"Following the comments by a South African minister that no compensation will be paid to Nigerians whose properties were lø øted or burnt, or whose lives were løst, the Nigerian government should reciprocate by appropriating the profits of South African companies operating in Nigeria, including their banks, seize the funds, and use them to compensate affected Nigerians."

🚨 José Mourinho on Argentina vs. Egypt:
“This is daylight robbery. It’s a shame what football is becoming. How do you let the play continue, allow the goal to be scored, and only then decide to go back and cancel it? If there was a foul, stop the game immediately. Don’t wait until after the goal.
Then I ask another question—why wasn’t Argentina’s first goal reviewed with the same attention when it looked very close to offside? Why was every incident involving Argentina checked, while Egypt didn’t seem to get the same treatment?
VAR is supposed to bring fairness, not confusion. Today, it looked like every important decision went in Argentina’s favour. Football deserves better.”
