Sangare paid the ref.
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

Strong hand there.

From a neutral perspective, surely the lack of brain in some of the Ivorian play (thankfully) should warrant MRI scans aplenty at full time.

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.

WTF is this ref doing?
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Zaidu is a player I despise in offensive end. His presence there is a disadvantage.

We're grafting hard and it's good to see.

Nwabili, Aina, Onyeka and Ekong have been IMMENSE.

Problem is that he was exposing the defense when he lost the ball high up on the pitch. The CB’s were having to do double work to cover for him
