๐ Referee announced for 2026 #SuperCup!
We're pleased to share that Somali referee Omar Artan will officiate the highly anticipated match between PSG and Aston Villa in Salzburg.
Is This Going To Be the Worst World Cup in FIFA History?
A Somali referee denied entry because of his passport. South Africa's entire national team stranded at the airport because visas were not ready. And tickets costing up to $2.3 million.
FIFA is using dynamic pricing. Cheapest official group stage ticket: $380. Resale average: $1,600. Cheapest final ticket on FIFA's resale platform: $9,200. Front row seats at the final? Over $30,000. Four seats for the final were listed at $2.3 million each.
Fans, players, and officials are being denied entry to the US.
The 2010 South Africa World Cup and 2022 Qatar had their critics, but this?
The greatest football tournament has become the most expensive, politically tangled, and fanโunfriendly event ever.

Itumeleng Khune is one of the weakest goalkeepers Bafana Bafana ever had.
His generation didnt take us anywhere.
He struggled to take us to a single World Cup. He struggled to even qualify for AFCON
Ronwen Williams is the best goalkeeper, followed by Arendse.
Even at Club level, Kaizer Chiefs didn't win more than 2 League trophies.

โBut people look at how they won the league. They got two goals that were scored for them,โ
โPlayers that scored goals were laughing inside the field as if they have done something good

โจ๐จ๐ญ Switzerland striker Embolo, his visa went under review by (ESTA) and missed the flight
โจ๐ฎ๐ท Iran national team still havenโt received their Visaโs
๐ธ๐ด Somali referee Abdulkadir, uncertainty on his Visa issue
Omar Abdulkadir Artanโs situation genuinely saddens the heart. ๐๐ญ
The best referee on the African continent and it is unfortunate to see him stuck and still unable to secure a visa to travel for the 2026 World Cup while all other African officials have already arrived.
Omar deserves to be on that global stage on merit. He worked very hard for it.
Hopefully, FIFA, CAF, the Somali authorities and the US Embassy can urgently find a solution and ensure fairness is upheld before itโs too late. ๐ธ๐ด

๐จ World Cup squad debate ๐ฟ๐ฆโฝ
Themba Zwane is going to the World Cup despite having no goal contributions this season, while Patrick Maswanganyi (Tito), in arguably his best form, misses out โ and itโs a decision that has left many fans questioning the balance of the squad.
Thereโs no doubt about Zwaneโs legacy and what he has done for Bafana Bafana over the years. He was a key figure, a leader, and one of the most important players in the teamโs recent success. But football moves fast.
At a World Cup, you donโt build form โ you arrive ready.
Tito, on the other hand, has delivered a strong season with 14 goal contributions playing as a number 10, showing creativity, sharpness, and end product when it matters most.
This is where the debate comes in: experience vs current form. Legacy vs performance right now.
Some will say Zwaneโs experience is priceless on the biggest stage ๐
Others will argue Titoโs current form deserved a place in the squad ๐ฟ๐ฆ
Either way, the squad is final, ...Let's go Mexico๐ฅ๐ฅ
