Real Madrid’s poor run of form

Real Madrid has suddenly seen a recent slump in their form after they lost their la liga match to Girona 2-1 in the weekend and again lost their champions league group stage match against Tottenham Hotspur 3-1. Real Madrid’s defence was no match to Tottenham’s attacking trio of Hary Keane, Dele Alli and Ericksen. The absence of Keylor Navas from goal and Varane and Carvajal from defense due to injury, was the main reason of the lackluster display of Real Madrid’s defense, which led to the breaking of the record of never losing a champions league group stage match to any English club. This new team without Pepe, Danillo, Morata and James lacks in depth of the squad which also played a major role as many of the star players are injured. Bale and Kovacic are injured too for months.

Zidane : “We weren’t able to get the result today. We’ve lost a league match and a Champions League match. That’s two defeats in a row and we can’t be happy, neither can we be emotional. It’s a bad time, but you have to accept it. When you win it’s accepted and we’re happy. When you lose you have to hold your head up high and think that this is football and we have a lot of games still to play and time to turn this around and that is what we’re going to do”.

Following the clash between Real Madrid and Tottenham at Wembley, Sergio Ramos spoke to the press about the result: “The score line is a bit deceptive, not to take anything away from Tottenham. They played very well, they’re a great side, with a great stadium and fans who really make a difference. We’ve benefitted from Borussia Dortmund’s draw and we’re still well in the mix. We would have liked the result to be different, and to be fighting to be top of the group. We did certain things quite well but that’s overshadowed by the result. We understand that the fans could get disillusioned after recent results, but Real Madrid always fight back and if anyone thinks that we’re done for, we’ll put them in their place. From my experience at Real Madrid, when you lose a couple of games, people begin to talk about a crisis. You have to stay calm and be united. We’re alive in our favourite competition, the Champions League. We must stay calm, remain united and convinced that the Real Madrid we know will be back very soon”.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored Real Madrid’s goal in what was their first ever competitive game at Wembley, and he spoke to the press after the final whistle: “It’s a bad result because we’re used to winning. We’re on a poor run but we want to change it and I’m sure we’re going to do so. It’s just the beginning, we’ve got a long time to improve and I’m convinced we can do it”.

“We can’t play great all the time, we have to change things and admit we’re not where we wanted to be, but we must stay calm. I don’t think things are too bad, I don’t think the team is playing that badly, so we have to keep the faith. We’ve got to stay positive, because it’s the end the counts, not the beginning”.

Modric: “We must keep going and look for answers. Tottenham deserved to win and we must move forward and try to find solutions to get out of this run. It’s not nice but we’ve been like this before and we’ve always come out of these situations. I’m sure we’ll do it again”.

“It is not a physical or mental problem because we’re physically in good shape. The biggest problem is how we’re playing, we’re not playing like we can and as we have done for a long time. We have to do everything possible to re-find our style of play. We’ve not played how we’d like and we’ll have to find out why that is”.

bdsv

And, at last a good news for all the madridistas out there. Gareth Bale has returned to training and we can expect him to play within few matches only, which can be huge moral boost for the whole squad.

Tottenham topped their group and sealed passage into the Champions League knockout stages as Dele Alli inspired a 3-1 win over Real Madrid on a magical night at Wembley. On a night where the Champions League holders were well off the pace, Spurs humiliated the European champions. Although this was only a group stage encounter it will live in the memory of the Spur’s fans for many, many years to come.

They haven’t just beaten Real Madrid, becoming the first team to win a group game against the EURO CHAMPS since 2012, but simply they’ve outplayed them.
Dele and Christian Eriksen were the scorer’s for the Spur’s where it was only Ronaldo for Real Madrid. Madrid’s poor defence and their inability to resist the counter attacks resulted for their loss this night.The crowd at Wembley was mesmerizing as they never stopped to cheer the home team.
“Real Madrid always bounce back and I’m sure we’ll see the team we saw in Cardiff come back”, said Modric.
Real Madrid travel to play Sporting Lisbon on Tuesday evening (20:45 CET) requiring a point to qualify from Champions League group F.

On the other hand Aguero becomes City’s record scorer with other day’s match result : Napoli 2-4 Man City.

Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich, unsurprisingly, will qualify from Group B, with both going through in different fashions. PSG routed Anderlecht for a second straight match behind a hat trick from Layvin Kurzawa, while Bayern conceded late but went back ahead through Javi Martinez to secure a 2-1 win at Celtic.

Elsewhere, Roma thrashed Chelsea 3-0 in a rematch after their 3-3 draw in London, while Manchester United easily handled Benfica 2-0.

Google Pixel 2 vs iPhone 8

So The Battle has begun Between The 2 Premium Phones : Google Pixel 2 & iPhone 8. See Who wins It….

After the launch of iPhone 8, Google has finally brought the Google Pixel 2. Google Pixel will be available from November 2017(1st of the month for Indian customers). You might get confused which 1 to buy so we have brought you the best between the 2 of them. Excited to know who has won the battle? Well then let’s start off the battle :

Design :

Well none of them look astonishing, but in comparison with Pixel 2, iPhone is much better in looks. Due to the all-glass backs iPhone 8 is more elegant, also they support wireless charging too.

The Pixel 2 measures 5.7 x 2.7 x 0.3 inches and weighs 5.01 ounces, while the iPhone 8 is 5.5 x 2.7 x 0.29 inches and weighs 5.22 ounces. So Google gets points here for delivering a bigger 5-inch screen (versus 4.7 inches) in a lighter design.

The Pixel 2 XL delivers a 6-inch screen in a 6.2 x 3 x 0.3-inch package that weighs 6.2 ounces, while the iPhone 8 Plus (6.24 x 3.1 x 0.3 inches, 7.13 ounces) is taller and wider and heavier, despite having a smaller 5.5-inch screen.

Overall iPhone 8 wins because of the premium glass back design and its comfortable feel.

[slideshow_deploy id=’319′]

Performance :

Pixel has just been kicked off in this segment. Apple’s A11 Bionic chip has paced the iPhone to record-breaking results in synthetic benchmarks, but it also outpaced the Pixel 2 on real-world tests. Though Pixel has 4GB RAM but the Embedded M11 Motion Coprocessor Processor in iPhone 8 makes it run the fastest. On Geekbench, which measures overall performance, the iPhone 8 hit 10,170, compared with 6,282 for the Pixel 2.

No doubts at all iPhone 8 is the king.

Display :

Well in this section Pixel 2 has gained a lead over iPhone 8 finally. The Pixel 2 has OLED panel and the 5-inch Pixel 2 (1920 x 1080 pixels) look richer and more saturated, and whites are more of a pure white. With the 4.7-inch iPhone 8 (1334 x 750) gives much sharper images rather than the Pixel 2. Unlike Google’s phones, the new iPhones sport True Tone displays, which means the white balance on the screen automatically adjusts based on ambient light; this could make reading easier on the eyes.

So Pixel 2 has a much richer screen than the iPhone 8.

Camera :

Well this section does matter a lot to customers, let’s see who wins. According to tom’s guide, iPhone 8 and 8 Plus have the edge when it comes to sheer photo quality. Apple’s handset delivered more vibrant colors and better contrast in a series of shots. With 12.2 MP the Pixel 2 offers better detail and more consistent exposure. Plus, both the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL are capable of taking Portrait shots that blur out the background from both the front and back cameras, thanks to advanced post processing. iPhone 8’s advanced 12 MP rear camera packs a larger and faster sensor, a new color filter, deeper pixels, and optical image stabilization for photos and videos. The camera enables digital zoom up to 5x. Also the iPhone 8 Plus can do portraits with its dual back cameras.

No doubts that iPhone 8 has beaten Pixel 8 straightaway.

Battery Life :

The Pixel 2 has beaten i[hone 8 in this segment. With its 2700 mah battery, it lasts much longer than the Apple’s beast. According to Tom’s Guide Battery Test, which involves continuous web surfing over LTE, the Pixel 2 lasted 11 hours and 7 minutes, and the Pixel 2 hit 12:09.

At the end of the day Pixel 2 lasts longer.

Special Features :

Both support wireless charging but iPhone 8 has the advantage over the Google phone because but Pixel 2 don’t support the Qi standard, so they simply won’t work with a growing number of wireless charging pads. But Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL offer more compelling special features overall, as Google Assistant is smarter and more versatile than Siri, and you can access it with just a quick squeeze of the bottom of the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL. With the new Google Lens feature can recognize objects (anything from landmarks to businesses to signs with phone numbers) so you can instantly act on that info. Also with accessories like Daydream headset for VR and Pixel Buds the phone is more smarter.

Google assistant is a better personal assistant than Siri.

Watch the trailer for “Son of Jaguar,” an interactive, 360°, VR tale, created and directed by Jorge Gutierrez. Watch the full 360 film here: https://bit.ly/2IIPknJ In the most important match of his life, the once mighty masked luchador, Son of Jaguar, faces his legacy, his family, and what it means to be a part of something bigger than himself.

Cost :

Pixel 2 is cheaper a bit than the iPhone 8. Pixel 2 will cost you $649 with 64GB of storage. You can up that to 128GB for $100 more. The iPhone 8 starts at $699, and it will cost you an extra $150 to get 256GB of storage.

The Pixel 2 XL starts at a fairly high $849 for 64GB, and you’ll pay $949 for 128GB of storage. The iPhone 8 Plus has a lower starting price of $799, but you’ll pay $949 at the top end for twice the storage of the Pixel 2 XL at 256GB.

The Pixel 2 is the better value than the iPhone 8, but the iPhone 8 Plus is cheaper than the Pixel 2 XL.

So, we can conclude that in respect to all aspects iPhone 8 is more valuable and better than the Google Phone. The iPhone 8’s strongest wins come in the camera and performance categories, and it has a slight edge in design.

Brazil Vs England U-17 : England 3 (Brewster 10′, 39′, 77′) – Brazil 1 (Wesley 21′)

England played against Brazil in the semi-final of the Under-17 World Cup in Kolkata, as the match got cancelled in Guwahati, India. On Wednesday afternoon as they attemptef to replicate the achievements of the Under-20s and win the entire tournament.

The Young Lions won their group stage by defeating their opponents like Iraq, Mexico and Chile, before defeating Japan on penalties in the last 16 and then the USA by four goals to one, for reaching this stage of the competition. Brazil had come from behind to beat Germany in an entertaining quarter final and are the slight favorite with the bookies to win this clash.

England’s star forward Jadon Sancho was recalled by Borussia Dortmund before the knock-out stages, having scored three goals in the group. Liverpool’s Rhian Brewster is England’s top scorer, with four goals and Manchester United youngster Angel Gomes is England’s second top scorer, with two.

Other players to watch out for include Man City’s Phil Foden, who impressed during pre-season, and Brazil’s Lincoln, who is a future wonder kid in Football Manager. They rarely get their scouting wrong.

It was quite warm in Kolkata – 29 degrees Celsius to be precise. And for the real weather fans, it’s 69 per cent humidity and 5 m/s wind.

And then the match kicked off.

England 1 (Brewster 10′) – 0 Brazil

Absolutely brilliant from England! They control their possession so well in the final third, linking passes around and showing excellent movement before the ball was chipped over the top of a crowded box into Brewster’s path.

England pass for goal

His first shot is straight at the keeper and saved… the second is buried! England lead Brazil!

England 1 – 1 (Wesley 21‘) Brazil

England don’t defend this particularly well but Paulinho’s smart one-two was the key to unlock the door. He gets the pass back, shoots and the goalkeeper parries. It falls to Wesley, who is a full-back, and he beats Latibeaudiere to the ball to put it into the bottom corner.

England 2 (Brewster 39′) – 1 Brazil

It’s the new Michael Owen! The ball is worked well by England out to the right, the cross comes across the box and Brewster is in the right place at the right time. Excellent positional awareness and he gets the finish right too, even if he nearly shanks it wide.

England leads!

England 3 (Brewster 77′) – 1 Brazil

Brewster is the hero of the day. But the skill and clever play of Phil Foden makes this one. Brewster’s movement and anticipation off the ball is excellent and he’s deserved his hat-trick but Foden’s beautiful little Cruyffish turn under pressure has turned a fairly harmless move into a goal. He lays it wide, the cross comes in and Brewster smashes in at the back post.

ENGLAND ARE IN THE WORLD CUP (under 17) FINAL!!!!!

MI Smart Band HRX Edition – Why You Should Buy?

Mi Along With HRX Has brought The Perfect Budget Smart Band

Mi recently brought the budget edition of the popular Mi Band 2, along with HRX. The Mi Band HRX Edition is only Rs 1.3k. Which is quiet cheap as compared to the specs that this band gives. HRX is a brand by Hrithik Roshan, which sells shoes, backpacks, t-shirts, sports vests and many good quality products. Mi has already become the 2nd smartphone maker in India. This has made people trust Mi. Now why you should buy it?

The Mi Band – HRX Edition is a watch and a fitness tracker built into one smart band. Whether you want to view time or check fitness stats – do all that and more by simply lifting your wrist and tapping the current time button. It’s as easy as that.

The band provides you these features :

OLED Display

In addition to checking time, you can also check the number of steps you’ve taken, your sleep patterns and more on the OLED display.

Improved Tracking Algorithm

Receive almost exact information regarding your fitness stats, all thanks to the improved tracking algorithm. It filters out unnecessary movements and accurately measures every step taken by you.

Idle Alerts

If you’ve been sitting for too long, the band vibrates during regular intervals to remind you that it’s time for a short walk or water break. This will help improve your blood circulation.

Mi Fit App

When synced with the Mi Fit app on your phone, it helps you monitor the distance covered, calories burnt and your sleep patterns in real time.

Easy to Unlock

Unlocking your phone has become easier and more secure as you don’t need passwords or fingerprints. All you need to do is bring the smart band near your Android smartphone and it will unlock instantly.

Call and Notification Alerts

This band ensures that you don’t miss calls, notifications and messages – especially when your phone isn’t near you. Once you pair it with your smartphone, you can receive notification alerts right on your wrist.

IP67 Certified

This fitness band is IP67 certified, making it resistant to sweat, cosmetics, dust, water splashes and corrosion.

Refined Inside and Out

The power-efficient OLED display is UV-treated and is resistant to scratches and fingerprints. The anodized button features 0.05 mm ripples etched across its surface for a better touch. You just need to tap on the button to conveniently check your latest stats. Within the sleek and stylish exterior lies a 2nd-generation, low-energy-consuming Bluetooth 4.0 chipset for fast connectivity and stable data transmissions. The lightweight, high-density lithium polymer battery can last for up to 23 days.

Fits Your Wrist Snugly

The snug and skin-friendly band holds the sensor tightly in place and prevents it from slipping, even during the most vigorous fitness sessions.

Tough and Durable

The smartband has been subjected to an environment that is as hot as 70°C and as cold as -20°C for 128 hours to test its endurance. It has also been drop tested 12 times from a height of 1.2 meters on a marble surface. Also, it has been corrosion tested by leaving it smeared with petroleum jelly for 24 hours.

To provide such great specs and 6 months warranty at only Rs 1.3k is unbelievable. It faces fierce competition with Lenovo, Intex and Fastrack Smart Bands too. After using this band we can tell you its very good band with accurate information. Its battery is very long i.e it can last up to 20 days easily.

So what are the cons of the watch :

DISPLAY: display could have been little bigger than what it’s having now. Like get in Lenovo or Honor band.
STRAP LOCK: Didn’t feel it to be much safer one, it might open on its own, after sometime of usage.

HEART RATE MONITOR MISSING: but fine for the price range and considering tag of Mi.
GYM WORKOUT: Not able to count calories during a gym workout, it’s fine because I don’t think in this range we’ll get so much out of it. It does counts the steps walked and gives us the calories burnt for that.
