Fery made a promising start when he pushed Zverev to deuce in his first service game, and responded immediately after going a break down three games later.After arguing with the umpire over a problem with the technology for let calls, a fired-up Fery got the first set back on level terms – helped by a sublime angled drop shot that had the crowd leaping to their feet.The pair continued to go toe-to-toe, but when the tie-break arrived it was Zverev who raised the intensity, whizzing through seven points without reply to take the opener.Having found his level, the 6ft 6in…
Graeme Souness, Charlie Nicholas, and Gordon Strachan root for Norway in a gone viral Paddy Power video ahead of the England World Cup game. Paddy Power captioned their post: “Ahead of England’s next World Cup match, a certain cohort of Scottish people are suddenly feeling very Norwegian…” Graeme Souness began saying in the video: It’s been a long journey for us Norwegian fans.

We’re in the quarter-finals and I’ve never been more proud of my country.” Gordon Strachan: Ro!…

Football FanCast’s Verdict Credibility Celtic’s transfers could be like London buses as they welcome one before potentially welcoming another at the same time. Alas, there’s still a long…
The personal history between Teofimo Lopez Jr. and Rolly Romero spilled into the open Thursday when Teofimo Lopez Sr. accused the WBA welterweight champion of pretending to be their friend before the two meet for Romero’s title on August 22. The exchange erupted during the kickoff press conference after Lopez Sr. reflected on Romero encouraging him to move his son up to 147 pounds following Teofimo’s loss to Shakur Stevenson. He then shifted his attention directly to Romero. “You was never our friend,” Teofimo Sr. said to Rolly. “Nobody knew who the [expletive] you was. And you came and started…

At 33, Lukaku has scored an impressive three goals but has done so by playing fewer than 50% of minutes, often coming on as a substitute and taking advantage of a tired defence reeling from the strong pressing of 25-year-old Atalanta…
