Lionel Messi returned to goalscoring form for Barcelona, whilst Carlos Tevez simply returned for
Manchester City and scored as well. Gonzalo Higuaín got another two for Real Madrid, Lisandro
López won a match for Lyon and in Serie A, whilst Diego Milito scored his fifteenth of the season,
Catania only had seven Argentines in [.

101greatgoals has unearthed football's latest musical 'crossover' star, Neil Danns. I question the
crossover bit because from everything you hear about Crystal Palace's financial situation, Neil
simply may be supplementing his Championship paycheck to keep the electricity on. You can judge for
yourselves I won't be buying his album, and I'm sure Eric Clapton [.

Maradona è stato ed è spesso colpevolizzato per l'andamento tentennante dell'Argentina,
qualificatasi in extremis, nonostante i tanti campioni presenti nell'undici sudamericano, ai
Mondiali sudafricani sulla sirena (decisivo il gol di Bolatti contro l'Uruguay).
Poco gioco e tanta confusione. Insomma, ai tifosi e agli addetti ai lavori non piace la gestione
tecnica di Dieguito.

The World Cup is played on a razor's edge. In every tournament, national pride, personal emotion,

Four Four Two Magazine is reporting that Maradona is crazy. Wow! It only took the publication
sixteen years to figure that out. Even though Maradona is has many skills, he lacks some
fundamental component... sanity. In his five decades on this earth, the player has managed to get
himself in more trouble than good, earning his football bad-boy reputation.

The series moves on to the nineteen-eighties for an in-depth look at the players who took centre
stage in Spain and Mexico.
The 1980sThe two tournaments which took place in the 1980s are remembered for different reasons. Spain was
the fantastic setting for some fabulous football from a resurgent Brazil, one example of blatant
match fixing, cruel treatment for a rising star, and one of the most memorable goal celebrations.

La selección local jugó su primer amistoso del año en San Juan contra Costa Rica, un rival que
resultó ser más complicado de lo esperado.
El primer tiempo del partido fue interesante, al equipo de Maradona le costó acomodarse en el
campo, Costa Rica manejó la pelota en los primeros minutos y el gol tempranero de Sosa llegó por
un error del arquero que no pudo despejar un centro, el viento le jugó en contra, el principito
pincha solo tuvo que cabecear la pelota al fondo del arco para poner el 1 a 0.

So Argentinean journalists asked The Dona how he was feeling about his "new
fatherhood" status and he merely laughed in response! Tio, is that all we're getting?
Listen, father of Giannina, if it's true you must embrace it. Although it makes

En un partido indescifrable, donde el sonido ambiente no lograba opacar los gritos de los
entrenadores y el silbato del árbitro, una Argentina alternativa le ganó 3-2 a una Costa Rica
alternativa mostrando pifias inverosímiles, estremecedores desacoples e inseguridades temerarias
más la preocupante lesión de Matheu, el debut y despedida de Walter Ervitti, la lentitud de
Campestrini, las ráfagas de Clemente Rodríguez, la categoría de Sosa, las limitaciones de
Insúa, las dudas de Monzón, las ganas de Gaitán, la brújula rota de Mercier y el timing de
Diego
60% cocinado Maradona ante las cámaras.

why they will not be.

OK, I know that you have probably seen this video hundreds of times but what the heck it stills
sends shivers each time I see and listen to it. When you combine the genius of Maradona and the
passion of Victor Hugo Morales (who by the way is Uruguayan ), probably the best football
commentator that ever was, you just get a pure moment of magic.

Llegamos en Retrofootball al Mundial de Italia 90. Cambiamos de década y la
selección española afrontaba una nueva participación en una Copa del Mundo con
la ilusión de que fuera nuestro Mundial.
El Mundial de Italia 90 fue el Mundial de "Totò" Schilacci, de una gran
Alemania, de las lágrimas de Maradona, del "me lo merezco" de
Míchel, de la gran actuación general de Martín Vázquez, de
los silbidos de San Paolo a Maradona y aquel polémico Brasil-Argentina de octavos
de final, donde Branco, tras beber de un bidón de agua que "gentilmente" le ofreció el masajista
de Argentina, comenzó a marearse.

El 10 tiene carisma, el 10 es de la gente, a el 10 lo aman todos, pero realmente las fotos y las

apenas se podía mantener parado en el palco del club de sus amores, el que lucha eternamente por

If ever there was compelling evidence that the law is an ass it is this....
Article 77a of Fifa Disciplinary Code states that the disciplinary committee is responsible for
"sanctioning serious infringements which have escaped the match officials' attention". Henry's
handball clearly escaped the attention of Hansson and his assistants, yet it could not be described
as "serious" - a term which is defined in Article 47 of the code and which
incidentally covers handballs intended to prevent a goal, but not those involved in
creating one.
