Didn’t El Clasico usually end with some red cards and fights? Need not to emphasize how much we dislike such scenes as they always ruined a great match. Alright, let’s get back to the topic.

So the football season is coming to an end. Championship teams played their last games during the weekend, now all eyes are on the play-offs, wondering who will be the third team joining Premier League next season. Dramas seems to continue in the Premier League, Wigan looks set to earn themselves another season in the Premier League, pretty amazing huh? As for the Hong Kong league, title run is over for SCAA and Sun Hei after they lost the FA Cup games on Sunday. To top all these news? How about Hodgson will be the next England manager?
