About Me

Greetings,
I am Nick, and I am an avid soccer fan who has a passion for writing. I have created this blog to collate my thoughts and opinions on a variety of soccer related topics. I aim to produce quality pieces surrounding events that arise in the soccer world. I love to discuss my passion with others, and hope to inform, inspire, and entertain.
A little about me; I am a college student from Texas, and have played soccer for around 15 years. I have had the opportunity to play not only in the US, but in Europe too. This has allowed me to learn a variety of different playing styles, and gave me the chance to play with players from all different walks of life. I believe that I have valid insight into the beautiful game, and one day hope to to report professionally for a news organization.
I will do my best to keep posts frequent and insightful. If you enjoy my writing style, please share this blog with others so that I can try and build an audience to share my words with. If easier, feel free to follow on Twitter, and share my pinned tweet about this blog. I hope y'all have as much fun reading, as I do writing these posts.
Thank you, and God bless.

What We Can Learn From THAT Wayne Rooney Assist

Former Everton and Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has always been a fighter. England’s all time top goal scorer, Rooney has a habit of putting all off-the-pitch drama to one side, and giving 110% in every match he plays, which earned him the accolade for the national team, as well as surpassing legend Bobby Charlton’s goal scoring tally at Old Trafford with 253 goals. This led Rooney to become one of the most formidable forwards the Premier League has ever seen. Now, Rooney plays for another United, this time in Washington D.C. Having scored on his debut, and created a few more assists in his short MLS career so far, Rooney and his teammates took on Orlando City SC last week in what would prove to be a memorable game. To recap, United took the lead twice through Luciano Acosta, only for Orlando to equalize both times; quite a feat for them, who not only have struggled for goals this season, but also had been playing with ten men for much of the second half. Earning a corner

Why Sergio Ramos is not in the wrong at all

In case you’ve been living under a rock over the past few days, the Champions League final last weekend was one for the record books. Real Madrid faced off against Liverpool in Kiev for European club soccer’s most prestigious prize. Madrid were victorious 3-1, largely thanks to a Gareth Bale masterclass, landing the club their third straight title in the competition, a feat last replicated in the 1970s.  Any unbiased soccer fan will tell you that Madrid definitely deserved to win on the day, however the match was marred by a nasty looking injury to Liverpool’s star man Mohamed Salah early in the game. Trying to control the ball to accelerate away from the defender, Salah and Madrid captain Sergio Ramos locked arms and the Spanish defender sent the Egyptian winger to the ground, landing on top of him. Whilst a somewhat clean tackle, the fall was particularly awkward, so much so that Salah actually sprained several muscles in his shoulder, dislocating it in the process. He was forced

What Happened To: Germany?

The World Cup has made a habit in recent time of creating problems for the reigning champions. In 2002, France were eliminated in the group stage, just four years after winning the most prestigious title in the world. In 2010, Italy had an abysmal performance in South Africa, looking a shadow of the team from 2006. In 2014, defending champions Spain were poor, and this time around in Russia, winners from 2014 Germany continued this trend. In a group with Mexico, Sweden, and South Korea, Germany were huge favorites to top the pile, or at the very least, finish second. On Matchday One, they took on El Tri in what was thought of as being the decider of who would finish in first place. Mexico were dominant, and took all three points in the tie. Next up for Die Mannschaft was Sweden, who bested South Korea in their opener. Germany looked much better than they did against Mexico, but still conceded first, and needed a come-from-behind win, with Toni Kroos scoring the winner with the last ki
