Score90 Ranks Mbappé No. 1 in February Ballon d'Or List, Rice Above HaalandFebruary 26, 2026 10:34 PM Full SummaryScore90's February graphic places Real Madrid's Mbappé first with his 23 La Liga goals and UCL scoring lead, Barcelona's 18-year-old Lamine Yamal second on 10 goals and 9 assists, Bayern's Harry Kane third with 28 Bundesliga goals, Arsenal's Rice fourth for anchoring their 61-point Premier League lead, and Manchester City's Haaland fifth despite 22 Premier League strikes. Fans blast Rice's spot as absurd for a defensive midfielder and lament Haaland's drop, while Real supporters question Yamal and others note omissions like Vinícius Júnior. Other lists vary—Goal puts Kane top, bookies favor Mbappé—but the debate highlights how individual stats clash with team success this deep into the 2025-26 season. Key TakeawayKylian Mbappé sits atop Score90's latest Ballon d'Or power rankings, but Declan Rice at fourth ahead of Erling Haaland's goal tally has fans firing back hard. Context & EntitiesTopics

Israel Recognizes Somaliland as Sovereign Nation, Drawing Regional BacklashJanuary 5, 2026 11:42 AM Full SummaryIsrael became the first UN member state to formally recognize Somaliland, a self-declared republic that has governed independently since 1991 after Somalia's civil war. The agreement with Somaliland's President Abdirahman Mohamed Abdullahi and Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar promises cooperation in agriculture, economics, and security. Somalia's President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud condemned the move, calling Somaliland a secessionist project and hinting at force, while the African Union and others decried it as a sovereignty violation amid fears of escalation in the Horn of Africa. Key TakeawayOn December 26, 2025, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signed off on recognizing Somaliland's independence—a bold step echoing a 1960 letter of support. Context & EntitiesTopics

Viral Claim Falsely Attributes Sharia Demand to Sheikh Gumi After Kwara AttacksFebruary 10, 2026 11:23 AM Full SummaryGunmen killed dozens, possibly over 100, in Woro and Nuku villages on February 4, razing homes and looting amid a wave of violence across Nigerian states. Posts paired old photos of Gumi with bandits to claim he conditioned peace on Kwara embracing Sharia penal codes, but no video, audio, statement, or coverage from major outlets confirms it—his X account stays silent on the topic. Kwara already has Sharia courts for Muslim personal matters under Nigeria's constitution, yet the unverified rumor has split opinions, with calls for Gumi's arrest and fears of religious divides as leaders like Governor AbdulRazaq seek federal help. Key TakeawayAmid fresh bandit horrors in Kwara villages, social media posts falsely pinned a shocking demand on Sheikh Ahmad Gumi: adopt full Sharia law for peace. Context & EntitiesTopics

Manchester United Fans Debate Biggest Transfer Flops from Pogba to AntonyFebruary 26, 2026 10:32 PM Full SummaryThe discussion highlights eye-watering costs like Pogba's €105m world-record return in 2016, Sancho's €85m for 12 goals in 82 games, and Antony's €95m for similar low output. Fans split on Pogba's inconsistency and injuries versus his flair in a tough side, while polls now pit Sancho against error-prone keeper Andre Onana. Amid past flops and United's €692m net spend topping Europe from 2021-25 with no title since 2013, recent signings like Bryan Mbeumo and Senne Lammens are delivering strong results in 2025/26.
