team".

The new season of La Liga is almost upon us and there has been a lot shake-ups in several
squads. The big two have gotten stronger, but there have also been significant improvements in the
next rung of teams.
Eric Cantona is not a big fan of City's approach to the sport. City has been neglecting its
academy the same way Real Madrid has turned its back to their legendary cantera. The Man Utd legend
was in Manchester to promote the NY Cosmos which will participate in Paul Scholes's testimonial
this Friday.
Ah here they are again at last: Real Madrid matches. Nevermind that they're only friendlies. For
die-hard Madridistas like myself, there are never enough of them... and though fatherhood has
helped a lot with the Real Madrid withdrawal symptoms, they never go away permanently. Last Sunday
morning (Saturday evening LA time I think), Real Madrid played their first pre-season match against
the LA Galaxy who were in the middle of their season.

As a player Pep Guardiola won everything and replicated the success during the
2008/09 season, his first year as manager of FC Barcelona. Increíble. Achievements continued for
the young manager as he lifted the two following La Liga titles amongst other trophies.

Cantera,experiencia,golazos,juventud, garra y emoción es lo que tiene el campeonato de Pumas en
este Clausura 2011. El mejor equipo del torneo sin duda fue los Pumas de la UNAM, el mas grande de
los tornoes cortos .
Molto è gi stato detto, ma moltissimo si potrebbe e dovrebbe aggiungere per tessere le lodi di
un campione immenso come Lionel Messi. La pulce argentina, cresciuta nella cantera del Barçelona,
continua a far sognare i tifosi blaugrana e questa volta segnando ben due goals nell'andata di
semifinale di Champions league contro il Real di [.
In tonight's Champions League match against Shakhtar former Barcelona player Dmytro Chygrynskiy
will be tasked with marking Lionel Messi. Chygrynskiy also happens to be one of a long line of poor
transfer decisions that Barcelona have made in past couple of years.
Barcelona loves to note that its battle with Real Madrid is more than just soccer; it is almost
a clash of identities.
Last Thursday, I was invited by Armando and Elisa from Forza Fútbol to be on their podcast, and
the discussion centered around several topics: the state of La Liga in terms of overseas marketing,
the flourishing cantera youth academies throughout Spain, the controversies with the
upcoming La Liga TV contract agreement, the matches from Jornada 22 (Feb.
En partido de la jornada 6 del torneo Clausura del fútbol mexicano los pumas no defraudaron a
su afición y se lanzaron al frente aunque las Chivas inicio con todo y le anularon un gol por
supuesta falta al portero, después de eso Francisco Palencia hizo falta para después recibir una
dentro del area, fue un penal que Palencia cobro fatal y que Luis Michel atajo a dos tiempos.

With the tie already sealed in the first leg, Jose Mourinho picked six cantera players for the
Copa Del Rey return leg at Ciudad de Valencia against Levante. Real Madrid beat them 8-0 at the
Santiago Bernabeu just before Christmas, making the second leg a mere formality.
