@toys_ndjebela@Roger_Rodrigo1 The FIFAWorldCup will never fail to tell Africa the truth, the unvarnished truth, about the state of its football and its national teams. Make no mistake about thatβ¦
@Micky_right π Mind you, I have touched down in all those African countries. In the Caribbean I have been to the Bahamas for a FIFA congress but they donβt feature.
Aaron Tucker had been out of prison for seven days. He had less than $2 in his pocket and one shot at turning his life around, a job interview that morning. Then he saw a car flip over and catch fire from his bus window.
He asked the bus driver if he was going to help. "No, but if you get out I'm going to leave," the driver replied. Tucker got out anyway.
He sprinted toward the upside-down, smoke-filled car and found the 61-year-old driver covered in blood.
He unbuckled the man's seatbelt and dragged him clear as the car started to catch fire.
He pulled off his own dress shirt and used it to stop the man's head wound from bleeding, telling him: "You're going to be all right. Your family wants to see you. Keep your eyes open."
The bus left. Tucker missed his interview.
When the story got out, strangers set up a GoFundMe that raised over $50,000 in three days. He also received multiple job offers in construction.
"I feel like a job can come and go, but a life is a one-time thing," Tucker said. "The job just wasn't in my mind at that time."
π¨π΄ BREAKING NEWS:
FIFA have officially apologized for the error made during Argentina's match after Lionel Messi was not shown a red card for his controversial challenge.
According to FIFA, the referee and VAR team failed to properly review the incident despite clear contact being visible from multiple angles.
We admitted that the tackle should have been reviewed and that the officials made a mistake by allowing play to continue without disciplinary action.π΄
