Ronaldo has disapproved Neymar’s actions that led to his dismissal in a recent Copa America Match

Posted on by index

Brazil soccer legend Ronaldo has disapproved Neymar’s actions that led to his dismissal in a recent Copa America match against Colombia.

Brazil lost the match 1-0 and there were a lot of tempers during the match. Neymar is widely recognised as the best player at the disposal of Brazil. His absence is widely seen as the reason for the team failing to win the World Cup 2014, but the Barcelona superstar was determined to end the misery by leading his team to Copa America success. This did not turn out to be the case after his dismissal was further worsened by a four match suspension by the Copa America committee.

Neymar showed violent behaviour that led to a dismissal with a straight red card. His actions were later deemed as overly aggressive and this later led to the ban. Ronaldo has appeared in several games for Brazil during his stellar career. He has almost single-handedly helped the national team win major titles like the World Cup. Neymar, meanwhile, has not lifted such a major tournament with the national team. Even though Ronaldo acknowledges that the Barcelona player is an immense talent, his actions while wearing the Brazil shirt is deemed unacceptable by any standards. (more…)

GheorgeHagi was considered to be one of the best players in the world between the years of 1980 and 1990. Hagi is even hailed to be the best Romanian player ever and now his 16 year old son is following his footsteps.

IanisHagi the son of GheorgeHagi and at the young age of 16, he is already being viewed as a promising figure who can turn into one of the greats just how his father is.

Ianis has been signed by the Italian side Fiorentina as this was confirmed by the former player of Fiorentina, Adrian Mutu.

Adrian Mutu confirmed the signing of IanisHagi as he said: ‘“Hopefully he is the future of Fiorentina. He has all the right qualities; hopefully he can do even better than I did. I spoke to his father and told him that they have made the right choice. In Florence they have everything they need to grow at the rate they should. Hopefully he’ll soon be playing in the Serie A, but it depends on him and working hard enough to be able to play in this league.” (more…)

Inter Milan have not won in the last seven matches

Inter Milan have not won in the last seven matches, but manager Roberto Mancini has promised a positive attitude from the players when they take to the pitch against Hellas Verona.

This match is a great opportunity for Inter to register their first win in the league after a month. Their opposition are struggling with the prospect of relegation with only 11 points separating them from the drop zone. They have been in decent run of form in recent weeks and the 2-0 win over Napoli is a perfect indicator of it. Despite this, Mancini is confident that his players will be able to perform in this difficult away match.

Mancini has come under pressure due to the club failing to hit the heights as he had promised upon taking over from Walter Mazzarri. There has been no improvement in results and it looks almost certain that the club will be finishing outside the top 10 if they continue on this poor run of form. Mancini has asked for more patience from the supporters and the club, but he may not get that patience for long if results do not improve. The fact that rivals AC Milan have recently overtaken them in the table and hold a three-point advantage makes things worse for Mancini. (more…)

Posted on by index

Former Tottenham midfielder Gica Popescu has been sentenced to prison for three years for tax evasion and laundering of money.

His former team mate Gheorghe Hagi has said that he would not attend Romania’s international matches in person. He has said that he had no intentions or desires to go and watch the matches of the national team while his former team mate Gica Popescu was behind bars. Gheorghe is a midfielder who was at its best at the world cup of 1994 and also told the local media that the local football authorities had not doing anything much considerable to save and help the former captain of Romania. Not watching the international matches in solidarity is a form of his protest.

Some of the Romanian team members along with Gheorghe had gone to pay a visit to Gica. They wanted to express their best wishes and support on his birthday. Gica has been sentenced in prison for a term of three years and a month. As told by a former defender for Romania, Daniel Prodan, he was very happy to see them and know that they were there for him. It was a way of showing and telling him that he has not been forgotten and that they were all there right beside him. Gica had a very flourishing career. He had been named the player of the year in Romania six times. It is believed that soon he was also going to become the president of the domestic football federation. He was among some of the favorites. It has come to the news that Gica along with seven more people were connected to the game that was guilty of damaging the state. It was almost a sum of 1.7m Euros in unpaid taxes and hand in hand several clubs had lost 10m Euros. This was because the officials had registered false sums of money for the transfers of almost 12 players between the time period of 1999 and 2005.
