Not even sure if I'm in the right thread, but I was looking at stuff on the net and came across air quality and I looked around the world, for however accurate it actually is, half of saudi arabia is 'very unhealthy' levels ... blehhh.
I been to a few 'old world' countries and most have just awful air, smells like a toilet.... I wonder how the high priced footballers are getting on with that

Jesus this site never fails to deliver.

Barco should’ve had a brace already. Robbed twice

 

[HajdukSplit]

Its still early days and they are not the dominant force domestically as they used to be (but they still make some runs in Europe, Conference League semifinals last season) but FC Basel are second bottom in the Swiss league with 1 win in 6

That's a real likes for being Basel. Although it seems a lot of top teams in their domestic leagues struggles thus far.

Barco in the midfield in copa Lib. Safe to say his future lies there. Sucks

There isn't an Asian Cup thread, so I thought I'd put this here

Irate North Korea players attack Asian Games ref after quarter-final loss

North Korean tempers boil over after late penalty award gifts victory to Japan, but coach says ‘our behaviour is acceptable’.

No idea where to say this thread wise.

Going to a local college team footy match tonight... division 2 I believe? Couldn't care less what division it is, football is football and we get to see cross city rivalry tonight.... super pumped.

I mentioned it a few weeks ago but Basel's struggles continue, bottom of the Swiss league, already sacked their manager three months into his tenure and Heiko Vogel is back being the interim manager + sporting director

From the Czech league this weekend

From the Czech league this weekend

Broke the league goal record, previous record was 10 goals, which happened in 1995 and again in 2013 (9-1 and 5-5 respectively)

I recommend watching the highlights, some of the goals were quite nice from a shooting perspective, though the keepers were having a terrible night and one of them was even subbed out (it didn't help)

 

[HajdukSplit]

While Ajax and Lyon probably get more attention for their struggles, in Switzerland, Basel is in dead last, one win from 10 matches. Next week they play a direct rival and could be 7 points adrift of safety roughly a third into the season

 

[Live in the Now]

From the Czech league this weekend

Can’t believe that’s the same Matejovsky who played for Reading a million years ago.

 

[Savi]

@HajdukSplit why has Leko been fired??

Can’t believe that’s the same Matejovsky who played for Reading a million years ago.

One of I think four 40+ players in the league, also including Hübschmann, who used to play for the national team (otherwise Shakhtar Donetsk was the peak of his club career). This weekend also broke the record for oldest player to play in the Czech league, my local side Bohemians' captain Josef Jindříšek, at 42 years, 8 months and 8 days.

Poor performances last few weeks, their latest home loss to Osijek they didn’t have shot on target. Offensively they are struggling big time and doesn’t help Livaja is in poor form. Hajduk traditionally are not patient with managers, 2013/14 was the last time somebody last the entire season

Lol, that's an insane stat

Another betting scandal is happening now in Romania as a player, Virgile Pinson (ex-Reims), intentionally got a yellow card when he found out he was being substituted. Before the match a woman placed a bet in the same city that he'd get a yellow. It's a cancer and it's spreading.
