If Ubisoft won't give us more modern day info then I think we should make AMA's of modern assassins/templars. I'm reading an AMA of an animal researcher and I keep imagining a templar talking about their work on the animus project.

Old age debate !!
Is possession overrated? Definitely not true in this case. Spain held 83%, they had more passes just in final third as compared to total attempted pass by Costa Rica.
Tumblr media
Gavi, Pedri, Torres, Soler start their WC Debut with scintillating performance, goals & assist.
Keylor Navas was exposed at times but he just looked like a shadow of himself at goal post. Otherwise how one can explain, Spain had 8 shots on target and they scored 7.
Spain : Costa Rica
FT 7 : 0

After an utterly boring and one sided match so far, Morata is on.
Darling, don't disappoint me.
Give me chaos. This has been entirely too snoozefest-y so far.

What does Atletico Madrid need to be a challenger, not merely a contender?
The question was asked to me by David Martin of Sportsburstfans
https://www.facebook.com/groups/862391814168838/posts/1791971374544206/?comment_id=1792133931194617&reply_comment_id=1793102807764396
The Following is my answer
hmmm, good question. Before the Ronaldhino/Messi era at barca, barca were challengers but not winners, the trophy cabinet was not particularly grand. The cruyff era started the change in barca to being a contender in all things. Before cruyff barca was a great club but in terms of expectations, it was nothing but a contender. So, to your question, Atletico have the coach, simeone, he has brought consistency to contend. But what atletico is missing is one of three things 1) a di stefano/ronaldo phenomenon/cr7/ronaldhino and company , a group of hired players who dominate the space. 2) a messi player and company, a talismanic player from the academy aside quality youth who can dominate Atletico madrid has never had any of the squads real madrid or fc barca had in the past that dominated in an era. 3) keeping high goalscoring players, not selling diego costa, not selling falcao, keeping even an older forlan.
Look at alvaro morata, you know how many times i saw him not score sitters, goals a cr7/icardi/messi , yes all three of players have different styles but all will score those sitters. That is how you challenge. People talk about the guardiola era at barca but again, theirry henry/eto'o/messi all are natural high goal count players, that matters. That is how you score when your not playing well, when things aren't going good for you. Look at rea madrid, yes, mbappe is selfish and jude isn't the best football player but both score goals, and add to viniciusjr's goals and there you have it. But look at atletico madrid, you take griezzman out, atletico madrid aren't third and have no player to score goals.
Media is suggesting the presence of alvarez is going to transform atleti and i am thinking to myself, atleti let memphis depay go, if griezman gets hurt who does his role with depay gone? Joao or Alvarez aren't talismanic. They are both nice attacking players who play the multipositional role well, but neither are high goal scorers and neither have the responsibility to be talismanic, which is why i liked depay. Him and griezzman kept atleti alive last season though few admitted it.
And this is my point, truly big teams use money to challenge. Atleti isn't a big team and that is why we contend not truly challenge David. So to sum up all this talk, 1)Atleti need to spend money to keep certain players, and atleti don't have the media clout like a fc barca/real madrid where media people ask why did this player leave atleti, you ever notice, when most players leave barca or real madrid media is filled with , why they do that, but when players leave atletico media says, inevitability. 2) Atleti need to get very lucky and have some grand development squad like ajax/santos/fc barca/mufc in their histories, and have the money to keep them, i think the ownership of atleti will be willing to spend the money in the simeone era but the youth squad hasn't arrived:) 3) Atleti need to act like true big teams and pay for a mercenary squad that does the job. People laugh at psg, but they got to a final and lost 1-0 . The first galacticos of real madrid only won two trophies but one was a laliga and the other was a uefacl so… mission accomplished. going mercenary is an expensive gamble but if you win the uefacl it is all worth it. at the end of the day MCFC won it in the guardiola era and when you look at the complete guardiola era it was very expensive. People focus on the latter eyars and forget the beginning, he spent like crazy.

To feel envy is human, to savour schadenfreude is devilish.
- Arthur Schopenhauer
I was in the stadium with members of my family and friends watching the epic Japan vs Spain World Cup game. What an atmosphere at the end of the game when both Japanese and Spanish fans realised they were now through the group and that Germany were now knocked out of the World Cup despite their 4-2 win over Costa Rica.
Spain completely dominated the first half, but Japan overcame this to win 2-1 stunningly. Spain chose Alvaro Morata as their customary number nine, which instantly paid dividends as the Atlético Madrid player headed in the opening goal after receiving a precise cross. As Spain dominated possession and limited Japan to a few half-chances in the first half, Morata continued to provide a threat from inside the box.
After the break, Japan's high-intensity pressing punished Spain for sloppy passing by stealing the ball, which replacement Ritsu Doan skillfully finished. Almost shortly after, Japan put the ball in the back of the net once more, and a VAR review affirmed that Ao Tanaka's goal stood. Minutes before the end, Dani Olmo came within inches of winning, but Japan held on thanks to an outstanding second-half performance to win Group E. The ‘Samurai Blue’ more than deserved their draw and to go through. They were tenacious and full of self belief and energy. It was a great game.
At the end of the game Japanese fans were crying with joy and the Spaniards along with neutrals in the stands joined them. It was a cathartic moment for all football fans when it dawned on us that German were humiliated and on their way home.
In the hotel bars afterwards the drink flowed. I was with Japanese friends and Spanish friends and others as we celebrated. Never did a Suntory Yamazaki 12 Year Old single malt whisky taste so sweet. We watched around us Qataris on television having fun at the Germans’ expense.
On the eve of the World Cup the game’s governing body threatened to book players – such as the seven European captains, including Germany’s Manuel Neuer – who were planning on wearing the OneLove armbands, which promote diversity and inclusivity. Same-sex relationships and the promotion of same-sex relationships is criminalised in Qatar, a Muslim-majority country with Islam as the state religion.
In protest, the Germans had covered their mouths - a reference to being silenced by FIFA - for their pre-match photograph before the Japan game. “Human rights are non-negotiable,” the German federation said in a statement at the time. “That should be taken for granted, but it still isn’t the case. That’s why this message is so important for us. Denying us the armband is the same as denying us a voice. We stand by our position.” Their conduct greatly angered the Qataris - and indeed many Arabs and other Muslims here at the World Cup. They saw double standards and starch western hypocrisy at work, and even racism.
The Germans have a point - up to a point. But so do the Qataris - it is after all their sovereign country, not ours. Qataris and others would say if you don’t speak up for the Uygher Muslim being rounded up in concentration camps in China during the last Winter Olympics, or speak up for the endless litany of human righrs violation in Putin’s Russia during the last footbal World Cup, then what leg are you standing on to speak up for others elsewhere? Why are you so selective in your activism? Activism is easy when it doesn’t cost you anything.
Much of the Western media coverage of the World Cup is so misinformed and just plain hyperbolic BS.
In any case, German had decided to focus their energies on their holier than thou woke virtue signalling at the start of this tournament rather than focus on the football.
They paid the piper.
The Japanese have a saying: “The misfortunes of others taste like honey.” The French speak of joie maligne, a diabolical delight in other people’s suffering. The Danish talk of skadefryd, and the Dutch of leedvermaak. In Hebrew enjoying other people’s catastrophes is simcha la‑ed, in Mandarin xìng‑zāi‑lè‑huò, in Serbo-Croat it is zlùradōst and in Russian zloradstvo. More than 2,000 years ago, Romans spoke of malevolentia. Earlier still, the Greeks described epichairekakia (literally epi, over, chairo, rejoice, kakia, disgrace). “To see others suffer does one good,” wrote the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. “To make others suffer even more so. This is a hard saying, but a mighty, human, all-too-human principle.”
The Germans of course call it schadenfreude. I love the German word: schadenfreude. From Schaden, meaning damage or harm, and freude, meaning joy or pleasure: damage-joy.
The philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer called it “an infallible sign of a thoroughly bad heart and profound moral worthlessness,” the very worst trait in human nature. (He also said that anyone caught enjoying the suffering of others should be shunned from human society.)
I have come to believe that Schopenhauer was wrong. We might worry that a taste for other people’s misery will corrupt our souls, yet this emotion is far from simply “bad.” It touches on things that have mattered most to human societies for millennia: our instincts for fairness and hatred of hypocrisy; our love of seeing our rival suffer in the hope that we might win ourselves; our itch to measure ourselves against others and make sense of our choices when we fall short; how we bond with each other; what makes us laugh. If we peer more closely at this hidden and much-maligned emotion, liberate ourselves from its shame and secrecy, we will discover a great deal about who we really are.
It’s telling no one I’ve observed talks about LGBT rights or even migrant labour exploitation in the bars or just amongst the football gathering of fans. They just came for the football. It’s a reminder that the self-important culture wars of the West are of little importance to the wider world. They really don’t care.
Football may not bring the world together around LGBT issues but it sure can unite the world around having a laugh at Germany’s ignominious exit from the Qatar World Cup. I would call that progress.

Álvaro Carrillo Alarcón
Was a black mexican composer who technically made half of the Chilena genre by himself and just like revolutionize the bolero in mexico. He was born on December 2, 1919 in the town of Cacahuatepec, Oaxaca. Their parents were José María Carrillo Jiménez & Candelaria Morales de Carrillo. He had 3 siblings, and his bio mother died when he was very young, the second wife of Mr. Carrillo was Todora Alarcón, from whom Álvaro takes the second surname in gratitude for the affection with which she took care of him and his siblings.
From an early age he showed his talent for composition by creating regional songs such as the Chilean, a musical genre from the Costa Chica in Oaxaca, his homeland, characterized by linking cheerful and picaresque verses with the romantic and brave feeling of the costeños. In the academic field, he obtained the title of Agricultural Engineer from the then National School of Agriculture (ENA) of Chapingo, to which he dedicated Goodbye to Chapingo, and a time in which he ventured into the Modern Romantic Bolero that inspired him to create songs that They have kept it current in popular taste through the years. (editado)
As a sign of admiration and affection, the Chapingo Autonomous University annually holds the Álvaro Carrillo Fan Song Festival in the auditorium that bears his name, which invites students from the institution to participate in the categories of Poetry Composition and Interpretation.
He has composed literally SO MANY SONGS. And they have been sung by so many people: las Hermanas García (who are also from la costa chica!), Lila Downs, YOSHIO, Los Tres Panchos even Frank Sinatra
On April 3, 1969, the teacher Álvaro Carrillo lost his life in a car accident that occurred at kilometer 19 of the Mexico-Cuernavaca highway, when he was returning from attending the inauguration, in Chilpancingo, of the then governor of the State of Guerrero. His remains rest in the Composers Lot of the Panteón Garden in Mexico City.

Oh yeah, for sure. Japan surprised everyone this tournament I think. I honestly think their match against Costa Rica was a blip. And Germany has (as has Spain to a lesser degree) a tournament history and that also carries a lot of weight I think in how people perceive those teams and then judge their performances.
Although last night was torture, I am really happy Spain made it through (by the skin of their teeth jesus). Luis Enrique has such a young squad and it makes it really exciting to see how they'll perform. I think I stopped watching Barça years ago. Imagine my surprise when I see them play in the CL and Xavi is the manager instead of captain. I'm just glad three of the Atleti boys made the selection and Alvaro seems to be doing well scoring us goals, so no complaints so far
Spain really have some actual babies in their team 😭 Amy and I basically adopted Ansu when we were watching them for Anto 🥺
I'm so happy for Alvaro actually bc he got so much shit before he returned to Atleti and it really seems like he's finding his feet again this season.
