Thailand did defeat bottom side Singapore 3-1, but China progressed thanks to 40-year-old Hassan’s multiple saves. Hassan told Singapore’s state broadcaster CNA a picture of a payment QR code from the food stall he runs has been circulated online which fans have then used to transfer money. “I did enjoy it for a while. I was like, ‘oh OK, money coming in’,” he said on Thursday. “But having said that, I was thinking, ‘when is this going to stop? Is this legal?’” Hassan did not disclose how much money he had been sent but added: “I think we have to stop somewhere.” His family’s stall, Dapur Hassan, which is located in the eastern suburbs of Singapore, has seen many Chinese fans visit since his heroics against Thailand, so much so that local reports said they ran out of food on Thursday. “My family is obviously a bit shocked by all these messages,” said Hassan. “Especially my daughters. They’re like, ‘why do I see your face everywhere?’ BBC

Guardiola’s Manchester City Exit Looms as Barcelona Beckons
Pep Guardiola, the mastermind behind Manchester City’s dominance in the Premier League, is reportedly set to leave the club at the end of next season. According to sources in Spain, Barcelona is eager to appoint Guardiola as their next manager and is willing to “do everything possible” to make it happen. Manchester City secured their fourth consecutive Premier League title on Sunday, defeating West Ham 3-1 in their final match of the season. Despite Arsenal’s victory over Everton, Manchester City finished two points clear of their rivals, capping off an epic title race that saw the Gunners and Liverpool push Guardiola’s side to the limit. With his contract expiring at the end of next season, Guardiola has hinted that his time at Manchester City may be coming to an end.

Guardiola has previously expressed his desire to explore international management opportunities, and the prospect of returning to his former club, Barcelona, may be too enticing to resist. As the football world waits with bated breath, one thing is certain – Pep Guardiola’s departure from Manchester City will mark the end of an era, and his next move will be closely watched by fans and pundits alike.

Cristiano Ronaldo handed one-match ban and fined in Saudi Arabia
Al-Nassr forward Cristiano Ronaldo has been given a one-match ban and fined 30,000 Saudi Riyals by the Saudi Arabian Football Federation (SAFF) for allegedly “provoking fans” after the team’s victory over Al-Shabab in the Saudi Pro League. The incident occurred after Al-Shabab supporters taunted Ronaldo by chanting “Messi,” the name of his longtime rival Lionel Messi. In response, the 39-year-old forward cupped his hand to his ear and made a gesture towards the fans. The SAFF disciplinary and ethics committee has stated that Ronaldo cannot appeal the decision, meaning he will miss an upcoming match for Al-Nassr. Despite the setback, Ronaldo’s impact in the league has been significant since joining Al-Nassr on a free transfer from Manchester United in December 2022, reportedly securing the biggest football salary in history. Ronaldo has scored 20 goals in 22 league games this season and opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the Al-Shabab clash, which ended in a 3-2 victory for Al-Shabab with an 87th-minute winner from Talisca. His move to the Saudi Pro League has attracted attention, with other top European players following suit. Ronaldo’s historic rivalry with Lionel Messi has continued even after both players moved to different leagues. His absence will be a blow to Al-Nassr as they aim to maintain their position in the league, currently sitting in second place behind Al-Hilal.
