Love of Soccer

People who do not follow soccer cannot understand those who live for playing, watching it and cheer for favorite Club (which cannot be compared with anything in the world for them) and take the love of soccer as a completely irrational.

The first reinforcement has already arrived in German port, and it is a Napoli’s midfielder Valon Behrami. The club has paid four and a half million for his service. They wish also to include Nicolai Müller from Mainz and Matthias Ostrzolek from Augsburg.

Fortuna on the side of the Brazilians, Chileans go home

Brazil’s soccer team advanced to the quarterfinals of the World Cup, as in Belo Horizonte defeated Chile after penalties 3-2.

Gods and goalkeeper Julio Cesar were to Brazil! Host of World Cup managed to beat Chile after a penalty shootout 1-1 (1-1) – 3-2 and reach the quarterfinals, but in the 120 minutes of the battle was outplayed and that Sampaolo’s troopers had a little bit of luck  all the country would cry as in 1950.  But the goal posts saved the penalty hero series Julio Caesar (two saves) in the 120th minute when Pinilla wailed, but in the fifth series too, when the unfortunate Hara missed and sent home his team. Brazil has shown that there is no goalscorers, that midfield besides Oscar has no creation, and that Neymar can be beaten and tamed. The quarterfinals will be without Luis Gustavo, who is jaundiced.

The shotting was in all directions in the first part, everything was lighting of challenge, opportunity, even two goals were achieved for real 1:1. When the two teams know well such as Brazil and Chile, then winning tactics is built on his opponent’s weaknesses. Selector of the World Cup’s host Felipe Scolari in the starting lineup introduced Fernandinho to “drown” Vidal and by winning the ball in the middle to build a fast action over Neymar, Oscar and Hulk. On the other hand a similar idea had Jorge Sampaoli, but attacked the last line of defense, with his midfielders and defenders are by all means to stop the main shaft of Brasil – Neymar and Oscar.

 After two falls in both boxes, that are just laughed English former policeman Howard Webb, Brazilians led after a corner. Neymar’s pass defender Thiago Silva conducted at the near post, where in front of David Luis the ball has been sent into his own net by the stopper Hara, but the goal FIFA official attributed the new cleat PSG. Increased press to the last line brought Chile tie. Hulk has a short back pass to Marcel, Vargas was first forwarded Alexis Sanchez, and this struck a dozen meters’m cornered. As has repeatedly been on the grass, Neymar was becoming increasingly dangerous. Oskar took control of the game, started to fill the balls Neymar and Fred, a bomb from 20 meters sent by Danny Alves, but it all ended in sighs. Chile was responding as well, Arturo Vidal five meters from Julio Caesar attempted to receive the ball instead of the first forward and Aranguiz waited too long and was blocked.

School lesson “How to neutralize Brazil” Chileans presented later in the game for free. High pressing, a lot of running, frequent changes of party are totally numb the Brazilians, who were only able to threaten by some long passing in 55th minute, when the stadium exploded as the Hulk put the ball in the net. But Zenit’s striker instead of celebrating was booked becasue Oscar’s pass, according to Webb, settled down with his hand, not his shoulder. Cesar saved Brazil after shooting Aranguiz, but Chile had the strength to finish, as well as to hold the end of the press. Whistles from the stands did not initiate Brazil, but Hulk did with the two actions. He set a ball to Zhou, who disgraced missing the entire goal at five feet, and in the final match Zenit’s striker crossed three players, but the Bravo show why Barcelona bought him.
