Yeah, you could say Adriano’s first match for Sao Paolo went pretty well: He scored both his team’s goals in a 2-1 win over Guaratingueta, and generally made a nuisance of himself all over the pitch — in a good way, for once.

I just wrote this up for the front page, but it clearly needs to be discuss here, as well: Silvio Berlusoni claims Carlo Ancelotti told him that, if he keeps the form he’s been showing in training, Pato will “get 30 goals by June.” I mean … what?!
Do they want this kid to fail? […]

•Bayern Munich’s resident crotchety old man, Oliver Kahn, recently gave an interview in which he ripped the team’s unnamed new arrivals, saying they need to “learn that two or three good games aren’t enough” and, oh yeah, learn to speak freaking German while they’re at it. I’m sure Luca Toni went over and gave him […]

Ok, it’s official: I feel sorry for him now. Even while he’s busy over in Brazil, trying to sort himself out, the memories of how much Adriano sucks lately have lived on loud and clear in Italy. You know what’s coming, right? For the second year in a row, the big Brazilian is the proud […]

Because they’re all good people (despite the beatings and in-fighting) a bunch of Serie A teams have come together to support ACDM, a foundation that works to facilitate the integration of kids with Downs Syndrome into Italian society.
Being so famous all they have to do is wear and or/write their name on something to […]

•The Azzurrini played the second half with 10 men in the freezing cold rain, but still managed to pull out a 1-0 away win over the Faroe Islands. The baby Italians dominated the match but left it late, winning on an 80th minute goal by substitute Nicola Pozzi.

Good, Bad and Ugly for Inter
By: Martha | 3 Comments
The international weekend was a busy one for Inter, despite very little actually happening in Milan. Most of the action took place in South America where, you may have heard, a whole lot of Nerazzurri players ply their international trade.
In good news, Inter captain Javier Zanetti became the most-capped Argentine player of all time when […]
