From the eyes of a Kenyan...

“Why I so enjoyed watching England lose the Euro final”

https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2021 ... -euro-2020

Don’t you just love Al Jazeera publishing the “unpublishable”? You’ll never find such articles making the British press, and any day now Al Jazeera may have their websites “ceased” like what happened to Press TV… or maybe they’re smart enough to not host on British or American servers.

Incidentally, I’m pleased to see that Press TV is back online both as a website and a LIVE stream. No doubt hosted in China this time… so all that the foolish US managed to achieve with their childish antics is the loss of Iran’s business to China.

The incident should also serve as a warning to other nations out there of what they can expect if they are critical of the country whose servers they are utilizing.

And so begins another round of European club-level tournaments:


2021–22 UEFA Champions League, Second qualifying round:

20th July: Dinamo Zagreb (Croatia) vs Omonia Nicosia <--- A tough one for Omonia while Dinamo is currently at its peak.


2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League, Second qualifying round:

22nd July: Apollon Limassol vs MSK Zilina (Slovakia) <-- Should be a walk in the park.

22nd July: AEL Limassol vs KF Vllaznia (Albania) <-- Should be a walk in the park.

Omonia does have a tough one. Croatio\ans are bloody strong. Tough footballers.

Not an opponent to scoff at there.

Nill-all at half time. I expected a stronger Dinamo but then again it rained throughout the first half so the match appears evenly balanced.

Omonia, defends well and made several good attempts at scoring. This could go either way or a draw.

Dinamo is not the national team of Croatia but a CLUB that employs players from all over the world, so they may not even have any Croatian players playing for them!

So knock it off with your homosexual fancy of Croatians! :?

I just checked their player list. The majority of them are Croats. There are a few foreigners as well.

Their National team is also quite strong as they produce talent or invest in their homegrown young players.

We grew up in Australia watching Croat players. They proliferated our National team as well. Had big stars like Mark Viduka etc. incredible player.
