Yesterday Members of the winning 1998 French national team will accompany star Zinedine Zidane played an indoor exhibition match in Algeria. And from the video you can see some glimpses of genius.

I mean just checkout the video above at the 1:27 mark.

Another longer video showing highlights from both exhibition matches after the break.

This Wednesday we’ll have some international fixtures after a long time of hibernation. On March 3rd we’ll have the final round for the Asian Cup Qualifiers, most groups are finalized except for Kuwait’s group (Group 2) and Jordan/Iran group (Group 5).

A draw is sufficient for Kuwait to get to the finals, but that might be easier said than done while Oman still have a chance if they win on Wednesday night.

Also this Wednesday, Europe take a break from their domestic competitions for some friendly games.

Here is the list of the most important games this week.

Wayne Bridge made a public display of his ill-feeling towards John Terry when he spurned the offer of a handshake from the Chelsea captain.

The Manchester City player then helped his side to a surprise 4-2 victory at Stamford Bridge.

In other Premier League news, Arsenal’s midfielder Aaron Ramsey was carried off on a stretcher and taken to hospital after suffering a horrendous injury at Stoke.

The 19-year-old went down in a heap following a late challenge by Ryan Shawcross, who was shown a straight red card.

The disturbing picture after the break.

A giant statue (10 meters high) of Cristiano Ronaldo was erected in Madrid’s historic Plaza de Ramales for a Nike’s commercial shoot.

A.C.A.B stands for “All cops are bastards” and it’s used by hooligans and convicts all over the globe. This picture is from Russia, these two guys in front of hundreds of cops with a banner like that must be very brave or crazy!

Yesterday we passed by Info Connect at the International Fair Ground to see what’s new. We weren’t expecting much from there except for some new DSL prices but we still had to wonder around checking stuff out before ManU/Arsenal – Egypt/Ghana games.

To our amazement we found a cleaning solution in an Tech/IT expo.

we ended up buying 3 of this AMAZING Kleaner :/

Also when walking around we noticed an unreleased Android mobile device on display in a protected glass case.

Yes it is the SonyEricsson’s upcoming X10. it will be the company’s first android device that should be available as early as next month.

Zidaneoo was also looking for a new laptop. So, we had a quick look around and saw an i7 and an i5 HP laptops that had a very good price. cant remember the exact pricing and specs. but I should have the up soon.

We took our time there wich made us miss both game’s kick-off. and when we got to Showtime’s booth i saw this.

Of course they were watching the Egypt game.

And when it was time to leave, it was raining and we were greeted with a lightnings show.

So, not much to say about the Expo. With the exception of semi-good ADSL prices.

Bader Al-Mutawa at Malaga F.C. training session during his trial period.

Thanks Nasser

UPDATE:
It looks like Malaga FC has requested from Al-Qadsiya FC to extend Bader Al-Mutawa’s trial period (from 1 week to 10 days) after doing very well in his first trial session. Best of luck to him.

Thanks Mahmoud

After the sad events of the beginning of the Tournament in Angola with the shooting and withdrawal of Togo from the championship, we have now seen a lighter side of football.

This is goalkeeper Joao Rafael in the game between Benin vs Mozambique from the African Cup of Nations. He made a “routine” save late in the game almost cost him a goal and a broken neck! Hilarious fail moment from the ACN.
