^It's in Spanish. :(

 

This video is also in Spanish. Iker Casillas and Andrés Iniesta talk with random strangers on the street and treat them as if they were celebrities and ask for their autographs. I don't exactly know what they are saying, but the reactions are pretty funny.

^ Portuguese. ;) "Ganhe da própria sombra!" means "Beat Your Own Shadow" (literally: "Win against your own shadow!")

 

And thanks for sharing the Casillas/Iniesta vid. Hilarious. :lol:

I always forget about that. :(

^ Both players are Brazilian. In other news -- American Exports: Jones, Schalke solidify Ch. Lge. spot:

AMSTERDAM — Several Americans crossed the line over the pond on Sunday, with Jermaine Jones and Schalke solidifying their hold on the fourth Champions League slot with a 3-1 win over visiting Hamburg.

 

The US midfielder was quite active on the day, going close to scoring twice and picking up a yellow card for the eighth time in nine Bundesliga games. By winning for the 10th time in a 12-game home unbeaten run, Schalke pushed their lead in the race for fourth to seven points.

 

Elsewhere, road woes continued for Steve Cherundolo's Hannover 96 in a 3-0 defeat at nearby rivals Werder Bremen. Though not to blame on any of the goals, the American missed out on a chance to skipper his side into a Europa League place for the third week in a row.

 

Next door in the Eredivisie, Jozy Altidore worked a quiet 65 minutes as a rather listless AZ Alkmaar reclaimed the perch with a patient 2-0 win at lowly De Graafschap. Despite a less than textbook effort, the Cheese Farmers posted their first clean sheet win in league play for a month to go three points up at the top.
