ROME - Roma has had a third section of its stadium closed for the upcoming Serie A match against Inter Milan after more anti-territorial chants. Roma was ordered to close the sections behind both goals, where the ultras sit, for the league matches against Sampdoria and Inter as punishment for anti-Neapolitan chants by fans during an Italian Cup match this month. However, further insults were clearly heard from another sector during Sundays 3-0 victory over Samp and that area will also be closed for the match against Inter on March 1. Roma was given a suspended sentence of a one-match ban in October. Torino and both Milan clubs were also handed suspended sentences at the time. Roma is second in the Italian league, nine points behind Juventus, which has played a game more. Ugg Classic Mini Offerte .

Arenado left the game in the second inning after fracturing his left middle finger on a head-first slide into second base. Michael Cuddyer hit a home run for Colorado. Ramiro Pena, who replaced third baseman Chris Johnson in the third inning, led off the eighth with a double to the centerfield wall off Adam Ottavino (0-1).DOHA, Qatar - Leaders of Qatar seem to have a simple formula for their plans over the next decade: money + sports = global fame.Never in sporting history has a country invested so massively, quickly, broadly, internationally and ostentatiously as the small oil-and-gas rich Gulf emirate that is using the worlds thirst for energy and for sporting entertainment to realize its giant look at me! ambitions.With a spending spree of staggering reach and proportions, the thumb of desert with a native population of just 282,750 — that would be 14th in a list of London boroughs and tied with Toledo, Ohio, for 66th among U.S. cities — has used sports to make itself a household name in Europe. The rest of the world is next.Lionel Messi and his teammates wear QATAR AIRWAYS on the front of their Barcelona shirts for $40 million a year, which Qatar was earning in just three hours from hydrocarbon exports before the recent plunge in oil prices.Hundreds of millions more bought Paris Saint-Germain, Frances most glamorous football team, and made it champion again.Further vast spending has greased Qatars passage in sports corridors of power, made it the new favoured venue for major events, acquired another team in Belgium, enabled Qatars sports broadcaster to muscle aside international competitors, sponsored Europes richest horse race, and built a world-class sports hospital and a state-of-the art training academy in Doha that makes hardened sports pros giddy with awe.And thats just the start. The projected cost of readying Qatar to host footballs World Cup in 2022: an otherworldly $160 billion dollars.Small wonder that when Qatars sports minister walks into a room, some see a walking cash machine.Speaking to The Associated Press in a rare and exclusive interview, Salah bin Ghanem bin Nasser al-Ali recalled that as a student in the United States, people used to ask him: Where is Qatar?Now they ask: How about investing in our sport, our team?Most of the meetings with officials are like this, he said. We in Qatar, we look for good opportunities. I meet a lot of them and they do presentations from buying clubs, to new clubs, to all kinds of sports, and introducing new sports in Qatar. And a lot of opportunities. We are open. We listen.Qatars grab on sport isnt only for prestige, recognition, vanity and to drill new wells of revenue for when oil and gas run dry. It also sees sport as a way of motivating Qataris who, thanks to the riches underground, are the worlds second-wealthiest people per capita but, in obesity and diabetes, have the health problems of comfortable living.You want to create a challenge for them, al-Ali said. Some countries they create, really, political challenges — you know? — to make a focus for the people (or they) create another enemy.At the turn of the 20th century, this former British protectorate smaller than Puerto RRico first tasted prosperity when it became the hub of the pearl industry.dddddddddddd Then Japan farmed pearls, took over the global market and the bottom fell out for Qatar.Today, that collapse is still cited as an example of why Qatar must think long-term, prepare for a post-hydrocarbon future and build an economy based instead on a well-educated population and revenues from its growing portfolio of global investments — Barclays Bank, Londons iconic Harrods department store, its stock exchange, and 2012 Olympic Village, to name just some.You always think, OK, what can I do to survive in difficult circumstances? I think one of them is to have a good relationship with big countries, al-Ali said. You need to be known, you need to be heard.So sports fans find themselves tuning into beIN Sports — an offshoot of Qatars Al Jazeera network — that is gobbling up broadcasting rights not only in the Middle East but also the Americas, Australasia and France. That operation is one the most visible vehicles of Qatar, whose acquisition-hungry sovereign wealth funds are estimated to be worth more than $100 billion.At Paris Saint-Germain, fans now celebrate again after Qatars 2011 takeover and star recruits — David Beckham finished his career there — ended the clubs 19-year title drought in Ligue 1.When the Middle Easts first World Cup kicks off in 2022, Qatar will already have hosted world championships in track, swimming, handball, volleyball and possibly also basketball, since it is bidding to stage that sports World Cup in 2019 or 2023. In the process, Qatar will also have trained sports-management administrators and workers who could challenge Western firms in the big business of organizing and marketing sports.Any event that we deliver now in the Middle East is entirely delivered by organizations or by firms coming from either the West or North America and South America, said Mushtaq al-Waeli, executive director of a Qatari institute, Josoor, that is training people from the Middle East and North Africa ahead of the World Cup.They take the experience and they go back and do it somewhere else, he said in an AP interview. So there is no legacy really left in our region.Still, Qatar hungers for more.Failed bids for the 2016 and 2020 Olympics could serve as dry-runs for another try. And there are plenty more sports, teams and events for Qatar to buy into. The sports minister said he personally would like to own an English Premier League club one day.We have a special team for the investment, he said. They are good business people. They are learning. They are getting better and better... They are investigating all opportunities, I think in America, in England and everywhere.I dont think we are going to stop.___Rob Harris can be followed at www.twitter.com/RobHarris and John Leicester at www.twitter.com/JohnLeicester cheap nfl Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys cheap nfl Jerseys wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
