Totally Useless Trivia


The coach of FC Barcelona, Josep Guardiola, who led Barcelona in 2009 into becoming the first club ever to win 6 out of 6 championships in one season, used to be a player in Barcelona and later in some shitty clubs like Al-Ahli in Qatar.

While playing in Al-Ahli, Al-Ahli faced Jordanian club Al-Hussain Irbid in the Arabian Champions League in 2005.

Al-Ahli won 3-0, and Guardiola scored the 3rd goal from a penalty kick.

So, Guardiola played against a Jordanian team and scored a goal against us, which makes ecstatic. I guess this makes me a football masochist.

Oh, I can't believe my ears! Guardiola scored on Hussein Irbid!

So now, we have to hope for Messi, if we stay positive, it just might happen.

Earlier in June this year when I was visiting FCB, There was this huge hall with synchronized big screens (wall down) playing a video featuring best moments of the club history.

It ends with this guy's (Trivia) scene as he tears (for winning what u just talked about) and his face comes on one screen after the other slowly. It was really touching, and I don't know it just stayed in my mind.

felt like sharing!

enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you
hire out a developer to create your theme?
Outstanding work!
