It was that kind of error-strewn, forgettable night. Then, a diminutive number 47 emerged from the home bench and the applause began. The reputation for youth development in these parts historically lies with Manchester United, from the Busby Babes to Fergie’s Fledglings, but City’s academy has played an important role behind the scenes of rapidly changing circumstances over the past 20 years. Relaunched under the expert guidance of Jim Cassell at the end of the last century, a youth set-up housed at Platt Lane and then Carrington provided a source of identity and income as City found their feet once again in the top tier....

Georginio Wijnaldum’s first-half header was enough to seal three points for the Reds at Anfield and keep them in touch with runaway leaders Chelsea.

The third-seeded Italian clinched his seventh title overall, all of them on outdoor clay. No. 4 Gasquet was also going for his second ATP title of 2018. Fognini won the Brazil Open in March, and Gasquet won on grass at s-Hertogenbosch last month, the Frenchman’s 15th title. Fognini won five straight games in the opening set after conceding the first break of the match. Three straight double-faults let Fognini down in the second set as Gasquet went on to force the decider....

Cynics can be forgiven for taking such a view. In years past, Japan has often announced regulatory changes but not done much to implement them.

Nikko Cordial, by contrast, behaved the way most Japanese firms do; when its misdeeds came to light it promptly admitted fault and a number of its top executives resigned....

There are other colorful varieties of quartz gemstone, including amethyst and Tiger’s Eye. Like clear quartz, you can also use amethyst for holistic healing. Since clear quartz is one of the zodiac sign Aries’s birthstones (along with diamonds), quartz’s calming and clarifying abilities are especially well-suited to help soothe Aries’s fiery, turbulent emotions. The healing and amplifying properties of quartz can feel so effective because the gemstone is piezoelectric, meaning that it disperses negative energy and produces an electric charge when compressed....

There used to be a time when jiu-jitsu fighters were largely considered amateur athletes. However, this is no longer the case, thanks to promotions like ONE Championship.

In an interview with ONE, Cleber Sousa talked about how the Singapore-based martial arts organization is instrumental in jiu-jitsu’s newfound mainstream appreciation:...

The Tigers have won the conference six straight years and have reached the College Football Playoff in each of those seasons. But when the betting lines came out for the college football Week 8 slate of games, the Tigers found themselves in an unusual place: as an underdog. To whom, exactly? To No. 23 Pitt, a team they demolished in 2018 and 2020 in the two most recent matchups. The opening line had the Panthers favored by three points....

General consensus on Halo Infinite is that its multiplayer is mechanically fantastic with poor monetization and progression, and the single-player has similarly fantastic play with a weaker story and an emptier open world. While there are problems there, no one can deny the fantastic gameplay, and while it may not be a narrative darling, a recent clip shows that Halo Infinite may have potential as a speedrunner playground.

Epic’s history includes some of the most well known multiplayer first-person shooters of the past two decades, but Bulletstorm is aiming for a different kind of gaming experience. According to the interview, Bulletstorm started off as an entirely different beast, and only once the guns started to take on a life of their own, and the points system came into place, did the shooter really take off.
