Click the video above for a look at how Shamrock Rovers are preparing for the visit of Real Madrid — a match the entire soccer word will be keeping an eye on, with Cristiano Ronaldo set to make his debut for the Spanish club.

Interesting line about Real’s continued interest in Franck Ribery. Do they really need him still. Raul seems to suggest they’d still like him…

One comment so far

MEXICO BEATS USA IN GOLD CUP 2009,BY KNOCKOUT.

Mexico 5 USA 0

Let it be a lesson for the USA national team coach, when you play a final for the Gold cup, you better bring your best players or face destroying with your feet what you created with your hands. Reaching the final of the Confederations cup against Brazil was a great accomplishment and even loosing the final was not a negative for their reputation or soccer world rankings, in fact that game alone created a great deal of respect and interest for American players among the great European teams.

The loss against Mexico, for the Gold cup final was by knockout. Mexico played a lot better, had better coaching more hearth, infinitely more desire and vastly superior talent on the field. The USA team had the biggest players in physical stature with a dwarf soccer IQ, no creativity and one dimensional. Highly defensive, highly inoffensive ,to win titles you need creative minds who create offensive plays that culminate in goals, against Mexico coach Bradley planted a team of robots with no programming for free creative flow, when Mexico took the lead their computer crashed.!Rage against the machine!
