Peru 1 - 0 Korea Republic

Peru defeated Korea Republic in the stadium of Suwon by one goal scored by Bazalar in the 29th minute. There were 5 yellow cards which involved 3 players from Korea Republic and 2 from Peru but that is not the only color of card that was seen in that game. A player from Korea Republic got sent to the showers by committing a foul against Reimond Manco. Watch out for him in upcoming matches.
It was a nice game and I am personally happy because Peru won.

David Beckham's First LA Galaxy Goal

That's right David Beckham scored his first goal in LA Galaxy in the Semifinals of the Super League against D.C. United, it was also his first goal in the MLS (Major League Soccer).It was a free kick after a hand ball by D.C. United's number 18. The goal was scored from 25 yards in the 27th minute of the game. David Beckham is completing the task of making people from the USA more attracted to football (soccer).

Claudio Pizarro

The Peruvian striker scored his first goal with Chelsea on Sunday against Birmingham.
Chelsea was down by one in the 15th minute of the game with a goal by Forssell, but then Claudio Pizarro made his first goal in the English Premier League which meant it was 1 - 1. Maloudá scored in the 31th minute to give Chelsea a partial victory but then Birmingham tied in the 36th minute by a goal by Kapo. In the 50th minute Essien scored to give Chelsea the victory.

I'm Very happy that Claudio Pizarro has scored his first goal on the EPL and I'm sure he will score many more. Best of wishes
