๐ฉ๐ช๐ง๐ท Miroslav Klose on Germany's 7-1 demolition of Brazil at the 2014 World Cup:
๐ฃ๏ธ Klose: "Did we have pity for the Brazilians? No, I don't think so.
Do I often think about that match? It will always be talked about... It's not every day you SCORE FOUR GOALS IN SIX MINUTES!
They didn't have time to breathe: we kept winning the ball back constantly to score again. It was so fast that only afterward did we realise we'd scored four goals in six minutes.
I thought much more time had passed!"
โThe waters have risen and severe storms are upon us, but we do not fear drowning, for we stand firmly upon a rock. Let the sea rage, it cannot break the rock. Let the waves rise, they cannot sink the boat of Jesus. What are we to fear? Death? Life to me means Christ, and death is gain. Exile? The earth and its fullness belong to the Lord. The confiscation of goods? We brought nothing into this world, and we shall surely take nothing from it. I have only contempt for the worldโs threats, I find its blessings laughable. I have no fear of poverty, no desire for wealth. I am not afraid of death nor do I long to live, except for your good. I concentrate therefore on the present situation, and I urge you, my friends, to have confidence.โ
๐ซ๐ท๐ฑ Olivier Giroud: "I texted Kylian Mbappe straight after France's win over Senegal when he broke my record to become the all-time record goalscorer for Les Bleus with 58 goals."
"I wrote: 'Congrats bro, I am really happy for you. Well, I kept the record for three-and-a-half years, and it was great - but now it is yours, and you have to go again... oh, and bro, don't forget to save me your jersey!'."
"We haven't caught up yet but I've spoken to one of the coaching staff and he said Kylian told him to tell me he got my text, and he will call me soon."
"Kylian had already promised me he would give me the shirt he was wearing when he overtook my total, and I will be asking for it again when I speak to him." โค๏ธ (BBC)
To know Barack and Michelle is to understand: They have always believed that leadership is about leaving something behind that empowers others.
Today's opening of the Obama Presidential Center reflects that vision. It will continue to invest in future generations and encourage people to see themselves as part of something bigger.
Congratulations, my friends. What a remarkable day.
