There are roughly 6 billion people on the planet; in 2004, perhaps 2.5 billion survived on $2 a day or less, says the World Bank. By 2050, the world may have 3 billion more people; many will be similarly impoverished. What’s baffling and frustrating about extreme poverty is that much of the world has eliminated it. In 1800, almost everyone was desperately poor. But the developed world has essentially abolished starvation, homelessness and material deprivation....

The tournament, set to begin in Goa on May 11th, 2017, have introduced an Elite division which will run simultaneously with the open category and will feature some of the best teams in the country. Youth teams of former I-League champions Dempo SC, ISL franchise FC Pune City, Ozone FC and AIFF’s U16 team will be a part of the Elite League.

In 2020, they launched Goal Click Refugees in partnership with UNHCR, The UN Refugee Agency. The ongoing series is collaborating with refugees and asylum seekers around the world to document their stories through football. This is one of those stories. This week Goal Click talks to 29-year-old Ismail Mahamud Abdalla, originally from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

“We probably could have put them away with a second that would have killed the game for them,” Leckie told FFA TV. “But credit to Iraq - they obviously pushed men forward and took a lot of risks to try to chase the game. “They fought to the end and scored the goal that was probably deserved for the amount of pressure they put on. “A fair result was a draw....

Having scored 26 times in all competitions last term, Dybala’s output has diminished since Cristiano Ronaldo arrived to become the team’s new focal point. The Argentina forward has managed just two goals in Serie A this term with Ronaldo and Mario Mandzukic, who landed the decisive blow in the 1-0 Champions League win over Valencia in midweek, combining for 15. Allegri was pleased with how his front three functioned and reserved particular praise for Dybala, the 25-year-old having found the net four times in Europe, including a hat-trick at home against Young Boys....

"The job I did was three and a half, almost four years ago. You can't stack that in the net behind you and have it deflect pucks away for you. You have to re-focus, reestablish," Miller said. Simpler times, patriots. Simpler times, indeed. Over the first few months of the season, injuries, ineffectiveness and the emergence of at least one previous afterthought have altered the depth chart. That much isn't debatable....

Become an Evil Devil Goat No, you read that right. You’re going to summon up dark forces and become one bad goat. You can even do this while you’re just running around exploring, too! Find the red barn where a party’s going on behind it. Stand facing away from the barn and head left until you see a dirt path between some rocks. You’ll see flowers and torches as your vision becomes hazy....

God of War: Ragnarok is not all about the main game though, no matter how fast the player wants to get to the end of their playthrough. The side quests (called “favors”) in this masterpiece are little masterpieces of their own, and they shouldn’t be ignored. First of all, they’re important to the story; second of all, they give amazing rewards to the player. 9 Garden for the Dead To be able to do this Favor, the player has to complete the main quest 6: The Reckoning....

As players of God of War will be familiar with, Norse mythology describes how the nine realms connected to Yggdrasil, the world tree. The names of these realms do differ depending on the source material, but the God of War universe has already established which version of the realms exists, with some of its own changes made to them as well. Kratos journey in the last game takes him to four realms, and two others can be explored though are not central to the story....

This information comes from Shpeshal_Nick, who is best known for accurately leaking Xbox news. However, Shpeshal_Nick has been leaking PlayStation news lately, seemingly outing the existence of a Ghost of Tsushima standalone expansion called Ghost of Ikishima, which has since been backed up by other insiders. Shpeshal_Nick’s latest claim is that the Sony event will feature the first gameplay of the new God of War and that it will “be exciting to see,” but further details are unavailable beyond that....

The E rating is part of LEGO games’ identity, so fans will use LEGO products to sometimes build structures from other family friendly franchises, such as one fan who created Kanto’s Route 3 from Pokemon. Unfortunately, this leaves out various IPs with higher maturity ratings. It’s then left up to fans to imagine what their favorite games would be like if they were given the LEGO treatment. One such creator, Bricks of Chaos, shares their concepts for a LEGO version of God of War on their Instagram....

As the game shakes the series up so much, it wouldn’t make sense for developer Sony Santa Monica to just throw that all away after one title. So it comes as no surprise that God of War game director Cory Barlog now explains that “with this game, I think people know that we’re going to be here for a while.” Barlog also reveals that “when I chose this story, I had chosen it because I already outlined and mapped out stories for multiple games,” adding that “I have an arc in my head that goes well beyond this game and everything that we are doing in God of War, to me, is very much building towards that....

With this being the first game to continue on from the events of 2013’s Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart had a lot to live up to. The franchise had only one release on the PS4, Ratchet & Clank (2016), which was a semi-remake of the first game. This game is Insomniac’s second game for the PS5, following its web-swinging adventures in Spider-Man: Miles Morales....

Although the recent God of War game is a reboot of the series, the 2005 title is still a classic in the eyes of many. Perhaps the mechanics are from a bygone era and do not hold up as well today, but they set the table for a character and a series that is still very much one of PlayStation’s strongest franchises. For many, it is hard to believe that the original game is already this old....

There are some big disagreements about whether or not this will happen, or the number of different ways it could be executed if it does. Here’s a break down of the sides some fans have taken over the plot of God of War’s upcoming Ragnarok sequel, and what led them to those conclusions.

This much was revealed during an interview in the most recent issue of Official PlayStation Magazine UK, wherein Kaufman described a certain sequence in which the God of War protagonist and his young offspring team up to take down enemies with unique moves. The Santa Monica Studio Marketing Producer assured fans that the ability he explained is just one example among many that can be used with Kratos and Atreus acting in tandem during combat....

2018’s God of War started Kratos off with an entirely new weapon, the Leviathan Axe. Throughout the game, Kratos also could use his fists while getting access to a shield and his iconic Blades of Chaos, which all played very differently. God of War also brought the new Talisman system to better allow players to customize their fighting style. RELATED: God of War Director Uses Star Wars Padme Meme to Tease Fans...

Santa Monica Studio made a lot of changes to this title in comparison to the original series. As the latest entry, it earned praise for high fidelity graphics, upgradeable gear, and cinematic storytelling. Even with a successful release on PlayStation 4, the hit game has not seen any improvements for the newest console. This is especially noticeable given that it is one of the available games in the PlayStation Plus Collection....

RELATED: God of War Ragnarok Boss Guide: Odin The death of Heimdall was foretold to mark the beginning of Ragnarok, and though Kratos doesn’t wish to face the Norse god in combat, he is left with no other choice. Defeating Heimdall in God of War Ragnarok can take some serious work to accomplish, but it isn’t impossible once the player knows what to do. Where To Find Heimdall Players will come across Heimdall naturally in the story, but they won’t be able to defeat him the first time they are forced to face him in combat....

But getting to the Sanctuary Grove is not inherently an obvious task. Players may note the location on the map just south of the Lake of the Nine in Midgard, but they may have a tough time figuring out exactly how to get there. The path may be disguised, but it’s simple to access for anyone interested in uncovering this unique piece of God of War: Ragnarok. RELATED: God of War Ragnarok: Complete Guide & Walkthrough...
