GOA OUT OF ISL FINAL.

 

             ISL SOCCER FINAL MINUS  GOA.

        Ater its ignominious exit from the 1982 World Cup soccer tournament with  their most disastrous defeat from Italy coached by their foot-ballcrat team Manager Eanzo Berzot where their super star forward Paulo Rossi scored one of the most magnificent hat-tricks in the history of World soccer against the mighty Brazilian squad of which type Braizil never produced earlier even during Pele’s era though Pele was genious on the soccer field, the great Team Manager of Brazil Tele Santana after his team was ousted from that tourney by Italy, lamented saying “we had everything in our favour except luck which favoured the Italians”, till they won the final.  This was exactly what has happened two days back in the semi-final of ISL tourney for Goa where inspite of playing such a wonderful soccer some 0f their sharp shooters failed to shoot the ball into their opponent’s net. 

         When the then mighty soccer team recruited me for their team SESA GOA as a defender when I was still schooling at St. Joseph’s High School Arpora, their Coach Mr. Iqbal who was the only Coach in Goa then from Patiala qualified, while testing my efficiency on the first day, gave me the first test  of shooting the Panalty kick inspite of knowing that I am a defender but was satisfied after I attained the success.

           Yesterday it was very disastrous to see FC Goa’s stalwarts one after the other failing in their aims however, I don’t castigate those who failed in converting their spot kicks either during the first five penalties or during the sudden kill.  Even the highly successful spot kick takers in the World namely Brazilian Socrates and Zico, French Platini, Argentinian Maradona and during my  time in Goa, Socurro our left back at Vasco to cite a few relevant examples. The great Socrates who was Doctor when he played for Brazil and most expert in converting the penalty in the world, when he failed in converting  penalty for Brazil, said: It is agonising to make the  players to kick the  ball into the net from the spot kick after playing for regular 90 minutes plus  another 30 minutes extra time. It is difficult for any player to concentrate on penalty after playing 90 + 30 exhaustive minutes.  In such a situation, neither your legs do not move properly nor your mind.     

       All said and done, I must confess after watching all the previous tournaments from the beginning, this year’s edition was most wonderful and highly advanced in soccer though none was there having the experience of World Cup.  But almost all the foreign recruits indicated their calibre and the development of this game in their respective countries and clubs where they  play their soccer. First time it was shown how the game opens from  both the flanks,  how  the goalkeeping has improved, how the Brazilian mode of short passing is implemented and  so many other tecnics and tactics. The only drawback was the poor refereeing that was handled by those who  lacked  proper knowledge of laws and implementations.  Most of them suffered from inferiority complex especially when  they  blow their whistles for any infringement by the foreigners.  Such a poor state of refereeing was not seen in Europe, South America and elsewhere.  Besides, the stupidity of the Benchers by shouting  at the referees and other players was beyond my comprehension.

         I am sure henceforth Indian players will have better opportunities  to learn better ways of playing better soccer in the midst of their colleagues  from other parts of the World.

DEFECTION TO STOP BY ALL MEANS.

 

Defection is the worst criminal act a rascal elected member can commit and it is also the most dangerous option our constitution provides for our elected representatives to play the role of Judas of course without any shame. At least Judas being an extreme class of traitor yet he had shame and precisely because of this shame he committed a suicide.  But our so called dignified elected “chor” representatives  who are defecting do not care for anything other than for their own personal glories, accumulation of enormous amount of illicit weatlh and collection of innumerable concubines of their choice.  This is the craze of many of our elected representatives which they display only after getting elected because otherwise they are cowards.  In order not to disturb the democratic system of election in our land thru defection, I suggest that every contestant for the next general election must voluntarily arrange his own Affidavit legally processed saying he will not defect to any other party and remain faithful to his own party or Symbol on which he was elcted.. This will help us to put a brake to the faulty system of  “Aya Ram and Gaya Ram”  

 

If no voluntary move is done by the contestants then voters in every constituency must put heavy pressure on their contestants to submit this Affidavit but without this the voters must not   vote them.

VERY GOOD NEW KONKANI SONG "BEKAR BONVONAKA" ON U-TUBE .

One of the best songs I saw in the recent past was ‘BEKAR BONVONAKA” by Roberto D’Souza, Calangute and Nilesh Goltekar in the U-Tube today which is very meaningful and very relevant to this time when our youth are frittering away their precious time by recklessly spending the money of their parents without being productive.  These youth are habituated to waste their time doing nothing when they have so many opportunities and facilities too at their disposal especially in Goa where  outsiders built their financial empires while our youth especially our Christian mainly the Catholics found in greater number idling their time after nothing. While our parental care is unfortunately missed to our youth because many of them are brought up under the care of Unties and Granies since both the parents are busy working for the whole day, there remained nobody to discipline our sons and daughters to walk on the proper path, the last salvation for our youth is the propagators of Catholic Religion.  But they too are busy in doing something else which do not come under their priestly duties, they find no time to keep their watchful eyes on our out of the track going youth.  But when our youth goes out of the track, the priests' duties come into the picture because by drawing our youth out of the track the Satan enriches himaself immensely and that is the mission of Satan while Church leaders' mission is to prevent this.  

     Seen in both the above pictures are both the singers

The lyricist of this song Roberto D’Souza Calangute has done a very good job by composing  such a high quality song which is very much educative and since this is the case our “Bekar Louddi” youth must listen to this song and do something in life to earn their livelihood instead of becoming the burden on their parents.

Seen above is the field 

The composition of this song has got good quality with perfect rhyming and rendering it by both the singers since is a duo with good timing. Though they both are new to me at least they have indicated lot of enthusiasm and maturity in singing this song which is a must see – must listen by our ‘Bekar Empregad.”

The videography was done well and musical score provided by E]vis Pereira gave an added booster to this beautiful song.

Well done Robert and Nilesh and I congratulate you for this excellent job you did and at the same time hope you will come out with more of such high quality songs. 

Congratulations to you and to your entire team.
