It has been decided to extend Pepe's contract at Porto until June 2025. Therefore, Pepe can continue to play until his new contract expires at forty two. Among the most complete central defenders in the history of the game. The evergreen defender should keep going as long as he enjoys it, now it seems like he may stay for years to come.

I wouldn't say that the KSA team is too strong. But they have a team of goodwill. KSA's win against Argentina was unexpected. Because they didn't win any match in the group stage. Saudi Arabia is a rich country and they are ready to spend money to strengthen themselves. They are also interested in hosting the World Cup. This is why they want to make themselves stronger. They are now adding talented veteran players to the Arab League. As a result, maybe their domestic players will become more experienced in the future. At the same time, more talented young players will emerge.
Saudi Arabia may not be a very strong team, but they have made huge improvements during the last few years. And all the money that is being poured in to Saudi football is finally giving some returns. And there is still room for improvement. The inclusion of players such as Ronaldo to the local league will definitely result in an improvement in the playing standards. But unlike the case with Qatar (who spent around $280 billion to host the world cup), they are spending money more cautiously. In the next 5-10 years time, Saudi Arabia will be one of the top-20 teams in global football. Al-Nassr FC had signed Cristiano Ronaldo, a world-class footballer. As a result, Saudi Arabian football gained a greater sense of visibility and prestige as a result of the signing. Due to these improvements, the national team will be able to play at a higher level and be more competitive. There seems to be a real commitment on the part of Saudi Arabia to see the improvements, so they will get themselves in a better position very soon. |

PSG have been inconsistent again to win after losing against Rennes in Ligue 1. I don't understand what made PSG so difficult in this match, Messi's return should have made the game more lively. Looking at PSG's statistics, they are far superior with 6 shots on target, but it seems that this is just a matter of finishing which keeps PSG from scoring. With this result, PSG cannot widen the distance from Lens on the standings, while Lens only needs 3 more points to match PSG's points.
As a result of PSG's defeat, the competition for points in the temporary standings has become even more fierce because there is not such a large distance between the teams in the top three for now. I also didn't expect why PSG could be beaten by Rennes, even though Neymar and Messi also played in that match, but they also couldn't score goals to save PSG from losing to Rennes even though that also didn't change PSG's position as top of the standings. Did you see the reverse statistic? It was precisely Rennes who had more opportunities than Paris Saint Germain, they were only superior in possession. However, their mastery of the match did not allow them to win this match by losing to the hosts with a narrow score. I don't know if I'm happy or sad about this result. The reason is, the defeat of Paris Saint Germain opened up opportunities for other teams to get closer. This will make the competition in Ligue 1 even more interesting because they have very tight points. It can also make the league even more competitive. As a result, PSG has suffered two defeats in the last three league games! It's part of the game to lose, and as long as this result makes the league more competitive, I'm happy. Whatever the case may be, winning all the time makes football seem boring and uninteresting. It is unacceptable for PSG to have such statistics since only one shot was on target in the whole game. Just three points separate them from the top of Ligue 1. |

~ The match was just like kids play with pro  , so shameful performance for team SiriLanka, they lost Thier confident when they got such a huge target. If you remember, in the first ODI India scored 373 runs and Sri Lanka in return scored 306 runs, so you cannot simply claim this pathetic performance as the pressure of the target but the pitch itself might be the reason and definitely the bowlers especially Mohammed Siraj even though unfortunately he missed on a 5 wicket haul in the match he ripped the Sri Lankan batting. We can't say there's no pressure. Sri Lanka had much pressure, looking the big target in front of them. 350 runs and 390 runs have got much difference. Even in the first match Sri Lanka started same as this match, but the scoring from Nissanka kept the match alive and made other players contribute. This time the same didn't work and the bowlers took advantage. It is the bowling that brought such a win for India. Actually, I think Sri Lanka had a lot of pressure. Because the target was really big. And Sri Lanka was under pressure from the start of the chase. But there is no excuse for them to perform so badly like this. In the first match, Sri Lanka at least tried to reach the total. And the score which they reached was actually decent and respectable. But this time things did not work out for them. They got all out for 72. That is just a shameful performance from Sri Lanka. For India, it was a record-breaking Sunday, but for Sri Lanka, it was an embarrassing one. As a result of pressure, Sri Lanka did not play well. Against a formidable Indian bowling attack, Sri Lanka produced one of their weakest innings. I congratulate the Indian cricket team on their highest-ever win over Sri Lanka. It has been a promising start to the New Year for India. |

A lot of things depends of FED decisions. If the USD will go stronger the gold can go down a little. Then it should go to 2000
I think USD is already quite strong looking at the USDT / EUR price? To be honest I thought it will drop a bit in near future and USDT will loose some strength but I am not an expert in this field and this is why it is great to discuss this topic with somebody more knowledgeable. I try to DCA so only question for me in both scenarios will be when to add more GOLD token to not miss opportunity if it spikes or to add for cheap if gold price will go down as predicted. There is no guarantee that gold will decrease in price if the US dollar strengthens, as other factors may remain strong, including global demand for gold. Recent years have seen record-high gold prices. Even if the US dollar were to strengthen, gold could reach $2,000 per ounce, but this is not guaranteed and depends on a number of factors. |

It was absolutely a well-deserved win for Barcelona in the Super Cup. Real Madrid were horrible in the first half. They tried to do something in the second half but they still couldn't prevent a 3-1 loss. It must be feeling nice for Barcelona to win a title in this season. Maybe it wouldn't be the same as the La Liga title but still it is a good achievement.
Now their target is going to be to win the La Liga title. Real Madrid will be a bigger threat there of course. I wonder if Barcelona will maintain this performance against Real Madrid again in the other El Clasico in the league later on.
Finally, Barcelona made its best contribution by winning in this very prestigious league. With the victory that Barcelona won, it is hoped that Barcelona's condition will improve and more investors will come in to provide support for Barcelona in the following La Liga season. Barcelona success in winning the Super Cup marks a turning point that has begun to show an increase in the quality of its squad. Barcelona was able to overcome Real Madrid game with its signature style, the combination of passing from foot to foot made it difficult for Real Madrid to develop the game. I was very impressed with Gavi appearance in this match, he played like a big star who reminded me of Iniesta. His goals and assists brought Barcelona to win their first trophy this season. The beginning of Barcelona's renaissance has begun, now Xavi will be aiming for the La Liga and Europa League Trophy to continue his success this season. As Barcelona manager, Xavi won his first trophy. As a result, Barcelona's hope has returned and its beauty has been restored. The substitution Xavi made today was the right one, he used the right tactics, and now they will arrange the game. In fact, it was one of the best performances they've given so far. Barcelona played so well tonight that I can't believe it. It has been an outstanding performance by the Catalans, they deserve the title after years of misery and the departure of Leo, congratulations. |

Arsenal are getting close to the Premier League championship more and more every week. This week was amazing for them as they opened the point gap with Manchester City three more points. Manchester City's position is even under the threat of Newcastle and Manchester United now. It is very interesting to see Manchester City this much struggling. But I enjoy watching this situation anyway. Because I'm really fed up with seeing Manchester City dominance in the league. It is time for some other teams to put on a good show. The matches between Arsenal and Manchester City will be very important for the championship. Yes, Arsenal are doing well from the beginning of this tournament but it will be difficult for them to win this premier league title, because Manchester city will never allow such thing to happen than to apply more skills that will help them to embrace the title again in this season. I think, it will be difficult for Arsenal to defeat Manchester city in this match, because they have defeated Arsenal before and they will still defeat them to reduce their points so that they can improve their points and to make their fans happy again. Arsenal can only fight for draw match but Manchester city will never allow such thing to happen in this match because they are well prepared to achieve victory from Arsenal. It's true that the match between Arsenal and Manchester City will be crucial, but at the same time, I just want to emphasize that one match cannot determine the Premier League title. In their last match, Arsenal put on a masterclass at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, whereas Manchester United defeated Manchester City in a close match. Since August last year, Arsenal has been the best, and it's not by accident! It takes hard work and teamwork! Arsenal is currently challenging for the title despite many saying it isn't ready yet. |

Chelsea signed Joao Felix overthrowing Manchester United, Arsenal, and Manchester City who were also in the race, now they have hijacked Mudryk, I wonder what their plan is now that they still go on a hunt for them. Does it mean that the attacking line is still contributing to Chelsea's poor performance? Enzo Fernandez would have been the best option for Chelsea's central midfield but I wonder why Bolly finds it difficult to look into it.
It doesn't matter what Chelsea sees yet; they will suffer. Chelsea can hijack as much as they want, but they need prayers rather than players. It was rather disappointing to see Chelsea's performance despite strengthening their attacking line. Are there any strategies Chelsea has to get the best out of its players? Let's see how it goes. |

Milan had a nightmarish first half against Lecce today. The first goal came as a result of a big mistake, then Lecce was able to score the second goal by pressing confidently thanks to an early goal. Even if the situation improved in the second half, Milan could not score the third goal to win.
Inter managed to gain three points thanks to an early goal. Although they put pressure throughout the match, they could not score the second goal. Their early goal brought Intere three points.
That's because Milan is not having the best of times at the club. They are missing several opportunities to get as many points as possible and get closer to Napoli. Inter, on the other hand, are playing much better than their rivals Milan. I think that the confrontation will be serious, but interesting. Losing two points at home to Lecce made Milan even more depressed. On the one hand, it is increasingly difficult for Milan to catch Napoli at the top of the standings, while on the other hand, Milan is almost being chased by Juventus and Inter, who are only one point away. Now the advantage is in Napoli's hands, Spalletti side are now 9 points ahead of Milan and 10 points ahead of Juventus and Inter. Napoli are getting comfortable in their position, I think Napoli will win the Scudetto this season due to their consistent performances. We have exactly half of the games left to play in the rest of the season. I also think that Napoli will be the winner this year, but it's still a long way to go. 9 or 10 points is not a big gap. The main thing is for Napoli to keep the same statistics of games, then everything will be fine. Napoli has so far put on a fantastic display. It's definitely their season! In this league, Juventus had been on top for years until the goat entered the picture. In yesterday's game, the majority of the game has been dominated by Napoli, leaving Juventus to chase shadows. It would be nice if they didn't stop any time soon, then everything would be fine. It took Napoli all the way to the Serie A title for the third time in their history. Their efforts are well deserved. |

Phenomenal knock by the king Kohli again score a century against SiriLankan, this is the 2nd century of king Kohli against SiriLankan in this Test and ODI series, he perform everytime everywhere when ever team need Now Kohli is about to score 150 runs, Also the Skipper Shubman Gill score a spectacular century in early stage of the game to give a strong moment to team to build a big target of 350+ to SiriLanka hope indian bowler will defend it easily..
A word is often heard that "Old Is Gold". Virat Kohli's performance seems to indicate the same thing. He completed his century in the first match of this ODI series. At that match he scored 113 runs from 87 balls. He had a bad performance in the 2nd match of the series and had to return with only 4. But he makes up for that deficit again in the 3rd match by getting another century. Sri Lanka was completely upset after playing with a huge target of 390. Only 49 score for 6 wickets came from the Sri Lankan bat. Sri Lanka was completely defeated in this match. But Virat Kohli introduce him again that he is still alive in cricket. Virat Kohli's score 166 runs in 110 balls and Shubman Gill scored 116 in 97 ball. These two players collected a huge run for India which enabled them to set a huge run target as India set a target of 390 runs to Sri Lanka which was truly unbelievable. Sri Lanka have scored only 57 runs so far and 8 wickets have fallen. Which is really sad. I think Sri Lanka lost confidence in themselves when they saw the target of 390 and they fell down a lot which is why they lost eight wickets for just 57 runs. India smass 390 in the final ODI courtesy of Kohli and Gill's sublime centuries. Virat Kohli has well and truly returned with a century. His innings became more open and fearless! This great man is setting the stage with his runs starting to flow. Both batsmen deserve credit for their magnificent centuries. The bowling attack, however, was very poor. This team makes me feel very sorry for them. It was a similar scene for Sri Lanka's batters as they all out at just 73 runs. |

Despite Man City's best efforts, Man United received a full point. At 82 minutes, Manchester United made a stunning comeback! There has been a lot of improvement at Manchester United. It feels like the Manchester Derby after so many years. Erik Ten Hag deserves credit. A brilliant reaction from Manchester United. Counterattacking at its best. Throughout the game, they have more clear-cut chances.

Arsenal looking for the possibilities to bought Raphinha from Barcelona this summer and Arteta feel Arsenal still required new winger and Raphinha might be suitable for his strategy moreover during in Barcelona Raphinha didn't get a place in the starting eleven because Xavi more trust other players than Raphinha so probably Barcelona will allowed him to moved if Arsenal offering good deal for them and apparently this summer Barcelona decide will sell some of their players and besides Raphinha i saw other players such as Ferran Torres and Ansu Fati will included into Barcelona sell lists for this summer
I don't understand why Barcelona does this to their players so often. Raphinha is a terrific winger without a doubt. Arsenal is among the top European clubs interested in signing the Brazilian. In the summer transfer market, Barcelona may sell Raphinha. He is not meeting expectations and they are not satisfied with his performance. While Raphina doesn't have much to offer when it comes to scoring goals, he is extremely good at creating chances. It is a good thing that Barcelona has the option of selling him and raising money in the process. |

Seeing Fakhar Zaman on song is one of the most satisfying things. Whenever there is a must-win game, he always steps up. His contribution helped Pakistan reach a competitive total following the decider of a three-match ODI series. As openers, the New Zealanders will have to bat carefully if they want to win this match, as spinners can cause them problems. As long as New Zealand sticks to its plan, it will be able to reach 280 runs. The run rate for their game is 5 runs per over.

When many Juventus players are injured like now, it is certain that Napoli will win the match against Juventus, Napoli must take advantage of this moment to get a large number of goals to add to their points at the top of the standings so that they are still in first place.
Of course Napoli don't want to lose at home to Juventus, moreover Napoli also see that Juventus are now in second place in the standings with the aim of shortening the points gap with Napoli who are still in first place. And on the other hand, Napoli also saw that several of the Juventus team players were injured and one of them was a centre-forward, so that might make Juventus reorganize their formation in a better way when competing at home to Napoli. Since turning around their fortunes, Juventus FC has moved up to second place in Serie A. However, if they defeat Napoli, we can say their fortunes have changed. It will be Max Allegri's Juventus playing league leaders Napoli in Naples on Saturday. Eight consecutive wins were achieved by Juventus. It's been eight wins without a goal conceded and now they're waiting for Napoli. The battle for the top is going to be epic. Defeating Napoli weakens the morale of the teams in the Scudetto race. |

I think there were be resistance at $19k as shown in the last 4 hours range, we did reach it unfortunately it was just for a short time. Meaning that there are selling that is going on when we peak at $19k.
The Bitcoin market is on the rise. Despite this, the bears aren't giving up. There is a crucial level of resistance that Bitcoin must overcome. At $19k, Bitcoin feels like it is experiencing bull euphoria. What are the chances of it rejecting $19k again? Let's see what happens. Up until the end of January, it's going to rise. Nevertheless, this is just the beginning, we shall see in the next 24 hours. If we can touch it again, then most likely the next pass will be the $20k that we have touch before, prior to the FTX collapse.
Are we finally going to see a breakout? It would be great to see that wedge break bullish. As a result of the FTX collapse, the pump was delayed. |

Actually, Chelsea didn't have enough morale boost in this game against Fulham. You know Chelsea are currently going through a really tough phase after the new coach, Graham Potter took over. On the other hand, on top of that last week they lost to Manchester City twice in a row. If they somehow managed to win this game against Fulham they could have brought back their morale boost but they failed to do so.
Chelsea's failure in the away game with Fulham was not only about their morale, but also because of factors that occurred in the match itself which was in the second half after Chelsea equalized through Kalidou Koulibaly's goal. In the 56th minute Denis Zakaria was injured and had to be substituted and added another player's red card (Joao Felix) in the 58th minute which made the Fulham team more profitable and also easy to win the game even though the ball possession was not much different for the two. Zakaria was injured, which is why he was subbed off. It was Joao Felix's first appearance as a Chelsea player that resulted in a red card. The debut of Joao Felix was good apart from the red card. As soon as the red card was shown, everyone returned to their positions. It's hard to say whether Chelsea's embarrassing defeats are due to the manager or the players. While no one is happy with the result, it's clear this is not just their season. There is a bouncer needed for Chelsea; they are getting beaten up. Next season will hopefully be better. Once again, Potter has demonstrated that he lacks the experience to manage a large team, and Fulham has shown that they are the landlords. |

AC Milan lost 0 - 1 to Torino in the Coppa Italia, as I was worried, that Milan would drop points in this game. For conditions like this, I think it will affect the mentality of the AC Milan players. They are under pressure, because Inter have the same points as AC Milan in Serie-A. Yesterday I said that. The defeat in the Coppa Italia against Torino added to the record that Milan often losing points against mid and bottom teams which they should have won. From this result, I doubt Milan will be able to fight for the Scudetto title.
The match that should have been AC Milan's victory, but apparently it didn't materialize. AC milan had a very difficult time against Torino, even 1 goal was created in additional extra time and at the same time made AC milan eliminated from the Coppa Italia competition. The points for AC milan and Inter Milan are not the same, AC milan is still 4 points ahead of Inter milan on the Serie A standings. AC milan's next match will be against Lecce, I think AC milan will still be on the winning track in this match and not think too much about defeat previously in the Coppa Italia. That's a big upset. In the end, luck does not always win. It's very unfortunate that you cannot even beat a ten-man team at home. Milan is eliminated in extra time by Torino, who are down to 10 men. Regardless, it still hurts. Unfortunately, management and the coaching staff did not address Milan's struggles before the world cup break. AC Milan put on a shambolic performance. |

Beautiful game from PSG as they beat Angers at home with a score of 2-0. Lionel Messi's return to the starting line-up made PSG's game come alive and raised the morale of his team-mates. Even Messi also scored 1 goal in this match, with this victory PSG managed to widen the distance back from Lens with a difference of 6 points. Meanwhile, in the other match, Lens was held to a draw by Strasbourg with a score of 2-2, the prediction that I have made long ago is true that Lens always has difficulties when dealing with Strasbourg.
Having won the FIFA World Cup, Leo Messi scores his first goal for PSG since returning to the club. A couple of outstanding saves by the Angers goalkeeper kept the score down for PSG, who won 2-0. So far this week, we have three wins and a draw. PSG has widened their distance back from Lens after losing 3-1 to Lens, a difference of 6 points they should maintain. |

2nd ODI Match India vs Sri Lanka. Indian cricket team is much stronger than Sri Lanka cricket team. In today's match Sri Lanka cricket team batted first and collected 215 runs losing all the wickets. Sri Lankan batsmen failed to score big under pressure from Indian cricket team bowlers Indian cricket team bowlers performed very well in bowling
3 wickets with in 80 runs still India is leading position according to match conditions. However, due to the sudden fall of three wickets, the run rate of the Indian team decreased a bit. Since the target is not very large, the speed of the run will not have much effect. But if two more wickets fall with in few overs then the match will go into a tough situation. India knows how to play in this adverse positions. As well, India lost their 4th wicket. When the top four batsmen are out, it does not mean they are not talented, but rather how talented the bowlers are. 2nd ODI is being spiced up by Sri Lanka pacers. It's a great match! There is a lot of good news for SL with the way they are playing these days. Fast bowlers always benefit from Kolkata pitches, and SL has been doing well. Even though India lost 4 wickets, this should still be an easy win for them. |
