World Cup

Dalic vows 'this is not the end' in Croatia's World Cup journey

The 2018 finalists will now take on Messi and Co after knocking out favourites Brazil in Qatar

Zlatko Dalic vowed that “this is not the end” after his side shocked favourites Brazil on Friday to book a place in second successive World Cup semi-final.

The 2018 runners-up appeared to be heading out of the tournament when Neymar scored at the end of the first period of extra-time at Education City Stadium.

However, Bruno Petkovic struck in the final few moments to set up a penalty shoot-out, with Rodrygo and Marquinhos both failing to convert as Croatia progressed 4-2.

They will take on Argentina on Tuesday for a place in another World Cup final. Inspired by Lionel Messi, the South American champions defeated the Netherlands on Friday, also on penalties.

Speaking after the Brazil victory, a jubilant Dalic said: “This is a victory for Croatian people. A great match. We eliminated the main favourites.

“This is Croatia: pride, courage, faith and patriotism. Croatia is the best when it's needed. When it matters, Croatia always succeeds. No one should underestimate us.

“This is not the end; we are moving on. We can achieve a lot.”

Dalic, a former Al Ain manager, guided Croatia to the final four years ago, where his team were beaten 4-2 by France.

The past two global finals have been marked by Croatia’s indefatigability; they won two penalty shoot-outs in Russia and now have done the same in Qatar (Japan the other, in the last 16).

“[The players] are great fighters and only Croats can do that,” Dalic said. “We have very strong character and we do not give up. We were prepared for anything today.

“It has become quite normal for us in shoot-outs to become favourite; it's as though we have already won at that point. But you need to get to the penalties first. It's a feature of our team.”

On Saturday, Dalic was greeted at a press conference at the team's training base with applause from Croatian media representatives.

“When you kick out of the World Cup a team like Brazil, which surely were the biggest favourites, then you must be both happy and proud,” he said.

“I am tired but happily tired and … one should enjoy this moment, but not too much as today we already have to start to prepare for Argentina.”

On summoning another huge effort against Argentina on Tuesday, Dalic said: “Fatigue will not be an issue at all, and we will not mention it at all. They are also very motivated, they are awaiting the title and they are happy because Brazil fell out and they celebrate it.

“I think that a very, very tough job is awaiting us now. They will have huge support now in the semi-finals as Messi is still their main player and someone they can rely on. He plays splendidly.

“I really cannot yet review Argentina just yet. All will depend on us. If we do not play right, if we are not serious and motivated, it will be in vain even if they perform poorly. At this time they are excellent as they reached semi-finals.”

WHAT ARE NFTs?

     

 

    

 

   

 

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are tokens that represent ownership of unique items. They allow the tokenisation of things such as art, collectibles and even real estate.

 

An NFT can have only one official owner at one time. And since they're minted and secured on the Ethereum blockchain, no one can modify the record of ownership, not even copy-paste it into a new one.

 

This means NFTs are not interchangeable and cannot be exchanged with other items. In contrast, fungible items, such as fiat currencies, can be exchanged because their value defines them rather than their unique properties.

Can NRIs vote in the election?

Indians residing overseas cannot cast their ballot abroad

Non-resident Indians or NRIs can vote only by going to a polling booth in their home constituency

There are about 3.1 million NRIs living overseas

Indians have urged political parties to extend the right to vote to citizens residing overseas

A committee of the Election Commission of India approved of proxy voting for non-resident Indians

Proxy voting means that a person can authorise someone residing in the same polling booth area to cast a vote on his behalf.

This option is currently available for the armed forces, police and government officials posted outside India

A bill was passed in the lower house of India’s parliament or the Lok Sabha to extend proxy voting to non-resident Indians

However, this did not come before the upper house or Rajya Sabha and has lapsed

The issue of NRI voting draws a huge amount of interest in India and overseas

Over the past few months, Indians have received messages on mobile phones and on social media claiming that NRIs can cast their votes online

The Election Commission of India then clarified that NRIs could not vote online

The Election Commission lodged a complaint with the Delhi Police asking it to clamp down on the people spreading misinformation

Real estate tokenisation project

Dubai launched the pilot phase of its real estate tokenisation project last month.

The initiative focuses on converting real estate assets into digital tokens recorded on blockchain technology and helps in streamlining the process of buying, selling and investing, the Dubai Land Department said.

Dubai’s real estate tokenisation market is projected to reach Dh60 billion ($16.33 billion) by 2033, representing 7 per cent of the emirate’s total property transactions, according to the DLD.
