On both the occasions, it was Edu Garcia who was fouled at the edge of the box by Dhanachandra Singh. Lanzarote produced two clinical finishes to grab all three points on offer. The understanding between both the playmakers was very effective in the context of the win. Garcia was roped only in the January transfer window and his impact was instant. This win takes ATK’s points tally to 20 points from 14 matches, but there’s still a lot of work for them to do....

The Yellow Army reached the finals on two occasions, in 2014 and 2016, but lost both the times to ATK. They reached the finals under David James in 2014. Peter Taylor took charge of the Men in Yellow in 2015 but they had a disastrous outing as they finished rock bottom of the table – with three wins, four draws, and seven losses. Steve Coppell again brought some respite to the ISL franchise from South India as they reached the final again in 2016....

Sergino Dest started for FC Barcelona in the iconic Camp Nou stadium, then did the same for AC Milan at the equally sacred San Siro. Brenden Aaronson left the Philadelphia Union to become one of the best players for RB Salzburg’s back-to-back champions in Austria’s top league, then turned that into a $34 million transfer to England’s Leeds United. Weston McKennie became Cristiano Ronaldo’s teammate for Italian power Juventus....

The latter two images were taken from photo galleries on the site of a bikini-clad Lana, Maryse, Naomi and Emma. I was checking the website to see if there was any interesting WWE news and didn’t really give the bikini photo galleries a second thought. That is, until I came across a tweet from a female wrestling fan who replied to WWE’s tweet linking to the bikini photos by posting the following comment:...

Compared to other couples and families in WWE, the SmackDown Superstar decided to keep his personal life hidden from the public. While on Talk is Jericho, he expressed mixed feelings towards social media. Sami discussed how he wanted to maintain privacy on social media and despite owning one, still drew a line to what fans could access from his personal life. Still, he also acknowledged the positive side, especially with his fundraiser for Syria....

And he pulled the trigger, caught his prey by the neck like a lion teething a deer, and knocked the ball past the onrushing Catalan player. Poor Marc Bartra already knew that he was screwed, so he tried to push Gareth Bale off the pitch and commit a tactical foul to halt the momentum. But the former Tottenham man was quick… boy, he was. What he did next was a sight to behold: he shook off the challenge and zoomed past Bartra....

India were recovering from a shock exit from the 2007 ODI World Cup in the West Indies. There was a need to introduce new young blood into the team and the process started with India’s tour of Bangladesh in May that year, where Ishant Sharma made his Test debut. He could not impress much with his bowling, picking up only one wicket in the entire game but the pace and bounce generated by him was a topic of interest and he was retained by the team for the tour of Australia as he was one to watch out for....

In the latest episode of ISL’s Let’s Football Live on social media platform Instagram, the former Kerala Blasters striker was asked a host of questions by Shaiju Damodaran - an experienced Malayalam commentator. When the anchor asked CK Vineeth about his immediate future, considering his deal at his current ISL club expires in a few days’ time, the forward replied that he had been in talks with a few clubs, with East Bengal being one of them....

The 41-year-old former defender thanked co-owners Abhishek Bachchan and Vita Dani of Asian Paints, who is also the first cousin of Mukesh Ambani. Materazzi is expected to have the role of a player-manager and becomes the fifth World Cup winner to join the ISL after Joan Capdevila (NorthEast United), Robert Pires (FC Goa), David Trezeguet (FC Pune City) and Alessandro Del Piero. The Chennai franchise has reportedly signed up Brazilian playmaker Elano and their squad is currently training in Bangalore, where Materazzi is soon expected to join....

Tonge has been trialling at English League Two outfit Port Vale for the past few days after his contract with Stevenage ran out, and he is being seen as an experienced option at the heart of ATK’s defence by the Kolkata club’s new head coach Teddy Sheringham if reports from sources are to be believed. That, along with technical director Ashley Westwood’s recommendation, has meant ATK could come in with an offer for Tonge in the coming days, irrespective of how he performs in the Port Vale trials....

Having been consigned by FC Goa to a defeat in their opening game, Chennaiyin FC coach John Gregory opted to make four changes to the team that started on Sunday, bringing in midfielders Dhanpal Ganesh, Francis Fernandes, Bikramjit Singh and winger Gregory Nelson. It also signalled a change in shape as Chennaiyin lined up in a 4-2-3-1 with Jeje upfront, Bikramjit and Ganesh sitting deep in midfield. North-East United FC coach Joao de Deus opted to stick with the same team that drew 0-0 at home to Jamshedpur in their opening game....

Jamshedpur FC, who have only just been formed, alongside Bengaluru FC, who have enjoyed considerable success in their four years in the I-League, are the two new franchises to feature in the ISL, which has now been recognized by the Asian Football Confederation (AFC). It must be noted however, that when the ISL announced the names of the eight ‘league partners’ back in 2014, almost every team except Delhi and Bangalore had a celebrity on board....

The former Aston Villa player and manager feels that consistency is one area of emphasis for him. “We will have to make everyone aware of what has happened in the past. Players have to be notified about that and I am wary of that. When we won ISL 2 and in the following season, our performance was unspectacular,” Gregory told PTI in an interaction. Gregory said he was aware of the fact that there is a record of reigning champions performing poorly in the subsequent seasons, pointing to ATK’s struggles in 2017-‘18....

Following the match against FC Pune City, he said, “I am very very happy and also it was a crucial game, we knew we had to win this one and now we can have a good rest and we can prepare ourselves better, be more calm to face Mumbai City FC. I think it was a great moment for us.” On being asked whether ATK left it too late in the match to score the winner, he said, “We have to be patient when we are playing such a tough team like them....

In case you didn’t know… Corominas had set the ISL on fire this season, with his brilliant displays in front of goal. the Spaniard, who was brought in from Cyprus ahead of the start of the 2017/18 season, netted 18 times from 20 appearances. The heart of the matter Coromoinas, who is better known as Coro’s performances have been quintessential for FC Goa in the recent times, something that has prompted the 2015 ISL finalists to extend the Spaniard’s deal, giving a substantial pay raise to the striker, the club confirmed to Sportskeeda....

Nelo Vingada’s men dominated the game thoroughly, but were let down by their output inside the final third in a largely one-sided affair under the lights in Kochi. The visitors, who have already booked their place in the playoffs, were handed a blow as early as the 23rd minute, when Gurwinder Singh received a straight red card for a last ditch foul on Matej Poplatnik. However, the ‘Men in Yellow’ failed to capitalize on the advantage as they struggled to put the finishing touch on wave after wave of attacks aimed at thwarting the Highlanders....

Those who hate anything big and global will hate this axis, too. Those who embrace free markets will celebrate the cutthroats, since they contributed mightily to a spectacular rise of productivity in the 1990s and helped smother inflation. Now, however, no big national economy is strong, all too many factories are underemployed, and one has to wonder whether price pressures are heightening the opposite risk: deflation. The United States, which has been haunted by the nightmare of deflation since its stock and Internet bubbles started popping in early 2000, is particularly vulnerable now that growth has slowed; core inflation is less than 2 percent....

Before describing the new PS5 controllers as shown in the patent, it should be noted that while these images have come directly from Japan’s patent office they aren’t guaranteed to be official. Sony could have multiple designs for the PS5’s controllers, significant changes could be made to the DualShock 5’s in the coming months, or a mistake could have been made in this publication. As such, while it’s definitely worth considering these new controllers seriously, it’s best not to be absolutely confident that they’ll be the PS5’s final controllers....

Naught Dog entertainment Game Director, Neil Druckmann, replied to that tweet by saying ‘looking good for a 1st timer’. These developments have prompted gamers to speculate on Warren’s involvement in the game. The 36 year old primarily appears in some TV series, but also appeared in ‘The Avengers’ and played the lead role in the movie Cougar Club. The technology that was used in ‘The Last of Us’ will be used in this game as well....
