๐จ๐๏ธNuno Mendes on his brilliant free-kick against Uzbekistan:
"We practice these situations in training. So when we won the free-kick, my first thought was that Cristiano would take it. But he looked at me and said, 'Go on, you've got this. Don't overthink it.'
Bruno came over as well and told me to take it.
The moment the ball hit the back of the net, I was really excited. Cristiano and Bruno were the first to run over and celebrate with me, and that made the goal even more special. It's a moment I'll never forget
@BongsMahlangu_ As a man whoโs paid for everything, itโs never worth it fellas. Let her invest in the relationship too. You get no extra cool points for being the boss, but asked for more ๐
๐จ๐ต๐น Cristiano: โI know that whoever works hard, God helps him. It was a tough week, a dark one, it started as if I had retired from footballโ.
But I held on as I always hold on because I believe in work more than football. It was tough, I have to admit, but we came backโ.

Una want bully me because I be newcomer. I no gree. I will speak what I know while "knowing."
My studying is to be approved unto God, not to people. If I see something that I believe by God needs my inquisition or positional statement, I'll speak.
To add: even if someone has studied for 3 years, some of these reformed brothers still says they've not studied enough. At least we were here when Brother Sammie threw that at Brother Lekan.
And even if someone has studied in proper institutes like AGO, some of these reformed brethren will find problems with their views. Brother Moh said this yesterday.
The problem is not length or breadth of scholarship. Is that except we agree, we're wrong. And when we happen to be right, they disagree because how are we right when we've not studied for years.
So whether I speak or I remain silent to speak years later, the conclusion is likely the same. Scholarship is not the issue. The issue is the issue.
