Shocker As Angel Di Maria Mutes Retirement Plans, Says...

Argentina attacker Angel Di Maria revealed he was close to announcing his international retirement after the Copa America Centenario final loss.

Lionel Messi quit internationals, a decision he has since reversed, in the wake of the penalty shoot-out loss to Chile in June. Reports suggested numerous players, including Di Maria, were considering doing likewise.

The Paris Saint-Germain star said he was close to international retirement after a third straight final defeat, following on from the 2014 World Cup and 2015 Copa America. “When Messi retired, I thought about doing the same,” Di Maria told TyC Sports. “You can lose a final, but three in a row, that’s something different. I thought about leaving the national team, but my wife and my father stopped me.”

However, Di Maria, 28, warned he would call it quits if Argentina tasted defeat in another final.
“I almost started therapy, but in the end I decided it was something I had to figure out by myself,” he said. “If I lose another final, that’s it.”

BIAFRA: Why IPOB is heading To ECOWAS Court

Nnamdi Kanu

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has yesterday declared its intention to head to the EDOWAS Court following the continued detention without trial of its leader and Director of Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu.

The group is heading to the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, court to seek justice, since the Nigeria judiciary cannot deliver good judgment in the matter concerning his illegal detention. IPOB in a statement signed by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Mr. Emma Powerful alleged that “the withdrawal of the trial Judge, Justice John Tsoho is also another application of delay tactics to pave way for the continued detention of Mr. Kanu and not only because he wanted to save his face from shame”, adding that “the judge is still working with the Federal Government to convict Mr. Kanu by all means”.

IPOB’s statement read in part: “We IPOB and Directorate of State, DOS, IPOB, have concluded plans to take the continued illegal detention of our leader and Director of Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu to the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, court to seek justice for him since the courts in Nigeria have decided not to give him justice, in order to please their masters who have written the scripts the courts are playing.

“We want to tell the world that the withdrawal of the trial Judge, Mr. John Tsoho from the case is another way of continuing his detention and not only to save his name from the embarrassment he has caused himself with his role in the case. We know that he is still working with the Federal Government and Department of State Services, DSS, to convict Mr. Kanu either by hook or by crook.”
