Who will reach the finals for the 2014 2015 UEFA Europa League? Will La Liga veterans Sevilla take the honor, or will it be Italian club Fiorentina? If the first Sevilla V Fiorentina Europa League semifinal match offers any indication, then Spain will have a presence at the upcoming UEL championship match, scheduled for May 27^th. The Red and Whites bested Fiorentina's Lilies 3-0, with a strong performance from midfielder Aleix Vidal paving the way for the victory.

Not that anything is decided just yet. The Lilies will get a chance for payback on May 14^th, when they don the Fiorentina home shirt 2014 2015 for the second semifinal leg. They'll have the home field advantage on their side as they try to earn a spot in their first Europa League final since 1990. However, they will

Last December, in the last game of 2014 for both Atletico Madrid and Athletic Club Bilbao, Madrid's Mattress Makers beat Bilbao's Lions 4-1 to close out the year in strong fashion. Athletic Club had the home field advantage in that December 21^st fixture, but it didn't matter, as Atletico's Antoine Griezmann scored a hat trick in the second half to give his team an easy victory. When the two clubs met again this past weekend, Lions fans were worried that a similar outcome might be in store-especially since the Mattress Makers had the home field advantage this time around. Surprisingly, though, the match ended with the score tied at 0-0, earning Bilbao one point in the 2014 2015 La Liga standings, and further tarnishing Madrid's season. Celebrate the surprising outcome today, with a visit to the Athletic Bilbao shop at Soccer Box!

AC Milan's Sunday, May 3^rd away fixture against Napoli was a bizarre match for both football clubs. Considering Napoli's current position as the fourth-place team in the 2014 2015 Serie A, the Blues were strongly favored to beat AC's Red and Blacks on Sunday. Things became even direr for the Milan away side when defender Mattia De Sciglio earned a red card and exited the fixture within the first minute of play. But AC's back four proved to be remarkably effective throughout the first half and part of the second, blocking Napoli from taking the lead until the 70-minute mark. The game provided a taste of the Red and Blacks of old, and fans of the club can celebrate by picking up a new AC Milan tracksuit.

Unfortunately, the Red and Blacks still picked up a loss in the match. A quick scoring burst late in the game gave Napoli a 3-0 victory-helping to solidify the football club's position in the Serie A's top four. AC Milan, meanwhile, were knocked from 10^th to 11

Chelsea FC might have sealed their 2014 2015 English Premier League title this past weekend, but there are still three games left to be played this season. For Tottenham Hotspur, the outcome of each of those games will be pivotal, with qualification for next year's Europa League hanging in the balance. Unfortunately, the Spurs were set back slightly over the weekend, with a 0-1 at-home loss against Manchester City. The good news is that they will have opportunities to make up for the loss in the coming weeks. Root for the football squad to do just that, with a brand new Spurs kit from Soccer Box.

It's spring and the end of the regular season is approaching, which means it's discount time at the Soccer Box store. Most of our Spurs gear is currently on sale, including the Tottenham Hotspur away jersey 2014 2015 (20% off) and the kids home jersey (15% off).

The Barcelona v Bayern Munich Champions League Semi-Final did not disappoint last night (06/05/15).  Both sides produced an intriguing and engaging battle which really came to life just 13 minutes before the end when two moments of Messi magic all but ended the German champion's hopes of another Champions League final.  Two goals in quick succession from superstar Lionel Messi were followed by an impressively quick counter-attacking goal from Neymar in added time as the game finished 3-0 to the hosts.  Bayern Munich were without star men Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben but produced a tactically astute performance which for the most part stifled the dangerous Barcelona attacking trio of Messi, Suarez and Neymar.  This was of course due to the inside knowledge of Barcelona gleaned by Bayern Munich boss Pep Guardiola during his 4 years in Spain as manager of the Catalan giants.  The Champions League semi-final was Guardiola's first match back at the Nou Camp since

In many ways, the Spanish La Liga is the only major football division left that is still providing excitement and unpredictability. Other leagues are all but foregone conclusions at this point. Chelsea are guaranteed victors in the English Premier League; Bayern Munich are headed toward their third straight title in the German Bundesliga (and their 25^th overall); Juventus will claim the Italian Serie A; PSV Eindhoven will win the Dutch Eredivisie; even the French Ligue 1, which isn't quite decided yet, is strongly expected to end with Paris Saint Germain on top. The 2014 2015 La Liga, though, is still ratcheting up the tension, whether you're fan in a Real Madrid shirt, an FC Barcelona kit, or a Deportivo La Coruna jersey.

Indeed, the Spanish top flight division is still

There was a time earlier this season when it looked like Olympique Marseille were headed toward their first Ligue 1 title since 2010. From week six to week 19, the club was a constant and unwavering fixture at the top of the league standings table. Not even two-time-consecutive reigning champions Paris Saint Germain could seem to find the Olympians' weak spot. It made the first half of the 2014 2015 season a consistently exciting time to be a fan in the Olympique Marseille shirt.

But then something went wrong. With a loss against Montpellier in their first game of 2015, the Olympians fell out of first place-and seemingly lost their confidence. Since then, they haven't even been able to win two or more games in a row, and have picked up half a dozen more losses. Luckily, with a win on Friday against Metz, it seems as if the football club might just be finding their feet again. Celebrate that fact with a new Marseille away jersey 2014 2015, available at Soccer Box!

Following an intriguing encounter at the Juventus stadium last night (05/05/15) the Italian giants will be taking a 2-1 aggregate lead back to the Bernabeu for the second leg of the Juventus v Real Madrid Champions League semi-final. In what was mostly a congested midfield battle the Italian champions came out on top courtesy of a first half Alvaro Morata goal against his former club and a second half Carlos Tevez penalty. These two goals sandwiched yet another Champions League goal for Cristiano Ronaldo who now sits on an incredible 76 goals in his Champions League tournament career.

There was an unusual look to Juventus v Real Madrid in last night's Champions League Semi-Final opener however with the home team wearing their classic, world famous black and white striped home football shirt while Real Madrid were sporting their all-black third kit. This made for an unusual view of the match however English referee Martin Atkinson didn't appear to struggle in differentiating between

Saturday, May 2^nd was a big day for top-flight Italian football, as Juventus beat Sampdoria 1-0 to clinch the 2014 2015 Serie A title. However, for fans of U.S. Citta di Palermo, Saturday brought the third disappointing match outcome in as many weeks. With a scoreless draw at Sassuolo, the Eagles further solidified their spot outside the top 10 in the league standings. Help them turn things around by picking up a new Palermo shirt from Soccer Box and showing your support for the team.

In many ways, the 11^th place slot where the Eagles are currently situated in Serie A is still evidence that the squad has performed above expectations this year. After all, Palermo were promoted into the top-flight this year after a division winning performance in the Serie B. For the club to be on the cusp of a top 10 finish is absolutely impressive, and at Soccer Box you can celebrate the strong performance with a new team shirt! We still have stock remaining of the distinctive

It only took one goal for Chelsea FC to beat Crystal Palace and secure their title as 2014 2015 English Premier League champions on Sunday afternoon. The point came 45 minutes into the contest, just before the home game broke for halftime. Belgian midfielder Eden Hazard found the back of the net to give his squad a 1-0 lead, and that lead carried the Blues to their fourth EPL football title in a decade. Needless to say, soccer fans at Stamford Bridge went wild. It was a proud day to wear the Chelsea football shirt.

Of course, there are still three games to be played in the 2014 2015 Premier League. However, those fixtures will be nothing but a victory lap for the Blues, as mathematics dictate that the squad cannot be caught in terms of overall season standings. Take part in the victory celebrations today with a new Chelsea jersey from Soccer Box! Considering the team's success, these items have been incredibly popular at our store this year, and stock of both home jerseys and away
