Frankly, I was quite surprised with how this match went because I thought that Uruguay would get an easy win in this match but, what happened was that Canada played quite impressively and they were able to provide fierce resistance to Uruguay. Canada could have won this match if only they could have played calmly toward the end of the match, unfortunately, they looked very nervous when facing pressure from Uruguay, and that actually created an opening for Uruguay to get their goal. Previously, many expected Uruguay to qualify for the final rather than Colombia. If this scenario happened, Argentina would very easily beat Uruguay. Canada really made a surprise, they managed to get two goals back after trailing 1-0 in the 8th minute, but Luis Suarez ended Canada dream with a goal he scored just before the end of the game. This goal opened up opportunities for Uruguay, as well as providing a bonus for the spectators, the match had to continue until the penalty shootout and Uruguay managed to secure third place. Canada looked a little nervous towards the end of the match, if they had played a little calmer by staying focused in their defensive area or changing the game to a defensive one, maybe they would have secured the victory they had achieved. Canada surprised us with their play but same time showed inexperience at the end of the 90 minutes. They should have slowed the game down when they had possession to secure the victory. It was heartbreaking for Canada as Uruguay took 3rd place at Copa America 2024 by winning in penalty kicks. Penalty kicks decide the winner after 90 minutes of regular time and 30 minutes of extra time. I wasn't fully convinced Uruguay would win. In my opinion, they simply had the better team but were outplayed by Canada. Canada deserved this victory more than anyone. However, Canada should be proud of finishing fourth. They brought a nation together, and the future looks good for Canadian soccer. |

Was looking at the bounties section. Are those tokens worth promoting? Will they really be worth something? Why does it take so long before participants are rewarded? Have you made anything from bounties?
I made a lot of money from it in the past. Those golden days are gone. If you get involved now, it's impossible to make a good amount. Investors used to easily multiply their investments. I'm not telling a fairy-tale, it happened a lot in the past. It's very true few years back many people made decent profits from doing bounties. Those days are gone, so be careful and take precautions before joining a bounty program. |

Spain's championship odds are low on betting sites, so they are favorites.
I also saw that most people were betting that Spain would win the match. If England pull off a surprise and win the match, it will be a sad situation for many.
My favorite is Spain, but the effect of the final matches is very different, please bet enough to not upset yourself.
Spain are favorites to win Euro 2024. But every game has its momentum and surprises. Who knows, England might go and win it as underdogs! Spain has shown great performance and skill, but England has improved with each match. The final is set, and the champion will be the team that performs better. England is lucky to be in the final based on their tournament so far, so what if luck keep favoring them. |

^ Such series are meant to groom young talent (including Gill captaining the team) and serve as testing ground for selectors to pick players for where it matters (i.e, WCs), this same team unlikely to be sent against big teams obviously.
There are a lot of young players on the Indian team, including captain Shubman. No doubt, this series aims to give them more international exposure and experience, helping them grow in maturity. But is it too early to give such responsibility to a player like Shubman? Regardless the current stage, the team needs to firmly believe they can beat any team in the world. Their mentality should be strong; otherwise, they might face more embarrassing moments. |

After many years of experience, I realized that losses are part of the proccess trading. Losses happen to the best traders. The best traders I know do not have a 100% win rate.
When I take a loss, I sit down in order to:
a) review the trade
b) learn from my loss
What do you do when you take a loss?
Everyone has their own theories, but they should see how others do it. I'd love to learn from others. Trading isn't just about making gains; it's also about minimizing your losses. I lose about 50% of my trades, but my stop losses keep those losses small. So, managing risk is a big part of trading, and I'll never stop encouraging others to use stop losses. |

Surely BRICS can overtake US economy. It's just a matter of time. Why do you think US is constantly threatening China? Because China is the closest competitor of US in terms of the economy. As per the IMF date, the nominal GDP of US is 28 trillion and for China, it is 18 trillion. No other countries have reached double digital in GDP.
Also recently the petro dollar agreement with the OPEC nations has expired. Saudi said that they are not going to renew the agreement. So a lot of changes are happening at the global front. No one knows what the future holds for the future.
China could overtake the US as the leading superpower if it continues to grow at an unprecedented rate. It's already the second-largest economy in the world. That's why I believe both China and Russia will be the leading forces of the "New World Order". The US will continue to weaken itself with rising national debt and constant money spending in external wars. And there's nothing the FED will be able to do about it. American decline will happen whenever we like or not. Things don't last forever. I understand the current situation with oil-producing countries, but that doesn't mean it's the end of the world. Especially when oil is still in high demand these days. As long as gasoline-powered vehicles exist, don't except the oil industry to go anywhere soon. Even lithium-ion batteries have been unable to replace oil as the alternative fuel source. Russia has survived the sanctions because it's been selling oil to its allies (mainly China, and India). The US depends heavily on oil-producing countries to survive (mainly Saudi Arabia). If these countries stop exporting Oil to the US, America will be doomed. Who knows what will happen in the future?  I agree with you that nothing lasts forever and American dominance is no exception. They have ruled the world for over 100 years and based on the same world history as the empires before them, it is time for them to cede the world to a new power. But I think this could be delayed longer than we think because so far they've tried to slow down the growth of their competitors quite successfully. Russia is still immersed in war and has not been able to escape to recover, while China's economy has also been facing many difficulties recently. The BRICS bloc is still increasingly asserting its strength, but it is clear that they need to make more efforts in de-dollarization. I think it will take some time before we see more pronounced de-dollarization. It's clear that countries are stepping up their efforts to move away from the dominance of the dollar. Despite facing many challenges, we have seen increased efforts in de-dollarization. The positive sign is that this trend continues, and we might see more countries adopting other alternatives. As you mentioned, the BRICS bloc is becoming more influential, and analysts believe it might grow even stronger in the coming days. This shift could be profitable for these countries but bad news for the US. But will the US just let this happen so easily? |

Australia and India were very likely to qualify for the semi-finals but Afghanistan's performance in the last match was truly surprising. Afghanistan may have taken the tough revenge of the World Cup. In the ODI World Cup we saw Afghanistan lose a match they were sure to win due to Maxwell's brilliant performance but that did not repeat itself in the T20 World Cup. Afghanistan managed to restrict Australia to less than 150 runs and eventually bowled out Australia to earn full points against Australia. Now if Afghanistan somehow wins the match against Bangladesh then Afghanistan will qualify for the semi-final without any equation but if Bangladesh can win the last match by a big margin then Australia, Bangladesh and Afghanistan will have a chance to qualify for the semi-final.
Maxwell had his moment, but Afghanistan's performance couldn't be denied this time. Afghanistan beat Australia for the first time in their history, which ending Australia's record streak of consecutive wins in T20 World Cups! Fielding and quick runs between the wickets made all the difference. I have to say a stellar performance by the Afghans. This win not only created problems for Australia but also opened up the qualification race. If India defeats Australia and Afghanistan defeats Bangladesh, means Afghan will qualify. But Afghanistan still needs to beat Bangladesh to simplify things. From my perspective Afghanistan are the favorites this time. |

There seem to be a lot of goals in the tournament so far. I'm rooting for Germany and Portugal to make it to the final. The key to success for these teams is their strong teamwork, which they've demonstrated in the past.
Yeah I noticed that too, usually in matches like this there are fewer goals around 2 goals but this time it was quite different at least 3 goals in each match. Maybe because it's early in the tournament so they're still facing easy opponents and lots of goals but when they enter the middle of the tournament, each match will be more difficult and tighter. By the way, I have not favored any team to win this tournament but I can predict several teams will reach the semi-finals. I also agree with you, maybe this is the first half, but if you look at the 3 goals, it is still very ideal in a football match, especially in a big competition which is held every 4 years, especially what happened between Spain vs Croatia. I bet on under but in fact it was over 2.5, this was really unexpected considering that their matches rarely resulted in goals. Maybe it's true because the first leg is still fresh so there are lots of surprises. Euro just started and there have already been 12 goals in last three matches. That's the excitement of the Euros! However, the game between the game Spain vs. Croatia match was unexpected. I thought Croatia was a strong team, but they were out of the game by halftime. Croatia had most of the ball, but Spain took their chances and Croatia didn't. That's how the game goes. Croatia has been strong for years, but it looks like their time might be over, unlike Spain! A lot of surprises might be ahead. |

Ireland's squad is by no means weaker than USA's but the particular issue is that US's pitch is mainly spinner-friendly, so no good team can score good runs on these pitches in this World Cup. Although USA has done well in every match so far it is only natural that they will play well in their own venue. So in today's match I am giving both teams a fifty-fifty chance. If Island can perform well with their best then they can win the match and if they win the match it will basically give a lot of advantage to Pakistan. However, to qualify for the Super Eight from the USA group stage, there is no option to win today's match, that is, a win is a must, otherwise the chances of Pakistan qualifying in NRR's calculation will increase a lot.
All of Pakistan is supporting Ireland tonight because their win boosts Pakistan's chances of making it to the Super 8s. However, the crucial USA vs. Ireland match hasn't started yet due to a wet outfield. There's a strong chance the game might be canceled. If it's a washout, USA goes through and Pakistan is out. The Pakistan team still has a chance, but the outfield is in bad condition. The match is already delayed and might be abandoned. |

In the first overs of Pakistan's batting on that the Pakistan team played very well, in short, you can say they played amazingly in the powerplay. They played with a huge run rate in the powerplay as they made 50 in just 5 overs and also inside this score, there are too many boundaries involved.
That 50 contains too many boundaries from Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan. Those early runs didn’t give a feel to the Pakistan team that they didn’t make good score in the end when the wickets were going down quickly after the initial opening partnership. In this match, the Pakistan team middle order collapsed badly and that was the real cause of their loss.
Once again, it’s clear that Pakistan relies too much on Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan. Despite a solid start, the middle order failed to capitalize. The batting was terrible, with wickets gifted to ordinary deliveries. A score of 157 is not competitive on a pitch where 200+ is expected. England easily chased the target it under 16 overs. Congratulations to Pakistan on another series defeat. You've maintained your record. |

There's been an increasing number of concerns and reports about withdraws not going through on freebitcoin at the moment. I have requested TheQuin to give me an update or to post one publicly and until that happens I'm afraid I have to put this campaign on HOLD and would like to ask you all to remove your signatures and avatars for the time being. I am aware that a week has already begun and I will take care of you all regardless of the outcome. Noted. I'll also remove my signatures and avatars as recommended.

Once again another match has been finished due to rain and this match also finished without playing any ball. However the England weather is always rainy and there is rain for a full year. Now, only just a match is left in which Pakistan must have to win that match to draw the series otherwise congratulations to England in this series they played one and win the one. But at this time, we cannot say series, we can say only a match. Maybe, also the last match won’t happen but hope tht at least we can see the match in proper without any rain disturbance. Rain wrecks third T20I between England and Pakistan It's frustrating for fans because the rain has spoiled all the excitement. The third T20I between England and Pakistan has been washed out as well like first T20I. The rainy weather in England has played a big role so far, with two matches abandoned. Rain 2-1 England; the weather is leading the way. England has won morally, but the series decider is yet to be played tomorrow. but can we call it a great series, well worth it? Not really. |

In the Atalanta - B.Leverkusen game B.Leverkusen was the favorite but they couldn't do anything against the Italians.
I think this game will be like that.
We cannot equate Atalanta strategy and results with Fiorentina. Atalanta succeeded in implementing a man-to-man marking strategy when facing Leverkusen in the UEL final. In fact, Atalanta has a mirror formation with Leverkusen. Something like this requires a genius coach to be successful implemented, and Gasperini successfully analyzed Alonso strategy and broke Leverkusen winning record with this strategy. Can Fiorentina be like that? I'm not sure. in this match, I think the chance of winning belongs to Olympiacos. Fiorentina may have the motivation to win, but they need to learn how to stop Olympiacos attacks effectively if they want to get results as Atalanta. Not all coaches and teams can execute their plans perfectly. Strategy alone isn't enough; luck also plays a part. Just because Atalanta succeeded doesn't mean Fiorentina will do the same tonight. However, Fiorentina is motivated as they aim to finish the season unbeaten with a win tonight. But I'll be supporting Olympiacos because they play beautiful football and have the home advantage. but i'd predict that the Florence-based team will come out victorious. Quite a contradictory feeling, as I'm experiencing some confusion. If Fiorentina loses, it will be their second consecutive Conference League final loss. |

Klopp has always helped Liverpool to remain very competitive in the Premier League since joining the club and this is most difficult job to be achieved. As you mentioned above, the slot's pressure is rather high consideirng that klopp was always giving the best for liverpool. The supporters have high expectations for him this season and im sure they will be booing him once slot is just gonna be another flop. I'm just curious what adjustments he's going to make for the squad considering that if he will not be using the same line up like klopp did.
I'm still waiting for the slot's transfer plan. I believe that we will see several names join Liverpool during the summer transfer season. This club may experience some changes under his leadership.
Fans are holding out a lot of hope.
Klopp couldn't stay forever, so it's okay. Liverpool did great by appointing Klopp in the past, so I trust they know what they're doing now. Sometimes a new style is needed, which is why they struggled in the last few seasons. I think the new coach, Arne Slot, will be great. however It's always pressure for a manager to join a club like Liverpool in the Premier League, but he'll be fine if the fans and club support him. Nobody knows for sure how things will go for him, but we need to be patient. It will take him a season or two to get the team playing his way and to impose his style. Changes are necessary, so hopefully, he'll get the money to rebuild with the players he wants. At the same time, he needs to prepare to work with a lean budget and rely on the academy. That's the only way he'll succeed. |

Canada vs Nepal
Nepal team has been in bad form for a long time. I thought Nepal would do well in today's match against Canada. But the team could not play well against Canada. Team Canada batted first and scored a massive total of 187. I don't think Nepal will win by batting at such a big target.
Nepal has got momentum few months ago and at that time they were giving tough time to any strong opponent but now it's look like they lose thier grip and now continuously losing critical matches against weak opponent and yesterday they have same story by facing weak or fair opponent and lose against them by huge margin of 60+ runs , I know they are cricketing rich nation and they way fans showed Thier craze and love it's difficult to accept such bad performance from his beloved team and player but it's reality currently they facing one of the worst form with a major mistake from thier mian players. As currently from score board thier middle order collapse cause the main reason of thier defeat. I was not expecting that kind of match. I was expecting, Nepal team will handle the pressure and they will win this match . But in last match ,the Canadian team moral was very high and they gave an excellent target of 184 runs and then they defend very well and in the end, they won the match by 63 runs. Nepal seven batsmans can't enter in double figures and the highest run maker was Malla who made 37 runs in 30 balls and the bowling performance of Nepal team was also poor. In the other hand , Canadian team batters played well , especially Kirton who made 50 for his country and R. Singh also played good in the death overs and he made 41 runs in 17 balls. Canada registered an easy win following their T20 World Cup warm-up match against Nepal. Canada played superbly, while Nepal flopped as usual. It was a completely one-sided match, which I didn't expect like others. The game lacked competitive performance, and it seems certain that Nepal will struggle in its main matches. Despite having a deep batting line-up, none of the batsmen showed confidence. It's rare to see Nepali batters face the last ball of the last over, including in this match. The Nepal team still isn't mature enough for international play and seems to be learning. |

Yes, it's a crazy time to invest. Bitcoin dominance is falling, and we might see some activity with altcoins soon. There are many altcoins with a perfect track record and reputation that are relatively cheap to grab. I'm not recommending you to buy, but those who take advantage early will ultimately be the winners. Experts already claim that alt markets will explode in the coming weeks or months.

Dortmund is highly motivated and for this reason it will be difficult for Real Madrid to impose themselves immediately but that's what they will do by trying to score as many goals as possible considering the fact that Ancelotti will focus everything on the attack and will deploy the best midfield of the last 10 years in the history of the cup with Tony Kross in his prime in his last match where he will want to bring home the cup but watch out for Marco Reus also in his last match, it will be a good match there is no doubt about this it is normal that the odds are all in favor of the real
The reality of the performance of the two teams that entered the Champions League final is indeed very different, but when we refer to the final match. Of course, there are many other possibilities that could happen because both teams will give the best to each of their players, which their respective coaches may never have implemented in domestic matches. So I also think that their match will be quite fierce because each line from both teams is not bad now, although we will all see who is the best in the final match later. So, you're saying both teams have a 50/50 chance of winning the match. That's not wrong because until one scores, it's not obvious that Madrid will win. Dortmund isn't at Madrid's level, but Madrid should never underestimate them. However, we know that Madrid never disappoints, especially in finals. Atalanta surprised many people last week, but I don't see the same happening here at Champions League. Will Dortmund end the monopoly? I dare to say yes because experience matters most at this high stage, and Madrid has that all the way. |

The Saudi Arabian league competition this season has finished and Al Hillal managed to maintain their unbeaten record by winning the SPL championship trophy in the 2023/2024 season, Al Hillal who appeared without the most expensive player this season actually surprised us by being able to perform quite consistently and even they deserve to be said as the Saudi Arabian version of Leverkusen this season, actually Al Hillal has locked the championship title long before the season ended and even they won the 19th trophy they this season with Neymar who actually have no contribution at all, now we can say if Al Hillal really dominates even they are able to excel over a team full of European stars such as Al Nassr and also Al Ahli this season.
Saudi Pro League season 2023/24 have been over and Al Hilal winning the domestic league tittle with unbeaten record after winning 31 of 34 games and had 3 games being draw. Make many transfer since the early season make Al Hilal has confidence performance for winning domestic league this season indeed their favorite player Neymar had injury almost one season. I don't think Al Hilal winning this season with invisible record because had loss in AFC Champion League semifinal and failed for winning the most higher level competition in Asian, its bad record for Al Hilal and seems difference if success winning AFC Champion League. Left one match at the weekend Al Hilal vs Al Nassr on Saudi King's Cup, interested to see who will be the winner for this competition and Cristiano Ronaldo ambition will win trophy for this season or Al Hilal completed their achievement by winning this trophy. It's better to call them local champions, nah! Al-Hilal dominated the Saudi Pro League season but failed to get past the AFC Champions League semifinal. I'm frustrated that Al-Hilal was knocked out by a team from the United Arab Emirates. While they steamrolled through the Saudi League, they had a poor record in the AFC Champions League. Fans are disappointed following the loss of the Saudi giants, Al Hilal. The Saudi King's Cup is set to start on Friday, May 31st. Al Hilal and Al Nassr will now compete for the King's Cup trophy. Ronaldo has sent Al-Nassr to the final, and it's his last chance to end the season with a trophy. Honestly, their battles are always a treat to watch. |
