Old man’s still got it.
I won’t bore you with a long report on the Le Havre match, but I watched it this morning and, in general, was pretty impressed. Nice dominated the first half, thanks in part to a massive performance by Faé, and Modeste played the best 45 minutes I’ve ever seen out of [...]

[Not as scared of Baky and Ben Arfa as he looks. Probably.]
•The Grenoble match will be played either a week from today or on the 17th of this month. The 10th was the league’s initial proposal, but Pierre Wantiez had a fit about Nice getting an extra day of rest, so it could be pushed [...]

International Roundup + Some Hellebuyck

By: Martha | Comments No Comments

I watched most of the Colombia-Nigeria match which ended 1-0 to the home team, with Apam going the full 90 for Nigeria, and Ospina in Colombia’s goal for the second half.
