Argentina

On the road to Africa!

Tevez_1564922cmessi-higuain

So what now? Are we in the oven (the way the say here in Argentina) or will we be okay? You guys are right, I didn’t think much of that game against Costa Rica. Maradona just uses them to test out more under 21 local youngsters. What about Clemente Rodriguez? You guys think he fits the bill? Is he better than Otamendi? Maradona said yesterday that he has 60% of his squad decided. According to the daily Clarin, aside from Messi, Veron and Mascherano, 10 other players can already pack their suitcases.

They are: the goalkeepers Sergio Romero and Mariano Andujar, the defenders Gabriel Heinze, Martin Demichelis and Nicolas Otamendi, the wide midfielders Jonas Gutierrez and Angel Di Maria, and the forwards Gonzalo Higuain, Sergio Aguero and Carlos Tevez.

For now we have 4 more games left to go. We’ll see if anything else is added later. They host Jamaica on February 10 before travelling to Berlin to face Germany on March 3, with fixtures against Canada and Israel possibly to follow in May.

Have fun and as usual keep it clean!

Clausura 2010: River Plate 0 - 1 Banfield

Apparently Boca was worse than we thought. Expectations of seeing a new and improved River came crashing back to earth Sunday afternoon after a 1-0 loss to Banfield to kickoff the 2010 Clausura. Signs of the River that outplayed Boca last week were absent in a boring, lifeless performance by los ...

The Naivety of the Football Fan

Argentinos Juniors 2-2 Boca Juniors Hello Boca Offsiders. After taking in Boca’s frustrating opening encounter against Argentinos Juniors at what was a, according to Abel Alves anyway, suspiciously ‘small’ Estadio Diego Armando Maradona, I must admit that I feel more than a little embarrassed. ...
