Video: Maxi and Kun Handle Business

Along with Leo Messi of course.
I’m not an albiceleste but it’s an absolute joy to watch football this pretty.

Battered And Down From The Clouds

By: Al | Comments No Comments

Typical Atlético. It should be illegal for a team to be this unpredictable.
It’s not yet time to start getting frustrated at the team because there’s plenty of season left, but seriously? 2-0 loss to Mallorca? No offense to the islanders, but they are (or were) relegation fodder, the sort of teams that we’re so good [...]

Calling New York Offsiders, plus… Diego Forlan Comedy

By: Al | Comments 5 Comments

I know that there are many of you. Barcelona fans. Valencia fans. Come out, come out, wherever you are.
This is completely off topic from anything Atlético (or is it?) and I wouldn’t do this unless I knew that I’d get some good tips from you guys. I’ll be heading to NYC at the end of [...]

Forlán and Maxi In A Music Video

By: Al | Comments 1 Comment

You don’t have to watch the whole thing, they’re only in the first few seconds. Unless you want the evil hand of catchy Argie pop to grab you by the throat, or want to watch a pretty lady dance in a junkyard for the entire video. I warned you.
“Nunca Tendré” by Coti.

A huge thank you to Alessio from Juventus Offside who was lucky to attend the match at the Calderon and take pictures from the stands.
Here’s a video of the match winning goal from the stands, also taken by Alessio. I can’t embed from Flickr, sorry.
Here are his pics, enjoy!

No Villarreal, You Cannot Have Points

By: Al | Comments 1 Comment

…said Atlético Madrid after Antonio Lopez scored the match winner. With his goal, a match packed with stupid Villarreal goals and Atlético domination was finally laid to rest with yet another Atlético victory. I love and hate these types of matches. Don’t think for a moment that I was scared at all when we were [...]

We’re Out Of Hurr

By: Al | Comments 3 Comments

Adios, Champions League. We are the only team to be eliminated without losing a match in the competition. It wasn’t our year in this competition, or in any competition this year, let’s face it. We’re out of the competition whose qualification is our main goal this season. (Ok, I’ll stop saying “competition”).
The reason I’m not [...]

Porto vs. Atlético: The Other Preview

By: Al | Comments 2 Comments

Admit it, you forgot that Atlético was still in the Champions League. I kinda did too… after a rollercoaster of a season, I forgot that we’re still within the top 16 of Europe.
If you didn’t watch the first leg (I know you didn’t you jerks, don’t lie), Porto pretty much played us like fools and [...]

Good Job, But For The Love Of God… Score!

By: Al | Comments 5 Comments

This right here, friends, is the man of the hour, the holiest of the pretty blonde strikers, Diego Forlán.
All I have to say is: ho-ho-ho-holy crap. That was easily one of the best Atletico performances that I’ve seen all year, even if some of our players had an off day, out of ALL days. We [...]

Puta Madrid vs. Atlético: Revenge NOW

By: Al | Comments 5 Comments

The title race between Real and Barca is in Atlético’s hands.
Real Madrid on fire vs. Atlético Madrid on fire. Who will edge out the other in this match? Consider the fact that Atlético just defeated the best team in the world after being plummeted by 3 goals. On paper, Real should win by 3-0 or [...]
