Multiple MLS teams have also chose to boycott their games tonight. It seems like 5 of 6 games will not be played.

Now, both both genders can get paid whatever meager salary the Brazilian FA probably pays players :p

@Olympian1010  Yeah, male players make money in their clubs not from their country FA tbh. This is like those NBA players, they make money from the clubs and the league itself, not for playing for 'Dream Teams'. Hell, most top US basketball players don't even want to represent their country anymore.

 

Women's club football is only moving up but that's still long off the men's game and it will never reach that status tbh.

 

@Gianlu33 Meanwhile :POL Arkadiusz Milik wants to stay in Serie A. His Napoli tenure is over but he rejected an offer from RB Leipzig and apparently Roma and Fiorentina have shown interest in signing him.

the AFC Champions League group round is ongoing in Qatar (all matches in Qatar) and the defending champion Al-Hilal (KSA) is in trouble. almost their whole squad is COVID positive but they don't want to withdraw ! in few minutes they will start their last group match (against an Emirati team) with only 9 players ! :facepalm: they have only 11 players available including 3 GKs

 

Al-Hilal is already qualified, they don't care about this match but in 3 days they have to play Round of 16 and it's not clear if their players will recover in time or not, funny story for the richest club in Asia.

 

------------------

 

AFC cancelled the match because of some AFC regulations (13 players are necessary to start a match) and also forced them to withdraw (somehow disqualified) from the competition.

Pavel Hapal fired.

 

A few minutes ago, our federation ended its cooperation with the national team coach.

 

Despite advancing to the finals of the Euro 2020 qualifiers Play-Offs, The general assembly of the Slovak Football Association evaluated the results in the ongoing UEFA Nations League B (4 matches and only 1 point) and the overall very poor team's performance in the September & October matches as insufficient and not fulfilling the legitimate expectations of the professional and general public.

 

The last nail in the coffin was the embarassing fiasco against Israel, a match we lost after leading 2-0 at the half time (Something never happened in the whole history of our NT) !  Especially the way the team was playing this fall was legitimately marked as unacceptable.

 

The Czech former Czechoslovakia and later Czech Republic football NT quite decent midfielder was the coach of :SVK national team since 22 October 2018 after replacing the most successful coach in our NT history Ján Kozák. He led the team in 17 official matches with a record 6 W - 4 D - 7 L

If they hold on a bit before signing someone new, maybe they can have Frank de Boer who was appointed coach of the Dutch team late September and is not exactly doing much good :p

    • What is the exact thing Austria is supposed to be cheating with? We know what the Norwegians did (including video evidence).
    • Read elsewhere that the Women's 400m.has only 12 entrants out of a projected 30!   So enthusiasm not exactly overflowing.   Also 4x400m do not earn places in Tokyo, so teams targetting the World Relays in May instead.
    • James West very unhappy on his Instagram at not being selected. 
    • Very bad time. they forgot fasting of some athletes .... no Russian no Muslims  ...the next time no  Aliens 
    • All that is negative for europe/Asia but positive for Africa ...
    • 1-Americans didn't vote their president ,  AIPAC did ...democracy in USA  disappeared with assassinate of Kennedy    2-Trump is not working for Russia , he is under the mercy of jew lobbies ...like he always said "America first " and Satanyahu 2nd ..he is looking for annexing Canada, Panama,Greonland and Gaza for more money ...his current arm is tax +spy methodes like sexe tape    The positive thing he is showing the truth to people without hypocrisie, manipulation  or hidden meeting 
    • Strange new innovation in the Team Time Trial in the Paris-Nice*   Instead of the whole team, or most of the team crossing the line together and the time being calculated on rider four or five, now the time is calculated on the second man, so the teams splits up at some agreed point just before the finish, and only the two fastest (obviously one necessarily being your superstar) cross the line together, and the rest can roll in when they wish.  Presumably the idea is to make the whole thing less predictable, whereas in previous years it was always just two or three of the mega teams who really took the whole thing seriously.  Don't know if this is going to be general now, or just confined to this race, or to ASO races or whatever.      *Of course, someone is going to come along and say they've been doing it this way for years, and I've just been too drunk to pay attention.  
    • Soviet Union & China were at odds since Stalin refused to give nuclear weapons to Mao and worsened after Khruschev denounced Stalin alltogether. Yes, these countries have the same goal but chose a different path to reach it. And currently China's methods are proving more successful.   There's no real 5D chess with Trump, he usually means what he says. It's just most politicians actually don't say what they mean and now everyone is trying to uncover layers to his words when in fact there's nothing to uncover. If Trump says China is #1 'enemy' then - from purely business perspective - this is how he views his priorities.
    • Russia only plays and fools Trump, west. We know them the best. Puree acting. They are brutal and want everything. 
    • Why should Russia now be getting closer to the US, when they have always been closer to China for many reasons, including historical ones? This is so ridiculous that it is impossible that someone could seriously think something like this. It will happen that the USA will alienate many countries that are friendly to it but Russia will choose China, not the USA This is the 5D chess of Trump and Musk, between subsequent alcohol and drugs libation in the White House
