'Mission Impossible' said Tottenham boss Pochettino. And for neutrals and supporters alike, the idea of Tottenham beating Barcelona was as probable as Tottenham finally playing their games at their supposed next-gen home ground. Inter Milan were widely expected to beat PSV but Lozano and Co. had other ideas. In fact, until Icardi's goalmouth scramble, Milan looked to be set for a loss. On the other side of the world however Tottenham was ruing their missed sitters and after a draw, were left breathlessly watching the game in Italy. And a draw was enough. Like Tom Cruise reprising the role of Ethan Hunt, Harry Kane did what he did best and carried Tottenham to the knockout stages. Supposedly Lady Luck seems to prefer the Englishmen as even Liverpool were lucky enough to qualify by the skin of their teeth. Man Utd were a gone case..even Lady Luck couldn't favor them. Anfield saw Sadio Mane miss chances that even El Nino in his "prime" would have put to be...

...Like the AirPods 1? There have been many things in life that have horrified my friend Bryan, but none so more than realizing the iPhone 7 was missing one key element of any standard phone when it was first released: the headphone jack.  This gave him many more sleepless nights than when waiting for his AS level results. You see, Bryan was as entangled in the Apple ecosystem as Flynn Rider was in Rapunzel's hair. He had Macbooks, the Mac Mini, the iPhone 6s and well, the traditional Earpods. And being a gargantuan battery eater, he always had an assortment of power banks, with obvious lightning cables. The only non-Apple thing in his house, besides his clothes or food or books...was the Razer earbuds he used when he preferred quality sound ( even if I told him they were basically gamer related earphones) But the decision of Apple left him stumped. No headphone jack meant he couldn't connect his pair of Razer earphones. He would have to use the tiny in-box don...

2014: Takes the CEO Position On 4th February 2014, Satya Nadella was appointed CEO of Microsoft, becoming just the 3rd CEO of the multinational company, after Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer Microsoft begins its first acquisition in the Nadella period by buying Mojang ( best known for its Minecraft game) for USD 2.5 billion.   2014 and 2016 Microsoft starts allying with Linux and in 2016 Microsoft joins a premium Linux Group 2015: Microsoft unveils their first powerful laptop lookalike The Surface Book was the first entry for Microsoft into the laptop market. While still a 2-in-1 it revolutionized the concept of Microsoft devices by actually looking like a laptop. 2016: Surface Studio and new apps for IOS Instead of belittling Apple, Microsoft realized that it was possible to give them Windows-based applications to the 'i' devices. The subsequent releases of apps like Outlook and Powerpoint increased Microsoft's relationship with Apple. Oh...

The 2018 Formula One season ended with the delightful  ( though not for Nico Hulkenberg ) Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, where Lewis Hamilton yet again powered his Mercedes car past the chequered flag at the floodlit Yas Marina Circuit. It was a poetic end to a season where Hamilton established his dominance, winning his 5th Title and devastating Ferrari fans for yet another season.                           However this year has seen several rejigs in the drivers, with Fernando Alonso announcing his retirement, and Daniel Ricciardo moving to Renault ( after an ironically fraught season with a Renault powered car where he had to abandon races several times). Ferrari and Sauber are performing a swap- with Charles Leclerc heading for the prancing horse and Kimi Raikkonen joining the team who first brought him into Formula 1. Carlos Sainz Jr. joins Mclaren with Pierre Gasly taking Ricciardo's seat at Red Bull. Amon...

As much as most people dislike or even hate Neymar they are willing to begrudgingly accept that after Messi and Ronaldo say their Adios! and Ciao! to the footballing world, Neymar is the next king. Sure Modric was awarded the player of the year, but everybody knows that this was one hell of a year for the Croat. Whether he can replicate the kind of match-winning contributions next year seems highly unlikely. Mbappe too had an amazing year. It's not every time you see a 19-year-old lift the World Cup, a trophy both Ronaldo and Messi have failed to get their grubby hands on. He is the most exciting teenager. Griezmann, you say? As Sergio Ramos said, not a chance.  So Neymar is the only player whose levels consistently match or are just below the 2 GOAT's of current football. At Barcelona, he was a game-changing player, which is something very hard to achieve considering Catalans have a roster of great players and one man starting with the letter M. Remember the time he s...

R emember the time when Facebook was caught, pants down, divulging and spreading user's personal data? There was a huge backslash but more importantly, when the company was questioned, there were more memes produced than concrete explanations. Nevertheless, it was an invasion of people's lives and data. Wildfires are the same. Only deadlier and they are probably not started by a fellow named Zuckerberg.  While Zuckerberg mishandled data, the recent Camp Fire in Northern California destroyed not just data but homes, offices, the occasional ice cream cart or playground among others. Most importantly the death toll has risen to a staggering 71 and that is not including 1,011 more people still unaccounted for. And let's not forget the Woolsey Fire in southern California. Yes, you read that right. There are 2 fires burning in the state of California. Talk about a double whammy. We do pray for their safety.
