🇧🇷 Brazil football match sets Guinness record with 51 red cards
The referee sent off 43 players and 8 coaches.
Players used chairs and stretchers and attacked those already on the ground. Six ball boys reportedly joined the fight. Only the police managed to separate them.
The brawl erupted in the second half of the Minas Gerais U20 state championship game between Uberlândia and Mamoré and lasted nearly 40 minutes.
Tel Aviv was founded by moderate Zionists in 1909.
The Ottomans ethnically cleansed it of Jews during WWI, but they were able to return when the British Mandate was established. It florished and boomed a hundred years ago. Eclectic art deco and Bauhaus architecture provided modest, practical and rather egalitarian apartment buildings. The commerce and culture nurtured a growing tide of migrants and many refugees, fleeing the Bolsheviks and the Nazis.
Look at their great grandkids today. TLV is young. A large number of these people are employed in the high tech economy, keeping everyone else afloat, assorted fanatics included.
Despite the national calamities they experienced as young adults, many here would support liberal democracy. They tend to be more interested in social justice than their US peers. A few prioritize dialogue with the Palestinians, and most will probably vote for the Change Bloc parties on 27 October.
Tel Aviv will have to beat Jerusalem this time around. It is becoming a matter of survival.
After the “Zionism is Racism” UN motion spearheaded by the Soviet Bloc & Arab League in 1975 (repealed in 1990), there was a concentrated campaign at universities around the UK to ban Jewish societies.
Not Israel societies.
Jewish societies.
We know where stuff like this leads.

Italian sportswear brand Givova has officially presented the new referee kit collection for the Associazione Italiana Arbitri (AIA) ahead of the 26-27 season. The kits will be worn by match officials across Serie A, Serie B, and other Italian professional competitions.
Rather than opting for standard pitch-side or athletic studio photography, Givova launched the collection with an unconventional lifestyle and fashion editorial. The campaign models are styled mixing the official polyester referee shirts with baggy denim jeans, pleated trousers, and high heels, turning functional officiating apparel into a striking streetwear look.
The 26-27 Givova referee jersey collection is available in four distinct colorways: Fluo (fluorescent yellow), Tiffany (turquoise), Fucsia (vibrant pink), and classic Black. Each shirt incorporates a subtle all-over geometric pattern on the body, paired with clean crew collars and Italian tricolor flag detailing on the cuffs. The Givova branding and AIA emblem are centrally aligned on the chest, accompanied by chest pocket slots and Net Insurance sleeve badges.
Addio a Franco Baresi, protagonista delle grandi sfide del Derby di Milano e una delle figure che più hanno definito la storia della rivalità. Capitano, uomo squadra e bandiera del Milan, ha vissuto ogni confronto con l’Inter tra competizione e rispetto, dentro una sfida che ha scritto pagine indimenticabili del calcio italiano.
Il Presidente Giuseppe Marotta e tutta FC Internazionale Milano si stringono attorno alla famiglia Baresi, al fratello Beppe e all'AC Milan in questo momento di dolore.
@FabrizioRomano 😢 one-club icon with AC Milan - fantastic CB who only ran when needed and a charismatic captain - having won several UEFA Champions Leagues 🏆 + 1 FIFA World Cup 🇮🇹 RIP
Wild history: "Father of Modern China" Sun Yat-Sen was once a legally recognized US citizen!
Born in Guangdong (1866), a 1904 Hawaii birth certificate stated he was born in Hawaii in 1870. A 1910 photo shows him holding his "official" age (40) upon entry 🧵
