A ball is round

FA Premier League has entered its second week and things are not going smooth for the BIG FOUR. Arsenal, for example, just lost at Fulham with a heartbraking score, 1-0. Liverpool meanwhile even though they got a win last night, are not going strong and tough as they were predicted before the season started. Chelsea and Man United are predicted to earn easy victories this week but in football, nothing is ever settled before the final whistle. This saying is true, because there are proofs and for example is the 112 seconds sensation in the UEFA Champions League Final 1998/1999. Until the 91st minute and 28 seconds, Manchester united was still trailing but when the clock struck 112 seconds later, it was Manchester united leading 2 goals to one. Only after seconds they took the lead, the referee blew the final whistle and it was a dream season for any team, anywhere, anytime.
Football in the Premier League and football in the Champions league are the same and this saying covers the whole football topic around the world. So, back to the Premier League, how are teams going to do this year? It's a question with an answer to die for. Chelsea and Man United, as the 2 teams who finished highest last year, also have this question on their minds because you practically can predict who's going to win in a match, but you can only predict because there's nothing definite in football.

"A ball is round and it will always be round. Football is never definite and it will always indefinite."

That's the right proverb for football, because by being indefinite, football is interesting and the results can only be decided after the final whistle blows. VIVA FOOTBALL!
