0 Brazil defeated by Mexico

Mexico heated Brazil in the final of the soccer tournament by 2-1 and took home the gold medal of the 2012 London Olympics.

Even with a selection full of stars such as Neymar and Hulk (came on 31 minutes), the Brazilians found themselves losing after just 30 seconds with a goal by Oribe Peralta, who was to have encore in the second half to 75 minutes.

Brazil still reduced by Hulk at 90 +1', but the Mexicans were doing the party, preventing the "canary" selection to reach the Olympic title after five appearances in the final (Los Angeles 1984, Seoul 1988, Atlanta 1996, Beijing 2008 and London 2012).

On Friday, South Korea had won the bronze medal after beating Japan by 2-0.

0 Spain wins the Euro 2012

The Spanish team beat Italy. The game yesterday was a clear demonstration of the high quality of the Spanish team. The Spanish team was able to score 4 goals to an Italian team that was not in his best performance. It is not normal in Italian teams so easily penetration in their defensive lines, but this may be indicative of an powerful attack from the Spanish team. Italy was unable to prevent the "tic-tac" of the Spanish midfield and therefore Spain was able to dominate a team that neutralized, in the last game, the powerful Germany. Spain has confirmed that it has a great team and can win every competition that participates. Judging by the younger teams is expected that Spain is the principal candidate to win the next competitions in the future.

Today is the D day for the European Championship 2012. The game will be played between the Spanish team and Italian team. The octopus Platini made ​​a mistake when he said that the finalists would be the Germans and Spanish. The Italian team was able to neutralize the German team with great class. The result is misleading view of the unrealized opportunities of goals created by Italy in the last 15 minutes of the second period. Spain will have to work hard to defeat the moralized Italy.
It is expected a very complicated match for both teams, but at the same time a great football game. I hope a just victory to the winner team!

0 Super Mario eliminates the German team

With two excellent goals from clipping technical the striker Mario Balotelli secured the passage of Italy to the final of Euro 2012.

0 Paolo Maldini believes in CR7

The brilliant player Maldini believes Cristiano Ronaldo will win the "Ballon d'Or"" this year. The player believes that despite its start a little shy at EURO 2012, his last games revealed a confident player, able to motivate a team and an entire country. For him there is no doubt: Cristiano Ronaldo will be rewarded with the prize claiming to be more than fair. Note that the Portuguese player has shown great quality for all clubs wherever he played. Indeed, this is an evidence that Lionel Messi has not yet shown.

0 Monstrous wage for Kaka

The Brazilian player Kaka was invited to play to China for the modest sum of 18 million euros per season. The proposal came from Guangzhou Evergrande club that wanted to stand out from other existing proposals from clubs like AC Milan, PSG, Sao Paulo and New York Red Bulls. If the contract takes effect, the Chinese club will still have to pay 25 million euro. But the president of the Chinese club does not seem to worry about this issue.

0 France defeated by Spain

The French team was eliminated from the Euro 2012 against the powerful Spanish team. It was almost a game dominated by Spain which was clearly the best team in the field. In the first period the French team was unable to stop the Spanish midfield and suffered with it. In the second period the french team attitude was quite different. The team fitted the Spanish midfield and got few dangerous moves. Overall it was a fair victory of the Spanish team that, in its unnerving way to play, won the French team being more effective. The man of the match was, of course, Xabi Alonso scoring two goals of his team.
We will wait for a great match between Spain and Portugal!

0 EURO 2012

Started yesterday another edition of the European championship. This event, will take place in Poland and Ukraine and it will be a great opportunity for some young talents who promised to be the future stars of football. On the other hand, can also be an opportunity to the confirmation of some players; I'm reminding myself of Cristiano Ronaldo that he have the possibility to confirm what many people think that he should win the Golden Boot. Yesterday we saw that even the non favorite teams are able to play good football and have good players too. My expectation about the game between Portugal and Germany is that it will be a good game.

0 The importance of an agent in soccer

I'm browsing into a website dedicated to soccer, and i'm curious about the importance of agents in this sport. We all know that agents who represent players, have a "portfolio" with names that try to put them in the best clubs, always with their profits as principal interest.
I wonder if the list of players represented by an agent is a determining factor when a club wants to hire a player. Do the clubs first consult the list of names and then choose who they want to hire?

0 Chilean team is the No. 2 says the IFFHS

0 Bruno Alves coming back to FC Porto?

Bruno Alves left FC Porto two years ago, heading to Russia to represent Zenit but the Portuguese international has not forgotten the long period that marked his career in Portugal and says that he wants to return to the club that launched him in the soccer world. Porto was not indifferent to the desire of his former No. 2 and is considering bringing back Bruno Alves. The return of the central back may be forthcoming, however, nothing is taken for granted and one of the main obstacles is quite possibly the wage that Bruno Alves earns at the Russian club.

0 Hulk will leave the Portuguese league

Unsurprisingly, Hulk was considered the best player in the Portuguese league season 2011/2012. Despite producing less than in 2010/2011, the Brazilian striker was decisive in winning another title with FC Porto. Givanildo Vieira de Souza took the leading role, especially in the last third of the championship, having scored nine goals in 10 games. Some of his "victims" at this stage were "only" Benfica, Braga, Sporting and Maritimo and he was also the player with most assists in the First Division of the Portuguese League. These performances helped Roman Abramovich to open again the purse strings to re-fill the Dragon vaults, in order to bring Hulk to Chelsea. It is curious that, despite the increased prominence and also his presence in the Brazil national team several times, it seems that the player is still not well known in the country where he was born because for most brazilians, the player standed out, recently emerging when he scored two goals against Denmark.
