The goal came in the opening few minutes after Mohamed Salah was found brilliantly with a chipped through ball and the Liverpool forward fired at goal, as Edouard Mendy saved brilliantly to force it onto the crossbar. However, the rebound hit Cisse and fired into the empty net to give Egypt the perfect start. In what played out in very similar fashion to the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) final in early February, the two sides battled hard but the game produced few chances overall....

Barcelona’s wobble—a defeat away at Levante and a goalless draw at home against Slavia Prague in the Champions League—has allowed Real to regroup and overcome its own mini-crisis. Such is the nature of expectations around Real Madrid that a loss to Mallorca three weeks ago was interpreted in some quarters as a sign all was not well in the Spanish capital, despite the fact it was Real’s first reverse of the season....

Eight of the flipped seats are in three key states Trump won by narrow, and in one case razor-thin, margins: Michigan, Pennsylvania and Florida. All eight of those freshman Democrats are running for re-election this year and those elections are being closely watched by the brass of both parties. “The districts Democrats flipped in 2018 are the places where we might expect to see the most voters move from Trump to Biden, but there aren’t many of them,” says Dave Wasserman, House Editor for The Cook Political Report, which is nonpartisan....

The national team will once again be aiming to reach that “fifth game”, the quarterfinals, having gone out at the round of 16 stage in the previous five World Cups. “We are convinced that this team can reach the quarterfinals in Brazil 2014 as a minimum,” said Gonzalez Iñarritu in a FMF news conference Thursday in Mexico City. “We want to make history.” Gonzalez Iñarritu admitted 2013 was a poor year for the national team, which qualified for the World Cup by the skin of its teeth, but missed out on the other stated objectives of reaching the final of the Confederations Cup and winning the Gold Cup....

Early on, she relied a great deal on [first husband] Mel [Ferrer]. She was a good actress, had good instincts, but she got bad advice. We had a minor confrontation filming “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.” I would rehearse a scene in the evening that we wanted to do the next morning. Then she would come in the next day with stuff that was so far removed from what we had agreed to do....

“You just kinda shake your head and laugh,” Manning said when asked about Beckham’s criticism. “We won a few games before he was here.” Manning’s response comes after Beckham criticized his former team in a recent interview with GQ, suggesting he “kept (New York’s) brand alive” and was the “main reason” the Giants continued to get primetime coverage, even though they missed the playoffs in four of his five seasons....

Mystal appeared on the Friday installment of the daytime talk show The View, where he discussed his new book, “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution.” His book basically argues that the Constitution was written by rich bigots, and its laws have since been mostly interpreted by wealthy white legislators to take away the rights of minorities, women and the LGBTQ community. Mystal’s book includes chapter titles such as “Canceling Trash People Is Not a Constitutional Crisis” and “Bigotry is Illegal Even If You’ve Been Ordered to by Jesus....

The vote took place just two days after the caucus chose to remove Cheney over her repeated criticisms of former President Donald Trump. Cheney’s ouster was proof that Trump’s grip on the party remains “ironclad,” Republican strategists told Newsweek. Stefanik said in a statement shortly after the election that she was “truly honored and humbled” to have earned the support of her colleagues....

Warren, 70, a former law professor who specialized in bankruptcy law, on Tuesday tweeted that her proposal for a two-cent tax on America’s 75,000 richest families would produce trillions of dollars that could be put toward programs including universal child care for all babies up to 5 years old. Warren’s inclusion of child care in her plan to rebuild the middle class reflects a shift from her views in 2003, when she penned a book along with her daughter warning women that having children could devastate them financially....

A popular Dogecoin fan account posted a photo of what appeared to be a music festival stage that had been edited to include images of the Shiba Inu meme that is typically associated with the cryptocurrency token. The account also suggested Musk—a known supporter of Dogecoin—could DJ at the festival while Dogecoin could be used “as payment for everything.” Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, humored the idea, replying on Twitter, though it’s unclear if he will take it seriously or not....

Unsworth, a diver who assisted in the rescue, and Musk came into conflict in July of 2018, when Unsworth mocked Musk’s attempt at developing a submarine to transport the trapped soccer players from the flooded cave to the surface. Unsworth told CNN that Musk’s gesture was a “PR stunt” and Musk “[could] stick his submarine where it hurts.” The submarine was ultimately never used, though it was quickly constructed and delivered to the dive site in Thailand....
