Nelson Umbongo scored 123 goals in 123 games for Rorke's Drift United and 45 International goals for the Zulu national team. He moved to Namibian champions Zebra FC and was largely ineffective.

 

He was played out of position what do you expect. Zulu's like to spearhead the attack

Rubbish the best the Zulu's looked tatically was under Shaka when he implemented the Horns of the Bull

Shaka played with deep lying central forwards and touch line hugging wingers. The deep lying forwards allowed the opposing defenders to bring the ball out before engaging, then the midfield swarmed them, and the wingers tucked in. Jolly deadly old man.

Juventus beat Milan 2-1 thanks to a Dybala penalty, awarded right at the end of 4 minutes of stoppage time. It was a harsh decision I think. The ball did catch the defender's hand as he went to block a cross, but it was hit at him from point blank range and he wasn't trying to block it with his hand, he just couldn't get it out of the way quickly enough. Juventus have won something like 30 home league games on the bounce now.

Milan's keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma has had a lot of hype around him but to be fair, much of it looks justified. He looks like a more experienced keeper than he is, in much the same way Buffon did a couple of decades ago. He looks rock solid in all aspects of goalkeeping, and there's an assurance about him that must be a bonus for his defenders.

Mad to think that Milan Baros scored 41 international goals in 93 appearances.

In fact, between 2001 and 2006 he scored 30 goals in 53 games.

 

He also scored 48 goals in 93 games for Galatasaray.

What is madder is that he was here for over 4 years and scored 19 goals.

He was one of those players who was always shit-hot for his national team but flattered to deceive at club level. He was superb at Euro 2004 and I really thought he would kick on for us based on that.
