It's been less than five months since former U.S. coach Bob Bradley took over Egypt's national team in the wake of the country's upheaval and revolution. A revolution that now appears directly related to the stadium massacre at Port Said on Wednesday, believed to be premeditated revenge from pro-Mubarak thugs.

Since its founding in 1907, Al Ahly S.C. has been known as ‘the people's club,' representing resistance against the many forms of colonialism that have long plagued the African continent. Initially the first sporting club to allow Egyptians to join, Al Ahly remains the most popular of Egyptian teams, wearing to this day the red kits that honour the pre-colonial Egyptian flag.

At least 74 soccer fans died as deadly riots broke out in Port Said after a soccer match between Al Masry and visiting Al Ahly. Fans from Al Masry invaded the pitch after their team beat Al Ahly, 3-1 and clashed with their rivals. Most of the deaths were attributed to the ensuing stampede as supporters desperately tried to make for the exits.

This week was full of funny and strange incidents, that I think worth assigning a full post for them.
I will start by a very stupid unintentional behavior by this player:
And thanks to cameras to uncover many of players deceiving behaviors of like Aurélien Chedjou from Lille vs.

No doubt, the goal of the week was Real Madrid great counter attack vs. Ajax scored by Cristiano Ronaldo, I read some opinions that says it was best ever counter attack in history. Well, I don't like super-relatives, but I cannot recall a better counter attack from my memory,
Next is something very stunning from Argentina, reminds us of Hugo Sanchez days
Then, to their neighbor rivals, Brasil, another stunning bicycle kick
Today, I was watching a game in Egyptian cup and I was impressed by the quality of football they got, and mostly from local players.

Regardless of where played, a proper derby stokes supporters' passions, incites vitriol to be spewed irrationally, and at times can pluck raw nerves to a bleeding point. If today's player, often unattached or deeply affiliated with a club enough to identify with a rivalry match, actually buys in to this emotion and puts it into his play on the pitch, the results can run the gamut from being something of legend to looking brutish and petty.
