Starting lineup: Pinto, Alves, Puyol, Abidal, Fontas, Abidal, VicSan, Busquets, Xavi, Henry, Krkic, Messi

The U.S. tour continues, this time in Seattle vs the Sounders. Training has been going along and these matches are part of it. Again, we should see wholesale substitutions as everybody gets a runout (except for The Nose, [...]
Hey, whoa, real footy, a.k.a. Confederations Cup gets decided today

So, a funny thing happened on the way to the Spain Invitational. La Furia Roja lost to a scrappy United States side, courtesy of a most excellent assist from one Sergio Ramos, and some matador defense.

Ugh.
At any rate, here’s a place for those match comments but mostly, here’s a [...]
Whew! Football time again (sort of), a.k.a. Confederations Cup is on!

Yes, it’s big. Damn right it’s big. This picture of Xavi is big because he isn’t just our biggest player, but Spain’s.
It’s Confederations Cup time, the 8-team tourney that some are calling the Spanish Invitational. Brazil might have something to say about that, however.
The 8 sides are: Gp A: Spain, New Zealand, South Africa, [...]

Y’all know the drill. Lineups, bouquets (not Busquets), brickbats and various match-related natterings, all go here.
The pic is from our 3-1 win over Mallorca at the Camp Nou, with Captain Caveman doing what he does best.
Have fun!
