Thanks so much for reading, Andrew

Mali today bounced back with a 3-0 victory over Turkey in their second Group B game at the D Y Patil Stadium here. “At this level no game is easy, all are tough ones. After the loss (to Paraguay) we decided to treat each game as the final,” said Komla after his team emerged convincing winners over Turkey. Mali, who finished runners-up to fellow-Africans Nigeria in the 2015 edition of the championship, scored once in the first half after missing a spate of chances and then pumped in two more in the second half of the game....

Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma on Thursday regretted at not capitalising on a good start provided by his openers as his team slumped to their fourth loss in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL). Chasing a target of 191 runs, Parthiv Patel and West Indies batsman Lendl Simmons got the Mumbai side to a bit of a flyer as they were 35 for no loss after 4.1 overs. But after losing Simmons in the very next delivery, the batting crumbled and they finished at 153/9 in 20 overs, losing by 37 runs at the Feroz Shah Kotla stadium....

[HTML1] Having a few fans of Dungeons & Dragons on the Game Rant team, and a few more who loved the Neverwinter Nights games, made it easy to get excited about an MMO take on the universe and at E3 2012 we made sure to get hands-on with the free-to-play Neverwinter in development at Cryptic Studios. We enjoyed our experience and hopped on the opportunity to play it as soon as possible when the game launched its first of three closed beta weekends last month (watch our Neverwinter gameplay videos)....

There will be only so many opportunities for the U.S. to test itself against the level of opposition it will encounter at the genuine World Cup that will begin Nov. 21 in Qatar against 18th-ranked Wales, which, on Sunday, earned the last of 13 spots allotted to Europe in the 32-team field. In the second of two such games spread four days apart, just like the schedule at the actual tournament, the USMNT followed its opening victory over Morocco in Cincinnati with a 0-0 draw against favored Uruguay in Kansas City....

Webb retired as a referee in 2014 after officiating matches at two World Cups, including the 2010 final between Spain and the Netherlands. Earlier this year, the 46-year-old joined the Professional Referee Organization in the United States to oversee the implementation of the video assistant referee system in MLS. The league has used VAR in 132 regular season matches and 12 playoff games since taking the system live in August, with Webb encouraged by the results....

In his second game back from injury, Weber and Artturi Lehkonen each scored twice and the Canadiens snapped a five-game losing streak with a 5-2 victory over the New York Rangers on Saturday night. The 33-year-old defenseman missed 73 games following surgeries on his right knee and left foot. He had an assist in a losing effort in his first game back on Thursday. “The biggest thing is winning,” said Weber, who gave the Canadiens a 2-0 lead after one period....

Lamar Jackson (@ Patriots), Tom Brady (@ Panthers), Drew Brees (vs. 49ers), Ryan Tannehill (vs. Colts), Matthew Stafford (vs. Washington), Joe Burrow (@ Steelers), and Cam Newton (vs. Ravens) all have tough matchups on paper, but Jackson is still a must-start and both Brady and Brees have too many weapons to truly be off-limits. The other four are probably best left on benches, though. WEEK 10 STANDARD RANKINGS:Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker...

What does that mean? Even moreso than normal, it’s probably a good idea to rely on a wide receiver in your FLEX spot. Of course, we went to the trouble of ordering 120 guys so that you don’t even have to think that much, but it’s definitely a better week for receivers than it is for RBs.

It won’t count for anything because it’s spring training, but Lester shocked everyone Wednesday afternoon by hitting a two-run home run in an exhibition against the Rockies. To the opposite field, no less.

The cargo was launched aboard a Soyuz 2.1a rocket inside a Progress MS-17 capsule at around 7:27 p.m. EDT on Tuesday night from the Baikonur cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. The flight was successful, placing the capsule into orbit around nine minutes after launch, according to Russia’s TASS news agency. Aboard the specially designed MS-17 capsule is 420 liters of drinking water for astronauts aboard the ISS, 40 kg of air and oxygen, 470 kg of fuel, and more than 1,500 kg of other equipment including clothes and food....

The U.S. snake in question is the eastern hognose, which is known for the over-the-top display. The video was posted on Facebook in 2021 by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, which described the display as a “death performance.” It can be watched above. On October 14, the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation said on Facebook that the snakes are “especially active” this month and that people should “keep an eye out for these drama noodles of the prairie....

However, meteorologists’ efforts to warn residents about serious weather occurrences aren’t always appreciated. Such was the case for George Flickinger, chief meteorologist for Virginia ABC-affiliate WSET, who was bombarded with angry calls back in 2019, after the station aired part of Game 7 of that year’s NBA Western Conference semifinals on a split-screen with a tornado warning. In a response video that recently resurfaced online, Flickinger told the angry sports fans—in so many words—sorry, not sorry....

The reporter famous for uncovering the Watergate scandal with Bob Woodward at the Washington Post told CNN on Wednesday that he believed as many as nine GOP senators were “wobbly” and felt the president’s alleged actions were “deplorable.” Bernstein also said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell aimed to pour cold water on calls for further witnesses by wearing out members of his own party. The author made his comments on CNN yesterday after House impeachment managers laid out their opening arguments in favor of President Donald Trump’s impeachment and removal from office....

However, Watford are no pushovers and are currently way above their Saturday opponents in the league table. They are unbeaten this season, having won four in four in the Premier League and the first round tie of the League Cup. Javi Gracia has done a fantastic job as manager, rallying his troops and getting behind them whenever they have looked down-and-out. If it were two Roberto Pereyra goals and an equal number of Jose Holebas assists in the first game, it was Troy Deeney who turned up in the second against Burnley....

The Wayne Rooney transfer saga has come to an end, at least for now, with the forward deciding to stick with the Reds for another season. Many view this decision as a silver lining to a very poor transfer window for United. So what could 200 goals mean for an ‘angry and confused’ player like Rooney? Firstly, as a striker, scoring 200 goals for a single club, in one of the hardest leagues in the world, is by no means a small feat....
