The inside back of the neck features a blue triangular pennant design with 13 white stars, a numeric reference to the original U.S. colonies and a visual reference to the American flag.

FC Barcelona v Almeria: Getting the job done (4–0)

To the casual observer Wednesday night’s La Liga match between FC Barcelona and Almería at Camp Nou was what one might expect as the Catalans thoroughly dominated their opponents in virtually every statistical category on their way winning by a score of 4–0. But to anyone who has been following Barça closely this season, what transpired out on the pitch is likely to be taken as a rock-solid confirmation of how this team got here. Here just happens to be first-place in La Liga, four points clear of Real Madrid with 8 games to play — with a UEFA Champions League quarter-final tie versus Paris Saint-Germain and a Spanish Cup final versus Athletic Club Bilbao waiting in the wings.

Scoring production

So just how did Barça get to this point? Although there is a combination of factors, two stand out. First and foremost, the front line has been a goal machine. Luis Suárez, who had a brace, and Leo Messi both scored against Almería. Suárez got his second of the night just before the final whistle, converting an assist from line-mate Pedro Rodríguez. While it was a great way to end the game, Suárez’s first score of the evening — Barça’s second — was truly a thing of beauty. At the 55-minute mark, the Uruguayan took a pass from Dani Alves out near midfield and carried in on the right wing. Suárez cut back to his left and drifted toward the middle where he unleashed a left-footed laser beam from just inside the penalty area that Almería keeperJulián — despite getting a piece of it — had zero chance to stop.

Twenty minutes later the 73,837 people on hand at Camp Nou got to see the other big reason why theblaugranes have been so good this year. With Barça lining up for one of their plethora of corner kicks on the evening — they had 14 in all — defender Marc Bartra darted through a crowd in front of the goal and got his head on the curling kick, redirecting into the net for a 3–0 lead. It was the team’s 14th goal on a set play this season, breaking the previous record of 13 set in 2008/09. Perhaps what’s most incredible is that nine have been scored by defenders — until now central defenders Gerard Piqué, with six, and Jérémy Mathieu, with two, have done all the damage from the back line, the most recent having come barely 72 hours prior at Balaídos.

Possession kings

But Suárez and Bartra were not the only ones who used the evening to further Barça’s trend of blistering production this season. In the first half it was Messi who got things going. And the Argentinian couldn’t have found a more fitting time to open the scoring when he notched his 33rd league goal of the season on the stroke of 33 minutes.

Even though the game was scoreless through the half hour, there was never really any doubt about which team would emerge victorious as FC Barcelona relentlessly suffocated Almería in their own end. At one point Barça’s possession peaked out at just shy of 75%. Over the full 90 minutes they were able to maintain that stranglehold to the tune of 72%. The few times that the visitors got their feet on the ball, outlets were cut off and balls were stripped in what seemed like milliseconds. Several close Barça shots early on failed to find the net but, with time, Messi reminded everyone why Barça are where they are.

Famous Soccer Player-- Ricardo Quaresma

Sebastian Henke

One of the most skillful players in today's game, Ricardo Quaresma, is well known for his variety of  tricks and skills in a football match. He is a forward who is able to play on either side of the wing.

He is blessed with blistering pace, famous for utilizing skills such as the "Rabona" and the "Trivela" in matches. His ability to add variety to his attacks causes defenders regular problems when playing against him.

Early Life/ Sporting Lisbon

Quaresma was born on the 26^th of September 1983. At an early age, he already possessed innate abilities. He was a trained at Sporting Lisbon's famous youth academy. He first broke into the B team in the 2000/01 season, making 15 appearances.

The following season he was promoted into the 1^st team, played 28 matches and scored 3 goals. In the season of 2001-02 Ricardo Quaresma became a key player in the Sporting Lisbon squad, and they managed to obtain the league and cup double.

Unfortunately in the 2002/03 season, the form of Sporting Lisbon couldn't be maintained, and they only managed a mediocre season finishing third in the league.

With this poor performance, speculation began to rise about Ricardo Quaresma's future at the club.

Barcelona

In the 2003/04 season, Quaresma was then sold to FC Barcelona for a fee of €6.4 million. In his debut season, he made a total of 21 appearances, started 10 of them, and only scored 1 goal. He also injured his right foot and therefore missed the 2004 UEFA under-21 Championship.

Ricardo Quaresma ended up falling out with Frank Rijkaard, and he refused to play as long as Rijkaard was in charge. This raised the interest of other clubs who were willing to acquire Quaresma's talent.

FC Porto

Quaresma ended up signing for Porto in the summer of 2004 in an exchange for Deco. Quaresma started his campaign on a high note, scoring on his first game for the club in a UEFA Super Cup defeat against Valencia, then scoring the only goal in a victory against Benfica in the 2004 Portuguese Super Cup. He finished the season with 32 league appearances and 5 goals. In total, Quaresma ended up making 114 appearances with a total of 24 goals.

Ricardo Quaresma had a fantastic year, winning 3 Primeira Liga titles, the Intercontinental Cup, the Portuguese Cup, and one Primeira Liga Player of the Year in 2005/06 season.

Internazionale

On August 31^st, 2008, Ricardo Quaresma made a move to Inter Milan, under the new Coach Jose Mourinho, for a total fee of €18.5 million. He made his debut on the 13^th of September in 2008, in a Seria game against Catania, which resulted in a 2-1 victory.

Five days later, he made his Champions League debut against Panathiakos. He would endure a tough time at Inter, struggling to unleash his full ability. Because his confidence was very low, Inter Milan fans didn’t get to see the Ricardo Quaresma from FC Porto.

In the second half of the 2008/09 season he was loaned out to Chelsea FC. After returning to Inter Milan in the season 2009/10, Quaresma won the triple: the Scudetto, Coppa Italia and the UEFA Champions League.

But his time at Inter Milan proved to be the worst time in his Football Career, only managing 24 appearances and 0 goals in 2 seasons with the club.

Beskitas

After 2 tough seasons with Internazionale, Ricardo Quaresma switched to Turkish side Beskitas for €7.3 million, wearing the number 7 jersey.

In May 2011, he won the Turkish cup and was nominated man of the match. After spending 2 seasons with Beskitas, Quaresma managed to grab himself 8 goals in 46 appearances.

In 2013, he made another switch to the Arab site Al-Ahli Dubai and signed a contract keeping him at the club until 2014.

International Career

He won UEFA under-17 Championship in Portugal in 2000; this was his ticket to the senior team. He made his full international debut for the Portuguese national team in June 2003 in a friendly win against Bolivia.

Poor form with Barcelona and an injury in 2004, made him miss out on the Euro under-21 championship. This also resulted on him missing out on the 2004 Olympics.

But he rejuvenated his career during his time at FC Porto and earned himself a place in the 2006 qualification campaign for the World Cup.

On the 24th of March 2007 Quaresma scored his first goal for Portugal in Euro 2008 qualifier against Belgium. This time he made it into the 23 man squad for the Euro 2008 in Austria/Switzerland scoring one goal in the tournament against Czech Republic.

In total Quaresma has made 35 appearances and scored 3 times for Portugal.

Man Utd plot £11m bid to beat Liverpool and Spurs to Mats Hummels alternative Simon Kjaer

MANCHESTER UNITED are lining up a £11million move to beat Liverpool and Tottenham to Lille defender SImon Kjaer, according to reports.

discount MU soccer jerseys

Kjaer has also been linked with Juventus, Monaco and Zenit St. Petersburg in recent times due to his impressive form in Ligue 1.

But reports in Denmark suggest Louis van Gaal is ready to bring Kjaer to Old Trafford in a bid to strengthen his rearguard.

The move would reportedly make Kjaer the most expensive Danish player of all time - eclipsing Christian Eriksen's move from Ajax to Spurs in 2013.

But Kjaer would still be significantly cheaper than other United targets, such asBorussia Dortmund's Mats Hummels.

Kjaer has admitted in the past being a Liverpool fan but is willing to contemplate a move to any big side ready to offer him regular playing time.

He said: "I'll only leave if a top club wants me, this season or next.

"Otherwise there is no reason to leave a club of Lille's means.

"If I do leave, stability will be important. The clubs who want me will need to show that they intend to rely on me in the long term.

"I have a status in Lille. The club believes in me and my family feels good here.

"I realised that I needed a coach who has confidence in me and listens to what I say. It is important to have a coach who understands you.

"That was not the case at Wolfsburg and that's why I didn't stay there."

Anguilla out on the Team

Anguilla (pronounced Ang-WHEEL-Ah) is one of the first on the list of FIFA’s 209 members according to alphabetical order. But in the world ranking, a list driven by the numeracy of results and intractable goals-for and against columns, the Caribbean island teeters in the shadows of ignominy, second-bottom globally ahead of only the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan.

“It means nothing to me,” their coach Richard Orlowski told FIFA.com about the country’s lowly rank of 208th. “We’ve had some bad luck in the past; there’s no denying. But now we play in the present. So whoever says that Anguilla doesn’t have a chance, I say to them: 'this is football and anything can happen'.”

The tiny island, at the northern edge of the Leeward Islands, is an earthly paradise. It sways to ancient and mythical maritime rhythms and exudes a seductive calm. But on the football pitch, Anguilla suffers. They have only a rag-tag amateur league to draw their national team and they famously lost 16-0 over two legs to El Salvador in qualifying for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™. Anguilla has, in fact, played only four qualifiers in their history, and they’ve lost them all by a combined score of 33-2.

Anguilla draws many well-heeled tourists to bask on its beaches and bobble in the crystal water of its bays. But Orlowski is a man on a mission. He’s accustomed to travel, but they are the hard kinds of miles. He is no tourist. He began life as Ryszard Orlowski and fled to Austria from his native Poland in 1984 to escape political repression, before being granted refugee status in the United States and establishing a home in New York City. He now lives in Pennsylvania and had a successful stint as assistant coach of Nepal a few years ago, helping the Himalayan side earn a famous win against India and climb a small stretch of the lower reaches of the world rankings.

Orlowski was a striker in his native Poland, playing for a succession of unheralded clubs like ZKS Gofabet and ZKS Piotrcovia-Piotrkow Tryb. And much like he did in Kathmandu, he has already got the locals in Anguilla on his side with a famous win, one a long time in the making. Since taking the reins in February, he presided over a pair of victories against British Virgin Islands and another against St Martin. These were the first wins for Anguilla in the space of 14 years and casual soccer fans on the island have taken notice.

“I want to make this a winning team by challenging the players to believe in themselves,” he said, his English still broken and revealing echoes of his native Poland.

Famous Soccer Player-- Zinedine Zidane

ebastian Henke

There is no doubt that Zinedine Zidane belongs to the best soccer players in the history of that sport. He has technical skills that maybe 2 or players can mess with. He was not only a great player, but also a great person outside the soccer field. Since 2013, Zidane has been working as assistant coach at his former club Real Madrid.

Early Years

Zinedine Zidane was born on June 23, 1973, in Marseille, France. He is the son of Algerian immigrants. He grew up with his three brothers and one sister Lila in La Castellane. His first club was called U.S. Saint–Henri. Later, he played for Sports Olympiques Septèmes-les-Vallon.

Zidane was scouted by AS Cannes in 14 years old . He lived in a room of the regional boarding school for vocational students, where he met his present wife, Veronique. At 16 years old, Zidane was substituted for the first time in a game for the senior team of AS Cannes.

After Cannes had to move to the second league, Zidane moved to Bordeaux in 1992, where he got the nickname "Zizou" by his coach Rolland Courbis. His biggest success with the club was reaching the final of the UEFA Cup in 1996.

Juventus

During the following winter break, Zidane moved to the top Italian club Juventus, where became a world-class soccer player. With Turin, Zidane won the Italian Championship twice, and was twice a Champions League finalist, however, he lost both times.

Real Madrid

In 2001, Zidane moved for the record fee of €73.5 million to Real Madrid. Until the transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo in the year 2009, Zidane was the most expensive soccer player in the world.

At Real Madrid, the Frenchman won the Champions League for the first time, scoring a spectacular goal in the final in Glasgow in 2002 against Bayer Leverkusen. Real Madrid won the game 2-1.

In 2003, Zinedine Zidane won the Spanish league with Real Madrid. In the same year he was elected for the third time World Player of the Year.

Although his original contract ran until 2007, Zidane played his last game for Real Madrid on May 7, 2006 against FC Sevilla. Then, he finished his career in club soccer. The last game of his career was probably the most dramatic in this career, though.

It was the final of the FIFA World Cup 2006, when Zidane's Frenchmen took on Italy. First, Zidane scored a penalty goal. Later in the game, Italian player Marco Materazzi said something insulting to Zinedine Zidane about his sister and wife, and Zidane headbutted his chest. He got a red card and France missed the title, losing in penalty kicks.

This is the new Paris Saint-Germain 2014-15 Third soccer jersey by Nike which is available here.

Paris Saint-Germain will play in an all-red, two-tone third kit during the 2014-15 season. Each of the team’s jerseys honors the club’s core values: a blue home kit for grandeur, a white away kit for respect, and to complete the set, a red third kit to reflect their passion and modern spirit.

The new third jersey is entirely red, with two tones of the color to make a maximum impact on the pitch. The jersey, shorts and socks feature a lighter tone of red on the front, while a darker red covers the entire back.  

The two tones are divided by blue stripes — honoring another one of Paris Saint-Germain’s home colors — which stretch along both sides of the kit from the collar, along both shoulders, down the shirt and shorts, and right down to the socks.

When the players are in motion, the stripes accentuate the contours of the players’ bodies to provide a true sense of speed.

The shirt also boasts a classic design with a sophisticated polo neck collar and a three-button placket in the darker tone of red.

A white pennant tab with a blue border tucked inside the back of the neck displays the message, “Ici c’est Paris” (Here it’s Paris).

On the back of the jersey, the names and numbers are in a new italicized font in blue with a drop shadow red border to emphasize speed and dynamism.

Famous Soccer Player-- René Adler

René Adler is one of the best goalkeepers in German soccer. His biography tells the story of a player who was expected to be the number one goalkeeper in Germany over several years, before an injury took him out and cost him this spot.

Childhood

 

Photo used with permission

 

René Adler was born on January 15th, 1985 in Leipzig, Germany. He is the son of Kerstin and Jens Adler.

He started his career playing for VFB Leipzig after Leipzig's youth coach saw him playing in school practice in 1991. Due to good performances, Adler moved to German Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen in 2000 to play for Leverkusen's youth and second team first.

Bayer Leverkusen

Adler lived together with his goalkeeping coach Rüdiger Vollborn, who is a really good friend of his today. He became part of the Bundesliga squad at the beginning of the season 2003/2004, but continued playing for Leverkusen's second team for the next three years.

He made his Bundesliga debut on February 25th, 2007 against Schalke, because number one goalkeeper Jörg Butt served a suspension. His performance was amazing and he was able to keep his spot in goal.

This situation changed in 2010/2011 when Adler got injured and Leverkusen signed youngster Bernd Leno to replace him.

Adler decided to leave Leverkusen in 2012 since he lost his spot in the goal. He moved to Hamburg in a free transfer because his contract expired.

Hamburger SV

René Adler signed a five-year contract. At first, Hamburg's fans were not sure about this transfer. Adler's salary was really high, and the previous year's goalkeeper, Drobny, had performed very well.

The fans' opinions changed after Adler had played his first games for Hamburg. He seemed to be even better than he was before his injury.

Germany

Adler played for several German youth teams. He made his senior debut on October 11th, 2008 in a game against Russia. Experts expected him to be Germany's new number one goalkeeper since he seemed to be the greatest goalkeeper talent in Germany.

He was named Germany's number one in March 2010 and would have played in the World Cup, but a rib injury prevented his participation. He lost his spot to Manuel Neuer, who played a fantastic tournament.

Neuer was the new number one from then on.

Due to his good performances with Hamburg, Adler made his comeback for Germany in February 2013 against France. He is the number two now and will probably go to the World Cup in 2014.

Famous Soccer Player-- Jordi Alba

Professional Debut at Gimnastic de Tarragona

After he officially became a member of the first team of Valencia at the beginning of the 2008/2009 season, he left the club on loan to join Gimnàstic de Tarragona end of July 2008.

He made his professional debut on 30 August 2008 in the 2:3 away defeat against CD Tenerife. Over the whole season, Alba played in 35 league games and started 22 of them. He scored 3 goals for Tarragona. At the end of the season the team was in tenth place in the table.

Breakthrough at Valencia

As soon as he returned at his home club Valencia, he made his competitive debut for Valencia on September 13, 2009, when he replaced David Silva in a 4:2 win over Real Valladolid. Only four days later, Jordi Alba made his debut in the UEFA Europa League 2009/10, when he was substituted in the group stage game against Lille OSC. Alba appeared in nine Europa League games during that season.

The first league games were less successful for him since he was used as left wing most of the time and the star of the team David Silva was playing in this position. Alba had his final breakthrough in March 2010.

He played the full 90 min in the 0:3 defeat against FC Barcelona in the league and scored 1 goal himself and assisted another goal against RCD Mallorca only 2 weeks later. Over the entire season, Jordi Alba played in 15 league games.

Due to major injury problems in the Valencia defense, Alba was used as left defender for the last games of the season, which helped him to be more involved in the game. In the season 2011/12 he had his final breakthrough as a left-back and was a regular starter for Valencia.

Returning to FC Barcelona

During the summer 2012, FC Barcelona signed Alba to replace Eric Abidal. Jordi Alba signed a five-year contract until 30 June 2017 and has appeared in 44 league games since then.

World-Class Superstar-- David Beckham

Childhood

David Beckham was born in Leytonstone, London, England on May 2, 1975. His parents are Ted (who was a kitchen fitter) and Sandra (who was a hairdresser) Beckham both of whom were rigid Manchester United fans.

As a child he was always very interested in soccer and would spend hours at a time outside playing soccer with his father in Rigeway Park in Chingford.

He schooled at Chase Lane Primary School and Chingford Foundation School. When the teachers would ask him what he wanted to do when he grew up, he would tell them that he wanted to "be a footballer". He may have received a negative feedback, but he accomplished his goal nicely.

Though his skill as a soccer player flourished in his youth, all the time he spent playing the sport caused his grades in school to keep a continual low until he finally dropped out at the age of 16.

Directly after dropping out, he went to play for Manchester United's junior team.

Manchester United

Upon entering Manchester United, David Beckham was given the number 7 shirt.

Beckham proceeded to assist Manchester in winning the FA Youth Cup, scoring in the second leg of the final, just after turning 17.

From there he went on to play his first fully professional game at the age of 18. He also received a runners-up medal in the FA Cup, Manchester coming just behind Leeds United in the final.

After some time, his Premier League debut came at last in a home game against Leeds United in the April of 1995 (though this may somewhat be contributed to the injuries of some teammates), and he was established on the Manchester United first team in the 95-96 season.

Also, in the 95-96 season, Manchester United had three major athletes (Paul Ince, Mark Hughes, and Andrei Kanchelskis) leave the club on transfers. However, Manchester manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, decided that instead of buying great players from other clubs, he would just bring in youth players and let them have a chance to be great.

This decision brought much criticism, and when Manchester kicked off with a 3-1 defeat in Aston Villa, the criticism increased. However, Manchester went on to win the next five games and people began to hold back on the negativity.

David Beckham's Usual position was right midfield, and this was the position in which he gained fame for his incredible passes and long shots.

During the 1998 World Cup, he played in every one of England's qualifying games and scored in many important matches. He was thrown out of the tournament, however, for violent conduct in a match against Argentina.

Eventually, England forgave his misbehavior, and decided to allow Beckham to play as team captain of the national team (a position which he kept for the 2002 and 2006 world cups).

During that time, Beckham married Spice Girl, Victoria Adams (Posh Spice). Though he had already been a large celebrity in England, his marriage to a celebrity such as Victoria brought the attention of the press. Soon the two were major influences on society.

On one occasion during he 1999 season, not long after his first son, Brooklyn, was born, Beckham requested a day off training to tend to his son who was now sick. He received permission, but his wife was seen at a London Fashion Week event that same day. When manager Alex Ferguson heard of this, he fined Beckham £50,000, which was about $80,000 at the time (this was the maximum amount that he could charge for this incident). This caused a tension between the two men.

In 2003 Ferguson kicked a ball at Beckham while in the changing room, causing a cut that required stitches.

Real Madrid

Manchester United had already been keen to sell David Beckham, when he signed a four year on July 1, 2003 contract with Real Madrid, having a transfer fee of about £25 million (though Manchester had at first wished to sell him to FC Barcelona).

When he arrived to play for Madrid, he requested the number 7 jersey. However, it was already taken so, being a fan of the famous basketball player, Michael Jordon, he went with the number 23.

Though Beckham played impressively for the 2003 season,. the team struggled and fell far short of the expectations.

Beckham was thrown out of the game on three different occasions over the next two seasons.

The first was a foul on Wales player, Ben Thatcher, which he admitted to be intentional. He had been injured enough that he was sure of missing the next England match, so he decided to foul Thatcher in order to be expelled from the match in which he would not play anyway. He also stated that this was "a mistake" and he apologized.

The next incident was a game in which he received a yellow card and was seen sarcastically applauding the referee. This caused another yellow card which expelled him from the remainder of the game and suspended him from the next (though this decision was overruled two days later).

The third time was when he was sent off of a match against Getafe CF in the December of 2005.

Beckham continued to be one of Real Madrid's top players until he signed over to Los Angeles Galaxy (a Major League Soccer club) in July of 2007, after spending most of the second half of the 2007 season injured (appearing only 5 times with only 2 starts in the second half).

Los Angeles Galaxy

When LA Galaxy took David Beckham on, they offered him a contract worth $250 million, making him one of the highest paid players in the history of soccer.

Once he was a part of LA Galaxy, he decided to keep the number 23 Jersey.

He quickly became team captain and his talents became a vital part of the LA Galaxy team.

 

Not long into the first season, he received an injury in his ankle. The MRI showed that he had a bad sprain and would not be playing for six weeks.

He returned to the game in time to play the last home match of the season.

LA Galaxy was soon eliminated.

At the end of 2008, David Beckham's success in the England national team hinted that he might be going back to Europe.

It was soon announced that he would be playing for Milan on a loan. This would begin on January 7, 2009.

However, he made it known that he would by no means be leaving MLS and stated that he planned to return in time for the 2009 season.

Nevertheless, by February 4 David Beckham expressed his desire to make a permanent transfer to Milan. Yet, Milan failed to meet Galaxy's demands, but they did manage to get an extension on the loan.

He was to return to LA in July and finish the rest of the MLS season.

Milan soon managed to get a second loan for January of 2010.

Beckham returned to Milan in time to assist the team in 5-2 victory on January 6, 2010. He has performed extremely well for the team so far.

Known for his exceeding talent in goal scoring, David Beckham's amazing ability to get the ball to wherever he likes has made him one the most well known players in the history of soccer.

World-Class Superstar---Cristiano Ronaldo

World-Class Superstar.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Youth

Lionel Messi is an Argentinean soccer player who now lives in Barcelona, Spain and plays for FC Barcelona. HCristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro was born to Maria Dolores dos Santos Aveiro and Jose Dinez Aveiro in Madeira, Portugal on February 5, 1985. His mother named him Ronaldo after the US president, Ronald Reagan, and he bears no relation to the Brazilian forward, Ronaldo.

Young Ronaldo's talent was very aperant even from a young age. By the time he was 10 years old he had been accepted into the CD Nacional Madeira youth team. He quickly rose to being one of the top players in the league. By the time he was 12 years old he was considered the best player on the team.

At the age of 15 Cristiano Ronaldo was diagnosed with a racing heart. This threatened to end his soccer playing entirely. When this information reached the sporting staff, they authorized Ronaldo's mother to take him in for surgery. Fortunately, the surgery was successful and he was back to training within a short period.

Ronaldo's immense skill had now begun to draw the attention of scouts from multiple large soccer clubs such as Porto and Boavista. Liverpool considered bringing him in, but decided against it, reasoning that he was still too young and needed more experience.

Cristiano Ronaldo was then taken into Sporting Alcochete youth academy. He became the first player ever to play on the U-16, U-17, U-18, B-team, and first team all in the same season.

After a 3-1 win for Sporting against Manchester United, Sir Alex Furguson, the manager of Manchester United, decided that Cristiano Ronaldo would be a large contribution to the club and signed him on as the first Portuguese player for the club.

Once on the team, Ronaldo requested the number 28, because he wore this number on the Sporting team. However, Furguson insisted on giving him the number 7 which had been worn by many other highly experienced players such as Eric Cantona and David Bekham.

Not long after joining the club, Ronaldo's sportsmanship was questioned as he encouraged the referee to give fellow Manchester player Wayne Rooney a red card during the 2006 world cup.

This may have hurt his popularity, but he quickly won back the fans by winning seven major awards in 2007:

• FWA Footballer of the Year


• PFA Young Player of the Year


• PFA Player of the Year


• PFA Fans' Player of the Year


• Portuguese Footballer of the Year


• Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year


• Manchester United's Players' Player of the Year

At this time, rumors were circulating that Cristiano Ronaldo was considering trying to join a different soccer club. Nevertheless, he signed a five year extension of £31 million with Manchester United on April 13, 2007.

Real Madrid

However, on June 26, 2009, Manchester United signed Ronaldo over to Real Madrid for £80 million when he expressed a desire to leave the club.

Christiano Ronaldo now plays for Real Madrid and is one of the most well known players in the world.

Though Cristiano Ronaldo is still young and is in mid-career, he is renowned as one of the best players in the world. He has influenced many and is a large part of soccer history today.

World-Class SuperstarⅡ

Early Life

Marco Reus was born on May 31st, 1989. He is the son of Manuela and Thomas Reus. He has two older sisters.

His parents recognized early that Marco loved to kick things. For this reason, they sent him to play soccer for PSV Dortmund when he was four years old. Two years later the Bundesliga giant, Borussia Dortmund, contacted his parents.

He started playing for Dortmund and continued until he was 16. At this time he was told to leave the club as hecould not keep up with the standard of play for the team.

Reus then moved to Rot-Weiss Ahlen. In the 2008/09 season, he played his first year as a professional player in the third highest German league and found success. Borussia Mönchengladbach saw his potential and gave him a four-year contract.

Borussia Mönchengladbach

Gladbach paid about $1 million for Reus. He scored his first goal in the Bundesliga on August 28, 2009, having to make a 50 meter run to score!

After several good years, however, Gladbach started struggling again in the 2010/11 season. Nevertheless he scored a goal toward the end of the season that kept Gladbach in the Bundesliga.

The next season would be completely different, not only for Gladbach but also for Reus himself. Reus scored 18 goals in the 2011/12 season and was a key factor for Gladbach placing 4th in the Bundesliga!

In his contract extension in 2010, Reus has had a release clause for $18 million. This clause enabled Borussia Dortmund to sign their former youth player in the summer of 2012.

 

Borussia Dortmund

Reus had offers from several big European teams including German record champion, Bayern Munich, but he decided to go "home".

Dortmund is the club he loves and he never wanted to leave. Reus signed a five-year contract. His start was amazing. He scored twice in Dortmund's first round match in the German cup against Oberneuland. He also scored one goal in his first Bundesliga game for Dortmund when they beat Werder Bremen 2:1.

World-Class Superstar

Lionel Messi is an Argentinean soccer player who now lives in Barcelona, Spain and plays for FC Barcelona. He is a striker and has set an incredible example for other players to strive for.

 

Though he is still a young player and will have many more years to establish his legend, Lionel Messi has already fought his way to the top and is considered by many to be the greatest soccer player on earth.

 

Lionel Andrés Messi was born on June 24, 1987 in Rosario, Argentina to Jorge and Celia Messi.

He started playing soccer at the age of 5 for a small club owned by his father and switched over to Newell's Old Boys at the age of 8. Even as a young boy, he did very well in soccer.

When he was 11 years old, he was diagnosed with a hormone deficiency. His parents did not have the money to pay for his medical needs, so they looked around for a soccer club that would be able to do this for them.

River Plate looked into the young player, but did not have the £500 a month that would be required to support his medical needs.

Carles Rexach, the FC Barcelona Sporting Dircetor at the time, was of informed of young Lionel's talent and gratefully agreed to take him on if the family would move to Barcelona Spain.

The Messi family happily took the offer.

FC Barcelona

Upon entering the Barcelona soccer club, Messi excelled through his teen years. He was one of the better players on every team he played with.

He started with the junior team, but was soon moved to the B team, because of his great talent.

In the B team he scored 37 goals in 30 matchesright off the bat, which brought him up to the A team in what seemed to be no time at all.

In 2004, when he was only 17 years old, he made his official debut for the senior squad.

Later that same season, he scored a goal against Albacete, making him the youngest player to score for the club in a league game.

In 2005, while playing for the Argentina u-20 team, he received the golden bootfor becoming top scorer with 6 goals and also received the golden ball for being the best player in the tournament.

Messi has astounded the world with his incredible talent. He has led Barcelona to many victories, and has rightfully earned his place among the greatest.

The New Maradona

Many say that Messi is the greatest Argentinean soccer player since Maradona.

However many refer to him as "The New Maradona".

To further this title, Messi scored a miraculous goal which is often compared to Maradona's goal of the century.

Luis Enrique taking nothing for granted

FC Barcelona may have won the first leg in Manchester, but the first team manager knows there is still a difficult job to be done on Wednesday night.

discount Barcelona soccer jerseys

In his press conference before the Champions League game witt Manchester City,manager Luis Enrique sent out a message of confidence in his players, although he is very wary that the job is still only half done.

2-1 may have been the perfect result at the Etihad, but “we are taking nothing for granted against City. We’ll treat it as we did the first leg and try to go out and win the match. It was be very dangerous to think we can settle for a draw.”

He is also confirmed that Sergio Busquets will play no part in Wednesday’s match.

The following is a selection of other comments made by the first team coach on Tuesday:

On Winning the Game

“Possession is one of our objectives in every game. That gives us a better chance of controlling the situation”.

“I expect a similar game to the first leg. Last year they also came here after a negative result from the first leg and they caused us a lot of problems”.

Quality Opponent

“We’re playing against one of the favourites to win this competition. We’re only 50% through the round and you only have to look at their players to see how much potential they have”.

“City don’t look tired to me. I think they have every chance of turning this tie around and I’m sure they’ll be clinging onto that hope”.

“They are missing Clichy, but have a key player back in Toure. They’ll play with two forwards and depending on their approach, we’ll work out how we can cause them damage”.

No talk of Clasico

“There is only one game for us and that’s the one tomorrow. Nothing else matters to me right now”.

“Tomorrow’s game is sweet enough for me. It’s all I need for now”.

Magical night

“I sense that we are playing for a place in the quarter finals and that’s nice. We’ll be playing at home, in front of our fans, we’re in fine form and we hope to get a great result”.

“We need our fans to get us through moments of doubt”.

Andreas Iniesta- Spanish Soccer Star Invests In Wearable Jersey Cameras

One of the world’s biggest soccer stars is backing the use of wearable cameras. FirstV1sion, a Spanish tech startup, has partnered with FC Barcelona star Andreas Iniesta to raise close to 5.3 million for clothes with embedded cameras. Firstv1sion claims its cameras have broadcast quality recording.

 

The startup already has a contract with Euroleague basketball, a partnership with Serge Ibaka of the Oklahoma City Thunder, and Telefonica as a committed shareholder. Telefonica, a Spanish telecommunications provider, has already invested €60,000 in the startup.

FirstV1sion believes its cameras will give viewers a more immersive game by putting them in the eyes of the athlete. The technology is used to simulate speed, vertigo, emotion and excitement.

FirstV1sion is one of a kind. The camera is invisible, unlike mountable video cameras, like GoPro. The wires are built into the soccer jerseys and the camera does not add significant bulk or weight. The jerseys use RF transmission with a 100 meter range that do not suffer from delay. Cordoba CF, a Spanish La Liga team, were the first to test the device in-game. Luso, a 30 year old defensive midfielder for Cordoba, said that he was thinking about the device at first, but forgot about it as the game went on. A referee wore the device for a Barcelona versus Real Madrid game and that footage was sent out to 150 broadcasters around the world.

Homecoming Football Game

October is normally a very chilly time, but tonight was
different it was actually quite pleasant with a great, cool, calm
breeze. You could hear the crickets chirping in the meadow
across from the football field. Everybody was out enjoying the

beautiful weather for fall. It was a great night for a football game.

As I stood on the fifty-yard line I remember thinking,
“Please God, don’t let me trip while I’m walking up.” After saying
my little prayer, I looked up and saw so many faces, some that I
knew and other that I have never seen before.
“Oh mom, please stop taking so many pictures, I can’t see
any more.”Even though, deep down inside I was loving every
moment of fame my mother was giving me. The band was
playing Hero; the drums were a little off, but it was still good.
The bright, white stadium lights were shimmering like stars. The
stands were packed with people that were here to see the Ridge
Lions vs. our rivals Bedford Bisons, but not only that, it was our
senior year, our last homecoming football game and the last one
of the century.
I can remember the announcer saying my best friends,
name, “Brandi Claycomb, escorted by her father Joe Claycomb.
Brandi is involved in many of our activities at Ridge, such as . . .”
“Oh my God, I’m next,” I thought as my uncle squeezed my
shoulder, he calmly looked at me and said, “Don’t worry!” The
announcer finally said, “Rebekah Ritchey escorted by her uncle
Glenn Bowser. Becky is involved in many of activities at ridge,
such as . . . ” “Well, I made it down the line, now I have to wait of
one more girl to be announced Kim Sarver . . . ” Finally the last
of five candidates have been called. You could see the look of
proudness on my family’s face as I stood there with my Uncle
Glenn. When the announcer announced last years queen,
everybody knew that it was time for a new queen to be crowned.
I looked at my uncle and said, “Natalie Boyer.” Just as I said
that the announcer called my name, Rebekah Ritchey. My
friends were screaming so loud. It could be heard ten miles
away. My squad cheered. My friend Amy dropped her clarinet
and started yelling, and my mom and sister were crying and
taking pictures.
I couldn’t believe they called my name, a lot of people were
shocked, but other people were just, Wow, Rebekah, I
remember her when she was so young. Cameras flashing, yells
of joy, video’s taping, and people talking, these were all
happening at once. I was so excited that I was crying.
When Sarah Pittman crowned me the squad did a line of
mounts, and they were the best ones that they have ever done.
After, what seemed like a brief minute, the pre game was done
and out came our team! The crowd was on their feet, dancing to
the band, and clapping their hands. Game time! I quickly ran to
my mom, hugged her and left to change, of course after a million
more pictures. I made it down with three minutes left in the first
quarter, and we were actually winning six to zero. Needless to
say, after the game, the final score was thirty-six to six. We may
have lost, but I had a great time.

Football and Business

Decisions are a part of everyday life. While some can affect lives for a day, others affect a lifetime.

There comes a time in one’s life when he will need to select a career or a certain field to concentrate in, in order to make a living. A career that is most suited for a person’s desires can be chosen after making a conscious effort to review the positive and negative sides of both options. The fields of football and business are difficult to have careers in. There are many obstacles and steps involved in getting into either field. Most business managers will not hire an unmotivated, unskilled, unreliable worker, they want, “intelligence, passion… enthusiasm, ability to cope with turbulent environments, and marketing experience.”(Martin) These traits only come to those who wish to achieve.

For football however, there are two ways of getting in. Some people are just born with a knack for football. The parents are 5’11” and 5’10’ and their kid will grow to be 6’5”, with speed like a cheetah and hands that seem to have glue on them. The other possibility on how to get into the NFL is hard work. Getting down to the nitty-gritty and pushing your mind and body to its limits are the attributes useful in achieving success. As well as personal characteristics, there are some physical characteristics that go with both fields. According to lawyer Norman Katnik, an associate of Katnik & Katnik Law, “Anyone can be a business man, short, fat, tall, skinny, white, black, anyone, but not everyone can play football. Typically linemen are 6’4” 280 pounds, running backs are usually 200 pounds and quarterbacks are usually 6’2”.” Another way to get in to either field is by a persons performance, such as degree in Business Administration or, for the athletes, finishing four to five years of college. The accomplishments will allow business officers and general managers to recognize those that have achieved the things that will distinguish them in their specific fields.

There are requirements needed in order to start a business. “Sometimes times are rough, you’ll need ‘stick-to-itiveness’ and you’ll need to put blinders on and focus or you will lose track of what you were trying to achieve,” said Katnik. “I was even forced to work sixteen-hour days, which amounted to over seventeen hours a week. It seemed as though my family had become second to my career and I realized that no job was worth putting my family second,” said Katnik. Family is something that must be giving up in whichever field a person chooses. In Mr. Katnik’s case his sixteen-hour days limited time that he could be spending with his family. In football many hours are spent preparing. Many hours are spent working out, watching film, practicing, and studying game film all of which take away from other leisure activities and other career opportunities. “If players were smart they would use their time and status to market themselves so when they get out of the NFL they will have something to fall back on,” said Katnik. An example of this is NFL player Trevor Pryce of the Denver Broncos who used his popular status to begin a record label. He says that music will be his career after football. There are many hours spent that must be strictly dedicated to football. During “Hell Week” practices are held twice a day, sometimes three times a day each of which can last two hours. A typical NFL player’s schedule is bed check at 10pm, waking up at 6am, attending a mandatory breakfast, going to a mandatory stretch session at 8am, light lifting at 9am, heading to the dorms at the practice facility and finally they begin practice at 11am which will last to 1:30pm. They then eat lunch at 2pm, attend physical therapy at 3:30pm, then they lift again at 5pm, eat at 6pm, and then practice between 8pm and 9:45pm. It takes a tremendous amount of time. Mr. Katnik was asked if football took so long that it became un-enjoyable. He replied, “Heck no, I like the work ethic involved.”

Business also consumes a lot of time. An owner must go through the financial aspects, set up business plans, decide what advertising will be used, how marketing will be spread out, who they will hire, and tons of other ins and outs. Mr. Katnik thinks, “Business takes as much time as you want it to take. You can work less if it makes you happy, stop working, or work as much as possible.” It all depends on how much a person wants to make. “The sacrifices I made in the beginning [sixteen hour days and giving up family time] have really paid off. Now I can take more time off and I wont be endanger, but it was a lot of hard work.” When asked if business took too much time, Mr. Katnik responded by saying, “Not necessarily because the harder you work the more you will make.” When asked if reducing time would be detrimental to business he said, “No. Reduction in hours greatly improved my attitude. When it took longer I didn’t really like it that much and there comes a point where a person must realize that things are taking too long and you need to take it easy. You cannot conquer the world in the first ten years.” For a person to start a business many things must be taken into consideration.

Would starting or pursuing a business in a persons current home town be more beneficial than having to relocate? Does it matter where a business is located? Depending on what type of business a person wants to start, he should consider moving to a place where the demand for the service or product that the business provides is highest. For instance a person who lives in Orange, California and wants to be a ski instructor would have to move to a place where it is possible to ski since you cannot be a ski teacher without snow. So if “Joe the ski instructor” has his heart set on being a ski instructor and feels it is his passion, he should move. On the other hand, some people feel that location does not matter and although resources are scarce, they feel as though there will be no difference between staying and leaving. Josh Beggs, a co-founder of web development company Raspberry Media, lives in a town of 7700. He feels that even though his resources are not abundant and the amount of resources he has will not affect where he chooses to do business. The choice to stay in a small town forced Beggs to overcome many obstacles, “We had a skunk problem for about a month. Then there were difficulties of getting a T-1 line out in the boonies.” The possibility of being forced to stay in a location because of whatever reason may cause more of an uphill battle to begin a business.

There are also many difficulties in pursuing a football career. Football begins as just a sport in high school, but as players go onto college or pro it becomes more of a business or a job. It is difficult to obtain a job because no matter how hard a player works he is only as good as his team. Because of this it is difficult to stand out and be noticed. When Joe Montana played for the Kansas City Chiefs, he had already been deemed as one of the best quarterbacks of all time. He was great, but his team’s record was horrendous. So even though he was there, and he was great, his team brought his performance down. Another obstacle players must overcome in their journey to succeed is injuries. Injuries can range from small pain to deadly collisions. Mr. Katnik believes that in football a player has a higher possibility of being injured then a business has of failing. He says that, “Even if you fail in business, it doesn’t mean you can’t keep trying since you can always start over.”

Studies performed by the University of Florida have shown that over a twenty five year period NFL teams averaged 12.7 significant game related injuries and 5.0 major injuries a year. Significant injuries were injuries where a player was forced to miss at least two consecutive games and a major injury was when a player missed eight or more games including career ending injuries. In a report done by Dunn & Bradstreet from 1986 to 1996 a total of about 1036 businesses failed, a total percentage of about 10.36% out of 10,000 businesses. Compared to a major injury rate of about 8.7% of football. Mr. Katnik believed that the injury rate was higher than the business failure rate. He also believed that football would be more profitable as a career. “If you can avoid a career ending injury and have a long NFL career, you can make reasonably more than in business,” said Katnik. On average NFL players make a base salary of $410,208 per year, not including incentives or signing bonuses. The average manager of an Internet company for example earns about $73,382. Another factor comes into play when making a decision in choosing a career. Love. Rarely do individuals succeed without loving what he or she does. When Mr. Katnik was asked whether or not he loved football he said, “Yes. I enjoy the team atmosphere. I definitely miss my teammates since they made is so much fun.” When asked if he loved business he replied, “Absolutely, I love the challenge. Everyday is something new, challenging and exciting. Trying cases is gratifying.” Unless you love your job you most likely will not excel at it. Ex high school football player Skyler Champion was an exceptional running back. He set the all-time rushing record for a single game. Yet he never practiced with passion, enthusiasm, or love for the game. He went off to college and played for about four months before quitting. He quit because he “Didn’t love the game anymore since it seemed like a job.” Skyler never loved his “job” so he never got very far with it.

Football and business are two careers that involve many factors, and both seem like beneficial professions. Each individual interested in these fields should base their choice on their opinions of the things needed to fulfill the duties of the occupation, as well as fulfilling their desire for the occupation.

Soccer is a popular sport

Soccer is a popular sport played all over the world. Even though it has only been popular in the United States for the past 30 years, soccer has been a long time favorite most
everywhere else. The sport dates back to the Egyptians, who played games involving the
kicking of a ball. Now, the sport has grown to a global pastime, including men’s and
women’s teams, and the World Cup (which is played every four years).
Soccer originated with kicking games played by people in ancient civilizations. The
modern version came about in the early nineteenth century, in England. It started as a
game involving kicking and handing, but later this branched off into two separate sports:
rugby and football (which is what the English call soccer). Around the late nineteenth
century, English soccer began spreading over Europe. Other countries also caught on, but
the United States was one of the most reluctant, and one of the last to implement soccer
as a national sport. The North American Soccer League (NASL) was formed in 1968. But
it didn’t gain popularity until the 1970’s.
The modern game of soccer has a simple goal: kick or head the ball in to the goal of your
opponent’s team. Basically, there is also one simple rule: No one except the goalkeeper
may use they’re hands to play the ball. Soccer is a simplistic sport. Eleven members of
each team defend their side of the field to prevent the ball from being forced into their
goal, which results in a point scored by the team kicking the ball. There are only three
officials involved during play: The referee, and two linesmen.
The equipment used in soccer is also very simple. In addition to the field itself, all that is
needed for a game is two goals (eight feet high and eight yards apart) and a ball. Each
player wears hard plastic or padded shingaurd, covered by long socks, for protection
during play. Cleats are also worn for traction on the field. A goalie may also wear a
special padded shirt, and gloves to protect his or her hands. A standard field, as regulated
by the Federation Internationale de Football Association (or FIFA), has a length between
100 and 130 yards, and a width of between 50 and 100 yards.
The rules of play for soccer have deliberately been kept simple. The referee makes most
of the decisions, and attempts to encourage fair play. The game starts off with a kick off,
and the teams are allowed to pass, dribble, juggle, head, kick, and shoot the ball to place
it down the field, and (hopefully, or eventually) into their opponent’s goal. If the ball is
kicked off the field over the length of the field, the other team is given a throw-in, where
the ball is thrown over the player’s head, and back onto the field. If the ball is kicked over
the goal, or across the width of the field, either a corner kick results (by the offensive
team, where the ball is placed on the corner of the field and kicked into play) or the
defensive team is awarded a goal kick, where the ball is placed on the corner of the goal
box, and kicked back into play. If a goal is scored, the ball is taken back to the center of
the field, and the team scored against kicks off.
Other penalties include direct and indirect free kicks, and penalty kicks. For offenses such
as shoving and tripping, either a direct free kick (offenses not in the goal box) or a penalty
kick (inside the goal box) is awarded. Both allow goals to be made directly from the
kicks. If a minor offense is being punished, then an indirect free kick is given, form which
a goal cannot be scored.
Most soccer games have 45-minute halves, and the clock is not stopped except for
injuries or deliberate time wasting. In professional soccer, only three to five substitutions
are allowed per half. Generally, more are allowed in lower leagues.
Soccer is now recorded as being the fastest growing sport in America at high school and
college levels. There are also an estimated 13 million girls and boys under 18 who
currently participate in the sport. It is not just becoming a national pastime, but a pastime
loved and shared by people all over the world.
