You cant blame Messi for this. He is just a footballer. The referee is the one who violated the code of conduct.
The problem with all this bias in his favour is that it is making people question his legacy. His legacy is untouchable. If you want to blame anyone, blame the institution.
We watched Messi play. His talent and impact will never be dismissed. He will always be the GOAT. I think the problem people have is that, he doesn't need extra favours with the talent he possesses. Again, that is not his fault. Blame the institution.
You cannot blame Messi IF the sport is being rigged in his favour. He is simply a beneficiary of the system. He didn't ask to be favoured or pay to be favoured. IF the rigging does exists, it exists at the plessure of the FIFA President.
Like I've always said, Messi has nothing to prove to anybody. He has dominated the game for 20 years, it is not Spain and France that are his problem. His legacy is untouchable.
People are right to question a bias they think exists to serve him. It is not just football, it is the heart of millions of people back home cheering for the national team only to be destroyed by political interference from the governing body. It is not even good for him because they unknowingly instigating hate against someone that has defined an era with brilliance, colour, and excellence.
The game is more important than anybody - even the President.
France, the strong team with the potential to win the tournament, is facing poor officiating from the referees and nothing could be done by the FIFA..
I'm not surprised because FIFA president said he suffered with Argentina in their last match. 3/3
Initially I don't want to join the mobs in believing the conspiracy theory that the 2026 FIFA World Cup has been designed to be won by Argentina π¦π·. Because I believe every winner always gets lucky and the universe always aligns with winners and loser always make excuses.

Trump on Balogun:
Balogun is our best player. He got a red card. I didn't know what that meant, but then I heard that it means you cannot play in the next game.
That's very unfair. How do you penalize him for a game that hasn't been played yet?
I asked for a review by FIFA.
However, since the way FIFA rules and regulations have been publicly abberated and politicized by the USA president, in view of this, it shouldn't be argued if this is a scripted tournament, as it getting obvious. 2/3
RIVERS YOUTH FOUND 18 YEARS AFTER DISAPPEARANCE
Gospel Kinanee, at 14 years old, left home one night and never returned. His family says their search for him took them to police stations, but to no avail.
His brother says the correctional centre where he has now been found was visited twice during the search.
With no formal trial or access to legal representation, the young Ogoni man, who went missing in 2007, was one of 21 inmates released from the Port Harcourt Correctional Centre when the Chief Judge of Rivers State, Justice Simeon Amadi, flagged off the Rivers State Jail Delivery Exercise.
His family named him Gospel Kinanee, but the correctional centre has him in its records as Baridi Sunday.
Gospel Kinanee's mental health is now the subject of litigation.

Warning β warning β warning β
To all MTN Nigeria @MTNNG subscribers. Before you read this post, Dail *305# on your line to see where MTN has secretly placed you.
Early this morning i discovered that MTN Nigeria is secretly subscribing their customers to things they never applied for, and they are doing it in the middle of the night when their customers are less active with their phones. The worst part of it is that, they set all these dubious subscriptions on auto renewal every midnight when you are fast asleep or less active with your phone. They will be deducting money every midnight from your account, without you even noticing. They are taking this advantage because they know Nigerians don't read messages from telecommunication companies. We just ignore, cancel, delete, or swipe without paying true attention to details, so they are capitalizing on that. They also know customers will not notice their tricks easily.
On the 23rd of june 2026, at about 12:01 am, MTN Nigeria @MTNNG sent me a message without me even noticing. The message reads "Dear customer, you have successfully subscribed to MEGA WINS - SLOT DAILY and NO deduction from your account. Your service will be renewed on 24/06/2026/ 00:01"
On the 24th of June 2026, at about 12:06 am, MTN Nigeria sent me a message, but this time i noticed it because of something. The message reads "Dear customer, your subscription to MEGA WINS - SLOT DAILY has been renewed successfully and 100 Naira deducted from your account. This service will expire and auto renew on 25/06/2026/ 00:06"
MTN Nigeria, i did not subscribe to MEGA WINS - SLOT DAILY, I have never subscribed, i can never subscribe, and i will never subscribe to MEGA WINS - SLOT DAILY. Surprisingly you people intentionally stole my 100 naira from my account, which cost me a 4 billion naira property business deal that i was supposed to seal. I woke up by midnight to call my client based on the appointment i had, but was shocked to notice that my credit has been dubiously deducted without my consent. I couldn't make the call, i couldn't reach the client, so i lost the business. But i must see to the end of this secret thievery.

For those that will say 100 naira is too small or nothing to complain about, listen to this.
MTN has 96.4 million active subscribers in Nigeria. If they should
successfully pull this secret midnight subscription scam with daily auto renewal on just 2 million of their subscribers for 30 days, it's a whooping 6 billion naira in illegal returns. If they do it for 12 months, it's a massive 72 billion naira in illegal returns.
If you are a telecom lawyer, kindly send me a DM. π
π 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.
At the moment and due to the security situation in the country, I do think that:
1. NYSC should not post people too far away from their state of origin or residence. If possible, the DG of NYSC should consider suspending NYSC posting for the time being.
2. Law school should consider suspending posting or post people to not to far away campuses from their state of origin or residence.
3. The Body of Benchers should consider virtual call to bar for bar aspirants as opposed to mandatory physical call to bar ceremony in Abuja.
The above have become necessary due the spate of kidnapping of travellers across different states. Covid_19 has shown the world how itβs possible to make life easier for people and still get things done the best possible way.
