Det kan være underholdende en gang imellem at se de voksne spillere tæve lidt på hinanden, men en u-13 kamp?! Det er altså lidt for overdrevet. Men de unge ser vel op til de voksne.

ja det er faktisk lidt vildt... men så´en er det vel når de 2 stotklubber i BAhia mødes....kan se historien også har ramt de argentinske medier...og de dertil hørende kommentater om Brasilien og brasilianere...

Ja, de er lidt skøre de brasilianere:-)

Apropos brasilianere, så vender den legendariske Alex hjem til Brasilien. Han skifter fra Fenerbahce til Coritiba.

he he her ihvertfald en brasilianer du skal holde øje med...

Dedé

By Christopher Atkins / 1 December 2011 /

Who
■Name: Anderson Vital da Silva
■Date of Birth: July 1, 1988
■Nationality: Brazilian
■Position: Centre Back
■Club: Vasco da Gama


Making his Name

Dedé played his youth football at Aliança in 2002, before later moving to his hometown club Volta Redonda, in 2005. The club, who play in the Rio de Janeiro State Championships only gave Dedé his first-team debut aged 20 in 2008, but in the three years since the progress has been phenomenal.

In 2009, having impressed in the Campeonato Carioca once more, Vasco came calling for the young defender and it is at the Rio de Janeiro giant that Dedé has made his name throughout Brazil. Progress has not always been smooth for the towering centre-back, indeed, there was a time when the occasionally clumsy defender was on the verge of leaving the club after failing to make the first-team in his debut campaign.

However, as so often happened, an injury crisis arose at the São Januario and Dedé was called upon to fill-in, from which point he has never looked back. Having managed just two league starts in 2009, the next season was to start the same way with only ten minutes of action in the State Championships. Yet, the injury crisis arose and by December of the same year, Dedé had started 36 of the club’s 38 league games and had been awarded the title of ‘Best Central Defender of the Brasileirão.’

Incredibly, 2011 was to bring more of the same from the centre-back, as his performances were taken to a new level by increased consistency and composure, as well as contributing nine goals to the team’s tally in attack. Vasco won the Copa do Brasil and as of late-November are still in with a real chance of both the League Championship and the Copa Sudamericana, with Dedé prominent throughout.

National team call-ups have followed the success that 2011 has brought, with the Vasco defender making his first two appearances for the Seleção in the August friendly double-header with Argentina, whilst in terms of awards, Dedé has been nominated as one of three candidates for ‘Brasileirão Player of the Season’, alongside Liédson and Neymar.

Style of Play

In many interviews, Dedé has confessed his admiration for former-Brazil defender Junior Baiano and has stated that he modelled his game on the 41-year-old Flamengo idol, still playing at Miami FC until just two years ago. Baiano was a much underrated defender for his time, but is now viewed with much greater affection by Brazilian football observers given the team of the 1990′s great success in international competitions. The similarities with Dedé are clear.

The Vasco man is tall and elegant, not blessed with blinding pace, but with an outstanding understanding of the game. For such a young defender, this ability to reading the game and anticipate the potential threat, combined with considerable composure when faced with highly talented opponents is remarkable – Dedé has twice been credited with nullifying Neymar. Over the past twelve to eighteen months, the development of these skills has been clear for all to see and now, it is rare that Dedé is at fault for moments of defensive panic.

Another feature of Dedé’s game is his impressive aerial ability. Standing at 6’4” (193cm) tall, he has an obvious height advantage over many opponents, but combined with an impressive leap and good technique, it can be a useful weapon and Dedé has already troubled the scorers nine times in 2011 alone.

There is a propensity for tall players to be clumsy and this was evident early in the Vasco man’s career. However, with the experience he has gained and his impressive all-round attributes, Dedé has recovered from these early set-backs to become a model of consistency.

What Others Say

“There are many annoying defenders out there, but the most annoying [to play against] is Dedé. He is the best defender in Brazil.” - Neymar, Nov 2011

The Future

A good friend of Neymar, exchanging daily messages with the Santos player, Dedé has followed suit in renewing his contract in Brazil until 2014. However, being a couple of years older than his esteemed Seleção colleague, the Vasco defender may feel the need to leave sooner, rather than later. That said, in the past few weeks the player known as ‘O Mito’, or ‘The Myth’, has expressed his desire to remain at the club for the long haul.

Dedé is without doubt the finest defender currently based in Brazil and the prospect of a partnership with Thiago Silva at the 2014 World Cup looks more realistic with each passing week. The two players would appear to have complimentary styles and while doubts remain over David Luiz’s naivety in particular, the Vasco man could propel himself into pole position.

European moves are without doubt a possibility, even as soon as January 2012, but Vasco will not give up their man without a fight and satisfactory financial compensation. Of all their assets, Diego Souza and Rômulo included, Dedé is without doubt the player who could command the biggest fee – given his age and talent.

Dedé has already turned down a proposal from Benfica in the summer of 2011, and is attracting great interest from Juventus in particular, with the Italian club hoping to strengthen their back-line in January. It is now without question that Dedé has the prerequisite talent and attitude to play for a top European team and lead the Seleção from the back, however as always, only time will tell if the progression continues.

Dværgen skal være far....

Lionel Messi a punto de ser padre

BUENOS AIRES -- La familia de Lionel Messi arribará en las próximas horas a España para acompañar al crack del Barcelona ante la inminente llegada de su primer hijo, anunció el rosarino a través de Facebook.

"Ya estoy en casa. Feliz y tranquilo por las dos victorias con la selección. Mañana viene toda mi familia desde Argentina, algo que también me pone muy feliz", escribió Lio en la red social, tras su regreso al país ibérico luego de participar con el combinado albiceleste en las eliminatorias sudamericanas del Mundial 2014.

Según indican algunas informaciones, la pareja de Messi, Antonella Rocuzzo, dará a luz este fin de semana.

Roccuzzo tendría planeado internarse el sábado en la clínica USP Dexeux para dar a luz a Thiago, el primer hijo de la pareja.

En cuanto a lo estrictamente deportivo, el Barcelona, puntero de la Liga española, junto al Atlético de Madrid, ambos con 19 puntos, enfrentará el próximo sábado a Deportivo La Coruña, en el estadio de Riazor, por la octava fecha del campeonato local.

Boca: ¿entran Fernández y Paredes?

BUENOS AIRES -- El entrenador de Boca, Julio César Falcioni, continúa en la búsqueda de variantes con miras al partido del próximo domingo frente a Estudiantes de La Plata y hoy probó con los juveniles Guillermo Fernández y Leandro Paredes como titulares.

De esta manera, Falcioni modificó nombres y esquema en relación con el equipo que dispuso en la práctica de ayer, pasando a jugar con un enlace y dos delanteros en lugar del 4-3-3, con los ingresos de Fernández por Diego Rivero y de Paredes por Lautaro Acosta.

Los elegidos esta mañana por el entrenador en la práctica que se desarrollaba en La Bombonera fueron: Agustín Orion; Clemente Rodríguez, Rolando Schiavi, Guillermo Burdisso, Juan Sánchez Miño; Fernández, Leandro Somoza, Walter Erviti; Paredes; Lucas Viatri y Santiago Silva.

De confirmar que estos serán quienes enfrenten a Estudiantes, Falcioni haría tres cambios en relación con el equipo que perdió con Belgrano de Córdoba: Clemente Rodríguez por Emiliano Albín, Fernández por Pablo Ledesma y Paredes por Cristian Chávez.

Det har Messi nu gjort godt. Hun er da godt nok en lækker tøs.

yup, han har styr på det også....


Carlos Ruíz stopper på landsholdet...

Guatemala´s Ruiz announces international retirement after WCQ loss

KANSAS CITY, Kansas -- With a heartbreaking loss to the United States on Tuesday night, Guatemala bid farewell to its chances of qualifying for a first-ever World Cup, as well as to one of its all-time great players.

After the 3-1 setback, forward Carlos Ruiz confirmed that this would be his last outing in national team colors.

"This was my last game," the Guatemala City-born striker told media following the match. "I cried what I needed to cry in the locker room; I prayed what I needed to pray. I thanked my teammates, and I want to thank the fans for the constant support, and my daughters for having patience with me when I´m not at home, because we have to be with the national team."

Ruiz´s retirement was far from unexpected in the land of the eternal spring. The forward had contemplated stepping aside from the national team on various occasions, including after last year´s Gold Cup in the United States, when he led Guatemala to the quarterfinals and a near upset of Mexico.

He returned to the national team late last year when head coach Ever Hugo Almeida requested one more World Cup qualifying cycle in the name of the entire country. The goleador complied, bringing additional joy to the country with six goals in seven matches, on the road to the Hexagonal, one on which the Chapines would fall agonizingly short, missing out on advancing through goal difference alone.

Any dearth of goals, however, could never be pinned on Ruiz. In 37 World Cup qualifiers spanning parts of three decades, the 33-year-old registered an amazing 30 goals.

The "little fish," as he´s known in Guatemala and, increasingly these days, around the region, says that it´s now time to give youth a chance in Guatemala.

"This was something already discussed, that this would be my last cycle with the national team," he said. "I got here thanks to God, but it´s time for the youth to follow up. They have to commit themselves to the national team."

In 104 total appearances with the Bicolor, Ruiz netted a whopping 55 times, setting a national record that could well stand for years. After emerging from the youth teams of local giant Municipal, "El Pescadito" played for clubs on three continents, with stints in Greece, the U.S., Paraguay and Mexico.

His greatest footballing dream, though, was to attend a World Cup with the Guatemalan national team. That hope went up in smoke once more at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park, even after Ruiz scored the first goal of the match in spectacular fashion, rounding American goalkeeper Tim Howard and depositing the ball in the net one last time in his nation´s colors.

"It´s a shame," said Ruiz of the elimination. "We tried. We played some great games, but we ended up on the outside. Those are things that happen in soccer."

In his long and distinguished career, Ruiz did participate in one World Cup -- the 2000 Futsal championship hosted by Guatemala, scoring a goal against Brazil. The forward now hopes to take an active role in the country´s federation, working on the sidelines to help Guatemala get to its first World Cup.
