Qatar falls open against Ecuador in Valencia double

Doha - (AFP) - Qatar's national team fell in its first participation in the World Cup finals against its Ecuadorian counterpart, 0-2, on Sunday, at Al-Bayt Stadium, in the opening match of the Qatar 2022 World Cup.


Ener Valencia scored the two goals in the 16th minute from a penalty kick and 31st in front of 67,372 spectators.


The first group also includes the Netherlands and Senegal, who meet on Monday.


Qatar became the first host country to lose its first match in the history of the World Cup finals, taking an incomplete step at the beginning of its World Cup campaign.


This was the third match in the ranking on the first day of this tournament, but the International Federation of Football Associations decided to advance the start of the tournament by one day last August in order for the host country to play the opening match as usual.


The Ecuadorian team took advantage of a misunderstanding between Qatar goalkeeper Saad Al-Sheeb and one of its defenders, to score Fenerbahçe striker Ener Valencia with a header from close range after only three minutes had passed, but the referee canceled it after referring to the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technique for offside.


The referee awarded a penalty kick after the gray Qatar goalkeeper blocked Valencia inside the area, and the latter successfully approached it (16).


It is the first time in the history of the World Cup that the opening goal has been scored from a penalty kick.
And the Ecuadorian national team continued its advantage, possessing the ball by 62 percent, amid a complete loss of the owners of the land.


And Ecuador, which is participating in the finals for the fourth time in its history, succeeded in consolidating its progress, thanks also to Valencia, who invested a cross from Angelo Preciado from the right to head a ball into the net (32).


Valencia thus increased his tally as the best scorer in the history of his country with 37 goals, and he was the only one with the record number of goals for Ecuador in the finals with five goals, after he was equal with Augustin Delgado.


Paradoxically, Valencia managed to score the last five successive goals for her country's national team in the football tournament as well.


Valencia also became the sixth player to score a double in the opening match during this century, after German Miroslav Klose (2006) against Costa Rica, Costa Rican Paulo Winchop in the same match, Brazilian Neymar against Croatia in the 2014 edition, and Russian Denis Cheryshev against Saudi Arabia in the World Cup Russia. 2018.


The Qatari players entered more calmly in the second half and exchanged the ball with ease. And after Al-Sheeb thwarted Romário Ibarra's attempt from the outskirts of the area (53), Qatari back Pedro Miguel hit a header that passed to the right post after a coordinated attack (62).


The Ecuadorian national team suffered a heavy blow, injuring Valencia in the 77th minute.


Muhammad Muntari, who replaced Al-Moez Ali, attempted a dropped ball, but it landed on the net from above (85).


The meeting is the fourth between the two teams. Ecuador won twice, compared to Qatar once, and tied once as well.

Betting on America is a loser by all accounts

حديث القدس
نعود ونكرر للمرة المليون بأن الرهان على الولايات المتحدة الاميركية وامكانية قيامها بالضغط على اسرائيل من اجل ايجاد حل عادل للقضية الفلسطينية يقوم على أساس قرارات الامم المتحدة بما في ذلك قرارات مجلس الامن هو رهان خاسر بكل المقاييس.
فالولايات المتحدة من خلال مماطلاتها واعطاء آمال زائفة للجانب الفلسطيني هدفه اعطاء الوقت الكافي لدولة الاحتلال من اجل استكمال مخططاتها في الضم والتوسع واقامة المزيد من المستوطنات وفرض امر واقع في الضفة الغربية يحول دون اقامة دولة فلسطينية على حدود الرابع من حزيران عام ١٩٦٧م.
فما تقوم به دولة الاحتلال وبغض النظر عن ذلك من قبل الولايات المتحدة أو في أكثر الأحوال توجه انتقادا غير مباشر لدولة الاحتلال، حال حتى الآن ويحول دون اقامة الدولة الفلسطينية المنشودة التي لا يزال البعض الفلسطيني يراهن على اقامتها رغم كل ما يشاهده من انتهاكات اسرائيلية احتلالية وتحول الضفة الى كانتونات تمنع أي تواصل جغرافي بين مدنها وبلداتها، فبين كل مدينة واخرى عدة مستوطنات ومواقع استيطانية عشوائية الى جانب اعتداءات المستوطنين وضمهم بدعم من الدولة العنصرية للمزيد من اراضي المواطنين.
فلتتوقف المطالبات الفلسطينية من الجانب الاميركي لحل الصراع، لأن الولايات المتحدة غير معنية بذلك، وان كل ما يعنيها هو دولة الاحتلال وتصفية القضية الفلسطينية وان ادعاءاتها وتمسكها بحل الدولتين هو لذر الرماد في العيون.
فلو كانت جادة في حل الدولتين لفرضته على دولة الاحتلال منذ عقود، ولكنها لم تفعل ذلك واعطت دولة الاحتلال الوقت الكافي لمواصلة سياساتها في منع اقامة الدولة الفلسطينية المنشودة والتي يعترف بها غالبية المجتمع الدولي، ولكن دولة الاحتلال تضرب بعرض الحائط بكل ذلك وترى بنفسها وبدعم اميركي بأنها فوق القرارات والقوانين والاعراف الدولية.
لقد آن الأوان للعودة للرهان على شعبنا وقدراته وتضحياته ونضالاته التي استطاع من خلالها ابقاء القضية الفلسطينية حية رغم كل المؤامرات التصفوية والتي تشارك فيها الولايات المتحدة والدول الغربية ذات الماضي والحاضر الاستعماري وان اختلفت الاشكال.
فشعبنا الذي يقارع الاحتلال يومياً ويحبط العديد من مخططاته هو الرهان الاضمن والابقى والذي يحقق الاهداف الوطنية في العودة وتقرير المصير واقامة الدولة المستقلة وعاصمتها القدس الشريف رغم انف الاحتلال.

Official condemnations of the crime of the occupation in Jenin and the factions confirm that it will not go unanswered

Governorates - "Jerusalem" dot com - On Thursday morning, official and factional bodies condemned the new occupation crime in Jenin , which affected 3 young men in the town of Jaba .


Prime Minister Muhammad Shtayyeh held the Israeli government fully responsible for the mobile crimes that shed the blood of our Palestinian people, and does not give any weight to international resolutions and laws.


Shtayyeh considered that these crimes would not have continued in this horrific manner had it not been for the absence of international accountability for the perpetrators and their sense of impunity.


In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates considered that the escalating occupation crimes come as an official response to calls for calm in light of the low level of international reactions and double standards.


The ministry held the Israeli government directly responsible for it and its repercussions and risks for exploding the arena of the conflict, blaming it for its attempts to replace the political nature of the conflict with criminal military solutions.


She said: The failure of the international community to provide international protection for our people encourages the occupation to persevere in committing more crimes, and Israel's continued impunity makes it easier for it to continue to abuse our people, which requires the International Criminal Court to break its silence, end its investigations, and issue arrest and arrest warrants against Israeli war criminals.


For its part, the "Hamas" movement mourned the three martyrs, and its spokesman, Hazem Qassem, said, "This blood will be fuel for the escalation of the great uprising in the occupied West Bank."


Qassem added, "The occupation is unable to resolve this battle against our people, so it resorts to committing these massacres against the rebellious youth, and our Palestinian people and their valiant resistance are capable of paying the occupation the price for its crimes, and punishing it for its terror." as he put it.


He continued, "This battle between our people and the occupation will not stop unless our people win and achieve their goals, and our people will inevitably win the battle of wills against the occupation." According to him.


For his part, Tariq Salmi, spokesman for the "Islamic Jihad" movement, said, "The elevation of the martyrs will only increase our people's resistance, steadfastness, and determination to move on the path of freedom," holding the occupation fully responsible for this crime.

He added, "The bill of reckoning with this enemy will not be closed, and its continuous attacks and violations put us before our duties and responsibilities to defend our people whose blood is shed by gangs of murderers and criminals in the occupation government and its army." like he said.


For its part, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine said, "This massacre will not go unnoticed, and the masses of our people, its factions, and its fighting forces will pay the enemy the price for its crimes." According to the expression of the statement.


For its part, the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine said, "The response to the murder of the three young men and the massacres of the occupation in Jenin, its camp, Nablus, and others, is through resistance and perpetuating the clash and confrontation with the occupation.


Democracy called on the leadership of the authority to stop working on the Aqaba-Sharm El-Sheikh track and its humiliating understandings, to withdraw from it, to stop the actual work in security coordination, and to speed up the formation of the unified national leadership of the popular resistance.


For his part, the head of the Palestinian National Council, Rawhi Fattouh, said that the execution of three young men by the occupation forces inside their vehicle in the town of Jaba, south of Jenin, this Thursday morning, is a war crime.


Fattouh added, in a press statement, that the Netanyahu government is implementing its bloody program, which it promised to its fans of extremists, criminal settlers and thieves, and waging a war of genocide against the Palestinian people.


Fattouh called for the opening of an international investigation by the International Criminal Court, and for the prime minister of the occupation government and his fascist ministers and army commanders to be brought to the war crimes court.


He strongly criticized the silence of the international community and its contention with weak condemnation statements that do not reflect the magnitude of the tragedy and crimes committed by the occupation and settlers against our people.

The Republic of South Africa condemns the racist Israeli aggression on Jerusalem and Gaza

القدس – “القدس” دوت كوم – أدانت وزارة العلاقات الدولية والتعاون في جمهورية جنوب افريقيا بشدة الهجمات الجائرة التي تشنها إسرائيل على المدنيين في غزة والقدس.

واعتبر بيان أصدرته باسم الجمهورية، اليوم السبت، أن التصعيد المستمر للاعتداءات من قبل إسرائيل على الفلسطينيين في غزة هو أمر غير عادل ومخزٍ، لا سيما استهداف الشريحة الأضعف من المجتمع الفلسطيني؛ الأطفال والنساء وكبار السن.

كما حث البيان إسرائيل على وقف جميع عمليات الإخلاء غير القانونية المخطط لها للعائلات الفلسطينية في منطقة الشيخ جراح، مشددا على أن الصور المقلقة للهجمات الإسرائيلية المستمرة على الفلسطينيين والتي تنتهك قرارات الأمم المتحدة، تتطلب دعوة عاجلة لتدخل المجتمع الدولي وإجراء تحقيق في سلوك الحكومة الإسرائيلية وإحالته إلى المحكمة الجنائية الدولية الخاصة بالجرائم ضد الإنسانية.

كما رحب البيان بالوساطة الدولية لوقف إطلاق النار، وتهدئة الوضع، بالإضافة إلى معالجة جميع القضايا التي تسبب التوتر بشكل شامل.

وانتقد بالمقابل الرفض الإسرائيلي للوساطة المصرية والقطرية للتوسط لوقف إطلاق النار، موضحا أن السبب هو أن إسرائيل تشعر أن الوقت ليس مناسبا لوقف إطلاق النار لأنها تريد مواصلة هجماتها الظالمة على الفلسطينيين.

كما دعا البيان جميع دول الشرق الأوسط للاستجابة لخطة وزراء خارجية جامعة الدول العربية، ودعا مجلس الأمن الدولي والمجموعة الرباعية إلى عقد اجتماع عاجل بين إسرائيل وفلسطين لمناقشة عملية السلام دون أي شروط مسبقة.

وأكد البيان أن حكومة جنوب افريقيا ستبقى ملتزمة بشكل لا لبس فيه بالجهود الرامية إلى إحياء العملية السياسية التي تهدف لتحقيق دولة فلسطينية قابلة للحياة تعيش جنبًا إلى جنب مع إسرائيل على أساس حدود 4 حزيران/ يونيو 1967 مع القدس الشرقية كعاصمة لها، امتثالا لجميع قرارات الأمم المتحدة ذات الصلة والقانون الدولي والمعايير المتفق عليها دوليًا.

واكد البيان مجددا موقف جنوب أفريقيا من أن أي خطة سلام يجب ألا تسمح للدولة الفلسطينية بالتحول إلى كيان خالٍ من السيادة والتواصل الإقليمي والجدوى الاقتصادية. في هذا الصدد، يجب أن يقوم الحل على أساس تسوية عادلة بقوانين عادلة قائمة على الحقوق وتحقق المساواة والإنصاف لجميع من لهم الحق في العيش في أراضي إسرائيل وفلسطين. وهذا يشمل المساواة في السيادة بين الدول، ودعا اسرائيل إلى وقف جميع أعمال القتال فوراً والامتثال للقانون الدولي.

في المقابل توالت بيانات التضامن مع شعبنا وقضيته العادلة من مختلف الاحزاب السياسية، مثل الحزب الشيوعي وحزب الجماعة الإسلامية، وحزب الحرية الاقتصادية، اضافة لبيانات تضامنية من النقابات العمالية، وخاصة نقابة التعليم الوطني والصحة وتحالف العمال، كبرى نقابات اتحاد العمال في جنوب أفريقيا. كما صدرت بيانات عن اتحاد المعلمين واتحاد طلاب جنوب أفريقيا.

An Iranian rapper arrested for supporting the protests faces the death penalty

Paris - (AFP) - The family of Iranian rapper Tomag Salehi, who was arrested for supporting the protests that erupted following the death of Mahsa Amini, said his life is in danger after his trial began Saturday away from the media.


Iran has intensified its crackdown on the protests that erupted following Amini's death on September 16 after she was arrested in Tehran for failing to adhere to the Islamic Republic's strict dress code.


Salehi is a well-known figure in Iran, and he was arrested late last month after denouncing the regime and supporting the protests, according to human rights organizations.


The New York-based Center for Human Rights in Iran tweeted that "the first session of the so-called 'trial' of opposition Iranian rapper Tomag Salehi took place today without the presence of a lawyer of his choice."


And the family's tweet stated that "his life is currently in grave danger," noting that he faces charges of "enmity to God" and "corruption on earth", which are offenses punishable by death in the Islamic Republic.


Salehi went missing at the end of October until he appeared in a video recording broadcast by Iranian official media on November 2.


In the video, it is indicated that it is Salehi's first appearance since his arrest.


The video shows a blindfolded man who says he is Salehi and admits to making a "mistake".


Activists condemned the rapper's video, which was published by Iranian state media, and described it as a forced confession.


Salehi is one of several prominent figures arrested in the widespread crackdown, during which dozens of journalists, lawyers, intellectuals and civil society figures have been arrested.


Salehi's arrest came after an interview he gave to the Canadian "CBC" network , during which he said, "There is a mafia ready to kill the entire nation... to keep its power, money and weapons."


And Iranian official media reported that Salehi was arrested while trying to cross the western border of the country, which was denied by his family, who confirmed that he was then in Chahar Mahal and Bakhtiari province in the west of the country.

World Cup 2022: Hazard, the fragile leader, does not want to give up

(AFP) - Belgian striker Eden Hazard is playing in the Qatar World Cup finals in the dress of a fragile leader who is trying to prove his eligibility on the field, after a difficult season in the ranks of his Spanish club, Real Madrid, in which he was not a key player.
The 31-year-old defends his level by saying, "I have not become bad in the past two or three years. I have a desire now to show what I can do and prove my ability to present beautiful football."
Hazard, who was chosen as the second best player in the 2018 World Cup in Russia after his country came third, was not joking in front of local journalists on Monday before heading to Kuwait to play a friendly match against Egypt (1-2).
He added, "It will be my third participation in the World Cup. I want to show the Belgian people that I am still here and that they can count on their leader. It may be our last chance with this golden generation to win a title, and therefore we will try to do our best."
In its participation in the previous two editions, the Belgian national team was eliminated in front of Argentina in the quarter-finals of the World Cup in Brazil in 2014, before losing to its French counterpart in the semi-finals of the last edition four years ago and contenting itself with third place.
Hazard, who played 122 international matches, scoring 33 goals, was an unstoppable winger when he shone in the French ranks of Lille (2007-2012) and then with English Chelsea (2012-2019). But his experience with Real Madrid was not successful at all, although the royal team paid a huge amount to obtain his services for 115 million euros, which is the most expensive in the history of Meringue.
Hazard talked about his experience with the Spanish capital team, "I would be lying to myself if I said that I am living this period well. I do not play, but I try to keep my smile. There are days when things are difficult when I think I will play and this does not happen. I have to adapt to this." the situation".
However, he confirms that he is "good at the present time, both mentally and physically," after he got rid of the injuries that had dogged him in recent years, especially after he regained "flexibility in his ankle" after he underwent surgery to remove a piece of metal from his shin last March.
Hazard reveals, "Now the issue is related to restoring the rhythm, which is the most important thing, because my speed has not changed," especially in light of the World Cup being held in the middle of the European season and a tournament that lacks the necessary preparation.

And at a time when Hazard is trying to regain his previous level, which will allow him to play a full match, or perhaps seven, if his country reaches the final match, the competition has recently increased amid the brilliance of Brighton striker Leandro Trossar, scoring a hat-trick against Liverpool in the English Premier League.
Hazard admits that Trossar has the right to play instead of him, saying, "Someone will take my position, that's how things are. If you are talking about Leandro, he deserves to be in my place at the moment, but I will not give up. If he plays instead of me, I will be the first to congratulate him." He continued his frankness by saying that in the last two years, "I do not consider myself one of the main players," but he dreams of proving his ability to provide a lot for his country's national team.

Spain Championship: Lewandowski suspended for three matches for "gesturing towards the referee"

(AFP) - Polish striker Robert Lewandowski suspended Barcelona striker for three matches in the Spanish Football League after he showed "disrespect" to the referee, and the penalty will take effect when the season resumes after the end of the Qatar World Cup 2022.
The striker was sent off after receiving two yellow cards during the win over Osasuna on November 8 for making a gesture by touching his nose as he left the pitch, which was seen as an offense to referee Jesus Gil Manzano.
The RFEF said in a statement on Wednesday that in addition to the automatic one-match suspension, the striker was imposed two more matches for showing "an attitude of contempt or disrespect" towards the referee.
Lewandowski, the league's top scorer with 13 goals, is set to miss the Catalan derby against Espanyol and the Atletico Madrid and Real Betis matches.
And Lewandowski commented last week at his European Golden Boot award ceremony for his previous season with Bayern Munich, "This is funny, because the gesture was for Xavi (his coach) and not for the referee."
"Last week, I think, we already talked about being careful if I'm given a yellow card, because something like that can happen, and in the end it did. It's my fault, I received two yellow cards, but the gesture was towards (Xavi). ".
And the Catalan club announced in a statement later on Wednesday that it would “raise the matter to the Appeal Committee” of the Spanish Federation.
Barcelona came back from behind to win the match 2-1 and move two points ahead of Real Madrid, the defending champions, who are in the lead after 14 matches.
