Legendary Teams: River Plate 1941-1946


" Munoz-Moreno-Pedernera-Labruna-Lostau . These five names, repeated as a kind of litany, are familiar to any fan of River Plate, a bit 'like the local "S Burgnich-arts-Facchetti ", so to speak. Names that evoke fond memories: images of a great team of the past that made the fans dream of Argentina, and more ...
























That River Plate, which was later called "La Maquina ," raged in Argentina during World War II, from 1941 to 1946, and Perhaps for this reason did not have the international showcase that he devoted some of his players to football heroes.
River Plate in full force

coach Renato Cesarini (yes, him, one of the famous "zone cesarini ") forges a very strong team, which is the dynamism and speed of execution of its strengths. Later they will say that this is the forerunner of the famous River Plate total calcium made famous in the world from Holland in the 70's. And maybe it is. From the tactical point of view
River Plate does not propose anything new, at least in appearance. The training camp is set in the classic WM (or system), tactics in vogue in those years. The real novelty is not so much in the - alleged - available tactics, as in the tasks and movements of individual players. The goalkeeper is the

young Amadeo Carrizo, as we have seen, is almost "forced" to play free view of the strong offensive attitude of the team. This means that you often see outside the poles, even the height of the disk of the penalty area, so be ready to go out on the feet of the attacking opponents in the event of a break. Before him there are three "backs" ("fullbacks") right there Norberto Yacono , quick and technically gifted player also discrete physical strength, and to the left Ferreira (later replaced by Rodriguez) , a fullback with good technical and tactical means. At the center instead opera, con compiti quasi da moderno centrale difensivo Ricardo Vaghi , il cervello e i polmoni della difesa. E’ lui la “star” della difesa: Ricardo è un giocatore con un’ottima visione di gioco, piedi educati e, soprattutto, grande carica agonistica.

I due mediani che operano davanti alla difesa sono Bruno Rodolfi e José Ramos , che da soli danno equilibrio alla squadra. Il loro compito principale consiste nel coprire le avanzate degli attaccanti e di recuperare più palloni possibili.

da sx a dx: Munoz, Moreno, Pedernera, Labruna e Lostau
de la Maquina If the defense can be considered "good", the real strength of the team is extraordinary "quintet" of attack. The two wings are also Juan Carlos Munoz and Felix Lostau . The first, Munoz, is a player of excellent technique: his dribbling and the coils on the band are his trademark, and it is not uncommon to see opposition fans applaud this amazing juggler. Its strength, however, is the extraordinary precision of his cross, whether they are flush with the ground or higher: many of the strikers are on his goal. On the I work opposite Lostau Felix, played very fast (Di Stefano told him that he was faster than people, one of the fastest players ever), good technique and vision of the game. More centralized, but with offensive skills, work José Manuel Moreno and Angel Labruna . The first, called "El Charro " (because of its remarkable resemblance to the Mexican cowboy), is an extraordinary player, called it by many more people like Maradona or the same Di Stefano. Jose is a player with a physique of a leg armor and magic: it has a prodigious technique, and often performs in play at the limit of the human. It has
also huge resistance, which allows him to move like a train all over the field ... The other is Angel Labruna midfield. Angel is actually a bomber disguised as a midfield, and the numbers say: nearly 300 goals in 18-year career, enormous. It 's a technical player, with perfect integration times, the powerful shot and precise and incredibly opportunistic net. Finally, the center of attack is perhaps the Star with a capital H the team, or Adolfo Pedernera . Who has seen him play sings its praises as the best Argentine player of all time, but people like Maradona and Di Stefano. Although games in the position of the center-attack (at the time a sort of "point" in the penalty area, whose only job is to throw it in), really is more of a midfielder Pedernera: loves it often return in midfield, dragging the marker and leaving the field open to fellow department. As a player, Adolfo
is extraordinary physically frail, but compensates with extraordinary technique: it has the incredible ability to always be able to serve the partner with less unmarked launches millimeter, his shot is powerful and precise, and the naturalness with which the moves sphere is that of adults.

The whimsical Munoz
From the perspective of the River Plate tactical functions as a machine (hence the name "La Maquina"): each team member acts as a well-oiled mechanism, with the right timing to allow the team to operate. Players of the River Plate football play a fast, exciting, incredible game done, overlapping, and triangulation of one against a sudden and very rapid. Just as happened with Ajax and the Netherlands 30 years later, the players do not have fixed positions in the field, but love does not rotate continuously to give reference points to opponents. The right wing Munoz, for example, likes to get to the bottom of the field and serve the onrushing Moreno, always on time in goal area. The pressing is continuous and suffocating, and the results of that game is real: on average almost four goals scored per game, enormous. It 's also true that a game like that requires physical resources is not indifferent:'ll sometimes see a real goleada in the field (they are in fact rare 6-5 or 4-3). In 1943 a young man with his head on his shoulders and feet fast, affectionately called by his companions "La Saeta Rubia" (the blond arrow), because of the color of the hair, take the place of Moreno. A Alfredo di Stefano. The cycle of Maquina will expire in 1946, with the departure of captain and key player (for 10 years) Adolfo Pedernera.

10 Inch Telescope Too Heavy



Obdulio Varela - the man who challenged the Maracana


in history calcium are the leaders, courageous player who, with their charisma and extraordinary determination they managed to win challenges considered impossible. One of them is definitely Obdulio Varela, Captain ....


Muiños Obdulio Jacinto Varela was born in Montevideo, in Uruguay, il 20 Settembre 1917. Dopo una breve parentesi nella squadra locale del Deportivo Juventud, Obdulio lega la sua fama prima ai Wanderers, e poi Al Peñarol, la prima società di Montevideo. Qui si consacra come stella del calcio, e viene per la prima volta soprannominato “ El Jefe ” (Il capo). Con il Peñarol vince 6 campionati e viene....



riconosciuto all’unanimità come leader fuori e dentro lo spogliatoio. Con la nazionale il suo cammino inizia nel 1942, con la vittoria della Coppa America. 

Tecnicamente Obdulio Varela gioca nella posizione di centromediano, una sorta di mediano "taglia & cuci", che ha il compito di marcare il centravanti avversario così come di far ripartire l’azione. " El Jefe " è un giocatore con piedi abbastanza grezzi e tecnica mediocre, ma i suoi punti di forza sono da ricercarsi altrove: in campo è un autentico leone, un atleta incredibile che fa della straordinaria grinta e del sacrificio i suoi punti di forza. Varela, più di ogni altro, rappresenta la “ Garra ”, ovvero la grinta, la rabbia agonistica, che ha sempre contraddistinto players Uruguayans.

Uruguayan champion's career runs quiet, between high (many) and low (few), up to a warm evening in July 1950. It 's the night of the final World Cup, which this year takes place in Brazil. One of the two finalists is obviously the home team comes easily to the expectation that final trimming 13 goals in 2 games in the final stages. The Brazilians are obviously doomed to win, and the final against Uruguay seems to surprise a practice already resolved. The 200,000 already celebrating the Maracana, and wonder just how many goals will do the poor unfortunates who are faced with. On the streets the people dance, drink, and the Brazilian Football Federation has already prepared 11 limousine for the "victorious" finalists. The path of Uruguay is broken: a draw against Spain (6-1 defeat by Brazil) and a sluggish 3-2 victory against Sweden (underground networks, six, Brazil). Uruguay is a good team that has the heart of Captain Varela Schiaffino and brain of its strengths, but in front of the Brazilian super power, what is more at home, seems to have no hope.


Before the match the moods of the two clubs are poles apart: the Brazilians are already celebrating the rhythm of the samba, the Uruguayans are silent, with her eyes looking downward. All except one. Upon entry into the field looking frightened fellow Obdulio the stands packed with cheering crowds, but it is the Jefe in contact with their harsh tone screaming " never look at the forums! The game is played here! . The referee, Englishman George Reader, is preparing the traditional coin toss Varela when suddenly jumps at the dime just launched, and looking in his eyes the astonished referee, whispers "Mr arbitrator Brazilians also leave the comfort of choice. Because we will be world champions . His tone is hard but at the same time calm, these words are not fact. What we really believe, think the referee. Amen. The first 20 minutes the Brazilian attack with his head down: a real tidal flows in the Uruguayan midfield, but it is the national host to hit a pole on the counterattack. Throughout the first time the Uruguay miraculously manages to keep. Varela is a lion in the field, pounced on all the Brazilian players with fury, and directs the department with expertise. The first half ended goalless. Patience, we will do him 4 or 5 in the second half seem to think the fans.

pass just 60 seconds after the break and Brazil takes the lead. A quick exchange of the phenomenon and the exterior Zizinho FRIACO sends it over the network. 200000 I can finally rejoice. A superhuman cry of liberation, shakes the Maracana.

The decisive goal of Ghiggia.
Obdulio Varela do not lose heart, and within seconds the ball back in midfield personally looking into the eyes opponents. It seems made for Brazil, but, you know, miracles sometimes happen. At 21 'Varela over Brazilian midfielders with a good launch for the wing Ghiggia, who after CSD, is the onrushing Schiaffino beating in the network. 1-1. Suddenly the roar turns into silence. The 11 players Uruguayans seem animated by a spirit warrior fighting for every ball and try in every way to stop the Brazilians, with good and bad. A few minutes after the unthinkable happens: You Ghiggia after progression on the band to electrocute Barbosa. 2-1. The last 10 minutes as Brazil attempts a last desperate assault, but it is too late. Uruguay is world champion. The eyes in disbelief disconsolate and the Brazilian supporters are the eyes of a whole country. Hundreds of people commit suicide that night, then known as " Maracanazo " the disaster of the Maracana. A whole country is crying and despair, while players new champions celebrate in disbelief. Some of them are even victims of blind rage Brazilian (Ghiggia in particular was beaten and did not play for a year).

Varela That same night, on the contrary of his comrades, he decides courage not to just leave Brazil, but is confused among the many Brazilians who decide to vent their bitterness and anger in the city's bars. Obdulio drinks and cries with them for a moment he can understand their pain. Years later he died in poverty. Shortly before he died that night said: "That day it was written that we were to win, not temvano neither God nor the devil." We can blame him?

Superman And Louis Lane Wedding Cake Toppers



The Goalkeeper


I ndubbiamente il ruolo del portiere è quello che si è meno evoluto sin dalla sua nascita. La scuola Europea (in particolare quella italiana e tedesca) è quella che, più di ogni altra,  è rappresentata da portieri illustri e significativi. Per oltre 80 anni il portiere (in inglese " goal keeper ", ovvero guardiano della porta)  non è altro che un palo piantato davanti alla porta, il cui unico compito è that of not letting the ball into the net













Undoubtedly, the role of the goalkeeper is the one that is less evolved since its inception. The school European (especially German and Italian) is that, more than any other, is represented by prominent and significant goalkeepers. For over 80 years the port (in English " goal keeper ", or guardian of the door) is nothing but a pole planted at the door, whose sole task is not bring the ball into the net. It is unlikely to see out on the corners, or outside in one against a child. He has even forbidden to move beyond the goal line. Only 80 years after the goalkeeper becomes "officially" also the first defender on the team, able to move wisely outside the poles as needed.

Zamora in one of its outputs
reckless
If we analyze the history of football, however, , you may notice that there are two names that have brought a breath of fresh air. The first is English Ricardo Zamora , a true national leader of the Iberian Espanyol between years 30 and 40. Ricardo is remembered as the first pioneer of the modern goalkeeper: adventure is often, quite unconsciously, out of the stakes.
Exits often clashing with the attacker off guard or on the corners to grab the ball in flight. Iberia is also regarded as the strongest and most skilled goalkeeper before the war, a kind of legendary figure. Some twenty years later another door, this time South American and resumed the following characteristics: Amadeo Carrizo . Goalkeeper of River Plate, Amadeo is remembered as one of the strongest goalkeepers Argentina and, most importantly, innovators of all time: strong outputs in high or low as he is almost forced to play free in a super-team offensive attack and voted as the River Plate in those years, the famous "Maquina".

This role has had many famous actors over the decades. I've chosen a few:
Beautiful Yashin diving.
The first is undoubtedly the Soviet Lev Yashin , a real legend. Only goalkeeper in football history to win a gold ball and the military in any all-time team of all time, was a goalkeeper Lev extraordinary from every point of view and, above all, complete. Equipped with exceptional reflexes, has an imposing physique and agile and a great ability to block even the most difficult balls. Lev has gained its fame thanks to his extraordinary leadership skills and coolness, so that he was accused of literally mesmerize opposing players. Pararigori strong outing and the Soviet Union also has a reference to powerful and precise positioning of a specimen on the goal line and is also a skilled communicator.
Stunning parade Dane Schmeichel
to follow suit the Soviet choose one of my childhood myths : Peter "The Great Dane" Schmeichel, Danish giant real driver of the Danish national winner of EURO '92 and Manchester United in the mid 90's. Goalkeeper modern in every respect, Schmeichel is a true giant of 192 x 93 kg, with two huge shoulders and great physical strength. Despite the physical but the Dane has an amazing agility and lightning shots even when stationary, which is usually biased as a player with that amount. Peter is an eccentric goalkeeper, brave, almost "crazy" if you will, and this attitude is clear in his reckless outputs (both high and low), which is certainly one of the most illustrious. It throws almost always advance with extraordinary sense of timing and the ball literally to eradicate the foot (or head) of attacking opponents, almost scared dall'accorrere indomitable this blond giant. Peterone also has insane reflexes, a good positioning and a long extension of both her hands with his feet. Strong personality often had problems with coaches and other players, but his exuberance did not compromise an outstanding career full of personal recognition.
The third door that I take into account is an Italian: Gianluigi Buffon . Precocious talent, is a goalkeeper Gigi has a natural inborn talent. Initially it is a very dynamic and agile goalkeeper, without fear, without fear that jumps between feet of the opponent, and that makes exceptional reflexes and intuition of its strength. Over the years, however Buffon change his style of play is pretty sure a goalkeeper in goal, made no mistake and almost never makes the efficiency and consistency of his greatest quality, has excellent reflexes, is strong in the output has tactically and physically, is also a leader in the field and a funny guy out. It is loved by everyone, fans and non fans. His only weak point, so to speak, is that of penalties. Gigi has never been a big pararigori like Yashin or Schmeichel ... but we are sure that if it was undoubtedly would have been considered the strongest goalkeeper ever. Other notable examples of this role in addition to those cited: Ladislao Mazurkiewicz, Uruguay's goalkeeper of Polish origin, the Soviet Rinat Dasaev, Ubaldo Fillol the Argentine, Brazilian Gilmar, the German Sepp Maier and Oliver Kahn, the Italians Dino Zoff, Walter Zenga, the Yugoslavian Frantiseck Planicka, the British Gordon Banks and Peter Shilton. Goalkeepers modern worthy of mention: English Iker Casillas, Czech Peter Cech and Brazilian Julio Cesar.

Best Car For People With Back Problems









Heroes of Football: Fernando Peyroteo


Between 1946 and 1949 there is a team in Portugal, with its spectacular game, a dramatic and successful ignites the audience. The team is the Sporting Lisbon , also called " Os Cincos Violinos " (The five violins), the five events that drag the team played to the sound of ....
















... Four of them are players of fantasy and technical, they love to run and play ball with the ball between his feet. There is a fifth player, however, that turns to gold every ball, he plays a saber and foil, which makes the area such as attacking a tank, trampling everything in its path. E ' Fernando Peyroteo.

E 'an unknown name to most people, but football is full of great players who, for various reasons, remain in the shadows. Like many Portuguese players in those years (and later) Peyroteo born into a Portuguese colony, namely Angola, but young, she moved to Portugal where, in the youth Sporting CP, shows an incredible eye for goal for a boy so young.

his debut in the first team in 1937 at age 19, and immediately established itself as the classic bomber race. Fernando is a big boy of 188 cm for 90 pounds of muscle spread over a sculpture in the body. Physical strength is his prerogative, and there is no defender can stop this giant. In addition to the overwhelming physical, the Portuguese have a header for incredible power and precision, as well as his shots are real arrows. These features make it a real bugbear for the defenses of the time, not used to having to face opponents like that.

I suoi numeri sono impressionanti: in 197 partite Peyroteo mette a segno 330 goal, record che ancora oggi sopravvive nel campionato portoghese. La sua media realizzativi è di 1,68 goal a partita , una delle più alte della storia del calcio. Il suo percorso in nazionale è altrettanto impressionante: in 20 partite il colosso Angolano mette a segno 15 goal, una vera e propria enormità considerando che raggiunge il culmine della sua carriera in piena seconda guerra mondiale, epoca quindi senza competizioni “ufficiali” (come mondiali o europei). Altri numeri impressionanti: nell’annata 46/47 sono ben 43 i goal segnati; nove sono invece le reti messe a segno nel match contro il Leca (la partita finirà, per la cronaca, 14-0).

Peyroteo si ritirerà, a motivo di problemi personali (si parla di difficoltà economiche legate ad alcune sue attività imprenditoriali) all’età di 31 anni. Più avanti negli anni diventerà, senza risultati degni di nota, allenatore della Nazionale Portoghese, e più tardi ancora della Nazionale Angolana. Fatale sarà un match tra veterani tra Spagna e Portogallo: a seguito di un brutto intervento di un giocatore avversario Peyroteo si infortunerà seriamente ad un gamba, che gli verrà amputata. Non si riprenderà mai del tutto, morendo all’età di 60 anni.


Dal punto di vista tattico Fernando Peyroteo è il classico centro-attacco. Si muove poco, e lo fa solamente nell’area avversaria. Dopotutto, con quasi cinque mezzepunte (e che mezzepunte) che gli fanno piovere assist da tutte la parti, deve tirare su il fiato. Non è dotato di grande tecnica, ma possiede un senso della posizione eccellente, un tiro potente e preciso, uno stacco poderoso e un grandissimo fiuto del goal; inoltre in campo è un vero e proprio guerriero…lotta su ogni pallone come una fiera : tutte queste caratteristiche, unite ad un fisico impressionante power and resistance, making it probably the greatest striker to break through the world to remember.

Wedding Thank You Card Wording In Spanish



Legendary Teams: Ajax 1969-1974


P roprio as the legendary Greek hero (Ajax), from which it borrows the name Ajax has always been a team combative, stubborn, stubborn, and has always been known as a hotbed of great talenti del gioco del calcio. L’apice venne sicuramente raggiunto nel quinquennio 1969-1974....





















..











In un calcio ormai noioso, quasi scontato, che viveva sulle prodezze dei fuoriclasse e su schemi tattici consolidati e conosciuti , il geniale Rinus Michel (e Stefan Kovacs poi) propone finalmente qualcosa di nuovo, plasmando una squadra senza debolezze e fautrice di un gioco spumeggiante e vincente, binomio fino a quel momento sconosciuto. Nacque così il famoso "calcio totale ".

From the tactical point of view theoretically Ajax to field a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-4. Theoretically. The eleven players on the field move like crazy swirling for 90 minutes, exceeding the design tasks the player with "stuck". Players attack the spaces and the ball carrier opponents as angry. The game proposed by Michel and airy and then voted to attack: the ball carrier always have at least 3-4 free companions, and playing without the team does not propose a fixed position reference points of their opponents, often creating confusion. The defense is very high and also the goalkeeper role notoriously susceptible changes in Dutch total football played several feet over the goal line, becoming almost a free role. The only two players less "mobile" is the director and one of the central defense.
Obviously, a similar type of game requires great athletic means : the middle distance applied to football. Rinus Michels before, and then inventing Kovacs very hard physical training, aimed at increasing physical endurance of the players, leaving out - at least in part - the mere technical aspect.

In those five years glorious Ajax is a showcase to the world and also showcases talents: the first is of course on all Johan Cruijff , one of the best players ever. Johan is a so-called "center-switching", an attacker can face multimillion over the offensive, pointing out also its extraordinary qualities of man teams.
Player fast, imaginative, and assistman man team, Cruijff is certainly one of the best interpreters of this type of game. If Johan is the spearhead of this team should not be underestimated the role played by another teammate, or Johan Neeskens . These, more than any other player, probably more than Cruijff, personified the players 'total' proposed dall'Ajax. Born as a defensive midfielder but able to pull in every role, is the prototype player of the modern multi-faceted and eclectic: he can play anywhere from center back to furthest point. Neeskens had everything: physical media, in particular, extraordinary stamina, vision, great shot from outside, time for inserts and willingness to sacrifice as few players in the history of the sport.

Other important players were Velibor Vasovic, strong defender and the first foreign captain in the history of Ajax, the other talented defender Rijnders, the rapid Suurbier right-back, the left wing Piet Keizer, fast player and the considerable technical resources, Arie Haan, director of the team, and, finally, Ruud Krol, left back and free from large technical and physical, rightly considered one of the strongest defenders of the Dutch ever.

The cycle ended with the departure of Ajax, Barcelona target, the two players most representative: Neeskens and Captain Cruijff. In these five years, Ajax won three national championships and three Dutch Cups, three Champions Cups in a row and one Intercontinental Cup.

Formation :

Freshly Squeezed, Sarah Hendy

the way back

The return route takes you up at home. E ' different from the first leg: not simply the opposite direction that you think you know so well. Rather, it is a wide road transport on it because what you have been able to find, live, what you gave. For this reason it requires you to mark time, to remember. Why it is like a river that draws and retains only that which meets the heavy material, everything else, the futile passes and disappears making the go-ahead for another way.
The way back says a recent past of which you still feel the smell, the sounds you recognize. Did not switch off the sun's image already on the last next sunrise warms the new rays. A race against time, an hourglass pours. On the way back there is nothing new, everything becomes rather buy new shapes and new colors. And you feel of being changed, and hopes to find better. A chance to return to their own or a new beginning to move away forever.
The way back is like a mosaic in which each card contains the essence of the final design. Of each fragment can not help it because that would appear as tiny vacuum created hole in the eyes of attentive. E 'image without boundaries that act as free and sizes, depending on the infused passion, the courage, sweat dripped, fatigue consumed during the entire journey.
The way back is a journey in the company, gives you the privilege to hear from you if you believed in team mates. So you forget the way a shy and consumed in solitude formal, vaguely suspicious. A game of greed and extreme generosity in which you can get, conscious of having to give all of yourself. Only now recognize faces by giving them a name, the memory of a specific phrase or fact. Some already feel the lack of other perceive the perennial absence.
The return route takes you through the silence that speaks to the heart and tells the whole trip just completed. As a seemingly barren piece of desert where you know you can find an oasis and guidance. It 's the exact distance between past and future. The map that you are able to interpret for the discovery of unresolved ol'enigma treasure that has haunted the nights. The thread on which the balance left to drain the steps to shorten the distance between itself and the void.
The way back is long and slow and give support to enjoy the taste of melancholy. Horizon on the future which confirms the absence of a single arrival. Therefore it is itself a new departure towards a goal, project, or simply a direction to guide the curiosity of all time, what makes us move on and stop if not impatient for change bag.
the way back, looking for God, not the end of the journey but approaching a stage.
