Athletico Madrid Win La Liga 2013-14

Finally a team other than Barcelona or Real Madrid has won the Spanish title. It has been almost a decade since another team has won. The credit should certainly go to Athletico Madrid Manager Diego Simeone who guided his team to the La Liga title after putting off Barcelona in the final game of the league. Barcelona needed to beat Athletico Madrid to snatch the league from Athletico Madrid's hand at the end of the season.

It was a tight title race this season for the Spanish League with the usual Barcelona and Real Madrid fighting out along with the ever growing Athletico Madrid side which has been really making big strides under
the management of Diego Simeone. Even after loosing their best player Radamel Falcao to Monaco they have managed to better their league position this season with Diego Costa being a relevation scoring goals for fun. He was under shadow of Radamel Falcao last season and after Falcao's departure to Monaco Costa has been exceptional. His goal scoring exploits have alerted top clubs with Chelsea being the front runners to sign him.

Manchester City rally to deny Liverpool a EPL title

Manchester City being involved in all the competitions this season they had 3 games in hand over the other top teams going into the final few round of games for the EPL. They won the League cup and lost in the later stages of the FA cup. After loosing the big six pointer against Liverpool they had to win all the remaining games to win the league which looked unlikely as Liverpool were on a roll and had a good momentum and it was in Liverpools own hands.

But Liverpool did get outsmarted by "The Happy One" ie Jose Mourinho who was called "The Special One" before and since then Liverpool could not hold their nerves as they lost points until the final day of the league.
They were a team who lost their mojo as their captain Steven Gerrard's slip cost them the title.
They looked more vulnerable and the other teams got the confidence to hold Liverpool from playing their free flowing game that they did so well since the start of the year.

Below is the Lyrics to the song 'Royals' :-

I've never seen a diamond in the flesh
I cut my teeth on wedding rings in the movies
And I'm not proud of my address,
In a torn-up town, no postcode envy

But every song's like gold teeth, grey goose, tripping in the bathroom
Blood stains, ball gowns, trashing the hotel room,
We don't care, we're driving Cadillacs in our dreams.
But everybody's like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
Jet planes, islands, tigers on a gold leash.
We don't care, we aren't caught up in your love affair.

Manchester United Versus Arsenal at Old Trafford on 10th November 2013

Arsenal have been doing really well since they lost in their opening league game against Aston Villa.
They now face another test when they travel to Old Trafford to meet the reigning Champions of England Manchester United who themselves have been playing really bad under new manager David Moyes.
Manchester United in recent seasons have convincingly defeated Arsenal on a regular basis in the English Premier League with the 8-1 trashing still lurking in the 2011 season.But this time around Arsenal look like favorites to win as they lead in the EPL with 5 points at the top. They recently have impressed this season by defeating the inform team Liverpool who have a potent strike force of Suarez and Sturrigde(SAS) and they have defeated Borussia Dortmund at their home in the Champions League just a few days ago.

Super Sunday in EPL Manchester United vs Liverpool and Arsenal vs Spurs

Its the third weekend since the Barclays Premier League started and we have had one big game Manchester United versus Chelsea which was disappointing. But this weekend it is a Super Duper Sunday as two high profile matches or we can say derbies are there. Liverpool face their bitter rivals Manchester United at Enfield Stadium where this tie is considered the El-Clasico of EPL. The other match of the day is the north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspurs.

Bayern Munich win UEFA Super Cup 2013 by defeating Chelsea

Bayern Munich defeated Chelsea to take revenge for their defeat in the 2011-12 Champions League Final. This was a game which was more about the coaches going head to head rather than the teams with Pep Guardiola managing Bayern Munich and Jose Mourinho managing Chelsea. They resumed their rivalry from their days of being the managers of Sains top two rivals Barcelona and Real Madrid. The games versus the top two Spanish teams is known as the El Clasico and we did see a El-Clasico match when Bayern Munich and Chelsea played in the Super cup.

This was the first time that the Super Cup was played in Prague rather than the usual venue in Monaco. This was a one of the better Super Cups as two European Heavy weights were going each other. Usually one team is a considerably less popular team than the other as the second tier European competition ie Europa League is less glamourous and big teams dont take much interest in this competition as compared to the first tier Champions League.

Champions League Groups for season 2013-14

The much awaited Champions League group draw was held in Monaco and Arsenal are the side which had the worst draw as they were drawn in the group of death. Arsenal who qualified after going through an extra qualifier to get to the groups stages will be very unhappy as they have been drawn with last years finalized Borussia Dortmund and upcoming Napoli who have made some good signings after selling their prized asset Edison Cavani. They also play France's Marseille who arent bad either. The other english teams have a easier draw as Chelsea play Germany's Schalke , Switzerland's Basel and Steaua Bucharest. Chelsea and Schalke are favorites to go through to the next round.


Group A: Manchester United, Shakhtar Donetsk, Bayer Leverkusen, Real Sociedad.

Group B: Real Madrid, Juventus, Galatasaray, FC Copenhagen.

Group C: PSG, Benfica, Olympiakos, Anderlecht.

Group D: Bayern Munich, CSKA Moscow, Manchester City, FC Viktoria Plzen.

Champions League group draw tonight for 2013-14

Tonight the Champions League draw will be held in Monaco where 32 European teams will be divided into 8 groups with each group consisting of four teams. The teams are seeded according to performance in all European competitions over a five-year period, where the best teams go in the first pot and the worst seeded going to the fourth pot.

 Arsenal as always had to go through a qualifier to reach the group stages, but they have qualified for the champions league group stages for the 16th consecutive time. They had to play Fenebache from Turkey over two legs and they won the tie comfortably, but the qualifier was of no use as Fenebache were suspended from Europe after being found guilty of match fixing. Similarly Celtic the Scottish champions had to play two qualifier ties to get to the group stages and they managed a aggregate 3-2 win from the skins of their teeth defeating Shakhtar Karangandy of Kazakhstan.

Barclays English Premier League has finally started but in Hindi in India

Barclays English Premier League has started finally on 17th August. I was so excited and happy that finally the wait is over. As i stay in India i have been getting ads that we will be getting the commentary in our language ie Hindi. It looks like the matches will be only on the Star network instead of ESPN and Star Sports. I was angry and frustrated to hear that hindi commentary will be there as i hate to listen to hindi commentary. I have heard hindi commentary for cricket matches and i always change to english commentary as quickly as i realize its hindi commentary.

And another big jolt that i got was that they did not telecast the first match of the League Liverpool versus Stoke.

Manchester United players to get free Chevrolet cars

Manchester United players to get free Chevrolet cars. Its another perk of being a Manchester United player other than playing for the Britain's top and one of the worlds top soccer team.

This is a good way to give your brand a huge exposure other than just putting your brand name on the team training kits. The American car maker Chevrolet have a  £357 million deal with Manchester United where the players will wear the Chevrolet branded jerseys starting from the 2014-15 season. Chevrolet is the Official Automotive Partner of Manchester United.

But there is a big IF put in by the Chevrolet deal if the players want a free Chevrolet ride!!

Chelsea snatch the Europa League from Benifica after scoring at the death

Chelsea won the Europa League after Branislav Ivanovic scored in the 93rd minute of an absorbing tie.
Chelsea followed the Champions League final win last year with another European title last night.

Benifica started brightly and were just all over Chelsea and Chelsea were just about able to defend in the final third and keep the score to 0-0. Benifica were quick with their passing and movement and the Chelsea midfield were struggling to cope with the movement of the Benifica players.
Especially David Luiz was very poor as he could not keep hold of the ball and when ever Benifica had the ball he was like a headless chicken running on the pitch.
That put a lot pressure on Frank Lampard in the middle of the midfield. Benifica were brilliant in the passing but they were not shooting when they could have a sight at the goal but they played as if they wanted to pass the ball in the goal.
