The Soil News’ Post

Great to share my thoughts with talkSPORT on World Cup winner, Paul Pogba’s 4-year ban from football following testing positive for the prohibited substance testosterone. A 4-year ban is standard under the World Anti-Doping Code, but can be reduced in cases where athletes demonstrate their doping was not intentional, that the positive test was a result of contamination, or if they provide 'substantial assistance' to help investigators. Pogba reportedly declined the plea-bargain offered to him. Whilst Pogba does have an opportunity to appeal the ban in the CAS, should the appeal be unsuccessful and the ban upheld, it will undoubtedly mark the end of Pogba's professional career. With anti-doping rule violations (ADRV) in football being comparatively rare for a sport with such reach - we wait to see whether Pogba’s case will be the catalyst to unveiling a much bigger doping in football. #Brabners #SportsLaw #AntiDoping #talkSPORT Brabners Citypress Tim Wood https://lnkd.in/ezdfb3W7

Courtesy demands that apologies accompany errors made, especially when it involves multi-million-dollar organizations like football clubs in the Premier League. However, how much are these apologies really worth? Short term, how does it influence the rankings of teams at the wrong end of these refereeing sticks? Long term, how does inconsistent officiating affect the product that is the Premier League? In addition, in what way does it shape how a title race plays out; how does it bite off tiny margins that would have otherwise defined the battle for glory? Most fans would pick efficiency over empathy in this case. But empathy is what most end up with. Fair or not? https://lnkd.in/de9TpvdK

#TanzaniaPremierLeague is arguably one of the most decorated premier leagues across the Sub-Saharan African countries. The Premier League ranked 5th behind Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, and Sudan by the International Federation of Football History (IFFHS) statistics released in 2022. #TanzaniaPremierLeague is the only premier league in Africa where all its football matches are broadcast at 100% #TrueAfrica shows #Tanzaniapremierleaguemainderby ranks 5th behind 1. Al Ahly Vs Zamalek (Egypt) 2. Orlando Pirates Vs Kaizer Chiefs (South Africa) 3. Club Africain Vs Esparance Sportive de Tunis (Tunisia) and 4. Wydad Casablanca Vs Raja Casablanca (Morocco). Yesterday I watched one of the best #Tanzaniapremierleague and #Kariakoo derbies at the #BenjaminiMkapaNationalStadium, with #SimbaSportsClub hosting their main rivals #DarEsSalaamYoungAfrica. Players from at least twelve (12) African countries were involved in the derby 1. Democratic Republic of Congo, five players 2. Mali, two players 3. Burkina Faso, one player 4. Cote d'Ivoire, one player 5. Zambia, three players 6. Ghana, two players 7. Uganda, one player 8. Mozambique, one player 9. South Africa, one player 10. Cameroon, two players 11. Burundi, one player, and 12. Tanzania, Eighteen players. I noticed five things, how the awaited fixture was a topic of conversation throughout the country, the high quality of the broadcast for the match by Azam Media Ltd (Azam TV), the quality of the stadium, the talents exhibited by players from both clubs, technical and entertaining the match was. From the lens of #demandandsupply, It will not surprise me to see an influx of potential investment interests in #Tanzaniafootball in the next 5 to 10 years. As #thepremierleague becomes a daily topic of conversation, it builds a brand and makes it a demanded product in the market. #Tanfootball #TnzaniaPremierLeague #Kariakooderby See the highlights for the #kariakooderby below:
