Messi’s Inter Miami to face Ronaldo’s Al Nassr in Saudi event
MIAMI, USA: Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami will face Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr next February in the Riyadh Season Cup for what could be the final showdown of the global football icons. Eight-time Ballon d’Or winner Messi, who joined the US squad in July and sparked a championship run in the Leagues Cup against US and Mexican clubs, is expected to meet Ronaldo, a five-time Ballon d’Or winner. Messi, 36, led Argentina to last year’s World Cup crown and has long been a rival of Portugal captain Ronaldo, 38. Inter Miami was named the guest international side and will join Saudi Pro League sides Al-Hilal and Al Nassr in next February’s Riyadh Season Cup, but no exact dates for matches at Kingdom Arena in the round-robin competition were announced. Miami also features Messi’s former Barcelona teammates Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets who combined for five La Liga crowns. Ronaldo, a five-time Champions League winner, is joined by former Liverpool standout Sadio Mane and former Inter Milan captain Marcelo Brozovic on Al Nassr. Al-Hilal features Brazil all-time leading scorer Neymar, who is recovering from a knee injury. Last January, Ronaldo made his first appearance in Saudi Arabia following his move to Al Nassr with a Riyadh All-Star XI that lost 5-4 to a Paris Saint-Germain side featuring Messi, Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Sergio Ramos.

Judging biggest overreactions for NFL Week 11 - ESPN
December is right around the corner, which means so is whatever target date injured Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has in mind for his miracle return from his September Achilles injury. We still don't know whether such a thing is possible or if it will come to pass, but we're getting close to the time when we might find out.
Jeff Brohm leads Louisville to ACC title game in first season - ESPN
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — After the final seconds ticked off the clock in a down-to-the-wire 38-31 win over Miami on Saturday, jubilant Louisville players ran onto the field and started screaming, 'First year! We're going to that 'ship!' Near midfield, coach Jeff Brohm finished up a television interview — his daughter by his side — and then got a hug from his beaming dad, Oscar.
Scott Van Pelt's 'Winners' for Week 12 college football games - ESPN
I have a dear friend at NBC Sports named Steve Sands who preaches the importance of keeping your poise. I apologize to him and to you — because I lost mine in the wee hours as I wrote down «Winners.» There are 10. Which is ludicrous. Far too many games. Can you trust someone seriously who dabbles in such unserious behavior — particularly when we went 4-5 last week? And are 3 under .500? But if we go on a heater — starting with these 10 — then who's gonna have a Happy Thanksgiving? WE ARE! So let's do that. OK? All right.
Hungary qualify for Euro 2024 after clinching draw
PARIS: Hungary qualified for Euro 2024 when a Bulgarian own goal late in stoppage time gave them a 2-2 draw in Sofia on Thursday. The Hungarians needed a single point to clinch their ticket to the finals in Germany but were trailing 2-1 before Alex Petkov headed into his own net in the 97th minute. The Hungarian players exploded in joy at the end of a match played in an empty stadium because of fears of violence. However Bulgarian fans protesting against their own football federation clashed with police outside the ground. The draw gave Hungary 15 points from seven games in Group G of European qualifying, two ahead of Serbia. The Hungarians join host nation Germany, Austria, Belgium, England, France, Portugal, Scotland, Spain and Turkiye as the teams qualified so far for next year’s finals. Hungary, whose play was largely directed by Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai, took the lead in the 10th minute through Martin Adam but Spas Delev pulled Bulgaria level on 24 minutes. Bulgaria grabbed the advantage in a hard-fought game when Kiril Despodov placed a penalty beyond the outstretched hand of the Hungarian ‘keeper after Despodov had been fouled by Attila Szalai. But just as it seemed Hungary were slipping to defeat, the unfortunate Petkov headed a Hungarian cross into his own net.
