Unirea Urziceni - Universitatea Craiova 3-2
This was probably the best match of this winter season. Well... actually only the second half of the game. Because Universitatea Craiova made a waiting game in the first half and because of this we received a goal in the 27th minute of the game.
After the break, this match was like a hurricane. Big opportunities in front of both goals, and more 4 goals scored. Craiova came back twice and made 1-1, and 2-2. This should be the final result of the game, but Urziceni scored in the very last second of the game ('93) and the final score was 3-2. Nice game but no points in table for Craiova.

South Africa 2010 World Cup
Last week there were a lot of international games for World Cup 2010 qualifying. In America and in Europe we had a lot of big surprises.
First of all, England made a great match against Croatia. They won with 5-1 and this score tells everything about this game. The bookmakers had already given to England the first chance to in the future World Cup. They are between the most valuable teams in the company of Spain and Brasil, of course.
Another big surprise will be Portugal. Even they have one of the greatest football players in the World, they did only a draw, 1-1 against Denmark, and they will miss in South Africa. So we will have a World Cup without Cristiano Ronaldo.
But the biggest surprise we had last week it was Argentina. After 1-3 against Brasil, they have lost one more game against Paraguay (0-1) and now it seems that Argentina will miss in South Africa, also. After Ronaldo, it seems that Lionel Messi will not be in the future World Cup. Diego Armando Maradona will be probably fired from Argentina's national football team. Next year we will see a championship without any stars but with a lot of soul and passion if you take a look at the fans of the winners.
