"Without obsession, the Tenth come"

Jose Mourinho is already thinking about the future. The coach of Real Madrid stayed discreetly in the background during the visit of Real Madrid for institutions to offer the people of Madrid the 32 th League white, but slipped to the media two clear messages: the tenth will come "without obsessions" and club and the future plans.

Mourinho was one of the most acclaimed actors in the institutional tour of champions league. While declining to speak publicly, did so for televsiones covering acts. He expressed confidence in achieving the Champions League with Madrid "within a year or in two."

"I am a lucky, despite losing some won semifinal two. Some of these kids have never achieved and the Real Madrid looks for the tenth. Without obsession, quietly, if they do things as we are doing after two semi-finals come the next year or two.'s obsession does not help and sleep. "

"At this point, I think of the future, it is time to end the celebrations. The finish today, players think of the Euro and I'll get to work and think about next season because Real Madrid will not let you sleep in the conquered . You have to think ahead, "he said.

In addition, re-emphasized Mou merit a league full of records to the story: "They are incredible numbers. If before you had told me we would win with 90 points and 80 goals, had signed. In the end we won with historical numbers have been broken every record imaginable. Real Madrid has a great story but these guys are going to be remembered as the 100 points, "he said.

They start rumors: Falcao for Torres?

Chelsea goes for Radamel Falcao and is willing to include in the transaction to Fernando Torres. At least according TeleMadrid, who reported that the English club offer from Madrid striker plus 15 million for the 'Tigre'.

Both the output direction Falcao England around the Calderon Torres are two rumors that have been echoed in the media in recent months. Atletico could be forced to sell to Colombia after failing to get into Champions, as recognized by Miguel Angel Gil Marin last week.

Real Madrid imposes the strength of the group

Real Madrid has become the best champion of all time. Has outdone himself and the best record of Barcelona Guardiola. While Messi and Valdés have reaped the individual title of the League, the team led by Jose Mourinho has triumphed by the force of a group worthy of sign in the Guinness Book.

Of all the great standard white campus has been a Cristiano Ronaldo who has achieved spectacular numbers. Messi has not been able to hand in their particular hand, but his 46 goals a year confirmed him as a striker that has driven spectacular Real Madrid to the 121 goals in 38 games.

Messi did not score against Betis but kept its distance from the Portuguese. If Christian last season put the mark in a record layer, the crack now puts Barca in 50 goals. The figure may be repeated.

Practically most of the Brand Trophies were determined on the last day. Victor Valdes Zamora had secured the prize for a conference. Iker Casillas and Courtois ecudan him on the podium of the best goalkeepers of the course.

In Miguel Muñoz Trophy won for the second consecutive Jose Mourinho, whose achievements left behind Pep Guardiola's work or Juan Ignacio Martinez.

The national top scorer award with Soldier took him 17 goals, while the best collegiate was Carlos Delgado Ferreiro, Basque school referee, who beat Fernando Teixeira Vitienes.

Del Bosque: "On 27 Villa will decide whether the Euro"

Vicente del Bosque gave the first squad ahead of the Euro in Poland and Ukraine and assured that "on 27 decide whether David Villa will be on the list. That day make a final decision. She is recovering from his injury and of course can come to the Euro in Poland and Ukraine. We'll know later. "

"We know how it is every day, how your recovery process. Are optimistic. It is a singular case. On May 27 we will take a final decision. Yet are Barcelona players, Athletic and Chelsea, because they are in competition. It is the same case of David Villa, "he said.

The national coach said he did not call players from Barcelona, ​​Athletic and Chelsea because they have not finished the season in Cup final and final of the Champions League. "There is no player of Barça and Athletic because they lsland Cup final. From cheea not the Champions League final," he acknowledged.

"Before giving the final list next May 27 will decide which players not with us for Euro 20,112," said a Vicente del Bosque also had words on two of the developments in this squad. "Beñat Isco and two future events for selection. Are with us. Isco has had a great season in Malaga."

"Our concern now is to choose the best. course we have concerns about whether there may be a setback in the emotion of the players. We want to get in top condition. not going to do a pre-season to the Championship. be an extension of the season that has been disputed. hope to make a good competition, "said Del Bosque.

When asked about their preferences when facing the last few weeks ahead of the Euro in Poland and Ukraine, the Spanish coach acknowledged that "our obligation is to adapt to the circumstances and reaching optimum conditions for the Euro. If I'll be present in the final of Copa del Rey? not think that's important because we will be there anyway. "

About the Benfica player, Javi Garcia, the coach said that "almost every Monday I care to see players who are overseas. Those who play well with the prize to come. This is the case of Javi Garcia."

CR7 conquers the kingdom with a prodigious party

The more you yell, worse. Because more is growing. And if Christian and makes a difference without being bitten, when he feels persecuted is lethal. You can go to take a right to electrocute the ball and in through the square owned by the St. Vitus dance. Of course, those who once whistled, now sit back in silence. This happened yesterday in the old Sadar, Ronaldo hostile territory, where his two previous visits and had won or had marked. Retaliated last night with a performance that will take time to forget in Pamplona. Brace of goals and assists.

The local parish soon nor a minute to throw pepper in the eye. At the start of heating, the warble of 'the Portuguese ...' invaded the hottest fund pinko feud. Rather than duck down, the Luso grabbed a ball and close enough to be seen, but timely away not to tempt fate, began to juggle with the ball. It was a message. "Pitad, pitad, then we see."

And both. He started the match and grabbed the ball that put the first goal in Benzema. He had previously led to two faults, one with yellow Sergio. All this in six minutes. He followed with two heels. And told with an air-ground missile that almost slips. The second time lucky. Golazo right leg out of a portentous. He pulled up his pants to show it and he had his moment of glory.

In the second half down the piston. Higuain is cluttered with no goal and one goal between them soured sung. He avoided going to shock aware that he carries a yellow suspension. But never forget the 7 of Madrid. Before finishing the match ended its losing streak at the launch of faults. He signed his double-throw.

After the celebration, turned to the warm background, looked at his fist. His dedication. Higuain then attended the fifth, which completed the scoring.

"It is not unusual to want the best average scorer in Europe"s

Gonzalo Higuain is still news. Not just for his goals, two against Espanyol, for a total of 16 in the league, and its incredible effectiveness , but for their future. A future on the horizon is emerging a big name in Europe: Juventus of Turin.

Gonzalo's father, Jorge, told BRAND reports in recent days in Italy, aimed at the revival of interest in Juventus striker Real Madrid: "It is not unusual to be interested in the striker with the best average of Europe."

El Pipa, who has the career of his son with his representative, 'Cacho' Recassens adds that "it is not the only club Juventus, there are many teams interested in Europe."

MARK picks up these words of Jorge Higuain on the same day that 'Tuttosport' echoes other statements of the parent of a player, that says, among other things: "We are honored the interest of Juventus. Now Gonzalo thinks of Madrid, talk in May. season enters its decisive phase and Gonzalo think winning the league and the Champions League with Madrid. The interest of Juventus and there was a year ago, but wanted to stay in Madrid Gonzalo. "

"Now, Jorge Higuain added as' Tuttosport'-the possibility of a transfer to a team like Juventus can only enorgullecerle, but soon. In May my son and I will analyze the situation and be willing to talk with Juve ".

Keita had the keys to the bus

Barcelona beat Sporting Gijon in a duel of high demands for the Catalans. Clemente bolted in your area and Guardiola struggled to find holes. Keita was instrumental in making the first and scored the second goal to tie after Barral. With the match decided, Xavi signed the third.

The technician sportinguista predicted an encounter in which his players would play the ball just 12 minutes. If there were 12, it seemed. Barcelona was one of those games he catches the ball and just let go, but that did not reported the usual number of occasions.

The Asturian made a very serious game at defensive end. Just holes left behind and the Catalans took God and help them create problems for John Paul.

Before the break Barca went ahead through Iniesta, one of the best in the game. The manchego almost accidentally pushed a pass from the death of Hadrian. However, the merit of the play must give to Keita, who was the one who enabled the Brazilian in the area.

The game changed in two minutes
the game went into halftime giving the impression that it was impossible to escape Barca is three points. It took two minutes into the second half to knock down that idea.

Velasco Carballo, who ate two penalties-Piqué expelled for bringing down of the Caves on the edge of the area. A questionable expulsion was accompanied by a goal from Barral a minute later. In two minutes, Barça grew dwarfs.

Barca were replaced and, despite the inferiority did not lose the game handles. I was struggling to find the final pass after three quarters came to court, so I decided to test Keita from the front. The Malian broke the tie with a goal into the top corner in the closing stages.

The Sporting both left groggy, who conceded a third soon after. Iniesta Xavi enabled only within the area and the Barca captain said.

Injury Alexis
addition to the red Pique, the worst news of the match for Barcelona's injury was Alexis Sanchez. Already in the discount, and exhausted all changes, Chilean left the pitch with discomfort in the groin.

FIFA has the rule of penalty and expulsion

Two companies, Hawkeye and GoalfRef have been chosen for the next phase of testing of the technology of the line (GLT) today approved IFAB as the International Board of Football Associations (for its acronym in English) At its meeting of Surrey (England).

Those responsible for safeguarding and change the rules of football examined the report submitted by the independent testing institute EMPA on the first phase of tests carried out between November and December 2011 with eight companies of GLT, and outlined the procedures continue in the second phase, between March and June 2012.

Both companies were approved by the IFAB to participate in the second part of testing. Hawkeye system uses optical recognition cameras, while GoalRef uses a magnetic field with a special balloon to identify a goal situation.

The second phase, which will run between March and June 2012, will be rigorously assessed the reliability and accuracy of each system.

After this period, will hold a special meeting of the IFAB in Kiev on July 2 to make a decision on final passage of the GLT.

Also approved the use of women's football hijab (headscarf as Islamic dress code), a fact that was received with great satisfaction by Prince Ali Bin Al Hussein, vice president of FIFA, as subsequently reflected in a statement.

"I am deeply grateful that he may prosper the proposal to allow women to cover their heads in football," said the leader, who said he is convinced that this measure will accelerate once the health and safety studies will be finally adopted at the special meeting of July 2.

On the other hand, the IFAB received the report on the experiment with additional assistant referees, launched in the Champions League and Europa League, as well as competitions in Brazil, Morocco and Qatar, and makes the final decision at the meeting in Kiev after defeating the Euro.

In contrast, there flourished in this fourth session 126 substitution in the games he has extension and inclusion of a new text regarding the rule of "triple punishment" according to the recommendations of the Task Force working group Football 2014 Cup.

Currently, the player who prevents a clear shot on goal in the area by a punishable act, is punished with the penalty shot, expulsion and suspension accordingly.

Kun's dream is Real

A Sergio Aguero Lionel is his eyes lit up when he heard the news Friday conducted by MARK . The Argentine, who live their happy days in Manchester after six months of difficult adjustment, has never hidden his desire to return to Spain, where it exploded footballing country.

Moreover Madrid, the city where he spent the last five years of his life, where he met his wife is now and where Benjamin was born, her first child. So last summer Kun lasted until the last minute if he finally made his move to Real Madrid. In the end, he had to pack up to go to the City.

His first six months in Manchester, as recognized by this Friday MARK sources of their families, were "very hard". Aguero and Yanina had to adapt to a new country with a different language, other times, customs ... Although sports performance in the City has been spectacular since the first day, Kun was looking forward to the Christmas break to leave Manchester and go home. It was a hard semester Agüero family.

Training with his teammates, the parties to the City, the victories, football, Kun helped them adapt to life in Manchester. Now, six months after his arrival, Aguero and his family begin to feel comfortable in England, accustomed to the new pace of life, built in the city, but always with the memory of Majadahonda in memory.

Athletically, El Kun is excited in the City. His team dominated the Premier League with an iron fist and he showered praise. His last performance in the Champions League match against Porto put their feet the entire British press, which has spent the week comparing him to his father, the great Diego Armando Maradona.

The board of 'God'
Maradona was precisely one of the first people who recommended fichara by Real Madrid. He did it first in private and then public. The Fluff did see his son that his growth was stagnating Atletico and to advance their careers should jump into a big one.

Now Kun silent on his future, but with a smile on. He knows the story advanced by MARK is inappropriate for him, for the City and Madrid. It focuses on getting the double with his current team, Premier League and Europe, in his first season in England.

Then when the season ends, it's time to think of the next. Be living again in July in Madrid and entrenándose to Mourinho would be a dream come true for Aguero, but the Argentine is very clear that the drama of last summer can not be repeated.

You do not want to become overly optimistic, because it is aware that two consecutive transfers a player of his level through rarely occur. Athletically, is delighted at the City-the club gives superstar treatment, and their adaptation to the city is completed. But Madrid throws much.

Meanwhile, in the offices of the Bernabéu same thing happens with Mou's trip to London, no one bats an eye. Higuain is untouchable for Mou and the club and only if it's Pipit who wants to leave Real Madrid will start the machinery. Not before.

Piqué: "I feel that the removal was deliberate"

The center of Barcelona, ​​Gerar Pique, left the game in the second half after being expelled for an offense on De las Cuevas. The center believes that the collegial decision was unfair. "During the break I told the referee that it was Keita penalty and he has kept. I have the feeling of premeditation," he said after the match against Sporting.

Clearly, this season has been very fortunate not to Pique. Guardiola brought him into the starting lineup after being absent at the Calderon, center back but did not finish the game after seeing a red card (just in the opinion of Andujar Oliver). He had to overthrow Miguel de las Cuevas when preparing to face sportinguista solo Victor Valdes.

Pique has not had the continuity that would have wanted. Pep has already made it clear that not too happy with his current form but before the media has always made clear that the fundamental focus is on your computer.

Withdraw a notice of Pepe Reina for his alleged racist

"Do you believe that colored fellow at Liverpool will laugh with this joke?". So you ask Simon Woolley , spokesman for the Operation Black Vote (OBV), to Pepe Reina . This British organization considers one of his latest racist ad by the way in which marked out an African tribe. The advertising company has withdrawn the spot.

The insurance company has preferred signature campaign to prevent. The force of the press in the United Kingdom may harm the image of any brand, especially on an issue on which the country has a peculiar sensibility. "Queen has lived and worked here for over a decade. Do you think that is well characterized and the blacks?" Asks Woolley in words that collect Mirror Football .

The news Surprised Spanish goalkeeper in concentration of the selection. It is not the first accusation of this type that receives a Liverpool player this season. Striker Luis Suarez was punished for a racist assumptions to Evra , who plays for Manchester United.

The spokesman curious accusations end up with another question to Queen : How would he feel if England estereotipásemos to the Spanish as underdeveloped, stupid and gay?

Groupama , the advertiser, has issued a statement denying that the video removed from slipping a message offensive or discriminatory.

The Liverpool has been detached from any responsibility. Media such as The Independent suggests that the club could force Queen to publicly apologize to the level of outrage it has caused some social pressure groups.

The Madrid is unfazed by Mourinho's journey

Real Madrid have not been nervous about the whirlwind Mourinho to London, although the British press has speculated that it is a step towards that change of scene and is in the Premiership next season.

"We do not have the slightest problem with Mourinho's trip to London," say from the club. Interpret it as a normal part of the plans of a coach who had two days off and used to search a house in the English capital and incidentally do some shopping. In fact, the Portuguese was seen photographing the streets with the people who were recognized and had no problems in traveling on a scheduled flight. Mou had nothing to hide or to hide.

One of the reasons listed in England to ensure he will leave Real Madrid is the fact that Mou took to close the purchase of a home in one of the most luxurious areas in London. It has two apartments and the purchase of this property does not meet more than a financial investment Luso coach. He also used to shop at Harrods, which he left with some donuts. Not concealed at any time.

Your tour feeds the rumor mill and you will start looking benches. There is talk of three possibilities: Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal. There are three options you may have open. At Chelsea it is not safe to continue his compatriot Andre Villas Boas. Also unclear is the future of Wenger at Arsenal. And, Tottenham exists the possibility of directing the end Redknapp England.

Good relationship with Florentino
's premises Bernabeu are no strangers to rumors generated by each movement of Mourinho, his statements and what happens on the bench of the leading English clubs.

But Real Madrid are planning the next season with the Portuguese, who intends to continue his winning cycle in the club. Nobody has unnerved. Quite the contrary. The energies are focused on winning the league, where they are 10 points apart, and try to get the desired Tenth. The Champions League is his main goal. Win only if the output could be raised.

Are little more than three months of the season and even the Portuguese coach will not allow that nothing can harm the good atmosphere in the workforce and its excellent relationship with Florentino, with whom he has a good tune.

The left is Marcelo

Coentrao's injury concluded the debate on the left side. It will not be for long. Just need time to recover from Coentrao muscle injury. The Luso was injured for his country and returned to Madrid yesterday. He was in Valdebebas and confirmed the extent of his injury. The club has offered no medical report, but in principle it will be about three weeks out with an adductor contracture.

It is the third Coentrao muscle injury this season. Dropped last September against the Levant and was out for a month. In November he returned with an overload after playing the Euro respesca for forcing him to miss the clash against Valencia. The other injury was mild synovitis in the knee that prevented him measured at Malaga.

Brazil, meanwhile, has also returned to play for his country, which finally seems to win the job. Forgotten some differences with Mano Menezes, logic prevails in the country, where he was strange not to see the Real Madrid in the left field.

Now that Marcelo seems to have found his place with Brazil, doubts came to him where he least expected, in Madrid. Until this year it was undisputed ownership. But the arrival of Coentrao has been relegated to the bench more than I imagined. Many were surprised by his substitution, especially in games such signal as the two of Barcelona in the Copa del Rey, before the return of the Super Cup in Camp Nou, and recently the first leg of the Champions League against CSKA.

In Europe, however, not strange, since most of Mou has thrown Brazilian Portuguese, who has left home in just two games for the six of Luso.

More matched
Anyway, Marcelo has been losing minutes and the balance has quite matched relative to the start of the season, when looking accommodate Mou Coentrao in the midfield. Since I gave up with this experiment, the Luso has been eating the Brazilian field. In aggregate, Marcelo has played two games more than teammate (27 for 25) and six as a starter (25 to 18). Within minutes, also won the Brazilian (2159 by 1769).

Mou, meanwhile, has always placed Marcelo as the first side: "Coentrao not come as left-back Marcelo is the best ever in that position," he said at the beginning of the season.

Kaka recommends a giant challenge

Kaka has left Brazil holidays convinced that he and his team will win this season, despite the difficulty to be competing against Barcelona, ​​which does not hesitate to admit that is a challenge that will face.

If something has this player is that his faith guides him in both his personal and professional life, to overcome all obstacles that are presented. So it has been told Mourinho and his companions: "I have really wanted to win at Real Madrid and I am sure I will and win titles."

That personal strength to the group wanted to pass it by recommending a movie, one of his favorites, to overcome all adversities which may occur by the end of the season. This is a film, 'Challenge to the Giants', where it has the vicissitudes of a football team scramble to win a title.

Motivational messages
'never give up', 'never go back' and 'never lose faith, "are the three messages of motivation for moving the film and the discourse of Kaka. No matter how difficult the challenge, no matter how hard the blow and too distant to see the target, the player wants to see their national peers is impossible in life.

This attitude is showing the Brazilian is very important for a team that is on the right path, leading at the end of the year and confirming that you have overcome the stumbling block at the Bernabeu against Barcelona. It was a disappointment to many of his peers, an unexpected defeat, but there he was, to boost morale.

Yesterday confirmed his desire to return to being one of the best players in the world. "My goal is to win titles with Real Madrid. You can return to perform at a high level during the four or five years," he told the magazine Sport Band.

Barcelona does not scare you, but recognizes that it is a very powerful rival: "Barça is not an unbeatable team. We have already won in the final of the Copa del Rey. It is the best team I've faced. They carry many Messi playing together for years and is a good time, with much confidence. "

Cristiano Ronaldo praised, which he said: "It is a very complete player. It is different from Messi, but is more comprehensive in that it goes well with the left leg, right and upside down."

Soufian Messi admires more than anyone

"I admire a lot because you're fighting every day for your goals," Messi told Soufian, the boy with no legs to which the Argentinian star admired for its touching story and the Catalan regional television broadcast next January 2.

"I have a special connection with him," Messi said when asked by the son of Moroccan Spanish. Laurin-syndrome accompanying Sandrow 11 years since I was born in Barcelona. After the name is a rare genetic disorder that can unite the fingers on one nail, result in defects in the legs and lead to amputation of both, which is what happened to Soufian, according to information collected by the World.

Messi's first encounter with the child was at the beginning of this year doing the unthinkable, running the ball, which went back and forth between the world's most exalted left foot and prosthesis young admirer. But that meeting will be followed by others, including the May 15, when Barcelona was awarded the league trophy after a 0-0 draw with Deportivo.

"We brought them together in the locker room area and there is incredible that they embrace and puts you goose bumps," says Xavi Torres, TV3 reporter ensures that Messi is touched to the core with the history of Soufian.

"When he saw a documentary piece shone eyes, swallowed hard," said the reporter from TV3 chain, which featured a private screening and his family to Argentina before the premiere of the documentary.

The dedication of the goal
in those games Messi made ​​a promise to Soufian, to dedicate a goal. The child loves the idea, but the two can not think of what gesture do to make it clear that this was dedicated to the goal. Raise your arms to heaven, as it almost always makes the Argentine was not worth. Until Soufian tells Messi: "When I scored the goal, touch your legs." Said and done, the gesture came on 17 September in Messi's first goal during the 8-0 Osasuna.

Children between Messi and everything is simple and complex at the same time as the question at a time Soufian makes his mother, Ouafae: "Messi says surprises me, but how is possible, if you admire Messi am I ".

The Madrid, a favorite for the league and the top scorer, the club for the Cup and the Champions

Well, Madrid is the favorite to win the league, with an average of 1.80 per euro bet, while Barcelona is paid to 1.90, despite Barca's victory in the classical past.

Since Guardiola takes the bench for three seasons, is the first time that whites are favorites, a trend that continues from the Mou Team won the lead a few weeks ago.

Classic before and just after the victory over Atletico Madrid's defeat and Barca in Getafe, White League were paid 1.60 and Barca, to 2.40 euros.

The trajectory of Madrid in the league before the match against Barca has built an image of security around the white team that is spread betting houses, where they play with money, but money is not a game. The 10 consecutive victories Mestalla Madrid-including white-and awakening to the defeat at the Bernabeu against Barca 2-6 at Sevilla with that keep alive the strength to face Real Madrid win the league title.

Where there is less doubt is the top scorer. Cristiano, who walks at a speed goalscoring record favorite is Leo Messi. The 20 goals of Luso in just 16 days can be more than 17 of Messi. So, to repeat CR7 top scorer award is paid to 1.57 League. That is the Flea who will gain the front of the table has a listing capocannonieri € 2.25 per euro bet.

Barca 'leads' Cup and Champions
League If the domain is white, in Europe and the tournament is the predominant color KO Barca light of the prices that are managed in the bookmakers. Of course, both are the two favorites for the two competitions.

Starting with the Cup, where last Friday's draw threw up a potential and probable cross-quarter between Barcelona and Madrid. The Catalans are the leading candidates to take the KO competition, with a share of 2.50. Close behind Madrid, to 3.50. The umpire is the Athletic (10), benefited by the side of the table which is located Marcelo Bielsa's team. Valencia (11), Espanyol (17) and Seville (19) are as follows.

Is a player who knows Mourinho, who had in his time at Inter and could get a good performance. The season is entering its decisive phase and it is possible no reinforcement in this position.
