The “This Is Football” doc has great segment of Pep Guardiola watching his Barcelona game tape and adressing idea that Messi walks lazily around the pitch:
“He’s walking. That’s what I like the most. He is not out of the game, he’s involved. He’s moving his head. Right, left, left, right. He knows exactly what is going to happen. But his head is always…moving.
He’s not running, but he’s always watching what’s happening. He smells where are the weak points in the back four. After 5-10 minutes, he has the map in his eyes…in his brain to know exactly where is the space and what is the panorama.
It’s like being in the jungle and I have to survive. And he knows if I move here or here, I will have more space to attack."
People usually think that when siblings go to court, it must be about inheritance or land disputes. But this true story from Saudi Arabia is completely different and truly moves the heart
An elderly man named Hizam Al-Ghamdi had to stand in court against his own younger brother and they were not fighting over money but instead, each of them insisted on taking responsibility for caring for their frail, elderly mother
Hizam argued strongly that he wanted to continue caring for his mother as he had always done saying that she was his very life but his younger brother disagreed believing that Hizam himself was already old and needed res
The courtroom became emotional as both brothers pleaded before the judge for the honour of caring for their mother
Unsure of what to decide the judge brought their mother in and asked her to choose and her answer touched everyone—she said she could not choose because both of her sons were like her left and right eyes
Since the mother could not decide the judge had to rule based on reason
The court eventually granted custody to the younger brother due to his younger age and greater strength
When the decision was announced the atmosphere became sorrowful as Hizam broke down in tears
He did not cry out of fear or anger but because he felt he had "lost" the precious opportunity to continue serving his mother in her remaining days
