CLEAR Dream Match Football- Live Streaming Online

Watch the CLEAR Dream Match Football- Live Streaming Online! Clear Dream Match Football Clinic Livestreaming right now at http://interaktv.ph/clearfootballclinic/ watch now!

Inspired by Steve Nash’s annual Showdown in Chinatown, the match will also feature all-star players like members of the Philippine Azkals, talents from the United Football League (UFL), and some of the nation’s top collegiate players. For added star power, noted celebrities who also play football will also participate in the match.
If I remember it well, there were talks after the friendly with CF Inter de Madrid that the organizers might consider bringing the Real Madrid reserve team (I'm not sure if it's the B-team a.k.a. RM Castilla or the C-team) to the Philippines for a friendly. If this "Clear Dream Cup" is in anyway related to this, I'm considering my thought that CR7 and some of the non-Europeans of RM might come over here with them. Kaká and Higuain, anyone?

Pel� Brazilian football Player

Edson Arantes do Nascimento KBE (name given as Edison on birth certificate, born 21 October 1940 (however, Pel� himself claims that he was born in 23 October), known by his nickname Pel� (Brazilian Portuguese pronunciation: [pe'l?]), is a retired Brazilian footballer. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest football players of all time.

In 1999, he was voted Football Player of the Century by the IFFHS International Federation of Football History and Statistics. In the same year French weekly magazine France-Football consulted their former "Ballon D'Or" winners to elect the Football Player of the Century. Pel� came in first position. In 1999 the International Olympic Committee named Pel� the "Athlete of the Century". In his career he scored 760 official goals, 541 in league championships, making him the top scorer of all time. In total Pel� scored 1281 goals in 1363 games.

In his native Brazil, Pel� is hailed as a national hero. He is known for his accomplishments and contributions to the game of football.[20] He is also acknowledged for his vocal support of policies to improve the social conditions of the poor (when he scored his 1,000th goal he dedicated it to the poor children of Brazil). During his career, he became known as "The King of Football" (O Rei do Futebol), "The King Pel�" (O Rei Pel�) or simply "The King" (O Rei).

On 21 February 1966, Pel� married Rosemeri dos Reis Cholbi. He has two daughters Kelly Cristina (13 January 1967)who married Dr. Arthur DeLuca, and Jennifer (1978) as well as a son Edson ("Edinho" � little Edson, 27 August 1970). The couple divorced in 1982. From 1981 to 1986,

Pel� had been romantically linked with Xuxa and was seen influential in launching the career of the model who was 17 when they started to date.[93] In April 1994 Pel� married psychologist and gospel singer Ass�ria Lemos Seixas, who gave birth on 28 September 1996 to twins Joshua and Celeste through fertility treatments. They are now separated.

In 2005, Pel� received a lifetime achievement award from the BBC and in June 2006, helped inaugurate the 2006 FIFA World Cup finals, alongside supermodel Claudia Schiffer. Pel� also produced an international ad campaign for drug company Pfizer to promote Viagra and raise world awareness of erectile dysfunction.

Pel� was guest of honour at the world's oldest football club, Sheffield's 150th anniversary match v Inter Milan in November 2007. Inter won 5�2 in front of an appreciative crowd of nearly 19,000 at Bramall Lane. As part of his visit, Pel� opened an exhibition which included the first public showing in 40 years of the original hand written rules of football.

In 2009, he cooperated with Ubisoft on arcade football game Academy of Champions: Soccer for the Wii and also appeared in the game as a coach to its players.

On 1 August 2010, Pel� was introduced as the Honorary President of a revived New York Cosmos (2010), aiming to field a team in Major League Soccer. On 3 August 2011, it was reported that Santos were considering bringing him out of retirement for a cameo role in the 2011 FIFA Club World Cup.

Cam Newton American Football Quarterback Player

Cameron Jerrell "Cam" Newton (born May 11, 1989) is an American football quarterback for the Carolina Panthers of the National Football League (NFL). He was drafted as the first overall pick by the Panthers in the 2011 NFL Draft, becoming the third player to win the Heisman Trophy, a national championship, and be the first overall pick in the NFL draft all in the same one-year span, joining Leon Hart (1950), and Angelo Bertelli (1944). He played college football for the Auburn Tigers.

Newton is the son of Cecil Newton, Sr., who was cut as a safety from the pre-season rosters of the 1983 Dallas Cowboys and 1984 Buffalo Bills. And he is the younger brother of Cecil Newton, Jr., a center who currently plays for the Baltimore Ravens.

Newton was initially a member of the Florida Gators before transferring to Blinn College, where his team won a national junior college football championship. Newton was then recruited by head coach Gene Chizik of Auburn University and transferred once more. He became just the third player in major college football history to both rush and pass for 20 or more touchdowns in a single season.

His performance earned him the Heisman Trophy as the most outstanding college football player, and he led Auburn to their second national championship in school history, despite a major controversy concerning his eligibility that embroiled the second half of the season. In his NFL debut, Newton became the first rookie quarterback in NFL history to throw for 400 yards in his NFL regular-season opener, breaking Peyton Manning's rookie record.

Newton was born in Savannah, Georgia to parents Cecil and Jackie Newton. He grew up in College Park, Georgia. He attended Westlake High School in Atlanta, Georgia, where he starred in football and basketball.[8] Former Westlake football coach Dallas Allen started hearing about Newton's throwing ability and the freshman coaches told Allen that Newton needed to be moved from the freshman team to the varsity.

The freshman coaches eventually persuaded Allen to attend a Thursday night game, where he was impressed by Newton's arm and pocket presence and moved him up to varsity for the playoffs. In his sophomore year, the team's starting quarterback broke his finger and in his first game, Newton and his center, brother Cecil Jr., fumbled a snap late in the game that the other team recovered and ran out the clock. When the team's starting quarterback was healthy again, Newton returned as the back-up quarterback.

On December 4, 2010 Newton led the Tigers to an SEC Championship, their first since 2004, by defeating South Carolina once again 56�17, which set an SEC Championship Game record for most points scored and largest margin of victory. Newton was named the game MVP after scoring a career-best six touchdowns (four passing and two rushing).

With his performance, Newton also became the third player in NCAA FBS history to throw and run for 20-plus touchdowns in a single season (along with former Florida teammate Tim Tebow and Colin Kaepernick, who reached the milestone earlier the same day). Newton was named the 2010 SEC Offensive Player of the Year as well as the 2010 AP Player of the Year. He was also one of four finalists for the 2010 Heisman Trophy, which he won in a landslide victory. He is the third Auburn player to win the Heisman Trophy.

Following the victory in the SEC Championship, Auburn was invited to participate in the school's first BCS National Championship Game. The game took place on January 10, 2011 in Glendale, Arizona, with Auburn playing against the Oregon Ducks. In a game that was expected to score as high as 60�55 by Steve Spurrier, Auburn beat Oregon just 22 to 19 to win the BCS National Championship. Newton threw for 262 yards 2 touchdowns and one interception. He also ran the ball 22 times for 65 yards, though he lost a fumble that later allowed Oregon to tie the game with limited time remaining.
