He had previously represented Cruzeiro, Barcelona, Benfica and the Brazilian national side in the 2000 Sydney Olympics and 2001 Copa America tournaments. Geovanni wrote himself into Hull City’s history by scoring the Tigers’ first Premier League goal; a spectacular long range strike to equalise against Fulham in a 2-1 win. He is though, better remembered for another sublime goal from distance scored against Arsenal in another 2-1 victory. In total Geovanni made 65 appearances for the Tigers, scoring 13 goals. #TigerRags Supported by Hull UK City of Culture 2017 Cabinet 1 JAN VENNEGOOR OF HESSELINK (right) (Netherlands) 2009/2010 away shirt Number 29, worn by Vennegoor of Hesselink during the 2009/2010 campaign The Dutchman with the very long name joined Hull City in September 2009 after three seasons playing in Scotland with Celtic. His career began at FC Twente, where 59 goals in five seasons earned him an international call up and a move to PSV Eindhoven, winning the Eredivisie three times. With City for just one season, he made 33 appearances, 14 as substitute, scoring 3 goals. At first, full size lettering was used on his shirts, encircling the number, but smaller letters were later used.

  • Flow Concacaf Caribbean Club Championship
    Welcome to the Congress To our Member Associations’ Presidents, Delegates and Guests, We begin this welcome letter for our 34th Concacaf Ordinary Congress with a great sense of pride about Concacaf. As we look back on last year — in fact, the last three years since our administration took office — it is remarkable how much our organization has accomplished on our journey to move football forward throughout the region. We are ONE family that works within a culture defined by a love for our game, with ONE mutual goal of becoming champions, on and off the field. Guided by our brand pillars of Unity, Football, Quality and Access, we continue to make excellent progress in the execution of our regional strategy. As a result, we are happy to report on another record year for our Confederation. First, from a competition standpoint, we have seen the introduction and expansion of tournaments aimed at raising the quality of Concacaf’s football, while creating more access to all of the game’s stakeholders. • There is tremendous pride in the launch of the Concacaf Nations League. When we see the results and emotions from our federation’s presidents, coaches, players, fans and the media, we can already perceive how our joint efforts are generating benefits of increased competition and development for the Confederation as a whole. • The expansion of the Concacaf Gold Cup, from 12 to 16 nations, is another signature achievement. More importantly, for the first time in the 15 editions of the competition, we are bringing our top national team championship to a Caribbean and Central American pitch.

    Bienvenue au Congrès Aux Présidents de nos Associations Membres, Délégués et Invités, Nous débutons cette lettre de bienvenue à notre 34e Congrès Ordinaire avec un immense sentiment de fierté pour la Concacaf. Si l’on regarde l’année dernière – en fait, les trois dernières années depuis l’entrée en fonction de notre administration – il est remarquable de voir tout ce que notre organisation a accompli dans son parcours pour faire avancer le football dans la région. Nous sommes UNE famille, qui travaille au sein d’une culture définie par un amour pour notre jeu, avec UN objectif mutuel, devenir champions, sur et en dehors du terrain. Guidés par les piliers de notre marque, l’Unité, le Football, la Qualité et l’Accès, nous continuons à faire d’excellents progrès dans l’exécution de notre stratégie régionale. Nous sommes donc heureux de faire rapport sur une nouvelle année record dans de nombreux domaines pour notre Confédération. Premièrement, du point de vue des compétitions, nous avons vu l’introduction et l’expansion de tournois clés visant à élever la qualité du football de la Concacaf, et à créer davantage d’accès pour tous les acteurs du jeu. • Le lancement de la Ligue des Nations de la Concacaf est une immense source de fierté. Au vu des résultats et des émotions des présidents des fédérations, des entraîneurs, des joueurs, des fans et des médias, nous pouvons déjà constater comment nos efforts conjoints ont généré les bénéfices d’une compétitivité et d’un développement accrus pour notre Conféderation toute entière. • L’expansion de la Gold Cup Concacaf, qui passe de 12 à 16 nations cet été, est une autre réussite phare.

The crime shook Amany in the Kuwaiti society, and social media debated the motives of the boy. Forensics reports con- firmed that the suspect stabbed his mother 90 times and mutilated her face. We read about such stories of death and murder every day. But, there are cases that leave us in pain, especially those who kill family members, such as par- ents. These crimes, especially in small communities such as Kuwait, require officials not only to imprison the killer, but also identify their motives. The reasons that led to the sad end of a young mother must be known for awareness, caution and guidance for other families who might be facing similar situations. The juvenile prosecution has ordered the detention of the 17-year-old, who admitted to his crime. The father of the murderer told the media that his son suf- fers from schizophrenia and is being treated at the psy- chiatric hospital.
