A Miracle Up In Flames

As the year ends, many people have suffered losses throughout the year. One of these is Mexican club Cruz Azul lost the finals against rivals Toluca on Sunday. This was one the best finals I have ever seen with both sides trying to win their ninth cup. It was very suspenseful with both sides winning the ball every second. Cruz Azul was able to score twice and went on to extra time, since Toluca had scored twice in the previous match, to decide the champion. Both sides showed signs of not giving up. When both halves of extra time had ended, the clock edged closer to midnight as penalty shoot outs came. Both teams scored their penalties successfully and seemed that both teams will keep on going. After Toluca had scored their eighth penalty Cruz Azul had to equalize. As the Alejandro Vela approached the line, the clock had struck midnight. When he shot it, Toluca goalkeeper Cristante stops the ball ensuring Toluca's ninth title. As Toluca celebrates, Midnight had approached

Its Almost Open.

The Transfer Window in Europe is almost open and many teams are ready to capture some of the greatest footballers Europe has to offer. One of these players is Arsenal's own William Gallas. The 31 year old has stated that if he does not renew the contract then he is ready to leave. Italy clubs Milan and Juventus are in to try to sign the Frenchman and many are stating the is going to join Juve. Manchester City, however, is the club that many are saying that they will be buying the most players with bids already for Kun Aguero, Gianluigi Buffon, Kaka, and Fernando Torres. Only time will tell if City will be able to get the players they want.

And the Winner is........

It was announced today that Manchester United and Portugal winger Cristiano Ronaldo has won the Ballon D'Or the most prestigious award in all of European football. It was no surprise that this man has won, I mean look at all he has done for the club. He has scored 42 goals and was able to help Manchester win both The Premier League and the Champions League, winning its first Champions League title since 1999. In my opinion Ronaldo is already the greatest in all of football. He will continue to amaze everyone even those who hate him. Leo Messi came in second and Fernando Torres came in third
