OFC Women's Nations Cup
July 13th - July 30th

Host: Fiji

Group A
Tonga
Cook Islands
Samoa

Group B
Papua New Guinea
Tahiti
Vanuatu

Group C
Fiji
New Caledonia
Solomon Islands

The top two third-place teams will round out the quarterfinal matchups. Unfortunately, winning doesn't grant an automatic ticket to the World Cup since New Zealand is hosting part of the World Cup, so they’ll just get a spot in the intercontinental play-off instead.
A little fun fact: Historically, this trophy has only been won by New Zealand (6 times), Australia (3 times), and Chinese Taipei (2 times). Since none of those teams are actually participating this year, I guess we're due for a brand new champion.😁

Naturally, I'll be watching. My money is on Morocco to take it all.👍

Why unfortunately?

I honestly don't get why people are pushing back on the casting for Jafar. A young vizier, someone who could actually be an heir to the throne—to me, the actor choice is spot on. I mean, why would we want Ben Kingsley again?
From the very first announcement, I wasn't exactly sold on the idea of Will Smith playing a genie, but this kind of quirky, high-energy role is something only he can pull off.
Besides, if John Wayne could play Genghis Khan, what's stopping a Black actor from playing a genie?

Just finished watching it. Honestly, this movie totally deserves cult classic status
