Alexis Sanchez left fuming with Jose Mourinho after being dropped
- October 01, 2018
Mourinho, speaking ahead of United's Champions League clash with Valencia on Tuesday, refused to answer whether he had spoken to executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward following the defeat to West Ham . The manager isn't on the pitch, is he? You look at our team today and we had a very strong team.

- October 01, 2018
Atletico hasn't lost in five league games at the Bernabeu, winning three and drawing the last two.

Yankees set multiple records in 100th win of 2018
- October 01, 2018
The numbers are nice, but as Martinez said, the season "was exciting, but now we're focused on the playoffs". Betts also became the first batting champion in the AL or National League who also hit at least 30 home runs and stole at least 30 bases in the same season - no wonder vendors were selling Betts bumper stickers outside Fenway before the game.

Greatest of all time: Thomas Bjorn hails his European Ryder Cup heroes
- October 01, 2018
Europe's captain Thomas Bjorn shrugged off an incident involving Rory McIlroy as tempers threatened to boil over on a raucous second day at the Ryder Cup . He re-enacted his Hole 16 squat celebration from Friday's Day 1. The course at Le Golf National was set up to suit the Europeans. I realise as a leader of this team and as a captain the brunt of it is going to be on my plate and I accepted that when I took this role. (more...)

Europe surges into four-point lead over United States at Ryder Cup
- October 01, 2018
Francesco Molinari wrote himself into Ryder Cup folklore with five points from five matches, the last of those tipping Europe over the magic 14½ mark as he beat veteran Phil Mickelson . The thing about this event is that reputations built over just three days last for two years. "You've got a World Golf Championships, you've got another major championship, you've got the Playoffs and then you have the Ryder Cup on the back side". (more...)

Steelers Have ‘No Serious’ Trade Offers For Le’Veon Bell
- October 01, 2018
The club is seeking at least a second-round draft pick plus a "good" player in return, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network said. The Steelers' position on Le'Veon Bell appears to be pivoting. All that makes Bell a one-year rental. So far, however, no teams have matched the Steelers' terms for a trade, Rapoport reported. Bell would have to agree to a trade by signing his $14.54 million franchise tender with the Steelers and he can't be traded until he signs. (more...)

Winston returns to work, Bucs not naming starter
- September 30, 2018
So we know what we're going to do. To put these numbers in perspective, Winston's best passer rating in a season came past year at 92.2, when he also threw for 19 Touchdowns. Fitzpatrick is expected to meet with the media on Thursday. Without Winston, the Buccaneers' offense has thrived and Fitzpatrick became the first quarterback in the league's history to pass for more than 400 yards in three consecutive games. (more...)

But this was no time to celebrate. "We knew how much was on the line to keep that distance", Stenson said afterward, still buzzing from his clutch finish.

OSU holds off Penn State
- September 30, 2018
But just like a year ago, when J.T. Barrett led an incredible comeback in Columbus for a 39-38 win, the Buckeyes simply found a way to get the job done when they absolutely had to. The Buckeyes went 96 yards in the fourth quarter for the win. Miles Sanders coughed up the ball after being hit by Ohio State linebacker Tuf Borland , and the Buckeyes' Dre'Mont Jones hopped on the ball at the Penn State 25. (more...)

Manchester City v Brighton - Confirmed Lineups: Pep Guardiola missing star names
- September 30, 2018
That suggests they might limit City to a respectable scoreline, although the fact that Guardiola's team scored three at home to Brighton last season indicates they have the capability to open a wider gap this time. Every day he's having treatment. "Now he's injured, he's not a physical problem, he's injured and when he's OK he's coming back and when he decides to play he's going to play". (more...)

Bottom-placed Leganes stun Barcelona in La Liga
- September 30, 2018
Barcelona's Philippe Coutinho opened the scoring early, but the host rallied with goals two minutes apart in the second half to earn its first win in six league games this season.

OT: Ryder Cup 2018
- September 30, 2018
Jim Furyk's captain's picks have been absent. All 12 players from each team will play singles matches. He doesn't look like the same guy who won at East Lake last Sunday, but it hasn't been the easiest of roads for him either. Can you blame them for keeping quiet? But it was not just the points tally that will have sent European captain Thomas Bjorn off to dinner on a high, but the crushing nature of the victories as the home team's clean ball striking enabled them to deal much better ...

Barty knocks out Kerber, advances to Wuhan Open quarters
- September 30, 2018
While the Puerto Rican will be delighted with the 37 winners she struck as a result of her bold approach, she will be concerned in equal measure by the 50 unforced errors that pinged off her racquet. The world No.17 raced out to a 5-2 lead but couldn't serve out the set, opening the door for Kerber to lock up the scores at 5-5. 20-year-old Sabalenka would become the youngest player to hold a title at Premier 5 level or above if she takes the title - now Indian Wells and US Open champion ...
