NOVAK DJOKOVIC IS HOT!!!!

Congrats to Novak Djokovic who beat Spanish hottie Rafael Nadal at the Australian Open.

The epic game was the the longest Grand Slam singles final ever — 5 hours 53 minutes. The best part about the win was when Novak took his shirt off and started flexing like Hulk Hogan. Last time I checked, it’s tennis not WWE.

LIONEL MESSI DISCUSSED HIS RIVALRY WITH C. RONALDO

On whether his rivalry with Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo makes him a better player:
I don’t think so. I never really fixated on him, or compared myself with another player. My mentality is just to achieve more each year, to grow both as an individual and as a team, and if he wasn’t there, I’d be doing the same thing.


On what he thinks of Ronaldo:
I think he’s a good person. I think he’s a good player, who brings a lot to Madrid, and who, in any moment, can decide a game.

Copa Del Rey 2012: Real Madrid v Barcelona match result

Real Madrid 1 - Barcelona 2

Eric Abidal proved an unlikely matchwinner as Barcelona came from behind to beat Real Madrid in the first leg of their Copa del Rey quarter-final a the Bernabeu.

Cristiano Ronaldo answered his critics for his poor performance against Barcelona last month by scoring the opener after 11 minutes, picking up Karim Benzema's pass before driving past Gerard Pique and firing low past Jose Manuel Pinto.

Barcelona took control for the rest of the first period but could not find a way through as Alexis Sanchez's header came back off the post and Andres Iniesta fired wide when well-placed inside the area.

But four minutes into the second half they were level as Carles Puyol headed home Xavi's corner.

Iniesta and Benzema then saw efforts come back off the bar and post respectively before Abidal, who yesterday signed a one-year contract extension, latched on to Lionel Messi's excellent ball over the top to prod past Iker Casillas and score only his second goal in five seasons at the club.
