You are listening to the Expresso Sports Update. Here is the latest news from the world of 22bet deposit mpesan and International Sports brought to you by 10cric offers.
“Let’s begin this bulletin with some football news,
Atlético Madrid secured a Champions League spot for the 10th straight season after defeating Elche 2-0 in the Spanish league.
The victory on Wednesday moved Diego Simeone’s team into third place, one point ahead of Sevilla, which earlier missed its own chance to guarantee a berth in Europe’s top club competition next season after a scoreless home draw against relegation-threatened Mallorca (Maayorca).
Matheus Cunha and Rodrigo De Paul scored a goal in each half to leave Atlético six points in front of fifth-place Real Betis with two rounds to go. Betis, which won 3-0 at Valencia on Tuesday, can’t surpass Atlético for the final qualification spot because it loses on the head-to-head tiebreaker.”
“The Ukrainian men’s national team returned to action Wednesday for the first time since the invasion by Russia, beating German club Borussia Mönchengladbach 2-1 in a charity fundraiser.
The friendly was a chance for the Ukrainians to get back into form ahead of a World Cup qualifying playoff game against Scotland next month, but also to show their team is still going.
Coach Oleksandr Petrakov said when the Ukrainian anthem was sung before the game, “I had tears in my eyes. Thank you to the Ukrainians who came and supported us, and thank you to the Germans.”
If Ukraine beat Scotland in the playoff on June 1, they will face Wales for a place at this year’s World Cup in Qatar.”
“In some hockey news,
Penalty corners have showcased thrilling action sequences on a hockey field, from the cannonball-like shots hurled by drag-flickers and “suicide runs” from defenders to block them to the goalkeepers diving and lunging to keep the ball out.
But now, the future of one of hockey’s most integral elements is being reconsidered, at least in its current avatar. The reason? Rising risk of injuries and a diminishing success rate.
Although there will be no rule change until after the Paris Olympics in 2024, the International Hockey Federation has told national federations: “We must consider making changes to the penalty corner rules BEFORE serious or fatal incidents occur and not wait to react until afterward.””
“Now, in some tennis news,
Four-time grand slam winner Naomi Osaka is breaking away from IMG to launch her own sports agency with longtime agent Stuart Duguid.
Duguid and Osaka began discussing the venture at the Tokyo Olympics last year, Duguid told Reuters via email, adding that the firm, called Evolve, will operate as a “small boutique and bespoke agency.”
He said, “We were discussing the business models of some of her mentors like Kobe Bryant and Lebron James. We thought – why has no transcendent female athlete done that yet,” It’s athlete-driven and focused on big picture brand building rather than quick checks with a commission attached.”
”
“Meanwhile,
Elina Svitolina can vividly recall her struggles as an anxious young player on the international tennis circuit and is now campaigning for better mental health protection for juniors starting out in their careers.
Svitolina, a 27-year-old Ukrainian player, told The Associated Press in an interview on Wednesday, that she welcomes the idea of psychologists being readily available for juniors on the tennis circuit.
She said, “I had tough moments in my career at a young age. You travel alone, just with your coach. When you are travelling so many weeks every year, it can be a big challenge,”
“You’re losing pretty much every single week, so this is mentally really tough to handle.” ”
“Moving on,
22bet deposit mpesan golfer Diksha Dagar outplayed American Ashlyn Grace in the final to bag gold medal at the Deaflympics, fulfilling her promise of improving upon the silver-winning performance at the 2017 edition. Diksha is now the only golfer with two Deaflympics medals – a silver in Samsun, Turkey in 2017 and gold in 2022, which is actually the 2021 edition of Deaflympics.
The 21-year-old left-hander, who is a professional with victories on the Ladies European Tour, completed a dominant performance with a 5 and 4 win in the final of the match play section of the ladies golf competition. She beat Grace Johnson with four holes to spare In 2017, when golf was first introduced at the Deaflympics, .”
“Moving on, in some cricket news,
The 22bet deposit mpesan Premier League franchise Kolkata Knight Riders will now have a sister franchise in UAE’s flagship T20 league as the Knight Riders Group has acquired the rights to own and operate the Abu Dhabi franchise. The UAE’s T20 League is Emirates Cricket Board’s sanctioned, flagship professional T20 League.
The Knight Riders group, which is led by Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan with Juhi Chawla and her husband Jay Mehta as co-owners, has already acquired Trinbago Knight Riders in the Caribbean Premier League , made investments in Major League Cricket in the USA and has shown interest to set up a franchise in the greater Los Angeles area.”
“Meanwhile,
An offence has been registered against the captain of Chhattisgarh’s Ranji Trophy team, Harpreet Singh Bhatia, for allegedly getting a job in the office of principal accountant general audit in Raipur by submitting bogus documents, police said on Thursday.
An official said, that after preliminary verification of the attested documents submitted by the cricketer, he was called for field trials and based on his performance, Bhatia was selected in the probable list of candidates.
The cricketer had submitted a BCom degree certificate from Bundelkhand University Jhansi, and to verify the authenticity of the degree, the department had contacted the university and learnt that no such marksheet had been issued.”
“And finally,
Tottenham revived their hopes of beating Arsenal to the final Champions League qualification position by overwhelming their fierce north London rival in a 3-0 win in the Premier League.
Harry Kane scored twice, and Son Heung-min added the other just after halftime on Thursday to move Tottenham one point behind fourth-place Arsenal, which had center back Rob Holding sent off in the 33rd when the score was 1-0.
There are two games remaining for each team and fifth-place Tottenham’s finish to the season looks easier than Arsenal’s. While Spurs face two of the bottom four in Burnley and already-relegated Norwich, Arsenal must travel to Newcastle before a home game against a resurgent Everton.”
