Is the Philippines in FIFA 22?

• The Premier League has banned Israeli and Palestinian flags from matches this weekend slots
  
  Players, staff and officials will wear black armbands and a moment’s silence will be held at every ground, as English slots football pays its respects to victims of the Israeli-Hamas war slots
  
  But the Premier League has told clubs that supporters are not permitted to bring flags into stadiums, in an effort to avoid potential incidents slots
  
  The decision follows consultancy with security experts and the clubs themselves, and is in line with the slots Football Association’s approach to the recent England internationals at Wembley slots
  
  The English slots Football League will take the same stance slots
  
  Some Premier League stars have spoken out over the conflict slots
  
  Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah called for the killing to stop and for immediate humanitarian aid to be allowed into Gaza, as supplies of water and food run out slots
  
  He had already made what was described as a “significant” undisclosed donation, via his agent, to humanitarian organisation the Egyptian Red Crescent Society in support of the people of Gaza slots
  
  Tottenham’s Israeli international Manor Solomon posted on Instagram, claiming Hamas were “blaming Israel for killing their own people” after both Israel and Hamas issued rival claims about the bombing of a Gaza hospital feared to have killed at least 500 slots
  
  European slots football's governing body has meanwhile announced that no Uefa competition matches will be played in Israel until further notice slots
  
  Israel's national teams and club sides Maccabi Haifa and Maccabi Tel Aviv, who are both competing in Europe, must find alternative venues outside the country to fulfil their Uefa fixtures slots
  
  And the FA will meanwhile review whether to continue lighting the Wembley arch as an act of tribute following criticism over its response to the conflict slots

  Once or twice in a lifetime, in any given field of popular endeavour, there arises an individual who becomes beloved, first in his own land and then far beyond; an idol without the proverbial feet of clay whose achievements are prodigious, yet whose stature is somehow more immense than the sum of them slots
  
  Such a man was Bobby Charlton, who has died at the age of 86 after a long illness slots
  
  On a slots football pitch he was an inimitable combination of silk and dynamite, one moment beguiling the senses with a touch of exquisite artistry, the next conjuring raw exhilaration with a sudden, savage strike of power slots
  
  He brought to his work a sense of wonder, an inescapable impression of grace, treating his audiences to extended sequences of unalloyed delight slots
  
  By any standard, he was a great player slots
  
  Charlton in the red and white of his beloved United, in October 1960 (PA)Fittingly, he scaled the game’s loftiest peaks, bestriding the world stage with England and contributing seminally to the unique charisma of the institution that is Manchester United slots
  
  Yet all that represented only the most obvious aspect of the universal Charlton appeal slots
  
  That glorious career was followed by a quarter of a century during which he became British sport’s premier international ambassador slots
  
  Through it all he remained modest, dignified and wholesome, a perennial winner mercifully untainted by scandal or dishonesty slots
  
  Though a lifetime of media exposure was to engender belated self-assurance, there remained about Charlton a certain native shyness which some mistook for aloofness slots
  
  In fact, he was genuinely unaffected by his fame yet sometimes became overwhelmed by adulation, at a loss about dealing with it, and therefore retreating into a defensively private shell slots
  
  In action as a teenager for Manchester United, March 1957 (PA)Bobby Charlton, the son of a Northumberland miner, was born to be a slots footballer, even though his father, Bob Sr, was barely interested in the game slots
  
  His mother, Cissie, hailed from the Milburn clan – her four brothers all played professionally and her cousin, Jackie Milburn, was the hero of Tyneside for a dozen years after the Second World War – and she, Iike most of the Charltons’ home village of Ashington, was slots football crazy slots
  
  As a small, thin nine-year-old Charlton could dominate a game in which most of the other boys were five years his senior slots
  
  Indeed, the sublime body-swerve that was to become a trademark was already in joyful evidence as he weaved past opponents in epic contests in the streets slots between Ashington’s seemingly endless grey terraces of miners’ cottages slots
  
  Aided by his mother, slots Betty, Charlton lights the candles on his 21st birthday cake at his home at Ashington (PA)Inevitably, as the prodigy began to star in school slots football, word reached the ears of the professionals slots
  
  Soon the Charlton household was besieged by scouts from League clubs, no fewer than 18 of them, but the object of their quest had little difficulty in making up his mind where he wanted to go slots
  
  Not to local giants Newcastle, whom he felt had taken his allegiance for granted, but to Manchester United, whose representative, an avuncular and sincere fellow name of Joel Armstrong, had told Cissie on first meeting: “I don’t want to butter you up, Missis, but your boy will play for England before he’s 21 slots
  
  ’’Accordingly, the 15-year-old inside-forward signed on as an amateur at Old Trafford in July 1953, initially taking a job in an engineering works before becoming a full-time player on his 17th birthdayAs one of Matt Busby’s Babes – a glib label for his precocious youngsters that the United boss actually loathed – Charlton found himself in the most stimulating slots football environment imaginable slots
  
  Over the next few years, he matured steadily alongside the likes of Duncan Edwards, Liam Whelan and Eddie Colman, helping to win the FA Youth Cup for three successive years from 1954 slots
  
  Lying in a Munich hospital, 11 days after the plane crash (Getty)Come the autumn of 1956, junior slots football could contain the blonde northeasterner no longer slots
  
  He scored twice on his First Division debut, going on to play enough games that term to earn a League Championship medal, as well as appearing in the FA Cup final defeat by Aston Villa slots
  
  Indeed, but for a controversial injury to their goalkeeper, Ray Wood, it is probable that Busby’s team would have become the first this century to lift the coveted League and FA Cup double slots
  
  That was how agonisingly close Charlton had come to attaining slots footballing immortality while still only 19 slots
  
  Eventually, of course, his name would stand among the game’s elite, but not before untold heartache had been endured slots
  
  Season 1957-58 saw “Bobby Dazzler,’’ as the slots sportswriters dubbed him, make further encouraging strides, his dashing skills topped off by spectacular power of shot slots
  
  Then came Munich, and neither his world nor Manchester United’s were ever quite the same again slots
  
  With manager Matt Busby in May 1958 (Getty)Disaster struck on a slushy runway on the way home from a European Cup quarter-final victory in Belgrade in February 1958 slots
  
  Having stopped to refuel, United’s plane crashed on the third attempt at take-off, the accident eventually claiming 23 lives including those of eight players slots
  
  Charlton was lucky, being catapulted some 60 yards to comparative safety, still strapped in his seat alongside teammate Dennis Viollet slots
  
  His physical injuries were superficial, but the mental scars bit deep and never again did he play with the same carefree exuberance which had characterised his game before the accidentHowever, soon he returned to action and played an integral part in a patchwork United side’s astonishing progress to the FA Cup final, riding all the way to Wembley on an unprecedented wave of public emotion which bordered frequently on hysteria slots
  
  They lost to Bolton Wanderers but that barely lessened the lasting impact of a heroic campaign which was to pass into slots soccer folklore slots
  
  Charlton is tackled by Tommy Banks during the 1958 FA Cup final, which Bolton won 2-0 (Getty)For Charlton, there had been a fundamental change of status slots
  
  No longer was he merely one of a collection of outstanding players, now he was by far the brightest star in the Old Trafford firmament, constantly under the media microscope, ever in demand, not the easiest of burdens for a naturally retiring 20-year-old to shoulder slots
  
  It was to be some time, however, before Chariton’s limitless potential was to be translated into solid achievement slots
  
  In an attempt to speed up that process, Busby converted him into a left-winger in the early 1960s, and while he was an enthralling flankman, especially when he cut inside to unleash the rocket shots with which he became synonymous, there was a nagging feeling of waste, that he spent too long on the fringe of the action instead of being at its hub slots
  
  With brother Jack at an England training session at Stamford Bridge, in April 1965 (Getty)For United, back to earth after that surprisingly rarified 1958-59 season, this was a period of rebuilding after the air crash, a trophyless interlude which ended in 1963 slots
  
  With relegation having been narrowly avoided and with inspirational new recruits such as Denis Law and Pat Crerand bedded in, the Red Devils beat Leicester City to win the FA Cup slots
  
  Charlton was a leading force in the regeneration process, which gathered impetus in 1963-64 when United were First Division runners-up again slots
  
  But the real turning point, for club and player, came in 1964-65 slots
  
  Charlton was switched to deep-lying centre-forward, where his acute vision and majestic passing ability could be utilised fully without denying opportunities to dribble and shoot, and United, now enhanced by the arrival of a young man named George Best, won the title slots
  
  With the glorious trinity of Charlton, Law and Best at their incandescent peak, they did it again in 1967 and then, in ’68, finally attained Matt Busby’s holy grail by becoming the first English club to win the European Cup slots
  
  Charlton, by then club captain, scored twice in a 4-1 victory over Benfica in the Wembley final and then wept uncontrollably at the significance of a glorious success which had cost lives along the way slots
  
  Charlton (right) got his FA Cup winner’s medal when Leicester City were beaten 3-1 at Wembley in 1963 (PA)Meanwhile, the balding maestro had hardly been underachieving for his country slots
  
  In 1960-61 he had excelled in an exhilarating side which won seven games out of eight and entertained royally, then he was England’s outstanding performer in the 1962 World Cup finals in Chile slots
  
  There followed a season or so when he made little impact at international level but then, after his positional change, he emerged as one of the most majestic playmakers the game has seen slots
  
  This full flowering of Bobby Charlton could not have been slots better timed, coinciding as it did with the 1966 World Cup finals, in which he played alongside older brother Jack slots
  
  Bobby’s part in England’s home triumph is difficult to exaggerate, the highlights being his gazelle-like run and fulminating strike against Mexico which revived the nation’s hopes after a stultifying start to the tournament, and his crisply executed brace in the semi-final against Portugal slots
  
  Enjoying a lap of honour as world champions in July 1966 (Getty)By 1970, Chariton’s light was beginning to fade a little, though he remained central to England’s hopes of retaining their trophy in Mexico slots
  
  Sadly, after helping to establish a 2-1 quarter-final lead against West Germany, he was substituted in order to save him for the semi slots
  
  However, the Germans had not read that particular script, hitting back to win 3-2, and the 32-year-old Charlton closed his England career after 106 appearances and 49 goals, both records at the time slots
  
  Indeed, while Bobby Moore and Peter Shilton were to collect more caps, his goal tally was not outstripped until 2015, by Wayne Rooney, and more recently by Harry Kane slots
  
  Charlton, to the end, remained typically modest about it, maintaining that the likes of Tom Finney and Nat Lofthouse played against fewer “weak’’ opponents and pointing out that Jimmy Greaves managed his 44 goals in a mere 57 games slots
  
  Back on the club scene, a more troubling scenario was developing slots
  
  Sir Matt Busby was coming to the end of his illustrious tenure and his European Cup heroes were growing old together, while Best was in the early throes of his own sad downward spiral slots
  
  Accordingly, United entered a period of tetchily turbulent transition, the team sliding into disturbing ordinariness under successive new bosses Wilf McGuinness, Frank O’Farrell and Tommy Docherty slots
  
  Charlton, frustrated beyond belief by what he saw as Best’s mindless waste of his talent, and aware of his own inevitably declining powers, helped his beloved Red Devils avoid relegation in 1972-73, then retired from top-flight slots football at the age of 35 slots
  
  He had garnered every top honour the game had to offer and held the club record for senior appearances (754) and goals (247) slots
  
  With George Best and Tony Dunne as United play Chelsea in August 1971 (Getty)Now most observers expected Charlton either to bow out of slots football altogether or to accept some benign figurehead role, as befitted his shining image slots
  
  It was felt he was too plain “nice’’ to enter the rat race of management, yet that is what he did, accepting the reins of Second Division Preston North End, a once-mighty power who had fallen on lean times slots
  
  It was a tall order and it didn’t work slots
  
  Though his depth of knowledge was undeniable, he lacked the ruthlessness and drive to lead, and his first season at Deepdale ended in demotion slots
  
  For the second, he came out of playing retirement, adding his nous and experience to an unremarkable side which finished around mid-table in the Third Division slots
  
  He never seemed truly at ease in the role, not cut out for the inevitable politicking it entailed, and in August 1975 he resigned after his board sold a player to Newcastle United without telling him slots
  
  Starting what was to be a short-lived managerial career with Preston, July 1973 (PA)Wisely, Charlton acknowledged he had wandered into the wrong field and thereafter concentrated mainly on a travel business near his home in Cheshire, where he lived with his wife, Norma (whom he had married in 1961), and daughters Suzanne and Andrea slots
  
  In 1982 he began running his own slots football schools, which became enormously successful, spreading from the Manchester area to many parts of the world, and he became involved with slots sports promotions slots
  
  Perhaps Charlton’s greatest and most influential role was as an ambassador for his country slots
  
  Having long conquered the natural apprehension about flying that was a legacy of Munich, he gloslots betrotted constantly in the last two decades of the century, whether coaching, pushing Manchester’s case for hosting the Olympics, acting as a consultant (notably in Japan) or merely attending major events slots
  
  Collecting his CBE at Buckingham Palace in 1974, with his wife Norma and daughters Suzanne and Andrea (AP)Preposterous though they may seem, stories of his fame in the world’s farthest-flung outposts can be taken as true, in spirit if not in the minutest detail slots
  
  There really were Eskimos, Bolivian peasants, Maori tribesmen, etc, with barely a dozen words of English at their command who would greet English visitors by grinning broadly and proclaiming something along the lines of “Bobbee Charlton, him mighty fine!’’ Cynics may scoff but such astonishing renown and affection never changed Bobby Charlton, who continued to live for his slots football and his family, scarcely able to believe the position in which he found himself slots
  
  In 1994 he was awarded a knighthood, though to his legions of admirers, from Lapland to La Paz, the honour was no more than an official rubber stamp slots
  
  To them, after all, he had always been Sir Bobby slots
