@no2hater @LukeTrago @JamesDagg8 @Timodc @hasanthehun Yeah sorry man, but you just don't understand the history very well. This isn't a debate among historians. I'm no communist, but you're just denying reality. There was no alliance. They both were preparing for war with each other for every second of those 22 months.

@InternatBreak @LukeTrago @JamesDagg8 @Timodc @hasanthehun “They were ideological enemies” yeah which is why they committed to carving up the rest of Europe in the coming war. Stalin was just joking around when he allied with the Nazis guys

Do not think people should consider violence over virginia gerrymandering rulings. There are plenty of other remedies. In fact, Democrats are likely to win 8 seats out of 11 and control the house of representatives.

@no2hater @LukeTrago @JamesDagg8 @Timodc @hasanthehun They both knew war was inevitable, they were ideological enemies, but they both needed time to prepare. Hitler needed less time than Stalin, so he invaded, much later than he planned to by the way. But this is not an "alliance." I think you owe that man an apology

@LukeTrago @JamesDagg8 @Timodc @hasanthehun “You’re gonna have to do some research yourself” = I have no idea what I’m talking about but if I pretend like I’m above explaining my reasoning people might think I’m smart

@no2hater @LukeTrago @JamesDagg8 @Timodc @hasanthehun There's nothing to argue. It's not even a debate. 1. The Soviets and Nazis were eternal enemies. Before the Molotov-Ribbentrop, during, and after. Stalin hated Hitler, Hitler hated Stalin 2. Both the Soviets and the Nazis spent the 22 month period preparing for war w/each other

A stunned silence has fallen over Rabat. 50 years without a trophy for Morocco🇲🇦. The Lions of Teranga🦁 are champions for the second time in their history. Papa Gueye is the hero for Senegal🇸🇳.

Mane🇸🇳 defeats Salah🇪🇬 once again. Senegal🇸🇳 are back in the final. Egypt🇪🇬 are out.

Egypt🇪🇬 before Salah: 2006: AFCON Champions🥇 2008: AFCON Champions🥇 2010 AFCON Champions🥇 Egypt🇪🇬 with Salah: 2012: Failed to Qualify❌ 2013: Failed to Qualify❌ 2015: Failed to Qualify❌ 2017: Runners-up🥈 2019: Round of 16 2021: Runners-up🥈 2023: Round of 16 2025: ❔❔

They meet again. 🇪🇬🇸🇳 - 2015 AFCON Qualifiers: Senegal🇸🇳 2-0 Egypt🇪🇬 Senegal🇸🇳 1-0 Egypt🇪🇬 Senegal🇸🇳 Qualifies✅ Egypt🇪🇬 is Eliminated❌ - 2021 AFCON Final: Senegal🇸🇳 0-0 Egypt🇪🇬 Senegal🇸🇳 Wins 5-3 in Penalties🥇 - 2022 World Cup Qualifiers - Playoff: Egypt🇪🇬 1-0 Senegal🇸🇳 Senegal🇸🇳 1-0 Egypt🇪🇬 Senegal🇸🇳 Advances 3-1 in Penalties✅ - Mane🇸🇳 will turn 34 in April. Salah🇪🇬 will turn 34 in June. Two of the greatest African players in history. It may be the last time they ever meet. Will it be Salah's🇪🇬 time, or will Mane🇸🇳 rule the rivalry forever?

The #AFCON2025 Quarter-finals begin today. Let's be honest, it has not been an exciting tournament thus far. We have not seen many surprises or comebacks, and all eight remaining nations were among the favorites coming into the tournament. What that means however is the remaining matches should be some of the most competitive we have ever seen at AFCON. Mali🇲🇱 vs Senegal🇸🇳 (January 9) Egypt🇪🇬 vs Ivory Coast🇨🇮 (January 10) Cameroon🇨🇲 vs Morocco🇲🇦 (January 9) Algeria🇩🇿 vs Nigeria🇳🇬 (January 10)

Adil Boulbina… The hero of Algeria🇩🇿.

Nigeria🇳🇬 have been as dominant as anyone at #AFCON2025. They will face the winner of Algeria🇩🇿 / DR Congo🇨🇩 in the Quarter-finals. Can Osimhen get back to the final and find redemption this year, or will Nigeria's trophy drought extend another two years?

Mozambique🇲🇿 are starting 42 year-old captain Domingues in their first ever AFCON knockout match. Domingues is the oldest outfield player to ever play at AFCON. He made his international debut in 2004. #AFCON2025

No, Egypt🇪🇬 has not looked particularly strong in this tournament, but it does not matter one bit. Last year, Ivory Coast🇨🇮 fired their manager because they were awful in the group stage. They went on to win the entire tournament. Egypt🇪🇬 are through to the quarter-finals now, and they will face the winner of Ivory Coast🇨🇮 / Burkina Faso🇧🇫. Is it finally his time? #AFCON2025

FULL-TIME: Egypt🇪🇬 3 Benin🇧🇯 1 Egypt🇪🇬 gets the job done, but it was not pretty. Incredible effort from Benin🇧🇯, who were without their leader Steve Mounie today due to a sickness. Will there be an upset at this tournament? #AFCON2025

Yasser Ibrahim🇪🇬 has never played for a club outside of his country: Mansoura🇪🇬 Zamalek🇪🇬 Smouha🇪🇬 Al-Ahly🇪🇬 At 32 years old, this is only his 11th international appearance. He is the second lowest valued player on Egypt🇪🇬 (€400,000) according to Transfermarkt. #AFCON2025

Yasser Ibrahim takes the lead for Egypt🇪🇬 in Extra-Time! The unlikeliest of heroes! After 32 years of life, it's his first ever international goal! #AFCON2025 x.com/futbol_hubX/st…

The wonder kids send Cameroon🇨🇲 through to the Quarter-finals! They knock out World Cup-bound South Africa🇿🇦 2-1 thanks to goals from 22 year-old Junior Tchamadeu, and 19 year-old Christian Kofane! #AFCON2025

South Africa🇿🇦 vs Cameroon🇨🇲 Preview: #AFCON2025 - Round of 16 - On paper, Cameroon🇨🇲 look like the clear favorites. They feature a number of superstar players, including Carlos Baleba, Christian Kofane, and of course Bryan Mbeumo. However, this team is incredibly young. No player in the squad has scored more than 8 goals for their country, they feature five players aged 22 years old and younger in their starting 11, and only two players over the age of 26. South Africa🇿🇦 on the other hand does not overwhelm you with their talent, showcasing 19 domestic league players in their squad, but they play very well together. They qualified for the 2026 World Cup earlier this year, and will make their first appearance at the tournament since they hosted it back in 2010. And of course, we cannot forget Lyle Foster, who has a chance to be South Africa's🇿🇦 all-time leading goalscorer by the time his career wraps up. This is anyone's match, and it should be very entertaining.

@Zweli__SA This has been the case for five years unfortunately

@InternatBreak This one is useless, he made them look like a man down

Tanzania🇹🇿 need a hero... #AFCON2025
