A brace from striker Ahmed Ala and a goal each from skipper Abdelkarim Hassan and Moez Ali helped the hosts conjure up a comeback victory over Syria who had taken an early lead. This win puts Qa- tar on top of Group A and they will now wait for today’s Group B results to see who they will face in the quarters. “It is obviously not the start of the game we expected, we were a bit sleepy in the beginning of the game and our opponents were pushing and we re- ceived a goal, but the mentality of the team was very good after we conced- ed,” said Qatar coach Felix Sanchez af- ter the match yesterday. “We scored three and this gave us the rhythm of the game and I think in the second half we created many chances to score more goals and fi nally it was 4-2 and I am proud of the players for their eff ort.

  • Australia Firmly in Control in First New Zealand Test
    SPORTS SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 2016 Replay drama works in Australia’s favor WELLINGTON: Australia’s players feared another backlash from New Zealand fans after a contentious no ball decision went in their favor in the final over of the first day’s play of the first test yesterday. Adam Voges was batting on seven when he was bowled by Doug Bracewell with two deliveries remaining in the day’s play, only for umpire Richard Illingworth to signal a no ball. Television replays, however, showed the delivery was legal but because the no ball had been called New Zealand were unable to ask for a review. Australia finished the day on 147 for three, 36 runs behind New Zealand’s first innings tally of 183. The replay had the potential to create a backlash against the Australians similar to that they experienced after the final one- day international at Seddon Park in Hamilton on Monday. In that match, Mitchell Marsh was given not out caught and bowled on 41 with his side in charge of their run chase, only for the crowd to erupt into a chorus of boos when they saw a replay on the big screen that showed he had been dismissed. Marsh was then given out, creating an angry response from the all- rounder and batting partner Matthew Wade, while captain Steve Smith was booed at the end of the game when he questioned the decision. Australian media criticized the Hamilton crowd, calling them ‘feral’, while suggesting the controversy from the underarm bowling incident from a 1981 one-day match between the two sides had now been put to bed.

  • Number #9 in the TDF Top 50
    From being a small boy, I have always been a huge fan of both football and professional wrestling and at around the age of 10-years-old, I came across a monthly magazine brought to newsagents from the makers of the world famous Sports Illustrated all about pro wrestling. It was simply named Pro Wrestling Illustrated. It was a publication I regularly read as well as Shoot and Match weekly magazines to feed my football addiction. In 1991, PWI began this new craze that instantly grabbed my attention more than no other magazine had before. They revealed the 'PWI 500'. The 'PWI 500' section in the magazine listed (in rank order) the top 500 professional wrestlers in the world that year. Counting down from 500, this revealed to me many, many talents that I have not discovered as of yet. This was released every year, and still to this day is the best selling edition of the magazine each year. I studied and read and read over and over again that edition in 1991 and I came up with an idea. What if Match or Shoot revealed the top 500 footballers in the world? Thinking back to 1991, I used to love to tune into the 'BBC Radio 1 Top 40' show every Sunday afternoon too... maybe I'm a tad obsessed with countdowns. Anyways, reflecting on the idea, I thought about it each year the 'PWI 500' was released. As years went on, I felt that this would have grown into a hugely successful plan, gaining great recognition with people in the game, possibly gained its own award ceremony on TV with the emergence and exposure SKY Television in the United Kingdom was just beginning to give to the game back then.

    Bandiera Biancazzurra Il racconto dei Cento anni dell'Associazione Calcio Prato Questa storia del Prato, con rispetto parlando, è stata scritta in virtuale ed emotiva collaborazione con Giancarlo Tatti. Alcuni spunti sono stati raccolti qua e là come fossero petali di fiori che la penna felice di Roberto Baldi su carta dipinse. Il resto è memoria, lettura, chilometri, fantasia, schegge di legno infilate nei pantaloni, chiacchiere e visita di luoghi immaginari nelle pieghe del sogno, nelle pagine ingiallite e nell'immaterialità. E adesso, come legge comanda, rituali raccomandazioni per l'inclito e per il volgo: La proprietà letteraria della seguente opera è riservata, sia chiaro fin dall'inizio. Ne è vietata la riproduzione, anche di semplici brani (figuriamoci di quelli più difficili) con qualsiasi mezzo (audiovisivi, televisione, teatro, fotocopia, discorsi da bar e nessun altro escluso) e per qualsiasi finalità senza l'autorizzazione scritta dell'autore. E in ogni caso basta chiederla. Progetto narrativo e grafico, nonché composizione e impaginazione sono vanto e al tempo stesso colpa dell'autore. Il quale sentitamente ringrazia anche solo per essere arrivati fino a questo punto della lettura.
