Chelsea’s 2026-27 Women’s Super League began in underwhelming fashion, as they could only draw 1-1 with Aston Villa.

“You’re going to get this ass cooked, bro. You don’t even look on weight right now. Not even close. So, you’ve got a lot of work to do. We know what you’ve got to do after this,” said Ryan to First Take in his conversation with Benn. “Probably get in the sauna, probably do a lot of things. I’m chilling. So, I just don’t want to hear no excuses. I don’t want to hear, ‘Oh, you know, I was dehydrated. I was this. I was that.’ Please, just don’t give me no excuses.” That was the most revealing part of…

Speaking before the first meeting for the Spanish Grand Prix at the new Madring circuit in Madrid this weekend, Leclerc admitted he had been at fault and Hamilton said the pair had talked frankly and cleared the air…
The footage was posted by Ring Magazine, which described Fury as working on his fundamentals. Reaction from fans was less charitable. Some compared his aging appearance to his 61-year-old father, John Fury, while others focused on the lack of speed in his legs. The controlled sequence provides only a narrow view of Fury’s present condition. It still illustrates how differently he carries his weight at 38 compared with the mobile fighter who outboxed Wladimir Klitschko in 2015. The younger Fury bounced at long range, switched directions and forced opponents to restart their attacks. His unusual coordination made it difficult for…

The older you get, the more you realise that life serves you few absolutes. Contradicting facts and themes can be simultaneously accurate. Football is much the same. Arsenal would not have won the league without Viktor Gyokeres and his goals last season. Especially in light of the long-term injury to Kai Havertz- compounded by an injury to emergency option Mikel Merino in the second half of the season. Gyokeres became a crucial player by necessity. He had to adjust to a new team and a new league while cradling Arsenal’s title hopes on his shoulders. His scoring record in Portugal…

He still has the competitive drive, he’s not a shot fighter, and he can still make tons of money,” Rafael posted on X. “I remember after Bernard Hopkins first retired.

Had been mowing his lawn, going through scrapbooks his wife kept about his career, cleaning his garage. I knew after that call there was no chance he’d resist a comeback. He was back…
