Messi and Ronaldo have both made the extraordinary ordinary.
That first Messi goal from last night! :eek:
Did anyone see Alexis goal for Arsenal in the FA Cup final? He nearly broke the net!
I saw that. I'm happy for him as he was always a tireless worker and gave it his all (if a little short on quality at the top end)
He left this (likely to win a treble) team and went to Arsenal.. :uhoh:
but he at least got some joy in his season personally and for the team.
Always liked Alexis.
Chelsea 1 - Sydney FC 0
Loic Remy's bullet past Vedran Janjetović in the 20th minute was the only goal in the match and Chelsea found themselves late in the second half, with a team of kids trying to hold out another team of kids; all trying to prove themselves and break into the first XI.
The fact that Sydney had two goals disallowed is pretty good reason why even in a friendly, The Special One was positively fuming. I think that he expected the English Champions to run roughshod over a dinky little team from the colonies who only two days before had lost 1-0 to Spurs. Mourinho is a cranky man; even on holiday.
Brisbane Roar 3 - Villareal 0
Ouch... that's embarrassing.
Given the limited role Alexis had at Barca it's quite amusing that their fans think they actually can assess his quality! The difference for Alexis now is that the team is passing to him, rather than the anointed one. Of course he has far more opportunity to shine with the ball than without it. That Barcelona preferred Suarez to Sanchez says much about the balance between ambition and ethics / sportsmanship. I am personally relieved that Arsenal failed (if they were ever serious) in the attempt to sign Suarez.
