This one could be ugly. Colorado are 8-4-1 at home, that lone loss coming in May against Los Angeles, a Los Angeles team that started the season red hot. It doesn't help that D.C. United's history of playing Colorado isn't exactly sparkling with success.

Here's a good a trivia question while you are watching the game on Sunday.

This sport particularly but also events like the World Baseball Classic and the Olympics connect us to the world beyond our shore. Soccer fans in particular are used to following the sport in Europe, sometimes in Latin America, and even more rarely in the other regional Federations. Be it the World Cup in South Africa, or this week's African Cup of Nations in Angola, the sport of soccer (by any name) has a means to connect us even slightly to the world around us.

That was what SAFFC's skipper-cum-custodian Shahril Jantan (picture above in foreground) said to this blogger before the start of the penalty-shootout that would determined who will join the elites of Asian club sides in the lucrative Asian Champions League.
And the 'keeper, who missed the last weekend's game against Sriwijaya due to suspension, got his wish at the end of the day after the S.

The MLS recently launched their new official league website - MLSsoccer.com. The website is visually more appealing than the previous site (mlsnet.com) and has increased content. Here is a quick look at the new website's features:

• Match Center - Each game is featured in three sections:

• 1) Preview - At look at the upcoming match, keys to the game for each club, and the latest injury reports.

Jamie Carragher believes that Pepe Reina has the capability to one day become a fine captain of Liverpool.
Reina recently inked a new six-year contract at Anfield and Carragher claims that the Spaniard has a natural aura of leadership that means players automatically look up to him.
"A six-year contract is virtually unheard of, so they must be giving him a few bob," Carragher quipped, speaking to LFC Weekly Magazine.

OK, with Lars out of the picture, that leaves the door open for me gaining world domination... MOWAHAHAHA! Anyway, this preview's a bit early because the Norwegian cup is also starting soon.

Now, for anyone unsure of how our cup works: Basically, for the first few rounds, the top teams will only meet teams from lower divisions, and the top teams will always play away too.

Match Details England-USA, Group C, Royal Bafokeng Stadium, Friday 12 June, 20.30 (local time) The much favored England is going against the less favored USA. Fabio Capello has instilled confidence in the team following their failure to qualify for Euro 2008. They have all their games which proves their skill and capability and have just lost a [.

It took longer than expected, but Manchester City have finally completed the signing of Lazio left back Aleksandar Kolarov.

City had been expected to wrap up a deal for the Serbia international for much of this month, but it‘s only now becoming official after the player completed his medical and was granted a work permit.

Manchester City have completed the signing of Lazio left-back Aleksandar Kolarov after agreeing an £14.1 million deal.

Roberto Mancini spoke to the Man City's web site regradging the new signing, and confirmed that Kolarov's arrival doesn't mean that Wayne Bridge will be leaving Eastlands:"I want two top class players for each position,"

Mancini became aware of Kolarov's ability when he managed Inter Milan in Seria A.

Flying is not Bendtner's forte

In the end qualification to the next round was not secured just yet. Will this result hamper our progress? I don't think it will. Granted the performance was a bit dire but there's absolutely nothing to fret. I'll put my house down on us advancing to the next stage.

Liverpool 2 Chelsea 0 Torres 11 Torres 44 Well Done Liverpool, that was more than a welcome 3 points for us being both unexpected pre-match and versus target, but it was a deserved well fought victory and one that shows some of the capability of our team when applied. Hodgson made a few changes to [.

WANTED: a footy philosophy. Or wins. You know... whatever.

Leading up to Jürgen Klinsmann's appointment as Toronto FC's consultant, and indeed throughout his first press conference, the importance of finding a Toronto-specific football philosophy has been trumpeted. In fact, that very conference and Klinsmann's job so far has featured very little in the way of facts and has relied heavily on this romanticised view of team-building.

The FA have announced that building on the National Football Centre in Burton will begin in January, to be completed in 2012.

Building started way back in 2001, but due to the development of Wembley Stadium, which cost over 750m, it looked like the project would be scrapped altogether.

It is sad that the Roar don't give fans the opportunity to say goodbye to players. Heart allowed John Aloisi to say goodbye to is Adelaide home town and it worked a treat for them.
I met Reinaldo at his first public training session for the Roar. Miron introduced me and my son to him. He was very friendly but spoke no English.

Another day, another player linked. Only this time it appears that it could be more than just normal tabloid fantasy.

Quotes from West Ham chairman and pornography king, David Sullivan, suggest Spurs have made a bid for Scott Parker that has been refused. Rumours are West Ham have offered the 29 year old former McDonald's advert kid a 75k per week 5 year deal to stay at Upton Park.
