Hey @SBSSportau ,@SBS . Can you please adopt the UK feed / coverage The American commentators are diabolical using American terms to describe the game is ruining the experience
I don't think I can handle a whole tournament of this rubbish
The World Cup is meant to unite the world, yet ahead of 2026 World Cup we’re discussing shootings, visa restrictions, and fans being unable to attend. Qatar faced a ridiculous amount of scrutiny, but now many of the same voices are silent. The double standard is hard to ignore.
FIFA confirm Omar Abdulkadir Artan can’t officiate at the World Cup after being denied entry into the United States.
The Somali referee is one of Africa’s most respected officials. Somalia's Ministry of Youth and Sports say Artan travelled with a valid US visa.
Yet Somalia is on a travel ban list introduced by President Trump’s administration.
🗣️ “FIFA is not involved in host country immigration processes, including visa adjudications, and has been informed by authorities that Mr Artan's status will not be changed at present.
“In line with previous FIFA events, a host government ultimately determines who receives a visa and who is admitted into their country.”
My purpose in the game is fulfilled ⭐️
I lived out my childhood dreams, played on the biggest stages, won the biggest trophies. Grateful to God for all of it.
To all my fans, the clubs, my teammates and my family: this will forever be ours. Thank you.
The mission is complete. Now I step into my next calling.
More of the journey to come.
Love,
Divock Origi
Suddenly all the people who cared about human rights when Russia and Qatar hosted the world cup and suddenly quiet. .. No fancy documentary from the BBC on immigrants rights. No expose on Crime in inner cities (as we saw in South Africa)
Just silence.
Qatar has held a World Cup where everyone who could afford to attend attended, wait till it's the USA hosting and they will have visa restrictions even on the players themselves 😂.
They lied about your goals, they lied about your assists, they lied about your style of play, they lied about your ability in big games, they lied about your intentions, they lied about your motion, they lied about your brand, they lied about you
🚨🗣️ Kylian Mbappé: "Three or four years ago, I liked facing Van Dijk because he had the reputation of being the best in his position, and it was true. He was a real beast."
🚨🗣️ Virgil Van Dijk on this season :
“This was the toughest season of my career. Especially on the mental level. It just kept going up and down. We almost never had the consistent feeling and level you strive for.
As a group, as a club, as a player, as a person. As a team, we had very good matches, and then suddenly things went downhill again. Then you basically can’t go on.
This year, a lot has come our way at Liverpool. From the moment I received the call with the terrible news about Diogo until the final match, in which we said goodbye to Salah and Robertson. I sat on the grass watching those two guys, with whom I had played for eight years.
I have never experienced anything like it in all those years at Liverpool. It happened the way it happened."
