What should we read and see today? 39; hui?
[19659006] L & # 39; crew. On the case of the two German national players Mesut Özil and Ilkay Gündogan, the "Süddeutsche Zeitung" takes a decisive position: the national team must stand out from the racists, she writes. After the start of the selection of the DFB, the two national players of Turkish origin were portrayed not only as scapegoats but also as victims of racist attacks.
With what specialized knowledge can I shine today as an expert?
100% accurate . The Englishman Harry Kane is with five goals so far the top scorer of this World Cup. However, the record of goals scored in a single World Cup since 1958 should not fall in Russia: the French Just Fontaine scored 13 goals in six games in World Cup 60 years ago in Sweden, won by Pelé . The central striker who played for Stade Reims at that time only needed 18 shots on goal for his thirteen goals, which equates to a 72% goal rate – a great value. An even better level of accuracy shows Harry Kane. He scored his five goals with five shots on goal. Success rate? 100%. Kane continues to be so precise, he has to theoretically in the knockout phase just nine times scoring to beat Fontaine. By the way, the German Miroslav Klose has scored most of the World Cup goals up here. However, Klose summed up a total of 16 World Cup goals in four different World Cup finals (2002-2014).
