The International Challenge Cup is underway in and around the United States.
It brings Roma, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Liverpool, and a few others together in a meaningless trophy tournament that has a very big beer sponsor attached to give it some kind of legitimacy.
Today, Roma was flailing against Manchester United when Miralem Pjanic decided to launch from the Nebraska side of the boundary- and this happened...
Roma lost 3-2 after the Pjanic goal gave Roma some confidence, but the Van Gaal Effect is well underway.

Balotelli Jousts With TV Guys After Sub And Loss
((HT: SkySports Italy))
The HQ warns you, the exchange is in Italian...
But the bottom line is that Mario Balotelli wasn't going to take any criticism lightly...
AC Milan lost to Roma 2-0 and the hosts decided that they were going after Balotelli for lack of movement and pressed on his exchange with manager Clarence Seedorf when he was taken off in the 69th minute...
The translation from the Canadian Press:
Balotelli said: "When Milan wins Mario is great, when it loses Mario is bad."
Told by one studio host that he doesn't move enough on the pitch, Balotelli responded: "You don't know anything about football. Trust me."
Balotelli even took to his 2.5-million Twitter followers to talk about it:
"Mamma mia divido l Italia in 2! Però! Mentre quasi tutto l Estero è unito con me! What a strange game:-)"
("Mamma mia I divide Italy in 2! Wow! While nearly everyone abroad is united with me!")
Nothing changes with enigmas, does it...???

Racist Chants Stop Serie A Match... For A While...
((HT: RAI))
AS Roma and AC Milan were playing a, somewhat, uninspired draw in Serie A Sunday when the referee decided that enough was enough... and it had nothing to do with the play on the pitch.
There's a new rule on the books that says the ref can call a match if he feels that things are out of control, and he can stop play. And allegedly racist taunts were a reason to do it...
Sulley Muntari was sent off for what happened below...
And Totti was sent off for "something" in stoppage time...
Milan will have to wait for the last day of the season to figure out if they're gonna make Champions League or not...
