Argentina's scores in the World Cup final against Spain

Argentina’s scores in the World Cup final against Spain

Never in the history of the finals had a team failed to take a single shot on the opponent’s goal during regular time. Argentina, a stingy team that only attacked when it was dying down, ended up with two chances in 125 minutes, and they offered no more football than countering Spain with order, forcefulness, and too often dirty play, foul tactics, and trickery. Unworthy of the three-time champions who aspired to their fourth crown. Only goalkeeper Dibu Martínez was spared from a very poor collective performance.

The Supreme Court before the European justice

The Supreme Court before the European justice

The ruling of the EU Court of Justice on the amnesty for the leaders of the procés is the culmination of the growing confrontation between Pedro Sánchez’s Government and the judiciary. The Executive barely hides it anymore and accuses some judges of acting in a twisted manner, driven by political motives. On the other side, magistrates holding positions in high courts and conservative judges’ associations consider themselves attacked in their independence. They even see themselves as the last defenders of the State against a Government they consider populist and capable of fostering the breakup of the State and the degradation of institutions in order to stay in power.

IU denounces a U.S. interest in causing a political crisis in the Government with its collaboration in the investigation of Zapatero

The spokesperson for Izquierda Unida, Enrique Santiago, stated this Thursday that he “has no doubt” that the United States “could have a political interest” in causing “a political crisis in the Government of Spain” and also “to punish those who may have worked to evade the illegal sanctions unilaterally imposed by the United States on Venezuela” for their collaboration in the investigation against the former president of the government José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero for, among other crimes, influence peddling in the case of the bailout of the airline Plus Ultra.

Bubble buses to go from the ‘Hondius’ to the plane: passengers seated in ‘zig-zag’ and separated by two meters

The 147 passengers of the Hondius cruise ship, which is heading to the Canary Islands after a hantavirus outbreak was detected, will disembark next Sunday at sea in groups of no more than five people and by nationality. From the cruise ship, they will transfer to some zodiacs arranged by the shipowner and from there they will head to the dock. Specifically, they will be transferred to a specific area of the port of Granadilla “that meets the highest biological containment measures.” Their luggage will be grouped by nationality and disinfected by the ship’s crew before disembarkation, within the protocol established by Foreign Health. If any passenger shows symptoms before arrival, they will disembark first to be referred to the isolation unit of the Hospital de la Candelaria and their luggage will be managed by the shipping company. They would never reach land. After them, close contacts will disembark grouped by nationalities.

Former president José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero is said to have used his influence within the government of Pedro Sánchez and that of Venezuelan Nicolás Maduro to conduct business, according to the judge of the National Court José Luis Calama, who has charged him. The question is: whom did he influence? The court order does not specify which senior government official or administration employee was influenced but, however, hints at meetings, encounters, contacts, or references regarding the moves that the former socialist leader and his network would have made to achieve the bailout of the airline Plus Ultra.
