2-1 Juve-Inter

THAT's how it's done. Marchisio's goal was pure skill, love how he's going to fall but still manages to dribble then lift it over the keeper.

Also, Balotelli dove more than a bar of soap <.<

 

[Bugzee]

I can't believe Inter lost that game! If only Wesley Sneijder was playing hahaha

 

[Pirulito]

Well, Brasileirao ended today and Flamengo is the champion. Probably Saintz0r is very drunk at the moment. An exciting championship, I need to say. In its latest 22 minutes, 3 teams had 65 points. But Flamengo scored and buried the dreams of Sao Paolo and Internacional.

Such dispute amazed me.

Just saw the Marchisio goal; simply amazing, the quick feet and the under pressure finish with the keeper so close to him.

 

[Bugzee]

The Marchisio goal was very nice! he kept his balance and finished the job!

Did anyone see Pancrate's debut goal for Newcastle against Wolves?? That was one great debut goal imo!

 

[goldb]

eek OMG!!! What a goal!! I didn't see that at all. Was that this week?

 

[Bugzee]

Yeah it was this week! It was a great goal! Newcastle really needed a player like Pancrates lol! Hopefully, he'll become a consistent goal scorer. If he does improve and produce goals like that every week, I don't think his going to stay a Magpie for long..

 

[goldb]

If he stays consistent this season, you can bet a Premier League team will come in for him. My local team Crystal Palace lost at home again,damn it!! I want them to get promoted so badly; 2005( I think it was) when they were in the top league it was amazing living there. So many celebs I got to see when they played the big teams.

 

[Bugzee]

WOW!!! Chelsea 3 - Everton 3! Damn! I wasn't expecting that to happen! Man City are pathetic, all those expensive players and they draw against Bolton!

A good win for wolves this week!

Off to watch Man Utd Vs Aston Villa soon!

Great win for Villa! I was not expected a result like that.

I'm still not sure how I survived the celebrations
What can I say? The 17 years wait to see my Flamengo winning a brazilian title again was worth. That's a day ( and a night xD ) to never forget.


On the other hand, Liverpool fans might be having nightmares with Arshavin ahahaha

 

[goldb]

I'm so happy Arsenall won, after that first half perfomance we were lucky to only be 1-0 down at half time. But apparently something Wenger said to the players spurred them on to come back and win. Seems like all the weekend fixtures worked to our favour.

 

[Mendes]

Pepe got injured against Valencia. His World Cup presence is very doubtful... its a terrible loss, although we have means to replace him :/

 

[goldb]

Trust Arsenal to drop points as soon as they get back into the title race!!! F*** Sake!!! The league table is looking rather close-ish for my liking. Barring some miracle perfomances, it'll be Man Utd chasign Chelsea till the end. The rest will play for the other two spots imo.

 

[Bugzee]

Champions league draw coming up very soon!!!!!

I predict Man Utd to get either Bayern Munich or Stuttgart.
I predict Inter to get either Real Madrid or Fiorentina.

They're just random gut feelings so we'll see! Should be interesting match ups!

Liverpool are in the EUROPA League, they should win it. If they don't I think it'll be a shame.

 

[ibra87]

Inter vs Chelsea....

Been good so far, good riddance, Inter <.<

 

[Bugzee]

Damn it, my prediction was off LOL. oh well, good games too look forward too!

eeerrr what are you going on about good riddance?!

Inter will go through against chelsea! Jose will kill off chelsea with his strategies!!!
Man Utd are going to struggle against AC, especially in the condition of the team at present.

Lyon's going to get thrashed around by Madrid.

 

[Mendes]

I so wanted Sevilla... well too bad. We meet again, Arsenal! I'm scared :O
