Give Hong Kong women's football elite treatment or see it remain in backwaters, says coach
Ricardo Rambo said Hong Kong must treat women's football as an elite sport, or accept existing in the shadow of more dynamic and heavily resourced Asian rivals. Advertisement Head coach Rambo's team suffered AFC Asian Cup qualifying heartbreak in Cambodia on Saturday when they lost 1-0 to much-higher-ranked Philippines in a straight shoot-out to reach next year's Australian finals. Although Rambo drew some satisfaction from his world No 80 team 'closing gaps to the best sides defensively and in their tactical understanding', he acknowledged Hong Kong needed increased resources and hi-tech support to compete with leading countries. 'We need more manpower, so we have staff working to analyse matches and players,' Rambo said. 'That would allow us to have an individual approach to players, so we can create a profile and physical condition for each of them. 'To improve in modern football, you need data and analysis.' Hong Kong (in red), ranked 80, lost to the 41st-ranked Philippines by a goal to nil. Photo: HKFA With the Asian qualifiers doubling up as a pathway to the 2027 World Cup, Hong Kong will have to wait until 2029, at least, to feature again in a major tournament.

Love Island fans left in shock as 'hypocritical' Harry confesses to having an orgy with an entire women's football team
Love Island fans were left in shock during Monday's show when 'hypocritical' Harry confessed to having an orgy with an entire women's football team. Viewers saw the return of the Got The Receipts challenge that sees contestants slide down a conveyor belt, swipe their card and pick up a receipt, which reveals a fact about an Islander of the opposite sex. They then have to decide who they think the fact is about and kiss their chosen person, before finding out if they got it right. One receipt read: 'This boy has had an orgy with an entire women's football team.' The culprit was revealed to be Harry, with the girls exclaiming: 'It's Harry! I'm not sure we should be clapping for that.' Viewers at home were equally as shocked at the confession and slammed his 'double standards' on X. They shared: 'Harry is just a big gigantic red flag!!!'; 'And if I say Harry made that up because I can't see 11 women sleeping with him'; 'Harry is such a hypocrite?? Judging Helena for being a 'party girl' yet he has had an orgy with an entire football team?? What else is harry hiding? He is 10x worse yet degrading Helena?? The men this year are horrible'; '"The whole women's team" ok Harry someone's telling fibs'; 'Harry's acting like this and he's…thirty?'; 'Love Island just shows the double standards women face on a daily basis. Harry was judging Helena for being a bit freaky meanwhile he's slept with a whole football team.' The challenge took a disastrous turn as the boys cooked up an outrageous game plan which instantly backfired. Ben thought that Helena was the girl that was caught with handcuffs in her case while travelling, and Conor though that Toni picked up the phone while getting down and dirty because of a job. However, three of the boys decided to play their own game within the game. The rest of the group had no idea that Harry, Dejon, and Shea had got together and agreed that they would lock lips with the girl they fancied, rather than who they though the fact was about. Viewers at home were equally as shocked at the confession and slammed Harry's 'double standards' on X But later on in the episode their secret plan was revealed after Tommy pointed out that they all kissed someone that they were attracted to. Harry told him: 'We were all like, boys lets just forget the question and just say who you wanna kiss - so Shea was like I wanna kiss Megan, when he read it out, me and D said, "That's Megan!"' Tommy replied: 'Oh my God, f****ng hell! What do you think will happen tonight then? That will all come out?' The landscape gardener then decided to share the information with his girl Megan. She confessed: 'We f***ing knew it!' Tommy continued: 'Shea said, "When it's my turn say Megan" - I think that's out of order. I don't like confrontation, but I will stand up for what's right.'
