EKITANGAZA KYA WEEKEND ONLINE TIPS AND PREDICTIONS

21^st, 22^nd and 23^rd APRIL

Arsenal Vs Southampton (1) Friday

After 2 consistent draws, Arsenal are now just 4 points with a game more ahead of Man City. I do see them using all possible ways to grab the 3 points in this fixture given they are the hosts. Southampton have not won a game from their last 5 fixtures

Angers Vs PSG (2) Friday

PSG are 8 points clear at the top and we have seen them regain their winning form after a few sloppy performances. PSG have won 5/5 last H2H meetings with Angers

Leicester Vs Wolves (1X) Saturday

Leicester are 19^th placed and all they are fighting for is to avoid relegation. Being home at King Power stadium, I do expect a hostile environment for the guest and the best they will get is a draw from this fixture

Liverpool Vs Nottingham (1) Saturday

After thumping Leeds 6:1, Liverpool are still 8^th placed and if they are to have any chances of Champions league football next season, they have to push for a win in each of their remaining fixture. Sure win at home

Mainz Vs Bayern (2) Saturday

With just 2 points ahead of Dortmund, I do see Bayern pushing for 3 points in this fixture as the race to this seasons triumph continues. Bayern at odd 1.60, Its worth a risk when they need to stretch their log lead

Dortmund Vs Frankfurt (O2.5) Saturday

Dortmundjust 2 points behind Bayern does not want to lose any points if they are to have any chance sof winning the league. Frankfurt 7^th placed wants to qualify for champions league next season with 8 points behind top 4. Expect an end to end game with plenty of goals from either side. 4/5 last H2H have seen O2.5

Real Madrid Vs Celta Vigo (HC 1) Saturday

With 9 points behind Barcelona on top of the league, Real Madrid will try as much as possible to create more hope of reclaiming the league however hard it looks. Madrid have won 5/5 last H2H meetings with Celta and being at the Bernabeu today, expect a confortable win for the hosts.

Newcastle Vs Tottenham (Yes & O2.5) Sunday

Newcastle 4^th place host Tottenham 5^th placed with 3 points separating the two as the race for top 4 continues. 5/5 last H2H meetings have seen both teams scoring and 4 of those made O2.5.

Expect a forward going game approach from either side.

Brighton Vs Manchester United (Yes) Sunday

Here we come at Wembley in the semifinal of FA Cup as united looks set to proceed to their second final of the season. 2 exciting sides this season meet at a neutral ground but of course Man United has a pedigree as they have played more games at Wembley than Brighton however no one can ever rule out Brighton this season following their well-coordinated squad. I do not expect Brighton to respect United and this will make us witness a minimum of one goal from each side.

Juventus Vs Napoli (1) Sunday

Napoli have just been knocked out of Champions League by AC Milan and we have all witnessed their high flying form decline to the worst that they have lost twice and drawn once in their last 5 outings. Juventus chasing their UCL dream next season, I do see them fighting hard to come out as victors in this fixture given Napoli’s morale is a bit down following their painful UCL exit.

Top 10 Moments in NBA Playoff History

Basketball fans around the world eagerly await the start of the NBA playoffs each year. This thrilling tournament features the best teams from the regular season battling it out to become champions of the league. While each postseason is special in its own way, there are certain moments that stand out in NBA playoff history as truly iconic. From buzzer-beaters to clutch performances, let’s take a look at the top 15 moments in NBA playoff history.

The Shot – 1989

Michael Jordan’s career is filled with memorable moments, but perhaps none is more legendary than “The Shot” in the 1989 playoffs. With the Chicago Bulls tied with the Cleveland Cavaliers in the final seconds of Game 5, Jordan hit a game-winning jumper over Craig Ehlo to clinch the series.

The Flu Game – 1997

In Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals, Michael Jordan played through a severe case of the flu to lead the Chicago Bulls to victory over the Utah Jazz. Despite being visibly weakened, Jordan scored 38 points and hit the game-winning three-pointer in the final minute.

The Block – 2016

In Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals, the Cleveland Cavaliers and Golden State Warriors were tied in the final minutes. With the Warriors threatening to take the lead, LeBron James made a spectacular block on Andre Iguodala’s layup to preserve the tie. The Cavaliers went on to win the game and the championship.

The Steal – 1987

With the Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons tied in Game 5 of the 1987 Eastern Conference Finals, Larry Bird made a crucial steal and assist to give the Celtics a two-point lead. The play helped propel Boston to a series-clinching win and a trip to the NBA Finals.

The Dunk – 1991

Michael Jordan’s high-flying acrobatics were on full display in the 1991 NBA Finals. In Game 2 against the Los Angeles Lakers, Jordan soared past multiple defenders to throw down a spectacular dunk that has since become known simply as “The Dunk.”

The Shot II – 1993

Four years after “The Shot,” Michael Jordan once again hit a game-winning jumper in the playoffs. In Game 4 of the 1993 NBA Finals, Jordan scored over Bryon Russell to give the Chicago Bulls a 3-1 series lead over the Utah Jazz.

The Memorial Day Miracle – 1995

In Game 1 of the 1995 Western Conference Finals, the Houston Rockets were down by as many as 20 points to the Phoenix Suns. The Rockets, however, pulled off a remarkable fourth-quarter comeback under the leadership of Hakeem Olajuwon, which led to an unlikely victory that has since come to be known as the “Memorial Day Miracle.”

The Shot III – 1998

In the final seconds of Game 6 of the 1998 NBA Finals, Michael Jordan hit a game-winning shot over Utah Jazz defender Bryon Russell to secure the championship for the Chicago Bulls. The play has become known as “The Last Shot” and is widely considered one of the greatest moments in NBA history.

The “Iceman” Cometh – 1978

In Game 7 of the 1978 Eastern Conference Finals, the Washington Bullets were leading the San Antonio Spurs by one point in the final seconds. However, Spurs guard George Gervin had a chance to win the game with a free throw. After missing the shot, Gervin redeemed himself by hitting a game-winning jumper that has since become known as “The Iceman Cometh.”

The Miracle of Richfield – 1976

In the 1976 Eastern Conference Finals, the Cleveland Cavaliers pulled off a stunning upset of the Boston Celtics, who had won the previous two NBA championships. The Cavaliers won Game 4 in double overtime thanks to guard Austin Carr’s 20 points in the fourth quarter, clinching the series victory.

Ballon d'Or Dream Team: The Complete Lineup and Players

The world’s best football player receives the highly coveted Ballon d’Or award every year from France Football magazine. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, which interrupted and postponed several championships, France Football compiled the Top 11 Ballon d’Or all-time list in 2020.

Not all of the eleven players won the prize, but they were nonetheless on the voters list (except Maradona and Pele, who, when they were footballers, could not be voted for, as they were South Americans). Let’s see in detail the dream formation of the Ballon d’Or dream team.

Player	Position	Country
Lev Yashin	Goalkeeper	Soviet Union
Cafu	Right back	Brazil
Franz Beckenbauer	Central Defender	West Germany
Lothar Matthaeus	Central Defender	West Germany
Paolo Maldini	Left back	Italy
Xavi	Defensive midfielder	Spain
Pele	Offensive midfielder	Brazil
Maradona	Offensive midfielder	Argentina
Lionel Messi	Right wing	Argentina
Ronaldo	Center forward	Brazil
Cristiano Ronaldo	Left wing	Portugal

Cafu, a Brazilian fullback, captained the World Cup in 2002 and had previously won the World Cup in 1994. He also played for Rome and Milan, where he won numerous titles.

Beckenbauer, a former German national team player and coach, is remembered as one of the best free-throw shooters of all time. He won the 1974 World Cup with the German national team and three consecutive European Cups between 1974 and 1976 with Bayern.

4. Central Defense: Lothar Matthaeus

Matthaeus started his career as a full-field midfielder but was later converted to a central defender. He won the record Scudetto with Trapattoni’s Inter in the 1988–89 season and the 1990 World Cup with the German national team.

5. Left back: Paolo Maldini

Paolo Maldini, an Italian player, was the leader of Milan and the Italian national team. He played as a wing defender and center back and won numerous titles, including five European Cups with Milan.

7. Offensive midfielder: Pele

Pele was a Brazilian player and is widely considered one of the best footballers in history. He won three world titles with the Brazilian national team and played for Santos, where he became an absolute leader.

8. Offensive midfielder: Diego Armando Maradona

Maradona was an Argentine player who led his national team to victory in the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. He also won two league titles and the UEFA Cup with Napoli.

9. Right wing: Lionel Messi

Lionel Messi is the only player to have won the Ballon d’Or award seven times. He was the leader of Barcelona, winning numerous titles with the club, and led Argentina to victory in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

10. Center forward: Ronaldo

Called “Ronaldo the Phenomenon” to differentiate him from Cristiano Ronaldo, the Brazilian was the best player in the world in the late 1990s.

Conditioned then by injuries that affected his career, Ronaldo still won the World Cup in 2002 thanks to his brace in the final against Germany and was the absolute protagonist in the jerseys of Barcelona, Inter, and Real Madrid.

11. Left wing: Cristiano Ronaldo

Winner of 5 Golden Balls and always fighting with Messi for the title of best in the world.

CR7 has always been the protagonist in the shirts of Manchester United and Real Madrid, and in the three seasons, he played with Juve. He dragged his national team to a European triumph in 2006, and after the World Cup, he played as a protagonist in Qatar before leaving Europe to go and play in Saudi Arabia, where he continues to score goals.

History A Brief Story of AFCON

The Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) is the biggest football tournament in Africa. The tournament has a rich history dating back to 1957, when the first edition was held in Sudan. Since then, it has grown in popularity and now attracts millions of fans from all over the continent and beyond.

One of the key aspects of AFCON is the qualification process. This is where national teams from across Africa compete for a chance to play in the tournament proper. The AFCON qualifiers are a grueling process, but they help to ensure that the best teams make it to the main event.

The AFCON qualifiers take place over a period of two years, with the first round of matches usually played in June of the year before the tournament is scheduled to take place. The format of the qualifiers varies from one edition to the next, but in general, teams are grouped together and play each other home and away.

The number of teams that qualify for the AFCON varies, but in recent years, it has been 24. This means that the top two teams from each group, as well as the four best third-place teams, qualify for the tournament.

The AFCON qualifiers are not just about determining which teams make it to the tournament proper; they also provide a platform for up-and-coming players to showcase their skills. For many players, the AFCON qualifiers are their first taste of international football, and they will be hoping to make a name for themselves and catch the eye of scouts from top clubs around the world.

History of AFCON

The history of the AFCON is a rich one, with many great moments and memorable matches. From Cameroon’s dramatic win in 1988 to Egypt’s record-setting three straight titles, the tournament has given us some of the best moments in the history of African football.

One of the most famous moments in the history of the tournament came in 1996, when South Africa hosted the event for the first time since their release from apartheid. The team, which had been banned from international football for many years, went on to win the tournament, beating Tunisia in the final.

Other great moments in the history of the AFCON include Cameroon’s dramatic victory in the 1988 final against Nigeria, which saw them come back from two goals down to win 4-3, and Egypt’s record-breaking three consecutive titles in 2006, 2008, and 2010.

But AFCON is not just about the big moments; it is also about the passion and energy that African football brings. From the colorful fanfare to the rhythmic drumming, the tournament is a celebration of African culture and heritage. With the AFCON qualifiers currently underway, there is still a lot to play for. Some of the biggest names in African football, including Senegal, Nigeria, and the Ivory Coast, are all vying for a place in the tournament proper. But there are also plenty of up-and-coming teams that will be looking to cause an upset and make a name for themselves.

One of the key factors that will determine which teams make it to AFCON 2022 is the quality of their players. Some of the best football players in history have come from Africa. These players include Samuel Eto’o, Didier Drogba, and George Weah.

But the quality of African football goes beyond just individual players. The teams that have been successful in the past have been those that have been able to work together as a unit and play to their strengths. Whether it is the speed and skill of the West African teams or the physicality and organization of the North African teams, each team has its own unique style and approach.

In conclusion, the AFCON qualifiers provide a fascinating insight into African football and the passion and energy that it brings. With the next edition of the tournament just around the corner, there is a lot to look forward to for fans of African football.

Curious European Cups curiosities explained

Curious European Cups curiosities explained

The European continent plays host to a number of the world’s most important football competitions. The UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Europa League, and the UEFA Super Cup are the football tournaments that people in Europe watch and go to the most. Millions of viewers from all over the world tune in each year to watch these competitions, and nothing else can match the level of excitement and thrill they provide.

But who exactly is the most popular phenomenon in these competitions? What is it about them that makes them stand out? In this article, we will investigate the odd European Cup occurrences and explain why they have become a cultural phenomenon.

1.Pedro is a serial winner

Most of the matches are played at night, and sometimes the continental competitions even take the field in the afternoon, but over the years there have still been many other players who have particularly distinguished themselves when it came to playing the European cups.

An example above all? Pedro. When the matches get important, the Lazio footballer never fails to sign his name.

In the semi-finals and finals, he played and scored nine times, including goals in the 2011 Champions League final and the 2015 European Super Cup with Barcelona, as well as one in the last act of the 2019 Europa League when he played with Arsenal.

Another who has written great pages of his career in cups is Simone Inzaghi. Before Ciro Immobile caught up to him, the current Inter coach was Lazio’s leading scorer in European competitions.

“Simoncino” was a hard worker who never stopped scoring in the Champions League and the UEFA Cup. His poker at Olympique Marseille was a memorable moment, and he finished his time with the Biancoceleste with 20 European goals.

2.The stars of the moment

The first is certainly Erling Braut Haaland, the goal machine. Of course, one could argue that the Norwegian actually scores at any time and in any competition, but his relationship with the Champions League is something special.

In fact, it was his continental performances with the Salzburg shirt that launched the center forward among the stars of world football, when in just 6 group games he scored 8 times.

Haaland also did very well in the Champions League with Borussia Dortmund, becoming the competition’s top scorer in the 2020/21 season despite his team’s exit in the quarterfinals.

And even with the Manchester City shirt, the cyborg managed to maintain his crazy average, which speaks of more goals scored in the competition than games played. But Haaland is not the only player on Guardiola’s team who boosts himself on European nights.

If in the last few years the Citizens have often come close to playing for the Champions League, they often have to thank Riyad Mahrez. In the 2020/21 season, when the English team played in the final, the Algerian led the team to both the quarter-finals and above all in the semi-final against PSG, scoring three of City’s four goals in the double-header.

Last season, Mahrez scored 7 goals, and also in the current season, he was fundamental in the group stage for his home club at the Etihad.

3.Vinicius Junior always scores in the Champions League

It would then be impossible not to think about Real Madrid and the one who decided the last Champions League, or Vinicius Junior. The Brazilian from Los Blancos has established himself more and more in Ancelotti’s rotations, and in the 2022–23 season, he confirmed himself as a man of the cup, consistently scoring both in the group stage and in the knockout stages.

In particular, Vinicius has made Liverpool a target: in the last three years, the Reds have let him score five goals in four games, including the goal that also decided the final in Paris…

Next to Vini, there is also Rodrygo, another who gets excited if he sees the Champions League. In fact, there are more goals for him in Europe than in La Liga with Real, including the two that last season allowed Los Blancos to reach the final, beating Manchester City in extra time.

4.The specialist technicians at international cups

And among the coaches? Who has a particular relationship with the cups? Certainly Carlo Ancelotti, who is the only one to have won the big-eared cup four times and who always gives his best at gala evenings.

Then there would be Josè Mourinho, the only one who can say he has won all three current UEFA competitions, having done so with four clubs and never losing a final. The only thing missing from the Portuguese is the Cup Winners’ Cup, which however was no longer played when he became coach.

On the other hand, he won it as a second to Robson at Barcelona!

Sir Alex Ferguson should also be included in the list, who in addition to the cups won with Manchester United also boasts a Cup Winners’ Cup won with Aberdeen by beating Real Madrid in the final, which is not exactly something everyone can think of achieving.

And it’s impossible to close this list without mentioning Unai Emery.

His palmares, which include four Europa Leagues (three with Sevilla and one with Villarreal) and a Champions League semi-final with Villareal, demonstrate the Basque coach’s expertise in European competitions. Just to prove that when it’s evening and you play around the Old Continent, few can compete with him…

5.Dortmund Vs Union Berlin (O2.5) Saturday

After losing to Bayern over the weekend, I do see Dortmund fighting hard to win game so as to cling the 2 point gap they have with log leaders Bayern.

Lazio being home, they have more chances of scoring given they have scored in each of their last 4 home games in all competitions

8.Real Madrid Vs Villarreal (1) Saturday

Real Madrid are currently 2^nd placed with 12 points behind Barcelona as the league proceeds, I see them fighting to win all their remaining games if at all they are to have any chance of defending the league trophy

Liverpool have really had one of their worst seasons in the past 5 years with around 10 games to the end of the season. Arsenal are chasing silverware of the league after 17 years without winning it. Liverpool is trying hard to qualify for Champions league too however hard it may look. Basing on the above, I do see both sides scoring at least a goal in this fixture with a minimum of 3 goals in the entire game.

10.Rayo Vallecano Vs Atletico Madrid (U2.5) Sunday

All you first think of when they meet is an Under 2.5 goals cause both sides are so reserved in their game approach. 6/6 last H2H meetings between the 2 sides have seen not more than 2 goals

EKITANGAZA KYA WEEKEND ONLINE TIPS, PREDICTIONS WITH AND GAME PREVIEW 31st March, 1st & 2nd April 2023

TOP LEAGUES RETURN AS TITANS SEEK FOR TRIUMPH AND TOP SPOTS THIS SEASON

Frankfurt Vs Bochum (O2.5) Friday

Frankfurt currently 6^th placed have not won a game in their last 4 league games as they still seek to try secure a Champions league spot. The hosts are currently 6 points from the top 4 and here comes a 14^th placed Bochum that have won their last 2 games in attempt to survive relegation. I do see an end to end game with a minimum of 3 goals as both sides are hungry for victory to revive their season. 2/3 of their last H2H Bundesliga meetings have seen O2.5 with the under still seeing at least 2 goals

Manchester City Vs Liverpool (O2.5) Saturday

Currently 2^nd placed with 8 points behind log leaders Arsenal, I do see Man City giving their whole to win this game at Etihad however it be won’t be an easy one as we have all witnessed how Liverpool turns up against top sides however formless they are. Liverpool is fighting to cling their gap with the top 4 for a UCL spot next season. I do see a 2:1 or 2:2 since both sides can easily concede whenever they meet. 8/10 of their last H2H meetings in all competitions have seen O2.5 and 8/10 still seeing both teams score. Tugende ne Over ya golo esaatu ejja kukwatayo

Arsenal Vs Leeds (1&O1.5) Saturday

Truth be told, whether you like it or not, Arsenal are seemingly unstoppable this season moreover playing at the Emirates. I do not see Leeds United stop them from attaining the 3 points. All bookmakers favor them Leeds who have lost all their last 5 H2H matches with Arsenal in all competitions. 4/5 last H2H saw a minimum of 2 goals scored. Arsenal ajjakukakuba akajemu nengoye

Chelsea Vs Aston Villa (Total Booking 4.5 Under) Saturday

With a whole bunch of players bought in the January transfer, Chelsea are still 10^th struggling revive their season. Aston Villa are currently 11^th with equal points (38) and a 5 goal variance. Both sides hardly get bookings when they meet and this is witnessed as 3/3 last H2H in all competitions have not seen more than 4 bookings

Bayern Munich Vs Dortmund (O3.5) Saturday

What a game this is going to be! A game that comes at a crucial moment as Dortmund lead the log with a point following Bayern’s loss to Bayer Leverkusen before the International break. The 2 are the giants of Germany and at Allianz Arena today I do see a minimum of 4 goals as 7/7 of their last H2H in all competitions have seen Over 4.5

Inter Milan Vs Fiorentina (Yes) Saturday

Fiorentina have won all their last 7 games in all competitions seeing them move to 9^th position however Inter Milan have lost their last 2 league games this scaring them to a poor finish to the season without champions league football since Roma and Atalanta are pushing harder. 4/5 of their last H2H in all competitions have seen both sides scoring.

Elche Vs Barcelona (2&No GG) Saturday

Barcelona are currently leading the league and here comes 20^th placed Elche who have only won once from their last 6 fixtures. Barcelona have won 5/5 last H2H with Elche 3 of the games not seeing both teams score

Manchester United Vs Newcastle (Yes) Sunday

What a fixture at a crucial moment when 2 sides fighting hard to secure Champions league football meet. 3^rd and 5^th respectively, placed with just 3 points separating the two, I do anticipate an open end to end game approach from these sides as both will aim for maximum points. I see a goal from each side and 5/6 last H2H have seen both teams score.

Napoli Vs AC Milan (1) Sunday

Napoli are comfortably leading the race to Scudetto with a margin of 19 points from 2^nd placed Lazio. You would say they won’t put in much effort due to the big margin but everyonein Italy knows how big this fixture is. Napoli will want to prove to AC Milan that they are not big anymore with Victor Osimehn recently lamenting that “He fights hard to score in each game so as to earn something for African youths who stake on him to score”

Lech Poznan Vs Pogon Szczcin (U2.5) Sunday

Small as it is you may think elsewhere but what a big game in Poland as 2 giants this season meet at Stadion Miejski in Poznan. Lech is currently 4^th placed as Pogon sits 4^th on the log with just 3 points separating them.

Five Mind-Blowing Sports Records That Will Never Be Broken

In the world of sports, breaking records is a common goal for athletes, teams, and fans alike. Records are a way of measuring excellence and setting new benchmarks for future generations to strive for. However, some sports records are so astounding that they seem impossible to beat. These five sports records are not just impressive; they are so mind-blowing that they will never be broken.

Usain Bolt’s 100- and 200-meter world records

Usain Bolt is one of the greatest sprinters of all time, and his world records in the 100 and 200 meters are simply remarkable. In 2009, Bolt ran the 100 meters in 9.58 seconds and the 200 meters in 19.19 seconds, both at the World Championships in Berlin. These times are so fast that no one has come close to beating them since. To put this in perspective, Bolt’s 100-meter record is nearly a full second faster than the current fastest American, Christian Coleman, who ran it in 9.76 seconds in 2019. Bolt’s records are so impressive that many experts believe they will never be broken.

Joe DiMaggio’s 56-game hitting streak

Joe DiMaggio, an outfielder for the New York Yankees, did something in 1941 that may never be done again in baseball history. DiMaggio hit safely in 56 consecutive games, which is the longest hitting streak in MLB history. To put this in perspective, the next-closest streak is held by Pete Rose, who hit safely in 44 straight games in 1978. DiMaggio’s record has stood for over 80 years and seems unlikely to be broken anytime soon.

Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game

Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game is one of the most famous performances in basketball history. In 1962, Chamberlain scored an incredible 100 points in a single game for the Philadelphia Warriors. This record still stands today, and the closest anyone has come to breaking it is Kobe Bryant’s 81-point game in 2006. Chamberlain’s 100-point game was so impressive that it seems unlikely that anyone will ever come close to matching it.

Wayne Gretzky’s 2,857 career points

Many people think that Wayne Gretzky was the best hockey player of all time, and his record of 2,857 career points shows how great he was. Gretzky scored a staggering 894 goals and 1,963 assists over his 20-year career, which is over 900 points more than the second-highest scorer, Jaromir Jagr. Gretzky’s record seems untouchable, as the highest active scorer, Alex Ovechkin, is still over 1,000 points away from Gretzky’s mark.

Michael Phelps’ 23 Olympic gold medals

Michael Phelps is the most decorated Olympian of all time, with 28 medals in total, 23 of which are gold. Phelps’ dominance in the pool is unrivaled, and his record seems untouchable. The closest any athlete has come to Phelps’ record is gymnast Larisa Latynina, who won 18 medals over three Olympic Games. Phelps’ record is a testament to his incredible skill and dedication, and it is unlikely that anyone will ever surpass it.

In conclusion, these five sports records are not just impressive feats; they are so mind-blowing that they will never be broken. From Usain Bolt’s lightning-fast times to Michael Phelps’s unbeatable dominance in the pool, these records show how talented and hardworking these athletes are. While other records may be broken in the future, these five will remain as testaments.
