United FC got them in a position where they could take a decisive step towards an unique Promotion, achieving their goal of being the first Private Football Club reaching the UAE’s Top Division – ADNOC Pro League. A win would get them with 42 points, the 2nd position with a safer point advantage from the Read

Manchester United was able to proceed to the Semi-finals of Europa League after a dramatic Game against Olympique Lyon, at Old Trafford. What a roller coaster that was! What atmosphere!! After the 1st Leg, as I wrote here, my understanding was that United was capable of winning this Game and the 1st half was showing Read

To explain Paris Saint-Germain’s Game Model is a true challenge. Not only because of its complexity of movements and options avaliable, but also because it brings the old discussion of “what Beautiful Football really means?” Well, I don’t have the answer. No one has, in my opinion. Football is the greatest Sport in the World Read

Intense and emotional match was waiting, with Shabab Al Ahli getting the winner-goal at minute 91’! However, this match showed way more than that!

By now, it shouldn’t surprise us when United plays a solid performance. There’s a clear path being made, and one needs to be really naive, biased or, even, blind to miss it. This match presented some changes, with Maguire returning to the defensive line, along with Mazraoui and Yoro (what a player he’s becoming!), a Read

Al Nasr and Al Arabi faced each other for the U21’s League, with a final score of 1-1. This time, the match wasn’t as impressive as others previously. The score reflects, somehow, the Game on the field. Not many chances for scoring from both teams, a Game mainly battled in the midfield, not always well-played, Read
