I never thought I’d be typing the words
USA lost another final so soon… but then again, I never thought I’d be waking up today to see pics of Mexicans dancing like Michael Jackson either! Judging by the highlights below, I think it’s fair to also add that the pubescents playing for Mexico are awesome and are destined to become world beaters. I mean, just watch as they blend in to their surrounds until the US lets it’s guard down. Then they stealthily pass by US defenses and boom! make a run for it till they’re in the presence of other wacko dancing compadres… ah, it’s brilliant how life mimics football! (or vice-versa)

If results go their way, the Socceroos could be one of the first teams to qualify for South Africa [TWG] …but does qualifying so early hold as much significance as having it all come down to a gripping two match playoff, with penalties to decide the winner? [Watch this]… it doesn’t even come close!

Armani, D&G, Tom Ford… CR7!? C-Ron is set to open a third boutique store in Madrid, but if the “quality” of its website and choice of music are anything to go by… don’t expect too much from the clothing! [The Spoiler]

As if they don’t already have enough uncoordinated strikers in their squad (Pipo & Sheva)… Milan are preparing to swoop for Adebayor too! [Goal.com]

We’re down to the business end of the Copa America, and overnight, the favourites Argentina, ripped apart peru 4-0. Juan Roman Riquelme bagged 2, while Lionel Messi and Javier Mascherano completed the drubbing.And in the other quarter final, Mexico demolished Paraguay 6-0.

So it all boils down to an ’06 World Cup rematch, which was probably one of the best games played at last years World Cup and both teams are playing some very attractive football. Fingers crossed the match lives up to expectation and half way through we don’t get Argentines snorting tequila and Mexicans doing shots of coca… that should be left to the trained professionals.

Speaking of which:
