As if that were not enough, also appears the name of Sandro Rosell .According to researchers, the Andorran company that performed the operation, Bon Us SL, was linked to a friend of the former president of Barca, exconsejero Andorran Finance Joan Besolí , who was a member of Rosell in the Andorran company counts SL, which was the he processed the residence permit Ricardo Teixeira in the Principality. The president of the Brazilian Football Confederation would have paid half a million euros to complete all the paperwork.

Atletico allows the escape PSV

The Champions League is not an easy tournament for Atletico, who let out alive PSV Eindhoven in a game that clearly dominated, especially in a second half in which he enjoyed numerical superiority. The 0-0 is a troubling result because the Dutch somewhat at the Calderon Simeone forces to search the trunk of lost goals. Impeccable in defense, in attack this team needs a few hours of couch. It is what it is. And it is a problem.
Yesterday rojiblanco of blue- went to press high up, plugged from minute one, causing damage to some given the preciousness rival. With command of the match , looked combinations patients, all homologable allowed for a hard grass but too long at the back of the defenses balls : Juanfran first to Griezmann, after Gabi to Vietto; Argentina striker planted in a through ball, he caught the ball and Bruma him out when barreled into the net. In the first dangerous approach of local, Locadia dropped into the box and the referee did not buy the maneuver.
To 20 minutes, PSV took the air duel. Guardado began to appear in the path of the ball , good news for his family, although the Dutch waves sometimes not congealed. The resource centers to the area caused no problems Godin Savic -Simeone specialists and increasingly relies on the Montenegrin Central, which gradually has equaled its competition with Giménez-. After a few minutes of news, the balance was about to becomeunbalanced. Koke launched Griezmann, who inexplicably missed a dogfight with Zoet . In reply, I trompicado Pereiro appeared in the area and the ball came to Propper, who finished from close range for Oblak was brilliant.
This PSV led by exazulgrana Phillip Cocu is actually a hybrid that he notices the character of his American players , present in all lines: the impetuous Colombian Arias on the right side; Moreno Mexican -in the center of the defence- and Guardado -capataz of medullary, and Pereiro Uruguayan turned to the kitchen of opposites.

Expulsion of Pereiro

The Madrid returned after the break with renewed impetus, trying to collect advantage. The party entered a stage of rapid football, with Vietto and Griezmann ready to jostling for position . The Frenchman has dropped several rungs in recent weeks after a beginning of spectacular season: collides with few defenses before taunted and is chastised with the goal.However, the Cholo preferred to switch to Vietto by Torres for the last half hour of the meeting.
Koke, another that is below their level , made ​​a clearance that took shape shot into his own net. At the other end , Godin headed on goal, but climbed on the back of Moreno and the action was canceled. The Uruguayan was the protagonist of the action that could have changed the match: he jumped for the ball and his compatriot Pereiro jumped him. The referee took out the second yellow card.
PSV began to run out of his praetorian guard with Spanish accent, becauseGuardado was replaced and the supporters dismissed him with the Mexican classic "Cielito Lindo" ( "Ay, ay, ay, ay, sing and do not cry ...").Simeone became clear that the tie could be solved taking advantage of the numerical inferiority and fatigue rival. He called Correa to invent something at short distances. He tried without success, like all his peers.
