There are also other teams (apart Leicester City) that won the domestic championships in last weekend, congratulations :yes

 

:SUI FC Basel :champion: 19th title (and secure place in group stage of UCL 2016/17)

:CRO Dinamo Zagreb :champion: 17th Croatian title (and 11th in a row)

:CZE Viktoria Plzeň :champion:  4th title

:ROU  Astra Giurgiu :champion: first title

:CYP  APOEL FC   :champion: 25th title

:AZE  Qarabag :champion: 4th title

:GIB  Lincoln FC :champion: 22nd title (and 14th in a row)

I knew Gibraltar had one very dominant team, but I always thought it was a bit more close in Croatia :yikes:

 

Here the championship will be decided Sunday, the last day of the competition (apart from play-offs for the European spots and stuff). Ajax and PSV apparently are both equal in points :p

It can't be considering that they govern all of the football and national football federation (which is full of mafia and corruption), plus they have their 2nd club with more than 10 players loaned (Lokomotiva Zagreb), and they are playing in the same league! Yes, it sounds like it's not real, but it is true. Even their fans don't support them anymore, average of spectators in  Dinamo matches in last few years is about 1500-2000 spectators. All of that awful atmosphere also infected on national team, that's why almost no one cares about the upcoming Euro here.

CAS tells Fifa to reconsider Gibraltar’s membership ‘without delay’

 

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has ordered Fifa to reconsider Gibraltar’s application for membership and submit it to congress as soon as possible.

The Gibraltar FA had appealed to Cas against a Fifa executive committee decision, taken in September 2014, to reject its application for membership.

CAS said on Monday that Fifa’s congress “shall take all necessary measures to admit the Gibraltar Football Association as a full member of Fifa without delay”.

Gibraltar has been a member of Uefa since 2013.

 

FIFA Statement on CAS decision concerning Gibraltar

Following the decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) concerning Gibraltar, the FIFA Council is expected to discuss the matter at its next meeting on 9 and 10 May 2016 and decide on the next steps, including a potential request to amend the 66th FIFA Congress agenda in order to submit the Gibraltar FA’s application for FIFA membership

    • Is it true Mehdi Taremi could face visa issues due to him serving in the IRGC previously? Could US sanction professional footballers playing in World cup under FIFA? 
    • For the summary and lowlights of Thailand's preparation in hosting the ongoing Sea Games, I kindly suggest those who are interested to read from this English language article from Thai media outlet, Thai Enquirer: https://www.thaienquirer.com/63469/thailands-sea-games-2025-under-fire-budget-management-and-technical-controversies/
    • It's all hogwash especially in the short attention span generation. Like nobody cares about Free Tibet anymore either. Free Palestine will last a lot longer due to Saudi Arabia becoming a sponsorship force in sports.   Israel is too weak in soccer to qualify from UEFA zone. The only time they qualified was from the Asian zone and they only beat Australia & New Zealand who were complete nobodies in the 1960s. No such luck in the 60 years since.
    • Oh I assure you FIFA dodger a bullet with Israel not qualifying…   But ya that’s kind of the thing, shut up and dribble is a mantra anti LGBT people have used often. I don’t think it’s hypocritical to remind them of their position
    • Ah, yes but that's not how pro athletes are taught in North America these days? Shut up & dribble is xenophobic, racist or whatever? The hypocrisy of some of these policies were exposed during 2022 World Cup already where the Saudis played it smart and waved their own "Free Palestine' slogans. Forget LGBT rights for a moment, how many 'Free Palestine' flags will be waved in 2026? Or will those be confiscated by default? Somehow I feel this won't be met with similar backlash when China clamped down on 'Free Tibet' in 2008 OG. Saudi Arabia is more important to global markets than Iran & Egypt 
    • Wisła Płock just assumed 1st position after five consecutive draws. Must be first time ever a team on a five match winless streak actually moves up to league top.
    • Well ya, which is why the Egyptian and Iranian teams can shut up and dribble :P
    • The problem is, the World Cup is not a local event. Overall it's another storm in a teacup. LGBT rights in Muslim countries won't change a damn inch becuse of one soccer match in Seattle 
    • After looking at the entry list of athletes in the official website, I've changed some of my predictions in the Olympic events with these changes:   Total Tally: Thailand 87, Singapore 51, Vietnam 48, Indonesia 33, Philippines 24, Malaysia 22, Cambodia 1     Badminton (5): Malaysia 2, Thailand 1, Singapore 1, Indonesia 1   Men’s Singles: Switched from Thailand to Singapore     Boxing (11): Thailand 8, Philippines 2, Vietnam 1   Men: -54 kg (-55 kg): Thailand, -60 kg: Thailand, -63.5 kg (-65 kg): Thailand, -69 kg (-70 kg): Thailand, -80 kg: Philippines   Women: -50 kg (-51 kg): Thailand, -54 kg: Thailand, -57 kg: Thailand, -60 kg: Vietnam, -66 kg (-65 kg): Thailand, -70 kg: Philippines     Sailing (7): Thailand 4, Singapore 2, Malaysia 1   ICLA 6: Switched from Thailand to Malaysia     Taekwondo (8): Thailand 6, Vietnam 2   -67 kg: Switched from  Vietnam to Thailand     Weightlifting (5): Thailand 2, Philippines 1, Indonesia 1, Malaysia 1   Men: -65 kg: Malaysia, -94 kg (-95 kg): Thailand   Women: -53 kg: Thailand, -69 kg: Philippines, -77 kg: Indonesia   * I saw that they have actually change the weight categories to almost match that of IWF newly introduced categories from several months ago.      Wrestling (12): Vietnam 7, Philippines 3, Indonesia 2   Men's Freestyle: -57 kg: Philippines, -65 kg: Vietnam, -74 kg: Vietnam, -86 kg: Philippines Men's Greco-Roman: -67 kg: Indonesia, -77 kg: Vietnam, -87 kg: Indonesia, -97 kg: Vietnam Women's Freestyle: -50 kg: Vietnam, -53 kg: Vietnam, -57 kg: Vietnam, -62 kg: Philippines
