Huge stoppage time winner for Palestine 🇵🇸 over Iraq 🇮🇶 giving them their first win in this round of Asian World Cup Qualifiers & throwing a spanner into the race for 2nd place which equals automatic qualification for World Cup 2026.

Iraq 2-2 Kuwait. Incredible scenes as Kuwait lead 0-2 at 90’. Iraq get the equaliser on 100’ after relentless pressure.

But huge naivety from Kuwait having relieved pressure getting up the pitch & winning a FK on 99’, only to shoot on goal leading to the Iraq counter & goal.

Jamie Carragher arguing that Salah being from Egypt 🇪🇬 therefore not able to win a major competition may stop him from winning ballon d’or.

@MicahRichards correctly points out AFCON is a major competition.

@Carra23 scoffs and says ‘seriously’.
Incredibly disappointing.

Hard to believe 1860 Munich & Armenia Bielefeld are both in 3. Bundesliga now. Still both very well supported! 🇩🇪 🔥

Víkingur 2-1 Panathinaikos

What a result! Víkingur well deserved winners over Panathinaikos at "home" in Helsinki
Conceded from a weak penalty, but a really impressive performance for Sölvi Ottesen and his boys, who will feel confident going into the away game next week!

Antony is the top rated Betis player at half time on his debut, and he didn’t score either of the two goals.

Seriously considering switching to Solskjaer’s Besiktas.

Kyogo! My word he’s good

PSG vs Man City or
Celtic vs Young Boys?
Both should be competitive. Tough decision!

Newcastle have such an effective pattern of play. Their ability to get balls into the wing half spaces for crosses is so consistent & dangerous. And their organisation means there’s always someone in 10m of space. Impressive to watch.

Gakpo equalises for the league leaders. He’s no world beater, but it is curious to think Manchester United could have bought him for £30m but instead decided on Antony for £85m.

Heung Min Son 🇰🇷 praises the Palestine 🇵🇸 National Team’s work ethic in “difficult conditions” following the second draw between the teams in Asian World Cup Qualifiers.
November 21, 2024 at 4:58 PM
The Palestine 🇵🇸 national football team held Hueng Min Son & Kim Min Jae’s Korea Republic to a 1-1 draw in Amman last night.

A must see ‘break dance’ goal from Palestinian Zaid Qunbar to give his team an early lead.

Great episode with unique insights into Ruben Amorim’s history & formation from Portuguese journalist Miguel Pereira.
Rúben Amorim is officially the new Man United manager.

He joins after four years at Sporting, but what can we learn from this?

Miguel Pereira joins @andybrassell.bsky.social to explain why he thinks Amorim will be a success at Old Trafford.
