    Israeli govt tweet scolding Palestinian kids playing football at Al-Aqsa Mosque

    Tel Aviv: An Israeli foreign ministry tweeted the video scolding Palestinian kids for playing football on the grounds of Al-Aqsa Mosque.

    On April 9, Israeli foreign ministry took to Twitter and wrote, “What is happening right now at Al-Aqsa? Following the evening payers of #Ramzan many youngsters entered the Masque & closed the doors, for no reason.

    “Meanwhile, soccer matches are being held just next to the Mosque. Is this how the sanctity of the place is being maintained?,” Israeli foreign ministry added.

    MS Education Academy

    The tweet caused an uproar on social media platforms with people pointing out the hypocrisy of bringing up ‘sanctity’ a week after Israeli forces attacked worshippers.

    One of the Twitter user wrote, “Is this your lame excuse to beat the worshippers up violently, during the holy month of #Ramadan? The irony is so thick! You talk about sanctity while disregarding Palestinian lives.”

    Another user shared a video of Israeli settlers beating worshippers in Al Aqsa Mosque and wrote, “Who authorizes you to treat Muslims in this way?  While they were performing prayers in Al-Aqsa Mosque, your forces entered them and assaulted them, violating the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque.”

  • Maidaan is biopic on Hyderabad’s legendary football coach Rahim; will release on June 23

    Maidaan is biopic on Hyderabad’s legendary football coach Rahim; will release on June 23

    [ad_1]

    Syed Abdul Rahim, India’s most successful football coach, never received any recognition or reward from the government of India. From his early days he spotted talented boys on the football fields of Hyderabad, trained them and took them to play for Indian tricolour. Many of them rose to dizzying heights. What motivated him was his passion and dedication. Under his guidance India finished fourth in the Melbourne Olympics and won the gold medal in the Asian Games of 1962 beating Japan and Korea. But sadly his great contribution to Indian football was never given the recognition that it deserved.

    Although he ushered in the Golden Era of Indian football, he did not get any awards. He was one of the most sought after persons who did not care to build contacts among political leaders and he bowed before no one. Political leaders favour those who are servile to them and therefore upright persons like Rahim cannot get into their good books.

    While the politicians and people in power ignored his contribution a filmmaker has come forward to immortalize his contribution to India by a making a film on him named Maidaan.

    MS Education Academy

    The film’s teaser trailer has been released. The clip is about 90 seconds long and it tells the story of a fight against the odds by Rahim and his Indian team. The trailer opens with monochrome shots from the 1952 Summer Olympics held in Helsinki (Finland). India fared badly on that occasion and lost 10-1 to Yugoslavia in the preliminary round. But the resounding defeat did not discourage Rahim. Instead it brought out his fighting spirit.

    He studied the training methods used by the European teams. The rampaging Hungarian team under the captaincy of the legendary Ferenc Puskas was ruling the world in those days. Rahim studied their training and tactics and then modified the same to suit Indian players. Obviously Indian players who had less stamina could not exactly copy the methods of the Europeans. But with some alterations, the Indian team could also benefit. So Rahim planned it all out and met with success in the next edition of the Olympic Games in 1956.

    India defeats Australia

    On 1st December 1956, India gave an outstanding display that stood out like a beacon in the history of Indian football. India defeated host Australia 4-2 as ace striker Neville D’Souza scored a hat trick and the livewire of the Indian team, Kittu (Krishnaswamy), scored one goal. No football fan will ever forget that display. But what is happening now? Australia which had once tasted defeat against India now plays in the final phase of the FIFA World Cup while India has dropped to the bottom. India now has highly paid foreign coaches and support staff but they have not been able to deliver the results that Rahim had done in 1956.

    It is hoped that the film will bring out the facts about this wonderful coach. It is learnt that the filmmakers had sought inputs from the late S.S. Hakim, son of coach Rahim. Hakim who was an Air Force officer had himself played in the Olympics and was a highly qualified coach and referee too. He passed away in 2021 but his vast knowledge, if used well, should make this an absorbing film. The music has been composed by A.R. Rahman and this will undoubtedly provide an added attraction.

    In the film Ajay Devgn plays the role of Rahim. One hopes to hear the actors speaking the Hyderabadi (Deccani) version of Urdu. If the characters speak in chaste Hindi, the impact and the mood will be lost. It is hoped that Devgn will do justice to this important role. After many delays due to the pandemic and other reasons, the film is scheduled for a theatrical release on 23rd June 2023. It will be a proud day for Hyderabad when the film finally hits the screens. All Indians will come to know about the life and struggles of this legendary coach from our city.

  • Swiss football fans raise flag of Palestine in match against Israeli team

    Swiss football fans raise flag of Palestine in match against Israeli team

    [ad_1]

    The Swedish fans raised the Palestinian flag during the football match that took place on Wednesday evening, between the Swedish team and the “Israeli team” in the Euro 2024 qualifiers.

    The Swiss national team achieved its second victory in the qualifiers, and destroyed the goal of Israel three times, in the match that took place at the Geneva stadium, for the second round of the Group Nine matches of the Euro qualifiers.

    Dozens of pictures and video clips of fans flying the Palestinian flag and some banners denouncing the occupation and the policy of apartheid on the stands of the Geneva stadium were spread on social media.

    One of the videos showed dozens of fans raising Palestinian flags, while they interacted with the sound of music inside the stadium, as it seemed that it was raised in the face of the Israeli players.

    PACBI account on Twitter, which belongs to the Palestinian campaign for the academic and cultural boycott of Israel, which challenges Israeli apartheid, through academic, cultural and sports campaigns, published pictures of Swiss fans raising the Palestinian flag.

    The account commented on the photos, saying, “Wonderful, during the Switzerland-Israel match in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, amazing support for the rights of the Palestinians, and against the Israeli apartheid regime.”

    He added, “The campaign of solidarity with Palestine and the fight against racism, and the student and sports groups promised to raise the red card in the face of Israeli apartheid, and they did!”

    Previous cases

    European countries witnessed similar events when it came to the presence of an Israeli team on their soil, as dozens of people demonstrated around the Tallaght stadium in Dublin, the capital of Ireland, in September 2022, before the start of their national team’s match against “Israel” U-21.

    Video: UAE-based Indian bizman gifts Keralite farmer ‘Argentina football house’

    An ‘Argentina Football House’ is making rounds on social media platforms as it was gifted by an United Arab Emirates (UAE)-based Indian businessman to a farmer from Kerala whose unique commentary went viral during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022.

    Afi Ahmed, managing director of UAE-based Smart Travels, built the house for Zubair Vazhakkad, a farmer in Vazhakkad village in Kerala’s Malappuram district.

    During the FIFA World Cup matches, Zubair’s commentary in a regional Malay accent became viral on social media. Despite not having professional qualifications, the farmer was familiar with all the teams and players.

    When Afi learned of Zubair’s passion for soccer and his love for Messi and Argentina, the business tycoon offered to fly with Zubair to Qatar to watch his favorite games live.

    However, Zubair had to decline the offer as he had to take care of his ailing family members. After this, Afi offered to restore Zubair’s dilapidated house and gifted him a house with an Argentinian theme.

     “It is my dream home. I don’t have words to thank him,” Zubair was quoted as saying by Gulf News.

    Football | Le Parisien: A young woman accuses PSG’s Achraf Hakim of rape

    [ad_1]

    The alleged act is said to have taken place between Saturday and Sunday at the home of Hakim, who is a member of the Moroccan national team.

    24 years old a woman accuses someone who plays in Paris Saint-Germain, the star club of the French football league Achraf Hakim about rape, a French newspaper Le Parisien tells.

    The woman had gone to the police station on Sunday and told that she had been raped. The alleged act is said to have taken place between Saturday and Sunday at Hakim’s home.

    The woman claims that Hakimi had kissed her, taken off her clothes and inserted his fingers inside her despite the prohibitions.

    Spanish sports magazine FLAT said Hakim was home alone at the weekend. His wife and the couple’s children were on vacation in Dubai. Both Le Parisien and AS said Hakim paid for the woman’s trip to the football star’s home over the weekend.

    According to the woman, the two met through Instagram in mid-January.

    Woman did not want to file a lawsuit against Hakim, according to Le Parisien, but the prosecutor had taken the case under investigation due to its seriousness.

    Hakimi, 24, was part of Morocco’s core men at the World Championships played in Qatar at the end of last year. Morocco finished fourth in the tournament.

    Hakimi, who has played in PSG’s defense since the 2021-2022 season, was not in the team’s squad on Sunday in the assembly in an away match against Marseille.
