After a tense World Cup final, absolutely worthy of the occasion, Argentina ousted France after penalties. A cycle is complete. Han ganado los pibes!

The final result of 3-3 brought in sufficient excitement for all of us outside the conflict. To us it wasn’t a matter of life and death. However it did feel that majority of the football-loving world was supporting Argentina. The country that truly lives for football that is now shaking with excitement and happiness for their National Team.

Real beat Barcelona at Camp Nou (2-1) reaching the top of La Liga. But was fun to watch? The once exhilarating clash of the titans nearly became a single-goal match. With no Messi or Ronaldo, and a strange approach from both benches it was all a far cry from the 2010s. At what point did it all go wrong?

Toda una ducha fría para la Selección española que perdió con un 0:2 de Italia. Una España confundida, kilómetros alejada del tiki-taka que le había ganado tanto prestigio. Pese a la amarga derrota, De Gea se destaca como el jugador más importante del partido, que había salvado a la Selección de una humillación completa.
