Panama Take On USA in Copa Oro Quarters
Familiar Foes
La Marea Roja once again meet the USA in the Gold Cup knockout stages, having been defeated by their Northern neighbors in the 2005 final, and once again in the 2007 quarters. It certainly won’t be an easy task for the Americans, as Panama has played well over the course of the tournament, losing narrowly to Guadeloupe despite dominating the final stages, battling Mexico (literally) to a draw, and crushing Nicaragua. This performance makes our World Cup failure even more tough to take, as surely Panama could have done some damage in the final round. But alas.
While this US team is young, they are dangerous, with the likes of Holden, Rogers and even Davy Arnaud turning in some good performances. I am going to go ahead and predict the upset however. Blas Perez will get the first, and with the US pushing to find an equalizer, Tejada will get the second, for a 2-0 upset.
Anyone else have predictions?
Highlights
Panama 4 Nicaragua 0
Guadeloupe 2 Panama 1

So while the Panamanian national side won’t be travelling to South Africa in a year and a half, they can console themselves with a UNCAF Nations Cup title and an appearance in this summers Gold Cup, a tournament where they performed very well in the 2007 edition.

Bienvenidos
So first off, my apologies. I completely and utterly forgot I had this blog until today….and Panama is already eliminated from qualifying for WC2010!! Gutted really that I didn’t even have a chance to preview the campaign at all, or write any match reports (although they weren’t pretty, believe me).

For Love Or Football
"Footballer asked to give up honeymoon for new club." Admit it - first thoughts center around the wife and a reaction worthy of any reality shows in which a new bride or bride-to-be seem like a good candidate for a rubber room and a key which gets mysteriously lost for...ever. Tim Ream ...
Bayern Munich Signs The Common Man

Jose Being Jose, In A Parking Lot
That's Jose after last night's Clasico, hanging out in the Camp Nou parking lot next to the referee's car. He's not waiting to tell him how much he enjoyed his performance or beg him for the maker of his cologne, I can tell you that much. Google Translate can do ...
Cristiano Throws A Clasico-Sized Fit
A Clasico which lived up to its name? But of course. And Cristiano was seen off the ball throwing what should now be one of his toddler tantrums? But of course. It's not one of his finest, in fact it'd have a hard time cracking his top five, but it's nice to ...
Mirandes: This Year's Cinderella
Despite the nonsense about some other matchup in the Copa del Rey right now - can't quite remember the names of those rather insignificant teams at the moment - the real story is not east, not west, but down. Way down in the third division. Mirandes, a humble little club ...
Overhead To The Head
Thee Balotelli stamp seems to be making its way round the internet quite soundly right now, but there was a far more vicious boot to the head in Europe this weekend which probably won't see any pop remixes anytime soon. Dorge Kouemaha of Kaiserslautern went to clear a ball out ...
Fly, Fly Away With Diego
When Al Wasl paid a hefty sum of money to Diego Maradona to lead their team, they did so not with the idea of getting the next great football coach, but with the idea that he'd be part coach, part entertainer, occasionally part circus clown. He rarely disappoints, if he ...
Spicing Up The Official Club Page
When you're a Brazilian club of the third division and you're starved for hits on your website, there are only two possible options: i. Hire a spammer. ii. Porn.
