Interesting that he died a few days after Zagallo - the 1st and 2nd people to win the World Cup as players and then as managers. Deschamps being the only other person to do it.

Ajax are interested in signing Jordan Henderson from Al Ettifaq, sources have told ESPN, but face competition from the Premier League and the Bundesliga for the England midfielder's signature.
However, his departure was the cause of controversy due to homosexuality being criminalised in Saudi Arabia. Henderson had been an advocate of LGBTQIA+ rights during his time at Liverpool.
News of Henderson's desire to leave come as a fresh setback to Gerrard who recently called for reinforcements to his squad during the January transfer window. Gerrard has also seen his assistant Ian Foster leave to take up a managerial position at Plymouth Argyle earlier this month.

Yes, a lot of upset potential in Africa whereas in Asia there's a big gap between the big 5 and the rest.

Upset in the Asian Cup today as Iraq beat Japan 2-1. This could set up a South Korea vs. Japan Round of 16 match (Winner E vs Runner-up D). They haven't met in a competitive match since 2011.

Equatorial Guinea! Leading the group on goal difference ahead of heavy-weights Nigeria and the Ivory Coast!
They're even ahead of the other Guinea which...I suppose makes them the 'Guiniea-st?'
They are winning the battle of the Guineas. Should such a thing exist, I really dont know.

Tajikistan are into the next round as they upset 10-men Lebanon. They'll most likely play the UAE next which is winnable. China and Lebanon are out

A 90+15 mayasian equalizer prevents a South Korea-Japan showdown. This teams seem to never be able to meet.
