After their loss in the opening game to Croatia, Gernot Rohr’s men bounced back to winning ways with a 2-0 victory over Iceland but failed to repeat that imperious form against Argentina as they lost 2-1, no thanks to a late Marcos Rojo strike, which ended their campaign in the global football showpiece. However, team captain John Obi Mikel along with Oghenekaro Etebo, Elderson Echiejile, Wilfred Ndidi and William Troost-Ekong have taken to Instagram to applaud the solidarity enjoyed during the tournament....

The slumping Eagles and their NFL playoff hopes were dealt a major blow after going down 37-31 to the lowly Miami Dolphins. Philadelphia led 28-14 in the third quarter but were outscored 23-3 for the remainder of the game in Miami, where the Eagles fell to a third consecutive loss. “You don’t want to be Captain Obvious. We didn’t f****** play well,” said Jenkins. “You know that. There is no need to beat a dead horse....

WEYMOUTH: Many Americans are worried about rising tensions between Taiwan and China. Do you believe you are heading toward inevitable conflict or do you envisage a peaceful solution? CHEN: We want to move in a direction of reconciliation and dialogue. We do not want conflict. We feel it is important to have good will and sincerity, but it cannot only be from one side. Your party has long stood for Taiwan’s independence, a position that is anathema to Beijing, which considers Taiwan a renegade province....

The 47-year-old coach from the small market town of Hinkley in Leicestershire was used to seeing his staff placing cones and talking through the afternoon’s drills ahead of training sessions. But his staff were nowhere to be seen. They were somewhere across town, at differing stages of a six-hour wait to withdraw some money from the bank. “There was a chance that you may not succeed in getting your money at the end of it,” Walley says....

Wenger’s men were beaten 3-1 at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea edged another step towards the Premier League title with a powerful performance which was simply too much for their London rivals to cope with. Arsenal and Wenger an embarrassment Marcos Alonso put the hosts in front with a goal described by Wenger as “a 100 per cent foul” and “dangerous play” - the Spaniard towering above Hector Bellerin and making contact with his countryman’s face to nod home - before a sublime Eden Hazard strike made it 2-0....

The 25-year-old returned to the Reds’ Melwood training ground on Thursday morning after scoring twice to help Egypt secure their place in the 2018 Fifa World Cup in Russia. And following Jurgen Klopp’s side stuttering start to the season, former Chelsea forward says it must be a collective effort from the whole team in order to turn results around and that starts against the Red Devils. “It’s a big game on Saturday, everyone in the world will watch the game,” Salah told club website....

An article in the Times claimed that agent Mark Curtis had been given permission by the Hammers to broker a move to Asia for the England international. No switch materialised, though, and Carroll will now see out the 2016-17 campaign at London Stadium. Snodgrass explains Barca snub Bilic insists that was always his preference, with the Croatian coach claiming to have no knowledge of any agreement within the club to move the 28-year-old out....

The 33-year-old underwent a trial with the Gunners as a teenager in 2005 but the club elected not to make his move permanent. Redmayne was the star of the show as the Socceroos secured qualification to the 2022 FIFA World Cup after a thrilling penalty shootout victory over Peru in the playoffs. The Sydney FC goalkeeper is considered a penalty specialist and was brought in the dying minutes of extra-time and went on to make the crucial save that fired his nation to a sixth FIFA World Cup appearance....

Scott demanded that Biden “needs to get his rear down” to the U.S. southern border and immediately address an immigration problem “he created.” Scott cited a recent spike in arrivals and said he doubts any sizable number of migrants are being tested for COVID-19. The Florida governor-turned Republican senator agreed with Kilmeade that part of the problem is Biden “not talking to Republican governors” in Texas or Arizona. The Biden administration paused border wall construction in January and has stated that many of former President Donald Trump’s actions are being re-evaluated....

When they first met Noah used he/him pronouns and identified as a “confused male” in touch with their femininity, but Eureka recognized the internal struggle Noah was going through. Eureka and Noah spoke at length about gender identity and the difficulties one can face in a conservative community like Spartanburg, but their time together was cut short because of COVID. When Eureka returned a year later to continue filming alongside co-hosts Bob the Drag Queen and Shangela, they reunited with Noah and learned they had come out as non-binary and now used they/them pronouns....

It was one of the deadliest hijackings in history: 125 of the 175 people aboard the Addis Ababa-to-Nairobi flight last week perished. The wonder was that anyone survived. The three men who rushed the cockpit 20 minutes into the flight seemed crazed, hopped up. One of them clutched a fire ax, another a fire extinguisher; the third brandished a paper-wrapped “bomb” in one hand and swigged from a bottle of Black and White Scotch with the other....

Juve joined Atletico Madrid, Monaco and holders Real Madrid in the semi-final line-up after sealing a 3-0 aggregate victory over Barca with a goalless second-leg draw at Camp Nou on Wednesday. Who should Barcelona sell this summer Dybala, whose two goals in the first leg proved decisive, thinks Luis Enrique’s side were the team to beat in the competition but now cannot separate the remaining teams ahead of Friday’s draw in Nyon....

The donation before this elicited a chuckle, but it was nothing compared to the “west side spreadsheet gang” donation. xQc receives hilarious donation during Cities: Skylines stream (Clip begins at 2:47:45) The chat was, of course, trolling xQc during the stream, teasing him for building a road over their houses, among other jokes. The donations came in steadily, and Felix got a solid chuckle out of one. It used a voice similar to Knuckles the Echidna, when saying they used to live in Flint, Michigan, and that the town here is so much better since they can’t die of toxic water....

Similar signs have appeared in the social media profiles of anti-abortion activists across the country, a supposedly generous offer seemingly aimed at appeasing the anxiety of those wanting an abortion and now barred from having one. The unlikely offers did not go unnoticed—or uncriticized—on social media. “I hate those signs held by smiling couples saying ‘we will adopt your baby.’ In my crisis pregnancy, knowing that people would gladly take the baby away from me but not help me keep it was worse than the pressure to abort,” wrote Twitter user Rebecca LaMonte from Maine....

Marine Corps Cobra gunships would ride shotgun alongside four German helicopters that are on loan to the U.N. Special Commission and waiting in Turkey to begin aerial inspections. The gunships are based on the Peleliu, one of four Marine Corps warships in the gulf. Should additional air cover be needed, the Pentagon could quickly call on the “balanced force” of about 60 warplanes it left in Saudi Arabia after the gulf war, then assemble “combat air patrols” of U....

That’s not to say that Watch Dogs’ graphics upon its final release were bad, but for a game that was (prior to its delay) going to be one of the major titles to launch the new console generation, Watch Dogs didn’t represent the massive leap forward that many were hoping for. It did get a PC release however, and with PC releases come PC graphics mods. Watch Dogs has only been out for a few weeks, so expect plenty more mods to come in the future, but for now a modder going by the online handle TheWorse on Guru3D claims to have unpacked the PC version’s code and created a mod that restores some of the effects seen in the original reveal trailer that later disappeared - in particular the “E3 2012 bloom” effect for the game’s lighting....

Unfortunately, a delay from holiday 2013 to May 2014 stole some of the title’s momentum, as many gamers intended to purchase the title alongside new Xbox One and PS4 consoles. However, even if enthusiasm for the game took a slight dip during those added six months, actual launch sales for Ubisoft’s hacker vigilante title remain strong - so strong that Watch Dogs has set a new 24 hour sales record at the studio....

The European champions ran out 5-1 winners, with penalties from Luka Modric and Rodrygo sending them into the break with a 2-0 lead. Marco Asensio and Vinicius Junior put Real Madrid four goals up on the hour mark before Valverde took center stage. Vinicius’ goal in the 61st minute was assisted by the former Penarol midfielder. Valverde swept home a stunning effort from outside the box in the 71st minute to complete the scoring for Los Blancos, before Celtic grabbed a late consolation goal....
