Eduardo Galeano is a genius writer and a lousy football player, but his lack of skill in playing football did not make him lose his passion for this sport, for which he harnessed his abilities as a storyteller, historian, and loyal fan. The book “Football Between Sun and Shadow” is an attempt to “atone for sin,” in which Galeano provides a brief account of the history of football, and the changes that have occurred to the game over time, especially in light of the fundamental importance that the game has acquired in Latin American countries. He also recalls luminous joints. Unforgettable moments on the field, and exceptional players touched by the temptation of running after the ball.
But Galeano, in his book, does not stop at the moments of excitement, glory, and fame only within the confines of the stadium, but rather goes digging into the shadows. To expose the myths that fans and players of this sport believed in, and the racism that followed them, and to also expose the amount of exploitation and corruption that turned this sport into a business, and its players into commodities, thus killing its enjoyment.
أنا خطيئتُكَ التي لن تُغتفر، وأنا الذنب الذي بينكَ وبين دعواتكَ التي لن تُستجاب. سأظلُ أدعو عليكَ بصلواتي الخمس، وفي كلِّ سجدة، سأطلبُ من عظمته التي يهتزُ لها الكون

About the book (Emirati Excellence) This book tells the story of the superiority of the United Arab Emirates, the country that emerged from a British mandate in the early seventies. Most of its people could not read and write, the houses were huts or mud houses, and there were no streets, bridges, or even a single university! Through an ambitious vision and long-term plan, this country was able to transform from a marginalized and weak country into an advanced country scientifically, economically and militarily, and to raise the average per capita income per year from $350 at the beginning of the union to more than $50,000, making it first in the Arab world and fourth in the world according to estimates by the International Monetary Fund. For the year 2013 AD. It is wrong to attribute the success of the UAE experience to the release of oil alone, as there are many countries that have enormous natural resources but have not progressed! The reason is its poor management. Through successful management, countries advance and achieve miracles, and not only with natural resources. This book reviews the reasons for excellence and the transition from difficult beginnings to great achievements. Walid Al Marzouki.
