[00:02:51] of [00:05:26] welcome to Sports Update. The big stories are coming thick and fast. The world [00:05:29] quarterfinals are set. Mosala begins a new chapter in Turkey and [00:05:33] Venicius Jr. stays at Real Madrid to use his delight and of [00:05:37] course to Arsenal's disappointment. We've got all the build of reaction and [00:05:40] analysis right here on TVC. breakfast Saturday and [00:05:43] Marked by my reliable co-uncle toyosia how are [00:05:47] you doing [00:05:48] are you fantastic now surprisingly we have coach Kenneth Enofe owner of [00:05:52] Show Sports United States joining us on the show this morning [00:05:55] coachy good to have you on the show this morning thank you thank you fantastic [00:05:59] now the decisive wafcon 2026 group d class between Malei and Ghana ended in a [00:06:03] 1-1 draw at the Almedina stadium in Rabat the hard fought result [00:06:07] successfully advanced the black queens of Gana to quarterfinals as group runners [00:06:11] up while a hard Broken Mari squad were eliminated [00:06:15] from the tournaments on goal difference. In other games, Cameroon and Cape Verdey played [00:06:18] to a historic one draw in their final group. The resort allows Cameroon to [00:06:22] finish top of group D with seven points, setting up a highly anticipated quarterfinal [00:06:26] matchup against the Super Falcons of Nigeria, of course, right [00:06:30] there we've got all the action. Now to see uh, from everything [00:06:33] you saw with the Afghan tournament, how would you say it has [00:06:37] faired so far? It's been interesting. Um, in fact, the very first [00:06:41] game or the first round. the tournament scored 30 goals [00:06:44] breaking the record for the wafcon in in general, [00:06:48] that means that we already breaching the gap, football for women, it's [00:06:52] it's developing [00:06:53] more and more, but seeing goals being scored, mean banda is the highest goal [00:06:57] scorer at the moment, just unfortunately she can't continue in this tournament because zambia out [00:07:01] with five goals and the rest with three three goals each um 50 goals [00:07:05] already in total so far the first round these games, we're still looking [00:07:09] forward to the quarterfinals and the semifinals the interesting thing [00:07:13] about this year's wafcon is is because it's a [00:07:17] world cup qualifying wafcon tournament, so good they been doing well. [00:07:21] i'll get coach perspective as we cruise on and this is a confirmation of how group d [00:07:25] ended. cameroon finished as top team in group d with seven points, the first place finish [00:07:28] sets up a highly anticipated clash against traditional rivals - Nigeria, [00:07:32] ghana finished second with four points, mali finished third with four points, but we're eliminated v [00:07:36] go difference while debutant uh kibr finish bottom [00:07:40] the table. now moving to the main topic [00:07:44] with the with the wafcon, nigeria super falcons will battle their long [00:07:47] time rivals, the cameron uh of course uh [00:07:51] football team right there [00:07:53] and it's quite interesting to understand that things are looking quite interesting as [00:07:56] domitable line is a high states quarterfinal clash on sunday 9th [00:08:00] of August Nigeria recovered from a 3-2 loss to Malawi to beat Zambia and [00:08:04] Egypt and advanced as group C runners up Cameroon top Group D [00:08:08] onbeating setting up tough clash however Nigeria hold the historical [00:08:12] age including a one near quarterfinal win over Cameroon at the [00:08:15] 2022 Waffkon. Now uh, coach [00:08:19] Kenneth, now we we've seen how uh the Super Falcons [00:08:22] fared in this tournament, they they were rocked in the first game, and [00:08:26] number of tongs were wagging until they picked it up against uh some [00:08:30] very uh, how I call them French sides and got the result they [00:08:34] got. How would you say that uh, would you say so [00:08:38] far it's becoming tiring saying the Nigerian while? [00:08:42] con uh team you know perform the way they perform and you just [00:08:46] feel we need some fresh perspective to their game [00:08:49] play and that's why people really don't seem excited i i don't really [00:08:53] feel too excited with this wafcon tournament empty stadiums everywhere [00:08:57] kf didn't do a good job with the publicity it's almost seeming like [00:09:01] the the females are not giving that attention they deserve what's your [00:09:04] standpoint yeah first of all i would say when it comes to the [00:09:08] super falcons they they they have a strongest in football. [00:09:13] and for me I've always said those are the group of women that can lead [00:09:16] football into a different perspective because the potential they do [00:09:20] have right from the 1999s and all to what we have [00:09:24] now however um development is is the problem [00:09:28] still it has not to do with finances uh I think emphasis should be [00:09:32] put on more on developing the young girls into becoming [00:09:35] superstars and replacing the ones that's you know getting off [00:09:39] edge and put lot of competition out there for them to grow. [00:09:43] uh, this tournament lack audience, of [00:09:46] course, um, I probably would advise calf [00:09:50] to pull more on people trying to watch the [00:09:52] games, um, and the more, because as players [00:09:55] when more on the games and people can really tune to [00:09:59] that, there's so much potential in our women, you know, and everybody can see [00:10:03] that, um, hopefully we can fix that, as the owner of shore sports in the [00:10:07] US, yes, you understand football business, yeah, are we saying carf do not [00:10:11] understand the, the advantage of having eyes on the [00:10:14] game to attract sponsors and endorsements, because it's almost seeming like they're taking [00:10:18] a backseat not realizing the potential with women's [00:10:21] football. i think the biggest problem in in owning. jobs or doing [00:10:25] anything is the desire and the will to succeed, so you probably [00:10:29] might have um um a structure, a good intention right, but where's [00:10:33] the will on desire to succeed? i think that's what we like in every every department [00:10:36] football, so you might have club, you might have calf, you [00:10:40] might have whatever govern football, do they have the [00:10:43] desire to actually succeed, and when we have that desire we [00:10:47] put every toes and make sure it's done, yeah, all right, well there [00:10:51] we call the final action throughout the course the weekend, iver cose will battle. North [00:10:55] African side Algeria, host nation Morocco, we take on South Africa's Biana [00:10:59] Biana while Malawi will slug it out against Ghana. [00:11:03] Now, of course, Norway have called on FIFA President Gianni Infantino to [00:11:07] resign following his aborted attempt to sell of stakes in the world cup [00:11:10] to private investors, but Mexico and Argentina have voiced the support [00:11:14] the 56 year roll. Now Norway have gone a step further than the [00:11:18] football associations of England, Wales, Croatia and Albania, all of whom have [00:11:22] withdrawn support for Infantino without. explicitly calling for [00:11:26] him to resign, among them were questions around the awarding of tournaments, the [00:11:30] inaugural fifa peace prize that was awarded to US president Donald Trump [00:11:34] in December, and the overturning of a bann for American forward for laring [00:11:38] Balogung during the recent work following a phone call from Trump, [00:11:41] meanwhile earlier on Friday the Mexican football federation broke ranks with [00:11:45] his regional governing body concav to come out in support of [00:11:49] infantino, to see [00:11:52] infantino is been a roller coaster. Yeah, how would [00:11:56] you describe this whole fiasco? um, dramatic, let me put [00:12:00] it that way, and controversial, in as much as we can be messy people that we [00:12:04] love dramas like this, it's interesting to see, but it's also not good for [00:12:07] football, I mean um, you look at fans and they see people in [00:12:11] power of global football that they are not trustworthy, they're not [00:12:15] transparent enough, and they want to take the essence the game from the fans [00:12:18] itself, um, Infantino has been under fire for um couple of weeks [00:12:22] now, especially during the world cup to as well. mean it's bad [00:12:25] timing that the workcup just ended a controversial workcup [00:12:29] ended and then you didn't wait maybe the months or six months and the next [00:12:33] thing you are coming up with you want to share you want to um sell [00:12:37] sticks the world cup [00:12:38] you know and obviously you will get back lash the likes of uffa [00:12:42] are not still done with you because they're still having that issue with you about the you [00:12:46] rightly mentioned the falari [00:12:47] by logan call uffa are still mad they're still angry and they want an [00:12:51] explanation why you allowed that happen a world cup tournament many things have [00:12:55] also happened, the argentine, the argentine side have caused so many operar and all that, [00:12:59] and yet you see went ahead to say you want to sell sticks at you know for the world cup, so it's it [00:13:03] was bad timing, wrong consultation and you know on [00:13:07] just not taking into uh perspective the ideas and the [00:13:11] mood of your members, coach is are you sure [00:13:15] infantino will continue as a football president in the coming [00:13:19] days and months, i think it's going to be very difficult, i think he has miss missed [00:13:22] uh the objective okay and is leadingself into [00:13:26] uh commercial business instead of focus on football [00:13:30] um and for me living [00:13:32] in the states is very tricky you can get yourself [00:13:35] involved in money and everything i think they've brought him into a space he [00:13:39] doesn't understand so it's more of - trying to figure out uh [00:13:43] how much can we make in the future in the present i think he messed it up when he [00:13:47] overturned for laring balloon's right card that was why i felt he he dropped the [00:13:51] ball he he was lead he was leading to uh understanding that there's a second chance [00:13:55] wow, football is second chance, oh my goodness, Venicius Jr. has signed [00:13:59] new six-year contract extension with Real Madrid, of [00:14:02] course uh, keeping him at the club until June 30th, [00:14:06] 2032, the Spanish giant officially confirmed the blockbuster renewal [00:14:10] following intensive crunch talks that put an end to intense summer transfer [00:14:14] speculation, English Premier League said Arsenal had heavily pursued the [00:14:17] 26-year-old winger, tracking his situation closely while he was in the final [00:14:21] year of his previous year, Venicius is said to net a staggering. 100 [00:14:25] million pounds over the span the agreement, elevating him to the club's highest paid [00:14:29] player alongside killiano mbape. the new contract retains a massive 1 [00:14:33] billion pounds, one billion euros buyout class, rival suitor's [00:14:37] returning head coach jose maurino was heavily involved behind the scenes [00:14:41] i already knew yuzi would never let a venicious leave because that is his [00:14:45] kind of player, animalistic, beastly on the pitch, well [00:14:49] driven speed, agility and what have you? do you think [00:14:52] arsenal where should be commended for? running after that [00:14:56] signing, absolutely, um, if you want to retain your [00:14:59] championship or want [00:15:01] to retain a winning group, you have to have people that have winning mentality, [00:15:05] and when you bring in more players that signifies everybody should be on their [00:15:09] tools, so when you win league or you win a world [00:15:12] title, it's good to keep the same time, but it's also good to im put some [00:15:16] people that can put everyone toast, fantastic, what's your take on this, mean [00:15:20] you can't blame us now for going into this one, it was entizing honestly [00:15:24] and of course just like rightly mentioned, it's very difficult to upgrade a win [00:15:28] inside, and so when you bring someone like Venetius Jr., he elevates your [00:15:31] attack, he removes the body of you, over relying on the likes of [00:15:35] Saka and balances that attack. "the they are going for they won the [00:15:39] league title, there's nothing wrong with winning the champions league, they almost won the champions [00:15:43] league, so Venicius Junior just as asats them as favorite of [00:15:46] winning probably the champions league and the league in one season, but [00:15:50] yes it looked like it was overstretching because the financial [00:15:54] package involved, I don't think Arsenal were capable of doing so. well, my director just [00:15:58] told me that we got a few minutes left on the show to to round off, but before we go, [00:16:02] you uh with you spare head at the embassy cup [00:16:05] tournament, you grooming young players." Yeah, and uh, I [00:16:08] intentionally wanted to have you on the show today, because alongside [00:16:12] analysis, telling us about how grasswood football is taking the [00:16:16] center stage with your effort, how would you describe what has happened [00:16:19] so far with uh, you know, getting used to to to to be [00:16:23] noticed, unbelievable talent here, uh, I was shocked [00:16:27] because of course I know with our talents, we have tremendous [00:16:30] potentials here, but it's supposed what my expectation [00:16:33] was, um, the players, passion, lot of... [00:16:37] desire to succeed, I think what we do need is just to uh have [00:16:41] the right organizations [00:16:43] and right coaching programs so they have the right direction of our [00:16:46] football is played. Michelob once said that if he would come into Nigerian [00:16:50] football, that list has [00:16:52] to be cleansed for him to be able to operate. With what [00:16:55] you notice, do you think there's a barrier in really seeking up these young talents who really [00:16:59] know how to play football? But it appears what we have now is if you don't know one [00:17:03] two three people you can't just be in the squad. Do you have that [00:17:06] same challenge? as well um, in in this part of what we [00:17:10] did, we were trying to see that, we were trying to be very fair, [00:17:14] which i was, and i kind of figured that, listen, [00:17:18] it's not about how much you know anybody, it's going to be me looking at what you [00:17:22] have and open it doors for everybody, it's been a problem in nigerian [00:17:26] football, african football, and it's been a problem football in general, not just in [00:17:29] Africa, you know, so of course people think here we [00:17:33] have much of it, organization, but even in america, even in Europe, [00:17:37] do you actually know? i'm excited you're here, because eminalo right now is [00:17:41] is is is really breaking records all over the world because of his experience [00:17:45] outside of Nigeria, you happen to sparehead show sports [00:17:49] in the US [00:17:49] and you come in here to with your wealth of knowledge, we are happy that people like you who [00:17:53] understand football is now beginning to look towards this direction, [00:17:57] so i wish you all the very best coach, i wish you all the very best, so before we [00:18:01] finally leave uh real madrid have officially completed the signing of 19-year-old ico's [00:18:05] winger. Monday of course from [00:18:08] real Madrid agreed to pay guaranteed fee of [00:18:11] 125 million euros, the deal includes additional 15 million euros [00:18:15] atoms divided into 10 million euros easily achievable bonuses [00:18:19] and 5 million euros in harder to reach targets. To you see, you see [00:18:23] is just constituting the army, you just took the just took it [00:18:27] out of most these signings uh, they have um Jose Mourinho's [00:18:31] hand writing all over them before he even joined, even though the deal was already done, here [00:18:35] I'm sure he must have given them a list of players. wanted so that things will [00:18:39] go smooth bause the target is right two seasons back to back no [00:18:42] trophy the target is come and put real madrid back top mosala [00:18:46] to turkey one amazing amazing i [00:18:49] love and all that coach is a pleasure having you on the show this [00:18:53] morning thank you so much always fantastic thank you so much is the [00:18:57] best we can do right here on sports update we leave you in the hands of our co-unckers [00:19:01] to take here home stay [00:19:02] tuned [00:21:04] All right, I know who I be by devido, the [00:21:08] interesting developments this morning [00:21:11] from issue of cyber security, to the rule of traditional [00:21:15] rulers in governance and also to issue that has [00:21:19] to do. with pastor irien talking about movie [00:21:23] production melt down to sports interest in development so what's [00:21:27] your take? yeah [00:21:28] i really liked um the the talk we had [00:21:32] with i [00:21:34] right [00:21:39] of yeah i really liked it because i'm one of those [00:21:43] that believe that traditional rulers deserve [00:21:46] better you know they deserve better respect. from [00:21:50] the their communities, unfortunately they're not having those. what I didn't [00:21:54] say while he was around is that some the traditional [00:21:58] rulers are responsible for this wittled down [00:22:01] respect that the traditional institution is having right [00:22:05] now, I mean not just long ago, [00:22:08] we uh brought a story about a traditional ruler [00:22:12] that was convicted of stealing [00:22:16] things like that, you know, but are there a driving? force for [00:22:20] the political situation any country, especially African [00:22:24] country, it is capital, yes, your take onto this [00:22:27] show, [00:22:30] segments, and you you also [00:22:34] came with, did I, did I actually did I, or you guys [00:22:38] started before me or without me, started before her, exactly, you all [00:22:41] started bef without me, which is unfair, [00:22:45] we just have to wait for [00:27:23] Look at them at night, the color a bare wooden [00:27:27] tip, no walls, no blocket, no [00:27:30] fuel.
