World Player of the Week DECEMBER 1-7, 2012 Facundo Ferreyra AGE 21 POSITION Striker FOR Velez Sarsfield WEEK IN NUMBERS APPS (GOALS SCORED) 1 (2) TIME ON PITCH 90 PREVIOUS WINS 0 Velez Sarsfield 2-0 Union de Santa Fe Facundo Ferreyra scored arguably the two most important goals of his fledgling career last weekend, as he struck twice against Union to guide Velez Sarsfield to championship glory in Argentina with a round to spare. The 21-year-old headed home powerfully at the near post to put his side in pole position in the match, before settling matters late on with a superb finish from inside the area to secure a 2-0 win for Velez and leave them with an unassailable five-point lead over Lanus at the top of the Torneo. Not only that, but the two strikes took 'Chucky' Ferreyra's tally to 11 for the tournament, moving him ahead of Newell's Old Boys' Ignacio Scocco in the race for the top-scorer prize. As Pablo Aro Geraldes, chief editor of Goal.com Argentina, says: "He was tournament top scorer, and his goals made it possible for Velez to claim the title, avenging the relegation he suffered with his beloved Banfield. He deserves all the awards." Goal.com International's South America expert Rupert Fryer summed up the striker's whirlwind 12 months: "Ferreyra could have packed his bags for Europe when his club Banfield were relegated last season, but instead decided it might be better for his long-term development to stick around at home a little longer. Having decided to do so, the choice was clear - Boca Juniors or River Plate? Chucky, however, was playing the long game, and so opted for perhaps the most efficiently run club in the country. On Sunday that decision was truly vindicated. Congratulations to Facundo Ferreyra, Goal.com's 185th World Player of the Week winner!

Goal.com's Dennis Mabuka: "He grabbed the headlines, scoring five goals and creating two - scintillating stuff.

RAIS BARACK OBAMA WA MAREKANI AMUONYA RAIS WA SYRIA.

AMUONYA DHIDI YA MATUMIZI YA SILAHA ZA KIKEMIKALI DHIDI YA WAPINZANI WAKE RAIS Barack Obama amemwonya rais wa Syria Bashar al-Assad kwamba atawajibishwa endapo majeshi yake yatatumia silaha za kemikali dhidi ya upinzani nchini Syria. Obama alitamka hayo katika kikao hapa Washington kusisitiza msimamo wa Marekani dhidi ya ulimbikizaji wa silaha za nuklia na kemikali wakati wa maadhimisho ya miaka 20 ya mkataba wa ushirikiano wa kupunguza vitisho vya silaha za kemikali kati ya Marekani na Russia. Lakini kilichogonga vichwa vya habari ni onyo lake kwa rais wa Syria, siku moja baada ya Washington kuionya Damascus dhidi ya matumizi ya silaha za kemikali. Obama alisema Marekani itaendelea kuunga mkono azma halali ya raia wa Syria, na kutoa misaada ya kibinadamu kwa upinzani na katika makabidhiano huru ya madaraka pasipo utawala wa Assad. Alimwonya rais Assad kuwa dunia inatizama kinachoendelea nchini Syria na kwamba matumizi ya silaha za kemikali kamwe hayatakubalika. Rais wa Syria, Bashar al-Assad. RAIS WA SYRIA ASSAD. Na ikiwa atafanya kosa la kutumia silaha hizo kutatokea madhara na Assad atawajibika. Obama alisisitiza kuwa dunia haiwezi kuruhusu karne ya 21 kutumbukizwa katika kiza cha karne ya 20 ya matumizi ya silaha kama hizo. Alisema jukumu la kuzuia ugaidi wa kutumia silaha za nuklia ni mojawapo ya maswala yaliyopewa kipaumbele kwa usalama wa kitaifa, na kwamba dunia inasogea mbele kuhakikisha hakuna silaha za nuklia katika siku za usoni.
