Morocco have shown good spirit and sportsmanship so far in the World Cup, even being one of the dugout teams they still proved they can compete against even the toughest of nations in the world cup and I'm very proud of them. This is how I expect every other African nation to play but it turns out only a few are able to give this level of performance and I won't be surprised that Morocco could still have more shocking results for the world in tbe world cup.
Interestingly Morocco will play the round 16 with their European neighbor Spain in a match I give equal chances to both country basically both country have similar style of play, if the Moroccans can go all the way to top their group which include a star-studded Belgium and Croatia then I knew they have a lot to offer in the competition and not mere pushover, honestly more upset is bound to be unleashed in many matches ahead just like the way Camerounian defeated Brazil in yestarday match, I must commend the African countries that participated in this World Cup for putting up a brilliant performance and representing the continent well.

We know that the market is dynamic,as in it changes constantly,and as such,an investor who isn't careful enough to know when he is investing will fall in to heart problems or emotional trauma as a result of a massive fall in value,that is why it is important to condition your mind in a way that you won't get heart failure when you are at the loosing end.
Every investor knows there is risk in the game,and taking the risk is what shows you are ready to eradicate poverty from your life.
I think it's normal for a newbie to have anxiety and fear when trading, l had such a terrible experience when I started trading though not as far as having heart problem but the heart beat was very fast worst of it was when I tried future trading for the first time,  however with time I was able to get over fear, emotions and anxiety while spot or cross margin trading and I also trade forex, I have a trading strategy and sticked to it once I place a trade I don't entertain any fear again because I am only trading with a small percentage of my total portfolio or account which I can afford to lose, I wouldn't embark on a trading that will cause a heart attack due to huge amount of money involved.

Unfortunately I don't have like-minded friends who are soccer enthusiast to share ideas or do analysis in predicting soccer scores, I personally do my analysis via different platforms before taking a final stance of picking my bet, how I wish I have people we could share views and idea together towards having a successful and consistency in winning bets, since the temporary pause in the European leagues I also took a break because World Cup matches are unpredictable to me with so many upsets that resulted to losses, once European leagues resume I will be back to soccer betting.

Spain vs Japan today match Japan scored 2 goals and Spain scored only 1 goal.  But here Spain's 7 points have become points to go to the second round and Japan's 6 points.  But they made it to the second round.  A lot of hard work in both teams managed to change their fortunes.  But I think they will be able to gain experience like Spain going to the final here.
There will be so many interesting match in the last 16. It makes me surprised that if japan can beat spain like what it was doing with german. German already known as house of football must be leaving from world cup. The fact that if 8 players from japan were still actively playing in the bundesliga which makes me think if that must be the main reason why japan is quite strong at this moment even it can beat spain. There will be so many matches that difficult to predict during last 16.


Tomiyasu also plays for Arsenal and Mitoma plays for Brighton & Hove Albion both in premier league respectively coupled with the other 8 players in  Bundesliga is strong enough and formidable to challenge any European country in any competition having well versed and experienced in European leagues is a big advantage, It's not an easy feat to lead a group that comprises of two heavy weight in football and champions Spain and Germany, in round 16 they will play Croatia Monday 5 December a match which I believe they will win considering their opponent who isn't strong enough I tipped Japan to far in the competition.

many chances for belgium to score in the second half but Lukaku couldn't capitalize on it properly, should have scored it would have helped qualify from group F but unfortunately it was a draw while morocco won against canada
In a football match every team must utilize their scoring chances else  Belgium were the main culprit particularly Lukaku since they he lost those scoring opportunities of scoring clearcut chances they got punished therefore out of the competition, it's a pity a star-studded Belgium didn't qualify for the next round in the competition this is indeed another major upset a team that came third in 2018 World Cup is out in the first round in 2022 World Cup, meanwhile congratulations to the Moroccans for a well deserved qualification having worked hard and prove their critics who didn't give them a chance of qualification before the start of the competition.

Interesting point table Group F.If Croatia and Morocco will win today then have no chance to qualify in next round for Belgium. Belgium must be win today match. If they will be point loss or share then they wouldn’t qualify next round.Belgium didn’t well play this world cup.Can Belgium qualify for super 16?what do you think?
We can't say that Belgium can't win the match against Croatia because they really want to qualify for the next round. But we admit that group F is a very tight competition group. This will be a match of life and death between Hazard and Modric.

Not only Belgium, Marocco is also very optimistic about being able to qualify by aiming for a win against Canada. If Morocco wins, then Belgium's dream of qualifying for the last 16 will be closed and forced to leave Qatar sooner.

Let's watch their match.
But the task is easier for Croatia and Morocco because they only need a draw in this match. Meanwhile, Belgium must get full points, and the team it faces cannot be said to be easy. If you say Belgium is aiming for a place in the last 16, then all three countries in this group will also be aiming for the same.
The game has just started, let's see if Belgium can turn things around by winning this match or Croatia who has the advantage will finish the match at least with a draw.
I saw Morocco scoring quick goals at the moment and taking the lead.

It is more likely that Morocco will advance to the next round. For Morocco to finish top of group F, they need to win. Trying as hard as possible is the best way for Morocco to avoid defeat. The chances of Morocco not advancing are high if Morocco loses and Belgium beats Croatia. Belgium is likely to advance to the next round of 16. While this match will have some epic moments, Croatia will qualify by getting the results required for qualification. However, I am quite confused.
Morocco is already leading by two goals against Canada which temporary pushed them to the top of the table with seven points while Croatia vs Belgium is still goalless if this match ended in a draw that means the highly rated Belgium is out of the World Cup with four points of course this is a must win match to secure atleast a runner-up position on the table, Croatian are not pushover too, as it stand Belgium and Croatia will fight for the second position because I believe the Moroccans had already  sealed and grap the first position, I can't see the Canadian rally back to get a draw or win.
1487  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If you were the government, how would you fight against bitcoin? on: December 01, 2022, 11:38:04 AM
I don't think there is a government that can stop bitcoin 100%, isn't it better for the country to take care of things that are more important than bitcoin itself if one country has economic and security problems,
I think it's a waste of time if one government only focuses on fighting the existence of bitcoin

because Bitcoin cannot be fought and stopped, more and more people are adopting it every day
Yeah, not country or a government is able to stop it. I'll try to follow the footsteps of Nayib Bukele, President of El Salvador. Surely it'll bring success to the country's economy in the long term. Also when we allow the people to benefit out of it, surely they'll pay the proper amount to the government. It is for the revenue the countries find possible ways to keep the users under control.
If I happen to be in the coridor of power in government I wouldn't stop or ban bitcoin rather I will formulate a policy that won't affect our local currency or monetary policy after adopting the use of bitcoin, of course some government officials are scare of the decentralized feature of bitcoin and how it will affect their banking operations or system if people are given a free will to use bitcoin for payment purposes especially for goods and services, how will government impose task in bitcoin transactions? how will bank staff retain their jobs? if people no longer use bank e.t.c if any government can proffer solutions to those problems I believe bitcoin can be adopted.
1488  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: December 01, 2022, 11:25:40 AM
Arsenal impressive performances have surpassed other championship candidates, Arteta needs to direct his players to always give their best performance to get them closer to the EPL trophy. Manchester City never get tired of chasing Arsenal, five points behind makes Manchester City always have to get a win to keep their chances.
The first half of the season belongs to Arsenal, Arsenal good performances have made them one of the teams capable of giving competition to Manchester City in the race for the title. Last season Liverpool failed to break Man City's dominance, Arsenal had to prove the quality of the players currently owned were able to make Man City fail to win the EPL trophy this season.
Behind 5 points from Arsenal, Manchester City must increase its focus on the Premier League after the World Cup break. I believe Manchester City can still reduce the gap on points with Arsenal by taking advantage of the match they will play, so I don't care how big the gap is now because they haven't lost anything in the league yet.

Arsenal will be under pressure even if they are 5 points ahead of Manchester City. Arsenal may maintain their good form, but it will not be easy because the tough matches and competition in the Premier League will always allow Arsenal to lose points. So far they've been good, but that can't be the same in the second half of the season.
If the rescheduled crucial match between Arsenal vs Man City is played and Arsenal wins then eight points will separate the two teams and absolutely a big a opportunity to consolidate their top position and place in a position to win the league, I don't think Newcastle will pose any threat to Arsenal title aspiration because of their consistency this season having defeated Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea and won 12 out of 14 matches with just a single loss and a draw implies a good season and good form compared to Arsenal of the previous seasons, they only needed to continue with their winning mentality week in week out.

Argentina leading 1 nil on the scoresheet with enough dominated possession in the second half. Leo Messi doing what he does best, driving the ball through his opponents and getting fouled easily by the players. There's still enough scoring time for the both sides, Poland still defending the game inother not to let it out to 2 goals. It's 65th minutes on the time and Messi wants to wrong his miss.

Now Poland is really not safe because Mexico also won which means Mexico and Poland get the same points
Will the total goals be able to determine who will qualify? currently Poland is still in 2nd place with the same points and total goals
Argentina and Mexico are both playing aggressively and there is the possibility of additional goals.
As it stand now Poland is second on the table I think a rule is favoring Poland ahead of Mexico despite having the same points and goal difference except Mexico one more goal against Saudi Arabia then the stand a chance of qualifying for the next round while Argentina vs Poland ended in the same 2 -0 in favor of Argentina the last 10 minutes will be tough and anything can happen, I am sure both country manager will pass messages across to the players to psych them up Meanwhile congratulations to Argentina for topping the group after some initial setback in their first match against Saudi Arabia.

We are still curious about where Ronaldo go after the world cup, many rumors he wants to go to USA and play where David Beckham has a club, Inter Miami. As we know, many old players who don't have rising again in Europa go and play in the USA because maybe the public USA still has fanatic fans which make come to the stadium. But, this is a still rumors, we have to wait how serious Beckham to recruit his best friend to Miami.
This is the latest possibility after Messi appears to be Inter Miami eyeing Ronaldo as it has been confirmed Messi will not go there.
On the other hand, according to The Sun, now Beckham has begun to approach and hold talks with representatives of Ronaldo and stated that Beckham received a positive response from this conversation.
But these are still only a handful of rumors out of the many rumors that exist about Ronaldo so that the possibility of seeing this we still have to wait until the world cup is over and player transfers are opened.
Will Ronaldo shun European league where he will be having the opportunity of playing champion league for at least one or two seasons to a lesser MLS or Saudi Arabian league? he once stated that he will be willing to return to Sporting Lisbon his first club that brought him into limelight before his final retirement and I am very sure he will have remain committed to Man Utd if money was his problem, It's a welcome development that Beckham approached him for a possible transfer to MLS, however I don't think the purported move will sail through though it's a rumour. Meanwhile Messi has made a commitment to stay at PSG with a two years contract .

Bitcoin adapting well, but the problem is most newbies join the Bitcoin trend to become rich overnight. It's because they introduced Bitcoin wrongly. I know many people become rich from Bitcoin but it's impossible overnight. It's become quite important to educate people about Bitcoin technology and how it works. Besides that how the Bitcoin price works should know by every Bitcoin user. So that they will not regret upon the bear market.

yes, indeed, so if the teacher only provides bitcoin education incompletely or half and half it will certainly have a bad effect on students who are still beginners, because I also had the experience of learning bitcoin from someone and he taught only gave lessons about bitcoin and he gave the lesson half and half, so he didn't explain about bear markets and so on, and I also suffered losses because I didn't know about bear markets, but until finally I didn't give up and I ended up learning a lot through online like YouTube, Google and so on.
Majority of newbies in crypto learnt about Bitcoin mostly during the bull runs especially when it price had peaked and invest in it, they didn't take time to learn more about season of bearish run until they they have a first time experience of a bearish run consequently a lot of them got disappointed with the downtrend of price because of fear and emotion sell off their coins probably thinking that the dumping will continue unabated, honestly it's requires a lot of courage and character not to sell as a new comer during a massive dumping, however with more knowledge and information via the internet many of them will later embrace Hodling of their bitcoin in bear market.

I'm looking forward to Poland vs Argentina. I think it will be one of the most enjoyable matches of the day. It's a must-win game for both teams. Especially for Argentina, even a draw might not be enough to qualify for the last 16. If Saudi Arabia draws and Argentina fails to beat Poland, Saudi Arabia will qualify for the last 16. So it's definitely a must win match for Argentina.
The group C qualification for the next round look dicey any of the four countries has a chances of moving to the next round in addition if Mexico defeat Saudi Arabia and Poland also defeat Argentina the two countries will qualify honestly Argentina needed an outright win, a draw could be very dangerous because of the outcome of the match between Mexico and Saudi Arabia might swing the table l am looking forward to watch the match which I believe will be keenly contested and very competitive between the four countries and no country should be underated in today's match.

Bitcoin was the first decentralized cryptocurrency, which first released as an open-source software in 2009 but didn't reach public attention.
 
Now, crypto education becomes a priority for world-class education institutions such as University of the Cumberlands (United Kingdom), University of the West of England (United Kingdom), University of Toronto (Canada), University of Warwick (United Kingdom), University of Waterloo (Canada), University of Westminster (United Kingdom), etc.

Learning cryptocurrency will attract you towards the digital world and internet technology. It will prepare you for the future, since digital world is here to stay, and technology is progressing and evolving rapidly.

Is it time for the whole world to embrace, adapt, add it in educational curriculum and teach cryptocurrency to the youth?
There is no need to integrate cryptocurrency into the educational curriculum because I perceived crypto as a thing of personal interest, even it is integrated it should be a unit course for Economic, Insurance and accounting courses, meanwhile there are lot of people who already knew or has a first hand information about cryptocurrency but never embrace it because of lack of interest, while others who are interested seek more information on it via the internet of course there are many information on the internet about cryptocurrency which is enough for any individual or coperate organization to take decisive action before investing in it or for educational learning.

Last match of group A Netherlands 1-0 Qatar and Senegal 0-0 Ecuador as it stand Netherlands will qualify with seven points while Ecuador needed a draw to earn five points for qualification, Senegal needed an outright win to put them for qualification and Qatar is out of the competition already they are playing a consolation match
Edit : Senegal is one nil up honestly the match is a tough match and interesting to wait till the final whistle and know who is qualifying and the team that will be knocked out between the two countries.

We all have a different experience how we started our first bet. Their are people who started bet without having any knowledge concerning it. Their are some people started with a help from a friend to bet and their are some who took their time to learn before they started paying bet.

How was your first start? Did you play blindly or spent some time to learn.?
To be honest I was very jittery and emotional in my first experience in betting I was always checking my betslip from time to time to ascertain whether am still winning or not because of accumulated bets, of course I didn't bet blindly my preference is soccer betting being a soccer enthusiast, I played soccer as a teenager and grew to know every nitty-gritty of soccer as well as it various bettings with some little research after some analysis via different source I pick my bets and play it, of course I won some as well as lose some because I took gambling as fun thus I don't gamble with fear.
1496  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 28, 2022, 10:03:57 AM
I think Hakim Ziyech will still be considering a move away for better opportunities and playing time because it looks like he has fallen out of favour with the new manager talking about Erik Ten Hag. At this point I doubt if he will be granted an extension for further years. I still wonder why a player like Ziyech is not getting playing times at Chelsea. He needs a chance to show how much he can help the team.
If he show a good result during training or match, of course Graham Potter will let him to play. Ziyech has been played for 3 times when Tuchel still become Chelsea's manager, it's a match between Southampton, Leeds and Dinamo Zagreb, but as you can see Ziyech doesn't score any goal, moreover his shoots is really bad. I'd say Ziyech is only lucky during world cup match, we don't know how stable his performance.
I believe Ziyech is trying to prove his worth with the ongoing World Cup in Qatar especially with his assist for the second goal scored by Aboukhlal for Morocco, it's a pity he had not been given enough playing time in star-studded Chelsea by the duo of Tuchel and Graham Potter and with January transfer window coming up it's very obvious he will sign for another club in Europe were a regular playing time is guaranteed, there was a speculation that AC Milan wanted to sign before the beginning of this summer, Ziyech is good player and had been having an positive impact for Morocco.
1497  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: November 28, 2022, 06:54:36 AM
Morocco really cannot be underestimated, because Morocco previously managed to draw against Croatia with a score of 0-0 and then Morocco was able to beat Belgium with a score of 2-0. It was a quite surprising result for me, because I predicted earlier that in Group F it might belong to Croatia and Belgium.
But with a result like this, I'm very sure that Morocco will qualify for the next round, because in the last match Morocco will play against Canada, which I think Morocco still has a big chance of getting points.
Indeed. Marocco is undefeated so far, they got 1 draw and 1 win. It is clear that Marocco is a strong team, they got full points against Belgium and got 1 point against Croatia. These teams aren't weak teams, Marocco always got points although they played against strong teams. In the last match, Marocco will play against Canada, I am sure they will win and get 3 points because Canada is the weakest team in Group F. Sure, Marocco seems to qualify for the next round, I assume Marocco will lead Group F with 7 points. Croatia will play against Belgium, it won't be easy for Croatia. Belgium must play all out because they won't be eliminated in the group stage. I predict Croatia will get a draw in the last match.



Morocco defeating star-studded Belgium squad which includes Kevin De Bruyne, Lukaku, Cortious e.t.c is another upset in the on going World Cup this is an indication of a strong team, I watched their that match and particularly excited with their second goal via a counterattack with Ziyech final pass to Aboukhlal and it obvious that the country will surely qualify for the next round because Canada can't defeat them in their last match, while Belgium and Croatia will lockhorn to determine the runner up in the group that will be a very tough match either of the two will surely won't qualify.

Do you think it's good that I sold the house then I buy bitcoin with all the money?
because in my own calculations, my house value didn't increase in date year by year. the value is still stagnan, it's different when compare it with bitcoin, I will got 3 house when I sold my house then buy bitcoin with that money in 2018 and sold it again on ATH november 2021.

(I have 2 house, which I want sell it is abandoned house)
If you intend to sell your abandoned house that is fair enough, however never make any attempt to sell your own living home, I believe you wanted to take a risk by buying bitcoin now for long term perspective in a bid to earn reasonable amount of profits compared to an abandoned house that is not appreciating in value rather depreciating, I think the risk worth it considering the past history of Price Action of bitcoin for every bearish sentiment their is usually a period when the price will pump to attain ATH, if you decided to  buy now there is a big opportunity coming up for long term hodlers ahead because of bitcoin halving in 2024.

The first half of the Japan vs Costa Rica match has ended and the score is still a 0-0. It seems that the two teams still haven't found a gap from their respective opponents. seen throughout the match Japan and Costa rica took turns attacking and defending. a bit boring. I hope in the second half there will be more aggressive play.

80' match going on.Japan creating a lot of chance but don't score. Japan start to good playing in 2nd half.Japan Missing the little and good opportunity to score.I think, this match will be ended in draw like 0-0.But Costa Rica have some underdress in 2nd half but they have been playing well 1st half.
I thought this match would end in a draw. but it turns out that Costa Rica can win this match with a 1 goal advantage. although Japan appeared more attacking in this second half. but it seems their attacks did not produce goals so the final score was 1-0 over Costa Rica's advantage. And now Japan, Spain and, Costa Rica both have 3 points.
Costa Rica secured the victory by a great goal. Japan lost their point, Costa Rica added 3 points to their possession. Costa Rica played much better football than Japan in this match. All the players of the team performed brilliantly due to which they got the victory.
Kudos to Costa Rica for salvaging their much needed win against Japan to put them on track for a possible qualification for the next round although the seven goals conceded against Spain count a lot because of minus six goal deficit, however the outcome of the next match between Spain vs Germany will reveal their true position on the table, if Spain wins that means they will top that group while the runner up will be contested by Costa Rica, Japan, however if Spain lose the group will be opened for all the four countries in the last round for a keenly contested qualification.

No, bearish market still on. I don't think, investors and traders will experience bullish market in this month of November because the crypto market price is still decreasing without any sign of pumping high for investors and traders to have hope of see bullish market in this new month. I think, next month will be a favourable month to both long term investors and short term investors, because altcoins and Bitcoin price will definitely pump higher for those that invested well in the past to have access to the bullish market to achieve good incomes from the market.
It's true, I think the bear market will continue because looking at the current conditions, I think we need to be realistic.
I don't see a bull market coming anytime soon but I hope I'm wrong because you never know what will happen next.
What's clear is that you just keep following market developments
Majority of recent pump in price of both ethereum and bitcoin is just a bull trap the coast is not yet clear for a bullish run because there are many strong resistance to be broken by the price before a clearer picture of the market sentiment will be unveiled, better still except if there a strong fundamental news that might trigger a massive bullish run else the bearish sentiment will linger on even now that there are bad news related to cryptos especially the recent FTX exchange hack which resulted to loss of crypto worth millions of dollars had a significant impact on the price of cryptos.
