For many years, the football world had been filled with the red colour, Man Utd, AC Milan, Spain national team, and so on. This season, however, the colour has finally changed, to the Blues. Man City won the Premier League; Chelsea won the Champions League for the first time during the weekend and in Hong Kong, Kitchee lifted the league champion trophy again.

European Leagues Wrap-up: Manchester OUT!

Guess no one expected both Manchester teams to leave Europa so soon? Or you have expected that because you think both teams want to concentrate on Premier League? How about Chelsea? Did you expect them to be the only English team standing and made such a comeback after sacking AVB? Well, this is the fun in football world, sometimes it is impossible to make predictions!

Should I say, ‘Farewell, AVB.’?

Everyone knows Napoli or AC Milan are not an easy team to play against. So when both Arsenal and Chelsea arrived in Italy, I am pretty sure most of their fans were hoping for a  draw. ‘Just, don’t lose this game.’ was probably what they were thinking. But guess what? Both teams lost their games in the most unacceptable way.

Matches to Catch: The European Leagues are Back

After some rest, the UEFA Champions League and the Europa League will be back to business this week. With some big teams playing in Europa this season, we are pretty sure both Leagues will be exciting to watch. Let’s see which matches are up this week, that you shouldn’t miss:

Champions League/Europa: What to Watch?

Somehow when you look at the result of both draws, the Europa matches seem to be more exciting. One of the main reasons, of course is because many top teams are going to compete in the lower league this season. So, which teams will us watch?

Here comes the last game in group stage of UEFA Champions League and let’s see which teams are already cleared and through to the next stage:

Bayern Munich, Internazionale, Real Madrid, Arsenal, Apoel, Barcelona and AC Milan.
The rest? They will have to fight hard for their places, and no, winning is not quite enough.

Jonas Scores 2nd Fastest Goal in Champions League History

If you missed the goal last night, like us, you can watch it from the video above! This goal scored by Valencia’s player Jonas, got into the back of the net around 11s but still, cannot beat Roy Makaay’s goal for Bayern Munich against Real Madrid in 2007, which scored at 10s, just slightly quicker than Jonas.

To us, THIS is more important than Arsenal scores at the very last minute yesterday; more important than Torres scored two goals last night and ended his Champions League goal drought; more important than Barcelona’s disappointing 2-0 result or any other scorelines in the Champions League.

We still remember the black and white wristband that were released a few years ago, and recent incident between Luis Suarez and Patrice Evra apparently raised the racism issue again. We are not going to comment about the incident, whether we think who is right or who is wrong. Although racism does decline in football, it still exist, and we strongly hope that our players can be respected in every way, no matter what is their skin colour. As long as they provide us good football, we are happy! So let’s do what Captain Persie says, ‘Unite Against Racism’.

'Two! I will score two today!'

Mata Went Home to Face Valencia

During lazy typhoon day, as we are stuck at home, we decided to do a little blog update. After some local footballs, we shall catch up on some Euro football news.

Last two days were the Champions League match days and the giants didn’t tell the same story. Manchester City lost 2-0 to Bayern Munich, but Tevez had apparently grabbed more spotlight then the match result. Manchester United only managed to get one point from the game against FC Basel, despite leading two nil in the first half, the game ended in a 3-3 scoreline. Chelsea too, only managed to get one point, facing their new signing, Mata's former club, Valencia, final score 1-1. On the other hand, Arsenal looks like they are back on their feet, another victory after the weekend game against Bolton, the game ended with 2-1 scoreline, against Greek giant Olympiakos. Barcelona and Real Madrid, too, had another victory, Real Madrid won 3-0 against Ajax and Barcelona trashed BATE Borisov 5-0, top scorer battle between Ronaldo and Messi still continue, both scored in the game.

Sadly, we did not manage to finish watching any of these games, but the results look interesting. What do you think about these games?

Benfica player, Oscar Cardozo looks like he is going to give the ball a bite, probably too much pressure on having to play Man Utd tomorrow.

We will continue on Champions League Group A,B,C,D today.  Are you ready?

The Champions League Begins Tomorrow..

Wondering what Silva and Pato joked about? Hopefully not about Silva’s shorts being too tight? Image via Daylife/GettyImages

Zalatan looks deep in thoughts, probably thinking about how to score against his former club, Barcelona? Yes, tomorrow is the group stage of Champions League and AC Milan will play at the Camp Nou.

Another Trophies for Barcelona and more..

Oh Cesc, of course we can feel your happiness! Two goals and three trophies in three games. Who can ask for more? La Liga is only starting tonight and Barcelona already won two important trophies, Spanish Super Cup and UEFA Super Cup. No offense but Joan Gamper trophy just not as important as these two. The team played against Porto last night for UEFA Super Cup and won by two goals, one by Messiah and Fabregas sealed the game. Not sure how Wenger thinks about this, but probably he thinks his team can lift some trophies even with Fabragas and Nasri gone as he didn’t do anything in the transfer market yet.
