Panathinaikos and Olympiakos were supposed to play in their Athens derby this weekend. But they didn’t play it all. Why not? Because hooligans torched parts of the stadium, that’s why! “Flying Molotov cocktails, more than 30 locations around the ground fire, 57 arrests: The Greek derby between Panathinaikos Athens and Olympiakos Piraeus is to come to serious clashes between hooligans. The match had to be stopped just before the match.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid showed a whole lot of class by wearing shirts to honor Bolton’s Fabrice Muamba (heart attack) and Barca’s Eric Abidal (liver transplant) at their match vs. Malaga on Sunday. So that makes it more difficult to laugh at their draw which kept Barca’s fainter-than-faint La Liga title chances alive. But Dios Mio, Santi Cazorla’s extra-time game-tying strike was nothing short of magnificent.
