Le Tissier penalty hands Man Utd victory on Champions League debut
Manchester United made it a successful debut in the Women’s Champions League as they secured a 1-0 win over Valerenga.Marc Skinner’s side made history after qualifying for the league phase of the competition and they made sure there was even more to celebrate after Maya Le Tissier’s penalty gave them a valuable three points. A cagey start sprung into life as Melvine Malard dispossessed a Valerenga defender inside the penalty area. Instead of laying off to a teammate, she forced a save from Tove Enblom and Elisabeth Terland saw her rebound cleared off the line by Michaela Kovacs.This gave the hosts the impetus to keep pushing, and they would get their reward. Arna Eirksodottir was penalised for a harsh handball despite keeping her arms down to her side, which allowed United captain Le Tissier to step up and score the […]

Basketbalistky USK Praha vyhrály na startu Evropské ligy v Bourges
Úřadující šampionky Euroligy se za první tři minuty a 50 sekund prosadily jen jednou, když Janelle Salaünová otočila trojkou stav na 3:2, a postupně nebraly ztrátu 3:7. Další pasáž vyhrály 6:2, ale na vyrovnaný stav domácí dvakrát zareagovaly trojkami Timy Pouyeové a Elodie Naigreové. Do konce první čtvrtiny otočily Pražanky stav díky dvěma šestkám Kaitlyn Chenové a koši Emese Hofové.V úvodu druhé čtvrtiny posunula USK opět do vedení Emma Čechová. V přetahované o vedení pomohla Ayayiová pěti body za sebou k náskoku 30:27 a od té doby už domácím nedovolily české šampionky jít soupeřkám do vedení. Po šestkách Petry Malíkové a koši Čechové natáhla šestibodovou šňůru dvěma trestnými hody Makayla Timpsonová a bylo z toho vedení 36:29. Pro Timpsonovou to byly první body v novém působišti poté, co se k týmu připojila až ve Francii po působení v Indianě ve WNBA.Kariata Diabyová třemi body na přelomu poločasu ještě zkorigovala stav na 32:36, ale Pražanky zlomily odpor Bourges osmibodovou […]
Fantasy Football Week 6 Start ‘Em & Sit ‘Em Running Backs: Rico Dowdle primed for revenge game vs. Cowboys
USATSI Tyrone Tracy Jr. missed the past two games with a shoulder injury, but he's cleared to play Thursday night against the Eagles. Now, we have to see how the Giants use Tracy in tandem with Cam Skattebo, who has become a must-start Fantasy option with Tracy out.In his past three games, including Week 3 when Tracy was injured against the Chiefs, Skattebo has scored at least 13 PPR points in each outing. He has at least 16 total touches in every game over that span, including 14 catches on 17 targets.For Week 6, I'm still going to trust Skattebo as a No. 2 Fantasy running back in all leagues. I expect him to remain the goal-line option for the Giants, and he should still get work in the passing game, especially with Darius Slayton (hamstring) out. Tracy should be […]
College football head coach salary rankings: Ohio State’s Ryan Day, UNC’s Bill Belichick crack top 10 in 2025
College football coaching salaries have reached staggering levels in 2025, with nine coaches now firmly in the $10 million club, according to USA Today's updated database. Programs are willing to pay top dollar to secure elite leadership, hoping to translate big contracts into sustained success on the field. But as the landscape shows, a massive paycheck doesn't always guarantee results. While national champions like Kirby Smart and Ryan Day justify their salaries with consistent national championship contention, several others are still struggling to deliver on the lofty expectations their paychecks demand.Bill Belichick's much-hyped transition from NFL legend to North Carolina coach is a prime example. Despite a five-year contract worth $50 million, the Tar Heels have yet to win against a Power Four opponent, leaving fans and administrators questioning whether even the greatest coaching mind in football can succeed in […]
