Former World Cup winning team Argentina beat Ecuador 1-0 thanks to another great goal from Lionel Messi. Lionel Messi made a great free kick from the front of the box in the 78th minute of the game. The free kick scored by Lionel Messi was amazing to watch. His free kick looked like the kind of free kick only Lionel Messi can do. When the Ecuadorian goalkeeper took this great free kick, he might as well have been enjoying Lionel Messi's free kick because he had nothing to do but enjoy the free kick. For Argentina, the match against Ecuador was the first match of the World Cup qualifiers in which Argentina earned full points, in this match Argentina secured the top position of the points table with one match to play.

South Africa missed the opportunity to secure first win as it was looking easy win for SA once time. SA were so closed to win thais match because all top orders batsmens doesn't batted well. SA bowlers failed to pickup 3 more wickets. at start it wa not easy win but Marnus Labuschagne and agar partnership totally frustrated SA team. In the next matches it will not easy to restrict Aus , their top order will enter in the ground to score big.

Now Australia has regain the no 1 rank after winning the match and now standing with the 119 rating. Pakistan is standing no 2 with same rating. If Pakistan win against the India then Australia will down to No.2 rank otherwise Aus will retain it's position.

South Africa team had failed completely. Other than Bavuma the top scorer is Jansen scoring 32 runs. Somehow South Africa have reached 200 runs, and I expect Ngidi to give support as Bavuma have come close to century. Already South Africa have lost the T20 series badly and now once again the ODI series going to be a big struggle for the South Africa team. With the best batting order Australia can easily win the match,

Manchester United have zero chaces of winning the EPL imo, at least not with the group of players they have, they lack that winning mentality and they don't even have the quality to be champions. Manchester United basically have to try and finish in the top four, i think that's the best they can achieve in the EPL this season, they could also try and defend their Carabao cup trophy.

@GbitG at this stage more than the money he needs to rediscover his old form because if he continues to falter then no European club will want him and his only option will be the Saudi clubs. Furthermore I have never really understood how he flopped at Chelsea because he has so much potential hence I was very happy to see him sign for Barcelona and hopefully Xavi can help him unlock his old potential once more.

Manchester united has not yet released a statement regarding his problem.

It seems like that there will be a chance for him to be frozen by manchester united. Will anthony have the same fate as greenwood? There may be a lot of protests will be coming toward him like greenwood. Anthony needs to prepare himself if the bad scenario will happen to him.

Being removed from braziliian national team is a bad thing that may also affect his career as well.

In the beginning, the wickets of the Bangladesh batsmen fell quite quickly.After their four wickets fell, they had stabilized the score, but when S.Al hasan and M. Rahim lost their wickets, their wickets began to fall rapidly again.In fact, Pakistan bowlers bowled very tough especially H. Rauf, he  took four  wickets in 6 overs of Bangladesh and scored 19 runs.The fast bowlers of Pakistan were successful against the Bangladesh batsman because the Bangladeshi bastmen could not handle their high  speed  bowling and kept losing their wickets.

It was a tricky situation. Ideally Mujeeb Ur Rahman should have taken a single and then give strike to Rashid Khan. But he was thinking that he need to hit 4 runs from 1 ball, and therefore went for a boundary. If he had knowledge of the equations, then he would have rotated the strike without any doubt. After the match, Afghan coach was blaming the match officials. But then, I don't think that it is the duty of the match officials to inform the players about the different scenarios. Those things the players need to do among themselves.

The 4th T20 match at Nottingham, was won by New Zealand. They chased the target of 175 runs in 17.2 overs. Three of the New Zealand batsmen including Tim Seifert , Glenn Phillips and Mark Chapman  scored 40+ runs but none of them was able to reach the half century. With this win the T20 series between the two team is drawn. The first two matches were won by England and it seems that England will easily win the series but all the credit goes to the new Zealand team, who fought back and won the last two matches and leveling the series.

Next we will see the ODI matches between the two teams that will begin from 8 September. Both teams will play four ODIs between them and I am siure it will be an exciting series to watch.

Trading is a long time journey but many few people can travel until reaching final destination which is making profits consistently. 90% of the traders lose mostly because emotions take control of them and they start to unfollow their plan and overtrade.

The Sri Lankan team scored enough runs to set a big target for Afghanistan. The Sri Lankan team scored 291 runs with all the batsmen performing well and defending the wicket till the end. But the Afghanistan team fell by one wicket almost at the start as Gurbaz entered the field as the opening batsman but did not perform well. Gurbaz also performed so poorly against Bangladesh that Afghanistan's batsmen are much weaker than the Sri Lankan team. If the Afghanistan team should defend the wicket and stay on the field till the end, then it will be possible to enjoy a good game, and the competition will be full.

The fact that United, Newcastle and Chelsea all started terribly is a bad sign for them. The transfer window is closed as well which means that they can't just get a big name transfer, maybe a free agent is allowed but still, they are not getting anyone that can fix the situation. These teams spend os much money on transfers, how come they are doing this terribly? I mean its obvious that the transfers they made weren't as good and the players they had already aren't great neither. But the main question was, how could they spend this much and still not get anyone decent? That doesn't really seem like it would make sense, I would have expected them to do a lot better on transfers.

It's true, after the departure of Neymar and Messi, only Mbappe can be expected on the front lines. Dembele still seems to need time to be on fire, his closeness with Mbappe can be put to good use by Luis Enrique. I think PSG challenge was over when management announced that Mbappe was back in the squad, sure enough Mbappe was like carrying the PSG squad alone.

The most serious thing for PSG now is how to go further in the UCL, joining group F is Hell. However, I predict that Enrique can overcome this challenge thanks to his experience and flying hours in UCL competitions.

It was almost becoming strange for them to lose game with Lionel Messi in their team. At least with this draw game, which is the first since Messi joined them, other teams in the competition will be a little more confident when they play against Inter Miami now, knowing that they can hold them to a draw and even win them. NASHVILLE SC played very well to have been able to stop and defend the attempts from Messi's side to score even with the good players asides Messi that they have like Robert Thomas Taylor, Josef Martínez, Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba etc.

Sergio Ramos is known for making records with his attitude and red cards. I could imagine being carded from Saudi Arabia altogether if he play there
As a free agent, he didn't receive an offer from Inter Miami, a Turkish team was looking for him too and offered €11m a year but he refused. He didn't care also about Al-Ittihad offer of €20m a year and preferred to join Sevilla which only can afford €1m which he accepted. Normally after medical visit he will be a Sevilla defender again after 18 years from his departure there.

In today game we have complete different Bangladesh side which lost against Sri Lanka first game because from start they were aggressive and confident which allow them to attack on quality spinners of Afghanistan and with this aggression things were completely in favor of Bangladesh because from start they have good strategy which allow them for having very good target which was achievable on this pitch but good captaincy and bowling on good line-length allow them to win this match and secure their spot into top four.

Afghanistan which recently lost three matches series against Pakistan in Sri Lanka were completely not in frame throughout this match which is surely miserable for them because now most chances they will be out of this event in next match against Sri Lanka, so they need to regroup and have better mindset for the next game like Bangladesh.

Another Saudi club Al-Ittihad are said to have made a proposal with a deal of two years contract and a break clause included in his contract, it is said that the Saudi sides are waiting for his final decision and are aware he's been approached by other clubs outside the Saudi league, Sergio Ramos is a good player though he's not as young and very vibrant as before but would bring experience to the team and I feel it he decides to move to the Saudi side then it would be a retirement plan for himself.

In today's match of South Africa vs Australia team South Africa came to bat first and scored 190 runs in 20 overs. The runs that South Africa team scored today are the right runs to win. It will be very difficult for Australia team to win beyond this run.  South Africa has scored so many runs in this match. If South Africa can perform well in the bowling line, then South Africa will win this match very easily.
