Top scorer of the final, Jordan Santos of Portugal:
""The key to our success was playing well in the crucial matches.
This is an experienced squad, full of players who knew what it was like to be crowned champions, and that made the difference."
""This is the perfect way to end a fantastic year, bearing in mind we also won the Euro Beach Soccer League and the European Games.
It’s a great source of pride to represent your country in such a way."
"I don’t think I’ll sleep with the trophy, as it’s a bit hard, but maybe I’ll do it with the medal!""
After the trophy ceremony, Portuguese captain, Madjer, clarified his tears at the final whistle as "farewell tears"; he announced his retirement from international beach soccer, aged 42, bringing to an end a 22 year playing career, having claimed eleven individual awards at FIFA editions of the World Cup, as well as being by far the tournament's all-time top scorer with 88 goals and a total of 140 since the 1995 establishment of a world championship for beach soccer.
He debuted for Portugal against Chile in the 1998 World Championship, and was the only player to be part of all three of Portugal's title winning teams to date.
The announcement came in spite of plans he had recently revealed stating he would retire sometime in 2020.
Being widely regarded as the greatest player of all-time, his announcement was met with an outpouring of tributes from fellow players and media outlets.
Madjer revealed the news in an emotional speech to the media:
""A big hug to all Portuguese, I thank from the bottom of my heart all the support you have given me throughout my career.
I owe a lot to you, I owe a lot to this team, I owe a lot to everyone.
Today was my last game..."" *begins crying* ""...I want to thank all Portuguese, all my colleagues, coaches, all the staff, people who worked with me until today.
To say that I leave happy, fulfilled, proud to be Portuguese, and above all proud of this family that has been building more beautiful beach soccer, with fair play around the world.
Thank you, Portuguese pride!"."
The Portuguese team subsequently flew home from Asuncion the next day, arriving back in Portugal at 07:00 WET on 3 December.
Having accepted an invitation, the team then travelled to Belém Palace in Lisbon to meet with the President of Portugal, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa at 13:45 in the "Sala das Bicas".

List of African-American newspapers in Nevada
This is a list of African-American newspapers that have been published in the state of Nevada.
Nevada was "the last state to remove itself from the list of states that have never had a Black newspaper" in the mid-20th century.
While the late 19th century saw a flourishing African American press in many other Western states and territories, Nevada's African-American population at the time was very low, falling as low as 134 in 1900.
As a result, during that early period, "no Negro-owned newspaper, even of the most ephemeral kind, was published in Nevada."
To be included in this list, a periodical should be mentioned in a reliable source as an African-American newspaper published in Nevada.
List of January 2020 Hong Kong protests
This is a list of January 2019–20 Hong Kong protests.
Hong Kong police fired tear gas in Mong Kok, as they continued to try and clear the streets of protesters who had set fires to roadblocks on Nathan Road.
Armoured vehicles were seen clearing roadblocks set up by protesters using a variety of objects.
The crowd also chanted "Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our time" during the last few seconds of 2019.
The march, named "Stand shoulder to shoulder", was aimed at pressuring Carrie Lam and the government to accept protesters' demands.
Thousands gathered filling up the lawn of Victoria Park, from where the organisers started the march 20 minutes ahead of the planned 3:00 pm start.
As people marched out of Victoria Park, more people were waiting to get in.
Secondary school students, families with children, and elderly people had turned up to join the march.
The marchers called chants commonly heard throughout the protests, such as "Five demands, not one less" and "Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times".
The Civil Human Rights Front said the police asked them to end the march after clashes broke out in Wan Chai.
Officers soon began firing tear gas and pepper spray there.
The front said it immediately complied and asked people to leave.
It said they received notice from police at 5:30 pm, asking to end the rally by 6:15 pm.
Organisers claim over one million participated in the protest.
Police said 60,000 people attended the march at its peak.
The CHRF said the police decision to end the march showed that the government is unwilling to listen to the voices of the people and is infringing on the right of assembly of Hong Kong residents.
They warned that peace will not return to Hong Kong if police continue to adopt such methods.
Some protesters called a "Lunch with You" rally.
At about 1 pm, about 100 citizens gathered in and around Statue Square in Central.
Participants chanted slogans in the square, other held signs to protest police use of allegedly excessive force.
At about 1:45, the crowd walked towards Pedder Street.
The crowd then shouted "Hear the Sun" and disbanded.
More than a dozen riot police officers were stationed on Pedder Street.
Thousands of teachers and other protesters gathered at Edinburgh Place at night to voice their opposition at what they called "white terror" from the government.
Organised by the Professional Teachers' Union (PTU) the rally came after education secretary Kevin Yeung said the PTU was misinformed and called on teachers not to be misled by them.
Fung Wai-wah, the leader of the union, said "the government is making teachers scapegoats for the current social unrest".
Organisers said 20,000 people turned up at the peak of the rally.
Several hundred people began marching through Sheung Shui accusing the government and police of failing to take action against parallel trading in the district.
The organiser said there would be about 100 marshals to maintain law and order also stating that it was unnecessary as the authorised event will be peaceful.
A stand-off then developed after the police told protesters to disperse as soon as they reached the endpoint.
Police warned that they could be arrested for holding an illegal assembly.
Organisers claimed a turnout of 10,000 people.
Police said the crowd numbered 2,500 at its peak.
Some citizens continued to launch "Lunch with You" rallies in multiple districts.
Among them, in Wan Chai and Causeway Bay, demonstrators walked along Hennessy Road and Johnston Road, and some people raised banners and shouted slogans common to the protests.
Some citizens then launched "Sing with you" and "Lunch with you" rallies.
