Argentina vs Spain PREVIEW

30402andresdalesandro3213_456_336f_batista_v

Hello everyone!

So we have another friendly match to look forward to! Are you all excited?? I definitely am! I can`t wait! Riquelme has already promised that he will be watching from the stands! He said he is back with the national team! What do you all think? Would you like to give him a try? Batista has called up D`Allesandro. Do you think he`s capable? I think he has a strong personality and maybe a little too much for messi… He just won the Copa Libertadores with Internacional of Brazil. We have to remember that Messi is an introverted person. And what about Gabriel Milito? Is he capable? We all know that Messi gets along well with him so that`s good…

Here is Argentina`s International Friendly matches so far:

October 8: Japan vs. Argentina (Tokyo)
November 17: Brazil vs. Argentina (Qatar)
February 9: England vs. Argentina
Between the 22nd and 28th of March: U.S.A vs. Argentina (U.S.A)
June 1st – Italy vs. Argentina

Argentina will also play host to the Copa América from the 3rd to the 24th of July.

The following is the list of players that have been called up for the International FIFA Friendly match against Spain on Tuesday September 7 (River Plate stadium):

Arqueros: Sergio Romero (AZ Alkmaar – Holanda), Mariano Andújar (Catania – Italia) y Agustín Marchesín (Lanús – Argentina).

Mediocampistas: Javier Mascherano (Liverpool – Inglaterra), Fernando Gago (Real Madrid – España), Ever Banega (Valencia – España), Ángel Di María (Real Madrid – España), Esteban Cambiasso (Inter – Italia), Mario Bolatti (Fiorentina – Italia), Andrés D’Alessandro (Inter – Brasil).

In the dark, obviously. In our own shadow. Still looking in the past (1986) perhaps… and ignoring a future that should be bright…
We’re not even able to name a coach now and finally start to build and organize a group of fantastic players for 2014. When will we start to prepare? In ... [read more]

Well guys, it is a new beginning as from today. The World Cup is over and we can only look to the future. We shouldn´t look back at 1978 and 1986 and analyze the way we played back then because football has changed, and the world doesn´t play ... [read more]

Hola amigos…
For so many years, I’ve always thought that we were our own enemy.
Last day, Julio Grondona, FIFA’s vice president, said: “I won’t leave my position at FIFA until I die”. So you can guess he’s pretty eternal at AFA… I remind to those who didn’t know it that he’s in ... [read more]

Cristina Kirchner asks Maradona to stay. When will the circus end?

Julio Grondona, when will you leave?

A defensive system? When?

When will we understand?

Unbelievable but true: A 0-0 draw to Argentinos Juniors and a 2-1 Vélez Sársfield's loss to Boca over the weekend means River stand alone atop the Primera table with 10 points. (Estudiantes and Gimnasia LP will play the final round of the fixture tomorrow; an Estudiantes win would also give ...

Apertura 2010: River Plate 3 - 2 Independiente

River Plate continued their fantastic start to the season with a 3-2 win over rivals Independiente Sunday at the Monumental. Two first half-goals from Rogelio Funes Mori and a third from Paulo Ferrari were enough to hold los rojos to 3-1 late in the match. A Juan Pablo Carrizo own-goal ...

Apertura 2010: Huracán 0 - 1 River Plate

Just my luck. On a Sunday when River Plate post an impressive 1-0 victory over Huracán, TyC Sports, which shows most Primera games here in the States along with Fox Sports en Español, decides instead to show some basketball game between Argentina and Spain. Even the internet failed to provide my ...

Happy Anniversary Flaco

Don't know how this slipped by me. Saturday's match marked number 100 for Rolando Schiavi in a Newell's jersey. Before next weekend's game with Tigre he will be presented with a plaque commemorating the accomplishment. He'll also be face-to-face with one Ricardo Caruso, ex-Newell's boss and head man at Tigre, ...

That Was Slightly Less Painful

I suppose I should be happy with a point on the road at Lanús, but the game still left a bit of a bitter taste in my mouth. I know it is early yet, but one goal in two matches worries me. And that was from a set piece and ...

He Shoulda Stayed in Rosario

Somehow I wound up looking at the All Boys squad list tonight, looking for ex-Old Boys and guess which name jumped out at me? The Ogre, Cristian Fabbiani. The way the jerk jumped ship for River he deserves all the bad karma he's gotten. He actually joined All Boys after ...
