This is the game to finally be clinical
Buhari, whose two terms thankfully ground to a constitutional halt in May. (One thing both democracies have going for them is that their leaders, however bad, have only two terms to swing the wrecking ball.) Under Buhari, growth per head also plunged to 0. An economic agenda drawn from the dusty pages of a 1970s protectionist handbook failed to do the trick. Despite Buhari’s promise to tame terrorism and criminality, violence flourished. Despite his reputation for probity, corruption swirled. FT

We have been brainwashed by the Premier League that it's the best in the world. Nonsense. It's the best brand

He says that we are currently "brainwashed" into believing that the Premier League is the best competition in the world, and that we are now a long way off dominating the Champions League again.

I think Spain’s by far the best league.

At the end of this game CAF needs to explain to the world how this guy was awarded the AFCON Final….

Now the reason why the Moroccan ref quit is becoming apparent….

We'll be lucky to win with this showing. We're restricted to our box - they don't have Xavi & Iniesta - playing very scared.

Why isn’t var looking at that quaking
make peaceful change impossible make violent change inevitable.

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true."

That was an 'intentional foul' against our man, Why did the VAR not take a look at it?

We may need a second goal to calm down the referee. Hopefully our one will be enough regardless of the referee.

Ekong might have just sneaked ahead as MVP.
