Streaming Spain-Portugal at work. Awesome!

rofl, note to Portugual...

 

Let the best player on your team, and quite probably the best goal scorer in all of Europe, take a penalty kick when the game is on the line. Well done - no wonder you've never won a major tournament.

PKs suck, that is all.

[EbylHusker]

They're far better than Golden Goal. That sh#t is just hilariously bad.

Suck it, Balotelli. Take your medicine like a man instead of running off the field like the whiny little bitch you are.

Mourinho's 2 Match Ban For Eye-Poking Vilanova Lifted

 

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1123815/real-madrid-coach-jose-mourinho-sees-eye-poke-suspension-lifted?cc=5901

 

"The two-match ban handed to Real Madrid head coach Jose Mourinho for poking Barcelona's Tito Vilanova in the eye has been lifted. Mourinho was caught on camera poking the eye of Vilanova, Barcelona's assistant coach at the time, after the final whistle in Barca's 5-4 aggregate win over Real in the Spanish Super Cup last August. The Portuguese was ultimately handed a two-match suspension while Vilanova, now the Barca manager, was given a one-match ban for his part in the fracas...However, as part of an amnesty by the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), the bans have been overturned - meaning the two coaches will be on the touchline when Madrid meet Barcelona in the two-legged Spanish Super Cup next month."
