The Beautiful Game

Correction: You don’t have to be a football fanatic, be a supporter of the English Premier League club Tottenham Hotspur or–for some of this blog’s readers–care whether the club has African players on its books–they have*–but you will enjoy this piece of animation of English player Gareth Bale’s goals earlier in the club’s Champions League campaign against Inter Milan, the defending champions. Tottenham are through to the quarterfinals after beating another Italian club AC Milan this week.

The animation is by Richard Swarbrick.

* Tottenham has the African players Steven PienaarSebastian Bassong and Benoit Assou-Ekotto under contract.

    Tottenham are through to the quarterfinals after beating AC Milan. Only one goal was scored in the two matches, by Peter Crouch.

    The clip shows Tottenham’s goals in the group stage matches against Inter Milan in October/November 2010.

    Beautiful animation indeed.

    Spurs are playing some alright stuff… I suppose the question is, why would anyone support Spurs when you have the Arsenal next door in North London?
