Barcelona beats 10-man Sociedad 1-0 to reach Copa semifinals

3 days ago Arab News

The Brazilian popped up with a second-half winner after a VAR-impacted encounter had seen two goals ruled out for handball. “It’s been a good day but there’s still a long way to go in the tie. Soon after, Joe Willock somehow misjudged the flight of a Kieran Trippier cross when it looked easier to score. Same source and same end product on the half hour when Willock blazed over a volley from a Trippier cross. Those celebrations, though, were muted rather swiftly when former United forward Adam Armstrong bundled home a cross from the right.

Saudi Arabia beat North Macedonia in World Cup warm up match

Financial Fair Play, I know, is mentioned a lot, but that will guarantee it. Can we improve everything we deliver so we are not so reliant on huge transfer fees? Obviously I take my information from him so we go into the next window knowing it will be very different from the last one. Newcastle have conceded just nine goals, one better than any of the other top performers. I’d also like to mention the guys around those players in training — the defensive group we have is very good.”

Spanish soccer star Garcia ‘glad to pay more tax to help out’

Ronaldo was missing from the United squad after being dropped by Ten Hag after his refusal to come on as a substitute in Wednesday’s win over Tottenham. Ten Hag’s decision to lay down the law to Ronaldo could signal the beginning of the end for the Portugal attacker in his second spell with United. However, Ronaldo would surely have delivered a better finish than Rashford managed midway through the first half. Rashford didn’t let that mess drain his confidence and he surged into the Chelsea area for a fierce strike that Kepa palmed away. Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah hit the bar with a second half header from Mason Mount’s cross.

Celtics down Magic for third straight win, Spurs shock Sixers

The rebuilding San Antonio Spurs stunned the Sixers 114-105 in Philadelphia, where frustrated 76ers coach Doc Rivers said after the game his team was “not ready” to win yet. Carter then fouled Tatum and Tatum’s two free throws ignited a 10-2 scoring run that put Boston up for good. Terrence Ross led the Magic with 29 points and top draft pick Paolo Banchero added 23, but Orlando fell to 0-3. The Spurs withstood a 40-point performance from Philadelphia’s star big man Joel Embiid but held James Harden to 12. Milwaukee opened the game on an 11-0 run and never trailed against a flat Rockets team that fell to 0-3.

Newcastle beat Tottenham to move into Premier League top four

For Saudi Arabia, there is a lot more to come in the coming weeks and there is no point going all out now and peaking too soon. The hope is that it works in Saudi Arabia and that we get to see it very soon. After the impressive World Cup qualification campaign, the Green Falcons had not won a single match. All the four friendlies since clinching qualification have ended up with no Saudi Arabia goals with the saving grace that there have only been two conceded. An Achilles tendon injury had meant that the 28-year-old’s involvement in the World Cup had been in serious doubt.

UAE youth at forefront of food security push, minister says

“They certainly don’t understand the importance and value of the strategic relationship that the US has with the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and others. You have other evidence that shows that this was not about Ukraine and Russia — this was purely about economics for the region, for OPEC+, for Saudi Arabia. (Still) you have these people in Congress who don’t know what they’re talking about when they say they’re going to remove US personnel and military equipment. They didn’t like President Trump following US law, recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, moving the embassy, which is US law. “I am sure President Trump, if he was still in the Oval Office or goes there again, would welcome them with open arms.

EU leaders divided on gas price cap at energy crisis summit

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said a price cap would send suppliers away. The “gas price cap is like going to a bar and telling the bartender you want to pay half price for your beer. The Netherlands feared that if a price cap was set too high, supplies would simply sail by Europe and go elsewhere. “Everyone wants the gas price to come down, but you want to make sure that gas imports keep coming,” Prime Minister Mark Rutte said. Natural gas prices spiraled out of control over the summer as EU nations sought to outbid one another to fill up their reserves for winter.

Historical factors to play big role in Qatar 2022 groups stage matches

Only weeks separate us from the start of the 2022 World Cup, and the first event to be held in the Middle East promises to be different in many ways. In 1998, Iran pulled off a memorable 2-1 win in France. With Lionel Messi seeking glory in what is surely his last World Cup appearance, the Green Falcons could not have had a more difficult start. Argentina won 6-3 at the first World Cup in 1930, but it was this century that produced two unforgettable encounters. In Group G, they will renew acquaintances with three teams they have faced in the past two World Cup group stages.

Britain sanctions Iran over supply of drones to Russia

This month, the group refused to renew a UN-brokered truce that had been in place for six months. They have planted thousands of landmines, ruthlessly suppress residents of the areas under their control, and have abducted hundreds of Yemeni citizens, including women. They should be swiftly classified as terrorist organizations,” the Yemeni government said in a statement carried by SABA, the official Yemen News Agency. “To convince the Houthis to accept peace, the international community must exert significant pressure — and designation will be a powerful instrument for pressure,” he said. “Weakening and pushing this movement to embrace peace will help to alleviate Yemen’s humanitarian situation, which the Houthis exploit and fuel,” he said.
