Germany have finally gotten around to launching their new change strip for Euro 2012 and, as we
stated when it was originally leaked ages and ages ago, it's a work of true retro
kunst harking back to their beautiful green strip from 1972 and marking
the 40th anniversary of their first European Championship win.
While Ivory Coast captain Didier Drogba is sequestered away with his teammates in a luxury hotel
for the African Cup of Nations, his mother, Clotilde is preparing traditional west African meals in
an outdoor kitchen for a group of 60 fans who traveled to Equatorial Guinea for the tournament.
El Balón de Oro (en francés,
Ballon d'Or) era un premio individual que desde 1956 otorgaba
anualmente la revista France Football al mejor jugador europeo y que jugaban en Europa. A partir de
1995 se amplió a todos los futbolistas que actuaban en torneos europeos y desde 2007 el Balón de
Oro pasó a premiar al mejor jugador del planeta.
Former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez recently revealed that Steven Gerrard is the best player he's
ever managed, but who does Benitez himself look up to? Who is his greatest footballing inspiration?
The answer will definitely come as no surprise.Speaking on Spanish Radio, Benitez stated:"I knew
about Pele; I watched Maradona and Johann Cryuff, but my favourite was always Franz Beckenbauer".
Es gibt Interviews, die kriegen erst im Laufe der Jahre den Status „Legendär". Ein solches ist
ganz sicher das Interview des jungen Reinhold Beckmann mit Teamchef Franz Beckenbauer nach dem
Spiel Deutschland gegen Holland bei der WM 1990. Die einen sprechen heute „Augenschäden", andere
von „provoziertem Augenkrebs", gemeint ist damit aber ganz klar die modische [.
"A good ball by Dixon finding Smith onto Thomas charging through the midfield, Thomas it's up
for grabs now. Thomas , right at the end. An unbelievable end to the season." My favourite goal
of all time, probably every Arsenal fans favourite goal. There have been plenty more beautiful
(TH v MU 2000) but certainly none more dramatic.
Los primeros 30 inmortales del futbol ya duermen en el Salón de la Fama. Las viejas glorias

New Norfolk SharX players Brady Bryant and Miguel Ferrer will have something in common with the
likes of Pele, Franz Beckenbauer and Johan Cruff.
All will have worn Admiral uniforms.
The Norfolk SharX announced Monday that Admiral, the original British football brand to America and
England's top teams, will be the official uniform supplier to the Sharx for the 2011-2012 Major
Indoor Soccer League season.

A FIFA panel is considering a proposal to make referees more benevolent towards players who foul
in the penalty area.
The FIFA Task Force Football 2014 led by Franz Beckenbauer agreed that the so-called "triple
punishment" of penalty, red card and suspension is too severe.
"A penalty is enough if it is a simple foul or a tackle where you try to get the ball but you
are a second late," said Beckenbauer.
As football news goes, it's pretty vanilla, but making red cards in the box a more rare
occasion, leaving goalkeepers more leeway to explore their more rambunctious selves in and around
the general ankle region of attackers.
There's also apparently a rule which says no image but that one to the left can be used in a
story on red cards on a football-related site.
Franz Beckenbauer to lead FIFA task force to make offside rule simpler to
understand
Changes to the offside law are needed to make it simpler to understand, a FIFA task force
announced on Tuesday.

Aston Villa's Der Kaiser listens to the resounding laughter following Alex McLeish's
interview
It's not often that you hear the names Emile Heskey and Franz Beckenbauer in the same sentence,
and it's even less often that you hear the former England man being actually compared to the German
great.
Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina has revealed the details of an explosive row he had with Anfield
stalwart Jamie Carragher, which spilled over into the dressing room after beginning on the
pitch.
Reina and Carragher, both mainstays of the Reds rearguard since the Spanish shot-stopper joined the
club in 2005, clashed in an unnamed game because of a disagreement about passing options.
Some big stars keep playing till their impact on the game fades away slowly overtime. Maradona,
Romario, Bebeto, Peter Shilton are some examples. I remember Lothar Matthaus in an interview
stating that one of the mistakes he did in his career was to play too late for the national side,
especially the Euro 2000 when Germany had paled appearance and linked to his name.
The U.S. team has been based in Ft. Lauderdale this week and has had a chance to catch up on the
latest incarnation of the Ft. Lauderdale Strikers. Coached by former Fire assistant Daryl Shore,
the Strikers are currently in the semifinals of the NASL playoffs.
That got us thinking about the good ole' days, and we reached to former U-20 head coach Thomas
Rongen, who played here from 1981-83 alongside former legends like Gerd Muller, the German
international who scored the second most goals in World Cup history, and Peruvian star Teofilo
Cubillas.

With recent accusations of Alan Pardew's alleged long ball tactics, I wanted to ask the question:
do Newcastle United play the long-ball game and does it matter? After England's 1-1 draw against
the United States in the 2010 World Cup Franz Beckenbauer had this to say: "What I saw from the
English in their 1-1 [.

Is anybody else tickled by this careening notion that Jurgen Klinsmann is some tactical
nincompoop?
As the story goes, Klinsmann was a kind of inspirational cheerleader in his days with the German
national team – a darn successful time, it must be said. Accounts credit the German innovator
with shaking up a rigid cultural order through bright, modern and clever techniques on the training
ground and behind the scenes.
Jurgen Klinsmann connected with Scott French to discuss his coaching influences, as well as to
refute some of the criticism he recently received from his tenure with the German national
team.
"I had wonderful coaches throughout my career, from an [Arsene] Wenger [at AS Monaco] to a
[Cesar Luis] Menotti [at Sampdoria] to a [Franz] Beckenbauer [with West Germany's champs and at
Bayern] to a [Berti] Vogts [with Germany's national team] to [Ossie] Ardilles [at Tottenham and
Giovanni] Trapattoni [with Bayern] -- they've won everything.

Tras su inauguración en Pachuca, México, el Salón de la Fama del Futbol Nacional e Internacional
tuvo este martes 16 de agosto su primer gran evento con la "Primera Selección de Investidos" que
reunió a grandes personalidades de los ámbitos futbolístico, periodístico y empresarial para
deliberar y seleccionar durante un lapso aproximado de 3 horas sobre los 30 futbolistas históricos
del futbol nacional e internacional que merecían ser reconocidos en esta primera generación.
Ich muss meine Leistung immer bestätigen und versuchen gut zu halten. Was andere Leute sagen,
das ehrt mich natürlich. Aber ich muss mich auf meine Leistung konzentrieren.

On July 13, Brazilian Carlos Alberto Torres arrived in New York City in the midst of a blackout.
Not just any blackout, but the infamous 1977 blackout that was marked by extreme violence and
looting in the Big Apple. Quite the warm welcome for Pele's former teammate at Santos FC, a member
of the 1970 World Cup winning side, and widely regarded as one of the games best defenders.
Hay momentos en la historia de México dignas de repetir y de emocionarse cada vez que uno las
cuenta, y aunque esta historia es de fútbol , el deporte es lo mas importante de lo menos
importante como reza un dicho futbolero.
El jueves en la tarde se vivió uno de los momentos mas emocionantes que haya tenido cualquier
selección de fútbol mexicana.
A young #22, Tony Glavin, dribbles the ball.
A young man is picked up in a chauffeured Rolls-Royce to sign a new contract at the age of 19
and who shortly thereafter was keeping company with international football/soccer stars. Jumpcut
thirty years later to see that same man driving a school bus that's seen better days (better
decades, actually) full of unheralded young soccer players.
Dietrofront. Non ci sar nessuna gara d'addio, almeno per adesso, per Michael Ballack, con la

centrocampista tedesco non ci sar .
It's competition time Franz Beckenbauer's are big boots to fill, but you can give it your best shot
thanks to our new competition. Do you want to play like Der Kaiser? Beckenbauer knew exactly how to

Everyone 'knows' that Franz Beckenbauer was brilliant. In a recent Guardian poll he was the
first defender selected in their greatest team of all time.
I think everyone is right Beckenbauer really was an astonishing player but I wonder how many of
the voters had actually seen him play before making their choice?
Ach, der Beckenbauer Franz! Mädels fand er immer schon gut und auch mit seinen Jungs konnte er
verdammt gut, damals bei der WM 1990 in Italien. Weltmeister ist er geworden und von seinen
Teamansprachen, seine Motivationskünsten und seiner taktischen Kenntnis schwärmen sie heute noch
alle. Irgendwann jedoch beendete er seine Karriere auf und neben dem [.
26.05.2011 - Aún hoy, a 17 años del Mundial USA 94, empresarios estadounidenses siguen
armando el rompecabezas para viralizar el soccer en el país del baseball (el fútbol americano, el
hockey sobre hielo y el basquet).
Si nos vamos a 1970 el panorama era más que desolador... la convocatoria a estadios no superaba

With the announcement of two high-profile exhibition matches, Reading United provided another
example of its expanding national reputation.
Reading is set to play the United States Under-17 National Team on May 22, followed by the New
York Cosmo's Under-23 team two months later. The Harrisburg City Islanders and Philadelphia Union
are already scheduled to visit Exeter's Don Thomas Stadium in the coming weeks.
Football and music often goes hand in hand. Unfortunately for modern spectators, this relationship

Auffassung hat er der Mannschaft eine Struktur gegeben. Fußball van Gaal. Er hat zumindest eine
Philosophie und das hat die Mannschaft verstanden.
