Manchester City upset Chelsea...Barcelona to Face Málaga

Today, Manchester City came through with a huge upset over number 1 Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. In a game that looked as if Chelsea could easily get the win at home, Tevez and his teammates clearly showed a different side of their team; they cause Chelsea to get two red cards and were able to win by 4-2. So, what does this mean for Chelsea and more importantly for Manchester City? First off, Chelsea is now certainly going to have a tougher week a practice however, it will be interesting to see how they respond in their next game against Stoke City in the FA Cup since they clearly don't have much momentum. Terry and Cole will have to be strong in carrying their squad. For Manchester City though, this couldn't have been a better time to get a huge win. With their next game against Sunderland (due to their game against Tottenham being postponed), 2 wins in a row will certainly change the team morale and help them move up in the league to possibly 3rd if things to get well for Arsenal this week.

In Spain, Barcelona will be facing 12th place Málaga in an important game. If Barcelona does anything less than a win, Real Madrid could move into first place if they get a win over 19th place Tenerife. To me, it seems quite clear that Barcelona will get the win however after watching what happened to Chelsea today, who knows. This will certainly be a game to watch.

The Blues defeat the Red Devils

As we all know, every match up between Manchester United and Chelsea is never any easy walk in the park. The intensity, tempo, and urgency will always be there. There is no doubt that if you are in England, it's one game for which you know if you are going to attend, your tickets are actually cheap for what an experience one can achieve.
In this November game, unfortunately Manchester United would not be the victors. Instead, at Stamford Bridge, captain John Terry gave his side the game winner to put his squad clear in first by five points over Ferguson's side. However, what makes this game even more interesting is Ferguson's accusations against, yet again, a ref. As a player myself, I can totally understand the coach being extremely frustrated with the ref. However, it gets to a point where every time you lose and you blame the ref people don't start losing faith in the ref's but rather than you. Even as a Manchester United fan I am going to say I am getting a bit annoyed with Ferguson's complaining. Why can't he just accept that it's the players and coaches that win and lose games, not refs. Let's just hope that in the future things will pan out much better for Manchester United.

2 Fabulous UEFA Games

In the past 3 days, 4 teams have played 2 amazing games. In the first game, (Arsenal vs. Real Madrid) Henry scored a goal in the second half giving Arsenal an amzing win and making Real Madrid feel like nothing. Some may say that Arsenal are terrible but, if we really think about it, they are the best. They play true soccer, pass and move. They also ever give up, always playing 110% to the end. Thus, they beat Real Madrid!


As for Barcelona vs. Chelsea, there (surprisingly) 2 own goals. The first commited by Barcelona's Motta and Chelsea's Terry. Not only did Chelsea score a own goal, they also recieved a red card on behalf of Del Horno in the first half and,Eto'o helped Barcelona win the game 2-1 withan amzing header. Chelsea's manager Mourinho also blames their lose on the fact that the ref awarded the red card to Del Horno.
