On Saturday, May 16th, we got a preview of the upcoming DFB Pokal final 2015: a Bundesliga match between Wolfsburg and Borussia Dortmund. Carrying both the better league ranking and the home field advantage, Wolfsburg took control of the fixture with a goal at the one-minute mark, and ultimately
pushed toward a 2-1 victory. But will the outcome be similar at the big DFB Cup final, scheduled for the end of May? Or will BVB surprise everyone with a win?
If there's one thing Borussia Dortmund have proven throughout the 2014 2015 football season, it's that they can never be counted out. At the beginning of the New Year, the Black and Yellows were in dead last on the 2014 2015 Bundseliga standings table, facing relegation from the division. However, they've worked their way back up into a respectable top 10 position, and are building the foundation for a better run in 2015 2016. So while the squad might have lost to Wolfsburg on May 16th, that doesn't necessarily - May 26, 2015
If you're a collector of soccer shirts, or just a die-hard follower of all things football, you are sure to notice
a different kit manufacturer logo showing up on jerseys in 2015 2016. Or rather, a logo that has until now been absent from the global football market. In February of this year, New Balance revealed that they would be taking over all kit manufacturing duties from Warrior Sports, yes that's' right all Warrior football shirts rebranded New Balance! New Balance is the parent company of Warrior Sports, so the actual styles of the new shirts probably won't be much different from the old ones. However, the familiar Warrior "W" logo will disappear, to be replaced by New Balance's - May 25, 2015
On June 13th, Lionel Messi and the rest of the players for the Argentina national football team will don the Argentina home jersey 2015 2016 for their first game of the 2015 Copa America. The fixture, a
group stage faceoff with Paraguay, will begin the Argentina soccer team's campaign for a third title in this prestigious South American football event. And based on the country's performance at last year's World Cup, they are the de facto frontrunners to win this year's Copa in Chile. We will assess the Copa America history for Argentina and why they are the favorites to win this year's tournament.
Prepare for all the excitement today, by visiting Soccer Box and picking up a brand new Argentina football shirt. - May 25, 2015
There is no doubt about it now: we are experiencing the golden age of Paris Saint Germain. This year alone, the football club has already clinched the French Ligue 1 title and the Coupe de la Ligue trophy.

With a 1-0 victory over Atletico Madrid on Sunday, May 17th, FC Barcelona clinched their 23rd title in the Spanish La Liga, and their seventh in the past 10 years. The win comes at the end of a season-long battle with Real Madrid, and while much of the credit must go to Barca's trio of offensive greats-Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Luis Suarez-some kudos must also go to manager Luis Enrique. Enrique took over at Camp Nou this season, after Gerardo Martino failed to see the football club to a championship title in 2013 2014. But now the question is being raised about the Barcelona FC manager 2015 - 2016, and specifically who it will be?
Even though Luis Enrique coached Barcelona to La Liga victory in his first year as the team's manager, though, rumors have been swirling for months that he could be sacked at the end of the football season. Enrique, a former standout midfielder at Barca himself, reportedly developed something of a quarrelsome working relationship with Lionel Messi. And - May 24, 2015
Since first donning the Juventus jersey back in 2012, Paul Pogba has had three strong seasons in a row. With 122 appearances and 23 goals scored, the 22-year-old French midfielder has impressive statistics at Juve, and has to be considered one of the most promising young players in the game. He's so promising, in fact, that Paul Pogba transfer rumors are an almost daily news item. Pogba is likely reaching the prime of his career, and a number of other clubs throughout Europe might be interested in paying handsomely to tap into those prime years.
A Strong Season at Juventus
Not that Juventus is going to let Pogba go easily. The young French star has been a strong factor in the club's Italian Serie A victories over the past three years. (Juventus will claim their fourth consecutive Serie A trophy at the end of the month.)
Paul Pogba's season at Juventus has been even more impressive, given the fact that he will have - May 23, 2015
For a significant span of the 2014 2015 football season, Olympique Marseille was leading the way in France's Ligue 1. They ascended to the top spot just six weeks into the campaign, winning 3-0 against Rennes to take the lead. That was the end of September, and the Olympians wouldn't be displaced from the frontrunner position until January. It was a stunning run that had many fans of the club-as well as speculators in the wider football world-wondering if 2014 2015 could be the season to break Marseille's unlucky streak. But it was not to be and PSG ultimately took the title. We look back on the Olympique Marseille Ligue 1 history, and question why they are struggling to win another trophy.

Edinson Cavani transfer gossip is rife, will his time at Paris Saint Germain be cut short this summer? Transfer rumors are swirling with regard to the 28-year-old Uruguayan striker, who just arrived at the Parc des Princes less than two years ago. Cavani has been a core component to PSG's offensive line for the 2013 2014 and 2014 2015 seasons though-particularly in cup and continental play. Losing him would be a major blow to the Parisians, who will likely win their third French Ligue 1 title in a row this year.
Show your support for Cavani-and root for him to stay in Paris-with a new PSG shirt from Soccer Box. With the 2014 2015 season dwindling, this may be your last chance to pick up official merchandise from this year. Luckily, at Soccer Box, we still have both the blue and red home shirt and the traditional white PSG away jersey 2014 2015 in stock. Stop by our online store today to get yours! - May 22, 2015
As celebrations for Chelsea FC's 2014 2015 Premier League title win have rained down in recent weeks, Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho and his division-winning soccer squad have been labeled in an array of different ways. On one end of the spectrum, they're being praised for planning and playing a dynamite season, with plenty of big victories and defining moments. On the other end of the spectrum, they're being criticized for being boring and over-calculating, and for taking much of the joy out the game of football.
Both sides of the argument have their leading voices. Manchester United's Louis van Gaal, who was Mourinho's mentor back in his Barcelona days, has called the Chelsea coach "one of the top managers in the world." Van Gaal has even said that Mourinho has surpassed him in terms of coaching ability.
Former Chelsea manager Ruud Gullit sees things differently, though. He's gone on record calling Mourinho's Chelsea squad boring, stating that the players deserve better, - May 22, 2015
Liverpool FC may not have approached the heights of their 2013 2014 runner-up season in this year's English Premier League, but this weekend, they will have a chance at grabbing at least one consolation prize: the Premier League Golden Glove 2014 - 2015. Indeed, Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet is up for the prize-alongside three other goalkeepers from the Premier League-and the winner of the award will be decided based on who does or does not manage a clean sheet performance this weekend.
To root Mignolet toward the prestigious defense award, stop by Soccer Box today to pick up the latest Liverpool home goalkeeper shirt 2015 2016. The football shirt, which is black with red and white detailing, is one of the first shirt designs from Liverpool's new kit manufacturer, New Balance. In recent years, Warrior has designed the Red's football kits, but New Balance-Warrior's parent company-is taking over those duties for the 2015 2016 season. Based on the look of the stunning 2015/16
