Season 25 week 7 processing...

Bayern 1 Frankfurt 0 Klose freekick on 29 minutes.

Ponte 1 Campinense 0 Paulino header on 30 minutes.

Ponte are Pete Greene's new feeder club, well not new, new to the vidiprinter, and top of the Brazilian 4th tier, working their way up, or so he hopes. Best of luck Pete, good start today in what has been an unbeaten 6 match run up to this point. Pete manages Berlin and has done so for quite a long time with some success, although, in his own words "having to contend with Bayern and Schalke is not easy".

Viking 2 Brann 0 Gaarde freekick on 31 minutes.

and we have another goal at Everton so lets cross to our Johnny on the spot, Tony Green, for what could be a crucial update...

It's all going swimmingly well for the away side at the moment as Daniel Sturridge celebrates following a great strike which has made it

Everton 0 Charlton 2

after 32 minutes.

Ajax 1 Sittard 1 Carvalho on 32 minutes.
Ancona 2 Cremonese 0 Gareth Bale header.

Kilmarnock 0 Rangers 2 Drogba penalty on 33 minutes.
NY City 0 Cosmos 1 Gonzalez.

Better from a struggling Rangers side but Cosmos still don't seem as all conquering as they were before the rebuilding program last season ? But maybe it's just me.

Leicester 0 Arsenal 1 Ramsey on 34 minutes.

A bit of a swap around in tactics at the Gunners where new boss Alan Mottram prefers to play with wingbacks and two holding midfielders, it'll be interesting to see if he can get that system working where others have failed miserably.

Schalke 1 Dortmund 0 Ronaldo penalty.
Parma 0 Inter 2 De Rossi freekick. What a good signing.

Stuttgart 2 Berlin 2 Kuranyi on 35 minutes levels things for the home side.
Cagliari 1 Salernitana 0 Gourcuff freekick.
Aberdeen 0 Inverness 1 Papasavvas

Inverness are another side that don't seem to be as all conquering as they use to be before the rebuilding, a hint here is to look for players who wont pass to each other in circumstances where they probably should have, these times are highlighted in the match reports, and represent team mates that don't really get along, usually because they both have the same aims in the team, for instance at Maine Road Dzeko and Carroll don't really get along cos they both want to play at centre forward, they still play well together, but not as good as say Dzeko and Robinho. These small things can make all the difference in building a top quality side capable of scoring six goals a game. Just a little hint for those watching

He was expensive but is a real difference in almost every game. In FAS as a DY he's particularly effective.

Aberdeen 1 Inverness 1 Cana freekick on 36 minutes.
Valencia 0 Bilbao 2 Beerens freekick.

Quite a few freekicks going in at the moment, not much bad weather around either, as Rob pointed out the pther week, may have to look at freekicks.

Valencia 1 Bilbao 2 Jonas on 37 minutes.

Parma 0 Inter 3 Higuain on 39 minutes.

Leicester 1 Arsenal 1 Adebayor penalty on 40 minutes.
Palace 1 Stockport 0 Elliott.

Have Brett's side finally stop freefalling down the league ?

Hamburg 1 Hoffenheim 0 Guerrero on 40 minutes.

Shamrock 0 Bohemians 1 Taouil penalty on 41 minutes.
Aberdeen 1 Inverness 2 Papasavvas freekick.

Rennes 0 Nantes 3 Ribery on 42 minutes.
Ancona 3 Cremonese 0 Alexis Sanchez.

Now here are two really well balanced sides in Nantes and Ancona both capable of cracking in the goals if the opposition let them.

Man City 1 Birmingham 1 Nani on 43 minutes.

Well, that shines a different light on the top of the Premiership for sure.

Stuttgart 2 Berlin 3 Sychev on 44 minutes.
Valencia 2 Bilbao 2 Aimar freekick as the home side fight back to draw level.

Argentinos 1 Boca 1 Valdez freekick right on the stroke of half time.

Refreshments for me then I'll be back with the second half, following this short break...

the whistle blows and the second half is underway...

Flamengo 3 Santos 0 Elias Trindade on 46 minutes.
Banstead 1 Swindon 1 O'Connor freekick.

Well that was a less than a bright start by two of my sides right at the beginning of the second half, esp disappointed with Santos conceding three, seems I have under estimated Flamengo and probably now lost any chance I had of the title after just seven games, unless of course things change at Flamengo, which is always possible with feeder clubs. So we shall see.

Doria is on the list Paul. An excellent young Brazilian CB. He could help your defence!!!!

Polonia 0 Wisla 1 Zahorski on 46 minutes.

Apparently the Klassa household were in uproar a few months before christmas when Ivan's wife decided she would make a better manager than her husband, so he told her to prove it.

Hiba 0 St Johnstone 1 Ronaldinho on 46 minutes.
