Samuel Eto’o has been fined €12,000 by the Real Federacion Española de Futbol (RFEF) for his celebration after Barça won La Liga in 2005. Eto’o chanted “Madrid cabron saluda al campeon” which is one of the favourite chants here from the fans when Barça win anything. Literally translated it means “Madrid, bastard, salute the champion” […]

Just a quick roundup of today’s news, I’ve had a long day at work and I ought to think about taking out my better half tonight. First story is that Barça have signed a 14-year-old wonderkid called Mauro Icardi. Born in Argentina but with an Italian passport, Mauro has played for the Canary Island team UD […]

Another day passes and Samuel Eto’o is still not back in Barcelona. It was originally thought he would return yesterday, this then changed to today, but now the news says that he won’t be back until tomorrow, Thursday.

It wasn’t to be for Samuel Eto’o and Cameroon who lost 1-0 to Egypt in the African Cup Of Nations final today in Accra. Egypt were deserved winners and scored the only goal of the game when Abou Trika made the most of a dreadful defensive mistake by Rigobert Song. Eto’o only had a couple […]

Cameroon have upset the host nation Ghana by beating them 1-0 in the first of today’s semi-finals.

Barça will have to make do for one more game without Toure Yaya and Samuel Eto’o. Toure’s Ivory Coast qualified for Thursday’s semi-finals thrashing Guinea 5-0 in Sekondi on Sunday.

Defeat in the quarter finals of the African Cup Of Nations is the last possible chance of Samuel Eto’o or Toure Yaya coming home early. If Toure’s Ivory Coast lose to Guinea on Sunday or Eto’o’s Cameroon lose to Tunisia on Monday, they will be back to play at Sevilla next Saturday. If their teams […]

Samuel Eto’o made history today by becoming the top scorer in the history of the African Cup Of Nations finals.

Samuel Eto’o made history today by scoring his fourteenth African Cup goal. He equals the Ivorian Laurent Pokou who until now held the record. Eto’o scored Cameroon’s fourth goal from the penalty spot in a 5-1 win over Zambia in Kumasi. I guess we may have to wait a little longer for Eto’o to return […]
