Hazard hopes for Ballon d'Or




Chelsea midfielder Eden Hazard believes he does not have to move to La Liga to fulfil his ambition of winning the Ballon d'Or.
Eden Hazard admits that after Chelsea's expected Premier League title triumph, he will have one eye on the Ballon d'Or.
Should either Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo win again in 2017, the pair will have dominated the award for 10 years, but Hazard believes it can be won by a player in England.Ahead of Chelsea's clash with West Brom on Friday night, where three points will crown them Premier League.
W Brom vs Chelsea
"It's in my mind. If I don't, it won't be a problem. I try to make a good career - the best I can - but I think some other players deserve to win it also.
"When Ronaldo and Messi retire, maybe it will be another couple of players like Neymar, Paulo Dybala or Antoine Griezmann, who knows? We will see. It's not something I think too much about.
"Could I win it? If I play next season, we win the Champions League and I win the World Cup with Belgium, why not?
"In the last 10 years, the Ballon d'Or winners play in Spain, but it's not automatic.
If a player is better in England, he will win it." Eden Hazard believes Antonio Conte is one of the world's top managers.
Hazard narrowly missed out on the PFA Player of the Year award to team-mate N'Golo Kante last week but the winger has been instrumental once again to Chelsea's success.
"We want to celebrate on Friday, then come back to Stamford Bridge and celebrate with the fans," he said.
"We just need to win the game. We all know if we win, we will be champions, so maybe we have a lot of pressure, but we are almost there.
"For me, it's the same (feeling as when we won the title two years ago). The target is always to win trophies.
The feeling is always a good one. Two years ago to now, we have one thing in common, which is to win."

Jose Mourinho rues 'naive' Bailly's Red Card

Jose Mourinho admitted Manchester United defender Eric Bailly had been naive to allow himself to be baited into the red card against Celta Vigo that rules him out of the Europa League final.

Manchester United Qualified for Europa Final with a 1-1 victory with Celta Devigo

Bailly was sent off along with Celta's Facundo Roncaglia after a bout of pushing and shoving involving players from both teams in the final minutes of the 1-1 semifinal second leg draw at Old Trafford.


The Ivory Coast centre-back will be suspended for the final against Ajax in Stockholm later this month, leaving United manager Mourinho to grumble about Roncaglia's provocation and his player's needless reaction.

"I didn't see the red card incident but Eric Bailly was phenomenal. The game was emotional for everyone. Some kept control better than others,

" Mourinho said. "Facundo Roncaglia is not new in these situations, Bailly was probably naive. We now lose a very important player for the final, and we don't have many."



Holding a 1-0 lead from the first leg, United opted for a cautious approach that saw Celta dominate possession for long periods.

United snatched the lead through Marouane Fellaini's first half header, but Roncaglia equalised and, after Celta almost won it late on, Mourinho conceded his team once again lacked a cutting edge.


"We were the best team in the first leg but we never kill, we never score goals related to the chances we have," he said after the 2-1 aggregate victory😸

"Celta were completely free of responsibility and gave us a very hard match. We suffered until the end and it was open until the last second.

"The boys gave everything they had. I'm really pleased for them."
United will qualify for the.

Champions League if they beat Ajax and Mourinho added: "After 14 matches we are in the final. If we win the Europa League I'm more than happy. It would be amazing."

Manchester United Reach Europa Final With A Draw of 1-1 victory

Manchester United survived a sizeable scare to reach their first Europa League final after a nervy 1-1 draw with Celta Vigo at Old Trafford on Thursday completed a 2-1 aggregate victory.

Marouane Fellaini's 17th-minute header put United 2-0 up on aggregate, but Celta  Devigo hit back late on through Facundo Roncaglia, who was then sent off along with United's Eric Bailly following a centre-circle shoving contest.



United will play a youthful Ajax team in the final at Stockholm's Friends Arena on May 24, when they can complete their trophy collection and -- perhaps more importantly -- book a place in next season's Champions League.



"We suffered until the end and it was open until the last second," United manager Jose Mourinho told BT Sport.



"After 14 matches we are in the final. If we win the Europa League I am more than happy. It would be amazing."Mourinho will have to do without influential centre-back Bailly, whose suspension leaves Chis Smalling, Phil Jones and Daley Blind as United's only available central defenders.



With Mourinho having publicly abandoned hope of a top-four finish in the Premier League, after his side fell four points off the Champions League berths, United's season would have effectively been over had they gone out.



Instead they have a chance to add a second big trophy to the League Cup won in February and allow Mourinho to end a complicated maiden campaign as manager by winning the fourth major European honour of his career.




Appearing in their first European semifinal, Eduardo Berizzo's Celta gave United several uncomfortable moments and there was panic in the hosts' box during the fraught closing stages.



Both managers reverted to the teams that had started last week's first leg, which meant a United return for Paul Pogba, whose world-record transfer from Juventus is being investigated by Fifa.




United started shakily, with Blind looking particularly uncertain, and there were early murmurs of concern around Old Trafford when Iago Aspas cut in from the right and obliged Sergio Romero to tip his rasping shot over.
LYON GO CLOSE




An audacious juggling show from Pogba roused the crowd and United tightened their grip on the tie when Marcus Rashford's sumptuous cross from the left was headed in at the back post by Fellaini.



The goal had the effect of freeing United from their shackles, with Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Jesse Lingard and Pogba all arrowing shots over the bar.




But Celta served reminders of their threat as the first half drew to a close, Pablo Hernandez, Pione Sisto and John Guidetti working Romero and Daniel Wass heading wide from Sisto's dangerous drilled cross.



Celta continued to probe in the second half, with Guidetti thrashing inches wide from Sisto's lay-off and heading offs target from Mallo's cross.

United also had their moments, Celta goalkeeper Sergio Alvarez saving from Mkhitaryan and Fellaini and producing a smart block to thwart Rashford after the 19-year-old had jinked his way past two defenders.



Roncaglia's looping 85th-minute header set the scene for a nerve-wracking finale, but despite losing Bailly, United held on.



Ajax looked to have killed their tie against Lyon following their 4-1 home win in last week's home leg when Kasper Dolberg gave them a 27th-minute lead.



But a quick-fire double right at the end of the first period from Alexandre Lacazette -- the first from the penalty spot -- gave the French side hope.



Substitute Rachid Ghezzal's heavily deflected header nine minutes from time made it 3-1 on the night and Dutch international Nick Viergever's sending-off gave Lyon extra impetus.



But they could not find an all-important fourth to send the tie into extra-time.



Instead, Ajax will play their first final in this competition since winning the trophy in 1992 and their first European final since losing to Juventus in the Champions League in 1996.

Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB seek justice, says Ekwueme

Ekwueme also said that IPOB’s agitation is pursuant to equity among all peoples of Nigeria, particularly the Igbo.

The former Vice President made the remarks, yesterday, when the IPOB leader visited him in his Enugu residence.

He said he was happy to receive Kanu in his house and promised to privately offer his advice to him on how to carry on with his agitation for restoration of a Biafra republic.


Former Vice President Alex Ekwueme and Independent People of Biafra’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu during Kanu’s visit to the former Vice President, in Enugu on Wednesday.

Ekwueme said: “For me, it is a pleasure receiving Nnamdi Kanu in my humble abode here today after all his travails in the last few months.

I thank God that he is free and able to move around and for me to be able to see him here in this house.

“It is a pleasure for me to receive him. I will make my best counsel available in his task of leading an agitation that is committed to maintenance of justice and equity among all peoples, especially our people.”

The IPOB leader, Kanu, told Ekwueme that he was in his house to seek his wise counsel, noting, he had learnt one or two things from the former Vice President that he never read in history text books in his life.

Kanu said he found Ekwueme invaluable in the advancement of Igbo people, particularly as his (Kanu’s) activities were strived to make life better for the masses.


“I am humbled and delighted to be here before you and also to bring you up-to-date on what we have been doing; what motivates me to do what I do and what motivates IPOB today to do what we have been doing.

“It’s to give an expression to the yearnings and aspirations for a better society.

That’s what we are trying to do, because the sum total of all the activities of IPOB is to ensure that there is dignity of life and for us to fulfill that simple mission, we must be very diligent, we must be focused, sincere and we must also be very honest.

Anything you tell me to do is what we are going to do as far as it advances our collective cause as a people and pushes us to the pinnacle of success on what we want to do.”

Ekwueme met Kanu behind closed doors.

Look inward, create jobs, Buhari charges tertiary institutions

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has called on higher institutions in the country to look inward and diversify the nation’s economy to curtail unemployment in the country.

The President’s charge came on the heels of the Gombe State governor’s call on Nigerians to hold governors accountable if democratic dividends were not delivered because dividends of democracy will douse tension in any aggrieved section of the country.

The President, who was represented by the Minister of State for Health,

Dr.  Osagie Ehanire, in a goodwill message at the 18th Founder’s Day Ceremony of the Igbinedion University Okada, near Benin, said investment in agriculture, improved electricity supply and industrialization would provide job opportunities for the unemployed in the country and reduce restiveness.

He noted that the education sector has witnessed series of challenges in recent times but said the government, within its capacity, has done much to improve on its standard.

President Muhammadu Buhari
He said higher institutions should also encourage adult education both in the rural and urban areas as education is continuous, stressing that knowledge gained by the adults would help move the nation forward.

Buhari said the current administration welcomes public private partnership to grow the nation’s economy.

Meanwhile, delivering a lecture on the topic: ‘The States In Nigeria’s Federation’, the governor of Gombe State,

Dr. Ibrahim Hassan Dankwambo, said the federal system of government as practised in the country has promoted unity in diversity.

On his part, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State noted that the gains of private institutions in the country cannot be overemphasized as it has made education available to all.

He said the nation was losing most of its values noting that it behoves on the youth to restore them and place the nation back on its pride of place.


Chancellor of the institution, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, said the institution, which started 18 years ago, has graduated over 8,500 people in various disciplines who are holding their grounds and flying the flag of the institution globally.

UTME: Candidates laud JAMB for mock initiative



Bwari – The Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB) said it had so far registered 1.5 million candidates for the 2017 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) across the country.JAMB candidates The Registrar of JAMB, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, disclosed this in an interview with the newsmen on Saturday at side line of activities marking the pre-JAMB mock examinations.


 It will be recalled that the JAMB mock examinations earlier scheduled to hold on Saturday May 8 had been postponed to ensure smooth conduct of the exam. Oloyede said: “So far, it has even been better than our expectation, it was a mock, the intention was to test the technology and it proved to be perfect. “I think from what we are seeing, we are more than ready for the main examination. 




“At least 90 per cent of the examination centres have reported positively, there have been proper downloading and preparation; even after the exam we had uploaded responses of 80 per cent. “We have done it to show that what works elsewhere across the world should work in Nigeria; we believe we can do it efficiently; we will continue to do our best. 



 “We have registered over 1.5million candidates in less than five weeks; we believe that the reality we have put in place is good enough.’’ Oloyede said that 633 centres were used to conduct the mock examination for 153, 000 candidates across the country. 



In separate interviews, some of examination centre coordinators and candidates lauded JAMB for the mock initiative geared towards equipping the candidates to do better in the main exam. Mr Abdul-Aziz Olasoyinka, Technical Research Officer of Digital Bridge Institute, commended JAMB for the mock examination. He said it was apt in terms of preparation for future exams. Olasoyinka said: 



 “Mock is a good experience because it will help the candidates to adequately prepare for the forthcoming examination. “It helps to evaluate how well the candidates have prepared and to improve themselves ahead of time.” Mr Olajide Adisa, Director of Outstations at JAMB, said although there were 230 capacities at the Computer Based Test (CBT) centre, plans were on to upgrade to 250 them before the main exam. 




“Even with that our specification is that at least we should have 10 per cent of same capacity as back-up in case of any breakdown. “We have already put measures in place to test them in the course of the mock examination, they will be ready before the main examination,” 

Adisa said. A candidate, Miss Hadiza Abdullahi, said that the mock examination had improved her level of confidence ahead of the main exam. She described the examination as encouraging, adding that she expects to sit for the main examination well-equipped.




 Abdullahi, however appealed to the board to put measures in place to enable candidates wanting to register for future exam to do so with ease. The mock examination held in three sessions, including the JAMB headquarter and CBT centre in Kogo community.
