Erling Haaland had given City an early advantage, scoring twice to raise his tally to 11 goals in eight games. His clinical finishing highlighted his continued dominance, but defensive lapses allowed Monaco to fight back. First, Jordan Teze was left with too much space…

Liverpool suffered a troubling Champions League defeat as Galatasaray claimed a 1-0 victory in Istanbul, courtesy of Victor Osimhen’s first-half penalty. The reigning Premier League champions struggled defensively and lacked creativity, leaving manager Arne Slot with more questions than answers. The game’s decisive moment came early when Galatasaray were awarded a penalty after Ilkay Gündogan and Baris Alper Yilmaz broke through Liverpool’s makeshift defense. Osimhen calmly converted, drilling the ball down the centre past Alisson. The result would have been more decisive had Osimhen not missed two clear second-half chances. Liverpool had a late opportunity to equalize in the 89th…

The Miami Dolphins recorded their first victory of the season with a 27-21 home win over the New York Jets. However, the triumph was overshadowed by a serious injury to star receiver Tyreek Hill, who left the game with a dislocated left knee, likely ending his season.

After landing awkwardly on his left leg, he was helped off the field and transported to a local hospital for evaluation. Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel confirmed the severity of the injury and praised Hill’s positive…

Bullerön, a mile-long island with old fishing huts, summer cottages, and wooden jetties, is one of the main highlights of the newly created Nämdöskärgården Marine National Park. The park, covering 25,000 hectares, is Sweden’s second marine national park and is mostly water, protecting delicate Baltic Sea ecosystems. Approved by the Swedish parliament in June 2025, it coincides with a national ban on bottom trawling in marine protected areas, a fishing method compared to “bulldozing a rainforest.” Sweden is the first European…

The 31-year-old, who gained fame as a teenager after marrying actor Doug Hutchison, exited Dr. Gary Motykie’s clinic with their face carefully wrapped in bandages.

A senior aide to UK minister Liz Kendall has sparked concern by suggesting AI companies would never have to compensate creatives for using their work to train artificial intelligence systems. Kirsty Innes, recently appointed as a special adviser to the secretary of state for science, innovation and technology, made the statement in a now-deleted post on X in February, seven months before taking up her ministerial role. Innes wrote: “Whether or not you philosophically believe the big AI firms should compensate content creators, they in practice will never legally have to.” She added that the use of creative content “can…

Luke Donald and his European team faced a fiery reception from fans at the Ryder Cup opening ceremony at Bethpage on Wednesday. The tens of thousands of spectators cheered and jeered with equal fervor, but New York Governor Kathy Hochul bore the brunt of the crowd’s anger. Carson Daly, the ceremony’s host, tried to ease tensions, joking that Hochul was “not Roger Goodell,” a reference to the unpopular NFL commissioner. The crowd remained unsympathetic. Fans shouted over the governor as she attempted to welcome attendees, dismissing her remarks and questioning her knowledge of the state. Donald got off comparatively lightly.…
