| “I am low contract and take very much respect as the Galaxy. But the opportunity to play for the Milan is something special”, expressed Beckham. “He knew that he would enjoy it, but I did not think that he would enjoy it so much”. |
It is the hour. From February 11, six selections that are part of the hexagonal one of the Concacaf will begin to answer to the question of which they will extract direct passages to South Africa 2010, and who it will be the one that the repechaje should dispute with the Conmebol.
Costa Rica versus Honduras, the United States against Mexico and El Salvador before Trinidad will give the vamos to the hexagonal one. Every team has fortitude and weaknesses and undoubtedly the happened in the Cup UNCAF serves like reference to what must happen.
After the poor presentation of El Salvador in the UNCAF (in which it obtained a victory, a tie and three followed defeats), the cuscatlecos must go out with everything opposite to the trinitarios. Although the waters are a little blurred given a supposed resignation of Carlos de los Cobos after the disaster of Honduras (what was denied by the Salvadoran federation), those of “Blue“ must come afiatados.
For his part, the trinitarios summoned eight of his stars that play in England therefore also they will come treating to be imposed like contenders.
Honduras, as, is filled with enthusiasm after his big groups phase in the qualifying rounds. His technician, Reinaldo Rueda, said that the Honduran team is well structured. In the end we hope to appear in the first three places.”.
Costa Rica also has had good deliver at once, especially after disputing the final of the Cup UNCAF, and the USA is confident of winning Mexico.
And Mexico is exactly the big doubt for this one hexagonal.
The technician Sven Goran Eriksson has been criticized by the soccer opened by the "Tri". Mexico comes of losing before Sweden (the USA won the same rival) and the worst thing is that the Aztec commentators speak about a “team without soul”. It must not be surprised that, in case of a defeat before the Americans there multiply the voices that ask the Swedish for the resignation.

Marco Antonio Barrera made sure that it will demonstrate that Amir Khan will not bear his given one and he entrusts that a victory will give him the opportunity champion is crowned in the fourth different division.
The fight of March 14 in Manchester will be for the light weight and this one promises very much.
The Mexican Barrera has been a champion seven times in another three divisions. At his 35 years one will measure a rival who is 13 years old younger.
Khan will try to do something that another Briton, Naseem Hamed, could not achieve in April, 2001. This time, Barrier gave a lesson to Hamed on having gained him for decision for the title pen.
Apart from giving the second defeat to Khan, the Mexican wants to clear the way for a combat for the world belt in the light ones.
“ This is what motivates me”, the ex-monarch declared superrooster, pen and superpen. “If I win him, since undoubtedly the door is opened to me for a fight of world title”.
Although Khan was noqueado for Breidis Prescott in the first assault last September, the Briton redeemed himself on having finished in two rounds Oisin Fagan to leave in 19-1 his record.
“ I have seen it a pair of times and have studied his fights”, he declared Barrier on Khan. “I know that he is an excellent boxer, but it commits many errors and I believe that it has a weak jaw. I am sure that I win him”.
Khan, who took the silver medal at the age of 17 in the Olympic Games of Athens 2004, is considered to be one of the principal promises of the British boxing.
“ It has always been my ambition in spite of wrapping me with the best and this will be the first one”, he declared Khan. “I am going to fight with a legend... This is my motivation to go to the gymnasium and to be a better boxer”.
“ I saw it when it defeated Naseem Hamed, but I am a boxer completely different from Hamed”, he added.
Barrier (65-6, 43 nocauts) returned to the activity on Saturday, the 3rd with a victory for disqualification on the Cuban Freudis Rojas. The combat was disputed in the Zapopan locality. Red he gave a butt to Barrier, who ended with a cut in the left eyebrow and which prevented him from keeping on fighting.
“ I do not want to speak on the cut, that happened already”, he said Barrier.

Now when it is official that David Beckham wants to remain in Italy, the question is: what will do the MLS to be able to attract talent of world level?
“ I have expressed my desire to remain in the Milan and now it is only a question that the Milan and the Galaxy agree”, confirmed the Englishman, words that undoubtedly provoked headaches between the managers of the MLS.
It is not possible to blame Beckham. There is a difference world between being play with stars like Ronaldinho and Kaká, to play in one of the worst clubs of the American league.
But eye, although it is a serious blow to the MLS, this ending was foreseeable. In a certain way, Beckham's adventure in American courts seems not to correspond to the pedigree of the linkage, on having checked the clubs in which it has played in his career (Manchester United, Real Madrid, AC Milan and … Los Angeles Galaxy).
“ It is not at all against the MLS and the soccer there (in the United States). It is a sport that is growing, but to which it will take him a few years. I am entrusted that that will happen possibly, but I want to have the opportunity to be in the World 2010 and believe that there me is the best possibility staying here”, said Becks in the interview.
It is probable that Beckham turns person oddly pleasant in the United States, but the fault also has the league. As players' market, the MLS is not a protagonist in the absolute thing. Until now, the quality of the parties is mediocre (the ratings of television like that confirm it) and consequently the talent that attracts the league is not of the first line.
Nevertheless, this does not mean that the current situation is going to continue. Although Beckham's almost sure desertion is an attack to the international "credibility" of the league in the world concert, if the MLS is applied it will be able to attract more talent at the level of English in the future.
But earlier, the measurement of the “Player Designated” (that is to say, a soccer player who is over the wage ceilings) will need a pair of attempts and errors up to managing to obtain good elements in the payrolls. Like example, we have the cases of Marcelo Gallardo and Guillermo Barros Schelotto.
The "Doll" was clearly an error (in fact, four South Americans of DC United 2008: Graceful, Martínez, Peralta and Niell did not continue in the club), but the "Twin" yes produced the awaited fruits, since Columbus was the champion of the MLS the past period.
In the immediate thing, it will be necessary to create new ways of attracting young talent not only of Latin America, but also of Africa, quarries of possible good soccer players at not so high prices. And the rest is only to say bye bye David Beckham, and I hope that the team of England manages to integrate in 2010.

Panama took revenge of Costa Rica on having gained him for 5-3 in the penalties throwings the final of the Cup of Nations of the UNCAF disputed in Honduras.
It was a question of the first Panamanian consecration in a regional tournament and it took place in moments in which the morality of the soccer was for the soil after the early elimination last year in the qualifying rounds to the world cup of South Africa to hands of El Salvador.
In the final of the UNCAF 2007, Costa Rica broke Panama in the party for the title. But on the 1st Sunday, the Panamanian ones were perfect from twelve steps him to win the Costa Rican ones later that the regulatory time finished without goals.
More than the calmness, the title gives him to the love a reason to forget at least at the moment a reverses seguidilla in the last year. In addition to the elimination for South Africa, Panama was eliminated for the world cups Sub20 and Sub17.
But the disaster before El Salvador in the second round of the qualifying rounds to South Africa was the hardest blow and it provoked the exit of the Costa Rican technician Alexander Guimaraes.
After this deceased process, the English technician Gary Stempel took charge of the selection, in the middle of the entire demoralization and the doubts. The title represented another big achievement for Stempel, as it was the first classification to a world cup Sub20.
“ These boys answered well; this is for Panama”, pointed out Stempel. “It was necessary to trust in these boys and here is the result”.
