The Ethiopian Football Federation (EFF) has shortlisted five coaches from the list of 27 applicants that applied for the national team coaching position.

The biggest surprise was the exclusion of Tom Saintfiet, who formerly coached Walia, and Serbian Petrovic, who had earlier been rated as favourites.

Reports have now placed former Ghana coach Goran “Plavi” Stevavonic as favourite to replace Sewnet Bishaw with the announcement set for Saturday in Addis Ababa.

Among the coaches shortlisted are Serbian Stevanovic, Lars Olof Mattson (Sweden), Diego Garzito (Italy), Mariano Bareto (Holland) and Zoran Filipovic (Portugal).

Profiles of shortlisted coaches:

Goran Stevanovic (Serbia)

He was appointed Ghana coach in 2011 and sacked on March 19 2012. On June 2013 Stevanovic was hired by the Greek Super League side Veria FC and he left the position in August 2013.

Stevanovic signed an one-year deal with Chinese side Qingdao Jonoon in September 2013 and was sacked at the end of 2013 season after Qingdo relegation to China League one.

Lars Olof Mattson (Sweden):

Mattson took charge of Sierra Leone National team in January 2011 and in March of the same year expressed his desire to remain in the job once his contract expired.

In 2011 Mattson’s contract was extended until the 2012 Afcon qualifying campaign. His appointment by the Sports ministry was not recognised by the Sierra Leone FA . However, after amicable agreement he was confirmed to the post in 2012.

On 28 March 2013, Mattson quit his job and announced he wanted to take a break from football. However, the Sierra Leone Football Association denied knowledge of the resignation.

Diego Garzito (Italy):

Born in Italy, Garzitto was raised in France, and spent his entire professional career in his adopted nation, playing as a defender for CS Louhans and Ajaccio.

After coaching in the lower leagues of France, Garzitto took charge of the under-20 Ethiopian national team, leaving the position in August 2001. He then took charge of the national team of Togo in July 2002 but left two months later returning to France.

Garzito took charge of Ethiopia national team in 2006 before resigning two months later where he joined TP Mazembe and took them to the 2009 CAF champions league title before coaching Moroccan side Wydad Casablanca.

Mariano Barreto (Holland)

He coached Ghana between 2003-2004, then coached CS Maritimo 2004-2005, Al Nasr 2005, Naval 2006-2007 and Al Qadisiyah in 2011.

Zoran Filipovic (Portugal)
Born in Titograd, SR Montenegro, SFR Yugoslavia made his name in Yugoslavia as a striker with Red Star Belgrade during more than ten seasons at the club (from 1969 to 1980).

He played a total of 520 games for the club, scoring 302 goals. He was the Yugoslav First League top scorer in 1976/77 season with 21 goals.

He also still holds the club record for most goals in European competitions – scoring 28 goals for Red Star in European Cup, Cup Winners' Cup and the Uefa Cup.

A U.S. firm has initiated a lawsuit against Malaysia Airlines and Boeing over the Beijing-bound flight MH370 that disappeared over 19 days ago, and is presumed to have crashed in the south Indian Ocean, killing all 239 on board.

Chicago-based Ribbeck Law, which also represents 115 passengers aboard Asiana Airlines flight 214 that crashed in San Francisco in July, has filed a petition on behalf of Januari Siregar, whose son was on the Malaysia Airlines flight.

“We believe that both defendants named are responsible for the disaster of Flight MH370,” said Monica Kelly, lead lawyer on the case.

The petition is seeking to obtain the identity of manufacturers of various plane components, and the company or person who last inspected the fuselage and provided maintenance. Kelly said that additional pleadings will be filed against other potential defendants in the days to come.

Meanwhile, analysts are continuing to disseminate satellite data in order to pinpoint the wreckage. Based on signals sent out by the aircraft, officials reached the conclusion that the crash site was in the Indian Ocean. Now, a final partial signal from the aircraft is also being looked at for possible additional clues.

Chris McLaughlin, senior vice president of Inmarsat, the U.K. company that operates the satellite that picked up the signals, told the Wall Street Journal that this last transmission originated “with the aircraft for reasons not understood.”

(CNN) -- How do you solve the problem of choking road traffic in one of the world's bustling megacities? You bring in the robot cops.

In Kinshasa, the sprawling capital of the Democratic Republic of Congo, two humanoid robots have been installed in high-traffic areas to regulate the flow of vehicles and help drivers and pedestrians traverse the roads safely.

The goal is to ease the traffic woes of commuters and cut the number of road accidents in the center of Kinshasa, a city of some 10 million people.

"It is an innovation about road safety," Vale Manga Wilma, president of the DRC's National Commission for Road Safety (Commission Nationale de Prevention Routiere), told CNN.

"The traffic is a big problem in the rush hours," he explained. "With the robots' policemen intelligence, the road safety in Kinshasa becomes very easy."

Kenenisa Bekele - Local Football Can Learn From My Sport

The early exit of Ethiopian football clubs from this year's CAF inter-clubs competitions continues to spark debate and soul searching in the sport loving African country. National champions Dedebit FC Ethiopian and Cup winners Defense FC were ceremoniously dumped out before the second round of Champions league and Confederation Cup respectively.

This has prompted the football fraternity to search for answers and ask if this is symptomatic of where the national game is headed. Olympic and World champions Long and middle distance runner Kenenisa Bekele follows up on Ethiopian football keenly and believes his sport may have a few helpful lessons for football. According to the well decorated Ethiopian athlete, professionalism across the various arms of football needs to be the foundation of the sport in Ethiopia, "lt is essential to lay down the basic frameworks to reinforce both the national team and the clubs. Encouraging work has been seen in the last two years with some pleasing results for the national team but there ought to be structures in place that ensure continuity and sustainability of notable achievement reached. Without such structures the sport will have these up and down periods. Football is very widely accessed sport which requires organized professionally run structures that spearhead the sport not temporary injection and bursts of resources that bring short term success. Experience from other sports in this country's should also be considered. For my sport Athletics has over time established a standard that sees athletes come to our country to learn from our success. I am sure Ethiopian football can also find how we run our affairs could be of benefit to them"

Defense FC captain, Tilahun Wolde says that as a nation Ethiopia still lags behind in accumulated experience needed at the top level of competition. And this according to him is one of the major reasons why Defense was knocked out of Orange CAF Confederation Cup competition early. "Playing more often against top international teams with both the national; team and the clubs will go some way to reduce the lack of experience and helps to be ready to perform better in the future continental matches." Said Wolde.

Coach Paulos Getachew, who was in charge of Ethiopian Coffee FC during the 2012/2013 season for Confederation Cup says that among the reasons for lack of success for the Ethiopian clubs is the poor financial structures of the clubs. The investment into football as well as the organization and infrastructure lags behind that from other countries you compete against and this filters through from clubs to the national team. President of the Ethiopian Football Federation, Mr. Junedin Besha says that he is concerned about the failure of Ethiopian clubs to mount credible challenge in CAF competitions. He says "This is of grave concern for me personally and of course it reflects on the status of our game which directly impacts the national team. We are going to hold discussion with the clubs face to face with a view to assist clubs run effectively and improve on the basic requirements that ensure success. Clubs should examine their internal dynamics. Lack of strong clubs means lack of strong National team. We are going to undertake considerable amount of work ensure the success of National team continues in the year to come and our main objective is to qualify for the 2015 African Cup of Nations."

Man arrested for allegedly raping Ethiopian woman

BEIRUT: Police detained two employees at an employment agency for domestic workers over the rape of an Ethiopian woman, the Internal Security Forces said in a statement Sunday.

On March 17, a 33-year-old Ethiopian woman, identified as B.E., on a domestic worker contract in Lebanon, filed a complaint at the Tripoli police station, claiming she was raped by an employee at the agency.

B.E. and her employer had gone to the agency’s office in the northern town of Koura in a bid to resolve problems between them, the ISF said. The agency’s secretary, identified as L.S., 24, phoned A.Z., 40, an employee at the office, to settle the dispute.

Upon his arrival, the man reportedly sought to “discipline” B.E. by forcing her to take off her clothes, beating her with his belt and raping her. The man was arrested along with the secretary, after a doctor corroborated the Ethiopian woman’s allegations.
