win over Valencia at the Camp Nou. Goals by Cesc Fabregas and a late strike by midfield maestro
Xavi helped seal a 2-0 win (3-1 on aggregate) for the Spanish champions. Pep Guardiola's men will

What a strange season. Newcastle is winning... a lot, they have international teammates Cisse and
Ba playing together up top and scoring with regularity (well, Cisse scored in his debut yesterday),
and Aston Villa has to rely on ex-Spur Robbie "I'm too old for this sh.." Keane to put one on the
board.
Who's the winner when no one wants to win? Chelsea went up 3-0, thanks in part to an own goal by
Evans, then quick goals from Mata and Luiz. Switching to cruise control, Chelsea forgot to realize
that none of their wheels were on well and it all just came apart.They gave up two penalties in 11
minutes and then a final equalizer by Chicharito dooms Chelsea to forever be looking up at another

Yes, I admit that I enjoyed American Football today, Super Bowl Sunday, but in the rest of the
world, Association Football was played as usual. Especially in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea,
co-hosts of the 2012 African Nations Cup.Yesterday, powerful co-favorites Ivory Coast defeated
co-host Equatorial Guinea 3-0.
Ever have one of those days where you wish you hadn't gotten out of bed? Steve Kean is having one
of those seasons. Arsenal, came into the game without a win in 2012. Blackburn came in sucking. It
was bound to get ugly and it did. Quickly.Oh, where to begin... Van Persie with a goal in the 2nd
minute to start out his hat-trick.
A lot less thrilling than it sounded. A scoreless first half, an own goal by Phil Neville then a
late last gasp goal by Anichebe preserves a tie, and both teams walk away with 1pt.Video: Fox

win it all.
