Ten most insane Christmas Premier League
In England, the rest is not accepted. Call Alexander Elagina – we remember the particularly hot winter confrontations of the past.
In England, it is customary to joke that they miss more at Christmas, because the defenders are too zealous during festive meals. True, nobody will blame these teams in 2012: just the attackers were so good. During the break, the score was only 1: 1: Demb Ba ricochet’s free-kick and Teo Walcott’s goal in the style of Thierry Henry. Second half … surprised. Twice, Arsenal stepped forward, and twice the magpies caught up. In the end, the “Gunners” have achieved their goal, scoring four goals in the last 17 minutes. Walcott committed a hat-trick, having recorded two assists passes. Continue reading
Mauro Camoranesi: the cruel fate of the half-forgotten titanium of Italian football
Mauro Camoranesi remains a mystery to the entire football world. He deserves to be remembered, and he has something to brag about for his rich career, but it just so happened that it was not accepted to praise him, and the Italian heroes of the time chose others.
Play Mauro in the Premier League, and about him would still sing songs.

In 2003, the leadership of the Tuttosport publication had the idea to establish an award for the best young footballer in Europe, which will be awarded annually. In order to win it, a player must meet only two basic criteria – not to be over 21 and compete in one of the top divisions of the European championships. Being talented and standing out from the background of your peers is a matter of course for winning the Golden Boy. Continue reading
Forgotten homeland
The loud statements that the Russian national team reached a new level after the World Cup died down – everything gradually returns to its roots, replete with hopelessness, humiliation and rolling the ball. Cherchesov still stubbornly ignores Chalov and Karavaev, causing dubious personalities in the person of Neustedter and Ari, and fans put to sleep by the fantastic World Cup awaken from their sleep and begin to do their favorite work again – throw stones at the national garden.
Breeding in the national team at zero, because citizenship is scattered right and left, they don’t really call up ready-made players, and then at press conferences they don’t know what to say. In the light of the recent (and far from the first) failures of the national team, we are compiling a list of players who were far from their historical homeland, but could really help in the New Year.

Before Gareth Bale was Freddy Eastwood. The main hope of Wales, which almost everyone has forgotten
In August 2007, the 23-year-old striker scored a goal during his debut in the Wales national team, thanks to which Bulgaria was replayed. The blow impressed: Eastwood demonstrated desire, technique and precision, which was not expected from a beginner.
“It was a special goal. Finally, we have a football player who knows how to play on the edge. We heard about his exploits, and immediately tried to call him into the national team of Wales, ”recalls coach John Toshack. Continue reading
