Liverpool arrived at the Emirates on the back off a dominant victory over Chelsea, but they left with their tails in between their legs. The Premier League leaders were no match for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal, who roared their way to a well-deserved 3-1 victory that saw Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard all find the back of the net. It wasn't perfect from Arsenal, however, with Gabriel Magalhaes the scorer of a comical own goal late in the first half, but none of the fans in attendance will care about that at this point. A huge win. Here's how the Gunners fared in 90min 's player ratings. Arsenal's best player vs Liverpool Jorginho - 8/10 Dominant from Jorginho / Shaun Botterill/GettyImages Jorginho had started just four Premier League Game s before this one but was thrust into the limelight here. Was it tactical? Or perhaps a consequence of Kai Havertz being needed in attack to fill in for the injured Gabriel Jesus? Either way, it was a masterstrok...

Professional Tennis player s are paid according to their performance in a tournament . Before a Tennis tournament starts, the organization establishes the prize money breakdown (how much the champion, runner-up, semi-finalists, etc., will make). Players are compensated according to what round they lose. Generally, the pros get paid via 6 different income sources: tournament prize money, tournament appearance fees, endorsement deals, sponsorships, exhibition fees, bonuses, and club tennis deals. We should also say that it would be naïve to believe that a player’s ranking, nationality, and marketability don’t affect how much they can earn from the aforementioned sources. So, if you’re not Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, or Novak Djokovic, how much money are we talking about? Pro-life starts with ITF Futures Tour First and foremost, it’s important to understand that earnings depend entirely on your playing level. For example, the first bracket at which professionals start to earn mo...

Real Madrid’s injury crisis has to be seen to be believed, with Luka Modric, Eduardo Camavinga, Aurélien Tchouaméni and Vinícius Júnior among eight first-team player s ruled out of Wednesday’s Champions League home Game against Napoli. Their absences have, however, opened the door for a new face, but one that has a more than familiar name - Zidane . Real Madrid - Napoli: Follow the live action here! Zinedine , the “original” Zidane, is, of course, a club legend following his time at the Bernabéu as both player and manager. On the field, he played over 230 Game s and scored 49 goals, with his iconic UCL final goal against Bayer Leverkusen giving Los Blancos their ninth European title. In the dugout, he had even greater success, leading the LaLiga giants to two league titles and their 11th, 12th and 13th Champions League triumphs.

"You can't win anything with kids" is one of football's most famous phrases. Coined by Alan Hansen back in the 1990s, it has firmly established itself in the sport's vernacular over the years. While Hansen would come to regret those words as a youthful Manchester United team proved their doubters wrong and conquered English Football , there is an element of truth in what the former Liverpool defender said. Experience is needed to be successful at the highest level, along with a variety of age ranges capable of providing different skills. However, in the FIFA and Football Manager generation, teams are getting increasingly youthful. Just look at Chelsea's transfer strategy of only signing players under the age of 23 on massive seven-year contracts - perhaps one of the reasons they are finding life hard in 2023/24 so far. The Premier League table based on youngest average lineup age Champions of the Premier League youth table are Burnley , with Vincent Kompany ...

University athletic departments and college conferences use independent sports-betting monitoring services to make sure athletes and staff do not bet on sports LAS VEGAS -- North Carolina junior tight end John Copenhaver gets a group text message from his university pointing out the latest betting scandal or reminding him of the importance of not violating rules against betting on sports. “It’s being put in our heads every single day," he said. Schools feel they have no choice. The spread of legalized sports gambling — and some early scandals — have captured the full attention of athletic departments and conference offices. All major conferences are paying independent betting monitors to make sure their athletes abide by the rules — and to catch those who are not. All of this means the personal information surrendered by athletes — birthdays, addresses, Social Security numbers, cellphone numbers — is used in a way unlike the same information shared by their fellow students. Some c...

The NBA and the NBPA agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement early Saturday morning, but that doesn't mean that the entire player 's union is thrilled with the agreement. Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green took exception to the new clauses in the collective bargaining agreement meant to curb spending among top teams while encouraging spending in smaller markets. "Players lose again…. Smh! Middle and Lower spectrum teams don't spend because they don't want to," Green tweeted. "They want to lose. So increase their spending capabilities, just to increase them. They continue to cut out the middle. And this is what we rushed into a deal for? Smdh! Never fails."  This is hardly a new occurrence in Green's eyes, either. "Never seen someone go to a table with the assets that makes an entire machine go, and lose EVERY time! Blasphemous," Green tweeted. He...
