Kuala Lumpur: The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has nominated Mohamed Waad (pictured) – the Qatar national team defender and Al Sadd member – for the Best Young Players Under-23 Award for 2020. In the final count, winners in four categories will be picked by 60% voters from the public while 40% will by football experts from Asia. Waad presented distinguished levels during the year 2020 to reserve his position in the starting line-up of Al Sadd and eventually seal his place in the Qatar national side. He made his Qatar debut with a match against Bangladesh in the FIFA World Cup and AFC Asian Cup joint-qualifiers last year.
colonel cedric lateny. good morning to you. starting with breaking news. six people were killed in the u.s. air strikes in syria. this is according to a televised statement by the armed forces general command. we re still learning about the effectiveness of the strike. is this, above all, meant to send a message to the assad regime? well, good morning, dave. i think it is. and the reason it s a message is because of the air base that was selected as a target. this air base was used, obviously, as the base from which the su-23, mig-23 aircraft were used to go after the idlib province targets they went after. when they did this, what the u.s. was doing, they were telling the syrian regime, that we know that you used this as the base from which you launched your aircraft.
