The Biggest Weekend in World Football [P+R]

[ARIAGA II]

I had not noticed this until minutes ago when it popped up on Facebook.

There are about 7 big games all over the world this weekend
Here they are

Liverpool vs Manchester United

Venue: Anfield
Date: 25.October.2009
Low Down:

A Liverpool FC spokesman said: "Any inflatable items will be confiscated at the point of search, whether inside or outside the stadium."

Basically Liverpool have been crap, and United are on a 11 game un-beaten run (all comps).
Torres & Gerrard are not 100% fit same goes with Fletcher and Rooney so it could be quite an interesting game (as if it never is ).
Should Giggs score he would get his 100th EPL goal. United fans are rumoured to be planning a '99 Red Balloons' chant for the game.


Le Classique (L'OM vs PSG)

Venue: Stade Vélodrome,Marseille
Date: 25.October.2009

The Low-Down: PSG is currently on a five game winless streak and Antoine Kombouaré could definetly lose his job if PSG give L'OM their 29th 'Le Classique' victory. OM on the other hand are in 5th place 3 pts behind league leaders Lyon. Makélélé will make the match for PSG but Hoarau is out while Mevlut Erding is a doubt.


Gre-nal: Internacional vs. Grêmio

Venue: Estádio Beira-Rio
Date: 25.October.2009

Low-Down: Both teams had players in the just ended WYC in Egypt (Giuliano & Douglas Costa) not sure if they'll play though

Superclásico: River Plate vs.Boca

Venue: El Monumental
Date: 25.October.2009

Low-Down: From what I've seen/read Boca should rape 'em.
Pretty cool game for Ortega/Palermo/Riquelme fans

Others:
El Clásico Nacional/El Clásico Mexicana:Club América vs C.D. Guadalajara

Moscow Massacre: CSKA Moscow vs FC Moscow

Istanbul Derby: Fenerbahçe vs Galatasaray


Note: I'll try fill out the stuff for most of them.

[Gene Reginato]

Sansão is on this weekend as well - SANTOS and SÃO PAULO

 

[Elber2k3]

On Saturday there was Gladbach - Cologne, might not be recognized that much out of Germany, as they weren't top teams in the past years, it is still a big match though.
The match included lighters and coins being thrown at Podolski and his post-match reaction to this was "I don't care about this", awesome guy.

 

[Chacarita Juniors]

Club América 1 - 0 C.D. Guadalajara
C.A. River Plate 1 - 1 C.A. Boca Juniors

A win and a tie, descent weekend I guess. 'Burrito' Ortega missed a PK...

 

[Arnau]
