What a beauty of a goal it was – when Gareth Bale’s crack of a strike in the 60^th minute brought Real Madrid’s lead against Juventus to 2-1 in the Champions League last night, it probably would have been just too perfect if it had ended that way. The final score of the Group B match ended with a 2-2 draw, and though both teams would have preferred a win, especially Juventus, within the last few minutes it was clear that both sides were content with just 1 point.

Manchester United have been going through a few changes this season – yes, changes, that’s a good word to describe it. Currently sitting 8^th in the Premier League table, United are really feeling the loss of Sir Alex Ferguson. Last season they were kings, this season, well, it’s a bit of a dull roar right now. However, one thing that has remained the same since last season is Javier Hernandez’s struggle to find his place at the club.

A few months ago if I was asked to choose a few words to describe Luis Suarez, I guarantee that a majority of them would be quite vulgar. I was already was on the fence about him prior to the day of his afternoon Branislav Ivanovic snack, and that proved the final straw. I could not take his negative attitude any longer and I jumped on the bandwagon of Suarez-haters. However, once upon a time, I didn’t hate him, and slowly he’s starting to make his way back into my good graces.
