Sportrait: Javier Saviola
It's been a while since I've featured a footballer in the Sportraits, so here's a tribute to Argentinian striker Javier Saviola, showing what he's made of after scoring against Celta Vigo in a Spanish league football match-up on Sunday. Saviola plays for FC Barcelona. His nickname is El Conejo (the rabbit).

Andy, keep posting shots of these footballers. They provide mid-day motivation.

ANDY -
I refresh towleroad (my homepage) at least three times a day (and I have for the last several years).
Your blog is always enlightening and entertaining (I especially love your heavy rotation posts).
BUT I HATE YOUR BANNER RIGHT NOW!
Please change it! It looks so cheap and silly compared to your usually stunning photography.
