Il calcio è bello soprattutto quando Davide batte Golia.

Alberto Paloschi, attaccante del Parma ma cresciuto nel vivaio rossonero; Nicola Pozzi, anche lui

should have received a second yellow card for a foul he committed in the second half of Inter's 2-1

This is a tremendous entry from Dave Clark of Better Soccer Coaching - read the entry below, as
well as a link to where you can see the video of a comedian's imitation of Fabio Capello's sideline

fury in the first 40 minutes of the World Cup qualifier between Kazakhstan and England. Click to continue reading...

quanto accaduto, nel posticipo serale di domenica scorsa, durante il focoso derby della Lanterna. I
colpi proibiti volati nel match del Ferraris, tra Genoa e Sampdoria (vinto tre a zero dai rossoblu
di Gasperini, in virtù della stupenda tripletta dell'argentino Milito) facevano presagire
squalifiche più pesanti, grazie all'uso della prova tv.

Ne tira fuori sempre una dal cilindro. Settant'anni e non sentirli. Un ragazzo, quando si presenta
in sala stampa, e diverte tutti con le sue battute, ma anche quando tira fuori quella grinta che ha
