satta king

Asian football history will be made this Wednesday with South Korea at the heart of it all. The Land of the Morning Calm is supplying 50% of the eight teams still involved in the Asian Champions League as the continental competition resumes at the quarterfinal stage after a break of four months.

Much has happened since the second Delhi Bazaar Satta King round came to a close in May, not least the 2010 World Cup. Nothing like this, one nation supplying the maximum four teams possible, has happened before however.

East and South-East Asia supplied 16 of the 32 teams that started out in the competition back in February. The four teams each from Japan and China have fallen by the wayside as have representatives from Australia, Indonesia and Singapore. Only Togel SingaporeKorea remains as the K-League looks for a ninth championship and East Asia for a fifth in succession.

Now, with the final in sight, the continent is no longer split into east and west. After the group stage and the one-off match of the second round, the quarter and semi-finals are two-legged affairs.

Defending Asian champions Pohang Steelers and defending Korean champions Jeonbuk Motors will face long trips to West Asia over the next week. Not Seongnam Ilhwa or Suwon Bluewings though. Most eyes in Korea will be on the clash between the Gyeonggi giants who become the first all-Korean participants of an Asian tie since Jeonbuk and Ulsan met at the semi-final stage of the 2006 tournament.

It promises to be quite a clash, both at Seongnam’s Tancheon Stadium on Wednesday and in the second leg at Suwon World Cup Stadium a week later. A few months ago, Seongnam, would have been the overwhelming favorites to progress to the last four for the third time in seven years but much has changed over the summer.

To be more accurate, Suwon have changed. The team now bears little resemblance to the soporific and sluggish side that sank to the bottom of the K-League in the first half of the season. With loss after loss in the domestic game, coach Cha Bum-keun, regarded as the greatest Asian soccer player of the 20th century, called it a day in June.

His replacement Yoon Sung-hyo has, so far, been a revelation. Seven wins and two ties, a record marred only by last weekend’s loss at the hands of leaders Jeju United, have seen the Bluewings soar from bottom to seventh place in the league.

New signing Naohiro Takahara is starting to score and the former Japanese international in joined in attacked by the returning Shin Young-rok. With Kim Doo-hyun and Baek Ji-hoon looking like their former selves in midfield, Suwon fans are confident of upsetting Seongnam.

In Asian terms that would be something of a shock. Seongnam were much more impressive in the Champions League earlier this season and is still going well in the league with six wins from its last ten matches. Coach Shin Tae-yong is looking to become the first man to win the Asian Champions League as both coach and player after lifting the trophy with the same club back in 1996.

“Suwon has a strong forward and midfield line-up …and the team condition of Suwon looks very good and it is also playing well. But we don’t need to worry about this. We will prepare well and win.” said Shin to the official homepage of the Asian Football Confederation.

“Every K-League club has a keen desire to play in the Champions League. They want to win the prize money and they want to play in the FIFA Club World Cup. So they prepare a lot for the competition. I think this is the main reason why four K-League clubs could reach the last eight this year.”

Pohang Steelers won the competition last year for a record third time and despite the team’s poor form at home; they have made it into the last eight once again. The first leg is a long trek to the home of Iran’s league leaders Zob Ahan. It is the first time that the hosts have made it this far but after the Iranian national team won 1-0 in Seoul last week in an international friendly, Pohang will be taking nothing for granted.

The third Korean match sees Al Shabab of Saudi Arabia travel to Jeonju to face Jeonbuk Motors. It is the first West Asian opposition for the Greens since the final of the 2006 tournament in which they defeated Al Karama of Syria. Jeonbuk will be favorites to progress to the last four despite a poor showing last Friday as they lost 3-1 at home to Gangwon FC. Last, and for Koreans, least, is the all West Asian clash between Saudi Arabian powerhouse AL Hilal and Qatar’s Al Gharafa.

Woken toward the beginning of today by the call of the muezzin, blasting out “Allahu akbar” on a mouthpiece at 5.30a.m. This made me ponder the likeness final ankI slam and football. The muezzin will call individuals to petitions five times each day consistently, at the crack of dawn, early afternoon, mid-evening, dusk and night. The schedule for these calls can be found in the day by day papers. A more adaptable plan is taken on for football however subtleties can likewise be found in the paper, for some, ordinary individuals take part in this type of religion through the TV. Our TV postings page will show, Soccer AM, Football Focus, Match of the Day any live games and late night football from abroad. Other more dedicated supporters, will likewise go to the installations segment and answer the call, some of the time by voyaging tremendous distances.

Islam signifies ‘accommodation’ and individuals are relied upon to notice the five columns which structure the premise of the religion. The primary column is to openly proclaim ‘there is no God except for Allah and Mohammed is his Prophet’. In football we will let anybody know that our group is superior to any other person’s, regardless our present association position is.

The subsequent column, is to answer the call of the muezzin, and implore five times each day. (I addressed this mornings call by requesting that he hush up). In football it is critical to get your day by day fix and a development of late occasions has been the incredible ball in the sky – the satellite which gives relentless data.

The third column is to give offerings for the propogation of Islam and to help the destitute. In football this should be possible by paying extreme measures of cash as either match day affirmation expenses or satellite membership charges.

The fourth, expresses that Muslims should quick during sunshine hours during the long stretch of Ramadan. We should endeavor, during the season which can run throughout the entire year, to observe each game we can live, in the event that not, on TV and furthermore read with regards to it in the different types of media accessible. It is additionally critical to guarantee any discussion we have in the bar is based around our religion.

The fifth and last column is the pilgrimage, the journey to Mecca. In football we as a whole, any place we are have a fantasy that one day we will actually want to remain on the porches and see our group in the last of our nation’s head contest. With Islam there is a particular name given to those that have made such an excursion, in football those individuals who go to such an occasion are known as ‘fortunate’ by the people who didn’t get a ticket.

On a new free morning, (my solitary to date) I went for a stroll down to the Citadel, worked by Saladin in the twelfth century. There you can observe the mosque of Muhammad Ali, (I was drawn in by the name as I am certain I have heard it some place previously). The police presence outside was satta final ank solid and inside police with weapons were profoundly noticeable. The actual mosque was somewhat boring from the outside yet inside its arches are designed like a faberge egg. Outside in the yard you can see ( when it isn’t shrouded in framework a lavish clock which was given by King Louis-Phillipe of France in return for the monolith that stands in the Place de la Concorde. The clock was harmed upon conveyance and presently can’t seem to be fixed!

The mosque rules Cairo’s horizon, yet a shockingly better view was had from the Muqattam slopes which think back over the fortification. Somewhere out there through the cloudiness I had my first sight of two toblerones somewhere out there.
