Football News - Boot Spotting! - 27/08/09

 

Plenty of goals and plenty of top performances, and after the latest round of matches the final line ups for the Champions League are now known. Check out some of the players and boots that have been spied on pitches across the continent...

MASSIMO DONATI

Wiith all the controversy surrounding the first half Eduardo penalty, Celtic were left visibily deflated as their Champions League dreams faded. Donati, wearing the Nike Tiempo Legend III football boots, scored a sublime away goal that rendered nothing more than a consolation as last night's result means it's the Europa League for Celtic this season.

 

 

ASHLEY YOUNG

It's always dangerous to make conclusions this early on in the season, but Aston Villa's 3-1 win over Liverpool measn the Reds have already lost as many games this season as they did in the whole of 2008/09! SoccerBible pal Ashley Young, wearing the adidas F50i football boots, did a very un-English thing and coolly buried his penalty kick, cementing three points for the visitors and heaping more woe and pressure on Liverpool.

 

 

DAVID BENTLEY

We reported last week that Bentley had switched football boots to the adidas adiPure II's, and the Spurs winger was once again spotted in his new boot choice as he scored one of Tottenham's 5 goals in the Carling Cup against a plucky Doncaster. Could the change of boots help give Bentley the confidence to regain his starting place in the Tottenham side...?

 

 

EMILIANO BONAZZOLI

Italian striker Emiliano Bonazzoli was spotted wearing the very-soon-to-be-released adidas F50i Messi football boots, breaking in his pair even before their namesake gets to use them in the Super Cup this weekend!


 

XABI ALONSO

Real Madrid continued their tradition of the Santiago Bernebeau Cup as the curtain raiser to the new season, and took the opportunity to get their major summer signings some game time. The new Galacticos were out in force as Rosenberg were thumped 4-0. Xabi Alonso - wearing adidas adiPure II football boots - showed Liverpool fans what they were missing with some sublime passing, vision and footwork in the Madrid midfield.
