LIFE....

LIFE....
(It's A Mess....And Rightly So...) 

Life is so chaotic and so messy....So full of surprises....So teary...I can go on and on and I won't run dry of adjectives to explain what we saw yesterday night....So let's just get right to it.....#Chaotic....

Madrid 1(4) VS 3(3) Juve

•Adequate Plans....
(The best of plans doesn't guarantee the best of results)
-I have to give it to Allegri...He went for a back 4; started with Matuidi in the midfield and with Khedira, they ran Madrid off the pitch...Putting Madzukik on Carvajal was a masterclass; a no.9 playing as a 9 but on the wing...2 headers...2 goals. But like we all saw, it still didn't end well...

See....do your best and leave the rest for grace....

•Adequate Start....
(It is still not a guarantee...)
-Within 2 minutes they were already a goal up...Juve had the perfect start and the perfect game plan. Madrid and Zidane took the game lightly and nearly payed for it...But just one mistake turned the whole game around....In this life,  it takes just one mistake to undo all the rights....#Reality...

•Nobody Is Useless....
(Yes....we all have a role to play...)
-We have criticised Benzema for a long time but in this match, his presence was missed. Ronaldo needed help upfront and Bale was not ready to "Bail" Madrid...In this life,  don't ever look down on anybody because you do not know when you will need their help...#Never....

•St.Micheal....
(Some things are just beyond us....)
-The football game is to life as the referee is to "God". You don't question "God's" decision no matter how bad things get....For me,  I believe Micheal Oliver had his decisions right on point....It was a stone cold penalty and Buffon crossed the line questioning his humanity...You don't do that even as a captain.... 

•The Savior
(He is coming....trust me, he will...)
-Say all you want to say...Ronaldo is class!!...Only a machine under those circumstances can still take such a beauty as a penalty bailing out Madrid when they needed it most...He came through....

See....In life, help and saviours will come when you least expect them to.  

>Life is a mess...so don't try sorting it out....#winks...

>Life doesn't always go according to plan...so plan on the go....

>Everything happens for a reason....Including that lost investment,that heartbreak, that failure etc...All are part of the divine set up...So Be Calm and Keep Your Cool....

N/B!!!

N/B!!!
(Everybody Loves Something...)

P:S-I Think This Is My Most Important Post

Earlier this year




,Liberia swore their new president into office...the stadium was packed full of people who wanted to see this history making event live...

His name is George Weah aka "King George"...The best African footballer Ever....yes,ever!

WHO IS KING GEORGE?

I.A Man Of Passion
-51years ago on 1st October(Yes, our independence),Weah was born in the ghetto & left for his grandmum to train after his parents separated. He then dropped out of school to focus on his love;football.
-N/B:We are shaped and motivated by what we love.It reveals our Passion.

II.A Man Of Great Talent
-He was first spotted by coach Claud Le Roy who relayed it to Arsene Wenger that outwitted Antonio Conte again last night to win 2-1 to advance to the EFL finals...sorry, I deviated.what was I saying again?
-Wenger flew down to Liberia,saw him and signed him for AS Monaco
-N/B: If you ignore what you're passionate about,you ignore the greatest potentials inside you.

III. A Man With A Big Heart
-As Weah grew to become one of the biggest players ever,he never forgot home
-He knew football was the one uniting factor Liberia had even after his cousins were killed by rebels...he sponsored the national team,paying their allowances and paying for their flight tickets
-N/B: Love is action,its not written in campaign promises and slogan....A man with a big heart is seen when no one is even watching.....

IV.A Man Of Fair Play
-In May 2001,when Liberia needed to beat Nigeria to qualify for the 2002 world cup,Weah as a player paid his teammates allowances and flight ticket and on the pitch of play...was the "General"... A certain young Yobo man marked him and made life miserable for him...they lost 2-0
-He was angry but after the match,went to Nigeria's dressing room to encourage Yobo....
-Just a day after becoming President,he told his opponents to nominate ministers...
-N/B: His spirit of sportsmanship was there even before he became president and continued even after becoming president...It didn't just appear during the campaign period.

IV. A Man Of Excellence
-Everything he touched turned into gold...
W-World player of the year
E-European Player Of The Year
A-African Player of The Year
H-Head Of State..

N/B: He had a proven track record for excellence that was gotten through the right source and means....he didn't just "blow" overnight

V. A Man Of The People
-He is the President now because he is loved by majority of Liberians especially those living in the slums and ghettos...
-He was voted for mainly by the "YOUTHS".... Yes,the youths of Liberia brought about the change they have now....
-N/B: The youths still holds the key...

What are you waiting for?
They did that with their voters card. Not by making "sex dolls" trend on social media.

Does that look like qualities of a good leader?...I think so. So be careful. Be sensitive. Weigh the options;the pros & cons. Be selective with who you vote for as 2019 beckons.

Go get your cards.
Its ending on the 31st of this month.
Get these people out of office & get the right ones on.

Its still ONelsports
Have a bliss filled day!

OUR OWN

OUR OWN....
(Football Wakanda....)

"I swear it's made in Italy",the young shoe maker tried to convince the Cotonou man that came to buy shoes at Ariaria....From afar, I just had to laugh and shake my head....

When will we ever be proud of our own products? Even when it's stronger and superior to the white man's own, we still pretend that it's not our product....I guess we are yet to "Emancipate Ourselves From Mental Slavery"....RIP Lucky Dube...

It's not just in Ariaria that we have denied our own. Even in the world of football, we've denied our own...Bring up Ronaldo vs Messi now,world war 3 argument will ensue.  But we have our own Mohammed Salah matching them stat for stat andwe don't ever praise him.....

Each time he scores,a record is broken...He has been in the business of breaking records since he signed for Liverpool....

▪JUNE 2017
-He became Liverpool 's most expensive signing at an initial fee of £36.9million.
▪AUGUST 2017
-Scored on his PL debut.
-Liverpool player of the month.
▪SEPTEMBER 2017
-First Egyptian to score on his UCL debut for two clubs.
-Liverpool player of the month for the 2nd time.
▪OCTOBER 2017
-Sent Egypt to the world cup for the first time in 28 years.
▪NOVEMBER 2017
-First Egyptian to win the premiership player of the month
-Club player of the month for the 3rd time.
▪DECEMBER 2017
-BBC African Player of the year.
-Club Player of the year for the 4th time
▪JANUARY  2018
-Arab player of the year.
-African player of the year
▪FEBRUARY 2018
-Premiership player of the month for the second time
-Clubs player of the month for the 5th time.
▪MARCH 2018
-He became the first premiership player to win 3 "player of the month" awards in one season.....wow!!

Trying to catch my breath...I had to cut short on his achievements...That's one of our own....He is heralding the "Wakanda" movement in football....

He deserves to stand on the podium with CR7 and Messi come season end....#Fact..

In the world of football dominated by names like goal.com,daily mail, ESPN etc, comes one of our own..."Onelsports" and today we launched our blog site
