Actually, Masche was the captain of Argentina during Maradona's time. Sabella came along and gave Messi the captaincy instead. Regardless of who's wearing the armband now, people say that Masche is the true leader in the dressing room, the motivator, the glue that sticks the team together and Messi is the captain only in name.

Nelson Valdez was a former BvB player! Their other goalscorer, Barrios, also was a BvB player :')

So happy for the England girls! I really hope they go far this WWC. I agree about Brazil's 5 stars. None of the other countries have the men's stars on the badges.

I'm not sure who from France got the red card but it wasn't Giroud. He got subbed off at half-time for Nabil.

I can't find anything about a red card in Albania-France.
Well there are just as many controversies in the women's game than the men's game. But that handball should have been a pen.
France created a bunch of chances but couldn't convert. Women will never really be able to beat men at football, they are not fast or strong enough but I don't think that that's a problem. For me the tactics on the pitch look the same.

Oops Argentina. That's not an ideal start. This is supposed to be the tournament where Messi finally leads the senior side to a triumph, I think?

Line-up for the semis of the U20 WC: Senegal beat Uzbekistan 1-0, Mali, Brazil and Serbia all went through on penalties.

I didn't see anything about a red card either.

Giroud is already getting criticism in the newspaper for why France lost... he played half the game. And wasn't he injured in the last game? I can't believe they let him play at all.

womp womp. Now he's going to get criticized for putting more into Barca than into Argentina NT (as usual). But I'm cheering for Chile anyway. Not only because Alexis, but home country + never won Copa America before. They'd all be so happy.

lol, i think there'd be blood if they didn't get at least 3 goals against Gibraltar. I remember the German home crowd was unhappy they scored only 3 or 4 against them last year

Looks like it's farewell, Weidenfeller. Funny how Roman will be replaced by Roman.

Nice!

Weidenfeller had a good match last night though, but it was against mostly amateurs. Still, that's his last season anyway? Farewell indeed.

Langerak though, what's he going to do... hmh
