Nothing screams "STUD!" more than this photo of Carlos Tevez and his fans at last week's Angel Cabrera (Argentinean golfer) Classic in Cordoba. While you were out shopping at Tesco's Express for Christmas last week, Tevez decided it'd be best to assume the role of a professional golfer.

Legendär ist auf jeden Fall auch die Pressekonferenz von Christoph Daum.

Kurz darauf tauchte er dann ab und die deutsche [.

Das aber war damals und seitdem hofft und betet ganz Österreich innständig, dass ihnen irgendein Gott [.

Brazil's second outing in the Copa America sees them go up against Paraguay in the city of Cordoba. Despite drawing their opening fixture, Mano Menezes has ignored the pressure for change and has stuck with the side that drew 0-0 with Venezuela.

It was not supposed to be this way. Argentina with Lionel Messi and Carlos tevez were supposed top restore pride to Argentina football by winning the Copa America at home. Instead they are in danger of not even reaching the quarter-finals after being held to a 0-0 draw by Colombia.

Argentina were simply poor against Columbia and could easily have lost if Dayro Moreno not missed a sitter after on 25 minutes, with the goal at his mercy following a mix-up in the Argentinian defence.

19.06.2011 - Jornada inédita y recordable en el fútbol argentino. Con el torneo definido una fecha antes (18º) y Vélez campeón, las urgencias y ventajas determinaron que se televisaran 5 partidos en simultáneo.

As you may or possibly may not be aware, the draw for the Spanish Tercera Division play-offs (for the right to play in the Spanish third tier, Segunda Division B) were made earlier this week.

Strangely, the president of one of the clubs involved, Pablo Cordoba of Alcobendas Sport, was entrusted to draw the balls for his side's half of the draw arriving at the plinth with a huge, sh*t-eating grin on his face only to be *apparently* told which ball to pull out of the goldfish bowl by the honcho in charge.

This week, there are few goals, that are really difficult to pick a single best goal among them.
There are 4 wonderful goals, let's start from Qatar:
Juninho, the former Lyon Brazilian star, scored an amazing free kick at the age 36 with his Qatari team Al-Rayyan vs. Al-Gharafa
The second is from Argentina when Claudio Riano scored sensational goal for Talleres Cordoba against Alumni.

Non è bastato un ottimo primo tempo e l'ennesimo goal di Samuel Eto'o per domare un Brescia gagliardo e sempre nel vivo del gioco, nel primo anticipo della 29° giornata di Serie A. Anzi, nel finale di match, raggiunto il pari con Caracciolo (merito soprattutto dell'inconcepibile colpo di testa di Cordoba che rimette in gioco [.

Internazionale were made to battle for a place in the semi finals of the Coppa Italia; they faced Napoli in the cauldron that is the San Paulo. Both teams fielded their strongest available line ups, with Inter deciding to pair new signing Ranocchia with Cordoba at the heart of their defence. But despite fielding such a strong team, Napoli were the better team.

Probable Formations Matchday 20 Italian Serie A Napoli vs Fiorentina Napoli (3-4-2-1): DeSanctis, Campagnaro, Cannavaro, Aronica, Maggio, Gargano, Pazienza, Dossena, Sosa, Lavezzi, Cavani Fiorentina (4-3-3): Boruc, DeSilvestri, Gamberlini, Kroldrup, Pasqual, Donadel, Montolivo, D'Agostino, Ljajic, Santana, Gilardino Inter vs Bologna Inter (4-3-1-2): Castellazzi, Maicon, Lucio, Cordoba,.

Mh, da war doch was im Jahr 1978. Bei der WM in Argentinien gab es die Schmach von Córdoba und wir dürfen uns sogar heute noch mit den alten Geschichten herumschlagen. Das aber hat jetzt ein Ende, denn Córdoba ist nicht mehr Córdoba! Wie kommt das? Ja, die Argentinier sind uns hier sehr entgegengekommen und [.

MADRID, Spain Real Madrid, cushioned by an 8-0 first leg lead, secured their place in the Spanish Cup quarterfinals on Thursday despite a 2-0 defeat in the return match at Levante. Levante's two second-half goals by Xisco Nadal and Sergio Gonzalez were not enough to overturn Real's huge advantage secured over the Valencia-based side [.
