Champion league: I don't understand why juventus were protesting - Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo could not understand why Juventus protested Michael Oliver's late decision to hand Real Madrid a penalty and a dramatic aggregate win on Wednesday night in the Champions League last four. Lucas Vazquez was brought down in stoppage time by Medhi Benatia, with English referee Oliver pointing to the spot for Ronaldo to convert for a 4-3 aggregate victory.

In a dramatic match, Juventus had come back to 3-3 in the tie following their 3-0 first-leg defeat, but Ronaldo says Juve's protests, which saw Gianluigi Buffon sent off, were unfounded.
"I don't understand why they are protesting," he said to reporters after the game. "Lucas was tackled from behind and if they don't give him the penalty, it's a goal." Ronaldo, who scored his 120th Champions League goal before celebrating with his shirt off in front of the Real fans, admitted he had to calm himself down before stepping up for the memorable victory. "The pulse increased, but I calmed down, and I knew I'd be decisive," he continued. Regarding the events at the Bernabeu, Ronaldo added: "We have suffered, but it helps us to learn. "In football, nothing is given away, you have to fight until the end. Madrid could've scored more goals, but Juvetus and Buffon were good."

One of the songs that I had record...

AGRICULTURE......Agriculture the prominent mechanism for Africa Development.

 Approximately two-thirds of sub-Saharan Africa’s population is dependent on agriculture and the sector is responsible for generating one-third of the continent’s GDP. With its vast arable land, Africa has the potential to not only feed its citizens but to export food to other regions of the world. It is therefore astonishing that Africa must import food and rely on food aid to feed its people. The majority of poor subsistence farmers lack the income to buy seeds, fertilizers and tools and the resources to set up even the simplest irrigation system.  Development assistance for agriculture could help provide the resources and the technical expertise to move smallholder farmers out of poverty, but development assistance for agriculture has declined dramatically in the last two-decades. Land-use policies and climate change have exacerbated the dire situation, as have the recent global food and financial crises. ONE urges development partners to implement the fol...
