Belgium were dominant from the off and secured a comfortable victory through a Romelu Lukaku brace and goals from Michy Batshuayi and midfielder De Bruyne. And the Manchester City star was pleased with his side’s performance, noting the improvement from last year’s friendlies when Roberto Martinez’s side drew with Mexico and edged past Japan. “The second half was better than the first,” said De Bruyne. “The way we put pressure was more organised, it was better....

Roma finished four points behind Juve last season as Massimiliano Allegri’s men claimed the double by winning the Coppa Italia, as well as reaching the Champions League final. Bet on the Serie A title race! But despite Allegri allowing defensive lynchpin Leonardo Bonucci to join AC Milan in a deal reportedly worth €42million, De Rossi thinks Juve are frontrunners to claim yet another Scudetto. “When facing Juventus in the league, you know the real difficulty lies in their group: the defence is strong and their other departments are well-organised,” De Rossi told a press conference ahead of Roma’s International Champions Cup games against Tottenham and Juve....

Coleman hasn't (at least publicly) responded to the tweet, although he did retweet it from his own Twitter account. (Understandably, he's kind of busy with the whole Super Bowl thing coming up.) In case you somehow missed it, watch the ad again below and read what Coleman had to say in an interview with Sporting News' Vinnie iyer.

Where has he been since that night? To the Elite Eight in Syracuse. To the Final Four in Houston. To the top of the ladder one April night in New Orleans, snipping a piece of a net reserved for the NCAA champions. And now to this glorious afternoon in Indianapolis, where the Kentucky Wildcats detonated all the assumptions and opinions and assertions about what their program could accomplish with a persistent roster churn resulting from their charismatic coach’s recruiting wizardry and the NBA’s rule mandating that prospects may not enter the annual draft until they’ve been out of high school a year....

Last week, two .25-caliber bullets to the back of Robert’s skull ended his life at the age of 11. By then he was a career criminal, a pint-size Capone running with a South Side street gang. His rap sheet listed 28 charges, 23 of them felonies. Police suspected he was the shooter who, in the space of two hours on Aug. 28, sprayed bullets from a semiautomatic pistol into two groups of youths....

The incident happened at a popular tourist destination along the Rio Grande River. Video footage shows several boats near the cliff when tiny pieces of rock start to crumble and fall off into the water below.

At the third GOP presidential debate in New Hampshire on Tuesday night, it was mostly same-old, same-old, in spite of the all the preshow hype over a possible John McCain/Mitt Romney smackdown on immigration. But then Mother Nature stepped in. Asked to comment on a Roman Catholic bishop who compared his abortion stance to Pontius Pilate’s position on crucifying Jesus Christ, Rudy Giuliani opened his mouth to answer when lightning struck, quite literally, causing CNN’s sound system at the debate site to crackle and give out....

Monkeypox is currently spreading throughout the globe, with current CDC data showing over 2,100 cases in 37 countries. The U.S. currently has 99 confirmed cases. So far most—but not all—monekypox cases are among men who have sex with men. Monkeypox is not a sexually-transmitted disease. It is mainly transmitted through close, direct contact, which easily explains why it may spread among sexual partners. However, the reason for a higher proportion being among men who have sex with men, is so far unclear, and scientists are working to understand more....

Initial data indicated that the 18-ton, nearly 100-foot-long, core stage of the Long March 5B rocket, one of the largest pieces of space debris to have ever fallen to Earth in an uncontrolled fashion, had smashed harmlessly into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Mauritania in West Africa on Monday.

Now Senator Clinton is moving toward the Democratic presidential nomination, and emotions have little place in her campaign. Even discussions about her marriage, that gripping, grating psychodrama, come off as cerebral and qualified—when the candidate and her staff choose to have them at all. The Clintons’ marriage is important, they say, because it gave her the unparalleled experience of seeing a presidency up close. Except not “up close” in the dynastic sense; Clinton, they say, is an accomplished senator and an independent woman....
