from Oliver Meiler, RomeJuventus, the house number of all house numbers in Italian football, series champion and voracious trophy collector under the sky, is in free fall right now. Self-inflicted, one has to say, once again. Sports justice has fined the club for its alleged unfair business and administrative practices, which it appears to believe is a system. The judges of the football association FIGC deducted 15 points from Juve in the middle of the current season, the club falling...

It could also have been tight, one of those tactical and philosophical neutralization numbers that nobody enjoys. Something for schematics. That's how it was imagined before the top game SSC Naples against Juventus Turin, the anticipated finalissima halfway through the championship between the first and second in Serie A. Naples' light Bellezza against Juve's cynical efficiency. It was even said that a goal would probably only come in the last few minutes, here or there. When the parades are then...

Anyone who wants to penetrate him in order to get hold of one of the coveted posts must have not only specialist knowledge but also a lot of patience. For example, only a handful of people on this planet would recommend themselves for the job of national coach. In order to become part of this circle, some interested parties take extremely difficult paths: they become national players, straddle their way to...
Gareth Bale presented his last solo run to the world in double form. At the beginning of the week, he published two statements with similar content via the usual online channels: one for the general public and one for his native Wales.

A bon vivant goes far too early, at 58. Gianluca Vialli, whom everyone just called Luca, once a modern centre-forward with the cuffs just above ankle height, had experienced almost everything a footballer could wish for.

In the end, however, when the disease suddenly came back,...
His oversized likeness, thousands of longingly waiting fans in the stadium, a mighty light show: the welcome at his new club Al-Nassr was exactly what Cristiano Ronaldo liked.

With his move to Al-Nassr Football Club, Ronaldo bids farewell to the world football stage. The question is whether the soon to be 38-year-old will be happy in Saudi Arabia - or become a representative of the autocratic regime. Even Saudi Arabia's Al-Nassr Football Club didn't seem to be quite sure how the dimension of Cristiano Ronaldo's commitment should really be classified.
