Random talks about the Arg NT 🇦🇷 : part 2 - Football & KPop, when my 2 fandoms collide

This is another random Argie talk, but before I get to write about them, first I want to mention my other fandom (outside football), which is KPop, as a prologue.

Yesung from the KPop group Super Junior is my first KPop bias, when I first fell into KPop hole circa 2013 (though I never call myself ‘ELF’, am just a ‘Cloud’, a Yesung-fan). It’s only after I became Shinhwa fan (4 years later, back in 2017) that I ended up 'left' football fandom.

Quick introduction about Shinhwa, they are the longest KPop group that ever exists, the one with no members changing, and never disbanding either. One of the reasons I love them badly is because the bond between members. The way they get closer with each fight (the members fought a lot, and I talk about real fistfight), at the same time use excessive skinship method (kissing, hugging, cuddling, getting naked together, having a bath/poop/pee together) to strengthen the chemistry, and it's been like that since their debut, back in 1997-98. The chemistry which makes the 6 of them a really good pairing, either in a form of a duo (15 OTPs) or a trio (10 pairings consisting of 3 members).

In 2018 this group celebrated their 20th anniversary with packed schedules, that's the major reason I skipped World Cup (other than all my faves played badly; The Dutch didn't even qualify, Germany's early exit and Argentina made you question the coach 'Why???').

After World Cup ended, obviously I still didn't bother to watch football (club-wise, I'm a fan of United and Juve since 2003/2004) because Shinhwa took away all my free time, considering so many stories they've had within that 20++ years and I was obsessed to learn everything about them.

But in the midst of busy fangirling over Shinhwa, somehow, I managed to watch Copa America 2021 semifinal, although I couldn't recall anything about the match, or the players, but my old tweet reminded me that I did watch La Scaloneta unconsciously.

Fast forward to this Qatar World Cup, tbh I only started to watch La Albiceleste until they played against the Netherlands (I need a good night's sleep more than football, so mostly just watched the highlights), and when they advanced to semis I watched their Prime “Camina a Qatar” docu-series, and just like that I am trapped.

It's like, initially I came to see Di Maria (my love since 2008) but ended up stuck with the rest of them. And just like years ago when I ditched football for KPop, now it's the other way around.

Call me crazy but I can't help to feel/think La Scaloneta bears several similarities with Shinhwa.

The way the Scalo boys bonded thru truco games ((jackstones, in Shinhwa's case)), barbecues, drinking mate ((for Shinhwa it's soju or beer)), and using profanities as a way to show affection, not to forget Scalo boys also give kisses and hugs, being playful/cheesy to one another (both IRL and on their SNS), every players is shippable (OTP material, I say), their brutal honesty and willingness to protect and defend the team, Scalo boys just remind me of all the things I love from Shinhwa.

And tbh I don't think I've seen a football team/group like this before ((maybe in the good ol' days of Barcelona. I read my old diary, and there I wrote 'this team is like family, no selfish/individualistic players at all)). But a good thing like this sometimes, unfortunately, doesn't last long, no matter how sure we are that these boys will stay solid like this forever.

This, I learned the hard way from Shinhwa. Even with the 6 of them spending 20++ years together, I used to be so confident their friendship will be eternal, that nothing can break the members' bond, turns out I was wrong cuz time and situation changed it little by little.

(Until today the group Shinhwa is still not disbanded yet, but they've been on hiatus since the pandemic, and only came together twice during the event of their members' weddings.)

Now let's go back with La Scaloneta. The way I see it, it all started with a good internal relationship between players, coaches, and AFA's long-time staff. That positivity, combined with Scalo's ability as their coach, helped them to play well on the field and won some games. The victories then generated public support in which boosted players' morale, till they had 36 unbeaten games, and earned 3 major trophies in just 17 months.

Post World Cup, now they are superstars. All eyes are on them. Enzo already stirred something between him, Benfica fans, and Chelsea fans with his transfer rumor. Lautaro scores a goal for Inter and toxic people won't stop talking shit about him because of his performance in WC, all the while praising La Arana Alvarez. Then there's this growing public opinion about Macca being too good to play for 'small team' Brighton, Dibu too good for Villa, Moli Rodri should leave Atletico, etc.

My question, when there’s a thin line between ‘supporters’ and ‘haters’ since people are so easy to judge, and so quick to switch sides, will that stuff affect them?

Today they all can say it's a healthy competition among players about who gets to play and who stays on the bench. But will tomorrow they say the same too? Especially now they are separated for a while, focusing on their club with each of them pursuing different goals, will they keep the chemistry intact once they back to Ezeiza, or will they start to act more individually as time go by?

That's why the more I fangirl over them, the more I actually feel anxious about the future of Scalo boys (especially if/once Leo no longer there), simply because I want to enjoy this happiness for a bit longer since it's only fair cuz we’ve suffered for a long long time.

‘Different territory’: How African football underdogs caused AFCON upsets

Abidjan, Ivory Coast – As the quarterfinal stage of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) kicks off on Friday in Ivory Coast, none of the five teams highest-placed teams in the FIFA ranking of December 2023 will feature.

Reigning champions Senegal, 2022 World Cup semifinalists and pretournament favourites Morocco, 2004 champions Tunisia, two-time champions and 2019 winners Algeria, and seven-time AFCON kings Egypt have all been eliminated. Other top teams like five-time champions Cameroon and four-time winners Ghana, have also exited the competition.

In a tournament which has come to be defined by the frequency of upsets, it is the unlikely progression of some of the continent’s lesser-fancied sides that is making the headlines.

As it stands, four of the last eight have never won the competition so the chances of a first-time champion are 50-50. These uncrowned four include perennial underachievers Guinea and Mali, which though boasting talented squads since the turn of the millennium, have never been able to progress beyond the last four. But there are also Cape Verde and Angola who have never even reached the semifinals before.

And some of the other results have been unbelievable: Equatorial Guinea triumphed 4-0 over Ivory Coast, even as Cape Verde won 2-1 against Ghana.

“The results you see in the AFCON are impossible at the Euros or Copa America,” former Nigerian forward Victor Ikpeba tells Al Jazeera. “Imagine the Faroe Islands beating Germany, or England losing to San Marino. Venezuela beating Argentina or Brazil rarely happens, but in African football it is possible.”

In addition, this edition has witnessed an unprecedented number of goals: With 105 already scored in advance of the quarterfinals, it has already surpassed the tallies from the past two editions.

The uptick in goals was expected after AFCON was upgraded to a 24-team tournament, beginning with this edition. Some – including Ikpeba, the 1997 African Footballer of the Year – argue that it is precisely this factor that is responsible for the improved fortunes of historically modest nations in this year’s edition.

“The expansion of the AFCON from 16 to 24 teams has given opportunity to so-called minnows to punch above their weight when they face some of the most successful countries on the continent,” he says.

“So many shocking results at the AFCON show that countries in Africa are developing fast and are not afraid of any team.”

Giving weight to this idea is the fact that, in Qatar in 2022, the continent’s elite sides made significant strides on the global stage. For the first time ever, all five of its representatives won at least one match at the World Cup, and not only did two of them advance to the knockout stages, but Morocco became the first African team to reach the semifinals. The Atlas Lions stunned more-fancied, higher-ranked nations such as Belgium, Spain and Portugal along the way, and consequently came into AFCON 2023 as favourites.

But even Morocco have since fallen by the wayside, exiting the competition after a 2-0 drubbing by South Africa who are ranked 66th globally, more than 50 places beneath the North Africans.

This, industry insiders say, is an indication that, rather than the better sides getting weaker, it is a case of the smaller nations rising to the challenge.

“African football is a different territory. Atlas Lions of Morocco can roar loudly at the World Cup but can easily be tamed by a team ranked 60 places below them in Africa,” says Mimi Fawaz, a broadcast journalist and African football specialist.

“There are remarkable changes happening within the continent. Some countries are putting their trust in local managers and also closing the gaps because of improved facilities,” she adds.

Targeted investment in local sporting infrastructure has also been central to their newfound success, much of it anchored upon the FIFA Forward Programme. The programme was conceived in a bid to provide 360-degree, tailor-made support for football development to all of FIFA’s member associations (MAs) and is based on three principles: more investment, more impact and more oversight.

Between 2016 and 2022, funding to the tune of $2.8m was made available to 211 MAs, according to the latest FIFA Forward Report. These disbursements were predicated upon compliance with the programme’s regulations, as well as annual audits by FIFA at the end of each financial year. With more funding, smaller countries have also been able to call on more players from the diaspora.

The Mauritanian football association (FFRIM) is one shining example of the success of the initiative, with facilities in the capital, Nouakchott, where $11.1m in FIFA Forward funds have been used to radically revamp and develop football infrastructure.

The FFRIM building is one of several projects funded, as is the Sheikha Boidiya stadium. Originally built in the 1960s, the 5,000-capacity venue has undergone a major facelift, with a new synthetic playing surface being laid and off-the-pitch facilities such as dressing rooms, also being renovated.

The effect on the national team’s performance has been apparent: Mauritania have qualified for three consecutive AFCON tournaments on the trot, and not only scored their first AFCON goal from open play in this edition but recorded their first win and reached the knockout rounds for the first time, eliminating Algeria in the process.

The Lions of Chinguetti may not have made the last eight, but Cape Verde did, and have done so playing some of the best football in the tournament. Their success stems from similar roots, however.

Back in July 2022, a FIFA delegation completed a four-day visit to Cape Verde, during which it unveiled facilities such as new artificial pitches and the refurbished academy and headquarters of the Cape Verdean Football Association (FCF), all funded by the same programme.

“Countries like Mauritania and Cape Verde book spots in the knockout stage of AFCON, but some of their growth and successes are intentional and come from their federations’ ability to use funds from FIFA forward to develop facilities, pitches and improve the local games,” Gelson Fernandes, FIFA director of member associations-Africa, tells Al Jazeera.

At the next World Cup being hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico, the continent will have a minimum of nine slots for the first time. The qualification series for the mundial kicked off in October, and the likes of Rwanda and Comoros sit atop their respective qualifying groups after two matches.

If their performances – like those of the underdogs at AFCON 2023 – are anything to go by, a continental awakening may be under way, led by a change of the old guard. Football officials, like the fans, seem enthused by the prospect of the entertaining football that the increased competition will bring.

“Successes on the pitch and growth off it can only impact African teams and the 2026 World Cup will give African countries the opportunity to show what they are capable of,” Fernandes predicts.

" El loco" Marcelo Bielsa reprend du service, et pas n'importe où !

L'entraîneur légendaire argentin Marcelo Bielsa, connu sous le surnom "El Loco", est sur le point de reprendre du service sur un banc, près de 18 mois après son départ de Leeds United. Un temps annoncé à la tête de plusieurs clubs, c'est désormais avec une sélection sud américaine qu'il compte rebondir. Marcelo Bielsa toujours titré en sélection ! Le technicien argentin est célèbre pour sa philosophie de jeu unique et sa personnalité charismatique. Bielsa est en pourparlers pour devenir le nouvel entraîneur de l'équipe nationale d'Uruguay, selon des sources proches de la situation. Cette nouvelle a été confirmée par la Fédération uruguayenne de football. Ignacio Alonso a déclaré que les pourparlers ont abouti à un accord verbal, en attente de la signature du contrat. Lire aussi : - La liste impressionnante des entraineurs disponibles ! Bielsa, qui a entraîné l'Argentine et le Chili dans le passé, a l'intention de mener l'Uruguay à la Coupe du monde 2026. Ce qui constitue un objectif ambitieux pour l'homme de 66 ans. Son expérience en tant que sélectionneur a été plutôt réussie, puisqu'il a mené l'Argentine à une médaille d'or olympique en 2004 et a conduit le Chili à sa première victoire en Copa America en 2015. Le poste de sélectionneur de l'Uruguay était vacant depuis l'élimination de l'équipe en phase de groupes de la Coupe du monde 2022, et les dirigeants de la fédération cherchaient un successeur compétent pour relever le défi. Bielsa a été choisi en raison de son expérience et de sa réputation de mener des équipes à des niveaux de performance élevés, même dans des conditions difficiles. https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1656780274720440322 L'Uruguay mise sur l'expérience d'El Loco Si Bielsa est confirmé dans le poste, il sera seulement le deuxième entraîneur non-uruguayen de l'histoire de l'équipe nationale, après Daniel Passarella, qui a dirigé l'équipe entre 1999 et 2001. Cela témoigne de l'importance accordée à la culture et à l'identité uruguayennes dans le football, mais aussi de la confiance des dirigeants dans les capacités de Bielsa à s'adapter à un nouvel environnement et à réussir. Voir également : - Mercato du Bayern : Qui sont les 5 talents sud-américains pistés ? Bien que Bielsa soit connu pour sa personnalité excentrique et son approche radicale, il est également très respecté dans le monde du football pour sa connaissance approfondie du jeu et sa compétence à transmettre sa vision à ses joueurs. Sa réputation de "maître tacticien" est bien méritée, car il a réussi à transformer des équipes médiocres en machines de football efficaces grâce à son travail acharné et à son dévouement. L'Uruguay aura besoin de toute l'expertise de Bielsa pour relever le défi qui l'attend dans les années à venir. La compétition en Amérique du Sud est féroce, avec des équipes comme le Brésil, l'Argentine et le Chili qui rivalisent pour les premières places dans les tournois majeurs. Bielsa a déjà montré qu'il est capable de relever les défis les plus difficiles, et ses joueurs peuvent être sûrs qu'il les guidera avec sagesse et détermination.

Three-Time World Cup Champion Pelé Dead at 82

— Ian DeMartino | Sputnik International | December 29, 2022

Pelé, a three-time World Cup winner and widely considered one of football's greatest players, died on Thursday in Sao Paulo, Brazil. He was 82 years old.

Manager Joe Fraga has confirmed the football legend died while in hospital. Pelé had recently been readmitted to Sao Paulo's Albert Einstein hospital amid failing health related to a previous colon cancer diagnosis.

"Everything we have is thanks to you. We love you endlessly. Rest in peace," Kelly Nascimento, Pelé's eldest daughter, said on social media on Thursday.

Days before Christmas, the Santos FC star received a medical report that he needed care for cardiac and renal dysfunction. After that diagnosis, his family members gathered at the Albert Einstein Israelita Hospital in Sao Paulo and posted pictures of their bedside vigil on social media.

On November 30, Pelé had to undergo non-elective surgery for for general swelling of the body and heart failure. Soon after, it was reported that the football legend had stopped responding to chemotherapy and started receiving palliative care. He never left the hospital after being admitted in November. He had been battling colon cancer since September 2021.

Pelé, given name Edson Arantes do Nascimento, started his career with Santos FC at the age of 15 and by 17, he had become a worldwide star after helping the Brazilian national team win the 1958 World Cup.

Pelé won three World Cups during his 20-year career, in 1958, 1962 and 1970. He remains the only player in the history of the sport to achieve that feat.

Beyond his World Cup Wins, Pelé was also named the FIFA player of the Century and the World Player of the Century. During his career he also won two Copa Libertadores titles, South America's highest level of football competition, and two Intercontinental Cup titles, a competition including both South America and Europe that ran from 1960 to 2004.

The number of total goals scored by Pelé over his career is a matter of debate. Officially, the Brazilian icon scored 757 goals across 831 games, however Santos FC claims the total was closer to 1,000 goals. The official tally gives him the third most goals all time, behind only Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. The Santos tally would make Pelé the prolific football scorer of all time.

Pelé is survived by his wife Marcia Aoki and six children, one of Pele's children, who he never accepted as his daughter, died in 2006.

Goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert

Goalkeeper Jose Luis Chilavert

a former Paraguayan football player When I was a player, I was a goalkeeper. Among the goalkeepers, he made a reputation as an unrivaled scoring player.

Chilavert, who made his debut at Sportivo Rouge에서o, will move to Real Zaragoza after performing well in Guarani and San Lorenzo. However, Chilavert failed to win the starting position at Zaragoza and moved to Bellez Sarsfield. At Bellez Sarsfield, Chilabert won the Klausura League in 1993 and won the team's first title in 25 years, and won the Copa Libertadores title in 1994 by beating Sao Paulo FC, a powerhouse that dominated world football beyond South America. And he won the Intercontinental Cup with a 2–0 victory over AC Milan.

Chillabert was named IFFHS's Best Goalkeeper in 1995, 1997 and 1998, and was awarded the South American Player of the Year in 1996. In particular, he scored a hat trick for the first time in goalkeeper history by scoring all three penalties against Ferro Carrill Oeste in 1999.

In 2000, Chillabert moved to R.C. Strasbourg Alsace, where he won the Coupe de France title in 2001, and in 2003, Chillabert returned to Belés and announced his retirement in 2004.

Chillabert, who led Paraguay to the 1998 World Cup finals in France, led the team to a clean sheet against Bulgaria and Spain, and defeated Nigeria 3–1 to advance to the round of 16.

Since then, he has played a tremendous role against France, which he met in the round of 16, blocking France's offensive. Unfortunately, however, Laurent Blanc scored a golden goal for the first time in World Cup history after a bloody overtime battle, losing and suffering from elimination.

In 1999, Copa America was held in its own country, but it will be announced that it will not attend as described later.

After that, Chilavert, who played for the national team, spat at Carlos during a dispute with Roberto Carlos in the South American qualifying round for the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup, and Chilavert was suspended for four games. Anyway, he played in the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup and led the team to the round of 16, met Germany led by Miroslav Klose-Michael Ballack-Oliver Khan, and allowed Oliver Nerville the winning goal in the 88th minute of the second half, losing 0-1. In this game, he took part in the attack and shot, but Oliver Kahn blocked it well. He later announced his retirement from the national team in 2003.

In addition, he made three appearances for Copa America, but did not perform well, but in 1997 Copa America, he went through the group stage and advanced to the tournament, but lost to Ronaldo-led Brazil. 메이저사이트

He is a goalkeeper with excellent reflexes, saving skills, and good judgment, and he is a goalkeeper who actively plays in a one-on-one situation and shows excellent ability to restrain strikers. And as mentioned above, he often scored goals as a free kicker and PK kicker because of his good kick. It's a style that's close to the original of the sweeper keeper that Manuel Neuer established
