		Perhaps the goal was an alarm call, Wales didn't quite seem to have the tenacity in midfield that they had in Helsinki, the suspension of Robbie Savage was perhaps crucial in that respect, but in the last 10 minutes Wales started to look threatening.
		Wales attempted to utilize the pace of Earnshaw and Giggs, but the attacks broke down quickly.
		Hartson is an excellent team player and held the ball up well as always, but perhaps fortunately for Finland looked a little short of match fitness and mobility on this occasion.

		Nacho Quereda was not an obvious choice for head coach of the women's national team when first approached by the Royal Spanish Football in the late eighties.

		Quereda argues that if football can have legions of women fans, then there is no reason why it cannot have women players as well.

		Yesterday the Competition Committee of the Spanish Football Federation decided to fine Luis Aragones, trainer of Spain's national football team, 3000 euros for the racist comments he made about Tierry Henry in the lead up to the last match between Spain and England.
		Aragonés referred to Henry, the Arsenal team mate of Spanish footballer Reyes as "that black shit".
		The fine will be considered by many to be a long overdue and surprisingly small recognition of the offensive and damaging nature of the Spanish trainer's original comments which were recorded by Spanish television and broadcast around the world.

		"The Spanish FA were responding to a letter of complaint from the FA, expressing their condemnation of the abuse suffered by the England players.
		Tonight is a first opportunity for the Spanish to prove that they are not represented by those who launched into monkey chants on Wednesday night, to repair their damaged reputation - something that was reflected in the fact that the Spanish Football Federation, previously so stupidly stubborn, has finally apologised.
		The English, they said, did not understand the national coach, a man famous for a long catalogue of increasingly bizarre behaviour, like attacking Samuel Eto'o on the bench, or losing his false teeth barking orders at his team.
