What if we were to listen to Stefano Pioli?

For today's article I am going to ask you one simple thing, be imaginative. Yes, I know, it is Monday but I promise you it will be worth it. Football has done and continues to do a lot of damage in society. You see, not even thirty seconds have passed, and you are already starting …

Deceiving absences at the Olympics

Is it possible to make an illusion into something mundane? A child's dream turned into an adult's ordeal. That is the appearance with which the Tokyo Olympics will open tomorrow, although it does not necessarily equate with reality. A tournament of such impact, notoriety and history is idyllic for any athlete. However, like any great …

The decline of Italian referees

Anyone who has ever played a video game related to the sport recognizes this face. Pierluigi Collina was voted the best referee in history at the end of the year.

Conference League: is it really necessary?

From the creators of the European Super League comes the Conference League. Sorry to be so forward, but what a stupidity. A priori it is very nice to sell inclusion in the eyes of the world. However, beyond reaching players with less media coverage, the only interest generated by this competition is economic and for …

Y tú, ¿cómo definirías El Clásico?
Opposites attract. In a sport dominated by emotions, sometimes their absence is the only way to govern.
When two elephants fight, it is the grass that suffers (African proverb).
Chills, cramps and hot flashes. Nerves at the surface of the skin. The wait is over and the ball is rolling again on the pitch, and with it the activity of this rational fan returns.
Let's abandon any banal introduction that serves to fill lines in this article. Real Madrid's continuous exploits this season in European competition are both unmatched and unimaginable. Any praise seems minuscule in the face of such overcoming displays. However, could they have been predicted?
We are used to praise silence when only noise is capable of swaying our convictions. We are in need of pause, surviving the hunt for an ultimatum, while only the rush inherent in walking over the wire enables us to show who we truly are.
