Five years ago, Bechem United, a Ghana Premier League side, had just signed a young striker who had not played for any club before. He had been spotted playing community football. He was an instant hit in the league. Four goals in his first 10 games. I travelled to Bechem to interview him. Listening to his journey from Sampa to Bechem, I had to turn the interview into a motivational session. Urged him on to forget where he came from and work hard. I’m glad he is making it. The name is Prince Adu Kwabena and he will be striking for Ghana at the World Cup.

Only eight men in history have scored more than Cristiano Ronaldo’s 11 World Cup goals. But relative to his brilliance, his longevity and his status in the sport, as the all-time record goalscorer in both club and international football, that is a frustratingly meagre return. For a sporting superhero, the World Cup has resembled kryptonite… But Ronaldo’s legacy and his story has been written over the past two decades. He should not spend the rest of his life fretting about the one that got away. Oliver Kay on Ronaldo, the World Cup and a question of legacy. 🔗

🚨 Reporter asks José Mourinho which country he will be supporting at the World Cup: 🎙️ Reporter: “José, apart from Portugal, which country would you like to see win the World Cup?” 🗣️ José Mourinho: “It wouldn’t be bad to see Messi win it a second time. What he has done for football is incredible and nobody can take that away from him. But if I am being honest, I want Portugal to win it. Not just because it is my country, but because of Cristiano Ronaldo. This could be his final opportunity on the biggest stage. He has won almost everything football has to offer. The World Cup is the one trophy that would complete the story. When you look at his sacrifices, his mentality, his consistency and what he has given to football for more than twenty years, it would be a beautiful ending. Cristiano has carried the hopes of a nation for so long. To see him lift the World Cup with Portugal would be something special. So yes, if Portugal don’t win it, I wouldn’t be upset if Messi won another one. But my heart says Portugal and Cristiano Ronaldo. I would love to see him finish his story on the biggest stage in football. {Football on TNT Sports }

“No one is doing the Black Stars; they are their own problem. We reached the Round of 32, and this is the performance they gave us. So, is this what Carlos Queiroz meant by the beginning of our World Cup? None of the players played well today.” — Kwadwo Nkansah Lil Win expresses his disappointment with the Black Stars’ performance in their World Cup defeat to Colombia, criticizing both head coach Carlos Queiroz’s pre-match remarks and the players for what he described as a poor overall display.

Sometimes as fans, we are mostly focused on how the achievements of the team means to us and we forget about the players. How they feel about it, what it means for them to win these games. Take Noni Madueke for instance, his transfer to Arsenal was a mess. A lot of the fans didn't understand the move and there was a lot of displeasure about it online. How do you think that made Madueke feel? This is a guy who was on top of his game in the Netherlands before moving to Chelsea and everything changed for him. He went from a confident dribbling monster, fighting for silverware to whatever he was at Chelsea, a shadow of himself. Now he has won the league in his first season at Arsenal and made the world cup squad for England. Arteta is not only saving the lives of the fans, he is also saving the lives of his players. Thank you Arteta.

🚨Reporter: Rodri, Cristiano Ronaldo’s World Cup journey has come to an end. What do you think his impact on the tournament and football has been? Rodri: “Cristiano Ronaldo’s impact on the World Cup and on football as a whole is impossible to ignore. To play in six World Cups, score in all of them, and still compete at the highest level at 41 years old is something we may never see again. That speaks volumes about his professionalism, mentality, and dedication.” “People often focus only on trophies, but football is much bigger than that. Ronaldo inspired an entire generation of players to believe that hard work can take you to the very top. Every team that faced Portugal had to prepare differently because of the threat he carried, even at this stage of his career.” “He changed the standards of football. His work ethic, hunger to improve, and desire to win have influenced players all over the world. Whether you’re a teammate, an opponent, or just a football fan, you have to respect what he has achieved.” “World Cups come and go, but Cristiano Ronaldo’s legacy will last forever. He leaves this tournament with his head held high because he gave everything for his country. Football will miss seeing him on the World Cup stage, but his name will always be remembered among the greatest players to ever play the game. #Fıfaworldcup2026 #copamundialdefútbol

Messi deserved the Golden Ball 🐐 Giving Rodri the World Cup Golden Ball over Messi wasn’t deserved — One of the most baffling decisions I've ever witnessed at a World Cup. Rodri is the heartbeat of Spain’s system, no doubt about it. But you can’t hand him the tournament’s best player award based mainly on his performances in the semifinal and final. Many people debated the controversies surrounding Argentina throughout this World Cup, but FIFA's decision to give the Golden Ball to Rodri instead of Lionel Messi was beyond belief. Messi deserved every individual award this tournament had to offer. He delivered world-class performances in every match for Argentina. If the Golden Ball isn't awarded to the best player of the tournament, then what is its purpose? Players give everything on the pitch to earn that recognition. Rodri is an outstanding footballer, but based on this World Cup alone, there is no comparison between him and Messi. The statistics speak for themselves. The performances speak for themselves. That's why this is one of the most baffling decisions I've ever witnessed at a World Cup. There’s also a huge difference in the strength of the two national teams, yet that wasn’t properly taken into account. Neither was individual performance. This isn’t about statistics alone. Rodri is incredibly important and influential to his team. Messi is just as essential—arguably even more so. Not simply because of goals or assists, but because of everything he means to his team. Both are the heart of their sides, but Messi had the added edge of consistently deciding games. Since the award ultimately went to a player from the finalists, the comparison is straightforward. I honestly don’t know what they were thinking by giving it to Rodri. For me, Lionel Messi deserved the World Cup Golden Ball without a second thought.

When the season began, many doubted Arteta's ability to win a trophy. His tactics and decisions faced staunch criticism, and even I questioned if he was right for the job. Critics even questioned how he dresses, walks and behaves on the touchline. He is too emotional, some said. Why is he always agitated? He is too animated. He doesn't inspire his players enough. The role is too big for him, others loudly bleated. Then came the 4-match blip, during which Arsenal were knocked out of two tournaments, and the 10-point gap was closed. The epitaphs on Arteta's grave were already erected. He has bottled it again. He must be sacked. He is not fit for the job. They described Pep and others as perfect and how much better they were than Arteta. Last Monday, we all saw Arsenal place one hand on the Premiership trophy, and I watched from the Emirates as Arsenal qualified for our first Champions League final in 20 years. Even in this moment of clear history unfolding before our eyes, some still maintain that Arsenal should have scored 5 goals, not just the solitary goal at the Emirates. Arteta is still not good enough. They say oh he will still lose the final and bottle the league with 3 games to go. In all this, Arteta has remained focused. He knows that the only opinion that truly matters is the Board's. They set his KPIs. They get briefings from him on the endgame. His tunnel vision will see him challenge for the trophy and possibly win the Champions League for the first time in Arsenal's 139-year history in Budapest. He will most likely end a 22-year Premier League drought as well. That will be his legacy. They can hate him and find all the faults, but one day, a statue of Arteta will be erected at the Emirates Stadium, and all the naysayers will have is the bitter aftertaste of their bile and hate in their mouths. This post is NOT about football, Arteta, or Arsenal, but about posterity and for those discerning enough to see its true message. Eyes Fixed On The Prize! 🦁🇬🇭

🚨Pepe on why Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t look as heartbroken after Portugal’s 2026 FIFA World Cup exit compared to 2022. 🎙️ Reporter: “Pepe, many people noticed Cristiano Ronaldo didn’t seem as emotional after Portugal’s elimination as he was in 2022. Why do you think that is?” 🗣️ Pepe: “Because Cristiano Ronaldo is already a living legend. He has nothing left to prove to anyone. “Of course, winning the World Cup was always one of his biggest dreams, but after everything he’s achieved, I don’t think he walked into this tournament feeling he had to prove himself. “Look at his career. He’s won titles and broken records in the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and even in Saudi Arabia. He’s conquered every challenge put in front of him and inspired millions around the world. “Yes, the World Cup would have completed the story, but not winning it doesn’t change who Cristiano Ronaldo is. His legacy was secured many years ago. “Now it’s the younger generation that has something to prove. Players like Bruno Fernandes, Gonçalo Ramos, Pedro Neto, Rafael Leão, Nuno Mendes, João Neves and Vitinha have to carry Portugal forward. “People forget what Portugal was before Cristiano. We had talented players, but we didn’t have the belief or the success we enjoy today. Ronaldo changed the mentality of an entire nation. He helped Portugal win major international trophies and made the world respect Portuguese football. “The biggest question now isn’t about Cristiano. It’s whether this new generation can keep Portugal at the level Ronaldo kept it for more than two decades. “He gave everything to his country for over 20 years. If this is truly the end of his World Cup journey, he leaves with his head held high because he’s already given Portugal more than anyone could ever have asked for.”

Putin said that plans are in place for the TurkStream and Blue Stream gas pipelines in the Black Sea to be destroyed by Ukraine. He says this because it terrifies him because it will cripple the last of Russian gas exports. He says this because he thinks that people give a fuck if we collapse the Russian economy. He also stated nuclear components are also being considered for use against Russia. He says this because he’s a fucking paranoid idiot and he’s also trying to use the nuclear narrative to scare the world about a nuclear apocalypse. No one talks about Nukes other than Russia because the treat of them is the only power they have left. The reason why he’s giving these speeches is because Ukraine has him on his fucking knees and he’s scrambling to not only stop losing the war which he has been doing for the past 4 years, but to also save Russia and his life, he knows when he loses this war his head in on a chopping block. Fuck Putin And Fuck Russia.

Kylian Mbappé on Lionel Messi’s incredible 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign. 🗣️ “People keep asking me if I’m surprised by what Lionel Messi is doing at 39 years old. My answer is simple I’ve stopped being surprised by Messi a long time ago.” “What he’s doing in this World Cup is beyond incredible. Most players at his age are retired or playing without pressure. Messi is carrying Argentina, deciding the biggest matches and taking his country to another World Cup final. That’s not normal. That’s greatness.” “I watched the semi-final against England, and honestly, it reminded everyone why he’ll always be different. Argentina were losing, the pressure was enormous, but Messi never looked worried. He simply took control of the game and produced two world-class assists when his country needed him the most.” “The frightening thing about Messi isn’t just his talent it’s his mentality. The bigger the match, the calmer he becomes. While everyone else feels pressure, he makes football look effortless.” “I was lucky enough to play with him, so I know exactly what he brings to a team. His leadership isn’t about shouting. It’s about making everyone around him believe that anything is possible. That’s a gift very few players have.” “For me, he’s still the best player in the world. I don’t care about his age or what people say. If you’re still deciding World Cup semi-finals at 39, creating magic against the best teams on earth, then you’re still number one.” “Football will produce many stars in the future, but I truly believe we’ll never see another Lionel Messi. What he’s doing today isn’t just inspiring it’s history unfolding right in front of our eyes.”

Elon Musk was asked how fast AI is moving, and answered by correcting the most aggressive forecaster in technology for not being aggressive enough. Musk: “I have to give credit to Ray Kurzweil in being actually remarkably accurate in his predictions. If anything, I think he was perhaps a bit conservative in his predictions.” Kurzweil spent thirty years publishing timelines that were treated as proof he had lost the plot. He hit nearly all of them. The word Musk used for that record was conservative. Kurzweil built his forecasts by reading the rate of change. Musk is reading it now. Musk: “The dedicated AI compute appears to be growing by a factor of 10 every six months.” That is not a projection. “Appears to be growing” describes something that has already happened. Musk: “Almost a 100x improvement per year, at least for the next few years.” Moore’s Law was 2x every two years. That one curve produced the internet, the smartphone, the cloud, and every instinct you have about how fast the world can change. Your sense of normal was calibrated on 2x. The system is running at 100x. The new world is not being built next to the old one. Musk: “Probably a lot of the data centers, maybe most of the data centers that currently do conventional compute, will transition to AI compute.” The infrastructure holding up the current economy is being converted into what replaces it. The old world is the raw material for the next one. Every generation assumes the speed it grew up with is the speed of history. Ours is the first to be handed the actual number and still round it down. Everything you build takes time. A child, a trade, a life’s work. All of it rests on the assumption that the world will still be recognizable when the work is finished. That assumption has held for every human who has ever lived. It was never a law of nature. It was a side effect of how slowly things moved. The most extreme forecast on record came in low. Reasonable is no longer the safe position. It is only the comfortable one.

the camera being in a tight close up on both ilya and shane for the entirety of this scene, except for the moment when ilya is working up the courage to say he’s in love. it’s like for the whole conversation it’s just the two of them, there’s nobody else who matters, and then for a brief moment the shot widens as ilya considers the implications of the fact he’s in love with shane. the fact that the rest of the world DOES matter and will always be a presence in their relationship. we’ve been held in this moment between the two of them and by widening the shot, that intimacy is broken just for a second as we’re reminded that there is a world beyond the two of them and ilya is still in russia. what he’s doing is incredibly dangerous. then the camera tightens back into a close up as he realises he needs to say it anyway because all that matters is that he’s on the phone with shane and he’s in love with him. it really is just the two of them in this moment and he doesn’t want to let anyone else in.

🥺 Baby Pancha has made his first friend on the monkey hill A few days ago, something important happened — one of the monkeys helped him groom fleas. For Pancha, this was his first normal contact with the other residents of the enclosure. Before that, he was pushed away and even beaten. Now he finally has a chance to be accepted by the group.

Since Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from T20is, here something which I had written something for him few months back:(attaching an edit made by Amit Dubey which I found these lyrics fit aptly on Virat) March 2, 2008 This day holds great significance for Indian cricket because, on one hand, India defeated Australia in their own backyard in the first final of the CB series, and at the same time, nearly 6000 kilometers away, India's young brigade had won the Under-19 World Cup. After the World Cup victory, when this team returned to Bangalore from Kuala Lumpur, BCCI gave a grand welcome to the Under-19 team, and Kumble and Dravid were also present there. Dravid congratulated all the young players and imparted some wisdom. He said, "We are proud of you, but I want you to remember that from the Under-19 team that won the World Cup in 2000, only one member was part of the Indian team that won the CB Series." "What you have achieved is not everything, and your goal should be to win the World Cup one day." The young captain of that Under-19 team was listening carefully , and just three years later, he was part of the ODI World Cup-winning team. But the world had yet to witness the prowess of Kohli - the batter in a World Cup... By the next World Cup, Kohli had established himself among the World's best batsmen, but as in life, achieving everything in cricket is not easy. Kohli and the Indian team ended their 2015 World Cup campaign in disappointment. After becoming a regular part of the Indian team, 2015 was the first year when Kohli scored runs at an average of less than 40! Soon after, Kohli was given the responsibility of captaincy, which brought out a new brilliance in his batting. By the next World Cup, Kohli had scored 18 centuries & more than 4000 runs in ODIs at an average of 85 in just three years... Once again, India entered the 2019 World Cup as favorites and justified this tag, entering the semifinals as table toppers. But like in 2015, both Kohli & the Indian team were left with disappointment once again. Whereas the defeat in 2015 had shown us a new level of Kohli, after the loss in 2019, much had changed. In the meantime, there was COVID, a lack of regular games, a century drought, captaincy controversies, and numerous challenges, and another World Cup had arrived... The batsman who had scored more than 11,000 runs and 42 centuries between the 2011 World Cup and the 2023 World Cup (where no one else had even scored 10,000 runs or 30 centuries in ODIs)... I'm not even talking about Tests and T20Is where Kohli has set countless records. Despite all this, the expectation of "Doing even better" from fans and Kohli himself is the true mark of Virat's success. This "excellence" has always defined Virat, which is why a boy from West Delhi, along with Basu Shanker, trained himself like Olympic athletes and influenced not just fellow cricketers but the entire nation's fitness culture. Kohli's competition has never been with any cricketer, but with himself. Nonetheless, this World Cup was special too. Like in 2011, this World Cup was about playing and winning in front of his own people, and it must have reminded Kohli of Dravid's words once again: "What you have achieved is not everything." From winning the first match of this World Cup when India was 2/3 to sealing the victory, to exorcising the ghosts of 5/3 against the Kiwis in the semifinals with a 397/4, and breaking two long-standing records of his idol in front of him, only to get the biggest heartbreak of his career in the final against Australia... Such losses can break your mental toughness & especially in India where experts judges you even on the basis of franchise leagues,Virat too found himself again " evolving himself" in a format which he had already mastered... He came into this T20 World Cup with a new role & responsibility for the Team which supported by the Captain & Coach... He couldn't performed as per his fans expectations but you can see that willingness to prove that I can change myself with the demand of modern T20 even at final stage of my career... Virat is not just a name but a symbol that signifies: if there is truth in your dreams & strength in your resolve, everything is possible...

🚨 AWESOME! President Trump just said the USA-hosted World Cup is "the Safest and Most Spectacular World Cup in History, BY FAR" — crediting law enforcement for making it all possible 👏🏻 "The World Cup turned out to be a spectacular SUCCESS! I want to thank all of those involved but, in particular, our GREAT Law Enforcement. The Respect that everyone has for them, together with their Love of our Country, kept this Great Championship the Safest and Most Spectacular World Cup in History, BY FAR!" "Thank you also to all others involved and, in particular, to young and dynamic Andrew Giuliani, working for the Government of the United States of America, and the fantastic President of FIFA, Gianni Infantino, on a job well done!" "Few people will ever be able to accomplish what he has done in elevating the World Cup to a level that nobody thought was possible. Congratulations to all! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

“Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.” Jesus Christ (Luke 21:24) There is a rising fervor among many Jews—as well as very confused Christians—to rebuild a “Third Temple” in Jerusalem. This man—who genuinely seems to mean well—says that doing so for the sake of the nations (“gentiles”) will usher in an era of peace, and that the Jews must have the courage to do it. He equates building the “Third Temple” with “bringing God’s presence into the world.” This should sound deeply sad to Christian ears (unfortunately, the two Christian co-hosts of this podcast nod along in apparent agreement). These words should fill us with a deep longing for the conversion of the Jewish people, who remain beloved by God for the sake of their fathers, and part of the Messiah’s family according to the flesh. Unfortunately, those who have rejected Him remain estranged from Him according to the spirit. By their rejection, these “sons of the kingdom” have been disinherited from the eternal inheritance He won for them (Matt. 8:12). The words of this Jewish man should arouse profound sadness for Christians for this, among other reasons: God’s presence has been brought into the world in a preeminent degree by His Son, the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Right now, the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of the Messiah can be encountered at every Catholic altar around the planet. The Eucharist, as prophesied by the Jewish prophet Malachi (1:11), has been offered among the Gentile nations as the once, final, and ultimate sacrifice to God for 2,000 years. Through the grace of God, received preeminently in the sacraments, God now dwells in our souls, making them small “temples” of His presence, building blocks of the larger Temple, His Church, in which He dwells forever, promising it will never be defeated by Hell. There is thus no need for a “Third Temple” in Jerusalem. There already is a Third Temple, and it is indestructible: the Body of Jesus Christ, in Heaven and on earth—the Church of the God of Israel, located not just in one nation, but in EVERY nation. We should therefore not kid ourselves: the religious and geopolitical agenda that proposes an alternative to this through a man-made “Third Temple” in the name of the God of Israel is of Antichrist. To affirm that a “Third Temple” made by the hands of men is required in order to “bring God’s presence into the world” for the sake of Jews and Gentiles is a denial that the God of Israel has ALREADY brought His presence into the world, on behalf of both Jews and Gentiles. It is to essentially claim that man’s power to build a physical temple can bring about a result that God Himself has already achieved—in an ever greater degree—through Jesus Christ, despite the best attempts of wicked Jews and Gentiles to stop Him. Fortunately, we are assured by Sacred Scripture, the Church Fathers, the Saints, and the Magisterium, that the Jews will one day say “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord” (Matt. 23:39). God has not forgotten them. They will receive Jesus Christ, in one of the most dramatic turn of events in all history. They will finally see Him for who He is. They will “look on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a first-born” (Zach. 12:10). I personally believe these Jewish converts will play a vital role in rousing lukewarm Christians throughout the apostate Gentile world to a final push of perseverance against Antichrist, “and so all Israel will be saved” (Rom. 11:26). Hallelujah. Amen.
