Ole ole ole World Cup 2010

Mula mengikuti World Cup sejak 1982 di Espana ketika Rossi menjaringkan hattrik menentang Brazil, kemudian menyelusup bawah pagar demi tidak melepaskan peluang menyaksikan kehebatan tangan Maradona pada 1986. 1992 menyaksikan Brazil dikecewakan Argentina tetapi dengan bantuan Romario dapat juga menjuarai piala dunia menerusi penalti pada 1994 manakala tandukan orang Algeria, Zidane dengan komprehensif sekali menewaskan Ronaldo & the gang 1998 walau ketika itu kena standby dengan  susu Sarah, kalau tak terbangun pulak baby 4 bulan tu.

The Phenomenon masih melakar sejarah di Jepun pada 2002 tetapi world cup 2006 di Germany kurang seronoknya kerana ancaman bertugas di Johor ketika itu.

World Cup 2010 di benua Afrika dengan maskot Zakumi - za: south africa - kumi: ten - menyaksikan Brazil akan sekali lagi menjulang piala dunia, kalau tak pun Spain. Argentina dengan Messinya seperti biasa akan tersangkut di QF atau paling jauh ke semi. France seperti biasa akan bermula lembap akan sampai ke semi bersama-sama Germany tetapi team yang paling memboringkan, England yang terlebih-lebih hype, pasti akan tersangkut di QF.

Chelsea on the Radix Double

Carlo Ancelotti identified Petr Cech's penalty save as the key moment in Saturday's FA Cup Final, which gave him the Double at his first attempt.

Speaking after the game at Wembley, the Italian was delighted to have achieved such success in his first season in English football. He already has his sights set on next season but will be celebrating with his squad before getting back to work.

'We have to celebrate this victory together I think because everyone put something [in] for winning this Double,' he said.

'I did not have a lot of problems this year with my job, always I could count on the support of my club, my owner, my players. This is not so difficult to manage.

'This is a fantastic victory for me, I am very happy in my first time here in England. I am lucky I had a very good career with fantastic clubs and this year I was happy to work in a fantastic club with a fantastic atmosphere. Everybody did a fantastic job and I thank everyone that worked with me this year.'

Things looked like they could go very wrong when Juliano Belletti tripped Aruna Dindane in the Chelsea area, following a first-half onslaught that had seen us hit the woodwork five times.

'[It was] strange to hit five posts in one half, very strange, and to concede a penalty. That was the key moment because if Portsmouth went 1-0 up it was more difficult for us, but Cech saved the penalty and we scored with Drogba, which made it more easy,' Ancelotti explained.

CHELSEA - CHAMPIONS 2009/10

Chelsea read the script, learnt it and performed it perfectly.

There simply cannot be any better way to seal a league title than with a club's record top-flight win and in doing so, Carlo Ancelotti's magnificent side not only secured the club's fourth championship but did so with a Premier League record number of goals scored - smashing the century to move onto 103 league goals for the season - a new club record in any division.

Any tension in this game soon evaporated when Nicolas Anelka fired in with just five minutes gone. Three more goals, a Frank Lampard penalty and strikes from Salomon Kalou and another from Anelka, were netted before Didier Drogba even found the net.

He ended the day with a second-half hat-trick to take the Premier League Golden Boot with 29 league goals and 36 in all competitions.

By that stage Wigan had long played with 10 men, Gary Caldwell having been dismissed half-an-hour in conceding the penalty that led to the second goal.

Ashley Cole completed the scoring and if there was a disappointment, it was that Petr Cech only shares the Golden Gloves! Liverpool's 0-0 draw at Hull means both he and Pepe Reina end the season on 17 league clean sheets.

Viva Egypt - Africa Nations Cup: Angola 2010

Selepas kejayaan Algeria (negara asal Zinedine Zidane) menewaskan team striker Chelsea Drogba, Ivory Coast 3 - 2 semalam, kini satu lagi negara majoriti umat Islam Mesir pula berjaya membelasah Cameroon 3 - 1. Mesir melangkah ke separuh akhir bertemu Algeria, ulangan perlawanan play-off World Cup Disember lepas di mana Mesir tumpas 1 - 0.

Atas kertas, juara 6 kali Mesir dijangka menang sekurang-kurangnya 2 - 0 tapi yang pentingnya samada Algeria atau Mesir akan terus melangkah ke akhir dan memenangi piala Afrika sekaligus meletakkan negara majoriti Islam di puncak sukan paling popular.

African Cup of Nations: Ahmed Hassan's controversial free-kick sealed Egypt's 3-1 extra time win over Cameroon to set up a mouth-watering semi-final clash with Algeria.Cameroon dominated possession for long periods but were forced into extra time after Hassan made amends for an own-goal with his first of the night. And, after Mohamed Gedo had put the defending champions in front for the first time in the night, Hassan gave Egypt an unassailable lead with a free-kick which did not cross the line.

Berenang : Ketrampilan Khusus Yang Perlu Dikuasai Umat Islam

Adalah Umar Al Khattab dalam sebuah athar (percakapan sahabat) yang diriwayatkan oleh Maqhul, bahawa Umar Al Khattab menulis kepada penduduk Syam yang berbunyi “ajarilah anak-anakmu berenang, memanah, berkuda". Tuntunan itu datang dari Sahabat Nabi SAW yang kita cintai. Berenang, memanah dan berkuda, tiga keterampilan yang seharusnya dimiliki anak-anak penerus semangat Islam.

Kenapa BERENANG?

Tentu ada alasan kuat mengapa Umar Al Khattab menyuruh ibu bapa Muslim mengajar anak-anaknya berenang. Bagi masyarakat di padang pasir, berkuda dan memanah adalah aktiviti lumrah, berkuda ataupun menunggang unta merupakan aktiviti seharian mereka.

Tapi berenang?! ini yang agak menghairankan. Orang Arab tidak terlalu suka pada air (kecuali untuk minum tentunya), tambahan pula kolam atau tasik sukar ditemui di padang pasir kecuali oasis atau wadi. Kita maklum kebanyakan sumber air ini digunakan sebagai sumber air minuman. Oleh kerana air sangat sukar ditemui di daerah padang pasir, maka anjuran ini adalah sebuah hal yang jauh di luar jangkauan pemikiran masyarakat muslim 15 abad lalu.

Viva Malaysia

Dah 20 tahun sejak last sekali Malaysia menang pingat emas acara bolasepak sukan SEA. Harap-harap kali ini di bumi Laos, Malaysia dapat menewaskan Vietnam, kuasa baru bolasepak Asia Tenggara dan memperbaiki kedudukan ranking dunia yang agak baik sikit dari Zimbabwe sekarang ni.

Skuad bola team Malaysia kali ini agak menonjol terutama selepas hampir berjaya membelasah team dari English Premiere League, Manchester United sewaktu kunjungan mereka ke Malaysia enam bulan lepas.
