We could already speculate who the title favorites are. What is certain is that France is the absolute favorite. Followed by Germany, England, Italy. Then come countries such as Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands and possibly Belgium. In Belgium it was known that a number of players are going to stop. I'm afraid you won't have much left of that world team from 2 years ago. Hazard will never be top again. De Bruijne can last a few more years. Germany has a huge advantage because all matches are played in Germany, but then they will have to play better. At the World Cup, they gave away the entire tournament against Japan in just 15 minutes. And they even trailed against Costa Rica. The glorious times seem to be over for this team that may be in need of rejuvenation/renewal.
I very much agree with you, France is the favourite Germany plays well, but they don't have many people to put in the ball, if nobody scores a goal you don't win Italy, let's leave it alone, it's been a broken team for years they don't let young people who don't grow up play and therefore we have a broken team It amazes me how no one mentions Croatia when they are talking about favorites. I know that Croatia usually doesn't play great in UEFA Euro tournaments, but they finished last two FIFA World Cups in second and third place. They have few players that are suppose to leave the national team, but I think they could be considered as a hidden favorite. Well even Spain and Portugal are not to be underestimated and I agree with you, Croatia can give you a hard time but also Holland, let's not forget, who play quite well and how can we not forget little Switzerland there are many difficult teams to face, we were only talking about who is slightly favourites @babo I’m kinda surprised as to why do people yet feel that Germany is the favourite to win this tournament, because even with the home advantage I’m pretty sure that they’ll be eliminated early because they no longer play the fearless football liked they used to play in the past. Furthermore for me it’s either France or England that’ll be winning this tournament, because both have excellent squad of player’s who can help them win this tournament. |

Match between PSG and angers PSG has won all their recent matches except their match with Rc lens which the lost 3:1 to lens, currently PSG is on top of the French senior league with 44 points their rival team is in 20th position with 8 points an the have secured just one win and a draw in 6 matches to me this match is embedded with much goals to come because PSG is a concerning side and also a scoring side but the are bound to win this match.
With Messi return and eventually Neymar, there will be more possibilities in the attack line rather than counting only on Mbappe. PSG - Angers shouldn't be a problem for them, Rennes game is more challenging then up to February to see PSG suffering with harder games in different leagues vs Bayern, Monaco, Lille and Marseille.. PSG with Lionel Messi is 10 times more stronger compared to PSG without Lionel Messi. Lionel Messi is a very important playmaker for the PSG team right now. Without him, that ball is hard to move for PSG. Lionel Messi can move the ball with purpose. And we also know that he can also score very well too. I do not think that PSG will face any problems against Angers. I believe they should be able to win this match easily. After all, PSG, which is at the top of the table, is going to play against Angers which is at the absolute bottom of the table. Shouldn’t be any problem for PSG to get that three points. @snipie PSG was in fine form before the World Cup and post the World Cup one or two losses were always expected to happen to any big club including PSG, however what will be interesting to see is how they bounce back from this loss. Furthermore in my personal opinion I believe that PSG will score at least 3 goals to show their champions mentality, and in the end comfortably win the match too but if they fail to win then that’ll be a cause of concern for their coach and their fan’s. |

Liverpool has to get an advantage at home, at least they have to be able to win even if only 1 goal. playing at home to Madrid will not benefit Liverpool. especially with the current performance of those who tend to experience a decline.
Liverpool must take advantage of the match at home, at least they will secure the opportunity to qualify for the next phase. although Madrid is a very strong team, it will be difficult to overthrow them. but if Liverpool has a better strategy, they can win.
Madrid is not the type of club that thrives in just home games, they could lose 2-0 on their own home game and everyone would imagine they are gone, and could beat the other team 3-0 on away game (anfield in this case) and go further stages. This means that Liverpool can't just beat them at Madrid and feel good, or beat them at anfield and feel good neither. When you are playing against Madrid, every single minute counts and it's very very difficult. Look at City, they were leading up until like 88th minute of second game, at that point you expect City to win, you would see like x50000 odds at places, insanely low chance, then Madrid scored twice and beat them at overtime. Proves how good they are and they never give up. Real Madrid is a very complete and organised team. They have the right mentality and great team work to compete at any level. They have beaten Liverpool twice in their past meetings so the next meeting I expect to see a very competitive game between both sides. I know it wouldn't be an easy game for Liverpool but at the least I expect the game to be tough for both sides. @SatoPrincess the current Liverpool squad looks really weak when compared to Real Madrid, but the arrival of Gapko could boost their morale up but if he fails to quickly settle in then I believe that there’s no way Liverpool will win against Real Madrid. Of the several big teams that have qualified for the round 16 of the Champions League this season, I am more certain that Parist Saint Germain and Manchester City will advance to the final based on the achievements of each team so far. What do you think, which of the participants has the potential to reach the Champions League final this season?
Are there other candidates with more potential than PSG and Manchester City?
@zuzie while I have no doubt about City progressing ahead because of Pep and Haaland, but for PSG I’m concerned because Mbappe yet needs to fully recover from the World Cup loss and Messi and Neymar keep on getting injured hence in my personal opinion PSG will be under pressure when they face Bayern. |

Chelsea already have a ten-point gap with top four now. This is quite a big difference to close up for them. It is going to be not easy at all for them as they have a really inconsistent form.
Chelsea's previous narrow defeat against Manchester City last week made it even more obvious that Chelsea didn't have a good performance, moreover they will meet Manchester City again tonight in the FA Cup, I think Chelsea needs to fix it because if it doesn't do that it will make it fall even more from a safe position in standings By this time last season it was Arsenal that was going down and now is Chelsea, I can't really tell the reason for there poor performance even with the new signings still no better result. Can they make it to the top 6 this season? I really feel bad for them, no position is even functioning on the field of play. IMO, I think getting Thomas Tuchel back is the only way to help this dying Chelsea side. I believe that the biggest mistake by the new owner’s was not to give Tuchel some more time, because he’s an experienced coach and he could have probably rectified his mistakes and gotten this squad to perform well in the long run. Furthermore they’re buying young player’s who could probably perform well in year’s to come, but that won’t help them in the short term and currently I wonder how long will Chelsea board continue to back Potter who clearly has lost the fan’s support. |

I left betting on national teams after the World Cup ended but Germany were one of the best playing teams in the World Cup. They just had issues with finishing and said farewell to the tourney in group stage unluckily. I see Germans as favourites of the tourney with their host country advantage as a result.
don't get fooled by the fact that the Euro will be played in Germany, if you think Germany can win it as a team, it's fine you do you, but because they are the host it doesn't mean anything, we saw what happened to Brazil in 2014 world cup, it's rare where a host wins the tournament, who i actually think can win it is England, they have some young talents that can get them the trophy and it's been a long time since they won something. It seems to me that German national football has been in crisis for a long time. After the 2014 world title in Brazil, they did nothing in the world competitions and were eliminated twice in a row in the group stage of the world championship, which is no coincidence. Honestly, regardless of the fact that they are the hosts of the next European Championship, I don't see them as favorites for the title. At the European Championship, I expect the most from the French, England, Spain and Italy. @Daniel91 Germany’s football used to be so great once upon a time, but now a day’s they play really bad but since it’s in their home country I sincerely hope that they will perform well at least for the sake of their citizens. However I don’t expect them to win it, because I expect France or England to win it because they have really good player’s who can help them win it. |

All you need to do is buy FUN tokens and hold them in your FreeBitco.in account to get the benefits. The longer you hold the tokens, the greater the benefits will be!
But if you decide to lock the tokens, you will also have the opportunity to earn up to 25% annual interest on them. However, you will not lose any of the benefits that come with Premium Membership! I think at that point locking is smarter thing to do. I try to do it because not only you are getting the benefits like unlocked people do, but you are also getting more so that means it's growing and you would get more benefits because you are doing better as well. All in all having more, and given free money is always better option to me. Looking at the current situation I am doing fine and I am not planning on doing any unlocking anytime soon, well aside from arranging some stuff. It gives me a great deal of returns in the long run this way, plus we are in bear market, so no reason to sell now, gonna hold it until bull run at the very least, probably more. Fun token is among the altcoins I've been debating whether to buy and hodl or not, considering the fact the token is really cheap right now at its current price of $0.006, makes me really hungry to buy it, But am not really a fan of buying a token and staking it for reward alone, I always like to know what other usecases is attached to the altcoin, a token with out any tangible or significant usecase that's outside staking will just keep doing down in price over time. So aside the staking and other casino benefits holding Fun token offers, it would really be interesting to know what plans Freebitco have for their token in the future, I think this will encourage more investors to come in. @Fivestar4everMVP I personally believe that one should buy this token and immediately lock it, because there’s been lots of developments post it launch and in the long run it’s prices are bound to shoot up a lot. Furthermore I can understand why people are skeptical about locking this token, but if they carefully study then they’ll realise that Freebitco team is 100% legit and the current price is really affordable hence in my personal opinion people should buy and lock it for 360 days at least. |

You know it's bad when you get the usual picks right (Mitrovic, Rashford) and still can't even get consolations on MajSev. Going to put me head back on this weekend and get done a heck load of things including next MS. You wish, those 2 own goals were all Faes. First one was quite impossible with the arc the ball has gotten after he tried to clear it. For second one, Nunez hit the post and Faes made sure it finishes in the goal. Both were really bad reactions and easy to clear. Look them up on YouTube, will be worth your time. Promise  Ah, what a memory, seems so long ago. Yeah, there are own goals, and these are Faes specials in a class of their own. They were singing about Carragher but Carra's own goals were usually unavoidable, just unlucky. Faes might have been slightly unlucky with one but in both situations, very clearable, he just got his techniques absolutely wrong. @buwaytress as we head deeper into this season it’s starting to look that certain player’s will score more goals than other’s hence our chances of winning will probably increase now. Also I feel that one should look at the top premier league goal scorer’s for inspiration whenever they’re selecting their majestic 7, because it can help a lot especially for people who don’t like to do too much research. |

By the way, I was thinking that the Arsenal - Newcastle match would end up with many goals. I bet on over 2.5 goals as well but it ended by 0-0.  Newcastle is tough nut to crack this season, and they have best defense in Premier League, this is now proven after match with Arsenal. They conceded 11 goals in 18 matches, that is something to be proud in any league and even more in Premier League. I think they need to hire more good goal scorers if they want to stay in league top positions. Man City is keeping up with Arsenal after narrow win against Chelsea today. Guys we have FA Cup new round starting tomorrow so don't forget to make predictions on Southampton & Arsenal and win FREE bets from Sportsbet:https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5433058.0so far newcastle is indeed a very strong team in their defense it's just that they lack players who can become goal machines in their attack line so they have never managed to score more goals when they meet other top teams, but I'm happy to see manchester city can beat chelsea tonight because they can finally catch up on the points left behind by arsenal at the top of the standings, BTW it seems interesting to take part in that prediction event  @notblox1 when they hired Howe as their manager I was skeptical about their survival in the premier league, but slowly and steadily he’s transformed this Newcastle team into a team that can now challenge other team’s for the league title which is an amazing feat in my personal opinion. Furthermore I expect that Newcastle board will invest heavily in the summer transfer window to solve their goal scoring problems, but I doubt that they’ll buy now because player’s are usually sold for a premium in the January transfer window and it doesn’t makes any sense to buy in the mid season even if they’re in the title race. |

But I doubt whether Manchester United will play the main players while in the League they will face a tight match, on the other hand, Everton is also in a slump but with the betting opportunities for Manchester United I think it is still worth betting on.
It turns out that Erik ten Hag fielded the main players in Manchester United's match against Everton and as a result they won. I think ten Hag is very eager to be able to give trophies to Manchester United in his first season handling Manchester United even though it is only the FA Cup which is often ignored by many other coaches. Well, it could be a Liverpool victory but sometimes Wolves are more difficult and this trophy is also important for Liverpool because the EPL will be difficult to get with Liverpool's fluctuating performance.
I will also have a glance at the Brentford vs West Ham game.
Liverpool's performance has declined greatly so far. Although the Premier League trophy competition is already difficult to achieve, but Klopp in the FA Cup will not play all of his main players. Later we will see how Jurgen Klopp handles Liverpool against Wolverhampton. I don’t understand why you felt that Ten Hag would not field a strong team, because he had already indicated that he wishes to win a trophy in his first season hence that was a clear indication that he would field a very strong team. Lastly Liverpool form is very difficult to predict and we’ll have to see if Gapko can revitalise them, otherwise the board should consider if it’s time to let Klopp go and allow a new manager to work on this current squad. |

Manchester United against Everton ended with a 3-1 advantage for Manchester United.
There were some interesting things in this match such as De Gea's mistakes and 2 goals from Conor Coady to equalize and an own goal. On the other hand, there are things that are more interesting when you see Rashford's performance in this match. 1 Assist and 1 goal but also has an important role for Coady's second goal in his own goal.
Indirectly, Manchester United's three goals in this match were thanks to Rashford's excellent movement.
Manchester united didn't Miss used their opportunities in this match, because Everton plan is to make the match end up draw but Manchester united players introduced some new skills that made them to defeated Everton 3-1 for the favour of Manchester united. Manchester united strikers really demonstrated an excellent performance in this match, that made people concluded that the match will end up draw 1-1 but the match later turned for the favour of Manchester united in the second half. I think, Manchester united coach is really doing a nice Job in this season, because Manchester united is improving in this premier league competition. Manchester United has 6 winnings streak in all competitions and this is the best achievement since Teg Hag arrived and this weekend they aiming 7th win and if Manchester United can do that these winnings streak will be equal to Mourinho era but Manchester City will be their opponent and they had poor records from Manchester City even several times to lose with big scores so i think their positive records will be stopped in this match although i know there was a lot of improvement for this team but it won't be enough for them to beat Manchester City however Manchester United seems had tight schedules because after fight against Manchester city they will faced Arsenal after this
Yet again, Manchester United played beautiful football across all competitions. In the FA Cup, Marcus Rashford put on an amazing display of tonight. Man United is doing an incredible job under Eric ten Hag. There is a discipline, plan, and results are six wins in a row in all competitions. The team has been doing well, but they will have to face Manchester City. We'll see what happens when they meet again, they had poor stats against them. To strengthen their squad this winter, Manchester United needs to add more players. @Sebas.tian in another thread I had said that Manchester United would win, and I’m glad to see my beloved club is playing so well and major credit goes to Rashford as he’s fully transformed and even if we don’t get a striker now he’ll be able to score many goals and possibly help us secure a top 4 spot and win trophies too. Also Ten Hag took some really brave decisions like playing Shaw as a CB and who would have thought of this, but it worked out so well for the team and this proves that he’s the right man to bring back our glory day’s. |

It is now the 3rd round of the competition which mean the first games featuring the Premier League clubs has started. Here is the only FA Cup game taking place tomorrow:
If Everton lose there is a possibility Lampard will be sacked after the game. Surely with such a dismal record as manager he should be replaced because Everton are not a small club, they have a huge potential.
@JollyGood I personally expect Manchester United to win because I’m sure that Erik ten Hag desires to win a trophy in his first season, and the way he prepares his team for every match makes me confident to say that my beloved club is back on track. Furthermore Lampard needs to go and I can’t understand how has he survived so far?, and lastly do you feel that Chelsea will be able to get revenge on City for yesterday’s loss or do you feel that they’ll be defeated by City again?. |

consistently it seems that Napoli always play well in every game, but sometimes a football club doesn't always win always, in this half of the season Napoli must maintain their playing style in order to remain consistent to win the Italian league this season, Napoli's next match will play against Sampdoria and can make up for yesterday's defeat
Napoli seems lost mentally champion from Inter. We know they will face tough challenges from a big club that have mentally champion like Inter, Juve and Milan. This is not easy to keep them on 1st top, I agree if they play consistently, Napoli will get what have they dream, but we know Napoli last scudetto about 32 years ago most likely they have forget how to defend it as a champion this season, slip will happen on the last week if lost and can't play consistently. Saturday 7th January
Fiorentina 14:00 Sassuolo
Juventus 17:00 Udinese
Fiorentina - Sassuolo is challenging with a slight advantage for Fiorentina imo. Juve - Udinese isn't easy too except the bad performance shown by Udinese in the previous games. That's why Juve has an advantage. Sunday 8th January
Lazio 14:00 Empoli
Sampdoria 17:00 Napoli
AC Milan 19:45 Roma
Lazio and Napoli are not expected to lose again. Milan - Roma is very interesting with a clear advantage for Milan since they are playing home. Napoli will be pleased if Roma could beat them and they catch up the 3 points gap they lost last round.. @blue snow despite the loss Napoli yet has a decent lead, and if they continue winning matches then it’ll be really difficult for other team’s to catch up to them. Furthermore I thought that Roma would finish in the top 4 this season, but currently it looks like that they won’t finish in the top 4 however does anyone here feels that they’ll yet make it to top 4 by the time this season end's?. |

Đoković really struggled against Halys - a mediocre player with a terrible 2022 record. I planned to go for handicaps agaisnt Đoković throughout this year's AO, games like these make me feel better about these bets.
I will follow how Đoković is performing in the tournaments leading to AO, I still think he will go far there but I expect him to struggle a bit more than what we were used to so far.
@cryptofrka while he did struggle but in the end he won, and that’s what the difference is between him and the other player’s that he just won’t quit and his winning mentality is the best when compared to the current generation of tennis player’s. Also I would yet advise gamblers to wager on him in case anyone is having second thoughts, because he’s bound to win many tournaments this year and I further believe that it’s only a matter of a year or two before he too retires hence he’ll try and win maximum tournament’s before calling it quits thus wagering on him makes sense to me. |

Real Madrid and Barcelona have Dominated that league this season, they are on the same points and already set pace for others teams like Atheletico Madrid, Athletic Bibao, Real Betis and Real soceidad, catching them by this wil be a difficult one and they both have tough matches next with Barcelona taking Atheletico Madrid and Real Madrid taking on Villarreal, they both need victory in these games because any slip might prove too costly and the season is already heading to the critical stage when teams will be battling relegation with there lives and the European qualifying spot will be taking more seriously, I think a victory over this teams wil be give them both an advantage
They are only at the same level in La Liga, whereas in other competitions they are always different, including this season. You will see Barcelona in the Europa League after the team failed in the Champions League, while Real Madrid is still in the Champions League and there is a possibility to continue to survive until the final because Real Madrid is the defending champion in the Champions League and is still very strong to continue competing in this competition. So these two teams are only the same in terms of points in La Liga, while the others are very much different. Yes, for now the quality of the squad for Barcelona and Real Madrid is very different. In my opinion the Los Blancos squad is superior to the Blaugrana. At the moment they do have the same points, but I'm sure that on the way later Madrid will again be able to take the top spot and at the same time will widen the gap with its nemesis, moreover Karim Benzema and friends will still have a chance during the El Clasico match later. But it is possible that there will be a quicker change at the top of the standings, because at the weekend Real Madrid and Barcelona will face teams that are quite balanced for them. @G_Besar if Barcelona wishes to win the La Liga title then they need to drop out of Europa league, because if they continue playing football on Thursday night their player’s will be tired hence their position on the table could change if they continue to remain in the Europa league. Lastly if Barcelona sell some player’s and manage to recruit new player’s then they could offer some tough competition to Real Madrid, but for now I feel that Real Madrid will win the title even if they don’t make any new additions to their squad. |

His comeback meant nothing for sure. Dortmund will be losing more players. Jude bellingham and moukoko will not continue its career in the dortmund. I thought that the position of dortmund will always be the same. Dortmund is much more focusing to selling the players rather than try to win the trophy. I think that dortmund didn't care so much about that as long as it can still develop the new players and dortmund will not be trying so hard to win the trophy. That's why bayern was always dominating the league since a long time ago. Bayern have so many competitors that have business oriented Borrussia Dortmund's style of business is different from Bayern Munich, where they are a club that has a large finances, besides that, Munich has fanatical fans, namely Die Bayern. therefore, Munich has financial sources from various parties. different from Dortmund which does not rely too much on sponsors and ticket sales. They are more focused on scoring new stars, then they sell at very high prices. I'm sure Dortmund have prepared another young player to replace Jude Bellingham if he leaves in January or maybe in the next summer transfer window. but not for Moukoko, at least Dortmund will maintain it until this season ends because they still have tough matches in the Champions League and are targeting to finish in the top four of the Bundesliga. So, don't expect much from Dortmund to be serious in competing to become champions at any level of competition. the most important thing for Dortmund's management, they still exist in the top four of the Bundesliga and continue to compete in the Champions League. and if in the end Bellingam and Moukoko leave, Dortmund will reap the benefits again this season. @rahmad2nd I personally believe that Dortmund will let him go only in the summer transfer window, because they need him currently but they also do realise that his head is already getting turned by the various offers he has received and it’s better to sell him before he puts in a transfer request. Furthermore I strongly feel that Jude should not leave after seeing what happened to Sancho who has completely flopped, he should decide to stay back and develop further before leaving because he’s grown a lot and then there’s no guarantee too that he’ll always be in the playing 11 at a bigger club. |

Packages will definitely be created for these and sales will be made in packages. I think Fifa has definitely worked on this issue. Even though Fifa doesn't, the host countries should adjust it. Matches can be played in cities that are close to each other, or group matches can be played in one country. All of the teams that make the rounds in the group matches can be gathered in one country. This could be the USA. Thus, a 2 country visa may be sufficient. There will definitely be a fix for this issue.
If the FIFA has a simple system in place, then it will be good. What I don't want is fans getting their travel plans cancelled at the last minute, because the American embassy will not issue them a tourist visa. I know how hard it is to get a tourist visa for the United States, and I have seen multiple occasions of visa applications getting rejected after many months of waiting. I don't know much about the visa requirements for Canada and Mexico, but I guess the situation is much better that what they have in the United States. The USA visa problem is well known and I'm sure FIFA is well aware of that. I don't know how will they work it out but it's definitely unacceptable that someone has to wait visa for several months and then purchase a ticket for the World Cup. @W Jr the wait for an USA visa is only getting longer, and I expect many will miss out on watching this World Cup live because they’ll not get their USA visa’s issued in time. Also I doubt that FIFA will be able to do much as issuing visa is not something that they can interfere with, hence the only logical way is to apply for the USA visa at least 1 year in advance otherwise getting it in time will be really difficult. |

I think this is not the issue. T20 or Test match. The players are almost same. And I think if a player is practicing good so he can perform well. I think they have lack of practice or others issues can matter. Or there can be mis management too. And Babar should focus on the team and not only on his personal stats.
By the way let see what let see?
Test format is not entertaining in current era of T20 but we have to admit that Test cricket will continue to exist for coming years. So its not a good idea to ignore test format since it produces quality players for ODI and T20. Meanwhile Pakistan recovering nicely as they are now 271/4 and Sarfraz has once again scored a fifty and that too in crucial time. 177 still more required, Pakistan need to be careful as they are in habbit of losing quick wickets. Pakistan is moving a little bit towards their expectation. Another wicket fall after the lunch break. Sarfaraz Ahmed has returned with 78 runs. If he could stay, Pakistan would have been stay in reliable position. I hope that the disappointment of Babar Azam and Sarfaraz Ahmed's wicket fall in the match will be able to fulfill it through Saud Shakeel. In the meantime he has been able to complete the century. If Pakistan won't lose wicket until the end of day then Pakistan can get something good in this test series. @WatChe how can a test specialist perform in a T20 format?, for example Pujara is great in tests however he’s no good in a T20 format and thus I don’t believe that Test matches can help team’s find player’s for the T20 format. Furthermore when Sehwag used to play he used to make test matches fun, because he used to smash bowlers left and right but now there’s barely any batsmen like him that can constantly entertain the crowd who’re so addicted to instant entertainment that’s provided by the T20 matches. |

No absolutely not in my view, because if you are true cricket supporter you will not called him waste of time and you will not be bored watching test cricket match, in this format player abilities has been examined if they were classy player they will perform because most of the player failed to perform in this format, and it's the real format of Cricket, you mostly know that when cricket start the first and real format for cricket was test format, after the T20 and ODI format introduce in the cricket world. Very few know the real cricket. The test format cricket shows who is the best cricketer. If have got difference scoring 220 runs in 20 overs and 300 runs in 90 overs. To stand against the bowler is different than go hit, if success it is run if not it is a wicket. Very few understand well and we should not indulge them to follow it. @ZAINmalik75 It’s not about being an avid cricket fan or not. It’s about keeping up with the world. Which the ICC has obviously failed to do. And, tell me one thing, who are on Earth right now has a job or even a student who needs to get his studies done, are willing to sit there and watch it is too much for five whole days? No one. The point I’m trying to make is that you can be a passionate cricket fan but at the same time, you need to value your precious time. I think that's my point of view, at least in regard to that test match. Even a decade ago Test matches were given utmost importance. Now it is no longer considered at that way. As the needs of the people of the present age have changed, major changes have been observed in every sector. It's not just that viewership has dropped also Cricketers don't value Test cricket that much. But everyone must agree that Test cricket was a platform to build a cricketer's foundation. Those who did well in Test cricket did well in all formats of cricket. Test cricket should be given importance along with ODI and T20 cricket. Even if the number of Test cricket is greatly reduced, ICC should be kept it in every series so as not to lose the rhythm of cricket. I believe that both arguments are valid in this scenario, because while I grew up watching test matches and yes I did watch all 5 day’s and yet enjoyed it but currently I no longer can watch full test matches as I’m addicted to quicker results. Lastly time’s are changing and saving test and ODI format is not the need of the hour, due to T20 so many cricketers get employment, fame and thus I personally feel that we should move on from test matches and focus more on ICC T20 tournaments. |

Two debutant played yesterday. The first one being Shubhman Gill, who in my opinion did not have good match and second one being Mavi eho took 4 wickets & gave only 22 runs. That is called impact! As usual Imran Malik gave a splendid performance. These two guys in my opinion were the reason why India was able to defend such alow score. If Deepak Hooda hadn't batted so good then the target for Srilanka would have been below 150.
@pakhittheboss honestly I felt that team India got lucky, and they deserved to lose this match because they put up a really small total on such a small ground. Furthermore while Mavi did bowl well, but I’m concerned because of his pace he can be beaten easily however only time will tell if team India was right to promote him in the T20 format. |

PSG had to lose the match due to the absence of two attacking players. It was the second match after the World Cup break. Messi did not return to PSG after winning the World Cup 2022 in Qatar. After Neymar got a red card in the first match, he could not play this match. PSG were missing Messi and Neymar after conceding 3 goals. Mbappe and Hakimi were also seen in a very helpless state. Kylian Mbappe could not shine in this match without Neymar and Messi. All in all, PSG had to lose without Messi and Neymar.
So, mbappe itself can do nothing in that match, right? that proves that if pag was not so strong as people said. The fact that psg is still having bunch of world class players played for the club like sergio ramos. i think that messi and neymar could not be an excuse. PSG must accept the fact that if it has been defeated bu lens. i think that since psg was losing against lens was making me feel more comfortable to pick bayern over psg. it seems like that mbappe was an overrated players at this moment. he was getting shine due to the world cup. Psg was relying with messi and neymar which is very hilarious. They accepted it as their coach immediately after the game ended in the press conference said that we did not deserve anything better tonight as we did not give our 100% of condition and losing this game was the most natural result that you saw that happened. Lens of course was much more motivated as this was a life and death game so they needed to win this game at all cost and they did win it.If they did not manage to win it they would be 8 or 10 points behind Paris and if that was the case with only half the season remaining then it would have been impossible for them to dream for a Ligue 1 title this year.They can still dream now because mathematics permit it to them. @swogerino a lot is being made of Mbappe’s failure, but he has done a lot for PSG already and the other 10 player’s also should be blamed for PSG losing this match. Furthermore in a way I’m glad that he’s being rested now, because after the World Cup loss I’m sure that he needs time to be psychologically ready and once he’s back I’m sure that he’ll score many goals and help PSG win many matches. |
