Ancelotti dit n'avoir jamais douté que le Brésil marquerait

En 2026 Coupe du Monde des 32 matchs entre le Brésil et le Japon, le Brésil a remporté une victoire spectaculaire 2-1 à la 95e minute grâce à un but du remplaçant Gabriel Martinelli. La victoire a avancé le Brésil à la Coupe du Monde des 16 derniers, marquant le dernier cas d'un but gagnant de dernière minute dans les phases à élimination directe depuis 1966. Malgré le fait que le Japon menait 1-0 à la mi-temps en raison de quelques erreurs défensives du Brésil, l'équipe sud-américaine a dominé la seconde mi-temps avec des buts de Casemiro et Martinelli.

African Union calls emergency meeting as US ends Somalia army funds

The African Union (AU) has called an emergency meeting regarding its military mission in Somalia, AUSSOM, following the United States' announcement to terminate funding to the UN Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS). This funding supports AUSSOM, which provides around 12,000 troops to assist the Somali military in combating the Al-Shabaab insurgency. In a letter dated July 1, the U.S. stated it would stop funding UNSOS by the end of the year and block further UN logistical support to AUSSOM through the Security Council. The U.S. cited Somalia's failure to make progress against Al-Shabaab, take ownership of its security, or implement reforms. The AU and Somali government have not yet responded to requests for comment. Meanwhile, Somalia faces internal political instability due to recent constitutional changes that extended President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud's term, leading to opposition and violence. Analysts warn that the lack of progress in security and ongoing political conflict could allow Al-Shabaab to regain ground.

L'Américaine a le maximum de temps de récupération à Wimbledon.

The article discusses the scheduling of the first-round doubles match at Wimbledon involving American tennis player Serena Williams and her sister Venus Williams against the Argentine-Colombian pair Solana Sierra and Camila Osorio. The match was initially scheduled for Thursday and Friday but has been postponed due to Serena's injury during her singles match. Tournament organizer Andy Murray (likely a misstatement, as Andy Murray is a British player, and the correct name might be someone like Ashley Barker or another official) stated they are giving Serena as much time as possible to recover. They ruled out postponing the match to later dates unless necessary for safety or tournament flow. The match is expected to take place on a larger court to accommodate the large crowd attracted by Serena and Venus, who are major stars. Serena returned to professional tennis after four years, but she lost her first singles match and injured her knee. She did not attend a press conference afterward due to health reasons and expressed her commitment to participating in the doubles event. Serena and Venus have won six doubles titles together, including a title in 2016.

Rusko znovu útočilo na Ukrajinu, Kyjev truchlí po masivním úderu

Selon les autorités ukrainiennes, au moins deux personnes ont été tuées et huit blessées dans des frappes aériennes russes sur la région de Sumy et Kryvyj Rih en Ukraine dans la nuit de jeudi à vendredi. Cela fait suite à une attaque russe à grande échelle sur Kiev plus tôt dans la semaine qui a tué au moins 30 personnes et en a blessé environ 100 autres. En réponse aux attaques, l'Ukraine a mené des frappes de missiles sur Belgorod en Russie, provoquant un incendie dans une installation énergétique et tuant une femme, selon les médias russes. La frappe nocturne sur la ville de Romny dans la région de Sumy a frappé un immeuble résidentiel, tuant deux femmes et blessant un homme, a rapporté l'administrateur régional Oleh Hryhorov via Telegram. Sept autres personnes ont été blessées dans une frappe de missile sur Kryvyj Rih, selon l'administrateur militaire de la ville Oleksandr Vilkulov.

Education crisis demands leadership, investment, not policy changes – Obi

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), argues that Nigeria's education crisis requires sustained investment, strong leadership, and improved infrastructure rather than merely changing policies. He highlights the failure of the current policy separating junior and senior secondary schools, citing poor performance in recent West African Senior School Certificate Examinations (WASSCE). Obi criticizes the federal government for allocating less than 6% of the 2026 budget to education, well below UNESCO's recommended 15–20%. He points out that underfunding has prevented Nigeria from supporting students in international STEM competitions and contrasts this with the government's ability to fund foreign conferences. Obi references his tenure as Anambra State governor, during which significant investments in education led to improved outcomes, including large-scale laptop acquisitions recognized by HP Africa.

The Nigerian SME Growth Playbook: How Digital Tools Are Turning Ambition into Reality

The article discusses the role of digital tools in transforming the growth potential of Nigerian small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It highlights the resilience and ambition of Nigeria's nearly 40 million SMEs, which contribute significantly to the economy by driving innovation and job creation. According to Mastercard's SME Confidence Index, 81% of Nigerian SMEs are optimistic about the next year, with 68% expecting revenue growth. The report emphasizes the importance of digital payments for future success, noting that all surveyed businesses consider them essential. However, the article identifies a 'acceptance gap' between consumers who are ready to pay digitally and merchants unable to receive such payments due to high costs. Mastercard is addressing this issue through 'hardware-lite' solutions like QR-on-Card, which enable 1.8 million Nigerian SMEs and gig workers to accept payments without additional hardware. The piece also mentions challenges in cross-border transactions, citing the World Bank's data on high transaction costs in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The article reports that researchers from New Zealand’s Earth Sciences organization (ESNZ) have identified conditions consistent with the El Niño climate phenomenon in the tropical Pacific. They warn that impacts on New Zealand’s weather are likely to intensify over the coming months. The ESNZ joined other organizations in Australia, Japan, and the U.S. in confirming the development of El Niño, which is expected to reach strong intensity between July and September. The effects are projected to peak during the Southern Hemisphere summer, spanning late 2023 into early 2024. According to lead researcher Chris Brandolini, this El Niño event is at least comparable in strength to five of the strongest recorded El Niños in modern history. The article outlines regional rainfall expectations, noting potential below-average precipitation in some areas and above-normal levels in others. It also mentions possible temperature fluctuations and increased wind variability later in the year. Additionally, it notes two lower-probability risks: sudden stratospheric warming and the occurrence of a tropical cyclone outside the typical season, both historically linked to El Niño.

Media shouldn’t be a megaphone for terrorists – Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu addressed Nigerian journalists during the inaugural Presidential Press Corps dinner, urging them to prioritize national interests over sensationalism and avoid amplifying voices of terrorists or criminal groups. He emphasized that while freedom of expression and press freedom are vital to democracy, they come with responsibilities, especially amid ongoing security challenges. Tinubu warned against irresponsible reporting that could undermine national unity and security, stressing the importance of factual, contextualized journalism in the digital age. He acknowledged media scrutiny but called for balanced reporting that supports democratic values and public understanding of government actions. Tinubu also highlighted the role of laws like the Cybercrimes Act in protecting citizens from misinformation without infringing on press freedoms.
