The second matchday of Serie A was exciting, that's pretty much the only way to describe it. It was full of upsets, goals, and action. At the top of the table you have Chievo in first place with six points, at the bottom you have Udinese last with zero points, and Roma second last with […]

Veteran midfielder Michael Ballack is set to miss six weeks of action due to a fractured tibia after a knock he took during Bayer Leverkusen's match against Hannover this weekend.

We have now seen Liverpool play a few times under Roy Hodgson and the most surprising thing about their season so far is how familiar it all feels.

Sunday's Bundesliga matches saw both Bundesliga new boys, Kaiserslaturern and St. Pauli, lose out away from home. Kaiserslautern travelled to Mainz, while Koln host St. Pauli. Kaiserslautern have been impressive during their first couple of Bundesliga games, especially during their 2-0 win against Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.
