Way to go guys England snatched a sure draw from the jaws of victory against Ghana in an international friendly.

Andy Carroll was told by Fabio Capello dude you gotta curb your drinking. Carroll heeded Capello’s warning and scored Three Lions only goal of the match in the 43^rd minute.

Asamoah Gyan ruined Carroll’s night by scoring the tying goal in the 90^th minute.

Gyan made the entire English “D” look like a bunch of schoolgirls trying to catch Bob Hayes.

This cat faked the Three Lions defenders out of their collective jocks.

I bet my friend Tophatal had a fit when he saw his mates do the choke city in the final moments.

Tophatal is right.

Capello needs to go.

The English “D” especially late in the match looked a step slow.

England also lacks a killer instinct.

The guys didn’t attack when they had the chance. They didn’t finish when Three Lions had the chance.

You saw the result of this folly.

Goal.

Lose your butt in process.

Let’s remember this England didn’t play their top players due having played on Saturday in European qualifying match against Wales.

The truth be told England didn’t look all that impressive against an inferior Welch side.

Chile defeated Colombia 2-0.

Uruguay jumped out to an early 3-1 lead and hung on for a 3-2 win over Ireland.

Uruguay was a semifinalist in the 2010 World Cup.

Ireland played the JV team while Uruguay was stunned by Estonia 1-0 last Friday in the snow.

Gunner and Flamenguista for life.

This is it from The De Futebol Zone.

Bruno saved Flamenguistas bacon. Flamengo barely got by Vasco 1-0.

Superman stopped Dodo twice from finding the back of the net on PK’s in the 36^th and 66^th minutes.

Dois pênaltis para o Vasco. Dodô na bola. E Bruno defendeu ambos. O atacante vascaíno saiu de campo vaiado e, em má fase, com um futuro nada animador na Colina. Mas o clássico para o outro camisa 10 teve um gosto diferente, de reconciliação. Adriano não jogou bem, tocou pouco na bola. Mas mostrou para o cruzmaltino como se faz. O Imperador não desperdiçou o pênalti mal marcado pelo árbitro Péricles Bassols a favor do Flamengo. E garantiu a vitória do Rubro-Negro por 1 a 0, neste domingo, no Maracanã, pela quarta rodada da Taça Rio, o segundo turno do Campeonato Carioca.

Yes, the basket counts, and a foul.

Adriano scored on a non-existent penalty in the 51^st minute.

Vinicius Pacheco took it to the rack. Pacheco and Vasco keeper Fernando Prass collided. It should have been no harm no foul. The ref said no way Jose.

This was the difference in the match.

Globo Esporte http://globoesporte.globo.com/  had this to say about the penalty that led to the only score of the match-  Aos quatro minutos, em um contra-ataque, Vinícius Pacheco arrancou com a bola e tocou na saída de Fernando Prass, que defendeu com os pés. Mas o árbitro Péricles Bassols marcou, de forma equivocada, pênalti no choque do goleiro vascaíno com o meia rubro-negro. Fernando Prass ficou inconformado com a marcação. Mas não teve jeito.

Adriano foi para a cobrança. E ao contrário de Dodô bateu bem. Goleiro para um lado, bola entrando carinhosamente no outro. Flamengo 1 a 0. Na comemoração, o Imperador tirou a camisa e mostrou uma mensagem: “Que Deus perdoe essas pessoas ruins”. O atacante recebeu cartão amarelo.

This was a huge win for Flamengo.

Yes, we played like crap but we picked up the all-important “W”.

UOL www.uol.com.br reported that this match between Gigante da Colina and Mengao was a showdown between Dodo and Adriano. UOL said Adriano was the winner. Flamengo e Vasco entraram em campo para tentar fazer com que seus principais jogadores – Adriano e Dodô, respectivamente, isolassem a má fase. Quem levou a melhor foi o Imperador que, mesmo sem ter uma atuação de encher os olhos, marcou de pênalti o gol do triunfo rubro-negro por 1 a 0 nesta chuvosa noite deste domingo no Maracanã, pelo Estadual do Rio. Pior para Dodô, que perdeu dois pênaltis, ampliou o momento turbulento e viu o goleiro flamenguista Bruno deixar o campo consagrado.

Liverpool took care of business at Anfield. The Reds demolished lowly Portsmouth 4-1. Fernando Torres hit the sweet spot twice. He nailed two winners in the 26^th and 77^th minutes.

This was a huge win for the Reds.

Liverpool is now squarely back in the race for the final Champions League spot.

Tottenham is in fourth place with 52 points in 29 matches. Liverpool is in fifth spot with 51 points in 30 games.

City is in sixth place with 50 points in 28 matches.  

This is it from the far side.

Mengao took care of business in Caracas, Venezuela on Wednesday night. Flamengo took it to the home side and won going away 3-1 in the Copa Libertadores.

Vagner Love continued his torrid scoring pace.

Love hit the daily double.

Rubro-Negro’s first goal was the result of a penalty. Leonardo Moura made a great run into the box. He fired a wicked pass to Petkovic. The ball nipped the hand of Caracas defender Romero.

Magic presto Mengao has a gift.

Love nailed the PK in the 35^th minute to give us a 1-0 lead.

Caracas tied this baby up in the 65^th minute.

Castellin whipped a pass to mate Alvaro. Alvaro flat out beat Bruno to level the match at one all.

Flamengo pressed the attack.

Mengao was rewarded in the 79^th minute.

Vagner Love took it straight to the rack. He fired a rocket that hit the crossbar. The shot went ker plunk into the back of the net.

Mengao was up 2-1.

Rubro-Negro put this puppy away in the 93^rd minute.

Kleberson stole the ball in the Caracas end of the pitch. He whipped a pass to Rodrigo Alvirn.

Alvirn nailed this gimmie to put Caracas out of their misery.

We now are atop Group 8 with six points.

Yes, this was a much-needed win for Mengao in Caracas’s house.

Mengao entered this match with a lot of crazy stuff happening. Adriano had to miss this match because he and his fiancé are fighting.

Besides that, The Emperor is out of shape.

UOL www.uol.com.br had this to say- O Flamengo entrou em campo nesta quarta-feira, contra o Caracas, na Venezuela, sabendo que somente uma vitória faria com que a crise na Gávea fosse amenizada após a polêmica em torno de Adriano na última semana. Mesmo pressionado e com um a menos durante boa parte do segundo tempo, o time se superou e, sob a batuta de Vagner Love, autor de dois gols, venceu mais uma sem o Imperador, desta vez por 3 a 1.

Without Adriano head man Andrade used Love as his lone striker. Petkovic was moved into the midfield. Sem o astro, o técnico Andrade optou por deixar apenas Vagner Love no ataque e voltou a escalar Petkovic como titular. Desde o Fla-Flu do dia 31 de janeiro, o qual foi substituído no intervalo e abandonou o estádio, o sérvio não iniciava um jogo.

Mengao defender Toro was sent to the sin bin for rough play in the 53^rd minute. This could have cost Mengao the match but the guys sucked it up and powered through being a man down to take the win.

Globo Esporte http://globoesporte.globo.com/ had this to say- O Flamengo conseguiu uma vitória heroica sobre o Caracas, nesta quarta-feira, na Venezuela, pela Taça Libertadores, que serviu para afastar a crise do “caso Chatuba”, que tomou conta da Gávea nos últimos dias. Mesmo sem Adriano, o time venceu por 3 a 1, e o segundo tempo foi emocionante. O Rubro-Negro teve um jogador a menos desde os minutos iniciais – Toró recebeu o cartão vermelho. Vagner Love fez dois gols, e Rodrigo Alvim, o terceiro. Castellín marcou o da equipe da casa.

Two bad things happened to Mengao. First Willams was lost due to an injury and then Toro was sent off for his second yellow card. The second card was an ugly foul. The ref had to send him bye-bye.

A partir daí, dois fatos inesperados. O primeiro aconteceu quando Fernando sentiu um problema muscular e teve de deixar o campo. Quando o Flamengo estava com um a menos, Gabriel Cichero deu um drible entre as pernas de Toró, que fez falta feia, recebeu o segundo amarelo e foi expulso. Em dois minutos, Andrade ficou sem seus dois volantes de marcação. O jeito foi improvisar Rodrigo Alvim, que substituiu Fernando.

Not a pretty win but us Flamengistas will take it.
