Just saw the highlights of the match on Fifa website.

Mehn, that Asisat goal was 80% intelligent anticipation, 5% speed and 5% execution.

What a goal. There's a reason she's called "agba baller"

Meanwhile, do female football clubs tweet to hype their players when they score goals in major tournaments like the men's clubs do?

Barca femini suppose dey hype Asisat for that goal.
More.

Sports › Ian Wright Tells The NFF To Pay The Super Falcons. by naptu2(op): 2:42pm On Jul 27, 2023
Legendary Arsenal and England former striker, Ian Wright, has told the NFF to pay the Super Falcons. The NFF had stated that they would not pay the Falcons at this World Cup because FIFA began paying players directly at this World Cup.

The NFF is notorious for owing the players. The Falcons had to protest on the streets of Abuja in 2016 because they had not been paid after winning the Nations Cup. They also staged a sit-in protest at their hotel after the 2019 World Cup.

Rita Nwadike previously held the joint record of scoring at 2 world cups with Oshoala. She scored in Nigeria's 3-3 draw with Canada in 1995, she also scored in our 3-2 loss to England at the same World Cup and then she scored in our 2-1 victory over North Korea in 1999.

This is Governor Dapo Abiodun providing leadership in Ogun State in time of critical need. The big question is what is San-Olu doing in Lagos?
I voted this man and I have no apology to anyone for voting San-Olu but he has to wake up. Why is he not talking about converting the BRT buses to CNG powered buses? Why is th wildly celebrated Blue rail train not available in times like this? Didn't it occur to him that this is an opportunity to score huge political point by making it very easy for people to move around? Isn't it a way of support PBAT at the centre when subsidy has just been removed and people are languishing in poverty and pain?
It is in difficult time we know good friend and it is also in difficult times we know good governance/governors.
Almost all the inner town roads are in very appalling states, go to Anthony, Ikosi Ketu or Ikorodu etc the LGA have stopped working! Transportation is a nightmare, bad roads, not vehicle high cost of transportation.
Please speak out Gov Babajide Sanwo-Olu!

This is the original.

Sinead O'Connor - Nothing Compares 2 U (1990).

This might surprise some people.

This was one of the biggest hits of 1990. . .but not for Prince.


You see, Prince originally wrote and composed this song for one of his protege groups in 1984, but it didn't make any impact. Then Sinead O'Connor covered the song in 1990 and it became the 3rd biggest hit of 1990. It was at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 for 4 weeks. It had a very strange and unusual video and that video got heavy rotation on MTV. Prince later released a version of the song in 1993.

I'm a bit confused because there were rumours in the 1990s that Prince was dating Sinead and that was why he allowed her to cover the song. However, Sinead gave a totally different story when she was interviewed last year (2019).

Sinead said that she didn't really know Prince and that she only met him a few times and that they fought when they met.

She said Prince invited her to his house. She said that Prince was angry that she was not yet a protege of his and he also told her to stop swearing in his interviews. He said that her language was very dirty. She said that she's an Irish girl and the Irish are known for swearing and so she told him to f***k off. She said that he got violent and they started fighting. She said she had to escape through the back of the house that night and that he chased her with his car.


Anyway, a lot of people have covered this song since then. I listen to the version by Massivo and Tracy every morning when I work out on the bridge.

This is Prince, performing the song during rehearsals with that band in 1984.

The best thing to do, is to find solution for the high cost of living, once everyone diverts to gas, demand for gas will be high, the demand before you know it, the price will not be favorable anymore, , let our so call leader find a away out of this mess, this is no country 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 any more, we were still surviving with subsidy, I don't know about this. Stage we are.
Why must everybody divert to one thing? The best thing is choice and competition. Some people use gas, some people use electricity, some people use petrol, some diesel and some people even use hybrids.
