panel of experts from cough who will select the nominees and then later when the shortlist is made. captains of 454 national teams of africa come down to choose the winner and you know they're the people who work closely with these players as they train with them travel with them and they know from the statistics really had a really deep in his form and money has been incredible for 21000 he was a finalist for the of corn that we saw taking it the last one little and he also helped europe will come close to winning the premier league but we lost one city but then they won the european cup that is the champions league yeah it's interesting that you bring out a little bit of the international highlight he's had i mean this guy is also one of the top goal scorers in the english premier league where he plays one of will could

he go on to be to win football's biggest on that would be the bible and all that we've seen going between a christian or not and i don't miss it for the longest time how far away is money from fantasia winning that one. i mean is true i mean i think it's not really far away books and money but money you know they were also in the team you were for temple's league team of 21000 this best 11 with money in the but you see. money was also the he was among the top 5 of the balloon daughter meaning you know after the kid that missy intermodal have been dominating money can come up and if he maintains the eye level of performances like the one we the ones we saw in 21000 clearly sooner or later he will be winning this. person money indeed every sports commentator thank you.

when she was an infant he had been a contract worker in the g.d.r. in the 1980 s. . but i want to finish i'm still going between absolute excitement and total calm. but i don't know how i feel. antonio has also been searching for his daughter for a long time and now that time has come what can he give his long lost child. everybody will certainly 5 years i haven't seen my daughter for 35 years isn't proven dries out all most m.b. a country that only knows from her mother's tales but which is a part of who she is that might be some way out you can finally understand where you and your thought processes come from that moment when you can link these characteristics to a person. you can see but it's one of my antonia lived in communist east germany

for 5 years and worked on a fruit farm. land. does this for team will not get a 985 when his daughter fatuma was 6 months old his contract ran out he had to leave the g.d.r. and his family there and returned to mozambique a country in the throes of a civil war. yes or no i'm scared that was his work as well. and then she's there. for me. meet. her. on this one there's no need to cry.

'd in 19792000 such workers were sent to east germany. they were sent there to solve the labor shortage and at the same time receive valuable training but when their contracts were up they had to return to mozambique. their children are not the only things they left behind in east germany. many are still waiting for half their wages and their pension rights to. at the weekly demos they demand justice many found it difficult to reintegrate into mozambique society . or started as our society they told us socialism is over now we have capitalism you have to go look for work yourself now but if you had a job and stayed in germany then they threw you out on the benefit of our revolution rosicrucianism the team is fate is shared by others an estimated 2000 children are similarly trying to find their roots with the help of the organization
