Is Mexico on the right track?

The Mexican National Team just won their first game in the World Cup qualifying. They beat Costa Rica 2-0 in Mexico citythanks to goals coming from Omar Bravo and Pavel Pardo. This game showed that little by little Mexico is fighting to be at the level they are used to being on. This win helped their coach Eriksson stay for at least another game. Mexico has to win Wednesday against Honduras to shown they are still one of the big teams in the CONCACAF. This game will show this because Mexico has trouble winning away games and with all the losses Mexico has had against Honduras, this will show if Mexico is ready for the World Cup or will they miss the 2010 World Cup and show that they're in a crisis.

The strongest league is...








The English league has shown that the Italian league is not on the same level as them. In all English clubs vs. Italian clubs, all the Italian teams were left out the tournament. Chelsea beat Juventus, Manchester United beat Inter de Milan, and Arsenal beat Roma. The biggest game between these leagues was Manchester vs. Inter de Milan because they both are the reigning champions and are both leaders of their leagues. The English league is getting stronger each year because now all the players realize that the Premier is the place to be. Out of the 8 teams in the quarter finals 4 are from England, 2 from Spain, 1 from Germany, and 1 from Portugal. To me it looks like we are going to have another English final.

No need for this


Chelsea's strong English defender was taken to jail over night because he was drunk and disorderly conduct. Even though it was an overnight thing it still shows that the clubs these player's play for should keep them on a shorter leash. Many player's in the Premier League have been seen getting drunk and this should stop because children see their idols being put into the back of their cars unable to walk on their own two feet and children do what they see people they look up to do. The teams are trying to do something by fining them or not including them in games, but they pay them so much that it really doesn't worry them.

England is superior in the first leg

In the biggest match of the champions league so far it seems that Inter from Italy has the advantage over Manchester United from England. This champions league puts two of the top leagues facing each other in three distinct matches: Manchester United vs. Inter de Milan, Arsenal vs. Roma, and Chelsea vs. Juventus. The first leg of all these matches have been played and it looks like it is an advantage for England with two of their teams winning( Arsenal 1-0 Roma, Chelsea 1-0 Juventus) and one tie (Manchester United 0-0 Inter de Milan, advantage Inter). Even though it seems Inter has the advantage because they played in Italy first, they really don't because they have to play in the toughest place Old Trafford. The next leg will be played March 10th and 11th after these two days one league can say, they are the best.

Can no one stop him?




The great Raul has just made history in one of the biggest teams in all of Europe. He became the one player to make the most goals ever for the team known as Real Madrid. He has made 309 goals since he started his soccer career. He beat a good player named Alfredo Di Stefano. Many players around the world congratulated him after he broke the record. I think this is the biggest news in all of the world of soccer. The main reason for my thought is because he is the reason my favorite number is 7. I don't like Real Madrid, but he is one of my favorite players in all of soccer.

Mexico has lost yet again to the U.S.A. This makes 11 years that Mexico hasn't beaten the U.S.A. All the U.S.A. fans must feel so happy that they found the key to beating a struggling Mexican National Team. Just don't get used to it because the next game that they face each other will be played in the Mighty Estadio Azteca. This is bad for the United States because the U.S. has never beaten Mexico when they play each other in Mexico. The worst thing about this match was that Rafael Marquez the Captain of Mexico received a red card for a horrible challenge against the American goalie. Also, Nery Castillo left the game early because of an injury on the 33rd minute.

History is made


Rafael "The Raging Bull" Nadal has done it again for a third final he has met Federer. He beat "The King of the Court" Roger Federer yet again. This time he left Federer weeping on the side wishing that he could get that 14th Grand Slam title that would have helped him tie Pete Sampras record and helped Federer tie for the man with the most Grand Slam titles in the history of tennis. Nadal made history by becoming the first Spaniard to win the Australian Open. This leaves me feeling sad and happy. It leaves me feeling sad because I am a Roger Federer fan and I would have been so happy to see him be up on the top with a legend like Sampras. I am happy because I am half Spanish so it is great to see Nadal do these incredible things at such a young age.
