Former England captain Beckham was in attendance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as Spurs routed Crystal Palace 4-0 on Saturday. Pochettino gave away the penalty that Beckham converted during England’s 1-0 win over Argentina at the 2002 World Cup, four years on from his infamous sending off against the same opponents at France ‘98.

To detect patterns of brain activity, a subject must agree to lie still in a neuroimaging device such as a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) tube, but in an age when many jurisdictions compel not only convicts but also suspects to provide a DNA sample, that isn’t difficult to imagine. Now, neither is the prospect of reading thoughts by decoding brain-activity patterns.

In the island’s offseason, 63% of its homes, whose median value is $1.35 million, are vacant. Former President Barack Obama’s property alone reportedly has 10 bedrooms.

Sport is full of paradoxes, as crass and class inexplicably coexist. For every Bobby Charlton and Paulo Madlini, there was a George Best and Paul Gascoigne. Even now for every Steven Gerrard and Xavi, there are the likes of Mario Balotelli and Luis Suarez. All of them quality professionals but the latter lot arguably lacking in professionalism. Let’s take Luis Suarez for instance. Skillful, agile and even good in the air for a small man, yet there is a huge divide in opinion among the public....

After reaching the finals of UEFA Nations League, Ronald Koeman’s men have done well in the UEFA Euro 2020 qualifiers. Oranje has amassed nine points in four games so far, and they have scored 14 times in the process. On Sunday (October 13), they will be taking on Belarus at the Borisov Arena in Barysaw.

When talking about what sort of reactions he has received from his former colleagues in WWE, it became abundantly clear that Swagger has no bad blood with the roster. In fact, one member of the roster would also be accompanying him out during his fight at Bellator MMA 214 and would actually play a big part on the night.

In an interview with MMA Fighting, the Pitbull has revealed that he apparently handpicked Archuleta as his first opponent. He said that he was initially set to face Henry Corrales but he was not keen on fighting someone he has already beaten in the past. Who deserves to face the Pitbull? He also stated that A.J.

For the Olympic Games, this is the tone setter, the big, prime-time glamour event on the first full day of competition next Sunday. It is thrilling, it is beautiful and, in a word, dangerous. Your typical sports cliche -sudden death-is rather a different matter in the downhill. Two weeks ago Ulrike Maier, 26, a two-time World Cup champion and, more important, the mother of a 4-year-old daughter, swerved on the downhill course at Garmisch, Germany, crashed into a straw-padded timing post and broke her neck....
