9 biggest footballers who failed drug tests: Pogba, Maradona, Onana…

Image
  Being an elite sport, football has a rigorous drug testing policy to ensure no team or player gains an unfair advantage by using performance enhancers. It means players have to be extremely careful when fuelling their bodies and taking medicine. Injuries, illness, it all adds up over the course of a worryingly expanding football season, meaning footballers must take tremendous care in looking after themselves. That means being wary of avoiding a lengthy list of banned substances. But by accident or intentionally, plenty of top players have been caught breaking the rules when it comes to drugs and had to face up to the punishment as a result. Here are eight of the biggest names to have failed a drug test. Disclaimer – Rio Ferdinand doesn't feature in the list. The English defender served an eight-month ban in 2003, missing the 2003-04 season, Euro 2004 and the beginning of the 2004-5 campaign with Manchester United, for missing a drug test. He later took the test and passed, but a...

Cristiano Ronaldo's away dressing room in Saudi Arabia like an ๐Ÿ–๐ŸŽs kitchen

Image
  FANS have been left gobsmacked by the dressing room Cristiano Ronaldo had to use while playing for Al-Nassr on Friday. Nassr faced a trip to Al-Fateh, who have not received the same cash injection from the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) that Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad, Al-Hilal and Al-Ahli have enjoyed. A Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick and Sadio Mane brace saw Al-Nassr triumph 5-0 over Fateh, who sit ninth in the Saudi Pro League. It wasn't just the scoreline that demonstrated the gulf in class between the sides - with fans being horrified at the quality of the dressing room at the Prince Abdullah Bin Jalawi Stadium. A series of red conference-room style chairs were plopped onto a white tile floor that looked more like a 1980s kitchen than a professional dressing room. And Ronaldo's team-mate's kits looked to have been carelessly plopped on the top of each chair in scenes akin to Sunday League football. Fans reacted to the threadbare dressing room on Twitter, with one saying: ...

West Ham 3-1 Chelsea: Blues stunned by 10-man Irons as Enzo misses pen

Image
  West Ham United claimed a rousing London derby win against big-spending Chelsea despite playing almost 30 minutes with only 10 men. 2023/2024 Premier League 3  -  1 Aguerd (7')  Antonio (53')  Paqueta (90'+5' PEN)  Chukwuemeka (28')  Enzo (43' Penalty Missed)  Match Events Line-ups The Hammers were 2-1 ahead when defender Nayef Aguerd, who opened the scoring with a seventh-minute header, was sent off in the 67th minute for his second bookable offence. But Chelsea could not force an equaliser and then conceded a late third through Lucas Paqueta's penalty in the fifth minute of added time. Teenager Carney Chukwuemeka scored his first goal for the Blues to make it 1-1 but Enzo Fernandez wasted a chance to put them ahead when his penalty was saved by Alphonse Areola. Michail Antonio put West Ham back in front with a powerful angled strike in the 53rd minute, before the hosts were reduced to 10 men. However, Pochettino's side could not use their man ...

Read Full Story Below⬇️ By:  Wishwell A Kwaku     Last Updated  Aug 11, 2023 Content Description “Lucian, I've been married to you for three years, but you've never once touched me. I'll give my blessing to you and your first crush by giving up on our marriage. Tomorrow, you're free to go after her. But for now, just make it up to me for my feelings for you all these years, please?” With that said, Roxanne Jarvis leaned down and pressed her lips to the man before her as though she was a moth drawn to fire. Her action was both frenzied and desperate. She knew this was a despicable move, but she had loved him for too long. All the while, she had suffered greatly, and now, all she wanted was a little consolation. “Roxanne, how dare you!” Lucian Farwell clenched his jaw as his fury sprang to life.
