El joven jugador deslumbró con sus regates y cambios de velocidad en el Mundial Sub-20 y, en la final del 2 de julio pasado ante Nigeria (2-1), fue el autor de los dos goles de su equipo (ambos de penal), que le dieron a Argentina el pentacampeonato de la categoría.
El 'Pulga' Messi, Balón de Oro y máximo goleador del Mundial Sub-20, también es insistentemente mencionado como integrante del plantel albiceleste que jugará el Mundial de Alemania-2006.
El FC Barcelona fijó la cláusula de rescisión del contrato de la nueva estrella del fútbol argentino en 150 millones de euros.
MATCH REPORT: MONACO V REAL BETIS (UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE)
Ante 15.000 espectadores en el estadio Louis II, el Mónaco salió a buscar con todo el resultado tras el 0-1 en Sevilla, pero golpeó primero el Betis con Oliveira. Los de Didier Deschamps no bajaron los brazos y se pusieron en ventaja con dianas de Gerard (33) y Maoulida (63).
Pero la suerte no estaba con ellos: fallaron un penal y en antes del jugadón del segundo gol visitante se perdieron el 3-1. Allí Oliveira (75) metió el golpe de nocaut con una corrida desde la mitad de la cancha, en la que se fue sacando de encima rivales y de zurda definió fuerte y alto para establecer el 2-2.
QUOTES (FIFA WORLD CUP DRAW)
Estamos en una zona muy fuerte, aunque confiamos en lo que podemos dar. Ya habíamos hablado con José (Pekerman) y sabíamos que podíamos tener un sorteo como este. Nuestros rivales son todos de mucho cuidado, aunque muy distintos entre sí: Holanda juega un fútbol muy lindo y vistoso. Serbia y Montenegro también juega muy bien, y cuenta con una gran defensa que apenas recibió un gol en toda la eliminatoria. El último es Costa de Marfil, al que ya hemos visto. Juegan al frente, no se preocupan mucho por defender y tienen un delantero peligrosísimo como (Didier) Drogba.
Translation - English NEWS ITEM: LIONEL MESSI
The youngster dazzled the world with his darting runs and changes of pace at the U-20 World Championship, capping a stunning tournament with two goals from the penalty spot as Argentina beat Nigeria 2-1 in the final to secure the trophy for the fifth time.
The winner of the Golden Ball and top scorer at the tournament, Messi, aka 'The Flea', is being tipped for a place in Pekerman’s squad at next year’s World Cup finals in Germany.
The hottest property in Argentinian football has just put pen to paper on a new contract with his club FC Barcelona featuring a buyout clause worth a cool €150m.
MATCH REPORT: MONACO V REAL BETIS (UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE)
Urged on by 15,000 fans at the Stade Louis II, Monaco came out with all guns blazing following their 0-1 reverse in Seville, but it was Betis who struck first when Oliveira headed home. Didier Deschamps’ men refused to throw in the towel, though, and strikes from Gerard and Maoulida put them ahead on the night.
The French side’s luck was out, however. After missing a penalty, they spurned a gilt-edged chance to make it 3-1 only to see Oliveira land the knockout blow 15 minutes from time. Breaking from the halfway line, the Brazilian striker shrugged off a series of challenges before planting a left-foot drive high into the net to kill off Monaco’s hopes.
QUOTES (FIFA WORLD CUP DRAW)
We're in a really hard group, but we're confident of doing well. We spoke about it before with José (Pekerman) and we knew the draw could turn out like this. Our opponents are all very different, but they'll be tough propositions that's for sure. Holland play very attractive, open football. Serbia and Montenegro are also a good side with a rock solid defence that let in just one goal during qualification. As for Côte d'Ivoire, we've already seen them play. They're very direct, don't seem too bothered about defending and they've got a very dangerous striker in (Didier) Drogba.

Experience
Years of experience: 23. Registered at ProZ.com: Feb 2003.
A full-time freelancer since 2001, I have a wealth of writing and translation experience and expertise in several fields.
Sport: I am currently working with the International Olympic Committee on two major legacy projects – one focusing on the legacy of each Olympic Games of the modern era (since Athens 1896) and another on the legacy of all the venues used at every Games. This work involves making use of IOC research and other sources to write compelling content that brings the various aspects of legacy to life.
I also work on anything and everything from Olympic Games bid files, legal documents and coaching manuals to press releases, player/coach interviews and promotional/marketing material, thriving under pressure to deliver polished content that needs little or no editing.
In helping governing bodies, national federations, organising committees (past and present), leading clubs, media consultancies and games and equipment manufacturers inform and engage their audiences, I have covered nearly every sport, from athletics to archery, football to fencing, and tennis to taekwondo.
Creative: in partnering news agencies, museums, art exhibition organisers, lifestyle magazines and clients in the aerospace and tourism industries, I take press releases, catalogues, articles and newsletters in my source languages and rephrase, restructure and reshape them. The result is a text that flows from top to bottom and resonates with its intended audience.
I also write original sports-related content: interviews, features and reports.
A word on rates: if you're looking for the cheapest option, then please look elsewhere.
