Iker Casillas [Spain/Real Madrid] App. #4: The Season's Coming Back And So Is Iker!


+BIOGRAPHY+
Iker Casillas Fernández (born May 20, 1981 in Móstoles, Madrid) is a Spanish football goalkeeper. He is currently the first choice goalkeeper for Real Madrid and the Spanish national team. He is the captain of the Spanish national team, as well as one of the vice-captains of Real Madrid.
He was a product of Real Madrid's youth system, and started in the junior squad during the 1990-91 season, but it wasn't until 1998-99 that he debuted in the senior side, replacing Bodo Illgner, and he was in Real's starting lineup the next season. In 2000, he became the youngest-ever goalkeeper to ever play in a Champions League final when Real Madrid defeated Valencia C.F. 3-0 four days after his nineteenth birthday. Casillas lost his spot to backup Cesar Sanchez after a patch of bad form during the 2001-02 campaign, but Sanchez suffered an injury in the last minutes of Madrid's 2-1 2002 Champions League final victory over Bayer Leverkusen and was replaced by Casillas, who earned back the starting shirt the next season and has maintained it since. In February 2008, he signed a contract extension that will keep him at the club until 2017, with an automatic extension if he plays 30 competitive matches during the final season of the contract. Casillas is currently the second-most capped goalkeeper in the history of the Spanish national team, behind Andoni Zubizarreta, who appeared in 126 matches for Spain during his career. He won the UEFA-CAF Meridian Cup and FIFA World Youth Championship with Spain in 1999. Following his full international debut against Sweden, Casillas was an unused substitute at Euro 2000. He was part of the roster for the 2002 World Cup finals and started all of Spain's matches, cementing his spot as Spain's first choice after the tournament.
Casillas played in all eight Group 6 fixtures during Euro 2004 qualifying, conceding just four goals. He kept a clean sheet in both legs of the playoff victory against Norway, and started all of Spain's Euro 2004 matches. He was first choice for the 2006 FIFA World Cup, captaining the team twice. He started the first two Euro 2008 Group D games against Russia and Sweden before being rested in place of Pepe Reina for Spain's group stage elimination of Greece. Casillas saved two penalties from Antonio Di Natale and Daniele De Rossi as Spain eliminated Italy in the quarterfinals with a 4-2 shootout win following a goalless draw on June 22.

No, I assume it's a friendly match or something like that, that's why no Iker. They're letting him get some more rest.

Those icons and wall papers are amazing, thank you!

You're welcome. It's from a Polish Real Madrid web site and they have gorgeous arts there. I have a Robben wallie at the moment.

Yeah but Cannavaro, Pepe & Sergio weren't here either
I saw the last two watching the Arsenal / Juventus games so I assume that Iker & Canna are also there but I still didn't see him

ETA - I saw both of them on TV ,when they did a resume of the game of the day, Canna & Iker watching the Arsenal / Juventus game sitting next to each other

OMFG I've been trying to post this message since 15:00 but this thread wouldn't load for me no matter what!
I downloaded the Iker vs. Nadal against Malaria game and it's AMAZING!
It's Iker's team against Nadal's team, they played tennis and football and it was such a funny event [it's from 7-8 months ago].
I did almost vomit when they interviewed Eva though unfortunately, I didn't understand much from her, only something about her having to take food out of the oven in the house so he won't injure his hands or something.

Iker sucks SO BAD at tennis, it was so funny and cute to watch him!
