He was born far from the stadium lights in a refugee camp in Tanzania, to a family escaping war from Burundi. No academies, no guarantees, just a kid growing up in Adelaide with a heavy left foot and bigger dreams than his surroundings. Nestory Irankunda didn’t come through a smooth path. He came through struggle, street football and raw belief. Now he’s wearing the green and gold of Australia and in this World Cup moment, he’s just scored against Turkey. From a refugee camp… to deciding games on the biggest stage. That’s not just a goal but that’s a life story breaking through in real time. 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐛𝐚𝐥𝐥. 𝐀𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬. 𝐇𝐚𝐬. 𝐀. 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲. ✨ #worldcupwithmicky #fifaworldcup #australia

2010 world cup I was a Spain fan then broke up with them over the Fabregas theatrics.I think because of their anti genocide and anti Iran war stance I will support Spain again but first always is All the African teams including Morocco.

History is never meant to be discarded for immediacy. Beautiful gesture.
Reprezentacja Haiti na oficjalnych koszulkach w których zagra na Mistrzostwach Świata umieściła POLSKĄ FLAGĘ! To nie błąd projektanta ani przypadek – to wyjątkowy gest pełen szacunku, który porusza serce każdego Polaka. W 1802 roku Napoleon wysłał kilka tysięcy żołnierzy z Polskich Legionów na San Domingo (obecne Haiti), żeby zdławić tamtejsze powstanie niewolników. Polacy jednak wybrali inną drogę. Zamiast walczyć przeciwko walczącym o wolność, wielu z nich przeszło na stronę powstańców i stanęło do walki ramię w ramię z Haitańczykami przeciwko wojskom francuskim. Po zwycięstwie rewolucji i ogłoszeniu niepodległości w 1804 roku, pierwszy przywódca Haiti – Jean-Jacques Dessalines – oddał Polakom wielki hołd. Przyznał im pełne obywatelstwo, a w konstytucji nazwał ich „Białymi Murzynami Europy”. Były to słowa najwyższego uznania i braterstwa w tamtych czasach. Część polskich żołnierzy (ok. 400–500) została na wyspie na stałe, głównie w regionie Cazale, gdzie ich potomkowie mieszkają do dzisiaj. Dziś, ponad dwieście lat później, pamięć o polskiej odwadze i solidarności wciąż żyje na Haiti. Kiedy ich piłkarze wychodzą na murawę, niosą na piersi symbol naszej wspólnej historii – historii walki o wolność, która nie zna granic ani koloru skóry.

The Senegalese 🇸🇳 delegation gets this treatment on arrival in the USA. Full tarmac searches, shoes off, bags turned inside out like criminals. This is straight up humiliation and a disgrace. They’d never put white boys through the same.

The first Africans to compete in the Olympic Games were two South Africans, Jan Mashiane and Len Taunyane, who competed in the Marathon at the 1904 St. Louis Olympics. Their participation in the infamous 1904 St. Louis Olympic Marathon is one of the most fascinating and bizarre chapters in sports history. Neither man traveled to the United States as an official Olympic athlete. They were in Missouri as part of the Boer War Spectacle at the World's Fair, which ran concurrently with the Games. They had previously served as dispatch runners during the Anglo-Boer War. They decided to enter the marathon on a whim just before the race began. Because officials struggled with their surnames, they were listed on the program as "LenTau" and "Yamasani". Taunyane was actually on pace for a much higher finish but was chased nearly a mile off-course by a pack of aggressive, wild dogs. Despite the canine detour and brutal conditions that caused 18 out of 32 runners to drop out, both South Africans finished the race. Taunyane finished 9th and Mashiane finished 12th.

A 24-year-old Polish tennis player arrived in Paris last week ranked 114th in the world, with no sponsors, no guaranteed income, and no certainty she could even pay for her hotel room. She had to win three qualifying matches just to enter the French Open main draw. Prize money is only paid at the end of the tournament, so a Polish sports drink brand quietly stepped in and covered her hotel bill. Her name is Maja Chwalinska. And today, she plays in the French Open final. Before this tournament, she had won exactly one Grand Slam main draw match in her entire career. She had battled depression so severe that in 2021 she couldn't get out of bed. She underwent knee surgery in 2022. She spent years grinding through small tournaments across Europe just to stay afloat. Then she arrived in Paris, won three qualifiers, and kept winning. Zheng Qinwen. Elise Mertens. Maria Sakkari. Diana Shnaider. Nine straight matches. One set dropped. She is now the first qualifier in French Open history to reach the final. The last time a qualifier reached a Grand Slam final, it was Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open. Raducanu won. By simply making the final, Chwalinska has earned more prize money than her entire career combined. The runner-up cheque alone is $1.6 million. If she wins today, she takes home $3.25 million. One week ago she couldn't pay for her hotel room.

For the sake of your children, who each morning must wake up and go to school, stop insulting education. Somehow you have grown accustomed to insulting education as a way to make your arguments. Very tragic culture I must say! There is no pride in being an ignorant people! You can perfectly disagree with anyone without insulting education. Why would you want to breed an education hating nation? Unless of course, you are working with those who have benefited for centuries out of keeping Africans ignorant! #MakingEducationFashionable

Our Uber Eats & Checkers Sixty60 now takes longer to arrive. Foreigners are scared to go to work. It means there’s a gap. It’s your turn to drive that scooter Mchana. The order needs to arrive within 30 minutes. You must get the order to us even when it’s cold, raining, & windy.

Just beautiful the Spirit of Africa
🇲🇽 | Un niño esperó con ilusión la llegada de la Selección de Sudáfrica. Los jugadores respondieron regalándole una camiseta, le firmaron su álbum e hicieron fila para tomarse una foto con él, uno por uno. Un momento increíble que le dejará un recuerdo para toda la vida. 🥹

- هل تحدثت مع لاعبي ارسنال المستدعين للمنتخب ؟ 🗣️ لويس دي لا فوينتي : "ميرينو وصل أمس و هو يتدرب معنا بالفعل اما رايا و زوبيمندي فسينضمان هذا المساء. بصراحة، انا اتمنى لو خسرت 15 نهائيًا لدوري أبطال أوروبا! هل تدركون اصلاً معنى ان تصل الى نهائي دوري الابطال ؟ يجب ان يشعروا بفخر هائل بما حققوه، انا فخور جدًا بهم. لقد توجوا ابطالاً للدوري و وصلوا نهائي دوري الابطال لذلك انا اعلم انهم يملكون كل الاسباب ليشعروا بالفخر بما انجزوه وبما لايزال بإمكانهم تحقيقه مستقبلاً. الان سنرى ان كان بإمكاننا مساعدتهم على تجاوز خيبة الامل هذه خلال كاس العالم."
