FIFA investigates German team

FIFA has opened an investigation into the German national football team after none of its players attended a press conference ahead of their match against Spain.

According to AP, German national team coach Hansi Flick appeared alone at an international press conference in the capital Doha of Qatar on November 26.

Giving the reason, the German coach said he did not want to put more burden on his players before the important match against Spain on November 27, where the two teams drew 1-1.

FIFA has not yet announced when it will issue a disciplinary decision against the German team. But according to AP, it is likely that the German team will only have to pay a small fine.

Germany's base camp, at a resort 110 km from the capital Doha, is further than any of the other 31 teams participating in the World Cup finals in Qatar.

The German Football Association has repeatedly criticized FIFA for not allowing some European teams to wear armbands with the message "OneLove" - ​​a message of support for the LGBT community - during matches at the World Cup finals.

However, Germany and six European teams have had to reverse their decision to wear armbands after FIFA warned it would issue yellow cards to players wearing armbands with the message "OneLove" during matches in Qatar.

Instead, when taking a group photo before the opening match against Japan on November 23, the German players covered their mouths with their hands.

However, after losing 2-1 to Japan on November 23, the German players did not repeat this action when taking a photo before the match against Spain on November 27.

Cameroon goalkeeper argues with coach, kicked out of World Cup 2022

Goalkeeper Andre Onana was dropped from the Cameroon squad just before the match against Serbia in the second match of Group G of the 2022 World Cup.

Coach Rigobert Song surprised fans by not naming goalkeeper Andre Onana in Cameroon's starting lineup for the match against Serbia. This is a match that the African representative cannot afford to lose or face the risk of being eliminated early after the second round. Meanwhile, Andre Onana is one of the biggest stars of the Cameroon team, currently playing for Inter Milan Club.

The 26-year-old goalkeeper was not even named on the bench. He was completely ruled out of coach Rigobert Song's plans for this match as well as the rest of Cameroon's 2022 World Cup campaign. According to AFP, Andre Onana was subject to internal disciplinary action.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano said Onana himself has decided to skip the 2022 World Cup and not play for Cameroon even if he is brought back into the squad. The goalkeeper disagreed with head coach Rigobert Song over technical issues.

He did not want to change his style of play - known as the traditional style, which means the goalkeeper focuses only on blocking, saving shots and commanding the defense. Meanwhile, coach Rigobert Song asked the goalkeeper to participate in coordinating the ball development from the back.

Entering the 2022 World Cup, Andre Onana is Cameroon's number one choice as a goalkeeper.

Messi has not agreed to go to Inter Miami

Lionel Messi's agent Marcelo Mendez says the Argentine superstar never reached an agreement to join Inter Miami.

"That's false information. There is no agreement between Messi and Inter Miami next season," agent Marcelo Mendez told CNN at noon on November 28 (Hanoi time). This information was also confirmed by ESPN. M10 once said that playing football in the US was his dream. However, the 35-year-old superstar only made a decision about his future afterWorld Cup 2022close.

On the night of November 27, The Times reported that Inter Miami was close to signing Messi after his contract with PSG expired in the summer of 2023. The Argentine superstar would even receive the highest salary in MLS if he joined Inter Miami, the team owned by former player David Beckham. However, Messi's side has had an official response.

Messi focuses on Argentina and only decides on his future after the World Cup.

This is not the first time Inter Miami has shown interest in Messi. During the 2021 summer transfer window, the MLS club tried to recruit the Argentine star before he chose to join PSG on a 2-year contract.

Inter Miami has many advantages to own Messi when the Argentine superstar already has a house in Miami, USA. The South American community in this city is also large enough to help him integrate quickly if he moves to MLS to play.

However, Inter Miami's ambitions could be thwarted by PSG as President Nasser Al-Khelaifi wants to keep Messi for the long term. The Qatari businessman is happy to have M10 in the squad. Mr. Al-Khelaifi highly values ​​​​Messi's professionalism and talent. On October 25, Le Parisien revealed that PSG offered the Argentine superstar a one-year contract, with the option to extend for another year if both sides reach an agreement.
