Cameroon's 'under 17' team has a bit of a problem....21 of the 30 players turned out to be too old :lol:

Not really a surprise that they're not all actually under 17, I assume, but 21 out of 30 is quite a high number :p

Word is Enzo Fernandez will move to Chelsea for 120+ million Euro. @konig@LDOG

 

that's definitely crazy , those people at Benfica know very well how to market their stars they received at least 350 M Euros from only 3 players Joao Felix , Nunez and now Enzo Fernandez , Chelsea under this American management reminds me of Glazers'era at Man UTD where trillions of Pounds spent for nothing , they already spent a whole lot of money in summer

"The Royal Moroccan Football Federation (FRMF) has threatened to boycott the upcoming African Nations Championship unless host country Algeria agrees to its requests

 

FRMF President Fouzi Lekjaa is demanding that a direct Royal Air Maroc flight is set up from Rabat to Constantine, where the Moroccan national team is due to play its group matches.

Algerian authorities have previously closed its airspace to Morocco and remains adamant in its stance.

"We are only obliged to provide transport for the participating teams within the national territory," said Organising Committee President Rachid Oukali, explaining that it was not the body's responsibility to provide direct flights, as reported by Atalayar.

"Most of the African countries coming to Algeria will have stopovers."

The Moroccan National Press Council has also sent a letter to President Patrice Motsepe of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) asking for Algeria to guarantee Moroccan journalists the freedom of the press, freedom of expression and human rights at the Championship."

Well alrighty, no Morocco at the event, I'd assume. Barely a month later and their 4th place has already gone to their heads :p

    • Slovakia pulled the goalie out in the Overtime and played 4 vs 3  for more than 2 minutes    We suddeenly pulled out goalie and have control of the puck for like 2 minutes in the first 2 minutes of the overtime but without soring than lost the puck and give up a 2 on 0 breakaway empty net goal for the czechs    Interesting strategy 
    • The doomongering made what I post on here seem positive. Everything possible to go wrong was predicted fo go wrong.
    • Road to Junior World Championship International Test Matches   Monday 22nd December, 2025 ---------------------------------   -   1-2 After OT
    • Yeah, there's certainly things to complain about from an athletes' perspective, but snow should really not be much of an issue indeed. Mostly things like the enormous geographical spread and it's consequences like there not being one big opening ceremony and everything being spread around a bunch of small Olympic 'villages'/accomodations - so not really the Olympic feeling and atmosphere for the athletes since they'll mostly just stay around athletes of their own sport as in any regular competition.   We'll be going very near to the Olympic area in a few weeks (Coppa Italia in Falcade), let's see what things look like by then.
    • need to work on the celebrations... or just drop them?   Btw, these jerseys suck and I remember Zambia playing in all white with red numbers. At least they have orange on national flag but still...    
    • British Columbia in general and Vancouver in particular are awesome and it’s great more people got to discover it thanks to Vancouver 2010.
    • And of course the British being famous for curmudgeons, there were always plenty of curmudgeons to quote.  Then of course from the opening ceremony and the cycle race on the very first morning it was obviously going to be triumph, so everyone just shut up for a while.  
    • Yep, the amount of emergency services I heard at some point was a little extreme (for our little town), so I checked what was going on and saw they were all being called to a specific location. Until then I thought maybe it was part of a parade of trucks and agricultural vehicles that was on it's way from the next town over, decorated with lights and stuff.   Since I knew it was on the parade route, I was sure one of those big vehicles had hit people somehow (there were, besides the many vehicles, also two helicopters on the way, meaning it certainly wasn't about a single victim).   We picked our bikes and went to take a look, absolutely chaos in the area. Never saw so many services combined together, fire trucks from 20km away, ambulance after ambulance came racing by, people frantically trying to make way for them (the roads weren't really closed yet).   While there we heard someone who had been close say that the parade hadn't arrived yet and what seemed to have happened was that a car from the other side came onto the roundabout and simply never turned. "It's a massive drama over there, unbelievable", he said.   Quite quickly rumours started spreading of course, the first one turned out to be true: a middle aged (local) woman was behind the wheel and seems to have become unwell. Local security camera showed the car going at high speed right before the roundabout.   Plenty of rumours going around in terms of who were involved of course, and people keeping each other up to date to see if they know this or that family and such...   Never expected my little town to be big news in the Netherlands, even including some breaking broadcasts, live reporters and everything, damn. By far the biggest thing to happen here in my memory  
    • This is the home town of our very own @heywooduand @brunamoura    
    • For me, these were very good Olympics, and British sport benefited greatly from them, and is still benefiting. I fear it will be much worse here. Canada also benefited very good on Vancouver 2010 – this is very good see in the medal standings of subsequent Winter Games after 2010 and earlier.
