La FIFA desestima la protesta realizada por Burkina Faso contra Argelia
La FIFA desestimó este martes la protesta presentada por la Federación de Burkina Faso sobre el partido de vuelta de la repesca mundialista ante Argelia, donde denunciaron la alineación indebiba de Madjid Bougherra, el autor del gol que permitió a los argelinos obtener el billete para el Mundial de Brasil.
La Federación de Burkina explicó a la FIFA que Bougherra incumplió la sanción que tenía pendiente del último partido, por acumulación de tarjetas amarillas, pero el máximo organismo del fútbol mundial aseguró que el jugador del Glasgow Rangers aún no había alcanzado el ciclo de amonestaciones.
De esta forma, el órgano que preside Joseph Blatter explicó a Burkina Faso que sus protestas no tienen fundamento y que no se cumplen requisitos formales para presentar una nueva queja. "No ha habido ninguna violación de las normas", dijo la FIFA, que no se pronunció sobre el último minuto de partido después de que se jugase hasta el 93 habiendo añadido cuatro.

Norwegian Foreign Minister inaugurates ‘Norway Football Fields’ in Za’atari Refugee Camp
Norway’s Foreign Minister Børge Brende inaugurated today the Norway Football Field for Girls at the Za’atari Syrian refugee camp in Northern Jordan during his one day visit to the Kingdom.
Foreign Minister Brende also checked on progress of the second Norway Football Field in Za’atari that is set to be complete next month.
The Norway Football Fields and the Norway Football Fields for Girls encompasses the Government of Norway’s support for Syrian children and youth, which represent more than 50 percent of the refugee population hosted at the UNHCR run camp in Za’atari.
The opening ceremony included football activities for young Syrian girls as well as Syrian coaches residing in Za’atari trained by Jordanian and European coaches.
The Government of Norway recognizes that the rehabilitation and caretaking of Syrian children and youth at risk is integral to addressing the Syrian refugee crisis.
The world’s most popular sport, football plays a key role to help Syrian children cope with the hardship of displacement and instability.
As members of the Human Security Network, both Norway and Jordan share common values and goals concerning the safety of children in armed conflict and the security of individuals threatened by war and conflict.
Addressing the young Syrian girls at the football field, Foreign Minister Brende said; “this football field cannot remove the hardship you are going through. But I hope it could give encouragement at a personal and a community level.”
“I believe that football, through its universality, its ability to make us cooperate and overcome barriers, and its accessibility to girls and boys from all backgrounds can connect us and teach us how to best cooperate to achieve our goals,” he noted.
The Za’atari football fields comprise two of the eight football fields the Government of Norway is supporting throughout Northern Jordan, where the majority of Syrian refugees are currently hosted. The other football fields, currently under construction or renovation include two in Azraq, one in Ramtha, two in Mafraq schools (one for boys and one girls) and one in Al Sareeh sport club.
“I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the Norwegian Football Association and Mr. Per Ravn Omdal; the Jordan Football Association and His Royal Highness Prince Ali bin Hussein; and everyone else who has contributed to making this project possible,” added Foreign Minister Brende.
The Norway Football Fields project is led by the Football Association of Norway (NFF), in cooperation with the Jordan Football Association (JFA) and the Amman based NGO; the Asian Football Development Project (AFDP).
“Through our partnerships in Jordan with JFA, AFDP and other NGOs working in the field, the NFF will not only provide football activities for Syrian children, but also train Syrian coaches; both men and women,” commented Mr. Per Ravn Omdal , Project Manager of the Norway Football Fields and Honorary President of the Football Association of Norway.
“Progress is underway in the six Norway Football Fields we are supporting. We expect that all projects will be complete by March 15th 2014, as agreed with our partners, which also includes the Jordan Ministry of Education,” Mr. Omdal added.
Commenting on the Norway Football Fields project, HRH Prince Ali Bin Al Hussein, President of the Jordan Football Association, founder and chairman of the Asian Football Development Project expressed Jordan’s appreciation for Norway’s support.
“We are very grateful to our colleagues and friends from Norway for their generous support in building and restoring football pitches in Northern Jordan. We enjoy a vibrant partnership with the Football Association of Norway and we look forward to more cooperation in the future, in the best interest of our young boys and girls,” said Prince Ali.
“Football is indeed a powerful medium to bring people together. It has certainly helped raise hope for children in Za’atari,” he added.
Representing HRH Prince Ali were Dr. Fayez Abu Arida from JFA and Ms. Merissa Khurma of AFDP. The launch was also attended by UNHCR representative Andrew Harper, Za’atari camp manager Kilian Kleinschmidt as well as representatives of International Relief and Development (IRD) and the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC).

Alex Gómez Comes se va del Kitchee( Hong-Kong)
Se acabó la aventura de Alex Gómez Comes en Hong Kong. El joven técnico catalán ha decidido, de mutuo acuerdo con el presidente, dejar el Kitchee y regresar para casa. No es un problema de resultados. Gómez Comes le ha dado al Kitchee el mejor inicio de liga de su historia y lo deja como líder y sin haber perdido ningún partido.
Pero en la vida no todo son resultados. Hay otras cosas importantes, como explica el propio técnico a SPORT.es "Mis puntos de vista son muy diferentes a los de los responsables del club. Vengo del Barça y entiendo el fútbol según el talento, la manera de ser de los jugadores y, especialmente, según el esfuerzo en los entrenamientos y en los partidos". Pero el presidente del Kitchee no pensaba igual. "No estaba dispuesto a cambiar mi filosofía del fútbol y eso me ha costado el cargo", explica. Y lo hace sin dudas. "Me voy con el convencimiento de que la integridad es el valor más fuerte de un entrenador profesional". El técnico agradece además, "el apoyo de los jugadores y del staff del club".
Alex Gómez Comes fichó esta temporada por el Kitchee para sustituir a otro técnico formado en Can Barça, Josep Gombau. Dejó el fútbol formativo del FC Barcelona (era el entrenador del alevín C) para probar la aventura en Hong Kong. Ahora, se tomará solo unos días de descanso antes de volver a Catalunya. No tiene ofertas en firme, pero sabe que no le faltarán...

Today Jordan-Uruguay, 1º match playoff by a place in World Cup 2014
More than two years after taking their first step down the road to the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™,Jordan's long and valiant qualifying campaign is about to reach its climax. The final stride will undoubtedly be the most difficult too, with the Asian hopefuls due to face Uruguay in the intercontinental play-off. Fourth at South Africa 2010 and two-time former winners, the South American side look to be a formidable obstacle, meaning Jordan will need to surpass themselves from the very first whistle of Wednesday's opening leg.
The schedule
Wednesday 13 November
Jordan-Uruguay (Amman,
The match
Nobody in Jordan expected their national side to reach even this far. Never before have Al-Nashamastood so close to their World Cup dream, and they could even have qualified automatically had they not dropped so many costly points after historic wins against Japan and Australia.
Ultimately they were left facing a play-off with Uzbekistan, and after coming out on top of an epic penalty shoot-out, they remain in the hunt for a coveted ticket to Brazil. Clinching their place among the elite will be no easy task, though, and it will be a case of winner takes all when they tackleUruguay for the first time over two legs.
Their South American rivals boast a rich history and a line-up brimming with gifted players, but Jordanhave their hearts set on making a positive start on home soil, anxious to keep their hopes alive for next Wednesday's decider.
As for La Celeste, they have no intention of missing out on a World Cup in neighbouring Brazil, where they clinched the second of their global titles in 1950. Oscar Tabarez's charges nonetheless struggled to impress during the group stage in South America, desperately toiling to break into the top four only to find themselves in fifth once the dust had settled. That has left them facing a trip into the unknown, but Uruguay will be determined to make their individual and collective qualities count to seal qualification at all costs.
The stat
4 – This is the fourth time Uruguay have contested the play-offs. La Celeste prevailed against Australia in 2002 and Costa Rica in 2010 but lost out to the Socceroos in 2006. Ahead of the finals in Germany, the two teams traded 1-0 home wins in Montevideo and Sydney before Uruguay finished second best on penalties.
Players to watch
Many eyes will be focused on Uruguay's strike partnership of Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez, and the Liverpool striker will surely merit special attention from Jordan's defence. Suarez topped the scoring charts during South American qualifying thanks to a tally of 11 goals that not even Lionel Messi could match, and since serving his suspension in the Premier League he has been in devastating form, finding the net eight times in six outings for the Reds this term.
Jordan have talent in their ranks too, even if the gulf between the two teams may appear immense. Above all, fans across the country will be hoping for big things from forward Ahmad Ibrahim, the second highest scorer in Asian qualifying courtesy of seven strikes in 18 games.

They said"The match is of very important for this generation of players; this is first time Jordan has been so close to qualifying. We should have the courage and self-confidence to achieve our goal," Hossam Hassan, Jordan coach.
"I do not know much about the Jordan team, but it seems they will put everything on the pitch to qualify, and I have followed their matches against Uzbekistan and Oman, and we will respect them. No one can predict who will win tomorrow, Jordan will give everything they have and we will do the same," Oscar Tabarez, Uruguay coach.
