Despite being world's highest paid, Carlos Tevez crashes out of Asian Champions League

World's highest paid footballer Carlos Tevez has began his campaign with Chinese Super League side Shanghai Shenhua on a disappointing note after crashing out of the Asian Champions League qualifying round.

The 33-year-old Argentine could not save his side as they suffered an embarrassing 2-0 defeat at home to Brisbane Roar.

First half goals from Brandon Borello and Tommy Oar were enough to send Brisbane through to the next round of the championship.

The defeat was a hammer blow for Shanghai boss Gus Poyet, who had gone to such detailed lengths to prepare his team as he even fixed up a friendly against another Australian side the week before.

Tevez who is on a £615,000-a-week deal with the Chinese club was expected to shine on his debut, but he failed to make any meaningful impact in the duel.

Nigerian international Obafemi Martins tried to bring back Shanghai into the game when he was introduced in the second half, but the visitors held on for a deserved victory.

An 18-year-old Boko Haram suicide bomber, Amina, who was intercepted by men of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) on Tuesday in Maiduguri, said she was given N200 for the mission. She said this in Maiduguri that she was abducted two years ago by the sect members in Madagali, Adamawa, and taken to Sambisa forest. One of the suspected suicide bombers intercepted by security agents in Maiduguri on Tuesday “They gave us N200 each which they said we should use to buy food for ourselves. “ It took us three days to come to Maiduguri on a motorcycle. We were directed by the sect members to detonate our explosives any where we saw any form of gathering. “They said if we press the button, the bomb would explode and we will automatically go to heaven. “I was scared, so, I told them that I could not detonate any explosive. So, they said if Zainab detonated her own, it would serve the purpose. “On our way to Maiduguri, we encountered the military and they were shooting. I was very scared and the people that brought us ran away. “I am from Imam Shekau’s faction of Boko Haram, even though I have never seen Shekau. But I hear about him in Gobarawa,” Amina said. She said that her father, mother and younger brother, Umar, were all killed when they tried to escape from the Boko Haram enclave where they were held hostage. “We came from Gobarawa along Damboa, Madagali and Algarno axis, in a community where a lot of us were held hostage and married off by the sect members. “I also am married to a Boko Haram Commander known as “Amir”. The NSCDC Commandant in Borno, Abdullahi Ibrahim, said the command had handed over the suspect to the Garrison Commander, 7 Division of the Nigerian Army, Maiduguri, “ for proper investigation’’. The Theater Commander, Operation Lafiya Dole, Maiduguri, Maj.- Gen. Lucky Irabor, confirmed that the suspect was in custody of the Army, and that she would undergo investigation. “We are going to profile her as she would give us the lead to get to other insurgents,” Irabor said. Personnel of the NSCDC had earlier intercepted two female suicide bombers, who tried to ram into motorists at the NNPC Mega Station along Damboa Road, Maiduguri. The Commandant of the corps, Ibrahim Abdullahi, disclosed that the incident occurred at about 6.45 a.m. “Our personnel at the NNPC station intercepted two female suicide bombers who were targeting motorists on the long queue at the NNPC mega petrol station at about 6.45 a.m. “One of the bombers got scared and threw away her bomb and was instantly arrested, while the other one began to run after people with her explosive but luckily, she was shot on the leg by our personnel after he chased her to a safe place,’’ Ibrahim said.
