Uruguay lost their soul.

What would Uruguay do without Suarez?

Facts:
• They lost 1-3 to Costa Rica
• They lost 0-2 to Colombia

What Suarez did in Uruguay team?

Facts:
• Suarez scored twice to edge England home
• Suarez “bite” Chellini and made his opponent “scared” then Godin scored and sent Italian home

Later, FIFA banned Suarez for 10 international games and 4 months suspension from any games (including Liverpool FC matches in EPL or UCL).

Disclaimer:
After been “secluded myself” for years, I’m daring myself to post football match review, based on my own personal opinion.

Match ONE

The opening game of #FIFAWC2014 had been initiated in Sao Paolo, on 12 June 2014 (13 June 2014 in Jakarta) with a victory of the host nation Brazil over the Balkan contender Croatia. Neither is my fav team.

The score was 3-1. All 4 goals were scored by Brazilian. Marcelo (BRA) “scored” own goal in 11′, Neymar (BRA) 29′ and 71′ (penalty) and Oscar concluded the game with his goal on 90’+1′.

Marcelo (BRA) own goal in 29′ remarked as the first ever the Yellow-Blue team conceded in their history. It was also the first ever own goal that opens the world cup in all edition.

Neymar (BRA) was voted as the Man of the match, who scored twice in this game.

Played with a composition of 4-2-3-1, Brazil with strong World Cup tradition possessed the majority of the game with 58% ball possession.

There were total of 24 shots, 13 of them were on goals, but none of corner kick was given during 90 minutes.

The games was coloured with 4 yellows from total of 26 fouls.

Other match stats [BRA|CRO]
Ball possession 58%|42%
Shots on goal 9|4
Shots 14|10
Fouls committed 5|21
Yellow cards 2|2

New Year

Welcome to 2014

Welcome to 2014

Salaam deares friends,
Today we are enterring the first day in 2014…
Sooo, what’s so special about it?
Personally, I do not taste any specialty from the 1st January every year. For me, 1st January is just another day, Well of curse, it is a red-marked day on calendar 😀
Aanyway, 1st January as well as 1st Muharaam (Islamic lunar year) can be used as a momenta, for everyone, includiing myself, to review and comtemplate for what had been done in the last 365 days. For then, we can set up (new) goals to be achieved in a yer to come.
Further, I want to copy-paste the new year event as the historical hijrah (hegira) of prophet Muhammad, the best man ever created by the Almighty.
We can use both 1st January or 1st Muharaam to do the hijrah. Not only by means of physical but more of intengible hijrah, ie heart, feeling,  mindset, etc. Hijrah means to leave the bad things and activities to move on a better, clearer, cleaner things and activities. From the jahil to the enlightened.
For those who haven’t had the chance to hijrah, then to day is the best time for you to do so. Lets take the moment.
Let us be a better person.
Happy hijrah!
Salaam ~
