The Spoiler

A brilliant goal from yesterday’s action


You’ve probably already seen Fran Merida’s cracker, and feel free to step this way and dribble at Valeri Bojinov’s brilliant goal for Parma last night.

But thespoiler’s favourite came in the Asian Champions League.Saudi side Al-Ittihad beat Nagoya Grampus Eight 6-2 in the first leg of their semi-final. and were already two ahead in the second leg, before Keita Sugimoto scored this wonder goal. It was however, to prove a mere consolation, and Ittihad will now meet Korean side Pohang Steelers in the final.

The Spoiler’s Man City XI


No room for Ireland, Hamann, Bojinov, Kompany, Benjani, Ben Haim, um, Mills

Man City XI

Can anyone remember the days when Arsenal were in the Big Four and Man City were just a bunch of also-rans? Those were great times - feels just like yesterday doesn’t it?

But now look at them, Arsenal have a tissue paper midfield, and Man City are all over this year’s Premier League like a rash, baby! They have, of course, promised us a top four finish, then bigger things to come next year.

As an aside, how must little Wright-Phillips feel about leaving Chelsea, only to find himself back at Chelsea?

Gutted.
