Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi's storied rivalry
provided another chapter as Real Madrid and
Barcelona battled again for La Liga supremacy in
2016-17. For the first time since 2012, it was Ronaldo's Madrid
that lifted the league title as the Portuguese scored in
a 2-0 win at Malaga to leave Zinedine Zidane with a
LaLiga winners' medal after his first full season as
head coach, while Los Blancos also have a Champions
League final on the horizon. But it was Messi that came out on top individually as
he took home the coveted "Pichichi" award for
finishing as the league's top scorer - the fourth time
he has done so compared to Ronaldo's three,
although the Argentina star made five more league
appearances. Using Opta stats, we take a look at how Messi and
Ronaldo compared in terms of goals this season. 33 - Real Madrid have won their 33th La
Liga title and the first one since 2011/12

SportsZinedine Zidane Hailed As The Best Coach In The World by gentle136(op): 5:59pm On May 23, 2017
Zinedine Zidane hailed as best coach in the world by club president Florentino Perez. Zinedine Zidane stands on the brink of history as Real
Madrid aim to become the first club to successfully
defend the Champions League next month. And club president Florentino Perez believes the
Frenchman's achievements since taking the reins in
January 2016 make him in a standout in his field. The Frenchman lead Real to their first La Liga title in
five years at the weekend and can make it a double
with victory over Juventus in Cardiff on June 3. The club's president believes the impact made by the
former world player of the year leaves him
unrivalled among his peers. Speaking at Madrid's town hall during the title
celebrations, he said: 'Thanks Zinedine for all you
have given us, and all you keep giving us. 'You were the best player in the world, and now you
are simply the best coach in the world. 'You, your assistants, and this squad have made
history again with exciting football. Madrid scored in
every game of the season, which shows our
philosophy. 'This league title is a symbol of our values, it was
achieved fighting until the last game, and respecting
our opponents, who made it difficult for us. 'This team has given us something we had wished for
a long time.' Real edged out arch-rivals Barcelona by three points
on the final day of the season thanks to a 2-0 win
away at Malaga on Sunday.

PoliticsEFCC Gets Warrant To Search Lagos Building Over Possibility Of More Hidden Cash by gentle136(op): 9:16am On Apr 18, 2017
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC)
has obtained a warrant from a court to search all the
apartments in Osborne Towers, where the N13.3
billion was discovered. According to sources in the commission, the EFCC at
the weekend wrote to all the occupants of the
building notifying them that its operatives will carry
out a search of all the apartments. It was learnt that the reason for the search arose
from the suspicion that there might be more cash
hidden in another apartment at Osborne Towers,
other than Flat 7B. A source revealed that the whistle blower who blew
the lid on Apartment 7B, had also informed the
commission that another apartment has cash stashed
in it. The whistle blower, the source said, is believed to be
a young graduate who works in the building. It was for this reason that the commission went to
court to obtain a warrant to search all the apartments
in the building. It was gathered that upon receiving the letter of the
EFCC, several occupants of the building were very co-
operative at the weekend and allowed the
operatives to carry out a search of their flats. According to the source, about 21 flats in the building
had already been searched by Monday, including the
penthouse and three flats belonging to the former
National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP), Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu.
PoliticsBiafra: IPOB Laments Members’ Disappearance, Detention Without Trial by gentle136(op): 9:06am On Apr 18, 2017
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has
condemned the incessant harassment, arrest and
illegal detention of their members in different prisons
and secret cells across the country. IPOB head of media and publicity, Emma Powerful, in
a statement on Monday, said “the illegal detention
of Bright Chimezie Ishinwa in DSS secret cell without
traces, those in Igweocha prisons and those in the
state CID headquarters Igweocha languishing and
others are becoming of much worry and concern”. IPOB said it expected the Nigerian Government and
security agencies to do the needful either to release
those arrested on bail or charge them to court
without further delay “if they are still alive in their
custody”. The statement added that: “The Federal High Court
sitting in Abuja on 6th February 2017 declared IPOB
as a legal organization but the Nigerian Police and
other security agencies who does not know the law
are busy breaking the law by continuing targeting the
peaceful members of IPOB. “On the 15th April 2017, the DPO of Umuebulu police
station (Superintendent of police) SP Mary Iheanacho
ordered the kidnapp of IPOB members who were
doing evangelism for the restoration of ancient nation
of Biafra in Umuebulu 1 Etche in Etche LGA of River
state. “The peaceful evangelism of IPOB family members
were held on the 2nd of April 2017 there was no
arrest or kidnap until 15th April 2017 the DPO ordered
for the kidnap of the IPOB members in the
community. “The IPOB members in the community searched for
the members who were kidnapped only could locate
one Mr Victor Ogiebe under the custody of SP Mary
Iheanacho while others were not seen since five
days now. “Therefore, we are calling on international
community the European Union EU, African Union AU,
all the relevant Human Rights Organizations, Men and
Women of good conscience around the globe to
prevail upon the Nigeria government and security
agencies to stop harassing, intimidating IPOB members and release those detained illegally in
different prisons and secret cells across the country
because they didn’t commit crime against Nigeria
state or humanity.”
SportsFive Great Barcelona European Comebacks by gentle136(op): 8:36am On Apr 18, 2017
Barcelona have another Champions League mountain to climb if they are to oust Italian champions Juventus to reach the semi-finals on Wednesday. Barca trail 3-0 from the first leg in Turin last week. However, the Catalans have shown that they are capable of the spectacular back home at Camp Nou in European competition through the years. Here, AFP Sports looks at five of Barca’s finest comebacks. 3-0 v Ipswich Town, UEFA CUP, 1977 Future Barca coach Bobby Robson’s Ipswich side looked to have this last 16 tie in the bag with a famous 3-0 first leg success at Portman Road. However, inspired by Johan Cruyff’s double and an 87th minute penalty from Carles Rexach, Barca levelled the scores on aggregate. After a goalless extra-time, the hosts prevailed 3-1 on penalties. 3-0 v Anderlecht, Cup Winners’ Cup, 1978 A year later, Barca produced another fightback to edge through on penalties on their way to winning the 1978/79 Cup Winners’ Cup. Johann Krankl, Juan Carlos Heredia and Rafael Zuviria got the goals in normal time before Dutch legend Johan Neeskens struck the decisive penalty in a 4-1 shootout win. 3-0 v IFK Gothenburg, European Cup, 1986 Arguably Barca’s finest comeback before their miraculous feat against PSG a month ago came in the semi-finals of the 1985/86 European Cup. Pichi Alonso’s hat-trick overturned a 3-0 first leg deficit against Swedish champions Gothenburg before Barca edged another penalty shootout 5-4. As another good omen for Barca, they also beat Juventus on route to the final that year. 4-0 v AC Milan, Champions League, 2013 Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has already suffered at first hand what a bruised Barca are capable off. In 2013, Allegri’s Milan side won the first leg of their Champions League last 16 tie 2-0. However, Lionel Messi quickly cancelled out the Italians advantage with two sensational first-half strikes before David Villa and Jordi Alba completed the comeback. 6-1 v Paris Saint-Germain, Champions League 2017 Can lightning really strike twice? Barca looked down and out after a 4-0 thrashing in Paris on Valentines’ Day back in February. No side had ever overturned a 4-0 first leg deficit in Champions League history and even Neymar declared Barca had justa one percent chance. However, the Brazilian inspired a mad final 10 minute spell as Barca scored three times to progress. Luis Suarez, Layvin Kurzawa’s own goal and a Messi penalty brought Barca back into the tie before Edison Cavani’s away goal looked to have given PSG the breathing space they needed. However, Neymar’s brilliant free-kick and penalty set up a grandstand finish as his cross was then turned home by Sergio Roberto in the 95th minute to unprecedented scenes of celebration at the Camp Nou.

TravelChapecoense Air Crash: Pilot 'was Warned Over Fuel' by gentle136(op): 10:40am On Dec 02, 2016
The pilot of a charter plane that crashed in
Colombia on Monday had been warned before
taking off from an airport in Bolivia that he
might not have enough fuel, a report says. An airport official raised the concern after checking
the plane's flight plan, Bolivia's Deber newspaper said. Seventy-one people died in the crash, including
members of a Brazilian football team. Six people
survived. Bodies of the victims are due to be repatriated to
Brazil. Colombian authorities have said evidence is growing
that the British-made BAE 146 Avro RJ85 aircraft ran
out of fuel as it tried to land at Medellin airport. Experts
say it was flying at, or very near, its maximum range. In a leaked tape, the pilot, Miguel Quiroga, can be
heard warning of a "total electric failure" and "lack of
fuel".

SportsBrazil Football Team Chapecoense In Colombia Plane Crash by gentle136(op): 8:07am On Nov 29, 2016
A plane carrying 81 people, including a
Brazilian football team, has crashed on its
approach to the city of Medellin in Colombia,
officials say. Details are unclear but some reports say there are
survivors. The chartered plane, flying from Bolivia, was carrying
members of the Chapecoense football team, airport
officials said. The team was due to play in the final of the Copa
Sudamericana against Medellin team Atletico
Nacional. The first leg of the final of the cup, South America's
second most important club competition, was
scheduled for Wednesday, but has now been
suspended. The team, from the city of Chapeco, was promoted to
Brazil's first division in 2014 and reached the final last
week after a victory against Argentina's San Lorenzo. Reports say the plane, carrying 72 passengers and
nine crew, crashed in a mountainous area outside the
city shortly before midnight local time (05:00 GMT). Medellin's Mayor Federico Gutierrez described it as "a
tragedy of huge proportions", but added it was
possible there were survivors. The Jose Maria Cordova de Rionegro airport, which
serves Medellin, posted on its Twitter account:
"Confirmed, the aircraft licence number CP2933 was
carrying the team @ChapecoenseReal. Apparently
there are survivors."
