What caught my attention recently is the name of the stadium that is hosting a game that I am watching at the moment of Peru vs. Colombia game in Cordoba Province, it is Mario Kempes Stadium.
I thought that it is very interesting and a great way of honoring the legendary players by naming stadiums after them, may be more touching than building a statue like Eusebio or giving "Sir" title like that of Bobby Charlton or Alex Ferguson.

The 2022 host nation said the evidence put forward so far was false, unsubstantiated and coming from a whisteblower who is probably a former employee "with a significant axe to grind."

Cristiano Ronaldo made a history today when he scored twice in an 8-1 victory for Real Madrid vs. Almeria. He became the first ever player to score 40 goals in the La Liga history in a single season. I am not a big fan of Cristiano, but I have to admit respecting his wonderful skills and abilities. He scored 40 goals out of 102 goals for Real in the La Liga, this is just overwhelming impressive.

When I saw this video and saw it is about Boca Juniors, I thought this should be at one of the craziest and most passionate places on the planet of football, in Argentina. I directly recalled clips showing 1978 World Cup finals and the "paper rain" from the fans. I thought it must be one of the most crazy derbies or Libertadores finals.

Messi qualified as a Super-Star

Super Star title in the world of football should not be used a lot, and in my opinion, should be given very conservatively with players such as Platini, Cruyff, Zidane, Ronaldo1, Beckenbauer, Bobby Charlton .......
Messi at the age of 23, going to another country for the intention of playing against their team, but then missing the game because of light injury, and still ending up by a hero, with so many people asking for his autograph.

The way that Klaus Augenthaler left the green fields can be a very good story for a light drama movie. The guy who had great career with Bayern Munich, which was his club since he was 18 years old till he retired at 1991. He had only 27 appearances with the national team in 7 years, but really very valuable 27 caps (the quality, not the quantity).

No, it was not Maradona who said that, it was not Pele or Zidane too. It was not even Romario or Hugo Sanchez. It was Hugo Rodallega from Colombia. "but the big difference is that he plays for Barcelona and I play for Quindio".
Hugo comment today sounds not just arrogant or unrealistic, but funny too.

Saudi Arabia officially was the first team to exit Asian Cup 2011 after two defeats from Syria 1-2 and Jordan 0-1. It is not a big issue to lose a game or two, but, the way Saudi lost and the whole set-up of the team and the journey this team has taken since 1994 World Cup till today, is the real issue.
