Roberto Donadoni admits he expected heavy media criticism following Italy’s defeat to Holland in their opening game of Euro 2008.

The world champions have seen their European hopes immediately put on the back foot after Monday’s 3-0 defeat to Holland in Berne.

Donadoni, who signed a new contract before the start of the tournament, saw his team’s performance draw a fierce response from the Italian media.

“Honestly I was waiting for that,” said Donadoni.

“I’m not bitter that they went to town on us, but more or less it wasn’t a bed of roses reading them.”

First Act:

Inter Milano celebrate in big style the 100 years of existence.Everybody is happy and the coach Mancini receive praises from president Morrati. No one though that the party will disrupt the focus of the players for the match against Liverpool.

Second Act.

The lost the game with Liverpool.In big style.Mancini announce the resignation after the end of this season.Morratti is thinking to fire him mediately and the name of Mourihno appears on all newspapers.

The third act.

Mancini regrets the resignation announce.Is not leaving.He declared :”I;m sorry,I was very upseat after the lost against Liverool.I want to stay and i want to win the championship.Is no point in messing up things”.Morratti confirmed:”He wants to win.He want to win the Championship League in 2009.He will respect his contract.”

The Italian press consider these declarations as part of plan to calm down things and to not affect the Inter chances to win the title.The team is divided in two groups and now they must be convinced to pull in the same direction.

“Corriere dello Sport” talks about a group of rebels.The leaders of the group are Figo, Viera and Crespo who will be more than happy if Mancini will leave.The other group lead by Chivu and Stankovici want to continue with Mancini.

There are big chances that Mourinho will train Inter Milan in summer.The Portuguese asked for serious guarantees and annual wage of 8.5 million euros.

And the saga continues…..

It was a crazy weekend in Spanish soccer.At one moment (because they played in the same time) Real and Barcelona shared the first position with in front of the table.But two biggest talents of Primera Division didn’t agree with the situation.

The first one is Kun Aguerro ,a 19 year old striker who defeat by himself the mighty Barcelona. Until Kun entered the field Barca was running the show.They had 1-0 after Ronaldinho’s super goal.Kun manage to equalize after his shoot was deviated into the net by Puyol. And from this point forward there was a different story.Kun Aguerro give an assist for Maxi Rodriguez who makes the score 2-1,then Forlan put another one from the penalty spot and in the end the new star makes the score 4-1 after a superb play.

On the other hand ,Robinho (23 years) comes into the game in 72 minutes when the score was 1-1 after a goal score by Raul and the opposite site down to 9 players.After 41 seconds the brazilian make it 2-1 and in the 90 minutes scored another goal and put Real in top of the table.

5 points again : Atletico Madrid-Barcelona : 4-2

Strange match on “Vicente Calderon”.Strange because of the score evolution, because Barcelona finish in knee a game that was almost won in the first 30 minutes and because Atletico manage to save a game that seemed to be lost.

Messi’s absence may be one of explanations but this cannot count 100%.Without the Argentinian Barcelona controlled the game in the first 30 minutes and Atletico cross the midfield line only 4 times.Ronaldihno scored with a perfect scissor from Xavi’s cross and it seemed that Ronaldihno’s comeback will bring the 3 points to Barca.

After the first half an hour the Catalan’s nightmare started.Inexplicable since they had a 72% ball possession.That doesn’t count in score board but creates an artificial state of wellness.At that moment Barcelona was on first place with the same number of points as Real.But Kun entered the game.Kun Aguero, Maradona’s future son in law was sent on the field and he played like the old Argentinian star.The first goal was scored with chance but after that Kun Aguero was unstoppable.He played with the catalan’s defence : Puyol, Edmison or Milito were not able to stop him .Rijkaard had also a panic attack: this is the only explanation for the tactic he applied after he saw Kun’s game.

All four goals had Kun’s signature and Barcelona has to start all over again.

Recreativo - Real Madrid 2-3

For these game there are two main keywords: “before” and “after”.Before this match , Real Madrid lost all the games in Andaluzia. After the game they have five points in front of Barca and the title is very close.

Before the 27 minute Recreativo dominate the game, missed some good opportunities and even manage to open the score.After that minute Real made his comeback.They got a little help from the refferee who validate Raul’s goal (it was offsaid).

Before the 72 minute Real looked like a team that forgot how to play soccer.No imagination,no sparks not a drop of fantasy.After that minute they looked like champions.Robinho was sent into the game and he scored two times.It looks like the brazilian become a mature player.His last goal was a piece of art.One-Two with Gabo and an aesthetic lob over the goalkeeper.
