FIFA’s hypocrisy. Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan, the first ever from Somalia selected for the World Cup was turned away at the US border in Miami. 1. He had a valid visa + diplomatic passport. 2. US officials denied entry anyway “due to vetting concerns.” 3. FIFA just accepted it and removed him from the 2026 roster. Like how come???

@ultras_clips Bet, they are Iranian who support Reza Pahlevi vs Iranian who support the Supreme Leader. 👀

🚨🇮🇷 Conflict between Iranians after the match against New Zealand! 😳

@jasonllevin Need to keep away sports and politics, especially Trump.

Do You Support the Decision by the NY Knicks?

@isaacrrr7 If you didn't to have a migration from another countries, go have kids.

🔴 Japón RECHAZA la construcción de cementerios musulmanes en su territorio. 🇯🇵 "En Japón, la cremación es una tradición… la solución adecuada para los musulmanes es repatriar los restos a sus países de origen." ¿Estás de acuerdo con Japón?

@PolymarketSport Trump right now.

🚨TRENDING: Iran player Mohammad Mohebi scores and immediately does the finger-gun shooting celebration towards the crowd in the USA.

• Mikel Arteta is set to renew his contract with Arsenal and spearhead the title defence of The English Champions. The club approached our Basque native earlier this year, and it was agreed Mikel wanted to focus on delivering us major silverware & to earn his position within the home of the champions. Total accountability. My understanding is that Enrique Riquleme explored a secret plot to bring Arteta to Madrid if he had won his presidential election. Mikel is currently on 'holiday', yet actively involved in our transfer operations. While everyone at the club are behaving like it’s a done deal, the club hope to finalise the inner details of the most important contract at the club. Minimum 3 years - the wheels are firmly on. Viva La Mikel. • Andrea Berta's current contract runs until 2028. As I understand it, senior officials from Saudi explored a possibility of luring the Italian to the Middle East, while Bayern also covertly did the same thing. Andrea promised Mikel last summer he would deliver him a squad worthy of major silverware… mission completed, with the UCL now in their sights. Another thing I wanted to mention is Micheli Maurizio, the man responsible for scouting Hamšík, Kvaratskhelia, Kim Min-Jae and now Christos Tzolis. While Arsenal aim to add atleast 2 attackers, do not underestimate the authority and respect this man has within the club and wider football. Two weeks ago, I was speaking to the representatives of a player who told me Micheli was the one holding court without the presence of Berta. This duo act are conducting business seamlessly, as you can see with the revamp of the Arsenal youth set up, for which I am told the club have ring fenced a special transfer budget. • The contract of Declan Rice is also a major focus for Arsenal this summer, with initial talks starting early this year. As I understand it, Declan is very happy at Arsenal despite interest from the likes of Real Madrid and others. Talks are going smoothly and expect this to get done in due course. • Jurrien Timber's contract is very close to completion. Minor details remain. • David Raya has a 1 year optional extension on his current contract, which has 2 years left. All parties are very relaxed about his long term future, as a pay rise was agreed last summer. As for all the rumours circulating, as of today, Arsenal are yet to make direct contact with ANY club for a MIDFIELDER. I am happy to provide a 'state of play' post on the midfielder situation if that would be helpful? HandofArsenal roundtable.io/sports/soccer/…

@r230614_shin Question, why Japanese do even hire them? The answer is, you guys need them. Treat them like a human being, wearing hijab is their rights.

ヒジャブのまま看護師をするのは絶対にダメです。ナースキャップすら「衛生面の問題がある」と廃止されているのに、いつ洗ったかもわからない不潔なヒジャブで病院で働くなんて絶対におかしいですよ。

@NYCMayor A lot of angry people. That's why you need to learn other languages, not only English,

@JacobsBen Is there will be one of his supporter in top of tribune being a scapegoat again? Guess what, this time his left ear?

Exclusive: Donald Trump will be allowed to lift the World Cup trophy with the winning team, as he did at the Club World Cup. Trump will present the 2026 champions with the trophy on July 19 at MetLife Stadium alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino.🏆 talksport.com/football/world…

Shin Tae Yong (Man on the Left) The former head coach of the Indonesian national team, is also known for leading South Korea to a famous victory over Germany in the group stage of the 2018 World Cup. Unfortunately, he was he was sacked without any clear or convincing reason. After dumping Shin Tae Yong, the Indonesian football association scrambled to find a replacement. They were so impressed by Patrick Kluivert’s “dedication” that he supposedly ditched spending Christmas with his family just to attend the interview. (LMAO 😅) Some fans believe that if Shin Tae Yong had stayed on as coach, Indonesia might have had a realistic chance of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.

HOW?????

@talkSPORT Come on this guy again.

🫪 "Conference teams would beat Cape Verde!" 🫣 "I'm gonna go for 7-0!" Earlier today, Gabby predicted Spain to put 7 past Cape Verde! #fifaworldcup

51 days away until Arsenal play their first game. 5⃣1️⃣ 🔴⚪️

Where is this so called Mr of Mentality? 😂

@talkSPORT Couldn't agree more. That water break didn't just ruin the flow of the game, it completely shattered the team's rhythm. If FIFA keeps putting money first, then honestly, nothing can save the footballand fans.

OPINION: World Cup hydration breaks are anti-football and another shameless cash grab #Echobox=1781522623" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">talksport.com/football/world…

@SkySportsPL He was afraid getting humiliated by Saka and Timber next year. 😂

BREAKING: Marc Cucurella has joined Real Madrid from Chelsea on a six-year contract 📝✅

@Jani03112331 @AnnemarieDray They want to apply what they did with Basketball to football which is unreliable. They want to milking this event so bad is disgusting.

@SetPieceSorcery @AnnemarieDray They just don’t understand football.. It’s truly disgusting

This is truly horrendous. Curaçao have just scored their first ever World Cup goal and have momentum and then they stop the game for commercials. Absolutely detest this. No place for this nonsense in football.

Havertz ⚽️⚽️ Gyokeres ⚽️👟 Arsenal's forwards are on fire 🔥 🔴⚪️

@TMuk_news So it is not Arsenal? 👀

🥇 Chelsea 🥈 Man City 🥉 Man Utd The biggest-spending clubs over the past 5 seasons, with the Premier League featuring heavily in the top 20👀 transfermarkt.co.uk/real-madrid-25…

That chipped goal from Havertz add another goal for Germany. 7-1 #worldcup2026

Another goal for Germany. 6-1 Germsny is Curacao's nightmare 👀
