In the Soccer Aid charity match in Manchester England 3 Rest of The World 3 England won 4-3 on penalties The actor David Harewood (Homeland, Supergirl) saved 2 penalties in the shoot out before Haydn Christensen (Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader in Star Wars) missed the deciding penalty Juan Veron, Clarence Seedorf and Robbie Keane scored for the world team. Micheal Owen, Darren Bent and freestyle footballer Jeremy Lynch for England. Usain Bolt and Mo Farah played against each other.

Which is sad. Some of the people here who follow the sport of cricket may remember his father, Winston Benjamin, who was a fast bowler for Antigua and the West Indies.

I read that British and German Muslim athletes can postpone Ramadan fasting for some months if they get permission from their Imam to make up for it later in the year. Is that not possible in Algeria or is this championship not important enough to do that?

I think we have a prize winner in the "Most stupid doper of all time" category. Iuri Dudoglo was born in Moldova. He competed for Moldova in weightlifting from 2009 to 2013 the moved to Azerbaijan. In his 1st championship for Azerbaijan he fails a drug test and is banned for 2 years (2013-2015). He then moves back to Moldova and competes for then between 2015 and 2017 before failing another drug test at the 2017 European Championships. Because it's a second offense he gets an 8 year ban. He can return when he's 34 in 2025, But the IWF keep him on their testing list (I guess because he doesn't announce his retirement). So this year, 7 years before he can return to competition he fails another test.... This time it will be a life ban...

Actually according to facebook he lives in Béjaïa

This is slightly off the subject but Farah himself does not like it when people say he is from Somalia. He was born in the capital of Somalia but his family comes from Somaliland which wants independence from Somalia He is seen is this video with the flag of Somaliland. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvkWQ3fp6NU https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somaliland https://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/صوماليلاند

If the IAAF change his nationality to French I will change it here immediately.

I agree it's a little unfair to list him as Algerian not French. He's completely part of the French athletics system and, though his parents seem to come from Algeria, he doesn't seem to have a connection to Algeria. Unfortunately in this case the IAAF definitely say he opted to run for Algeria, https://www.athleticsintegrity.org/downloads/pdfs/notifications-and-sanctions/en/May-Sanctions-List-FULL.pdf see page 10. And I can't really overrule them. They make the rules... MOSBAH Habib Athlete ALG M Long Distance (3000m+) Doping IAAF Rule 32.2 (a) IAAF Rule 32.2 (b) EPO 04/02/2018 4 years ineligibility

I have to admit i know very little about skateboarding.

20 in each event. Top 3 in World Championship, 16 from world rankings plus 1 from host nation. Must be 1 competitor from each continent so Africa will probably take the place of the 16th in the world rankings. Maximum 3 from each country

I don't know how accurate these rankings are but if you remove the extra Americans and Brazilians he would be 14th in the rankings and qualify for Tokyo https://theboardr.com/globalrank?discipline=1&sex=All&age=All

How many children do the Hochschorner twins have? I was counting on a Slovakian dynasty. Being serious for a moment - the C2 at the London Olympics turned slalom canoeing in Great Britain for being a tiny sport to being an important event.

Let's do a deal. Slovakia to win half the gold medals in Tokyo and Great Britain to win the other half? OK?

Hope it will still be banned for some sports. Motor racing for example...

At the moment it's not sure if she tested positive before, during or after the Commonwealth Games.

The walks will be held on a circuit in the gardens of the Imperial Palace.
