Man United has to beat the odds and Bayern Munich to avoid Champions League elimination

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 16:44:56 GMT

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — The odds are against Manchester United as the three-time European Cup winners battle to avoid early elimination from the Champions League. United faces Bayern Munich at Old Trafford on Tuesday and needs to end the German giants’ record 39-game unbeaten run in the group stages to have any chance of advancing to the knockout rounds. But even that might not be enough, with Erik ten Hag’s team sitting bottom of Group A and also relying on a draw between Copenhagen and Galatasaray in the group’s other game. “What I know is I never think of a negative scenario, we think positive, we know what to do, we have to win to stay in Europe, it’s about that,” the United manager said Monday. “We will prepare the team with that feeling, with that belief, we have shown in the last weeks when we are at our best we can do it.”Consistency has been the biggest issue for Ten Hag this season. That was perfectly illustrated last week when United produced one of i...

Chelsea’s $1B spending spree hasn’t worked out. Pochettino wants to go back in the transfer market

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 16:44:56 GMT

Chelsea has managed to do something few thought could be possible: Spend $1 billion on players and not get any better.In fact, there’s a case to be made that the team which still held the status of European champion as recently as 18 months ago has deteriorated after an unprecedented spending spree that stunned the soccer world.Approaching the halfway stage of the Premier League campaign, Chelsea is languishing in 12th place — sandwiched between Wolverhampton and Brentford — having finished last season in the exact same position.That despite spending $280 million in the summer of 2022, $350 million in January this year and more than $400 million in the most recent offseason.Turns out Chelsea might need to spend some more.“Our reality now is midtable,” Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino said after the team’s 2-0 loss at Everton on Sunday that exposed many of its underlying problems. “And if we want to go up, we have to push ourselves.“When the transfer window opens, (we will) see wh...

Walk-off Wallace: Ravens punt returner goes 76 yards for TD in OT in a 37-31 win over the Rams

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 16:44:56 GMT

BALTIMORE (AP) — Tylan Wallace caught the punt cleanly — no easy feat on this wet day — then slipped to his left, spinning away from one potential tackler and racing past a couple of more while barely staying inbounds along the sideline.By the time Shaun Jolly came diving at his feet near the 45-yard line, Wallace had Baltimore in decent shape for a field goal — but after stumbling a bit, he stayed on his feet and kept running.“I’m like, ‘I can’t go down right here. I made it this far,'” Wallace said.In his first game returning punts as a pro, Wallace ran one back 76 yards for a touchdown in overtime to lift the Ravens to a 37-31 victory over Los Angeles on Sunday, snapping the Rams’ three-game winning streak.Wallace became the fourth player in NFL history to score a touchdown on a punt return in OT. Xavier Gipson of the New York Jets also did it this season, on Sept. 11 against Buffalo.“It just feels great to be able to make a difference in the game and help the t...

Stock market today: Wall Street inches quietly lower after hitting its 2023 peak last week

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 16:44:56 GMT

Wall Street is flat ahead of the release this week of U.S. inflation data and the Federal Reserve’s final interest rate decision of the year.Futures for the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average each lost less than 0.1% before the bell Monday.The Fed will will announce its next move on interest rates Wednesday. Most economists expect the Fed to stand pat and not raise its benchmark borrowing rate. It would be the third consecutive time that the Fed, after string of rate hikes to fight inflation, has left its benchmark rate alone. A sturdy labor market and steady spending are making it increasingly possible that the Fed can pull off a so-called “soft-landing,” whereby inflation is tamed and a recession is avoided.On Tuesday, the U.S. government will report on U.S. consumer inflation. Central banks in Europe are meeting as well this week, including the European Central Bank, the Bank of England, the Swiss National Bank, and Norway’s central bank.Cigna jumped nearly 14...

(CNN) — Lawyers for Donna Adelson, a South Florida woman charged with murder and other offenses in the 2014 fatal shooting of her former son-in-law, allege she has been subjected to “cruel and unusual punishment.”Adelson’s attorney, Marissel Descalzo, filed an emergency motion Tuesday with multiple allegations, including accusations jail staff are forcing the 73-year-old to sit naked and eat with her hands while in a small cell by herself.The jail staff is also accused of withholding medication from Adelson and making her go days without a shower.The motion argued the alleged treatment is a violation of Adelson’s Sixth Amendment rights because she has been unable to communicate with her attorney or help with her defense.Descalzo requests the court release Adelson on house arrest or force the jail to improve her conditions, release her from isolation and “place Donna in a unit where she can prepare for trial and speak to her family.” It also requests an additional alternative, asking...
