Since Tuesday of last week, the whole country has returned to the so-called Contingency situation, also known as “psst, you can’t go for a drink after eight in the evening, drink it but it’s during the day, like normal alcoholics”.
If at first we were all a little scared with new rules constantly coming out, I’d say that now we’re used to it. Our relationship with this virus is reaching the routine phase, in which we no longer feel that butterflies in our stomachs and we only imply that it has left the infectious droplets with the lid up again.
Benfica is out of the Champions League, after having failed an apparently “peanuts” qualification against Abel Ferreira’s PAOK. Jorge Jesus will now try to qualify Benfica for the Copa Libertadores, which is always easier. No, you don’t have a globe at home.
All the parodies and a few more with the name of the coach have already been made, but the truth is that this Jesus never seemed so crucified to me. With the aggravating factor that the nails cost 100 million euros.
And speaking of Benfica: the fact that António Costa was part of the Honor Commission for the re-election of Luís Filipe Vieira, who was also accused in some criminal cases, caused a lot of uproar. Costa stressed that he did it as part of his personal life. António, citizen, you are confusing public support with choosing a deodorant. And the first one smells so bad it doesn’t go in there with a roll-on.
A group of scientists, including a Portuguese woman, found a gas called phosphine on Venus, thus raising the possibility of life on that planet. For me, I think it’s only worth it when they find a Zara.
The trial of the Portuguese involved with the self-proclaimed Islamic State has begun. One of them defended himself by explaining, and I quote, that “jihad means personal development and not holy war”. I knew coaching was not to be trusted, dammit.
Contrary to what has been said, the contents of the hard disks will not be part of the files that may be shown in court during the Football Leaks process. What a relief. With a hairstyle like that, it seems obvious to me that they would discover a lot of Nickelback and Smash Mouth mp3’s.
