Tour de France comes to Yorkshire

tour de francele de tour france   Le tour of France comes to Yorkshire                                      

                         

 

 

 

It’s one of the most famous bike races in the world. We’re surprised that they did choose Yorkshire but they did and we’re all very excited about it. It is brilliant that this famous race will be passing through Keighley and hope that we’ll be able to see the riders in action.

The tour de France was first organised in 1903. I hope they have lots of water and drive safely also have a great time. We hope nobody cheats as we have been very shocked by the news of previous races being filled with drugs.

The exact route of the The 2014 Tour de France is shown in this video:

Top 5 football players

There are many fantastic footballers in the world. These are the 5 that the media team rate most highly. What do you think? Add your opinion as a comment at the end of this post.

Messi

Ronaldo

Robben

Schneider

Ribery

We think Messi is the worlds best because he helps his team he cooperate and he has good skill. He helps others when he has a good chance he gives it to other people. He has won lots of trophy and he tells his team to work together. That’s why we think he’s number one.

Ronaldo is the worlds second best player because he listens to his manager and when he gets stuck and people block him he knows what to do. He has achieved lots of trophies. Ronaldo is because his team helps him – some teams don’t help each other.

Robben is the third best because he made his team get to the champions league by helping his team his team are in the German league. Every year Robben and his team are in the champions league.

Schneider is the fourth best because he can shoot from long range and he is a free kick specialist and gets past people and scores goals very quickly you can see the speed in him when he runs.

Ribery is the fifth best because he has skill but not good as the other players.One thing that he is good at is he works with his team, he doesn’t argue with other players he has well good skill. The skill that he used against Chelsea in the Champions League final was unbelievable.

Euro 2012 – Final

The European Chamionships held in Ukraine and Poland have come to an end after a historic victory for Spain.

The Euro 2012 final Spain vs Italy was a great game. Spain were playing great but the problem for  Italy was they were not. After Italy were thrashed 4-0 by Spain, most of they’re players were crying. Italy were playing very poor they had less possession and only a few shots and Spain had the total opposite. The 4 Spain goals came from, David Silva scored a header from  a absoultely great cross by Fabregas . The next one was from Jordi Alba with an amazing run, past 4 players, and curled in the bottom corner, and the last two were from 2 Chelsea players Fernando Torres and Juan Mata.

Review of Euro 2012 Final from OLV TV TEAM on Vimeo.

England out of Euros.

England had lost against Italy in the quarter – finals of Euro 2012.

The Italians had lot’s of possession and more shots than England. The experienced player Pirlo had not been marked effectively by the England midfield and he had been giving great balls past the England defence.

Pirlo had completed more passes than the entire England midfield put together!!! England only had a few good chances, when Walcott came on England got better and had a golden chance but it was wasted by Wayne Rooney with a over head kick.

England manager Roy Hodgson says they need to be better in attack next time.

England vs Sweden Review.

England had a great match with a crucial win against Sweden on Friday. England were playing great until Sweden equalised in the second half then scored another, the 2 goals came from Olaf Mel-burg former – Aston Villa player.

 England’s first goal came by a brilliant through – ball from Gerrard to Andy Carrol who found a way to send the ball to the back of the net. The second goal came from Arsenal player Theo Walcott which was a stunner an absolutely great goal which chipped the goalie. The last goal was fantastic Walcott crossed the ball  in and  back Welbeck heeled it and the goalie could not save it and it went in.

England also had great possession and many shots.
