Argentina vs Spain PREVIEW



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)

Between the 22nd and 28th of March: U.S.A vs. Argentina (U.S.A)

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 ...

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 ...
