There’s not one word in that excerpt that makes an iota of sense to me.

You have to get your soccer decoder ring...

Fergie, 71, walks away from Old Trafford having secured United’s 13th Premier League title.

Old Trafford is Man United's home field (or pitch). Think of it as Yankee Stadium or Fenway Park.... The Premier League is the top level of professional soccer in England, akin to Major League Baseball. There are lower levels of competition, much like Triple AAA bball and on down.

Along with 13 league titles, Ferguson also guided United to two European Cups, five FA Cups and four League Cup triumphs.

The European Cup is a yearly tournament, by qualification, of each of the top professional teams across all the European national leagues. The FA Cup is the English national tournament, open to all English pro teams.

His last last game in charge will be at West Brom on May 19.

Man United plays West Bromwich in the season-ender May 19 (Man United has already been knocked out of the European Cup and FA Cup this year).

Easy huh?
