    Full time. Porto get a well deserved victory in an entertaining clash.

    Two games tomorrow; Milan-Man U and Celtic-Roma.

    i know its good to see roma loose, but in a way, this tour is ruining the serie a's reputation here, its no wonder there are only man united fans. think about it, chelsea roma 3-0. juve man u 1-4 the english teams are bringing us to shame, and yes they arent exactly going full out to win, but the average soccer fan here doesnt know the difference between say d'agostino and totti (i think)

    Amen, Brother Don. These aren't real matches by any means anyway -- it's just the fluff of pre-season tryouts with a chance to expand the schwag sale market a little on the side. Nothing more.

    I can't wait for the real deal to start -- this Champions World Series garbage depresses me. With the Euro and Copa America over, it looks like it's going to have to be WC qualifiers for any meaningful football until Juve's CL qualifiers.

    Great game by Porto, although they lose some players, they're still a dangerous team.

    I saw ManU-Milan today, Milan looks good with their "never change the winning team" philosophy.

    Last but not least, Celtic 0-1 AS Roma (F.Totti).
    Good game by D'Agostino and the captain.

    Milan really should have lost to ManU. They were outplayed with all of what was mostly their starting squad, while ManU had several key absences and a lot more chances. But that could also be a reflection of their respective fitness levels, given the month difference between the starts of the EPL and Serie A season.

    Celtic-Roma was an entertaining game :) Mexes, D'Agostino and Totti were outstanding for Roma, while McGeady of Celtic seems a promising player.

    Chelsea-Milan is on now and it's 1-1. Gudjohnsen gave the Blues the lead from a Scott Parker free kick and Cafu answered with a sweet volley.

    2-1 Chelski. Lampard swung in a corner and Drogba met the ball with a powerful header after out-jumping Maldini.
