The Good

He then went on to say, "I cannot stress this enough. No match, no competition, no league is worth risking a single human life. Everyone in the world should have this very clear in their mind." That is just a bold statement, which is the need of the hour. Despite the football fanatics not being able to wrap their heads around the fact that football is the second important thing when it comes to Life and football concerned. The statement coming from FIFA is a huge one, and we all should put our minds to think in such a manner. 

We have seen many players from both cricket and football contribute to tackling the pandemic COVID-19. CK Vineeth was no different, contributing to the cause but the method he took was innovative and refreshing. The forward joined Coronavirus Helpline Centre in Kerala in his hometown, Kannur. He also added that he will work at the centre till the end of the pandemic while also being safe by all the guidelines issued by the government in regards to COVID-19. 

"The plan is that we would continue this help-line until the dangers of the Coronavirus are averted, and the lockdown comes to an end. The situation in Kerala is much-improved now, of course," the winger said, reported News18. However, he added that the number of calls has decreased since he first started at 150 people. He also hoped that everyone followed the government’s regulations and stayed at home - following all the guidelines issued by them. 

And, Liverpool's brand image seeks help from NHS

Don’t worry, its not a Premier League and definitely not a VAR decision, that went in Liverpool’s favour. Last week, it was reported that Liverpool were furloughing its staff after the current pandemic COVID-19. A new week and they have reversed the decision, after the heavy criticism on social media. They reversed the decision of furloughing 200 of their staff and also issued an apology for their earlier stance. The fact that they decided to reverse the decision after their brand image took a hit is what bothers people, given that they paid around 50 million as agent fees last year. On top of that, knowing that the NHS' Coronavirus Job Retention scheme will pay 80% of those funds. For a club that has so much money in the bank, surely, furloughing is not an option and using NHS' funds too is not one!

Michael Clarke causes Paine to Australian players

So, it all kicked-off on April 7, when Michael Clarke’s statement caused a huge uproar. More than a statement, some people want it to be addressed as claims, due to the audacity of it. Now, the statement was that Australian cricketers were scared to sledge Virat Kohli because of IPL contracts. On the other hand, there was the Australian skipper, Tim Paine who refuted it by saying that it was a strategic move to avoid starting a verbal-fight with Kohli.

The Ugly 

#BartomeuDimision

"Bartomeu told me he wanted to revamp the board and he was annoyed with certain directors, myself included,” said Barcelona’s vice president, who has now has resigned. Well, it does not look like it is going to be over this week or next week, for a matter of fact. It only opens up the pandora-box of lies in the club. And, in all sense, an early election has the opportunity to clear all the confusion and chaos that is there in the club. 

UFC Fight Island!!

And, on top, UFC is a contact-sport, which makes it all worse during the COVID-19 struck period. US Senator Dianne Feinstein of California weighed in on his plans and opposed it. His reason is exactly why fight island during such time is a failure - it would involve dozens of individuals flying to California and driving to a casino for something that is not essential.
