Good start by Australia on the first day as they have got 346 runs on the scoreboard after losing 5 wickets. David Warner was agressive and was able to get 164 runs which looks great for a batter who was struggling a few years back.
Australia had a good day, especially David Warner, who responded to critics with an aggressive performance. He proved that he's not done with his Test career yet. Not looking good for Pakistan as they might get a big target of excess of 400 runs to chase. The second innings should start tomorrow and it would be interesting to watch Pakistan batters.
The Pakistani players are facing a tough Test series against the mighty Australia on their home ground. Unfortunately, they don't look good and seem to lack confidence. If the Pakistani bowlers can't take the remaining Aussie wickets, a total of 500 runs is likely on the cards tomorrow. |

If possibility become the winner of La Liga or not but Girona success change La Liga teams dominance with usually have Barcelona and Real Madrid but this season Girona success managed awhile top standings position.
At least Girona might still secure a UCL ticket next season even though they don't win the La Liga trophy, but this season the probability of winning the trophy is more inclined to Girona. We'll see how far Michel can go in bringing this club further to its best position. Apart from that, the rematch against Madrid should happen sooner, it would be good for both Girona and Madrid to prepare each other for their next meeting which is still a long way off. Because if Girona still survives until that time they will be closer to the trophy. Girona has never won a major trophy, but under Michel, they might be heading something special with this squad. After a successful win over Barca, their next test against Madrid. To be considered ready to fight for the trophy, they need to beat Madrid sooner. Since Girona is still yet to peak this season, and there's more to reveal from them. |

Manchester United are really crying for help these days.
Manchester United are crying for a new coach and i wonder when the board will work in that direction and fix it well. The Manchester United plays without tactics, no style of play, no build up plans or any attacking intents at all. What Manchester United is a better coach not that tactical fraud lol. This weekend, they face Liverpool; another demolition in sight. I really agree that if Manchester United changes its coach, it must be done immediately by Manchester United management if they don't want their team to get worse. Ten Hag has really failed to manage the Manchester United team because so far he has brought in all the players he chose but in fact Manchester United's performance has not improved. If Manchester United management does not immediately replace Ten Hag then I think Manchester United this season will not be able to finish in the European zone, maybe they will only be able to play in the middle of the standings. After the Champions League exit, fans are furious and calling for changes in the coaching staff. Man United crashed out of European football after their final group game against Bayern Munich, and there's no sign of an end to Erik ten Hag's misery. It seems he faces the possibility of being sacked as pressure continues to grow. Some fans are asking for his immediate removal. Of-course the current atmosphere is not healthy, and Ten Hag's further stay at the club could lead to more criticism. While it's easy to sack a coach and bring in a new one, the question remains: does anything really change in the end? |

Where's Manchester United? one of strongest club in this world must be able to qualify for quarter final either in Champions League or Europa League right? Can anyone mention which Premier League club that stay at the bottom during the group stage in Champions League except Manchester United?  However we have another exciting upcoming matches which are Newcastle vs Milan and Dortmund vs PSG, If both Newcastle and Dortmund win, this will be an interesting story again since PSG will not qualify to the next round. Manchester united has reduced to the last position in the group A, which is a sign that Manchester united will not go far in this champions league tournament because their performance in this season will not bring them good result. They started the match well in the first half, hopping that they will use home advantage to prove to people that they will use their opportunity well by defeating Bayern Munich 2-0, but the match change to another level in the second half that made Bayern Munich to scored a single goal in the 70th minutes to defeated Manchester united 0-1. I think AC Milan will defeat Newcastle united today because they are doing well in the Italian league competition which they can still prove it in this match to defeat Newcastle united 2-1. It was a must-win game for Man United. Winning the match wouldn't have mattered, but they went down fighting. Bayern hardly got out of second gear in a game that Man United had to win, managing only 1 shot on target. The 1-0 defeat to Bayern Munich under Erik ten Hag means they finish at the bottom of Group A and miss out on all European competitions. It was a disastrous campaign, and expecting a miracle in the last fixture after the previous blunders was too much. For Man United gaining points against Galatasaray and Copenhagen would have been enough, but unfortunately, they didn't. |

Boring 2nd T-20 primarily thanks to rain interfering once again. 180 against the South African firepower with a medicore Indian bowling lineup was never going to be enough. Arshdeep is easily one of the biggest leakers in the Indian team these days.
Am worried how rain will affect the upcoming test series between both teams.
South Africa played well. It seems like Indian players struggle when playing away from home. Of-course the future of Indian bowling looks concerning, especially with performances like Arshdeep's and others such as Mukesh, Avesh, Prasidh who tend to concede a lot of runs. The selection and strategy of the Indian team also seem to be contributing to their struggles. |

Hmmmm im not really concerning about the gameplay of al nassr. I expect people were calling it bad performance but since al nassr was winning the game and im good with it. The only thing that disappoints me is al nass conceded two goals against shabab.
Al nassr can get cleansheet and this would better for the club. I knew that if winning the game is the best result that can be achieved by the team but having cleansheet will make it even more perfect. Glad to see ronaldo was there on the score board.
Nassr and hilal have been getting perfect results in KCC. Im not really satisfying with what al nsser coz shabab scored two goals. Mitrovic and ronaldo have always become the main actors in any matches.
These guys were so crazy by keep scoring more and more without even took a break.
Im so happy with the result. These matches were giving me some bucks but that's still worthy enough. I knew that al nassr and hilal would have won the game easily without facing trouble against their opponents in KCC.
Well, with your statement I can tell, maybe you must be a big fan of Ronaldo as well and you prefer Al-Nassr to do much better and probably win the league but you should understand that in a game of football luck doesn't come everytime and Al-Nassr were unlucky not to keep a cleanshit, moreover both teams are playing with 11 men and if any team fails to defend properly it gives their opponents an opportunity to find the back of their net, but the good thing is that Al-Nassr found the back of their oppositions net 5 times and secured the 3 points which is most important. Moreover Cristiano Ronaldo scored in that game, he scored in the 74th minutes of the game to make it 4 goals for his team, Ronaldo has been very impressive this season and I'm vouching for him to still win the Golden boot of this season's tournament, and and if possible try harder to help his team remain consistent and get past Al-Hilal to win the Saudi Pro League this season. After Al-Nassr's 5-2 victory against Al-Shabab in the King's Cup knockout stage, they're confirming their spot in the semi-finals. It's fantastic to witness Cristiano Ronaldo scoring again. His unstoppable form is something to admire, showcasing his unwavering dedication to success. Ronaldo has not only introduce the Arab league but has also brought global attention to the league. With his fans rallying behind him, it's no surprise they hope for him to achieve everything this season. Although the emotional connection with his fans means a lot to him, it may not be enough to secure victory in every competition. BTW! Congratulations to Cristiano for reaching the milestone of scoring his 50th goal in 2023. |

Finally, there's a demerit point for the Mirpur Test. The pitch used in the second Test between Bangladesh and New Zealand has received a rating from the ICC. This decision from the ICC has been eagerly awaited. The Dhaka Test pitch has been given an unsatisfactory rating along with 1 demerit point.
ICC should advise the Bangladesh Cricket Board to improve pitch conditions before hosting any international matches. It's crucial for the BCB to ensure that such issues don't happen repeatedly.

Arriving Kylian Mbappe will make Madrid completed on all position, have good midfielder and Mbappe will make Madrid more solid on attacking line with Madrid easily to win many trophies next season. Lets hope official announcement with Mbappe agree for joining Real Madrid next season.
Madrid has some wingers right now. Having mbappe in the club may not make the club to perform better too. There are no guarantees that is having him in the club will make it even better. I rather than try to hire cheaper winger rather than him. Mbappe is not the only winger can score for the club. This is the main reason why club is not that interesting to sign mbappe but im not talking about EPL clubs coz they have money that can be used to buy everything. Madrid is the only way for Mbappe to continue to extend his brilliant career but that doesn't mean Mbappe has an important role for Madrid. Now the position has reversed because since Mbappe rejected Madrid first offer everything has changed completely. Madrid can still look for other player options that are cheap and even more suitable. Rumors are circulating that players from Brazil are being targeted in the transfermarket next season and I hope that Madrid will continue to create stability in every line. Vinicius and Rodrygo just need to continue to develop and for strikers it's up to Florentino Perez to decide. After the numerous controversies between Mbappe and the club looks like neither the clubs nor the fans have an interest in him. Instead of pursuing Mbappe, considering other player options might be more suitable for Real Madrid. For instance, Haaland would be a perfect fit as they are in need of a prolific striker rather than a winger. This choice makes more sense, especially since they already have talented wingers like Vinicius and Rodrygo who are improving with each game. While it's uncertain whether Madrid will secure Haaland, I hope for a solution that brings stability to the club. |

My guesses and predictions finally match the expectations about Tottenham vs Newcastle, finally Tottenham can make a comeback by winning three points in this match with a score that is quite satisfying in my opinion. Ange really made changes to his squad that have been proven in this match, with this result it is clear that the fans' confidence will be restored for the downturn in their pride team in the previous few matches.
The first half until before the second half ended Tottenham really didn't give Newcastle the slightest breath, I thought at first Tottenham would be able to get a full victory without having to concede a goal but it turned out that towards the end of the match Newcastle could make one advantage through a goal from Joelinton which finally the match ended with a score of 4 - 1 for Tottenham's victory. With this good result, Tottenham can finally get a little further away from Manchester United's pursuit in terms of points difference. Next Tottenham will face Nottm Forest and I think this will not be a difficult match for them.
This is quite a satisfying result for Tottenham after experiencing several quite bad matches and they managed to recover against Newcastle by being able to win with a fairly landslide score. Tottenham's performance is starting to improve, but I have a little doubt that they will be able to maintain this performance because since the start of the season, consistency has been a problem for the Tottenham team that has not been solved. And on the other hand, the Newcastle team has really slumped this season, with many of their main players suffering injuries, causing the team's performance to decline quite drastically, this is a very unfortunate thing because currently Newcastle is increasingly far from the points of the top teams. This weekend what was quite surprising was the Fulham team, in the last 2 matches they won with quite a big score, there is quite a significant increase in performance in the Fulham team's game at the moment and that is very extraordinary, I think they have to be able to maintain it to be able to continue to improve position in the Premier League standings. Spurs made a solid comeback. Tottenham has been performing well throughout the season, even if a few results didn't favor them. In this game, Tottenham demonstrated to Newcastle how intense a match should be. Honestly, Newcastle deserved to lose. Spurs played better on the night, and Newcastle is feeling the absence of their key players both in Champions League and other competitions. Whether it's fighting after the match or pumping up the crowd, it's clear Newcastle are facing challenges. This Premier League season has been a tough one for bookmakers. What a season! |

The defenders that al-Nassr currently have are really not that good. Al-Nassr needs better defenders. And Luis Castro as a coach is also aware of this. Because there has been a lot of news talking about this. It is difficult to balance a squad's performance when there is a gap between the front line and the back line. Al-Nassr has a good front line but their back line is really bad. And Luis Castro seems to have also tried several recipes or strategies to overcome this but still failed. So the solution might be to bring in defenders from the ranks of Europe's top defenders. Although there has been news about Al-Nassr approaching the Atletico Madrid defender. But the news is still unclear. This means, they already know their weaknesses, and they are currently waiting until the transfer window opens to recruit top defenders from Eurupa. That's good, I hope Al Nassr plan can be implemented as it should. Yes, previously I heard too. There were rumors about Al Nassr, which are want to recruit Mario Hermoso, the Atletico Madrid defender. But I heard they want to recruit him without transfer fees, because Mario Hermoso contract will end in June 2024. I've been thinking about this Al Nassr thing, and to be honest, I'm feeling a bit of both joy and doubt. Without a question, focusing on European defenders like Mario Hermoso is a great idea. Let's be honest: who wouldn't want a player like Hermoso to help their defense? This guy is a threat to score as well as a defender, which is like killing two birds with one stone. But this is where my doubts come in. This is a risky move if they really want to wait out Hermoso's contract until 2024. It makes sense to avoid transfer fees from a financial point of view, but what about right now? It's not likely that Al Nassr's security will hold up until then. They need more help right away, and if they want to compete this season, they should be looking for quick, if temporary, answers So that is now the problem and doubt for Al-Nassr fans. Because reportedly they want to wait for the player's contract to finish at Atletico Madrid at the end of this season. And yes, I think Al-Nassr's defense is currently in quite a critical condition. Because however, currently we see too many Al-Nassr conceding the ball. It's rare for Al-Nassr to win without conceding the ball. I think this is really risky if Al-Nassr doesn't immediately recruit this European defender. Or unless it turns out that in the January transfer window Al-Nassr will indeed have another target to come another players for their defense. But I have doubts too about this. Hermoso's contract with Atlético Madrid is almost up for renewal. While Atlético has the option to extend, the interest from Al-Nassr is altering the situation. Al-Nassr aims to secure Hermoso when his current contract expires next summer. The Saudi club Al-Nassr sees him as a key addition to fortify their defense. The decision might pose a risk if Al-Nassr doesn't secure an immediate signing. The player's opinion remains undisclosed, at the same time this leaving room for possibilities. Despite the tempting offer from the Saudi club, the decision won't immediately alter Al-Nassr's defensive situation. Perhaps they are planning to boost their defense next season, possibly leaving the current season as runners-up. |

Girona surprised me, I expected the game to be difficult because Barcelona have a very good defense, but the fact that Girona was able to score 4 goals against them is impressive. I didn’t think that after the away match with Barcelona, Girona would have a chance to top the table, this victory shows that Girona can resist the leaders and defeat them. They, along with Real, are still breaking away from the main group, but Atlético can still get closer to them, and Barcelona looks like it will not be able to defend its title this season.
Barcelona is really want to score a goal, so they're playing with under pressure. Barcelona only care with their attack since they've made 31 shots, but don't really care with their defend. I guess Barcelona might underestimating Girona because their previous matches they weren't so offensive like this one. I don't think Barcelona played badly in this match. However, Barcelona players could not break Girona's strong defense. Barcelona had a total of 31 shots in this match, 11 of which were on target. They did a lot of attacks. But even then they could not break Girona's strong defense. Girona's performance on the other hand was very stable. And seeing the performance of Girona in this match, I think this team has the ability to become La Liga champions this year. Their players are performing well, along with the team's match strategy is excellent. Girona put up a fantastic performance, showcasing their immense confidence. While I knew they were consistent, winning by such a margin was unexpected. They truly deserves the LaLiga title this season. Their outstanding performance, especially beating Barcelona 4-2 away, has propelled them to the top of the LaLiga standings. This team is a joy to watch, and their counter-attacks are simply outstanding. |

Aston Villa is gradually becoming a force in the EPL under Unai Emery. The club has moved to third position and will maintain the position regardless of the outcome of the Manchester United and Luton Town game, but if the games end in a draw like it is now, Aston Villa will be four points ahead of the current EPL champions.
Arsenal missed out on their chances and had to face the consequences. Aston Villa has been having a fantastic run in the Premier League under the management of Unai Emery. Securing a spot in the top 4 is the dream for this season, and the club seems to be making it! There are still areas to improve, and hopefully they'll make it.
Moving on to Man City vs Luton match, from 1-0 down, Man City secure all three points against Luton. This win is crucial for City, breaking a streak of not winning a Premier League match for over a month. The fact that they conceded a goal against the 18th-place team doesn't matter much, as the victory puts them back on the winning track. |

Due to Inter winning today's match, Juventus once again passed and went to the top number 1 position in the points table. I have a lot of support for Juventus and I think they will go back to the number 1 position in the next match. My favorite team is Juventus because I like their style of play. I think Juventus are very likely to win the Italian league this year. Milan is the capital of Italy and their team has been able to manage very well but this time they are far behind Juventus and Inter.
Juventus has now gone ten games without a loss, with 2 draws and 8 victories. These results are impressive, and it reflects positively on how the team is performing both on and off the pitch. When I see such a good record, I become quite optimistic. While the results are fantastic, I'd love to see them go on the attack against teams more. It's a brilliant effort by Juventus, and I hope it continues, leading them to win the Italian league! |

Today is the first match of India vs South Africa. This is a T20I series, and in this series, both teams will play three times in T20 format, This is a very long tour of the Indian team to South Africa because this tour ends on 3rd January so you can also say that this is a tour of one month and in this tour they played T20Is, ODIs, and the test matches so that's why this tour is too big, and by the way, Indian team never won a single T20 match in South Africa against South Africa.
So let's see if will India create history and walk with history. Also, the performance of the South African team was very good in the World Cup, so it will be a challenge for the Indian team to win in South Africa.
South Africa is known to be the toughest place to win, and adapting to the new challenges will be crucial. So, it's important to be fearless, but a bit of common sense is needed too. Definitely bounce, pace, and swing will pose challenges for the batsmen. Of-course, spinners will face difficulties with small grounds and non-spinning wickets. Sending best wishes to both teams for the upcoming three-match T20I series. While both teams are well-balanced, my prediction leans towards South Africa. Unfortunately, the weather doesn't look promising today; and I doubt there will be any play. |

For Bayern Munich, their loss to Frankfurt will cause them a lot in their title race should Bayern Leverkusen win Stuttgart in their match today.
It's quite a big goal difference, even from the start I was convinced the worst result was a draw. It seems that Tuchel's statement is correct, if Bayern's players take the match too easily. This resulted in their mental breakdown when the opponent made 2 goals. This saw the first half they lost by 3 goals. Even Frankfrut took the initiative to attack, they seemed to deliberately shock Munich by pressing above, so that Munich was not free to control the ball. In this match we saw the dominance of Frankfurt players from the start. Perhaps Munich's players were not ready for such an onslaught from Frankfurt. Frankfurt's players played well. They scored 5 goals, while keeping their defense strong. Bayern Munich's players made several strong attacks but failed to break Frankfurt's defence. The match was very important for Munich. Now it has become more difficult for Munich to occupy the top spot in the points table. Bayern Munich is 3 points behind Leverkusen. With Leverkusen's performance not weak, it will not be easy for Munich to occupy the top spot in the table. Huge victory for Frankfurt, and this isn't the first time they've pulled off such a win. Bayern's defense seems to be struggling. Something is off with this team; it's not the Bayern we're used to seeing. I feel for Harry Kane; winning the league seems difficult at this rate. Bayern Munich is giving Bayer Leverkusen a significant advantage. Leverkusen is performing better this season, and now they have more shot at securing the top spot. |

I wonder how Asto Villa will play against Arsenal... I'll bet on both teams to score... Probably Arsenal now looks stronger than Villa, but the last home match Villa won against Man City, and Arsenal with difficulty won Luton Town away... I hope that today will be no less interesting...
Instead I am not sure about Aston Villa that they will make a goal tonight, the article Arsenal's defense is also quite good for this season, they are very strong and firm the possibility of this match will end a goalless draw because both are the same as the best club this season, especially Aston Villa who is a subscription in the middle of the class, but this season Aston Villa was able to compete with top clubs and shift Man City as a defending champion .. It's true that at first glance Arsenal are very superior, but haven't you seen how Aston Villa played at home when they beat Man City. So there no harm in continuing to think that Aston Villa is currently an unexpected threat to Arsenal. However this is a challenge facing a strong club so Aston Villa must continue to do their best to show that this season they are capable of surprising the top teams. Maybe it could be a draw and definitely both will score goals or Aston Villa will shock the Premier League again whatever it could still be for more than 90 minutes. The game against Aston Villa is crucial for Arsenal. They need to bring in physical strength and aim for victory. Winning away matches, especially on tricky grounds, has been a challenge for Arsenal. To succeed, Arsenal should approach the game without being influenced by the previous Villa vs City match. Mental preparation is key, and if Arsenal can avoid defeat in their minds before the game, they have a good chance of winning. Aston Villa might face the consequences if there are no surprises on Saturday night. |

I didn't think I would get the results of Test matches in such a short time but Bangladesh and New Zealand didn't waste any extra time. The match would have ended on the third day had the rain not stopped play. The Bangladeshi batsmen came out to bat on the wicket in the second innings and they quickly returned to the pavilion. In the second innings Bangladesh lost all the wickets and managed to score only 144 runs, on the other hand New Zealand secured an easy victory in the second Test against Bangladesh with four wickets in hand. The result of the first test was in favor of Bangladesh and the result of the second test was in favor of New Zealand Test series draw.
New Zealand team would not have been able to win this match if Glenn Phillips did not bat well. Phillips' performance in both the innings was excellent. And at the same time the performance of New Zealand's top order players was not good. New Zealand lost 5 wickets for 46 runs in the first innings and the team lost 5 wickets for 51 runs in the second innings. Due to Phillips' responsible batting, New Zealand managed to collect big in both innings. I was sure that after the defeat in the first test, New Zealand would win the second match either way. Bangladesh needed at least 180-200 to defend. Such tricky surfaces often backfire, and Bangladesh lost. New Zealand did a great comeback, and credit goes to the excellent partnership by Santner and Phillips. Glenn Phillips did the right thing. You need to do a counter-attack on this kind of wicket. Very interesting stats: In the recent test, Bangladesh confirmed their first-ever victory against New Zealand on home soil, while New Zealand achieved their first test win in Bangladesh in 15 years. |

I do not know too much about Cardano just that it is current top 10 and many rave about it, would be good to hear thoughts on this both good and bad.
You don't know more about Cardano and you want to invest your money, when we have many potential altcoins in n the market that can give you double income if you can apply long term holding in that particular coin. There are some moved in the crypto market few days ago that make many altcoins price change positively which is a sign that Cardano will pump higher next year if you will be able to buy now and hold for the price to increase higher before you can visit the market to sell to make some income. If you are a short term holder, I don't think you will be able to make that kind of income from Cardano investment, because it require long term holding for you to be able to achieve something reasonable from your investment. Finally, Cardano is walking up. Cardano is one of my few long-term investments besides BTC. I've been holding since September 2021. For those who understand the 4-year cycles, while it definitely requires patience, so I'm feeling pretty good right now. I don't know what will happen next, but I feel good. From my understanding making a reasonable amount from altcoin investments requires luck because there's no shortcut. |

Juventus vs Napoli, this is a game you don't need to miss for any reason because this game will determine if Juventus will be among the teams that will meet for final battle or not because, Inter prove to people that they are among the team that will stand for final battle by beaten Napoli 0:3 in the home of Napoli. Can Juventus do the same thing in their home to beat Napoli, I think the result that will come up after the game will determine if Juventus will stay in that second position long.
Napoli will use all their power to fight Juventus today because, they will do everything possible not to allow them go down beyond 5th position because many of their fans are not happy the kind of results they got in this season.
Juventus is 2nd, only two points behind the league leader Inter. Although the difference in class between Juventus and Inter this season has been more significant than that 2-point gap. Juventus fans are dreaming about the Scudetto, and this game will determine the real perspective. After winning the Scudetto with Napoli, Cristiano Giuntoli will be trying to do the same with Juventus. Despite many things, I can't deny that this season is actually an opportunity for Juventus to rebuild, forming the foundation for the seasons to follow. Who knows, Cristiano Giuntoli will take them back to the glory days! |
