Sean Dyche achieved in his first game what predecessor Ange Postecoglou couldn’t in eight matches in charge: win. Under its new coach, Nottingham Forest presented a concentrated display resulting in a 2-0 victory over Porto in the Europa League on Thursday. It was the first victory for Nottingham in the competition and only the second overall this season, while Porto was defeated for the first time this term. Morgan Gibbs-White converted from the penalty spot in the 19th minute at the City Ground. Igor Jesus doubled the advantage from another penalty in the 77th. Former Burnley and Everton manager Dyche replaced Postecoglou, who was fired in ruthless fashion on Saturday around 20 minutes after Forest’s 3-0 home loss to Chelsea that left the team in the Premier League relegation zone. Postecoglou had been in the job for only 39 days and didn’t win any of his eight matches in charge.

Paulo Dybala reduced the deficit from the spot early in the second half. Elsewhere, Braga.
NEW YORK: NBA head coach Chauncey Billups of the Portland Trail Blazers and Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier were arrested on Thursday for alleged involvement in illegal gambling on a “mind-boggling” scale, US officials said. Billups, a former Detroit Pistons star and a member of the National Basketball Association Hall of Fame, was arrested in connection with rigged illegal poker games tied to Mafia crime families, FBI Director Kash Patel said. Rozier and a former NBA player and assistant coach, Damon Jones, were among six people arrested in a sports betting case, Patel said at a press conference in New York. “The fraud is mind boggling,” Patel said. “It’s not hundreds of dollars, it’s not 1000s of dollars, it’s not 10s of 1000s of dollars. It’s not even millions of dollars. “We’re talking about 10s of millions of dollars in fraud and theft and robbery across a multi-year investigation.”
As a boy, I dreamed of playing cricket for my county and my country. Obviously, I was not the only one. Very few made it to the top. The financial rewards at the time were slim but the status counted for something. The pathways to the top were random.
