Italy are the new European champions! After an innitial 1-1 and a dramatic penalty shootout, the trophy is indeed coming home to the two-time winners in blue. Tears on both ends and a burst of emotions marked a fantastic ending of a tournament that we had to wait a year longer.

Đanluiđi Bufon predstavlja kategoriju za sebe, koliko god (ne) voleli Juventus. Igrač koji se od svog kluba nije odvojio gotovo dve decenije, definisao je golmansku poziciju na terenu i van njega. Završetkom karijere ostavlja primer besprekornog trajanja u sportu uz filmski italijanski šarm.

La Roja echada de la Eurocopa!

For the first time in a decade, Spain is out of the Euros. The revenge of team Italy couldn’t have come in a better moment for the Azzurri that won by 2:0, kicking out the reigning champion from the tournament.

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. 

Nakon završena prva dva takmičarska dana na Eurobasketu, sledi kratak osvrt na stanje po grupama. Uz napomenu da grupe B i  C sutra imaju dan za odmor.  Rusija je upisala i prvi poraz na šampionatu. Srbija je pobedila Nemačku, a Španija  dokazala superiornost nad selekcijom Turske, i to najubedljivijom pobedom na dosadašnjem toku šampionata. Grčka je porazila Hrvatsku, u veoma napetom meču, dok je Slovenija savladala selekciju Gruzije. Litvanija je lako savladala Letoniju, nakon jučerašnje veoma neizvesne utakmice, na kojoj je odlučio samo jedan poen.

According to the sources at Il Messaggero, one of the most well known Serbian players, Nemanja Vidić, won’t be crossing over from Inter, to the neighbouring Roma.

Vidić, now 33 years-old, is the best paid player of the “Nerazzurri”. Despite that fact, he seems ready to leave, due to a supposed conflict with the coach, Roberto Mancini, that has left the former Manchester United captain sitting on the bench, during most of the past season.

The Serb has left the Premier League a legend, hoping to repeat the brilliant plays in Italy. With the season going by, it was obvious that the strong defender would have to look for a spot in the starting 11 some place else.  That fact was confirmed when Vidić wasn’t a part of this year’s Summer tour squad.

As the transfer window reaches its full swing, it’s only a matter of time when we find out the name of the new home for this well known centre-back.
