messi * Great performance of ‘injured’ Andres Iniesta, the great hero of the ‘Third’
* The United after 10 minutes of domination, was crushed by the great football azulgrana

MADRID .- The Barcelona won in Rome before the Manchester United (2-0) their third Champions League. After a hesitant start, with the English Cristiano Ronaldo turned on the goal of Victor Valdes had a relentless domination of the game to win and a ‘triplet’ is unique in Spanish football, with the league title, Copa del Rey and Champions . [Narration and Statistics]

The devastating effect of a desc. On a bad move one point jump in the seam of the pants, peek under the netting and admiration becomes embarrassing. The elegance of dress, the most expensive of the world, carrying with the United ostentation, was nude appearance by an imbalance of circumstantial coincidence.

What is not coincidental is the cathedral FOOTBALL capitals, from that basis, was able to build the Spanish team. Is the engine of all their successes, the philosopher’s stone and the creative vein of a triumphant years in all.

The ultrasonic pulse of a goal. After the departure more painful of the season, with Barcelona at the mercy of the British – four shots of Cristiano Ronaldo, another auction Park, two improvements Víctor Valdés-a burst in the opposite direction completely changed the correlation of forces. Patrice Evra had disappeared from his defensive grid for the flood of effervescence United. Andres Iniesta, in his first appearance in 10 minutes, more precisely in their first two weeks of injury, and led the intuition of Samuel Eto’o. That was the ball. The Cameroonian, who has one last month in their area of obtuse gunboat, took up powers far right, mocked marking Nemanja Vidic, anticipated the urgent help of Michael Carrick and touched the edge, down, so that Dutch goalkeeper during the MU did not find the ball.

And the best template for the world entered the game to the delight of the universe culé, including José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, that there was next to Silvio Berlusconi appeared to doze, with King Juan Carlos on the left.

Many Englishmen are not believed what they were looking after those 10 minutes prior to their players could Barcelona noquear the anticipation of everything. Had commented that trap that Xavi Hernandez could not be so precise in his passing and Iniesta have been injured. They were deceived. We were told that the danger was that Lionel Messi and was not exactly well, at least until well past the midpoint of the first half, when the review began. Barcelona operated by the infinite spaces that United can not even imagine.

Manchester pulled pride in his attempt to turn the match in his favor, but in the second half the pressure was even greater and Barcelona football field was in Catalan.

Although Van der Sar and the stick delayed hemorrhage, rejecting shots by Thierry Henry and Xavi, the English team could not avoid the latter hangs over the downtown area need to emphasize English and Messi head you want the Golden Ball 2009 with permission to Iniesta and Hernandez himself.

History will remember this forever Barcelona, even if their football greatness runs out after this first year of Guardiola. That is not likely, nor the philosophy of the coach, or the wonders that shines in Massi and makes playing in the Nou Camp.

The Burnley back to the Premiership after 33 years

LONDON .- The Burnley won promotion to the ‘Premier League’ imposed after the Sheffield United 1-0 in the final match of the ‘play-off for promotion.

Wade Elliott’s goal at 13 minutes of the match held at Wembley was enough for the Lancashire club to gain the victory and returned to class after 33 years after declining in 1976.

Burnley was the champion of the English League in 1921 and 1960, besides winning the Cup in England in 1914.

With his victory, joins Burnley Wolverhampton Wanderers and Birmingham, which had risen directly, without having to play the ‘play-off’ in the box that Lancashire had been imposed prior to Reading.

Meanwhile, Sheffield, which was eliminated in the previous round at Preston, who will fight for promotion again next year, which share class with West Bromwich Albion, Middlesbrough and Newcastle, descended from the ‘Premier League this season .

The passion of the novice to the cunning of Sir Alex

May 25, 2009 by bumeral  
Filed under Football

ROME .- Separated for nearly 30 years, Alex Ferguson, and Josep Guardiola, respectively technical Manchester United and Barcelona, will face on Wednesday in the final of the Champions League in Rome, their different concepts of football, personal and cultural.

Ferguson, 67, has accumulated 23 campaigns on the bench of Manchester, where true to the tradition of the industrial city has set up an assembly line to produce success and money, that are constantly feed.

Guardiola, 38, has not yet completed his first season as a coach and built with passion, enthusiasm and security Barcelona one of the best in history. Has achieved the double of League and Cup in Rome and will seek an unprecedented Treble.

“God, we have to play against them,” said Sir Alex when he saw Barcelona to endorse the recent Real Madrid 6-2. But also looked at how Chelsea did sweat the Barcelona-based ferrous and muscle markings in the semis. “All clubs have their style. Barcelona has its own and we ours,” said the Scots when he compares the flamboyant football, touch and ball possession compared to its rival, United, more physical, more rapid, more varied.

Guardiola is true to the ideals of the Dutch legend Johan Cruyff, the Barcelona to 4-0 by the United Golea Ferguson in 1994. The coach admitted that the British knew then that if ever wanted to win the Champions League, should have more control of the ball. Although far from the quality of Andres Iniesta and Xavi Hernandez, the Manchester-Chelsea-unlike the players have control as Paul Scholes, Michael Carrick or Anderson.

But he hardly put a face to face Barcelona in Rome: the strong behind the slaughter of some of its front (as Wayne Rooney or Carlos Tevez), the velocity of others (as Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo) and the elasticity of the midfield are the axes of the best oiled machine Ferguson.

The sullen-manager, driver and sometimes-arrogant accumulated 33 titles with United since he arrived in 1986. Success is the fruit of their ambition, their precision, their power in the locker room, his father figure who rewards and severe reprimands within the family of Old Trafford.

Opposite, Guardiola, the technician who runs the band to celebrate goals, passing much of the party embraced by the doublet to an employee in sight for millions. Worship and refined, obsessive and demanding strategic plan defined, passionate. Aesthetics above all else. Barcelona has found the perfect player to realize his dream, which is designed away from the factory, in a study of architecture and cartabón squad.

The technician Spanish, with two trophies, was coach when he played and now is when player coach. His power of seduction has changed to a team that aside from Daniel Alves and Gerard Pique is about the same as wearing two campaigns blank. “For his work, it knows how and has motivated us has been fundamental in achieving this success, becomes spokesman for the pampered ‘crack’ Lionel Messi. Nod Thiery Henry, Samuel Eto’o, Rafael Marquez … It is not power, but authority.

Unlike its rival chameleon, Guardiola does not hide which has only a letter winner in Rome. “We will do all year: take the ball and tighten to Van der Sar,” said the coach, who hopes a rival to the parapet and lethal control, as in the semifinals of last season. “I admire his career and his achievements is an honor to play against him,” said Guardiola humble and daring on the old sage.

Nadal criticizes: ‘Neither plan nor regular, nor electricity’

* Adds victory followed his 29 in Paris and even the record for Chris Evert
* His next opponent will be Russian Teimuraz Gabashvili

PARIS .- It seems that Rafael Nadal lost his opening match at Roland Garros. He was very serious, busy, self. Broke into three sleeves of Brazilian Marcos Daniel (7-5, 6-4, 6-3), but the tetracampeón Paris has ruled that neither party had no scheme, no regularity, no electricity. [Narration and statistics]

It is the manner in which their relative merits and Nadal to the new record just to be secured. No male tennis player in history had managed to score 29 consecutive wins at Roland Garros. Now surpasses Borg (28), although the news of the advancement nor does it change your face with sober words.

“It’s always difficult the first game. I weighed the legs a bit. But it is also true that I won in three sets and that mentally I was fine. I have to improve the game. I think I’ve given too much work to Marcos explained Nadal having passed the first round.

Has not been amused to manacorí who asked about the pink dress. Nor has he too appreciated the questions on a hypothetical intersection with Hewitt. The only time it gave verbal relaxation to discuss Santoro, bizarre news that meets 20-year career and is involved again in the French tournament. “This is an example to all. Charismatic, with class. And we must recognize that one has carrerón. Many of us like to play so many years,” said Nadal.

It was not a very exciting debut. The defense of the title, undefeated in Paris, needed time to recognize the field and released. His first set, for example, lasted one hour strength to persevere on the reverse of that when Marcos was the best weapon of the Tennis world number 97.

Brazilian public was in favor and no pressure, but the limits of his game and his physical became evident halfway through the second race. It was then decided the match when Nadal brilliantly and without motion.

The Spanish will face in the second round with Russian Teimuraz Gabashvili, 72 of the world, who defeated his compatriot Igor Kunitsyn by 6-7, 7-6, 6-3 and 6-1.

* The number one needed four hours to defeat Djokovic (3-6, 7-6, 7-6)
* He saved three match balls in the ‘tie break’ final
* To be confronted in the final to Federer, who eliminated Del Potro (6-3, 6-4)

MADRID .- Rafael Nadal has qualified for the finals of the Madrid Masters in 1000 after winning a long and spectacular game to Novak Djokovic. (3-6, 7-6, 7-6). It is the fourth victory of the Serbian Spanish so far this season, all on clay. The fans packed the track of the Magic Box Central enjoyed a brutal match, which lasted over four hours, and that will be remembered as one of the most difficult to win for the number one throughout his career. Nadal will face in the final to Roger Federer, who beat Juan Martin del Potro (6-3, 6-4). [Narration] [Album]

Is beyond doubt that the track of the Magic Box Central were the two best players on clay in the world. Nadal, undisputed king so far on this surface, Djokovic has found an honorable opponent. Without, as the Spanish and South American players, with a tradition of a school ground, ‘Nole’ is already a specialist. His effort to learn the peculiarities of a very uneven track has a lot to do with progression, but also the times he has played and lost to Rafa Nadal.

The three defeats at the number one in this season Djokovic served in a different way to bring this party. The only way to break the number one clay is used the same weapons as them. Writing is easy, it is difficult to put into practice what she learned the track after the finals of Monte Carlo and Rome, also played Davis Cup but on this occasion it was only the Serbian salute. The Balkan and seen what was the result, it is no exaggeration to think that torture should be a face Nadal.

You can not blame any party by Djokovic. Until the fifth game of the third set did not lose a game with your service. More than two sleeves continually putting out their best player of the world. Serbian soon realized that if he continued taking Nadal would have controlled. In addition, in the second game of the crash had already succeeded in breaking the Spanish service. The triumph came in the first part without giving any option to Nadal to contest the dominance of the Balkans.

The tiebreaker that decided the second race was the result of 12 games in which the services were imposed, but the feelings that gave Djokovic still better than those of Nadal. The shooting was still playing his best tennis, was unable to force a single choice of ‘break’ and had to cope with three against. Concentration, once again the engine that kept him connected to the party, made him overcome these bad times, reaching the ‘tie break’ and tie the game.

The manga was a third layer of the second in what has turned out and hegemony of the services covered, but the sentiment exceeded. Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic showed the best of the sport in an unforgettable hour and 34 minutes. Touched both physically needed the assistance of physician-throwing tournament of pride not to give in and force the opponent to be better to win each point. ‘Nole’ had not reached his hand back to the sudden death to break the service of his opponent in the fourth game, but in the fifth Nadal returned the insult. The ‘tie break’ would decide again. Were 20 extra points. Once again, Djokovic made their choices-go three match-balls, not Nadal, who needed only two to bring it to the final.

It’s easy after a game and sentencing the loser and predict that if you have not won for keeping everything, it will not ever. Djokovic may have missed his big chance and never will be so close to beat Nadal on clay, but noting the growth in this area, the Serbian at least deserves the benefit of the doubt. Rafa did not have a good day-no forced committed 50 errors and only once broke the service of his rival, but do not know surrender. Djokovic realizes that he can win on clay at any time, in the same way as the dome to Roger Federer on grass and fast track. Tennis rematch offer a ‘Nole.
Federer destroys Del Potro

With the 4-1 he made two double faults came to me very well. 5-4 could be closed, but stuck with good punches and suffered a 5-5 draw to save my lot and I did the best 6-5 game of the match, “summarized.

The manacorí said it is costing “finding the rhythm in Madrid as the capital has” complicated conditions. ” “I find it hard to adapt, is not an excuse. The ball is beyond me more than usual. It was a difficult match and I knew that anything could happen,” he said.

In other matters, considered a privilege to be the favorite in some tournaments. “I find it easier to play well here in Paris. I prefer to be a favorite because it is not, but here I am not the favorite, I am one of the four and see what happens because conditions are different from a tournament ground,” he said.
