MIAMI, July 1 : By any measure, Cape Verde should have next to no chance of knocking Argentina and Lionel Messi out of the World Cup on Friday, but the Africans have huge confidence in their ability to defy the odds and keep their fairytale debut campaign alive.
LAUSANNE: Greenland and the Faroe Islands will not be recognized as separate and independent Olympic teams despite a request from Denmark’s parliament, the IOC said Wednesday. The Olympic Charter has for 30 years defined a country that can have an official team as “an independent state recognized by the international community.” Greenland and the Faroe Islands — which are semi-autonomous territories in the kingdom of Denmark — do not meet that standard, the International Olympic Committee said in a statement. “This position has been explained and communicated very clearly to the concerned parties on numerous occasions over the past years,” the IOC said. The formal request by the Danish parliament was made two weeks ago and published Tuesday. It came weeks after Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen formed a new coalition government. In the election campaign, she pledged support for Greenland against US President Donald Trump’s wish to acquire the island. At the 2028 Los Angeles Summer Games, which President Trump should formally declare open, athletes from Greenland and Faroes can compete for Denmark.
LONDON, July 1 : There is no doubting that "Rocky" fan Aryna Sabalenka has an "Eye of the Tiger" as she demonstrated on Wednesday when her survival instincts kicked in to subdue American McCartney Kessler 6-1 7-6(9) in a compelling second round tussle at Wimbledon.
BOSTON, Massachusetts, July 1 : Four-time world champions Germany provided the biggest shock when they crashed out of the World Cup in the first knockout stage, leading a string of former football powers who tumbled out early, as a new world order is established in the sport.
The 2026 World Cup has entered the knockout round of play. From here on out, it's either win or go home. Since the United States won their group (despite losing 3-2 to Türkiye, who were eliminated), they get to face a third-place team in the Round of 32. That team is the side from Bosnia-Herzegovina, who finished behind both Switzerland and Canada in Group B.
ATLANTA — There is considerable buzz here in the U.S. around the United States men's national team. Celebrities pack their matches out — the cameras picked out Ed Norton, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Paris Hilton, Jessica Alba and Will Ferrell at their last match — and it feels like the spotlight is growing ever brighter on the USMNT with every passing match.
The Ottawa Senators re-signed Nick Cousins to a two-year contract worth $3.175 million US Wednesday morning, keeping the veteran forward off the free-agent market.
TORONTO: Portugal and Croatia’s World Cup last-32 clash on Thursday could be Cristiano Ronaldo or Luka Modric’s final game on soccer’s biggest stage, and the massive moment will unfold at the tournament’s smallest venue. If there was any skepticism about how the 43,036-seat Toronto Stadium would hold up against its much bigger counterparts in the US and Mexico, that was squashed by electric atmospheres, sellout crowds and special moments in the five group matches it hosted. Toronto Stadium is not the grandest venue, but what it lacks in size it makes up for by bringing fans closer to the action and players, with few bad seats in the house. Before hosting World Cup matches, the home of Major League Soccer’s Toronto FC underwent a C$158 million ($111.4 million) facelift to bring its capacity up to tournament standards, and those temporary changes are paying off. Soccer fan James Cuthbert said the venue did not feel like a World Cup stadium in March when Canada played Iceland in a friendly as it was still being renovated. But when he returned for Senegal and Iraq’s group match last Friday, he was impressed. “It feels different, it feels more like a world-class stadium,” said Cuthbert, who also attended the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Cuthbert and his wife were sitting in the back row of a 200-level section at Toronto Stadium but were very happy with the view. “We’re (in) the very highest seats but it feels amazing,” he said.
