Rugby: Clash Of The Titans

As you may have heard, the Rugby World Cup starts this weekend and a lot of people are looking forward to it. I think that Ireland have a strong team this year and the should make it to the semi finals. New Zealand are really strong and still do the intimidating Haka chant before they play. I think that South Africa could go a long way because they have a lot of confidence built up for the World Cup. My semi finalists would be Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand and Wales. The start of this great tournament has been highly anticipated and I truly believe that we could be in for one of the most exciting World Cups in the history of Rugby. New Zealand will look to maintain their place at the top of the world list and Ireland will look to make their mark on world cup history.

The Beast Of Sport

Soccer:   Chelsea In Trouble

As I’m sure you know, Chelsea have had a really poor start to the season. Drawing one losing three and winning one. They are already 11 points behind the league leaders Manchester City who have won 5 out of 5. So that leaves us wondering, Is something happening back stage with Mourinho? Honestly I think that something must be happening back stage purely because Chelsea are playing more like Wigan than the defending champions. Maybe it’s because over the transfer window they only bought the struggling Falcao who only scored 4 goals last season for Manchester United. Maybe Chelsea thought they they would crush everybody because they did last year or maybe Mourinho is getting a little cocky. Whatever it is, I think that Chealsea really need to put their foot on the gas now. As the old saying goes, It’s now or never for Chelsea.

Soccer:    De Gea Denied

When the transfer window closed at 11 pm two days ago, it was announced that David De Gea would not be going to Real Madrid because the transfer papers did not arrive on time. Real Madrid and De Gea are devastated that the transfer did not take place.  Now, since United bought Sergio Romero (the goalkeeper for Argentina), because they thought that De Gea would be at Real Madrid,  De Gea might not start. I feel really sorry for De Gea since now he might not be able to put his talent to use. 

Real Madrid claim that the transfer papers actually arrived one minute before the deadline but in truth the papers arrived 1 minute after the deadline. De Gea is a great goalkeeper and it is a shame that he may not be able to play on a regular basis this year. De Gea is truly a Beast of Sport.
