TheSuperNerd:yea time will tell. this kid is all the more reason why we need to completely reorganise our league. when madrid paid that huge amount of money, he wasn't even in his club's starting 11. and he still makes off the bench appearances. I'd like to believe we produce similar or bigger talents. |

Distractions again.... Na wa Man City Loanee Kayode Banned For Three Games For Violent Conduct In Ukraine ![]() Manchester City loanee Olarenwaju Kayode has been banned for one match plus two matches conditionally following the incident that occurred in the Ukrainian Premier League match between his team Shakhtar Donetsk and Dynamo Kiv on April 14, 2018, writes the official website of the FFU. The Control and Disciplinary Committee of the Football Federation of Ukraine announced its decision to ban Kayode at a meeting on May 2. The Nigeria international was not shown a card for striking the head of Dynamo Kiev's number 30 Artem Shabanov in the fourth minute of stoppage time but the capital outfit sent a complaint letter to the Ukrainian Federation, requesting that Kayode should be banned for five matches. Assuming the Video Assistant Referee system was applied during the game, Kayode would have received a straight red card and suspended for a minimum of three matches. The former Golden Eaglets and Flying Eagles star will miss Shakhtar Donetsk's next competitive match against Zorya on Saturday, May 5. Kayode has had a strong start to his career at the Ukrainian champions as he has recorded three goals from five matches in all competitions. **Ifeanyi Emmanuel Photo Credit : shakhtar.com Source: http://www.allnigeriasoccer.com/read_news.php?nid=27580 Russia 2018 WC Countdown: 43 days 43 mins to go |

Extract from the telegragh Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alex Iwobi fit to travel for Arsenal's Europa League semi-final second leg By Jeremy Wilson, DEPUTY FOOTBALL CORRESPONDENT Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Alex Iwobi have both travelled to Spain this afternoon in Arsenal’s squad for their Europa League semi-final second leg against Atletico Madrid. Mkhitaryan scored on his comeback on Sunday against Manchester United following a knee ligament injury but then came off after taking a blow to his knee during the match and had been a doubt for tomorrow’s game. He has been a key figure this season in the knockout rounds of the Europa League and Arsene Wenger will be hoping that he is now available to start, probably in place of Danny Welbeck. Arsenal were so short of senior outfield options during the first leg last week at The Emirates that Wenger did not ultimately make any substitutions. Iwobi is also available and in the squad after suffering a hamstring strain and his presence will further boost the options off the bench.

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF RUSSIA. 2018 World Cup Host Cities: 1. Kaliningrad: Although its dramatic history goes back over 750 years, the city of Kaliningrad was largely destroyed during World War Two. It was promptly rebuilt and played an important part in the Cold War. As a result, the architecture is an interesting mix of old and new with the oldest building dating back to the 13th century. The city of almost 460,000 is rich in culture with a number of museums and theatres. Its appeal extends to nature lovers as well, as the region has plenty of pristine beaches and untouched forests. Its location just south of Lithuania on an inlet of the Baltic Sea results in a mild climate, with June and July conveniently being the best time to visit. Fans taking in a game in Kaliningrad will be treated to a brand new venue, Kaliningrad Stadium. The design of the new stadium is based on Allianz Arena in Munich, which hosted some World Cup games of its own in 2006. See also the matches to be played here: 2 Likes

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF RUSSIA. 2018 World Cup Host Cities: 2. Kazan Kazan is a lively university city (population 1.3 million) with one of the highest standards of living in Russia, In fact, it could be considered one of the most widely appealing cities on the World Cup schedule in 2018. Tourism here is on the rise with plenty to see from historical buildings (Kazan recently celebrated its millennium) to live opera or ballet to trendy restaurants and boutiques. As one of Russia’s sports capitals, it’s a fantastic city to spend time in during the World Cup. Kazan Arena, completed in 2013, is a modern entertainment venue, complete with offices, corporate event space, a variety of food options, shopping and a fitness area; no wonder it’s also known as a ‘city in the city.’ The unique arena seats around 45,000 and is easily recognizable due to its massive HD screen adorning the front of the building.

Danielnino00: I will not accuse any nigeria player of age cheat because south americans are the worst,you hardly see a south american with real age. And concerning the MRI scan,i dont know how to type it,you can be 23 years old and pass the test of a MRI for 18 which is just five years difference,so a player who reduce 5 years difference can pass but not 10 years different. Example if i am 23 years old i will pass the MRI for 17-18 but if i am 28 upwards hello NO 1 Like |

SIGHTS AND SOUND OF RUSSIA 3. MOSCOW HOST STADIUMS Luzhniki Stadium and Spartak Stadium With twice as many people as its closest competitor (Saint Petersburg), Moscow is the largest city in Russia. It’s modern, yet steeped in history and this attractive combination is a big reason it sees more than 4 million tourists every year. For most visitors, Red Square is the first stop in Moscow but there is so much more to see in this global city. While the mere mention of Moscow conjures up an image of ice and snow for many, the summers are warm but not too hot, perfect for sightseeing or taking in a match. Moscow is the only city at this World Cup with more than one venue. Spartak Stadium (also known as Otkritie Arena) is the newer of the two, having opened in 2014 with capacity for 45,000 spectators. Home to the Spartak Football Club, the stadium’s distinctive red and white exterior pays homage to the team. The iconic Luzhniki Stadium is both the oldest and largest stadium in the tournament and will host the opening match, a semifinal and the World Cup Final on July 15th. This 81,000-seat stadium has witnessed plenty of history in the making, including the 1980 Summer Games. See games to be played in Moscow. 3 Likes 1 Share

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF RUSSIA: 4. Nizhny Novgorod With a growing population of 1.3 million, Nizhny Novgorod (or more commonly Nizhny) is Russia’s fifth-largest city and one of the country’s business, transportation, and cultural capitals. Beautiful Nizhny is located at the confluence of the Volga and the Oka Rivers. Though there are over 600 historic, architectural, and cultural monuments to explore, the highlight is the city’s Kremlin. This impressive 500-year-old fortress overlooking the Volga is surrounded by an equally impressive 2-kilometer wall. Like many of the 2018 World Cup Stadiums, Nizhny Novgorod Stadium is currently under construction and scheduled to open shortly before the tournament. Nizhny’s brand new stadium will boast one of the best locations in the city, overlooking the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral where the Volga and Oka Rivers meet.

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF RUSSIA 5. Rostov-on-Don This modern city of over 1 million inhabitants could almost be described as eccentric. Where else can you find monuments to a water pipe or newspaper reader? Though Rostov-On-Don may have its idiosyncrasies, it really is a fun and unique place to visit; take a scenic stroll along the riverside; spend an afternoon shopping for anything and everything at the Central Rinok (Bazaar), or take in a performance at the Rostov State Opera and Ballet. Rostov Arena is currently under construction on the left bank of the River Don and is expected to be the start of development on that side of the river. This stadium, which is scheduled to be completed in late 2017 will be home to the Premier League’s Rostov Football Club. See games to be played here 4 Likes 1 Share

SIGHTS AND SOUND OF RUSSIA 6. Saint Petersburg Second only to Moscow in size, Saint Petersburg is a picturesque port city on the Baltic Sea. Though it has long lived under the shadow of its larger counterpart, St. Petersburg has emerged as an appealing destination in its own right with a burgeoning arts and music scene. This modern city has 342 bridges atop its rivers and canals, not surprisingly earning it comparisons to Venice. The city is a feast for the senses, one of the highlights being the Hermitage Museum and the Winter Palace complex, which houses over 3 million pieces of art from around the globe. Future home to FC Zenit Saint Petersburg, Saint Petersburg Stadium opened in April 2017, nine years after construction began. The design of the stadium was decided by a competition, which was won by Kisho Kurokawa Architect & Associates for their ’spaceship’ submission. The arena has a retractable roof and holds close to 70,000 fans, one of the largest in the tournament. See games to be played here 4 Likes 1 Share

SIGHTS AND SOUND OF RUSSIA 7. Samara Most people don’t associate Russia with beaches but Samara’s lovely beaches may just be the city’s biggest attraction. During the warm summer months, locals and visitors alike gather on the sandy shores of the Volga to sunbathe, swim, or stroll along the beach. It’s a great atmosphere with plenty of cafés and beer tents to be found. If the beach isn’t your thing, this city of almost 1.2 million has plenty of other attractions to take in during your World Cup experience. Construction on the ambitious Samara Arena began in July 2015 with completion scheduled in the summer of 2017. Complete with a monorail that will shuttle fans to and from the matches, the stadium will be an architectural marvel. It is designed to resemble a gem, an 80-meter high dome of translucent glass panels. Samara Arena will seat approximately 45,000 people and will be home to the Premier League’s Krylia Sovetov Samara Football Club. See games to be played in Samar 1 Like 1 Share

SIGHTS AND SOUNDS OF RUSSIA 8. Saransk With a population of just under 340,000, Saransk will be one of the smaller host cities at the 2018 World Cup. What it lacks in size, it makes up for in beauty. Located on the Saranka River, this European-influenced city has plenty of historical buildings, theaters, museums, and well-maintained parks. Saransk is also well-known for its sporting achievements, and is the hometown of many Olympic and World champions. Specially for the World Cup, the city of Saransk is building an arena much bigger than they would otherwise need. Seating capacity for the World Cup will be in the 45,000 range, though the upper level seating will later be dismantled, resulting in a permanent seating capacity of approximately 28,000. The empty space will be filled with shops and leisure space. Located on the banks of the River Insar, Mordovia Arena’s design is built to resemble a solar sphere and is will make an exciting new addition to the city’s central core.

SIGHTS AND SOUND OF RUSSIA 9. Sochi Sports fans will fondly remember Sochi as the successful host of the 2014 Winter Games. It’s Russia’s largest resort city, flanked by the majestic Caucasus Mountains and the Black Sea. As the southernmost city at the 2018 World Cup, it has a mild climate that attracts hundreds of thousands of tourists every year. It’s a great place to try your hand at some adventure sports like mountain climbing or hang-gliding but also an idyllic spot to relax and lounge by the pool. Home to the Opening and Closing Ceremonies at the 2014 Winter Games, the 48,000 seat Fisht Stadium will host 4 group stage matches, as well as a round of 16 match and a quarter-final match. The roof of the stadium, which was designed to look like snowy peaks for the Winter Games, has been partially removed to open it up for the World Cup tournament.

SIGHTS AND SOUND OF RUSSIA 10.Volgograd Formerly known as Stalingrad, the city is perhaps best known for the infamous battle that took place there during the second World War. Since then, the city was completely rebuilt and renamed. Present-day Volgograd has plenty to see and do. A visit to the Mamayev Kurgan memorial complex is a must-do, but the city is also well-known for its eco-tourism (due to its proximity to the Volga-Akhtubin floodplains) and its magnificent Soviet Baroque architecture. Volgograd Arena is currently under construction on the site of its old stadium, which was recently demolished to make room. During the preparation phase, a thorough inspection of the building site had to be conducted after a number of unexploded WWII bombs were found in the vicinity. This modern-looking stadium will have capacity for 45,000 fans and a unique roof which will be held in place with steel cables, similar to the method used in suspension bridges.

SIGHTS AND SOUND OF RUSSIA 11. Ekaterinburg With a population of 1.3 million, Ekaterinburg is Russia’s fourth largest city but it tops the list when it comes to unusual attractions. Among them are the mafia cemetery (complete with graves decorated with life-size images of late mafia members), and the circus building which is home to exactly the kinds of shows one would expect upon hearing the name. The strangest attraction however, is the QWERTY Monument, a giant keyboard replica built out of concrete blocks. When Ekaterinburg Arena (aka Central Stadium) first opened in 1957, its seating capacity of 27,000 made it one of the largest in the world. While no one would describe the stadium as such in the present day, the stadium remains impressive nonetheless, and is one of only a few existing stadiums that will host World Cup matches in 2018. It is currently undergoing an extensive renovation (scheduled to be completed in late 2017) in preparation for the iconic tournament. The improvements include the addition of over 8,000 seats, 2 new metro lines, a press center, as well as improvements to the food vendors and security system. 2 Likes 1 Share
