Posted in: Man Utd beats Barcelona in Europa League clash of giants See in context

They self claimed EPL is the best league in the world. Not sure about that. None of the English teams won their 1st leg in Champions League. Chelsea and Spur lost, Man City draw, and Liverpool famously and embarrassingly trashed. Last 8 may not even have one representative from England. I hope not! Guess EPL teams are more suitable for Europa League.

Posted in: Sea otters could disappear from Japanese aquariums See in context

In Singapore its an offence to kill or hurt sea otters. Signs are placed near their habitat and warned not to go near them but watch from afar. They are cute and family of otters were reported regularly entering private homes to kill all the kois in the pond for food, yet they roam freely.

Let the Chinese come for holiday and we will go into intolerance level again. Don't complain when daily needs especially medication become unaffordable.

212 arrived in Milan with 50% tested positive. Scary to think that millions from China will travel overseas in January. First they don't trust western medication which obviously their own don't work. Then they stop giving figures to WHO, with hundreds of thousands infected daily, not mentioning the death figures. Now they open up for themselves to travel and will start spreading worldwide again. Those who are not infected will come and clean up all the medications on the shelves and push prices up again. Good luck.

Posted in: France beats England 2-1 to advance to semifinals See in context

Every WC since 1966, England is always one of the favourites but you can safely put your money on them not winning. In fact since the last trophy, they have won nothing, not even European Championships which Greece and Denmark had done better. As one of the big boys, they must be the biggest choker! 56 years and counting...

Posted in: Croatia beats Brazil on penalties to set up semifinal clash with Argentina See in context

They thought they won and just like 1982 WC, when all they need was a draw with Italy to qualify next round, they got carried away especially Antony....and so Paolo Rossi punished them. Brazil never learn do they? Honestly, when Fred came on, you know Croatia might score.

Posted in: Sluggish England frustrated in U.S. stalemate See in context

Typical cocky English commentator. When Netherlands were leading 1-0 against Ecuador, he mentioned England manager Southgate must take note of these young Ecuadorian players. So cocksure? After England game, now I hope they meet the Dutch and get knock out next round. Please, they have won nothing since '66, even Denmark and Greece did better in recent years winning Euro. No shame, typical snobbish English man.

Posted in: Malaysia Islamic minister says Bon Odori dance not for Muslims See in context

First, they said don't do yoga as it belongs to a different religion. Now, they say don't participate in Bon Odori. Other than their own traditional dance, they should just ban all form of dancing since going backward is their choice of life.

Mighty Liverpool have not beaten the other 3 teams in top four all season. Won 2 cups in Penalties, now lost to RM. When Klopp faces good managers, his team just can't win, period.

Posted in: Germany to face Spain, Japan at World Cup; Iran and U.S. in same group See in context

Every 4 years the same old story. England is always one of the favourites. People, they have won nothing in 56 years not even the European Cup. At least Denmark and Greece done that. They are a joke! Keep barking British bulldog.

Posted in: Academy: Will Smith was asked to leave Oscars after Rock slap but refused See in context

Nothing happened after the slapping. An hour later, a standing ovation when announced he was the winner. After all the fiasco, now they said they told him to leave but he refused? That's the biggest lie and excuse!

Posted in: Don't help Russia's invasion, Biden tells China's Xi in video call See in context

Never threaten Xi or even India. These two are the future economy powerhouse (even though they are already there or almost there) and US and Europe will need them. Sure, the West can work with Saudi but be careful with their oily hands when they are around your neck, especially in their embassy.

Posted in: Don't help Russia's invasion, Biden tells China's Xi in video call See in context

Currently, many Russian and Ukrainian travelled to Mexico and are at Tijuana trying to cross over to US to seek asylum but only Ukrainian are allowed because of "humanitarian" ground. Are we missing something here? They are saving people selectively just like what Europe did when Syrian refugees came.

Posted in: Zelenskyy pleads for help in speech to U.S. Congress; Biden calls Putin war criminal See in context

Followed Ukraine development after the dissolved of Warsaw agreement, everybody wanted a piece of Ukraine not to mentioned the "people" backing the in-house fighting, then came a Georgian (closed to West) converted to Ukrainian citizen ruling a state which is ridiculous. Yes, Putin is a crazy man killing innocent but the West with the world number 1 instigator is no angel either. I pray peace returns to Ukraine soon.

This is exactly what Russia wanted for other nationality to join in the war. Make them understand that by volunteering, Japan will no longer be responsible for their well being. If captured, Japan should never negotiate with Russia for their returns.
