The most important competition after the World Cup and the Euro Cup-
UEFA. The
season started a while ago, but now that the important team are up and running everything is much more interesting.
All the English teams struggled in their first matches:
Manchester United won their match against Besiktas 1-0 with a header from Scholes. Rooney was isolated at the front as United unsuccessfully played their 5-4-1 formation, and they lacked their usual flair.
There is also speculations that United will offer Daveed Silva 30 million for a move to the Reds. I love Valencia and although I would hate to see the two Daveeds separated I would to see one of them at United.
Arsenal almost lost as the unknown team they were playing against took the lead 2-0. The gunners who have been feeling the loss of Arshavin who will be out for a while due to an injury were able to come back and win the game 3-2.
Torres was promoting his new book while his team struggled to win 1-0 against the Hungarians, Debreceni. I guess he was too busy thinking about his book during the game, rather than thinking about how to score goals.
Messi fought over an invisible ball with an Inter player. The boring game ended in a 0-0 draw. I mean there wasn't even a fight between the Ibra and Eto'o!
Of course I have to mention the Bulgarians, Levski Sofia, who lost 1-0 after a dreadful performance against Villareal.
The other Bulgarians, CSKA Sofia, showed some excellent levitation abilities during the match against Everton which ended 1-1.
Real Madrid was the only team that played at their level, winning their match against Zurich 5-2. This guy ^ scored twice.
He was jealous that Kaka looked prettier than him. Ahh... Kakanaldo
P.S. You know when they show slow motion replays of something that happened during the game? Well next time they are doing that watch the players' thighs, OMG they jiggle.
