Poverty and Destitution can make more than this 

Ah come on... Europe is not refugee center for poor people from Africa and Asia. Thanks to immigrants from that part of the world many Europeans are without job in their own countries

I thought u were talking about the concept of immigrating in sea and dying there , this's different story and i think it's not the best place to discuss it here

sure a massive migration like this is heavy for some countries , but do not forget that millions of europeans work in Asia/Africa too

 

also many european/us companies here  take the 49% of the production of petrole
it's the same thing in other African countries where they steal the Gold,Diamants...etc

:USA MLS Cup :USA

Surprises after the last round of playoff: are out both teams of New York, LA Galaxy and Dallas, winner this year of Supporters' Shield and Usa Open Cup

The Conference Championships (MLS Cup Semifinals) will be Seattle vs Colorado and  Canadian derby Montreal vs Toronto

Colorado is the only team that already won the MLS (2010)

 

Italy players are protagonists in Canada's teams: Mancosu and Donadel in Montreal and Giovinco in Toronto (3 goals yesterday)

 

Montreal and Toronto are the first Canadian clubs to reach this stage of the MLS Cup, but however there aren't many Canadian players (protagonists) in both teams:

Montreal have the midfielder Bernier (and the coach Biello); Toronto have the midfielder Osorio and reserves forwards Ricketts, Johnson and Hamilton.

 

Alredy qualified in CONCACAF Champions League 2017/18:

:USA Dallas FC (USA Open Cup and  winner)

:USA New York Red Bull (Eastern Conference Champions - regular season)

:USA Colorado Rapids (Supporters' Shield  Runner Up)

:CAN Toronto FC (Canada Champions)

    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall. 
    • Finally got around to updating post 2 with results from last weekend...that's a lot of German and Austrian flags!
