Cristian Chavez scored the decisive 90th-minute winner for Godoy Cruz as they defeated Boca Juniors 3-2 at the Bombonera stadium.

Our great win against the Brum was truly marred by The Modfather's leg fracturing and Ledley suffering a groin injury.

I suppose the one bit of good news is that Woody came through his first training session on Friday. I'm not sure how long he'll still be out for though, but seeing as we don't play for two weeks, he could be fit in time for our biggest test yet, Manchester United at home, although I don't think he'll be match-fit.

First off - Beulah's match report is up!� (This is on the Breakers' win over the Freedom ... which ranked somewhere below a broken windshield in Beulah's book ... understandably!)� Sorry to hear about your windshield!� As for Abby not getting up - that was a huge gripe of mine (and my compatriots) back in the WUSA days when "Get up Abby" was a favorite refrain when the Freedom were in town.

Son yıllardakine benzer yine oyun olarak sıkıcı bir Superclasico izledik dün akşam. Tribünlerden gelen tezahürat sesleri ile önce Palermo ardından da Gallardo'nun attığı harika goller dışında izlenilecek bir şey yoktu.

There are some advantages when the Internet, telephones and computer system go down simultaneously at work (keep in mind I work at a newspaper): I could remain blissfully ignorant Tuesday of the stunning Liverpool-Chelsea UEFA Champions League game until I could go home and watch it (ah, I miss the pre-blogging days some times) held on the eve of English football's most tragic day and with memories of the even more amazing Liverpool comeback in the 2005 UEFA Champions League final still fresh.

• If Christian Miles describes something as "courageous" one more time, I'll lose it. I'm definitely adding that to the Christian Miles Drinking Game. One drink for every time he says "courageous", finish your drink when he describes something as amazing when he sounds like he'd rather wear black and listen to Depeche Mode.
