First question, is there a website for the La Manga Cup...I couldn't find one. Second question, I thought this was the preseason tourney for Scandanvia, at least that it was all Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian over the past couple of years. But now there are just 4 Norwegian teams, 2 MLS teams, 2 Russian teams. I am looking forward to seeing how the American teams do against the Norwegians :)

Is that LA score for real? Any links to match reports?

Go to the LA Galaxy board here at BS and a Lyn fan has linked to a Lyn website proclaiming the 5-0 Galaxy victory.

For those who can't read norwegian, that article is about the Rosenborg-San Jose match and the author thinks San Jose could do well in the Norsk Tippeliga.

No disrespect to La Galaxy and the MLS at all, I really think the MLS has high quality, and is also vastly improving for each year. However, it has to be said that Lyn has been in terrible shape so far this winter/spring, I don't know what is wrong. Possibly the new coach Thordarsson(third last with Brann last season), is just not getting the team to enjoy his tactics yet.
Rosenborg is the team to beat though. A friendly will always be a friendly, but RBK has still had a strong start to the pre season. :)
