    El Partido contra la Pobreza del PNUD recauda 370 000 euros para los esfuerzos de recuperación tras el Ebola Ginebra / St-Etienne 26 de mayo de 2015 – el XII Partido contra la Pobreza disputado el pasado mes de abril en St. Etienne (Francia) que acogió a 33.913 espectadores, recaudó 370 000 euros para ayudar a las naciones de África Occidental a recuperarse de la crisis del virus del Ébola. Así se ha anunciado tras reunir todos los ingresos obtenidos de la venta de billetes, los derechos de difusión y el patrocinio del evento del 20 de abril. Dos terceras partes de la recaudación se destinarán a ayudar a los esfuerzos de recuperación de los países más afectados por la epidemia —Guinea, Liberia y Sierra Leona— mientras que la Asociación del club, ASSE Coeur-Vert, que impulsa proyectos sociales en Saint-Etienne, recibirá el tercio restante. "Con el trabajo en equipo y la solidaridad, el poder del juego global puede ayudar al esfuerzo por combatir una de las enfermedades más devastadoras de los últimos tiempos” dijo Gina Casar, Secretaria General Adjunta y Administradora Asociada del PNUD. “Los países afectados siguen necesitando el apoyo de la comunidad internacional para llegar a cero casos de Ébola, mantenerlos al cero y avanzar en el camino a la recuperación ”. Más de 20.000 personas han perdido la vida por esta enfermedad mortal y el brote ha causado una extensa crisis socio-económica de proporciones sin precedentes, con un riesgo real de que los progresos económicos y sociales alcanzados en los tres países pudieran frenarse o incluso invertirse.

  • Uefa.Com Users' Team of the Year 2007 Revealed
    Media Release Date: 18/01/2008 Communiqué aux médias No. 006 Medien-Mitteilung uefa.com users’ Team of the Year 2007 revealed AC Milan players rewarded in poll The uefa.com users’ Team of 2007 has been announced, with UEFA Champions League winners AC Milan having the most players in this year’s selection. Over 3.75 million votes were cast by 277,985 individual uefa.com users in the poll. The dream dozen contains just two survivors from last year’s team along with five newcomers. Milan’s trio includes central defender Alessandro Nesta, who was also selected in 2002, 2003 and 2004, and left midfield player Clarence Seedorf, who also appeared in the 2002 team. Colleague Kaká with 220,333 votes received the highest number of votes overall and is selected for a second successive year, this time as attacking midfielder. Also surviving from last year’s team is Steven Gerrard, who is selected for a third time, and is the only player from beaten UEFA Champions League finalists Liverpool FC to feature. English clubs are to the fore, though, with John Terry – selected in 2005 – and newcomer Didier Drogba from Chelsea FC joined by Cristiano Ronaldo, whose previous selection came in 2004. His Manchester United FC coach Sir Alex Ferguson is perhaps belatedly selected for the first time, recognition of his achievement in guiding his team a ninth Premier League title under his stewardship. Another somewhat belated newcomer is Real Madrid CF goalkeeper Iker Casillas, while Sevilla FC right-back Daniel Alves, FC Barcelona left-back Eric Abidal and FC Internazionale Milano striker Zlatan Ibrahimović are also selected for the first time.

Just one year ago the Netherlands advanced to the FIFA World Cup final in South Africa. Wesley Sneijder, Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie are the names of the current stars of the national team. They are the successors of stars from the past football legends like Johan Cruijff, Marco van Basten, Ruud Gullit and Dennis Bergkamp. Wim van Zwam has been working as coach for the Dutch football association KNVB for almost ten years. Currently he is coach of the Under 19 team, responsible for the development of the youth plan Netherlands and instructor of the UEFA Pro Course. "We don't have any secrets, we just have a clear vision about how to develop football," he told Xinhua on Wednesday. "We have a vision on the game of football, the organization of youth leagues, on coach education, on player development and on team development. Very few countries have a real vision on football. That's why we are ahead of a lot of other countries." "We are good because of the structure and because of the way we think as a country. We always stick to our plan in developing football. From the Under 15 team to the Under 21's. The aim of the game must always be winning, even for the Under 8 kids," Van Zwam explained.

  • MANCHESTER UNITED FC V AC MILAN
    First Knock-out Round First Leg Manchester 23 February 2005 MANCHESTER UNITED FC - AC MILAN OLD TRAFFORD, MANCHESTER WEDNESDAY 23 FEBRUARY 2005 at 19.45 UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FIRST KNOCK-OUT ROUND, FIRST LEG MANCHESTER UNITED FC v AC MILAN UEFA Champions League football returns to Old Trafford for the first time in 2005 with a thrilling clash between two former champions of Europe in one of the many ties that coiuld easily have been this season’s final. United fans will remember that their team produced epic performances against Italian opposition en route to the 1999 final, whereas AC Milan’s encounters with English opposition are surprisingly thin on the ground. They have played against English teams only three times in the last quarter of a century and have not met any English sides since they were drawn against both Chelsea FC and Leeds United AFC in the 2000/01 campaign. A thrilling and evenly-balanced tie is in prospect. This will be the third tie between the clubs in UEFA competitions with AC Milan successful on the previous two occasions, both in the Champion Clubs’ Cup semi-finals. Though Manchester United won both games at Old Trafford, the margin of AC Milan’s wins in Italy in the 1957/58 and 1968/69 seasons enabled them to progress. The clubs’ first meeting was the first European game after the Munich air crash, while the latter win eliminated the holders of the competition. In the 1957/58 tie, Paolo Maldini’s father Cesare took part in the game, and in 1968/69 Fabio Cudicini, father of the Chelsea FC player, was AC Milan’s keeper.
