It’s stupid and arbitrary and OF COURSE I wouldn’t have wanted Real Sociedad to let them win but I feel awful for L’Estartit getting relegated. It just sucks, so hard. All the other teams going down knew it was coming, but L’Estartit lost and Lagunak won on the very last day. Come back soon, girls. Keep up the record of excellence in women’s football in Catalunya.
…Kelly is bringing Alex a picnic lunch. I don’t even know what to do with all these feelings.
Reblogging since my sister texted me with the explanation “That Kelly Smith/Alex Scott thing is the equivalent of Steven Gerrard bringing Wayne Rooney a picnic”.
Making a pact with myself (and Lorna and Jim) to follow women’s football better next season (and the youth teams!)
to be honest it’s more like the David Beckham stress-cooks for Gaz Neville thing. (because Gerrard and Rooney are on rival club teams and only together for internationals whereas Kelly and Alex have been traipsing around the world together for years!) /pedant
I will do a proper primer on these two soon, I swear!
Quiero dedicarle el título a mis padres por su apoyo incondicional; a mi hermana Andrea por ser lo más importante que tengo; a mis abuelos, que estén donde estén los llevo en el corazón; a todas esas personas que semana tras semanas han apostado por nosotras; a mi mejor amigo Jesús porque siempre tiene una sonrisa que ofrecerme; y a todos aquellos que hacen que crezca día tras día y no sólo como futbolista.
I want to dedicate the title to my parents for their unconditional support; to my sister Andrea for being the most important thing I have; to my grandparents, who I carry in my heart wherever they are; to all the people who have bet on us, week after week; to my best friend Jesús, because he always has a smile to offer me; and to all the people who day by day have helped me grow, and not only as a footballer.

I just thought this was really cute. Unclear whether “mi mejor amigo Jesús” is the boyfriend or the best gay but they’re adorable on twitter together. He’s a madridista but he comes to the Barça ladies’ games to cheer for her and he teases her teammates every once in a while as well.
I need to see the Avengers again.

also, lest they feel left out in this massive outpouring of love and congratulations for the A and Juvenil-Cadete teams, Barça Femenino B finished fourth in their division of the Segunda, the highest of any B team in a competitive group that also included the junior teams of Espanyol and Sant Gabriel. Levante Las Planas, the team that won the league, also won the play-off and has been promoted to the first division (along with Sevilla). finishing that well is an accomplishment in and of itself! congratulations, girls!
in all honesty I never thought I’d see women’s football on the splash page of the official Barcelona site. all I can say is that I hope the club will prove they deserve this wonderful team and consistently treat them like they matter.
FC Barcelona were proclaimed champions of the Primera División Femenino Juvenil Cadete following a 2-0 home win over Vic. With one match-day remaining, they have won twenty-seven games, drawn once and lost once and hold the best offensive and defensive record in the league, with 148 goals scored and 21 conceded.
Femenino Juvenil-Cadete campeonas!
