RIYADH: It has been an exciting year, internationally, for WWE, according to two-time WWE Champion Drew McIntyre. Speaking during an appearance on the Mayman Show for Arab News, the wrestler said that as long as there is an appetite among fans for WWE in any part of the world, it will be there.
LUXEMBOURG: The European Court of Justice’s top legal adviser said Thursday that football governing bodies UEFA and FIFA had acted within the law when they threatened to expel clubs or players who joined a proposed Super League. The opinion of Advocate General Athanasios Rantos is not binding on the court, which is examining a complaint from the firm that planned to start the new league, but it will be influential and taken as a sign of the direction the case is taking.
DOHA : Concerns were raised about France's alleged lack of strength in depth after the 1-0 defeat by Tunisia in the holders' last group game but Wednesday's 2-0 win over Morocco eased the doubts as Les Bleus reached their second World Cup final in a row.
Dietmar Hamann says Morocco "brought the human side" back to the World Cup after their remarkable journey in the tournament was ended by France on Wednesday night.
DOHA: The inspirational leadership of Didier Deschamps and a deep pool of talent have turned France into the most formidable force in international football as they prepare to face Argentina in Sunday’s World Cup final. France arrived in Qatar aiming to defy the fate of many recent holders, even as a flood of injuries threatened to derail their title defense. The reigning champions had been knocked out in the group stage in four of the past five tournaments, including France themselves in 2002. But Deschamps’ side have, in his own words, “reversed the trend” and after beating Morocco 2-0 in the last four on Wednesday, they have the chance to make history in the final at Lusail Stadium. No team have retained the trophy since Brazil in 1962, while no reigning champions had even made the final since the Brazilians in 1998. That team lost in Paris to a France side captained by Deschamps, who has been there for almost all of his country’s finest moments at major tournaments over a generation. After leading them to glory four years ago, he can become the first coach to win two World Cups since Italy’s Vittorio Pozzo in the 1930s. “Deschamps has been to three finals now, and he wins them,” French President Emmanuel Macron said after making a flying visit to Qatar for the semifinal. “Things always come in threes. Didier Deschamps brings luck as well as talent, so we are going to win it and bring the trophy home.”
