Image
The former Red Devil appeared to be apologetic after scoring the decisive goal in Real Madrid's Champions League last 16 victory at Old Trafford on Tuesday night By Greg Stobart  at Old Trafford Cristiano Ronaldo has left the door open for a return to  Manchester United after firing Real Madrid in to the  Champions League quarter-finals on a “very emotional” night at Old Trafford.

Ronaldo received a hero’s reception from the home crowd and admitted it was a night of mixed emotions against his former club - who he has refused to rule out representing again despite insisting he is happy in Spain.

Dear LIB readers: Should I go back to my matrimonial home?

Image
From a LIB reader This is a true story and I need your urgent advise. I left my matrimonial home in January after I found out another woman was pregnant for my husband. I was six months pregnant then and the other lady was five. This woman is my husband's ex who he kept sleeping with until our wedding in September 2012. He told me he hasn't touched her since we got married but he got her pregnant a month before our wedding. I'm eight months pregnant now and I'm very angry and disappointed in myself for choosing a man who has humiliated so much. My family and friends are begging me to go back home, give my marriage a chance and have my baby there, but I don't know that I want to do that. I'm staying at my parents house at the moment and yes my husband is also begging. So on top of being angry, I'm also confused.

RMD denies N50 million fraud, my hands are clean he says

Image
RMD and Toolz at Iyanya's concert in Lagos According to Sahara Reporters, star actor and current Delta State commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Richard Mofe Damijo, is at the centre of an alleged fraudulent transfer of funds which the EFCC is supposedly currently investigating. The report claimed that RMD and the acting GM of the Delta State Tourism Board, Mrs Philo Nkem Ajufo, squandered N50 million belonging to the ministry (Google the story, it's all over the net). RMD has finally reacted to the allegations, insisting it's not true. "I won't respond to Sahara Reports. When it's time, I will. And I'm sure you know it's not true" He told Encomium magazine on March 3rd. RMD and Toolz hosted Iyanya's concert on Saturday and the governor of Delta State, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan was in the audience. The most interesting part of this allegation is that EFCC is yet to alert the nation of any fraud in Delta State.

Michel Platini claims a pan-continental Euro 2020 will be good for fans

Image
Michel Platini has claimed the pan-continental Euro 2020 will be good for fans - and gave a boost to British hopes of hosting some matches. President Platini said UEFA had held talks with fans group Football Supporters Europe and convinced it that the "zany" format of holding games in 13 matches across Europe would benefit the majority of supporters. The Football Association will bid for Wembley to host the final while Wales and Scotland will also bid for Euro 2020 games. Platini told reporters at a briefing in Nyon: "We have talked to the fans. They were against it originally but we told them we are going to help them and suddenly they had a much more positive attitude. "Certainly it will be easier for the English to go to Wales and Scotland to watch a match instead of having to travel the world. We have some decisions to make now - some political, some geographical - for example we cannot have an English fan going to Lisbon, Kazakhstan and...

Nigerian Idol top8: a big night for 3 contestants,but will it save them?

Image
Another night, and another fantastic episode of the smash reality television show, Nigerian Idol. After the rather painful departure of Joe Emmal and Amara, eight contestants are now left on the show, and they are bent on demonstrating to Nigeria that they have what it takes to be named the next Nigerian Idol. This week the theme was centred on songs from the greatest groups of all time, from The Temptations to the Pussycat Dolls. The contestants were on fire on Sunday night and with guest judge, first lady of rap Sasha P sitting on the panel, it was truly an amazing night. Sasha told the audience, “I'm waiting to be wowed by everybody...I'm rooting for every one of them and I'm waiting to be entertained The show began with the top eight belting out a song that personifies the disco era—‘We are Family’ by Sister Sledge, before Danny Angus tried his hand at the monster classic from the 60s, ‘My Girl’ by The Temptations. For the night, Danny shed the glasses and h...

Torres - Spain set standard Golden Boot winner reflects on Euro 2012 success

Image
Fernando Torres believes that in winning Euro 2012, record-breaking Spain have set the standard by which future international success will be measured. Vicente del Bosque's all-conquering outfit swept Italy aside on Sunday to claim back-to-back European Championship titles and their third consecutive tournament crown. Torres stepped off the bench in Kiev to net Spain's third goal in a 4-0 hammering of the Azzurri, helping himself to the Golden Boot in the process. He has been a leading figure in a squad which has now conquered the continent twice and lifted the 2010 World Cup, and the Chelsea striker feels Spain have taken the pursuit of international success to a new level. Torres told Marca : "You can't ask for more, but it is the work of the team and the togetherness that has brought us here. "You always want to win more and more, but right now we have to enjoy this. We have won by a distance against a great team like Italy. "We...
