🚨EXCLUSIVE: Thierry Henry says the world cup in the USA is looking like a mess, Iran says FIFA has withdrawn its World Cup ticket allocation, Somali referee Omar Artan was who was appointed by FIFA to ref in the 2026 World Cup denied entry, expensive ticket and says politcs had no business in football
"The more I look at this World Cup, the more it feels like football is fighting battles that have nothing to do with football. That's what worries me."
"We're talking about the biggest sporting event on the planet, yet the conversation isn't only about players, tactics, or the countries that qualified. It's about travel issues, ticket disputes, and politics."
"Look at the situation involving Iran. Reports say the country's ticket allocation for supporters was withdrawn just days before the tournament. Whether you're Iranian or not, fans should be part of the World Cup experience."
"Then you have the Omar Artan story. FIFA selected him because they believed he was one of the best referees in the world. He earned that opportunity on merit."
"Yet he was denied entry into the United States despite reportedly holding a valid visa. Suddenly the story stopped being about football and became about something else entirely."
"I feel for him because becoming the first Somali referee at a World Cup should have been a celebration for African football, not a controversy."
"Then there are the supporters. Many people have complained about the cost of attending matches, accommodation, and travel. The World Cup should be accessible to ordinary football fans, not only the wealthiest ones."
"Football has always been at its best when it unites people from different cultures, religions, and political backgrounds. That's the beauty of the game."
"The danger is when political disputes begin influencing who can attend, who can officiate, and how supporters experience the tournament. That is a road football should avoid."
"I still believe the World Cup will produce incredible moments, but FIFA must make sure that football remains the main story. Politics has enough stages already; the football pitch shouldn't be one of them."
Congratulations, Lionel Messi, on receiving the 2026 Princess of Asturias Award for Sports 👏
A well-deserved recognition of an extraordinary career, defined by your legendary legacy at Barça and a journey filled with success with our Club.
El Barça lleva tres o cuatro años sin gastarse un duro siendo el segundo club del mundo que más dinero ingresa al año, con un estadio nuevo en plena apertura, con salarios monstruosos como los de Lewandowski o Ansu Fati desapareciendo, registrando récords en ventas y patrocinios, además de un largo etcétera y todavía salen los imbeciles de turno a preguntarse de dónde saca el dinero el Barça, es surrealista.
Se habían malacostumbrado, pero ya estamos de vuelta. Que se jodan.
Na qualidade de Porta-Voz do MOVEMAT, cumpre-me partilhar a posição oficial da nossa direção sobre o mediático caso dos 890,00 MT.
A integridade financeira não é negociável. Solidariedade total ao irmão visado.

@sungutane_@crushdemor Sou católico, não entendo metade do que fazem. Vou rezo, não faço o que não quero e minha vida segue
Isso de procurar saber mais tem pessoas apropriadas
entrei como um universitário tapado e saio como um repórter um pouco menos tapado. foram 15 anos de formação, desenvolvimento, encontros, desencontros, realizações, alegrias e, acima de tudo, absoluta gratidão. é tão simples assim mesmo: eu não seria quem eu sou não fossem o Esporte Interativo e a TNT Sports.
correndo o risco de ser extremamente injusto com tantas pessoas que me ajudaram nessa estrada, escolho destacar três: André Henning, Vitor Sergio Rodrigues e Julia Vieira. eu não era absolutamente sombra de nada promissor e eles viram algo em mim. e eu nunca vou esquecer disso.
depois, na correspondência, fiz novos irmãos e irmãs. Carolina, Arthur, Marcelo, Tati e Clara: o meu muito obrigado por todas as coberturas, programas, cafés, cervejas, confissões e tudo do tanto que dividimos.
a vida vai mudar um pouquinho e já já trago as novidades, mas antes de chegar eu preciso sair. e não é fácil me despedir.
obrigado, TNT Sports 💛
Estou apaixonado por esta frase:
Se não acontecer da forma que você queria, vai acontecer de uma forma melhor do que você imaginou.
Essa é a beleza do plano de Deus.
