Bcos this happened the same weekend as the @FIFAWorldCup finals it got lost in the noise but these young boys now deserve their turn in the sun. Well done to @minervapunjabfc youngsters not bcos they beat a Brazilian team and lifted the trophy but bcos these youngsters played across Scandinavia (lifting the Helsinki cup as well) away from home …..some of them leaving India 🇮🇳 for the very first time….different culture, climate, conditions. This experience will stay with them for LIFE! 👏🏻👏🏻 #SansPareil
Champions of Helsinki. Champions at Heart. 🏆💙
From the first whistle to the final celebration, this journey was built on belief, unity, and an unwavering desire to win.
One team. One family. One unforgettable triumph.
Helsinki Cup 2026 Champions. 🇮🇳

A drone farewell was done for Cristiano Ronaldo in his hometown in Madeira after he played his last game for Portugal 🇵🇹 against Spain in the World cup …… He really put them on the map❤️
Meet 18 year old Moussa Jacky Toure, who sent this video our way all the way from the Ivory Coast.
Take a second to look at the surface he’s training on… uneven, unpredictable, far from ideal. Now look at the touches, the control, the ability to adapt.
That’s not luck, that’s dedication!
Moussa has dreams of finding an opportunity in the game at a professional level, and what stood out most to us was his commitment to finding a way, not an excuse.
There’s something in that every footballer can learn from.
If you love the game, you find a way.
Here’s hoping Moussa finds his.
12 Indian sailors are stranded for 5 months at Al Hamriya Port, UAE, aboard the Dreamliner vessel.
After a contract transfer, they were detained by UAE Coast Guard within 13 days.
They still don’t know why; living in near hostage-like conditions, with no help from the embassy.
For folks stuck in Dubai with Indian passport, one option is to get out via muscat. Flights to India are on from there. Few tips 1) if you have US/UK visa and Indian passport, Oman visa is on arrival. Else you have to apply for evisa online 2) you book flight online to any city in india from Oman, 3) book a cab on careem/ uber from Dubai to Hatta border on UAE side. Keep 2 hours for this, 3) get off there, get uae immigration done there (there is no vat refund on this border), 4) a bus from uae will take you across to Oman and it’s complimentary, 5) get out now, a different bus takes you over across Oman. They ask for 50 AED/ person in cash, 6) this bus takes to Oman immigration, 7) once u clear Oman immigration, same bus takes you to another place where you take luggage down and get checked, 8) put luggage back and same bus takes you to a near by petrol station and drops you off, 9) either pre book a cab to muscat from there or take a cab real time from petrol station. There are enough cabs waiting here. Bargaining will happen. ATM is there for any cash you need to pay to the cab. Overall keep 2 hours for the immigration clearance process even with no lines, 10) either take a hotel in muscat or go directly to the airport. It’s about 4 hrs to muscat side of Hatta border. 11) we are just reaching muscat as i type this. Writing before the trip is over in interest of time if people are confused. Etihad has restarted some flights, so you can wait for that too if you are not in a hurry
