India win toss, elect to bowl against South Africa
- February 04, 2018
Both the innings had one common thing in that the captain of both teams pulled their teams out from the wood. The 23-year-old Aiden Markram was the surprise choice to replace du Plessis as captain. The 39th over was a short reel of his full range of abilities as he drilled Chris Morris over long-on for six, and then calmly helped him over Quinton de Kock's head for four when he responded with a bouncer.

The Gunners travel to Spurs in a week's time. The four-goal margin was restored before the game was out, though, and it was a big moment for Ramsey as he tucked the ball past Pickford from his final touch of the evening - Mkhitaryan again claiming the assist on an evening when it all went right for Arsenal .

Man Utd manager Jose Mourinho takes swipe at QUIET Old Trafford atmosphere
- February 04, 2018
Following Lukaku's fine left-footed finish on Saturday, Sanchez got on the scoresheet when he tucked the loose ball in having seen his penalty attempt - a spot-kick he had won - parried by Jonas Lossl. "Of course we are frustrated in terms of the result but the performance was outstanding against a Burnley side who are the most British of teams in terms of long balls and the way they play", said City boss Pep Guardiola.

Lindsey Vonn completes Garmisch hat-trick with 80th World Cup win
- February 04, 2018
Austria's Cornelia Hutter completed the podium (1:12.97), while Vonn's compatriot Breezy Johnson was fourth, ahead of Austrian Anna Vieth and Swiss star Lara Gut. Apart from winning a super-G in December, the first three months of her World Cup season were rather disappointing, marred by two crashes in Lake Louise, Alberta, a jarred back in St. (more...)

Chelsea ready to pay Sarri release clause to replace Conte
- February 04, 2018
Not a person who understands the rules. Despite Conte's protestations that he still has 18 months to run on his contract, many believe this is his final campaign at Stamford Bridge. "But from the start of the season, after our defeat against Burnley, there was a lot of speculation about me being sacked". Eventually, the Premier League champions landed Olivier Giroud from Arsenal , with Michy Batshuayi joining Borussia Dortmund on loan. (more...)

Virginia takes care of business this time at pesky Syracuse
- February 04, 2018
Virginia is coming off a win at home over the Louisville Cardinals. Isaiah Wilkins leads in rebounds with 6.98 while Jerome tops in assists with 3.6 per game. There were no such heroics on Wednesday. With 19 points on 4-for-17 shooting, Tyus Battle was Syracuse's high scorer. His ideal 9-for-9 obviously helped his point total, but he and the rest of the team must be much more efficient Saturday in order to beat Virginia . (more...)

Giroud Hungry for Success at Chelsea
- February 04, 2018
The 32-year-old links up with fellow new signings Yann M'Vila, Paul-Georges Ntep and Neven Subotic at the Ligue 1 club. I felt like he really wanted me and he really wanted to work with me. Only eight players from Europe's top five leagues have scored more goals than the Gabon striker since the start of 2014-15 season. The Premier League champions were linked to a host of strikers during the window and were believed to be close to signing Edin Dzeko from Roma before the move collapsed. (more...)

How President Trump Made the DACA Debate More Divisive With One Phrase
- February 04, 2018
For the "Dreamers" who would get a path to citizenship over a dozen years under the president's bill, that means the price of legal status is cutting off their parents. A much-ballyhooed bipartisan Senate compromise in 2013 - brokered by the so-called Gang of Eight, including now-Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, of NY, and Florida Republican Marco Rubio - imploded amid opposition from House Republicans and left years of political fallout.

Allardyce: Theo Walcott can be a key player for Everton
- February 04, 2018
And unfortunately, none of our first 11 in the first half played anywhere near their best. Allardyce accused his players of failing to follow his instructions as they fell 4-0 behind by half-time. "Swansea only had 30% possession but created chances, but I may as well have been talking in a foreign language". Jack Wilshere could also return to the Gunners lineup after missing the game with Swansea in midweek, with Egyptian Mohamed Elneny the most likely to give way. (more...)

Eagles legend Brian Dawkins is now a Hall of Famer
- February 04, 2018
Only a small handful have earned induction into the collection of distinguished players for multiple teams - whether it goes by "Ring of Fame", as it does in Denver, or "Ring of Honor", as teams such as the Buccaneers use. The New York media will probably not handle any delay to Eli's enshrinement with patience, either, so expect this to be a fun one. While he never did win the big game in his career, he will be remembered for what he did on the field for so many years. (more...)
