MBappé didn’t have a better season than Haaland

MBappé is often cited as a Ballon d’or favorite while Haaland is usually ignored. But if we look, their seasons were pretty similar.

In terms of team titles, both finished 2nd of their league with their club, with the Premier League being more competitive.
World Cup : MBappé’s finished 4th vs. 1/4 finale for Haaland.
Minor trophies : Haaland won the League Cup and the FA Cup vs none for MBappé.
Champions League : the Real Madrid won against City in the knock out stage and lost just after in quarter final.

In terms of individual stats MBappé vs. Haaland G/A :
- 25/5 in la Liga vs. 27/8 in Premier League
- 15/1 vs. 8/0 in Champions League
- 10/4 vs. 7/1 at the World Cup

So the main difference is therefore World Cup results with better results and stats for MBappé.

But Haaland carried a Norwegian team who was ranked 31st before the tournament, who didn’t qualify for 28 years and finished in the top 8 vs. MBappé who performed well but as expected with a team was ranked 3rd before the tournament and finished 4th.

Chocolate Definition : USA vs EU?

If I understood well, the US require 50% less cocoa solid for dark chocolate and 80% less for milk chocolate than the EU?

The US have a % requirement on “chocolate liquor”, which is roughly 50% cocoa solid and 50% cocoa butter so it seems the numbers should be divided by 2.

That would give in term of cocoa solid content:
- Dark Chocolate: 35% for the EU vs 17.5% for the US
- Milk Chocolate : 25% for the EU vs 5% for the US

With the definition of white chocolate being pretty similar.

Is my understanding correct?

“No Football in Concentration Camps” : Demonstration in France Against the World Cup in Argentina in 1978

“The 1978 World Cup held in Argentina and was the first time that the nation we now consider stellar opponents won the tournament. Argentina became the fifth team (after Uruguay, Italy, England and West Germany) to be hosting the tournament whilst also being crowned as champions of the world.  

However, this 1978 edition of the tournament was marred by controversy, hostile domestic and international politics and alleged interference and match-fixing. Argentina was chosen to host the 1978 edition of the tournament in London in 1966, when the hosts for 1974 and 1982 were also chosen.

Unfortunately, two years before the tournament came to Argentina for the first time, the nation had undergone a military coup of its democratic government.

The dictatorship known as the National Reorganisation Process took power and planned to use the 1978 World Cup as an opportunity for nationalistic propaganda and, largely, to seek legitimacy on the world stage.”

Quels ambitions (a minima) pour Zidane en tant que sélectionneur ?

De ce que j’ai lu, Deschamps avait dans ses contrats des objectifs surtout sur les Coupes du Monde et pas sur les Euros (qualification au mondial de 2014, demi-finale de coupe du monde 2018, demi-finale en 2018, demi finale en 2022).

Serait-ce un bon objectif pour Zidane aussi?
