Who would have believed it would be Crystal Palace that would make Liverpool drop three points, even when Liverpool was at home? This is an important match for Liverpool, but they failed to beat Crystal Palace to go top in the Premier League table. Liverpool is now in third place in the Premier League table. This is a good opportunity for Arsenal to beat Aston Villa and go top in the Premier League table.
I also didn't expect it and was a little surprised when I saw Liverpool lose at home against Crystal Palace. This is certainly not what Liverpool wants because they are struggling to get a trophy this season, but Liverpool have to accept this bitter reality through Crystal Palace today even though Liverpool are still on track to win the title this season. Meanwhile, for the Arsenal match, I see that there are still no goals scored so for now Arsenal still have to be in second place, because if Arsenal is able to win, of course the top position will be theirs today even though in the next match there can still be changes if Arsenal didn't win

This was a completely unexpected result. Against Atalanta, Liverpool coach Klopp rested key players in his squad in the first half. Because he does not want any important player of the squad to face injury while performing in the Europa League match. Liverpool were badly beaten in the Europa League match. And the team was also defeated in the Premier League match. In this match, Liverpool's players could not score a single goal after attacking a lot. Crystal Palace's defense and goalkeeper played very well in this match.

Liverpool are now 2 points behind Manchester City. If Arsenal can win against Aston Villa then Arsenal will go 3 points ahead of Liverpool. It is very difficult for Liverpool to win the Premier League title.
With the result of the Liverpool game against Crystal Palace at Anfield this afternoon, Liverpool have failed to win any of their last three games in all competitions of which they lost two and drew one. Last week Sunday, they finished their game against Manchester United with a 2:2 draw but were still expected to beat the Italian club Atalanta in their UEFA Europa League quarter final encounter at Anfield on Thursday but the shock of many, Liverpool were disappointingly beaten at home with a 0:3 scoreline.
After Manchester City won their league game against Luton Town yesterday, they climbed to the submit of the league table which means that Liverpool needed to beat Crystal Palace at home today to climb back to the submit of the league table. Surprisingly against, Liverpool lost the game even when they were played it in their own home ground. Jurgen Klopp really need to do something as fast as he can to improve the confidence of the club players or lose out in the title race

Today Bayer Leverkusen will face Bremen at home, after seeing Munich win in yesterday's match Bayer Leverkusen will definitely want to continue their winning record when they face Bremen later, they are not too tough an opponent for Bayer Leverkusen even though they are in the middle of the table and have the worst results what Bayer Leverkusen might achieve is a draw but I don't think that will happen when facing Bremen, but no one knows the surprise because we haven't seen Bayer Leverkusen defeat for the first time, who knows, the lower level teams will be able to give Bayer that surprise.

Bayer Leverkusen need to win this game to achieve two things: a record for not being defeated for long time and to grab the Bundesliga title from Bayern Munich which dominated it for so many years too.
Xabi Alonso could celebrate the Bundesliga title with his team and fans since today at home once they defeat Werder Bremen, let's not forget this important point Wink
Xabi Alonso, he is a complete genius, so incredible, efficient in his career as a player and still holding the efficiency as a coach with Leverkusen. I am far impressed by the long record he has broken and probably be setting today another exceptional record when they win werder bremen.

I read on X that in light of today's game Leverkusen has to rename the street leading to their stadium after him Xabi Alonso and to me that a beautiful way of showing appreciation for a job well done. https://twitter.com/DeadlineDayLive/status/1779495150047117390?t=PcRD1yqyWpu3LZPnSco4Jg&s=19
Bayer Leverkusen are currently leading in their German Bundesliga home game against Werder Bremen and must protect their win to be crowned German champions for the first time since the formation of the club thanks to Xabi Alonso's incredible performance as the club manager. Since the young Spanish manager became the club manager, he's significantly improved the general performance of the club and has made them become one of the best teams in not just Germany but in the whole of Europe.
Victor Boniface who scored of the two goals that Bayer Leverkusen needed to beat West Ham in the UEFA Europa League competition last week Thursday gave the league leaders the lead in the 25 minutes by converting from the spot and with the rousing and thunderous sounds from the stands, the Bayer Leverkusen players are getting all the support they need to protect their win and help the club fans live their dreams of winning the German title at the end of the game

I honestly hope Bayern doesn't get Nagelsmann back, they didn't utilize his greatest talent, which is team building, and used him for his tactics, now that they are losing players left and right to old age, they are looking at Nagelsmann again, they should have done it when they had him. In any case, I still think that Bayern is rich enough to get Xabi eventually, if they do offer big enough, there is no way Xabi would stay, so they are going to get someone temporary anyway.
On the other hand, I don't have a problem if Nagelsmann returns to coach Bayern Munich. The reason is last season Thomas Tuchel was given the opportunity to replace his position, now there is no reason for Tuchel to keep him and the results have proven to be very disappointing. If Nagelsmann return is able to return Bayern Munich's performance to a better direction, anyone even Bayern fans, will agree. However the problem is whether Nagelsmann is really willing after being dumped in a disrespectful way. Based on my knowledge, many Bayern Munich coaches received disrespectful treatment when they were fired. Nagelsmann will laugh at management decision if he accepts the offer. Wasn't Nagelsmann last season considered a failure? Bayern Munich actually does not lack great players or reliable coaches, but what Bayern Munich needs is team unity in implementing the strategy. Tuchel is a good coach but does not find mutual compatibility with the players.
When Julian Nagelsmamm was sacked from his position as Bayern Munich boss last season, the club was still in the UEFA Champions League competition as well as in the top of the German Bundesliga table but the club management felt that he's not tactically capable of helping the club achieve their aims of last season so they hired Thomas Tuchel as his replacement and since the former Paris Saint Germaine and Chelsea manager became the club manager, he's not been able to live up to his expectations. So should Tuchel leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season, I don't the it'll be an honourable decision for Julian Nagelsmamm to accept to return to the same club again.
Nagelsmamm for now, is saddled with the job if helping the German national team win the upcoming UEFA Euros Championship and I think the German manager is more concerned about that task than whatever offer that's coming from Bayern Munich. If for any reason Julian Nagelsmamm decides to leave his current job as the coach of the German national team, I think he'll get other good coaching jobs other from that of Bayern Munich

There is sad news for teams like Liverpool and Bayern Munich and that's about Roberto De Zerbi the coach of Brighton. Since De Zerbi had a perfect performance during this season in all the games we saw from him in Brighton, there are some teams that want to hire this Italian coach. Even Barcelona was close to hiring De Zerbi when they wanted to stop working with Xavi.
But when De Zerbi was talking to an Italian channel he said he is not interested in leaving the Premier League however he likes Italian and Italian football. Since Juventus had bad performances with their coach De Zerbi was also linked to Juventus for the next season.
I think De Zerbi has a long-term plan in Brighton however so far Brighton is in the 10th place in the premier league.


The performance of Roberto De Zerbi at Brighton since he became their manager have been very immense if you ask me and if for any reason he decides to leave the club, I think many of the top clubs are going to make sure they sign him. A lot of top European clubs have reportedly shown interest in him already but I don't think the Italian manager would want to leave Brighton at the end of the current season. The recent interview were he said he likes Italian football I don't think suggests he wants to join an Italian team but because he's admiring the style of football in his country home. He's still very much interested in his team and would do everything to protect his interest

This season, the Barcelona team withdrew from the fight for the title of La League at the beginning of the season. Girona and Real Madrid have battled for the La Liga title since the start of the season. Barcelona's performance was somewhat erratic

This is Xavi's last season at Barcelona. He will definitely try his best to do well in the Champions League. Xavi won the La Liga title last season. Having won the Champions League title, Xavi will want to make his journey with Barcelona memorable as a coach as well. However, if you want to win the Champions League title, such an irregular performance cannot be done. Barcelona players need to work harder.
Even though Barcelona performance is uncertain, I think progress in the UCL is enough to support them to qualify for the semifinals. They have shown a great game and beat PSG at the opponent home ground. This shows that Barcelona currently has quite a big opportunity and the task is easier because in the second leg they are playing at home. Even though Barcelona scheme did not win the UCL trophy, Xavi is still considered to be a coach who has made many changes amidst Barcelona messy financial condition. In my opinion, he has been able to survive and by maximizing what he has, Xavi can be said to be quite lucky, because now the most disadvantaged is when Xavi has to leave and Laporta will have difficulty finding a replacement.
Yes, Barcelona, even though it doesn't look like they're doing well, their consistent performance is very worthy of appreciation, whereas if we look at and compare with Real Madrid who are in first place but are doubtful of being able to qualify for the semi finals while playing away from home, Real Madrid will definitely have difficulties.
Barcelona in the upcoming match will be the host while the aggregate score is superior to PSG.
I have speculation that Barcelona will qualify for the semi finals and Real Madrid will fail and will only focus on winning the title in LaLiga.
Xavi is not only lucky but he has extraordinary intelligence and is able to make a good contribution to provide good achievements in the future.
Xavi departure will worry all fans because if they get the right coach, Barca players will definitely not have such a strong performance.
Barcelona might not have been able to defend the Spanish La Liga title this season but the truth is that they've been very impressive despite having so many of their players sidelined because of the various injuries they sustained this season. The club manager Xavi Hernandez isn't getting all the credit he deserves after all he did to keep the club running despite all their setbacks. When they were drawn against Paris Saint Germaine in quarter finals of the UEFA Champions League, I was of thd opinion that Barcelona would be easily eliminated from the competition but their impressive performance in the first leg of the game that helped them get a win against the French champions at Parc des Princes was very surprising to me. Barcelona with that win are now very likely to to reach the semi finals of the competition despite not spending much in the transfer window.

It was so bad to see Manchester United struggling to equalize Bournemouth in this game and if not that the tackle happened outside the 18 yards box, Bournemouth would have had a penalty and possibly scored. Manchester and Chelsea continues to struggle in this ending stage of the season and it is very clear that they are most likely not to qualify for European competition next season if we consider the remaining matches before the season comes to an end
The opportunity to qualify for European competition, namely the European League, is closed. We realize that that is something that is difficult to achieve for the teams we still loyally support. We don't want to compare with other teams and we also don't want to use other teams' performance as an excuse to avoid the situation we received this season.

There are only 3 teams that are considered easy for us to win from the remaining 6 matches. The 2-2 draw at Vitality Stadium was a result that was far from expected, but we accept and assess the many shortcomings that Manchester United has.
With a draw, our position was taken by Newcastle who managed to win against Tottenham.
Manchester United since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club have been struggling to go back to their status as one of the biggest clubs in the whole of Europe but have failed to get a manager that'll help them achieve that feat over the years despite spending so much to acquire quality players. Their current manager Erik ten Hag is a good coach without doubt but not for a big team like Manchester United if you ask me because despite the time and resources that he's gotten from the club management since he arrived, he's yet to improve the club performance. Against Bournemouth today at the Vitality stadium, Manchester United were simply the second best team and had to struggle to get an equalizer in the dying minutes of the game. If Manchester United must improve and become tactically strong to compete for major honors again, then I think they should relieve the Dutch man of his duties at the club and go for another manager
707  Other / Off-topic / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: April 13, 2024, 08:49:16 PM
The reason why I'm not addicted to gambling is because even before I started to play gambling I already understand gambling and its addiction, and my understanding has helped me on how to follow up gambling. Sometimes I ask myself why do people get addicted to gambling, is it because they have no understanding or awareness about the addiction of gamble.

 I think majority of people who are addicted to gambling is because they do not understand gambling as beginners, the rules and the side effects of playing gambling excessively.

I think if gambling companies can help to giving beginners to understand gambling and addiction it will help and reduce the rate at which people get addicted o gambling, I mean good lesson for people to get understanding.  Or do gambling companies benefit from gamblers who are addicted, which the awareness of getting addicted can affect their business?.

Maybe the only thing we can do as a community in this field of the platform is to remind people of the pros and cons of gambling. Because, at the end of the day, they are still responsible for their gambling decisions.

It's not bad to gamble as long as we don't let ourselves be damaged and our family suffer just because we let ourselves become addicted to gambling. As much as possible, let's not let greed control us in our person.
Gambling as we all know are only meant to be practiced by adults and that's why it's very important to notify anyone who wants to engage in gambling about the risks in gambling as well as the effects of getting addicted in it because at the end, they'll make their own gambling decisions which nobody will have any power over them. No body told me about the effects of gambling addiction before I started gambling and that resulted to becoming a gambling addict that I really suffered so many losses before I got rid of the addiction. You made mention of creating a community for awareness and educating newbies about the effects of gambling addiction and how to avoid them. I don't think we'll have such community on this forum and that's why newbies are directed to come thread and topics like this to learn
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never gamble in front of your kids. on: April 13, 2024, 07:09:43 PM
They really learn fast but I don't think they see it as gambling money as we do unless you tell them that. Any game they play is just fun for them and that's probably how your kid think of it. I once saw a buddy of mine let his son play dice on mobile and he didn't find it alarming. The kid actually got bored.

Social gatherings is where kids probably see more gambling activities when adults play table games as a past time. They would usually put money on the table while some kids would be watching at the back. Many of us here probably grew up in that kind of environment. We learned how to gamble at a young age but still ended up fine.

Yet its not very advisable to let your kids play gambling games, where I live you would see lots of underage children come to charge their phones at the bet shop and not too long some started engaging in football arguments with the adults, and that's how they started gambling, some did fine and only saw it as a means to get some extra cash, others or few got notorious and it became a live long habit.

Don't act the way you don't want your kids to act, they learn quickly, they would copy and even replicate that habit and you woudl never know how it would be for them, so it's better you don't teach them, but still if you could teach them to have self control and view it as fun then you have very little problem.
Parenting is one obligation that requires absolute intentionality and that's why it's advised for adults who are not fully ready to carefully raise their wards not to have kids in other not to birth children that'll become societal nuisances. Kids are known to be very smart in learning and will always put in practice whatever they see an adult do and that's why adults shouldn't do anything that's not ideal for children in the presence of children. Gambling is only meant for adults and not kids so gambling in front of the kids is a way of introducing them to gambling at a very early stage of their life which is very likely to make them want to try what they see their parents do and because they don't know the consequences of gambling without caution, they're certainly end up as gambling addicts.
709  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 13, 2024, 07:01:01 PM
only zero to zero after the first half between Juventus and Torino.

The match isn't as fun as it often happens lately but the only thing that matters are the points brought home

next year Serie A should have 5 places available for the Champsion League so the minimum objective could be fifth place and no longer fourth.
The match will soon end and there is no change, the score remains 0-0. Will Juventus achieve unsatisfactory results again? It would be a shame if they couldn't win, because it would threaten their position in the standings. However, considering the remaining time, it looks like they will only be able to get 1 point, they hope they will get some luck in the last minute.

To be honest, they deserved this draw if we look at the game of the two clubs playing in this match, they didn't have many chances and the match was even. Torino managed to make it very difficult for Juventus in this match so that they could prevent Juventus from dominating and developing their game.

If this result lasts until the end, this will be the 10th draw achieved by Juventus in Serie A this season. I thought they would be able to win, but in fact they had a very difficult time scoring goals in this match.
It's full time in the game between Torino and Juventus and it ended in a goalless draw as none of the two teams were able to score in the game. Juventus who started the season on a very impressive form and were even considered as a serious contender for the Italian Serie A have since lost their good form and are now comfortable with fighting for a top four finish. They're currently in the third position of the leaf table with just 63 points and if fifth placed Roma should win their game against Udinese tomorrow, they'll be five points behind Juventus which will i think will open a battle for the a top four finish between Juventus, Bologna and Roma
710  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: April 13, 2024, 06:47:27 PM
Maybe we'll see a more competitive Ligue 1 next season because the news about Kylian Mbappe's move is getting hotter, what do you think, will PSG still compete in the top 4 next season if Kylian Mbappe leaves PSG?
Mbappe's departure should not be a big problem, because they actually have a better quality team than other clubs, but their dependence on Mbappe is actually a problem for them. If Mbappe leaves then it is very likely that they will also bring in other quality players, especially since they have very good finances which means they can pay whatever players they want.

They should have prepared for this, I mean when they still have star players in their squad at the same time building a solid team. But unfortunately they didn't do that and only focused on a few players. For Mbappe alone, how much of their time did they spend trying to get Mbbape to stay with them, and in the end, Mbappe's decision to leave turned out to be something they couldn't stop anymore. If they used their time for something that could be their future, that would be very good. But once again they don't do that for their future.
Even without the presence of Kylian Mbappe, the current squad of Paris Saint Germaine will still remain the most star studded and expensive team in the whole of France and that's because the club owners have been very active in signing high profile players to the club for more than the last one decade. However, you we can't shy away from the the fact that Kylian Mbappe have easily been the club's overall player since he arrived the club. Kylian Mbappe is a big player that's capable of winning games on his own for the team so when he finally leaves the club, they'll definitely feel his absence no matter how much they try to replace him. Paris Saint Germaine will still continue to dominate the French league after Kylian Mbappe's exit but I think they'll need time to deliver great performances that they do deliver with the presence of the France international

Most probably Liverpool is forced to win tomorrow together with Arsenal after City destroying Luton in today game,for Liverpool I am afraid of their psychological level as they were defeated 0-3 in Anfield from Atalanta in midweek in Europa League and I don't remember when it was last time Liverpool suffered such a defeat at home,it must be quite a looooong ago.
Liverpool will have to win by many goals, Manchester City already have passed them on goal difference, and that is not where Liverpool would like to be. Arsenal will also need to score goals too because Manchester City are closing in on their goal advantage. Jeremy Doku played very well in the game today, scored a very nice goal and created enough chances for his teammates. The Manchester City coach will be proud because he has been able to win this game very well, while resting some important players like Phil Foden and Rodri because they still have serious games coming up.
Manchester United are the team left to play today, another loss will not sit well with their supporters.
Liverpool must exert significant effort and perform admirably in their upcoming match, as well as battle for a large number of goals in order to dominate. Manchester City now leads the league, but this does not guarantee that they will remain there indefinitely. Arsenal is play against Aston Villa tomorrow, and I'm hoping that they'll find the match fascinating enough to win because it's critical for Arsenal to win their next game.

The contest between Manchester United and Dortmund is still in progress. Dortmund had a 2-1 lead at the end of the first half, but when they returned for the second, Bruno had given Manchester United a point after winning a penalty. However, given Dortmund's success thus far, I don't think Manchester United can win this game. Manchester United only leads by possession because of their poor performance; if not, Dortmund is playing a more compelling game due of their excellent play, which gives me hope that they can win the match.
Manchester City's win today against Luton Town helped them to climb to the top of the English Premier League table for the first time since November. But their position at the top of the league will be short-lived if Liverpool and Arsenal win in their games tomorrow. Liverpool will host Aston Villa tomorrow before the Arsenal game against Aston Villa and considering the performance their opponents when compared to them since the start of the season, it's obvious that both Liverpool and Arsenal stands a good chance of winning their games. This is Jurgen Klopp's last season as a Liverpool manager and I'm sure he knows the consequences of allowing Pep Guardiola's Manchester City to remain at the top of the league after the end of match week 33 of the English Premier League so I expect Liverpool to put outside their disappointing performance against Atalanta ok Thursday and deliver a great performance that'll help them win their game against Crystal Palace tomorrow

Premier League referees with their selfish interest will find a way to abuse it because we have seen so many cases where the premier league referees do make errors while playing in the game and apologize after the match , but the technology works for the betterment of officiating the premier league matches.

Yes, these have even been errors that changed the direction of many matches. A goal that wasn't given to Luis Diaz vs Tottenham, a very obvious penalty which wasn't given to Liverpool vs Manchester City and many more...

I assume we are going to start AI taking over in matches instead of human referees at a point. It is difficult to predict when but I believe that it will happen. For now we have technology in football just for aiding referees. But in the future AI can decrease the error probability to even 0. If we come back to the main topic I hope that the semi-automated offside technology can really decrease the number of errors much more.  Roll Eyes
The introduction of so many technologies in the game of football to ease the job of the referees and as well reduce the obvious errors in the game of football is without doubt a very good development. However, I think it's affected the excitement of the game because before their introduction, football was more dramatic and was filled with so many controversial moments. If they continue to introduce more technological measures in the game, we'll get to a point whereby the referees will not have much power to make vital decisions during games. The technological innovations are truly helpful but it's killing the fun of the game of football

This is the Premier League, and I'm not surprised that Luton Town defeated Bournemouth. In today's game with Manchester City, Luton Town is no threat to Manchester City, and even if Manchester City use their second eleven, they will still beat Luton Town in the Premier League. Luton Town cannot match Manchester City shoulder-to-shoulder at Etihad Stadium.

Today's Premier League matches are very easy to predict and today's matches are a great opportunity for good teams to collect some easy points and a great opportunity for gamblers to win some sure bets. Because in today's match no team will fight with its equally strong team. Every match is pitted against good and bad teams. and there is not much joy in watching such matches. Because these matches can be predicted in advance which team will win and most of these predictions come true. Today winning team list from my prediction is Newcastle, Brentford, Brighton, Man City, Wolves, Man United, Liverpool, West Ham, Arsenal
Talking about easy predictions in today's English Premier League games, I don't think the current result in the first match of the day between Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur was what many had predicted before now. The home team are currently tearing Ange Postecoglou's men apart inside the first half of the game. It started with Aleksander Isak's strike in the 30th minute of the game which finished a beautiful counter attack before Anthony Gordon doubled the lead two minutes later.
If they should lose the game, it'll surely be a big blow to Tottenham Hotspur's quest to finish the season in the top four of the league table. The first half is almost finished and the home team has been in total control of the game
714  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: April 13, 2024, 12:04:41 PM
This season has been an easy season for Al Hilal. The reason is, currently Al Hilal does not have a comparable competing team in the Saudi Arabian League. As a result, currently Al Hilal is successful in almost all Saudi Arabian League competitions. The reason is that until now Al Hilal has not been defeated by any team in the Saudi Arabian domestic league. This is really surprising for me personally. Because actually my personal expectation at the start of the season was that Al Nasr would be the strongest team in the Saudi Arabian League. However, in reality, Al Hilal is currently the strongest in the Saudi Arabian League. Even though star player Al Hilal (Neymar) was injured, Al Hilal still performed impressively. So I can't imagine what Al Hilal's performance would be like if Neymar wasn't injured. Certainly the performance will be much better than now.

So, if for example Neymar can return to playing next season, I'm sure Al Hilal will perform even more extraordinary and of course it will make it even more difficult for other teams in the Saudi Arabian League. Perhaps the only way to keep up with Al Hilal next season, the Saudi Arabian League teams must improve their performance. Because if the performance of other teams in the Saudi Arabian League is not improved, the Saudi Arabian League will definitely become very boring. Just a big example, this season the Saudi Arabian League is a little less exciting. Because currently you could say there is no longer any meaningful competition in the Saudi Arabian League, both in the domestic league and other competitions. The reason is, it is very likely that Al Hilal will definitely be the champion.
Like you rightly said, Al Hilal have easily been the best team in Saudi Arabia since the start of the season and I don't even think they're going to allow any other team to stop them from dominating the league and other domestic competition in the country come next season. Currently, they're yet to suffer any defeat in the Saudi Pro League and are very likely to finish the league without conceding a defeat. Considering the quality of players that was recently signed to some of the clubs in the league, I was expecting Al Nassr to dominate the league but unfortunately for them, they've been the second best team in the land because of Al Hilal's consistency. Neymar Jr who was signed to the club from Paris Saint Germaine in the summer is without doubt their most expensive player but due to an injury that's sidelined him for most part of the season, the Brazilian player hasn't been able to have much effect on the team. Hopefully, he'll be very fit to play for the team by next season but my concern for him at the moment is he'll be able to be at his best once again

~Snip

By the way, the final match has been over. Al Hilal won the match with a very convincing score. As expected they won it easily, they scored 4 goals. Although we didn't see Aleksandar Mitrovic on the lineup, Al Hilal still could play as usual. Al Hilal deserved to win the trophy, they succeed to win the first trophy this season.



Check the details on Google



Al-hilal's struggle was not in vain, he really got the results of his hard work so far, but of course the match in the semifinals against Luis Castro's troops was an impressive match for me where Al-nassr and Al-hilal competed with great enthusiasm and very fierce competition because both the team is the strongest currently in the SPL. However, Al-hilal managed to beat Al-nassr with a narrow score of 1-2, of course, making Al-hilal appear full of confidence in the final match against Ittihad.

Yes, it seems we deserve to congratulate Jorge Jesus because he has successfully defeated Ittihad, who were last season's champions in the SPL. and yes, even without Mitrovic, Al-hilal was able to show its best performance and of course Ittihad now has to accept defeat and failed to win the Saudi Super Cup and of course Al-hilal and Al-hilal fans are definitely happy.

The result of Al-hilal's final match against Ittihad with a score of 1-4 is certainly a fantastic score and illustrates that Al-hilal's strength is far superior to Ittihad. Yes, Al-hilal really deserves to win the Saudi Super Cup title and it looks like in the SPL Al-hilal also has the potential to win the trophy. It looks like Mitrovic, according to the news, will potentially not play until the end of the season, but hopefully Mitrovic will recover quickly from his injury so he can return to playing and defending Al-Hilal.

Before the final of the Saudi Super Cup game was scheduled, I already knew that any team that won in the semi final game between Al Hilal and Al Nassr will win the final of the competition. Al Ittihad haven't been impressive with their performances this season and facing an Al Hilal team that's yet to lose a league game this season in the Saudi Pro League, I knew it'll be an easy win for Al Hilal.
Aleksander Mitrovic have been a very important member of the Al Hilal's team this season as he's scored more goals than any other player for the club which is why his absence is going to affect the club but that I don't think will stop Al Hilal from winning the Saudi Pro League title at the end of the season. Aleksander Mitrovic is challenging Cristiano Ronaldo for the golden boot award but will have to come back from his injury to continue the battle against the Portuguese superstar who have already scored seven more goals than Mitrovic

PSG was my favorite in that match, but I was surprised that Barcelona beat PSG on their home soil. Barcelona is already halfway to reaching this season's UEFA Champions League semi-final because it will be difficult for PSG to beat Barcelona at Camp Nou. For Barcelona to score three goals at PSG's home, Barcelona will still outscore PSG at Camp Nou when PSG visit them.
In my opinion, in the first leg both teams played an extraordinary and quite good game, both teams were equally persistent in stealing goals at the start of the match. Maybe it will be a little tough in the second leg, at least there is always a chance, but it is very unlikely because Barcelona will not waste the opportunity to appear at home. For what they have achieved in the first leg

I thought so too, and when the score was tied at 2-2 of course I thought a draw would happen. But yes, who would have thought that in the end Barcelona would succeed in beating PSG at the Parc des Princes and indeed,it would certainly be a difficult target for PSG to be able to turn things around in the second leg later. Because of course, Barcelona will also maximize the aggregate wins they already have and in this way, it looks like this season Barcelona will succeed in going further to the semifinal match. Even though it still doesn't guarantee getting a trophy, at least Barcelona managed to go further when the team lost chances in the domestic league.
It seems I'm one of the few persons who thought that Paris Saint Germaine would beat Barcelona with a two or more goal margin in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter final tie. Playing at the Parc des Princes, I was of the opinion that home team will run riot against the Catalan club but little did I know that Barcelona would even be the club that'll be forcing a win in the game. Paris Saint Germaine in my own opinion failed to live up to the expectations of their fans in that game but still have a chance to qualify but that's if the CA beat Barcelona at Camp Nou in tge second leg of the tie.
Barcelona as we all know is a team that rarely lose knockout stage games in the UEFA Champions League competition and would definitely be putting in their best in the second leg of the game to make sure they progress to the semi finals. Paris Saint Germaine have the quality of players to actually stop Barcelona but doing that at Camp Nou will be very difficult for them if you ask me

But is Osimhen so good now that PSG are interested in him? Only 12 goals in 31 matches, you must agree that this is too little, and by the way, there is already news that Osimhen did not reach an agreement with PSG, I suspect that his agent asked for too high a transfer price. Perhaps Napoli should have sold him in the summer, when his achievements were much better, then a higher price could be talked about, but now everything has changed.

You can't judge the performance of Victor Osimhen with this current season because he has suffered from multiple injuries and also missed some games because of the African Nations Cup. Currently, he has scored 14 goals and 4 assists in 26 games and I don't think it is a bad performance. Remember that the performance of the entire club was reduced to a large extent. If not for his exceptional quality, he wouldn't have scored these goals because the entire team is going through serious problems. Consider the performance of other players such as Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and it will be clear that the players are struggling. If Victor is surrounded by good players and the right coach, he will perform better. There have been no formal announcements concerning his move to PSG but some news outlets reported that the transfer discussion is progressing. 
Earlier today, I read a news article that suggested that Napoli and Nigeria striker Victor Osimhen will be joining Paris Saint Germaine in the summer as Chelsea have lost our of the deal to sign him but that the transfer isn't confirmed yet as Paris Saint Germaine and Napoli are in advanced talks to finalize the deal. Victor Osimhen this season haven't been as prolific as he was last season because of injury setbacks and the fact that Napoli haven't been as consistent as they were last season but that I don't think takes anything away from the fact that the Nigeria international is a great striker that possesses every needed quality to succeed in any league in the world.
If the deal is finalized, I think Victor Osimhen will make a good signing for Paris Saint Germaine especially now that Kylian Mbappe will be leaving the club at the end of the season. Osimhen if surrounded with good midfielders that can always provide him with good passes, will score many goals if he joins Paris Saint Germaine

Barcelona's opportunities for winning La Liga still open yet, if can make reduce 5 points remaining by defeating Real Madrid on game week 32 and wish on 6 matches left Madrid loss their points. All possibility is open with Madrid or Barcelona will be the La Liga winner candidate in this season although Madrid has large percentage become the winner.

Like I already mentioned I don't think Barcelona has any chance of wining the Spanish La Liga considering the points margin they have with real Madrid, so no matter how hard they try I don't think it will be possible for them to achieve it because when we talk about the possibility of Barcelona wining the Spanish La Liga we should also consider their rival and in this case real Madrid is there rival and we know how consistent real Madrid has been, especially on this Spanish la Liga, however the most difficult part for Barcelona to achieve their goal is that real Madrid has gone to the point were their remaining matches for the Spanish la Liga will not be that difficult for them because there performance is better than those clubs.

However real Madrid interest is no longer on this Spanish la Liga because they are already certain that this league trophy is theirs, so there interest now is the champions League but there faith of going to the next round of the champions League is dependent on their next match against Manchester City.
Barcelona without doubt have had a good season in the league despite the constant injury cases some of their best players suffered this season but I don't think there's any way they're going to win the Spanish La Liga title at the end of the season. Real Madrid without doubt have been the best Spanish team this season and are currently leading the Spanish La Liga standings with an 8-point gap after 30 games. Carlo Ancelotti's men I don't think would ever want to lose the league title after their impressive performances and results.
Barcelona can still win a major trophy this season if they really work hard for one and that'll be the UEFA Champions League title which I know will be very difficult for them but is still very much possible. Considering the great potentials of the young players in the the squad of Barcelona, there's hope for the future of the club but that's if the club management can get a good manager that'll continue to breed them after Xavi Hernandez leaves the club at the end of the season.

Out of the four games that were played yesterday in the UEFA Conference League last night, there were three wins while the other one ended in a goalless draw and none of the three wins had more than one goal difference which means that there's a lot to play for in the second leg of the games.
But my major interest is the tie between English Premier League club Aston Villa and French Ligue 1 club Lille. Aston Villa won the first leg with a 2:1 scoreline and would have to travel to France for the second of the tie. Lille will have the advantage of playing the second leg in front of their home fans which I think will make them put in their best to try get a result that'll better the result of the one West Ham got against in the first leg.
720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the #1 rule you live by in sports betting? on: April 12, 2024, 03:44:27 PM
We read you!

My number rule is to not bet all my money on one single bet. And my number two rule is to know at least something about the team I am betting on. Other than that I am very open towards sports betting and think that it's fine to take some risk. The lower the chance of winning a bet the smaller will be bet. I try to keep my risk adjusted balances constant, so I will bet more on the favorite with a small payoff. As long as I still have a decent sized bankroll left, even when a few bets turn bad I am fine. For me the worst thing is to go broke because then there is no more opportunity to recover.
Different people have different rules they prioritize whenever they're engaging in betting and as far as these rules helps to keep them in check in the game of betting, it's absolutely okay. I'm responding to your own #1 rule because it's very similar to mine. I have different amount I use for betting in  different days because the amount I use daily to gamble is determined by how much I make from my other life engagements. For instance, if I make a huge gain from my other hustles, I bring out a good amount of money to gamble of which on that particular day of which I don't exceed that particular amount I've already projected for gambling on that particular day. It's helped me to control my gambling engagements and not to become a gambling addict
