🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: The whistleblower who exposed the Manchester City situation says there is MORE.
The hacker, Rui Pinto, is now in witness protection. He claims he has even more information.

Back in 2014, there was a man who was already aware of the irregularities involving Manchester City. That man now runs FIFA. The infamous Gianni Infantino, then UEFA General Secretary, abused his authority, shared confidential documents and, in short, outmanoeuvred the Investigatory Chamber, doing everything in his power to ensure that both Manchester City and PSG would merely receive a fine, avoiding a deeper investigation that could have led to a Champions League ban. All of these details were also revealed through Football Leaks.
Given his actions as UEFA General Secretary and, more recently, as FIFA President, I can only say, in my humble opinion, that Gianni Infantino has become a cancer on football and should have no place in the future of the game.

En favoritkategori: ”Football does not belong to investors” dundrar politiker i länder där varje enskild klubb ägs av investerare.
Let me say this very directly.
Football does not belong to investors. It belongs to the people who fill the stands and who stand on the touchline week in, week out, rain or shine.
The World Cup is not a product. It is the greatest competition in world sport, and it was never anyone's to sell. Dress the deal up however you like. Once you have sold a piece of it, you have sold out.
Football belongs to the fans. It always has, and it always will.

Spain have won two World Cups and three European Championships since 2008. Spanish teams have won nine Champions Leagues and nine Europa Leagues in that time. Spanish coaches won the Champions League, Europa League, Ligue 1 and Premier League last season. Total dominance.
Would be crime against humanity if this argentina won the world cup. Relieved that Spain gave them a lecture. Dont cry for me infantiiinaa

🚨 AHMED HASSAN: “EVERY TIME ARGENTINA ARE INVOLVED, THERE IS ALWAYS A QUESTION”
🗣️ “Nobody is questioning Argentina’s quality. They have world-class players and a proud football history.
But there is a reason so many supporters around the world are frustrated tonight.
Every time a controversial decision happens in a match involving Argentina, people are told to move on and accept it. Eventually fans become tired of hearing the same explanations.
Egypt scored a goal that would have put them in a commanding position. It was ruled out after VAR intervention.
Egypt believed they should have had a penalty before Argentina scored the decisive goal. There was no review that satisfied supporters.
Then Argentina complete the comeback and suddenly all discussion becomes about their resilience rather than the controversial moments that shaped the result.
Football cannot survive on reputation. A nation should not receive the benefit of the doubt because of its history, its stars or its commercial value.
The same laws should apply to everyone.
If Egypt had committed the same incidents that Argentina were accused of, do you honestly believe the outcome would have been identical? That is the question millions of people are asking tonight.”

Mehdi Hasan has spent more time and effort belittling and taking swipes at Iranian diaspora and Iranians that called for freedom, as is their right to do, than criticizing their criminal government that slaughtered their loved ones, squandered their resources, mismanaged their country and its wealth, funds proxy terrorists militias in other countries that terrorize and destabilize the region, slaughtered countless Arabs and Muslims over decades, and is now terrorizing its Gulf neighbors. And he isn’t alone.
