Good morning my friends.   What a lovely Sunday morning!!! wohooo… I hope you are all happy too awaiting for the World Cup Final match Germany vs Argentina. Oh yeah!  You bet all headlines, main attention is for the match to find out who will be crowned as World Cup Champions!!!   Mamma mia… I will need an entire Coffee pot to be awake!!!!

Headlines practically for Argentina forward Lionel Messi to be the decisive player now or never again!  Yep.  I totally agree with the headlines that Messi can write history if he becomes the fundamental player for Argentina victory and can be compared to great one Diego Armando Maradona.   Yet, come on guys, it’s not an easy task because on the other side you have a strong Germany with 2 great leaders such as Muller and Lazio forward Miroslav Klose!!!!!   Wow, wow, wow…. who will win????   As for the World Cup 3rd place headlines.. oh well, we have to order Tylenol for Brazil team again humiliated.  Netherlands crushed Brazil with a flat 3-0!!!!!!  Brazil ended the tournament as the team conceding more goals a smacking 14 altogether, which includes 10 in the last 2 games.. OUCH!

Back to Serie A headlines, I love the one about AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi being strict with the players.  Awesome!  I love the fact that cell phones are not allowed in the dressing room neither practice session and not at the table… I guess eating time!!!!  Just about time!!!  Players should concentrate for training and not be concerned about who is calling or texting….   For Milan the pressure is high and demand for total concentration is a must!

Well, guys, enjoy the headlines and have a delicious snack to enjoy the game.!

It is Netherlands to open the score in the 3rd minute!!!  Things not going well for Brazil who are coming from a goleada against Germany.   Here is the situation, Referee Djamel Haimoudi  gives a penalty to Brazil in the 3rd minute granted by Brazil defender Thiago Silva after a foul on Netherlands forward Arjen Robben.  Taking the penalty spot is forward Robin van Persie who without a problem  converts a penalty withe a left footed shot to the top right corner.

The shout of victory by Netherlands forward Robin van Persie after converting the penalty to put his team ahead while sending the alarm for Brazil with this early goal.

 

Say no more…. it’s just tragedy for Brazil!  Netherlands increasing the score in the 16th minute.  It is Netherlands defender Daley Blind to defeat Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar with a right footed shot in the top right corner.

Here is the splashing moment when Netherlands defender Daley Blind beats Brazil defense leaving goalkeeper Julio Cesar full of frustration after seeing the ball inside the net.

Nothing seems to work for Brazil.  In the 50th minute Netherlands keep pressing and the combo Daley Blind  with Arjen Robben creating danger for Brazil, this time blocking Robben’s left footed shot.  Brazil suffering while resisting Netherlands constant pressing.

In the 57th minute, Brazil coach Scolari decided to bring Lazio midfielder Hernanes to replace midfielder Paulinho.

There you go.. towards the end of the match and instead of Brazil scoring at least the honor goal it is Netherlands to smack the final slap in the 90th minute! It is midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum to defeat Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner.  The assist by defender  Daryl Janmaat.

Good morning my friends.   I am so happy today awaiting for the World Cup 3rd place game between Brazil vs Netherlands.  How are you?  Are you planning to watch the game. I am!  Come on, I totally agree with the headlines that although Brazil is playing for the 3rd place, the fans  still don’t forgive them.  And here, my friends, I include myself because I expected way more from Brazil who disappointed big time never showing a consistent and convincing game losing the semifinal against Germany with a mega goleada 7-1.

Cheer up guys!   Italy team might not be in the World Cup final, but hello, hello, hello,…. Italian born referee Nicola Rizzoli has been assigned to direct the final match Argentina – Germany!!! wohoooo… plus, remember there are 7 Italian Serie A players with Argentina and 2 with Germany… so “an Italian” presence is at the final.

Ok, guys, the headline upsetting me big time is that of AC Milan forward Mario Balotelli !!!!  What is this guy thinking????? Come on, it’s about time that Balotelli start to grow up and show common sense… What is this photo thing pointing with a gun  and the message to the haters???? Precisely, these are the types of situation causing discomfort among fans and questioning more for his antics than his “actual football.”

  • 54% of our championship don’t speak Italian.
  • There are restrictions, oftentimes, loopholes are used to exploit them.
  • Closing to non-EU members wouldn’t help; an example is Germany.

Good morning my friends.  How are you?  Coffee for everyone today.  It seems it’s a day of hope for AC Milan fans.  La Gazzetta dello Sport main  headline showing the big photo of the new coach Filippo Inzaghi starting a new era for a poor Milan looking to shine again as Champions.    Let’s not forget the poor performance from Milan last season resulting in being out of Champions League and Europa League this season.  Will Inzaghi bring back the glorious days? That’s the question.

A headline hitting me big time is about Napoli forward Gonzalo Higuain…. according to the clause he is worth 100 millions!!   Moreover, guys, BAM !  Fiorentina president Della Valle saying that coach Cesare Prandelli has in his DNA the escape factor!
