We are in 2024 and at this time Cristiano Ronaldo will be 39 years old and in 2026 he will be 41, performance wise there will not be much difference between 39 years and 41 years.  So if the performance he is doing now is right for the team, then he can definitely represent for the 2026 World Cup team.

What makes Ronaldo special and different from other players is that Ronaldo is really hardworking and very consistent. There are not many players with that kind of determination. So I think Ronaldo will still be called up to the 2026 World Cup and will probably be one of the oldest strikers to appear at the 2026 World Cup. Even though his performance is no longer the same as in his prime, Ronaldo is the same as Messi. They can make a difference and improve the morale of other young players. I still remember when Ronaldo encouraged Joao Felix when he was about to take a penalty at Euro 2016 and that really boosted Joao Felix's morale so he could take the penalty with confidence.

Unfortunately, Las Palmas couldn't do more in this match and they had difficulty even getting back just one goal. Even though Las Palmas performed quite well before this match and managed to beat Valencia in the previous match. Even though I already knew who the winner was, I at least hoped that Las Palmas could give Atletico trouble but unfortunately that didn't happen. Atletico has moved up to 3rd in the standings and they have the same 51 points as Barcelona, but Barcelona will still play today's match against Celta Vigo and it is hoped that the Blaugrana can win again after previously having to draw against Granada.

La Palmas did perform well in that match. They actually controlled the match and had more ball possession and more passes than Atletico. I'm not saying La Palmas should have won because we know Atletico's aggressive playing tactics meant they didn't have much possession of the ball. But as you say I think at least it's a 2-0 or 3-1 game. But it looks like Atletico really wants to destroy La Palmas after a bad result in the previous match.

I think Barcelona will win that game and return to third place. Even though Barcelona once lost surprisingly to Villareal, I think they will also do what Atletico did in that match.

That good win over Salernitana makes me excited about Inter's season. Simone Inzaghi is in a good place with a 10-point advantage. Being given such a cushion in Serie A enhances morale and lets the club focus on the Champions League. With Juventus remaining to play Verona, a struggling team this season, they might reduce the deficit, but Inter has the odds. Juve's slip-up would be the cherry on top. I believe Inter can win the Champions League and make a deep run. Good times for Inter fans, right?


With a point difference of up to 10 points, I think that is a number that is very difficult for Juventus to catch. Inter Milan have confirmed their position as League champions and I think Juventus will not be able to catch Inter again. And this allows Inter Milan to focus on the Champions League. They can rotate players and rest key players if they have a schedule close to the Champions League schedule. This will enable them to perform optimally in the Champions League. I think currently Inter Milan is the only team that can play optimally in the Champions League because they have already locked in the League title.

Another topic of discussion. Who do you think is most likely to lose their belt soon? For me personally, I think it's Sean O'Malley and DDP. I can see Sean losing to at least 2-3 fighters in his division and highly likely that Izzy will beat DDP. Will just have to wait and see.

If you look at their track record and how they got the belt, I think I agree with you. Sean got the belt after beating Aljo but I see it not being a convincing win even if it was a knockout win. And for DDP I also saw him win the belt by split decision, if my memory serves me correctly. DDP also seemed to have difficulty beating Sean several times. I think if it was a rematch then chances are Sean would beat DDP too. For the other champions, I think there is still nothing that can threaten their position at the moment.

Yeah at this time we cannot be sure who will be the champion in the Premier League Manchester City and Liverpool have the same opportunities but based on performance in my opinion Manchester City is better, at least lately. Arsenal are in the 3rd place but I'm not sure they can compete with this 2 top team, maybe Arsenal only target tickets to the Champions League.

You are right because in terms of quality I think everyone agrees that City is much better than Liverpool and they are the favorite team to win the title. But because this is Klopp's last season in the primary league, I think I actually want Liverpool to become champions. It will be one of the most memorable championships in the history of the English league. But I think it will be very difficult because Haaland and KDB have recovered from injuries and that will really add to the Citizen's strength to win the title.

The truth is that even before the birth of Lionel Messi, Argentina have already been known as one of the biggest footballing nations and should Lionel Messi decide not to continue playing for the Argentine national team, they're still gonna be major contenders for any competition they playing in and that's because of the intimidating quality of players in the Argentina national team as well as the young players in the team that's shown great potentials already.
That being said, Lionel Messi remains a pivotal member of the Argentina team and until he decides to call it a day in his illustrious international career, Messi will still be regarded as the most important member of the squad.

But young Argentine players still really idolize Messi. Even though there are many other Argentine legends, it is certainly an honor for young Argentine players to be able to play with Messi. And it will also increase the motivation and quality of young Argentine players. But still, without Messi, Argentina is still considered one of the strongest football teams in the world. As you said they have potential young players and several players who were part of the 2020 world cup squad. This is a combination that can intimidate other teams in the world cup.

It was rumored that De Jong would leave the team during the summer transfer window, but he chose to stay in the team. Now he is still performing well in Barcelona. I don't know whether he will leave the team or not, but I think he deserves a higher contract if he stays in Barcelona. It is now clear that he is an important player for the team.

De Jong has become a core player at Barcelona. Even though Barcelona has had bad results in the last few matches, we can see that overall De Jong's game is very good. He appears very consistent in every game. I agree that De Jong deserves a higher contract. Barcelona must offer him a good deal because according to what I read in the news it is stated that Chelsea and United are also interested in bringing De Jong to England.

Indeed, quite a few of those who lost their bets in this match may not have seen that Bologna this season appeared very impressive, even strong teams such as Inter, Juventus, Milan, Napoli, Roma, Lazio and Atalanta were held to a draw and some of them were who wins. And this victory against Fiorentina could be said to be a revenge match after Bologna lost the Copa Italia against Fiorentina.

Bologna's victory also made Serie A more competitive, especially in the race for the top four. Currently the teams nicknamed the Dark Horses such as Atalantaa and Bologna are ready to fight for the top 4 positions, and these two teams have both performed impressively this season even though Atalanta is more experienced and consistent, but Bologna's progress in Serie A this season is worth paying attention to.

I bet on Bologna winning that night. My reason is simple. Even though Fiorentina is called one of the big teams in Serie A, their performance in the last five matches has been very bad and Bologna's performance has been quite good and solid. Next, I like betting on teams with better rankings because it can give you better opportunities even though the reward is small. But I exclude certain situations such as in the English league or when mediocre teams are showing their performance like Lyon. I even bet on Lyon winning when they play against Rennes later.

Although Real Madrid won this match, I am not happy with Real Madrid's victory. Real Madrid were a strong team but managed to win by just one goal. I expected Real Madrid to win by a bigger margin but it was a very competitive game until half time. Leipzig attacked a lot, with the Leipzig team hitting the goal post with 14 and Real Madrid with 15.


I think what makes Madrid strong and favorites is their winning mentality. I think a score of 1-0 is enough for them because they can really perform solidly and have a very good mentality. You can see how they were able to escape the pressure in La Liga when Girona put pressure on them in the previous few weeks. They were able to play solidly and yesterday they were able to beat Girona 4-0 and make them very likely to become La Liga champions this season. I think the same thing will happen in the Champions League. They won't be able to score a lot of goals but they will be able to perform solidly in every match.

Let’s be realistic it will be hard for Chelsea to actually finish in that top five position because most of the teams in those positions are not ready to drop points. Chelsea can still finish in European positions like the seventh place but the five seems to be a battle between Aston Villa, Manchester United and Newcastle United this three clubs do not look like they will slow down a bit now for Chelsea to climb up. The lasts wins was more like against struggling teams because the Aston Villa match as an FA cup and not league.

You are absolutely right. People who think Chelsea will get a ticket to the European league with their current form I don't think they are thinking realistically. Currently Aston Villa, Manchester United and Newcastle are also playing very well and they will not let Chelsea take or shift their position. Chelsea are also more than 10 points behind Aston Villa so how is it possible to say Chelsea will get a place in the European league next season? Currently, the tickets to the European league actually belong to Aston Villa and United because the two teams are only 5 points apart at the moment.

He is maybe one of the best players in the world right now and maybe after a few years, still he will be one of the best players in his own country but the fact about Messi is he is getting old and he can't have a good performance like him older days and letting him play at this age can make people to have bad memories from Messi when he is not in the good form.


I don't want the 2026 world cup to be the worst year in Messi's career. I mean Messi has got everything in football. There is nothing else he pursues in football. Messi has become a legend and his rivalry with Ronaldo has been recorded in history. I don't have a problem if Messi is still called up for the 2026 world cup because we know Messi will really motivate young Argentine players. I just hope people don't have high expectations for Messi. And the coach also didn't put much pressure on Messi at the 2026 World Cup.

Barcelona will now look to perform well against Napoli in the  Champions League clash. Barcelona's performance will be stable and if the defenders play well, Barcelona have a chance to  win. However, there is considerable doubt  whether Barcelona's defenders will be able to play well.

I think Napoli will watch the replay of Granada holding Barcelona to a draw. Overall the Barcelona defenders really performed poorly. They have conceded 33 goals and that is a very bad result for their defense. Napoli can use this weakness to win. Even though Napoli is in poor form in Serie A I think Napoli will not be beaten easily. I bet the match will end in a draw. Both teams are not in good form.

As you said, it looks like the race for the Scudetto is over after Juventus were narrowly defeated by Udinese. It is very difficult for Juventus to catch up with the huge point difference, but Juventus still has a chance until the end of the season by always maintaining its performance on a winning track and hoping that Inter will lose points in several matches. This scenario could happen if Inter loses several key players due to injury. Inter must not be too quickly satisfied with the superior points they have accumulated, they must remain focused on keeping their distance from Juventus so as not to be pressured in the remaining games this season.


I think it's absolutely impossible. The battle for the title ended when Juventus was defeated by Inter Milan. And their defeat to Udinese now leaves them 7 points behind. That is a very distant point because Inter Milan have been very strong and consistent this season. Expecting Juventus to achieve several wins and Inter Milan to lose due to injuries and inconsistency in my opinion is a fairy tale that is almost impossible to happen. Inter Milan only lost once and drew 3 times from 23 matches. They achieved the most wins in Serie A this season. So how could they lose the title this season? I dont think so.

Selama ini masyarakat selalu diminta untuk menaati hukum, tetapi mereka yang memiliki jabatan tertentu selalu bermain dengan hukum, selama peraturan tidak ditegakkan, hukum akan selalu tajam ke bawah dan tumpul ke atas. Yang harus diperbaiki atau di dibenahi dari sistem hukum di Indonesia adalah perubahan sikap dari semua orang yang terlibat dalam hukum, mereka harus tegas pada pelanggar hukum. Intervensi dari orang-orang yang memiliki jabatan lebih tinggi harus di publish ke media agar masyarakat tahu siapa sebenarnya orang-orang yang bermain dibalik tumpulnya hukum.


Ane rasa perubahan itu memang harus dimulai dari atas. Karena ane melihat yang menyebabkan terjadinya ketidakadilan hukum di indonesia ini adalah karena oknum-oknum atas atau elit yang berkuasa yang memainkan hukum seenaknya karena tidak ada lagi yang di atas mereka. Karena itulah besar harapan ane agar mereka yang menjadi kepala suatu pemerintahan / institusi agar bisa amanah dalam menjalankan tugasnya. Ane kasih contoh seperti kepolisian. Ane rasa jika kapolres atau kapolseknya tegas dalam menindak pelanggar hukum, maka ketidakadilan dalam hukum akan menurun. Karena para bawahan tidak berani berbuat macam-macam karena atasannya amanah. Begitu juga dengan yang diatasnya dan seterusnya.

Jadi ane rasa semua ini bisa diperbaiki jika dimulai dari atas, dan akan mustahil diperbaiki jika memulai dari bawah. Karena orang bawah kalau memulai sesuatu pasti akan terbentur sama atasan-atasan.

Sorry, Salernitana lost against Empoli not Everton.lol
It is not yet certain because mathematically it is still possible for Salernitana to catch up on points, but their performance is quite bad or they have not been able to recover until now, the percentage that they will be relegated is very large.


You're right LOL. I think it was a typing error because Empoli and Everton have almost similar prepositions. Sorry.
This bad result brought Salernitana closer to the brink of relegation. Currently they are 6 points behind the safe zone. And with their current form and the number of games remaining I think we can bet that Salernitana will be relegated for sure. Only a miracle made them get out of the relegation zone. I can only hope the best for Salernitana because it seems like they no longer have hope Sad

The quality of Real Betis is indeed much better and it was quite difficult for Cadiz in this match to be able to match it and Real Betis' defense was very strong, which is what the Cadiz players couldn't penetrate.
I think this result is very normal and fair for both teams, Cadiz have done their best and I saw that in the last few matches their performance has improved a little, but in this match they couldn't do much because the opponents they faced were of much better quality.

You are right. Even though Cadiz has more ball possession than Betis, we have to admit that Real Betis' quality is much better than Cadiz in all areas. This victory puts Betis in sixth place in the standings and qualified for the European Conference league qualification. At least for now. And this defeat makes it difficult for Cadiz to get out of the relegation zone because Mallorca, who is ranked 17th, is 3 points ahead and still has one game left.

I mean, what if he plays the next world cup and doesn't win it?, he will definitely retire after that one, and it would be a bit more disappointing than retiring as a champion.

You are right. I think so too. Although I see Messi will still be called up to the Argentina national team if he doesn't retire. But what if Argentina loses? And what's even worse, what if Argentina experiences a world cup curse where the team that won the previous world cup will have difficulty qualifying from the group stages in the next world cup? That would be the worst moment for Messi because of course some people would blaspheme him. If Messi doesn't retire I'm sure he will still be called up. The decision is in his hands to choose to answer the call or not.

although everton has just been able to draw totenham hotspur. but manchester city is very different. manchester city is a stronger team. and manchester city is still in the championship race so the orientation is pragmatic to win and points. and everton is a weak team and has to do an away match at manchester city's home.

We really can't equate Tottenham and Manchester City. Tottenham are doing well but they are not title contenders. They have also been inconsistent this season. City is far superior to Tottenham in various aspects. City are also motivated to win the title this season so of course they will go all out to win that match. Because if they draw then they will collect 50 points and that is still 1 point behind Liverpool. A win would ensure them a place in first place.
