Chicago lost to Atlanta, 23-17, to fall to 0-1 on the season, but 22-year-old running back Tarik Cohen gave his team and Bears fans a source of hope. The viral videos that featured Cohen during his days at North Carolina A&T got him noticed by NFL scouts. When the Bears selected him with the 119th overall pick in this year’s draft, Cohen had to answer the question of whether he could translate the skills from those videos to the professional level....

The former Manchester United captain has returned to Merseyside after 13 years with United and still feels he has a lot to offer at the age of 31.

How Schweinsteiger fell into Man Utd misery Only long-term injury victim Phil Jones is missing for Jose Mourinho to take on Jurgen Klopp’s in-form Reds. Following a number of high-profile changes already this term, the Portuguese has some more big calls to make before the Anfield clash. Wayne Rooney’s recent exclusion has led to United displaying a higher tempo in the 4-1 victory over Leicester City and the 1-1 one-sided draw with Stoke City, with Juan Mata reveling in the central role....

A landmark moment in an already glittering career arrived at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday, as the Red Devils skipper swept home a dramatic late free-kick. ‘Only Messi & Ronaldo above Rooney’ His effort earned Jose Mourinho’s men a point on the day, but of greater note was the fact that he now has 250 goals in United colours.

Root was hospitalised with viral gastroenteritis following a scorching day four of the final Ashes Test in Sydney last week.

Limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan on Saturday revealed prolific batsman Root should be available for the opening ODI at the MCG....

Indeed, Keio alumni (students and faculty) have led the assault on Japan’s postwar development model based on regulated markets and big government. They inspired rule changes that opened Japan’s cozy banks and brokerages to foreign competition in the late 1990s, and since last year they’ve led Prime Minister Koizumi’s crusade to slash pork-barrel spending on roads, bridges and dams. They’re also leading a revolution away from the dark-suited Tokyo U style, including in their ranks a rumpled former professor turned talk-show celebrity, and a surfer....

When: Jan. 1, 5 p.m. ET TV: ESPN Series: No previous matchups Coaches: Mark Helfrich (Oregon); Jimbo Fisher (Florida State) Players to watch: In a matchup of the last two Heisman Trophy winners, this game features seven All-Americans.

Dr. Michael Ryan, head of emergencies at the WHO, said the organization’s “best estimates” reveal roughly 1 in 10 people on Earth have been infected with COVID-19. That estimate is more than 20 times the number of confirmed cases worldwide and ultimately means “the vast majority of the world remains at risk” for being exposed.

Who knows what exactly sparked Rose to suddenly state, “Enough is enough. I’m going to tell the world what really happened on that set.” It could be due to the fact that Batwoman has since replaced Rose and chose actress Wallis Day to carry on the role.
