Sono quattro le squadre che possono festeggiare, con due giornate d'anticipo, la qualificazione agli ottavi di finale della prestigiosa competizione continentale.

Despite the plethora of Champions League games available to me this week I flicked my sports channel over to the game in Milan to see whether the Milanistas could re-create their spectacular victory in the Bernabeu two weeks ago. And, despite their failure to upset the football betting odds and re-enact their Madrid heroics following 90 scrappy but passionate minutes, there were still signs that they have turned the corner.

As I let you know back when I posted up this year's FFT100, I'm a bit of a junkie for lists. They are utterly meaningless, and yet compelling at the same time. With it being the end of the decade, there are tonnes of lists of the best albums, films, videos, celebrities etc floating around. [...] Click to continue reading...

Another round. Games working out as predicted except for Man U 3 3 CSKA Moscow which I really thought would go to Manchester. And of course Barcelona's inability to beat Kazan but they were not playing at home (if that even serves as an excuse!). The big derby AC Milan vs. Real Madrid turned out quite well even with teh 1-1 tie (and I see a light in the dark for Ronaldinho there is hope).

Ronaldo? Andy Reid? A bloated Ronaldinho after a night on the town? Hardly.

Real Madrid came into this game knowing that they were yet to beat Milan in their own backyard, and that is how the record stayed, as the sides finished the game level-pegging.

The same way the U20 World Cup generated some analysis, the failure of the U17 deserves even more talk. First of all, being eliminated in group that had Mexico, Switzerland and Japan is a shame. There is simply no excuse.

This pathetic elimination was so bad that no projections for the future can be made.

A few nice goals this week, but nothing extraordinary. Giuseppe Mascara scored one of his trademark wonder-goals, and Marco Borriello got back on the scoresheet with 2 goals (the second a nice scissor kick) after almost a year. Diego Milito got back to his scoring ways as well after being absent through injury, and Mirko Vucinic finally scored his first goal of the season.

Milan continued their good form earning another win in what was a very professional display from Leo's boys. It was Ronaldinho who again was the creative spark creating both goals for Marco Borriello. The win capped of a fine month which saw our club climb up the table from 12th position to 4th, just six [.

Nell'anticipo serale di Serie A, il Milan vuole cancellare l'amarezza per la rimonta subita al San Paolo (era in vantaggio per 2 a 0 contro il Napoli) e conquistare l'intera posta in palio. Ma l'ostacolo di questa sera, il Parma di Guidolin, è un cliente particolarmente scomodo per i rossoneri. Il tecnico veneto sembra aver trovato l'alchimia giusta e la coppia d'attacco, costituita dal bulgaro Bojinov e il talentuoso (scuola Milan) Paloschi, è davvero temibile.

"Henrik Larsson always scores." The clip shows Celtic fighting back through Larsson against Porto in a pulsating 2003 UEFA Cup final.

Dunga announced today the players who will play the last 2 matches of the year (against England and Oman). And he had a few surprises. Given that he decided not to call players from Brazilian clubs (and therefore was unable to call Adriano and Diego Tardelli), he called forward Hulk. But he wasn't the only surprise.
