Sports / What Messi Said After Argetina Lost To Brazil by principal21(m): 7:26am On Jul 03, 2019 |
Lionel Messi’s hopes of winning an international trophy with Argentina this year was cut short by the Samba Boys of Brazil after La Albiceleste fell to a 2-0 loss in Belo Horizonte. After the game, Messi who is known to very reserved to making daring comments surprised many football fans by accusing the referees of favouring the host nation as Argentina crashed out of the competition in the semi-final stage. The Albiceleste once again fell short and their superstar player appears to have laid some of the blame on officials. The Argentina captain again failed to have a decisive impact in the match for his nation compared to how he performs for his club side Barcelona as Brazil took the most of their opportunities with goals to Manchester City stars Gabriel Jesus and Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino in either half, sealing a place in the final against either Chile or Peru. But the Barcelona captain was scathing of the performance from the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) and the centre referee Roddy Zambrano, using a post-match interview to criticise the decision to not award a penalty to Sergio Aguero just prior to Firmino’s 71st minute strike. “They were not better than us. They found the net early and the second goal came from a penalty [to Aguero] they didn’t award,” Messi told reporters. “They [the officials] had booked a lot of bullsh*t, but they didn’t even check the VAR, that’s incredible. “That happened all over the game. At the first glance of contact, they ruled in their [Brazil’s] favour and this kind of bullsh*t distracted us from the game. “There is no excuses for us, but we need to review this, analyse it and let’s hope CONMEBOL does something about it. “I think we played a great game. We made a great effort and they were not superior to us.” Argentina had 10 more shots at Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson than their opponents managed in attack (14-4) and struck the woodwork twice as they came agonisingly close to getting back into the contest. Aguero looped a header onto the crossbar with Alisson well-beaten in the first-half shortly after Jesus earned the lead and Messi slammed a shot into the post in the second period after Lautaro Martinez’s drive was blocked. The Selecao took both of their chances clinically, only having four shots for the match, as Jesus and Firmino both side-footed into the net from close range after being teed up by the other. Brazil will now host the winner of Wednesday’s semi-final between Chile and Peru in a final to be hosted on Sunday at the great Maracana Stadium. They will be aiming to win their first Copa America since triumphing in Venezuela during the 2007 edition. 1 Like |

Sports / What Lionel Messi Said After Argentina's Loss To Colombia by principal21(m): 10:22am On Jun 16, 2019 |
It was another sad day for Lionel Messi on the international scene as his country Argentina lost to Colombia 2-0 in their opening game of the on going Copa America which is held in Brazil. After the game, Messi sends message to his teammates and the entire nation claiming there is no time for Argentina to complain after their shock loss to their first opponent in the tournament Colombia. In the continuation of his reaction, the Barcelona captain believes the Albiceleste are still in control of their destiny after a disappointing loss in their tournament opener something most fans will slightly disagree due to how they played the game. After an unexciting first half with both teams failing to find the net as tackles were just flying in, Argentina went down after the break to two well taken goals by Colombia. Two substitutes got the goals for Carlos Queiroz led team. Roger Martinez opened the scoring with an unstoppable drive in the 72nd minute before substitute Duvan Zapata finished off a good team move with four minutes of the game remaining. Despite the setback for Argentina in their first game, the Blaugrana’s forward still believes there is time for his country to turn things around in the tournament as he seeks for a first international title with Argentina. “There are positives to come out of this, we are ready to accept the challenge that we have,” Messi said after the game. “There is no time to complain, we have to look ahead, we have to raise our heads and continue, there’s still a lot of the tournament left. “They kept the ball well but didn’t create clear opportunities, but when we took a step forwards in the second half they scored a goal. “When we were playing at our best, they scored a great goal and it cost us.” Messi also spoke on behalf of the Argentine squad claiming that his team will learn from the defeat, their first in regular time in the competition since going down do Brazil in 2007. “We’ll take it as a lesson for the upcoming games. We continue to depend on ourselves. “It’s not easy to start with a loss, but if we beat Paraguay, we go back to a comfortable situation.” The Albiceleste’s game against Paraguay is on June 19, and they finish their Group B campaign with a match against Copa America invitee, Qatar. Messi has seen his country advance to the final in the last two editions of the tournament. In each match they were defeated by Chile on penalties. |

Politics / Done In Sixteen Years: How Bukola Saraki Turned Out Not To Be His Father's Son by principal21(m): 11:00pm On Mar 10, 2019 |
Only sixteen years since he first won an election, he's politically finished; stranded with no allies- except for Dino Melaye. When he became a senator after a two-term tenure as governor of Kwara State, Olubukola Saraki had just defeated the toughest opponent of his political career- his own father. The late Olusola Saraki, known as Baba Oloye in Ilorin where he held court like a medieval monarch, was publicly humiliated by his son who took every lesson he had learned since childhood and used it against his own family. If anybody cried for him after he lost his Senate seat in last Saturday’s election, it would have been associates like Dino Melaye. He certainly got no tears from his own family, the so-called-but-now-extinct Saraki dynasty. By the time Saraki Senior died a year after his son essentially ended his political career, he was a broken man whose body had been ravaged by five years of cancer and worse still, aware of the fact that his two oldest children, Bukola and Gbemi may never speak to each other again. Rumour has it that Baba Oloye placed a curse on ‘Bukola in 2011 after the outgoing governor insisted on re-routing their family process. Saraki was a kingmaker; since his Senate tenure ended with Buhari’s 1983 coup, he had been instrumental in appointing who became what in Kwara State. By 2003, he had decided that it was time for his son to become governor and for his daughter to become Senator. His plan was to reverse the roles at the end of the term- Bukola a Senator and Gbemi, the first female governor of the state. But by then, the son had become the father of the man and he defied his father. 2011 saw Bukola not only winning his election to the 7th Senate, but his friend Abdulfatah Ahmed also replaced him as governor while his sister and father came third through their newly formed party, in the gubernatorial elections. Legend has it that the elder Saraki cursed the younger Saraki thus: “As you have disgraced me, you will be disgraced out of politics.” There’s no proof that that actually happened, but the loss of Olubukola Saraki at Saturday’s polls leads credence to the fact that although he may have positioned himself as a political stalwart of sorts, he definitely is not his father. Bukola Saraki never hid his lofty ambitions. Political ambition is one thing, political savvy is another. When he knocked off the structure on which his father had built in Kwara since the ’80s, he must have thought he had acquired the latter. And it looked like he had. Unshackled by his father’s large shadow, he collaborated with the all-conquering APC which ended sixteen years of PDP rule. Of course, he had his own clout- Kwara State delivered three hundred thousand votes for President Buhari, not to talk of billions of naira in campaign funds, and won all nine national assembly seats. However no sooner than he had made new friends that he outmanoeuvred them (or so it seemed). He wasn’t the preferred choice as Senate President but here he was, no longer the fresh-faced London trained doctor he had been when he started politics in 2003 and euphoric from his recent political patricide; he defied the party hierarchy and pretty much installed himself as the third highest-ranking public officer. Baba Oloye would not have played it like that. Whilst he pretty much had the final say in his lifetime, he made a big show of consulting with his followers. Every group was listened to and when it seemed as if they wouldn’t get their desires at that time, they were placated with something else. It wasn’t for nothing that his Ile Arugbo home was besieged daily by the party faithfuls. He was their father, end of. Bukola burnt bridges at every step of his political career. Before his father died, he had said that Gbemi was in fact, his successor, not his first son- a sentiment echoed by another Saraki sibling, Laolu in 2015. It was his collaboration with Tinubu and Buhari that was supposed to mark his independence from his father. Rather, before the ink was dry he had jumped ship. He abandoned the APC and returned to the PDP. As he struggled to fight off the onslaught from the executive, he also was angling himself for a 2019 run for the presidency. That would have been poetic, wouldn’t it? President Olubukola Saraki!!!!! Except that a more experienced politician, Atiku Abubakar was also interested in the office. It was his own ambition that saw him fall out with his principal, Olusegun Obasanjo during their term. It had also taken him to the APC only to lose to Buhari at the primaries. At 72, this is was his final chance to try to win an election, a dream he had first had twenty-five years ago. Bukola lost at the PDP primaries and – going by some of the photos from the Atiku campaign, reluctantly- threw himself into working to get Atiku elected. As he did this, he took his eye off the simmering pot of chaos that had been brewing back at home. For a few years now, egged on by the memory of how he betrayed his father and his own rumoured highhandedness; local Kwara politicians had been planning on detaching themselves from the dynasty Bukola was building. There was nothing to gain from his own power play, nor were they going to benefit anything from an Atiku presidency. In the hinterland twinged Yoruba of the Ilorin people, “O to ge!” became the chant that called for the end of the Saraki hold on Kwara. Except that, it was he that they wanted gone- sister, Gbemi Saraki had joined Buhari campaign. Everywhere you went in the state, the cries of “O to ge, ole!” rent the air, the defiance of the people solidified by the determination to see the back of him. Enough was enough. As he hurriedly departed Ilorin after the Saturday elections, dozens of his kinsmen raced after his convoy across the airport tarmac, flinging their insults with along Quranic verses. Like a man whose sacrifice was rejected by the gods, he should have known that the end was near. Only a few months after his term began in 2015, he was publicly shamed at a prayer ground in Ilorin by the same people he had governed just four years prior. It didn’t matter that it was a holy occasion, congregants began shouting “Ole, Ole, thief…” So it turned into pandemonium, stones and sachets of pure water was flung at him. Bizarrely, for someone who would go back to seek the votes of these people, he never went back to make amends. After all, this is Nigeria where any and all sins can and will be forgiven. Rather, he hedged his bets on the Atiku wave and expected presidency; extreme naivete if ever there was one. Now, only sixteen years since he first won an election, he’s politically finished; stranded with no allies- except for Dino Melaye who won his own election and would be heading back to the Senate. Baba Oloye would never. |
