God Bless President Donald John Trump!!!

CapitanS:
Very pathetic by Serena to play the "because I am a woman" card.You were caught cheating and penalized and all you can do is try to play the gender card? What a clown!!

To add to that she went on a rant and called the umpire a liar and a thief, I think she will be penalized further for her behaviour

Serena Williams had a shot to make history on Saturday at the US Open, as a victory over Naomi Osaka in the women's singles final would've given her 24 career Grand Slam singles titles, tying the all-time record held by Australia's Margaret Court. However, the 20-year-old Osaka upset Williams to take home the first major victory of her pro career. Her win was also historic in its own right, as Osaka becomes the first Japanese woman to win a Grand Slam final.

Osaka is now two for two in matches against Williams after beating her at the Miami Open in March earlier this year. On Saturday at Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York, Osaka took down Williams in consecutive sets, 6-2, 6-4.

Osaka got off to a commanding start in the first set, then prevailed in what turned out to be a controversial second set. As Serena was attempted to play herself back into the match, she was penalized a game because her coach was allegedly making hand signals, which results in code violation. Chair umpire Carlos Ramos leveled a game penalty for the coaching violation, which left Williams incensed.

She smashed her racket on the court, which resulted in another violation, before demanding an apology from Ramos.

"You owe me an apology. I have never cheated in my life! I have a daughter and I stand for what's right for her," Williams told Ramos on the court. "I don't cheat to win. I'd rather lose."

"This has happened to me before. This is not fair. There are a lot of men out here who have said a lot of things and do not get that punishment. Because I am a woman you are going to take this away from me? That is not right."

Shortly after, Williams surrendered that second set and the match went to Osaka.

For Williams, this is her second runner-up finish since returning to tennis following the birth of her daughter. She also finished second at Wimbledon this July, falling to Angelique Kerber in the final.

solonnachi:
Pls whats scores between South Africa and Libya?

Their game is yet to start

Nonsense cross by Samuel Kali, his final ball is not good, hope it's not another ikedia kind of player

Mosesm:
It is either you are ignorant like the guy that posted that lie or you are the typical Igbo to whom no one else is good if not Igbo. Brian is left footed and has been playing that role.
The second goal comes from the center. No mention of Omeruo?

Stop talking like a fool, everything is not about tribe. Idowu is right footed, all his crosses in this game have been with his right foot and that's why he keeps cutting back to his right foot before he crosses

Seychelles have come out attacking in the second half

prinsam30:
the match is cool sha but that idowu no sabi connect at all.



the pitch is just rubbish

Idowu is right footed, he is struggling to adapt to that left back position, his crosses have been terrible and he has been caught out on one or two occasions by the Seychelles players, thank God that omeruo and Balogun are alert enough to cover for him when he wanders away and forgets to fall back when we lose the ball

ugreat:
Yeah. The Kalu Samuel is good. Good replacement for Moses

He needs to work on his end product, he is good at dribbling and running at defenders but his final ball is still suspect
