all about sports in here!

Di balik gegap gempita dan segala keriuhan Sea Games 2017 tidak pula kita lupakan ada maskot yang terlihat menarik, perwujudan Harimau Malaya dengan tampang yang imut, muda dan terlihat segar, hanya saja ada sesuatu yang mengganjal.

Mungkin banyak yang tidak menyadarinya karena sesuatu ini datang dari 13 tahun lalu pada tahun 2004, tahu kah kalian?

Mungkin agar lebih jelas bisa kita lihat di gambar di bawah ini:

Nah, sudah kah kalian sadari?

Memang secara tampak dan desain terlihat jauh berbeda dan juga memang di Pekan Olahraga Nasional XVI Tahun 2004 yang diselenggarakan di Palembang Sumatera Selatan mempunyai binatang kebanggaan yaitu Harimau Sumatera yang mana di Sea Games 2017 yang bertempat di Malaysia juga punya binatang kebanggaan yaitu Harimau Malaya, hanya saja yang menjadi pertanyaan ialah...

Apakah tidak ada nama lain? seperti Hari atau misal disingkat Harima alias Harimau Malaya dan lain sebagainya.

Fakta lucunya maskot Sea Games 2017 ini diresmikan pada tanggal 14 November 2015, bersamaan dengan logo dan tema permainan. Dan menurut mereka nama ini singkatan dari Respect, Integrity, Move, Attitude and Unity dan di singkat menjadi Rimau.

England manager Fabio Capello has insisted that there are no massive causes for concern after the Three Lions' 1-1 draw with the USA in their opening game of the World Cup on Saturday.

Defender Ledley King looks set to be ruled out for the rest of the tournament after sustaining a groin injury and being replaced by Jamie Carragher at half-time against the Americans.

And goalkeeper Rob Green blundered badly to hand the USA an equaliser, but Capello has been unequivocal in his assessment of the situation.

As far as the Italian is concerned, he made the right selection calls at the weekend and there is nothing to be overly worried about in terms of the rest of the campaign.

"I didn't make mistakes and I'm not worried for the future," he told reporters in South Africa.

"We played a good game and, for me, the most important thing is to see the spirit of the team and also the physical condition of the players.

"I was worried about the result because it is possible to lose a game like this.

"We had seven or eight chances. That is good football.

"But it is not enough just to create the chances. To win we have to score.

"Twice we were in front of the goal, once with Shaun Wright-Phillips, once with Emile (Heskey). Alone, Absolutely alone."

Capello was also taking an analytical approach when it came to how to deal with the error made by Green, a player with whom the Italian has been very happy in recent games.

"We must think about this problem psychologically," the England coach added.

"Goalkeepers make mistakes. This is part of football. You have to accept that.

"I decided on Green because he played very well in the last game against Platinum Stars and also against Mexico at Wembley, and in the second-half last night he played very well and made a really important save. But a mistake remains a mistake.

"Now I have to speak with him, then I will decide what to do."
