Inter Milan have top spot in Serie A in their sights as the Italian champions head to Turin on Sunday to take on fierce rivals Juventus just one point behind league leaders Napoli. Monday night's win over Fiorentina put Inter right on Napoli's heels as an intriguing Scudetto battle hots up with the pair facing off in Naples in two weeks' time. But this weekend's fixtures could also have a big say in the destination of the Scudetto as Napoli have a tough trip to fourth-placed Lazio to deal with on Saturday.
Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar blasted England batter Tom Banton for wasting a review in the third and final ODI on Wednesday. Spinner Kuldeep Yadav outfoxed Banton with a flighted wrong'un delivery. As Banton went forward to defend, the ball turned away and seemed to have trickled the bat on its way to the keeper KL Rahul. After a loud appeal for caught behind, the umpire raised his fingers. However, Banton wasn't sure if he had nicked it, and consulted Root over the same.
Vincent Kompany saluted Bayern Munich's composure and ignored the "crazy" atmosphere at Celtic to seize control of the Champions League play-off round with a 2-1 win in the first leg on Wednesday. Bayern boss Kompany was concerned about the potential for Celtic to be fuelled by the raucous 60,000 sell-out crowd in Glasgow. But the Bundesliga leaders produced a mature display that took the sting out of the Celtic roar for long periods. Michael Olise's thunderous drive into the roof of the net from 15 yards put Bayern ahead on the stroke of half-time.
Vangelis Pavlidis scored his sixth goal in this season's Champions League to give Benfica a 1-0 win away to 10-man Monaco in the first leg of their knockout phase play-off tie on Wednesday. Pavlidis scored the only goal of the game three minutes into the second half in the principality, with Monaco handicapped in their comeback attempts as midfielder Moatasem al-Musrati was sent off shortly after. Benfica, twice winners of the European Cup in the 1960s, will now hope to finish the job in the return leg in Lisbon next Tuesday, February 18.
Harry Kane was on target as Bayern Munich beat Celtic 2-1 in Glasgow in the first leg of their Champions League play-off on Wednesday, while there were also wins for Benfica, Feyenoord and Club Brugge. Bayern are hoping to go all the way to this season's final, which will be played at their own Allianz Arena in Munich on May 31. They threatened to run riot against the Scottish champions at Celtic Park as they dominated the first half and took the lead just before the interval thanks to a superb Michael Olise strike.
India star batter Virat Kohli and England all-rounder Liam Livingstone were involved in a hilarious banter during third ODI at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. It happened after the England player tried to tease Kohli over a DRS reprieve that the latter received at the time of his batting. While trying to play an Adil Rashid delivery in the 15th over of India's innings, Kohli missed the ball and got hit on the back foot. The England players appealed for an LBW but umpire was unconvinced. The visitors decided to go upstairs only to find out that the ball was marginally pitched outside the leg stump.
The England cricket team suffered a 3-0 ODI series sweep at the hands of India. The Rohit Sharma-led side had already sealed the series in Cuttak and it registered a whitewash with a one-sided victory in the final game in Ahmedabad on Wednesday. While the England cricket team was under scrutiny during the tour for its poor performance, the final match was no expection. As the visiting batters struggled against Indian bowlers during the game, former India batting all-rounder Ravi Shastri, who is now a commentator, lashed out at the visiting team. He pointed out that the England players didn't have enough practice sessions.
