Nico Williams es campeón del mundo. Y tras la premiación, va directo a la tribuna a entregarle la medalla a su madre. Ella, que en 1994 salió de Ghana y cruzó parte del Sahara para poder llegar a España en busca de nuevas oportunidades.
Una campeona más.
🚨🎙️ Micah Richards on Manchester United’s pre-season friendly against Wrexham:
🗣️ “One thing that has always surprised me about Manchester United…
How is a pre-season friendly against Wrexham getting more attention than a World Cup third-place playoff between England and France? 😂
We’re talking about the World Cup…
And people are still more interested in a pre-season friendly.
It just shows the level of attention Manchester United generates, whether they’re winning trophies or not.
Love them or hate them, they always dominate the headlines.” 😭
She's been at our shelter since 2013. Eleven years. Every person who met her said she was wonderful. Every person walked past her kennel and chose a younger dog. She stopped coming to the front of her kennel a few years ago. Stopped performing. Made a quiet peace with being where she was." Last Tuesday a veteran came in. He said — "I need a calm dog. I'm still learning how to be still myself." I showed him three dogs. He was putting his jacket on to leave. He stopped outside kennel seven. Luna looked at him from her bed. Didn't perform. Didn't come to the front. Just looked at him the way she looks at people when she decides they're worth seeing. He said — "Can I sit with her?" He sat on the concrete floor at her level. Not the bench. The floor. That was 11am. At 3pm I looked in. He was still there. Her white muzzle was in his hand. Their breathing had synchronized. At 3:15 he came to the front desk and said — "I'd like to take her home. I think we need each other." I excused myself to the back room and sat on an overturned bucket and cried for a long time. He texted me yesterday — "First time I've slept through the night in three years. I think she was saving that for me." She was. Eleven years of saving it. For one Tuesday. For him. Drop a ❤️ for Luna. Share this for every senior dog still waiting for their Tuesday. They're saving everything they have for the right person to walk through that door.
Mateus Fernandes and Andrey Santos are two players I’ve known long before their arrivals in England (see both screenshots).
Two players with different profiles, but both very talented.
If I had to choose one for us, I’d definitely go with Santos because he suits us better.
I understand why we went for Fernandes first- he had the chance to play regularly last season, but I’m more than happy we ended up with Santos.
