The Goalkeeper and the Void by Martz Azparren

Featuring the words of Basque sculptor Eduardo Chillida, The Goalkeeper and the Void was a Jury winning film at the 2011 Machinima Expo, and primarily uses footage from the video game Pro Evolution Soccer (Winning Eleven).

The little Mexican wizard Carlos Vela is very happy to be on loan at Real Sociedad in Spain, and it was revealed this week that he is set to ask Arsene Wenger to allow him to stay away from the Emirates and continue playing for the La Liga minnows. Now today he has explained his [...]

The young Mexican striker Carlos Vela was considered one of Arsenal's hottest young prospects just a few years ago, but Arsene Wenger never seemed to trust him enough to be a regular first-team player despite some excellent performances when given a chance. He certainly managed to annoy Wenger at times (remember the time he forgot [.

Not a surprise to hear that Sevilla have hired Jose Miguel Gonzalez, aka Michel, to become their next coach after the firing of Marcelino Garcia Toral on Monday.

Michel will automatically receive an extension to the contract should he guide the 11th-placed side to UEFA Champions League qualification.

Football is the world's game, but like any sport, it's appeal is not fully universal. The Internet, meanwhile, has proven that two things are more popular than all else: pornography and cats. And since mixing pornography with football would run against numerous public indecency laws in various parts of the world, that means football executives have no choice but to add cats to the game in order to push it to the next level.

I'm willing to bet your gut reaction to the news that Sergio Busquets got well and truly knobbled in a challenge with Real Sociedad's Carlos Martinez during the home side's 2-1 win at the Nou Camp last night was somewhere along the lines of 'what goes around, comes around' but that doesn't make the deep laceration that the Barca midfielder suffered any less grotesque.

We've all made jokes about Sergio Busquets' habit of falling down and clutching his face for no good reason, but this time it was his knee and he wasn't faking.

A mere seven minutes after entering Barcelona's 2-1 win over Real Sociedad in the 76th minute, Busquets was accidentally stepped on by Carlos Martinez, opening up a deep gash under his right knee.

A goal from Sergio Ramos was enough to gave Real Madrid a slender 1-0 win against city rivals Getafe to maintain their seven-point lead over title rivals Barcelona at the top of the Spanish Liga.

The visitors dominated possession but created few clear-cut opportunities and the match was eventually settled by Ramos's 18th-minute goal, the Spanish international defender meeting Mesut Özil's corner with a flying header that powered into the top right coner.

Arsenal's on loan striker Carlos Vela must see an openining in the Gunner's midfield, as an enforcer, whatch how he takes out the linesman with the minimum of fuss during Real Sociedad's 5-1 win at the week-end, and applause must also go to the official for doing a Messi and not a Ronaldo.

Barcelona goalkeeper Victor Valdes says that his side cannot afford to drop any more points if they are to successfully defend their La Liga title this season.

Barca were held to a 0-0 draw against Villarreal on Saturday, a result that now leaves them seven points behind league leaders Real Madrid, who recorded a 3-1 win over Real Zaragoza at the weekend.

Arsenal striker Carlos Vela, currently on loan at Real Sociedad, isn't renowned for his tackling. But having found himself on the receiving end of a trip from a Sporting Gijon player, the Mexican experienced immediate catharsis by being propelled into his own lunge on the linesman. The match official clearly bore no grudge with Vela, [.

In which Carlos Vela, formerly of the Arsenal reserves and now on loan at Real Sociedad, is shunted over on the touchline by Sporting Gijon's Alejandro Galvez during the former club's 5-1 routing of the latter on Sunday evening which, all-in-all, wouldn't have been too much of an issue had the linesman not been 'keeping up with the play' quite so admirably.

In the second half of Real Sociedad's 5-1 win over Sportin Gijon on Sunday, Carlos Vela was tackled from behind by Alejandro Galvez right at the touchline, sending him barreling into the linesman. Everyone was alright and the linesman even helped Vela back to his feet (despite the fact that Vela took out his).

21.01.2012 - Después de 8 meses (21.05.2011, tres de Aguero) el Atlético de Madrid vuelve a ganar de visitante. Pasaron nevadas, lluvias, soles, lunas, decepciones, jugadores y técnicos...
Y ganó claramente (0-4) en casa de una Real Sociedad que traía siete partidos de invicto.

José Callejón scored the winner with six minutes remaining as Real Madrid came back from a goal down to beat Mallorca 2-1 and extend their Liga lead to eight points.

Tomer Hemed's first-half header threatened to send José Mourinho's side to only their second defeat in 24 matches in all competitions until Gonzalo Higuaín equalised with a shot which was helped over goalkeeper Dudu Aouate by the sliding Fernando Tissone.

It's fair to say that Real Sociedad 'keeper Enaut Zubikarai had what's known in technical terms as a 'stinker' last night. With his side 2-0 up from the first leg of their Copa del Rey tie with Real Mallorca and going one-nil up in the second leg after 16 minutes, Zubikarai then conceded four goal in the space of seven minutes before half-time.

Enaut to know better This goalkeeping howler was arguably the least of Real Sociedad's worries as they lost 6-1 to Mallorca last night. But it's funny nonetheless. You know the routine made famous by Shay Given by know: goalkeeper thinks his penalty area is clear, drops the ball to the ground, and elusive [.

Real Madrid set up a potential Copa Del Rey quarter-final against FC Barcelona after a 1-0 victory against Málaga earned the Whites a 4-2 aggregate win.

It was a tense night as Malaga only needed a 1-0 victory in order to advance on the away goals rule. In a very tactical first half the best chance fell to Sergio Ramos, whose header right before half-time just missed the target.

Football resumed in Spain after the short winter break, and it did not take long for the first upset of 2012 to occur, as a late equalizer from Espanyol in the Barcelona derby dented Barca's title hopes.

Real Madrid started off 2012 like they ended 2011, scoring goals. This week Madrid beat Granada 5-1 with Karim Benzema scoring twice and Cristiano Ronaldo hitting his 21st league goal of the season.

Barcelona moved a step closer to a possible Copa del Rey quarter-final showdown with Real Madrid after winning the first leg of their last-16 tie against Osasuna 4-0.

Barca beat Osasuna 8-0 at home in the La Liga back in September and the Pamplona-based side must have feared another mauling when Cesc Fabregas netted twice in the opening 18 minutes at the Nou Camp the second a superb chip.

SPANISH FOOTBALL action tonight with two matches of the SPANISH CUP - "Copa del Rey" - 1º st leg last 16 team stage. Here are the final results & the scorers. Real Sociedad score against Mallorca REAL SOCIEDAD defeated REAL MALLORCA 2 - 0 & have the tie well in hand. A deserved victory with goals from ARANBURU in the 17th min & AGIRRETXE in the 55th min.

Yes the Clasico was not the only game played in La Liga this weekend. Here is a review of the other games played.

Third placed Valencia looked to have the points wrapped up at Betis on Saturday, before two injury time goals from Ruben Castro turned the result around to give the Seville side their first win in 11 games, winning 2-1.

FC Barcelona won the match-up of the weekend, if not the season to date, with a thrilling 3-1 victory against arch-rival Real Madrid. Goals from Alexis Sanchez, Xavi and Cesc Fabregas helped the reigning champions erase Real Madrid's three-point hold on first place in La Liga (though Real Madrid still has a game in hand).

In the latest in a seemingly endless conveyor belt of dubious transfer rumours, Liverpool have been linked with Real Sociedad's 20-year old defender Inigo Martinez. According to The People, which doesn't cite any sources for its 'story', Liverpool have "sent scouts to watch the 20-year-old several times this season and will continue to monitor his form with a view to a bid in the summer".

Que España es ahora mismo una potencia a nivel internacional en el fútbol no es ya objeto de dudas. Tras ser campeona de Europa y del Mundo en 2008 y 2010 respectivamente ahora parte como una de las grandes favoritas para el nuevo campeonato europeo que se disputará el próximo año entre Ucrania y Polonia.

Mexico's Carlos Vela scored a contender for the goal of the season not just in La Liga but the whole of Europe. Vela, a former Arsenal player, has failed to impress or hold a place not just with the Gunners but a couple of other European clubs.

His scoring record is rather unimpressive for an attacker but this stunning overhead goal could change everything for Vela.

Carlos Vela no es el delantero mas exitoso en estos momentos, tampoco es el mas humilde, lo peor de todo no es el mas constante , es mas estaba desaparecido del mapa goleador, pero esta jornada volvió a recordarnos que en el existe talento.
El gol de chilena para que su equipo, la Real Sociedad, se repusiera de un marcador adverso 2-1 y venciera 3-2 al Málaga esta causando sensación en España y por supuesto en México.

El golazo de chilena de Carlos Vela [video]

Carlos Vela anoto un golazo en la victoria de su equipo la Real Sociedad cuando recibían al Málaga esta mañana.

El Málaga ganaba dos goles por uno en los minutos finales del partido cuando el mexicano prendió un remate de chilena que mando guardar la pelota al fondo de las redes para empatar el partido, Ifran al minuto 91 anotaría el tercer gol de la Real Sociedad para consumar la voltereta y los tres puntos.

Tim Howard and Everton find themselves in a logjam in the middle of the English Premier League standings, but if the U.S. national team goalkeeper and his team want to make a run at the top teams in England, they will need a win today against Stoke City to make that happen.

Everton is currently in a four-way tie in the middle of the Premier League table, but the Toffees hold two games in hand on the pack, and wins in those two games could pull Everton within range of arch-rival Liverpool, among others.

As the ability to mimic Hollywood for its dramatic flair and theatrics goes, this surely has to be the goal of the year, right? The score level in stoppage time, Real Sociedad's Inigi Martinez swung one from his own half into the back of the net for the 3-2 winner. Which might've happened in a video game once, but surely not on an actual pitch.

Spectacular SPANISH FOOTBALL League goal yesterday by REAL SOCIEDAD player IÑIGO MARTINEZ in the 92nd min. Here is the context. REAL BETIS vs REAL SOCIEDAD, the score 2 - 2 & with the whistle to be blown, Martinez fires a 50mts shot that becomes goal, the winner & gives 3 points to his team. Watch the Video:
