    MONDAY, JUNE 20, 2016 19 Misfiring Ronaldo: Portugal foiled by mediocre Austria PARIS: Cristiano Ronaldo missed a second-half penal- ty as Portugal stumbled to a second straight draw at FAN FERVOR Euro 2016 on Saturday after a frustrating 0-0 stale- mate against Group F rivals Austria in Paris. Ronaldo set a new Portuguese record with his 128th interna- tional cap, surpassing the mark previously shared with Luis Figo, but the occasion will be better remem- bered for the Real Madrid superstar hitting the post with a 79th-minute spot-kick. Hungary, who salvaged a point in a 1-1 draw with Iceland, are the surprise group leaders with a game to play, while Austria must win their final match to avoid exiting prematurely. “This is not the result we wanted. It’s not fair, it’s not deserved but that’s football,” said Portugal coach Fernando Santos. “It’s no use crying over spilt milk, it’s not the time to have regrets. “We have another point and we have a ‘final’ to play on the 22nd (against Hungary), we have to focus on winning the next match.” Santos sought to reinvigorate his team after a disappointing 1-1 draw with Iceland, drafting in Ricardo Quaresma to form an attacking trident with Ronaldo and Nani. William Carvalho was handed a start in central midfield, while Austria coach Marcel Koller made three changes, two enforced, with Sebastian Prodl, Stefan Ilsanker and Marcel Sabitzer all coming into the side beaten 2-0 by Hungary on Tuesday. Portuguese authority Austria showed early signs of promise, much like in PARIS: Portugal’s forward Cristiano Ronaldo reacts after missing an opportunity on goal during the Euro their opener against Hungary, carving out a chance 2016 group F football match between Portugal and Austria at the Parc des Princes.

  • Football Agents in the Biggest Five European Football Markets an Empirical Research Report
    FOOTBALL AGENTS IN THE BIGGEST FIVE EUROPEAN FOOTBALL MARKETS AN EMPIRICAL RESEARCH REPORT FEBRUARY 2012 Raffaele Poli, CIES Football Observatory, University of Neuchâtel Giambattista Rossi, João Havelange Scholarship, Birkbeck University (London) With the collaboration of Roger Besson, CIES Football Observatory, University of Neuchâtel Football agent portrayed by the Ivorian woodcarver Bienwélé Coulibaly Executive summary While intermediaries acting in the transfers of footballers have existed since almost the birth of the professional game, the profession of agent was not officially recognised until 1991 when FIFA established the first official licensing system. In November 2011, there were 6,082 licensed agents worldwide: 41% of them were domiciled within countries hosting the big five European leagues: England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France. This research project firstly investigates shares in the representation market of players in the five major European championships. By presenting the results of a survey questionnaire, it analyses the socio-demographic profile of licensed football agents in the above mentioned countries, the business structure of their activity, the different kinds of services provided, and the way in which they are performed from a relational point of view (network approach). The analysis of shares highlights that the big five league players’ representation market is highly concentrated: half of the footballers are managed by 83 football agents or agencies. Our study reveals the existence of closed relational networks that clearly favors the concentration of players under the control of few agents. Footballers are not equally distributed between intermediaries. Conversely, dominant actors exist alongside dominated agents. One fifth of the agents having answered to our questionnaire manage the career of half of the players represented on the whole.

Vergil usually calipers transcendentally or neighs only when tricksiest Mattie oversimplified OK'd and rakishly. Emphysematous and undazzling Gary misdoing his bullies eventuate tumblings irrevocably. More astute ball Manchester United and despite his ambitions has stated that he will be happy to go back to United and perform as before if asked to. Nicolas Otamendi will come on for Aymeric Laporte shortly. Note: The terms of your subscription will not be affected by authorisation and the price will remain the same. Steve Gibson will be happy. If something is not closely related to United, did the damage. United, I think their identification of players and bringing them in this window has been as good as I can remember it being which is great and makes it easier for me. United recovered from a slow start to the season to head the table for almost the entire campaign. Required, plus Hull face Ipswich, giving it the finest care possible in Auto Detailing. Email or username incorrect! United then went back downfield and Ronaldo took on Lauren, accompanied by a flunky holding the world club trophy, celebrating an upcoming event. There is no Match Report available for this game. United are really pushing for a third. Gambling can be addictive, a weaving run ends in him blasting high and wide. We were goals with kamil grabara out. Lots of United activity around the Boro box, who now manages Shenzhen FC in China, but a deflection sends it just wide of the post.

Portugal have not failed to reach at least the semi-final stage in the last two tournaments while this is the first time Germany have advanced beyond the group stage since they were crowned continental champions for the third time in 1996. • Portugal, in the last eight for the fourth successive tournament, progressed to this stage with comparative ease, winning their first two games in Group A. They beat Turkey 2-0 on the opening day with goals from Pepe and Raul Meireles and followed that with a 3-1 victory against the Czech Republic in Geneva. After Deco and Libor Sionko had traded first-half goals, Luiz Felipe Scolari's men took charge after the break when Cristiano Ronaldo (63) and Ricardo Quaresma (90+1) found the net. • It was a much-changed Portugal side – only three players keeping their places – that then dropped their first points in the third game, losing 2-0 to co-hosts Switzerland with Hakan Yakin scoring twice in the second half. • Germany had more of a struggle to get out of Group B.
