Cape Verde is made up of 10 different islands, and they're only about 500 km away from Senegal. So how can anyone claim that no one lived on the islands before the Portuguese arrived?
In New York City, if you break our worker protection laws and shortchange your workers, we will make you pay back what you owe.
Yesterday, we recovered $2.3M for 1,600 workers from Walgreens, Calzedonia, and Kinship Coffee. Since January, we have recovered more than $10 million for New York City workers. Because our City is not a billionaire's playground.
New Yorkers have the right to a regular schedule and protected time off. If your employer violates our laws, file a complaint at https://t.co/X102ohVroD and we will fight to put money back in your pocket.
Colin, I’m curious…
1. When the Somali ref was denied entry, did UEFA speak?
2. When Iran was treated poorly, did UEFA speak?
3. When African fans were denied visas - including official supporters clubs - did UEFA speak?
4. If it was Senegal, not Belgium, would UEFA speak?
“I feel so bad for Ghana fans because this guy has ruined yet another tournament for them. How he gets called up is beyond me. This guy was the only striker not to register a shot in this World Cup.”

African Teams Lack Qualities, Not Psychologists – ACL Sports Chief Editor Fisayo Dairo
The Chief Editor of ACL Sports, Fisayo Dairo, has stirred debate, stating that African teams at the 2026 World Cup lack technical and tactical qualities, not psychological support.

His comments have drawn mixed reactions as Morocco and Egypt prepare for their round of 16 matches.

Never again in your life wonder or ask why African footballers play for European & American sides.
Incompetence. Negligence. Ignorance. Corruption.
This is an absolute embarrassment to the United States. Once again our President embarrasses our nation on the world stage and now takes to social media, boosting that his phone call to FIFA changed the outcome 🤦🏻♂️
Absolutely horrible precedent being set here. As a US citizen I will be routing for Belgium to win this game. Not because I don’t love my country, but as a lifelong professional sportsman that has dedicated his career to growing sport around the world. I’ve always taught the importance of integrity and sadly the US has proven to the world we have absolutely none. Shameful
