Gustavo Alfaro, técnico do Paraguai, após a derrota para França.
"Eu disse aos jogadores: 'Vamos enfrentar jogadores que brigam pela Bola de Ouro, pela artilharia histórica do Mundial'. Nós temos garotos que não conheceram seus pais. Que passaram por dramas severos. Mas apesar de tudo, nós podemos. Antes, Galarza não podia jogar no River, mas pode jogar contra Alemanha e França. Ele pode jogar em qualquer equipe do mundo. O Gill teve que vender suas roupas para salvar a vida da filha. Que equipe do mundo não quer ter um goleiro como ele?
Eu queria tentar uma revolução no Paraguai. Podíamos fazê-la através do Mundial. Queria chegar mais longe, era algo que senti internamente, por isso morro com essa dor."

His name was Brigadier Mohammad Usman.
At Partition, Pakistan wanted him. He was one of the finest Muslim officers in the army, and he was offered seniority and a future in the new Pakistan he could not have dreamed of in India.
He said no.
Twelve days short of his 36th birthday, he died fighting for India instead.
He was born on 15 July 1912 in Azamgarh, the son of a police officer. When he was twelve, a child fell into a well in his village. Usman jumped in and pulled him out. The rope tore his hands open. He carried those scars for the rest of his life.
He trained at Sandhurst, one of the few Indians the British allowed to become officers.
Then came Partition. His regiment, the Baluch, was sent to Pakistan. Almost every Muslim officer went with it. Usman was urged to go too, and offered rank and promotion in the new army.
His answer was simple. He was born in India. He would die in India.
Late 1947. Pakistani raiders poured into Kashmir and took Jhangar, planning to hand it over as a prize. Usman was sent to hold Nowshera.
His own men, raw from Partition, doubted whether a Muslim commander would be loyal. He made "Jai Hind" the greeting of his brigade and swore he would not sleep on a bed until Jhangar was retaken.
6 February 1948. Eleven thousand attackers hit Nowshera from every side. His outnumbered men did not break.
Nearly a thousand of the enemy lay dead by the end. Thirty-three Indians fell. They began calling him the Lion of Nowshera. Pakistan put a bounty of fifty thousand rupees on his head.
3 July 1948. Evening at Jhangar. He had just finished his prayers and was meeting his officers when a shell landed near his post. He died within minutes.
He was the highest-ranking Indian officer killed in that war.
Nehru and his cabinet came to the funeral. Maulana Azad led the prayers. He was given the Maha Vir Chakra. He lies buried at Jamia Millia Islamia in Delhi.
A man who was offered a future in one country, and chose to die for another.
Lamine Yamal’s new girlfriend, Inés García, on how she started dating Lamine: 👀🥹❤️
“I met Lamine completely by accident. I was waiting for my friend at a café when this guy asked if the seat next to me was free.
We ended up talking while we waited. He was funny, polite, and so easy to be around. Not once did he mention football or act like someone famous. I just thought, ‘He’s actually really sweet.’
Before we left, he asked for my number. We started texting every day, and every now and then he’d disappear because he had ‘training.’ I never questioned it.
Then one evening my little cousin was watching football highlights and suddenly started screaming, ‘That’s Lamine Yamal!’
I looked at the TV, looked at my phone, then looked at the TV again.
I couldn’t believe the same guy I’d been talking to for weeks was one of the biggest football stars in the world.
When I asked him why he never told me, he just smiled and said, ‘I wanted you to get to know me first, not my name.’ ❤️😭
They will record those videos and claim them to be from India then they would post on Chinese SMs and the rest of the job would be done by CCP propagandists.
A large number of Chinese citizens have started entering Dhaka, Bangladesh. Posing as bloggers, they are filming everywhere, even entering people's homes without permission.
They flee as soon as they see journalists. They are reportedly involved in gambling and online scams in Bangladesh.
