UCL or not, Man Utd confident on Griezmann The trio’s availability for the round-of-32 match at Old Trafford is unknown but they may all have missed out on a place in Jose Mourinho’s starting XI anyway. Jones was not in the squad for the 2-0 victory over Watford due to an injury sustained in the 0-0 draw with Hull City 10 days earlier. He was thought to be close to making a comeback against the Hornets but Eric Bailly and Chris Smalling started at centre-back and are likely to continue, though Marcos Rojo trained after recovering from a minor issue of his own....

Rooney, England’s record goalscorer, was strongly linked with a switch to the CSL when he fell out of favour at Manchester United. But the 32-year-old instead opted for a return to boyhood club Everton, ending a 13-year spell at Old Trafford, where he became the club’s all-time leading goalscorer and won five Premier League titles, as well as the 2007-08 Champions League. Rooney has signalled he would be keen to manage Everton when he hangs up his boots and the former England captain does not regret turning down a move to China....

In the process, Rose also got back his top position in the ranking charts. Sharma was happy to take a good final round as he took off for the next event, the Nedbank Challenge in South Africa. He said, “I think I played quite well. Can’t really look at the past three days, good that finally I had a decent round. Something good to take from this week for South Africa....

Losing Their Religion Maybe it’s time Hollywood gave up the Hinduism thing. Several groups protested last week when both TV’s “Xena: Warrior Princess” and actor Mike Myers used religious imagery in ways that Hindu activists said was offensive. Myers says he was actually trying to satirize pop culture’s fixation with Eastern cultures when he painted his face and palms for April’s Vanity Fair. But many Hindus, still smarting over Madonna’s mix of body paint and suggestive dancing at the MTV Awards, aren’t amused....

With France having already qualified and the Danes requiring just a point to join them in the last 16, there was always the chance this game could be a non-event and so it proved, much to the displeasure of the Moscow crowd. Deschamps made six changes, including leaving Paul Pogba, Corentin Tolisso and Blaise Matuidi – all of whom are on a booking, on the bench, and it led to a disjointed display....

It has become old for the crew to have problems, and after a couple mistakes, Harvick has brooded on the radio, letting his frustration be known.

Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Virat Kohli said on Saturday that he regarded winning their Indian Premier League opener against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) as one of their better wins. RCB struggled initially but edged past the KKR total of 177/6 with three wickets and an over to spare, courtesy a brilliant knock from Chris Gayle who scored 96 from 56 deliveries. “That’s probably one of our better wins. We spoke about playing fearless cricket and the boys backed each other....

Rubella is often called German measles or three-day measles. In March 2005 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced the elimination of congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) in the United States. By that time, vaccination reached more than 95% of school-aged children and about 91% of the entire U.S. population. Before vaccinations were routinely given to kids, rubella was primarily a childhood disease. The last epidemic in the United States was from 1964–1965 and had an estimated 12....

When the Coronavirus pandemic began, pretty much everyone in television found their work grinding to a halt, and the actress took that time to consider her options carefully. It was not a decision made hastily, and Rose found herself deeply considering the challenges and hardships she had endured during the filming of the show.

Giuliani, who served as former President Donald Trump’s attorney, was captured on video during a dinner held at Manhattan restaurant Cipriani. He delivered an impression of the British monarch as he recalled her praising his efforts as mayor following the September 11 attacks. “She said, ‘You did a wonderful job on September 11,’” he remarked in an attempted British accent. “And therefore I’m making you an honorary knight, commander of the royal something or other....

South Africa lost their opening match to New Zealand 23-13. Italy are currently top of Pool B with 10 points but have played one more game than everyone else. Rassie Erasmus will be sure to avoid complacency here as this is a match they are expected to win to seal Pool qualification. The South Africans should understand well the importance of not underestimating lower-ranked teams as they suffered a monumental upset at the hands of Japan at the 2015 edition of the Rugby World Cup....

However, it’s possible that some of the new Xbox Game Pass games for April 2022 have leaked online.

Before anyone leaps to an incorrect assumption, there’s no indication that WB Games Montreal has moved on from the development of Gotham Knights or is undercutting it before it’s launched. Rather, Senior Artist Megan Berry listed a mysterious project on her LinkedIn experience timeline alongside her work on Gotham Knights.

There was no thought of the wantaway Portuguese superstar as Manchester United’s attacking trio of Anthony Martial, Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford absolutely destroyed Crystal Palace during their 65 minutes on the pitch. Yes, it was only a friendly — but the Red Devils trio played with a verve and synergy together unseen during the majority of the team’s horrible 2021/22 campaign. All three attackers got on the scoresheet in a sizzling performance which was a far cry from the inconsistent efforts produced by the trio last season....

Ronaldo would miss out if the disciplinary committee of the Spanish Football Federation decides Wednesday to suspend him for more than three games after being sent off against Athletic Club Bilbao at the weekend, reports Xinhua. Ronaldo was sent off for raking his hand down the face of Carlos Gurpegui, but then made disrespectful gestures as he walked off the pitch which is likely to increase his ban. Nevertheless, Ancelotti is confident his striker will start Wednesday in the Bernabeu....
