Former Newcastle United schemer Emre Belözoğlu (above left) is at the centre of yet another
racism storm after Trabzonspor midfielder Didier Zokora accused the Turkish star of racially
abusing him during a league clash with Fenerbahce at the weekend.
There's a bit of a former Premier League racism storm in Turkey, where ex-Tottenham midfielder
Didier Zokora has accused Newcastle old boy Emre of calling him a "dirty n**ger". The incident
happened as the pair squared up during Trabzonspor's clash with Fenerbahce over the weekend.
Zokora, of Trabzonspor, said: "Emre and I came face to [.

In which, after seeing his teammate Haruna Niyonzima sent off for using foul and abusive
language against Azam FC, Young Africans (a team commonly referred to as 'Yanga') defender
Stephano Mwasika exacts his revenge on referee Israel Mujuni by clocking him one square in the face
during the resultant melee.
Certain Premier League teams are criticized for haranguing and harassing referees, but this
incident from a Tanzanian match between Young Africans (known as Yanga) and Azim puts thing in
perspective.
Incensed when a teammate received a red card for verbally abusing the ref, Yanga's Stephano
Mwasika let his fists do the talking, landing a hefty punch on the official.

'Danny, mate, I've got this great Chubby Brown joke about Africans.....'
I've said it before and I'll say it again clubs should ban their players from using Twitter it's
becoming the ultimate source of high-profile faux-pas and own-goals, with our dearly beloved
football players often Tweeting before they've engaged their brains.
FC Barcelona, FIFA Club World Cup champions in 2009, will face either African champions
Esperance Tunis or Asian champions Al-Sadd in the semi-finals of the 2011 edition.
The tournament, which returns to Japan this time following a two year stint in the United Arab
Emirates, will open up on December 8th with the Japanese national champions, as yet undecided,
facing off against Oceania champions Auckland City with both clubs hoping for a quarter-final
meeting with North and Central American winners Monterrey CF three days later.
The best of the worst of Blatter 1. "He should say that this is a game. We are in a game, and at
the end of the game, we shake hands, and this can happen, because we have worked so hard against
racism and discrimination." Yesterday's advice to the victims of on-field racism. 2. "Let [...]

Love Han Berger - love his work and what he's doing for the game in Australia but there are a
couple of areas where he and the FFA Technical Group need to improve and could improve our players,
all our players more quickly.
The revolution is on - for some, but very slowly in some areas.
In Canberra for example in clubland we are a long long way behind what constitutes technical
development.
In an all-Tanzanian affair the Kagame Inter-Club Cup, a tournament for clubs from east and
central Africa, has been won by Young Africans Football Club following a narrow 1-0 victory over
arch-rivals Simba Sports Club.
The game was always going to be a close affair with Tanzania's two most decorated club sides
facing each other in the final.
Liverpool striker Luis Suarez has played down the hype surrounding his reunion with Sunderland's
Asamoah Gyan on Sunday.
Uruguay international Suarez was sent off for a deliberate handball which prevented Ghana from
progressing to the semi-finals of the World Cup last summer.
Gyan missed the subsequent penalty and the Africans suffered further misery from the spot as
Uruguay advanced to the last four via a shootout.
Mais um jogo da Cecafa 2010, foi realizado no dia 08/12/2010, na cidade de Dar es Salaam-TAN, no
Benjamin Mkapa National Stadium, onde jogaram as seleções da Tanzânia (124º no ranking da FIFA)
e a seleção de Ruanda (127º no ranking da FIFA).
Antes desse jogo, as 2 seleções nunca haviam jogado.
Liverpool have officially completed the signing of Luis Suarez from Ajax for a fee of around €27
(£23) million.
After a transfer deadline day which saw the headlines stolen by the moves involving Fernando Torres
and Andy Carroll, the lack of confirmation over Suarez's switch fell under the radar.
Ex-Togo international Emmanuel Adebayor has completed his move from the stands of the Eastlands
to a place on the pitch at the Bernabéu. It's no shock that he was destined to make a move in this
transfer window, seeing as he'd fallen to fifth in the Man City striker pecking order (behind even
Jo, of all people).
