Having dazzled for the likes of A.C Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and Monaco, he would go on to become the first African footballer to win the FIFA World Player of the year and the Ballon d’Or in 1995. Such is the man’s legacy that he is now running for Presidential elections back home in Liberia.

The match started with some quick baskets by Haryana; they were obviously dominating the Challengers at a score of 15-3 in the first 5 minutes. Then, waking up from their slumber, Mumbai picked up their pace and scored multiple baskets to look alive. The first quarter ended at 16-24 in Haryana’s favour. The remaining match was more of the same. Haryana Gold easily dominated the proceedings; it was a cakewalk to the finish line with a huge score difference....

On Thursday, a pairing was announced between Uber and NYC’s Taxi & Limousine Commission (TLC) that, according to CBS, will give the city’s thousands of drivers access to more potential customers. However, the head of a union representing taxi drivers in the city has questions about it will affect the drivers.

The industry and cultural shift to the current consoles is inevitable, but as long as the big, triple-A games launch with versions across both new and old systems, the change is only being delayed. However, some companies are coming around, and have decided to make the move more subtle, in that only some of their games will be left to keep the previous generation going. Take Ubisoft, for example, which has a few of the biggest games out there....

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2V49Ucskng&feature=player_embedded Awesome! I’m taking that trailer, and it’s slavish attention to recreating the original game, as conformation of an important fact: namely, that Ubisoft understands that the first Driver is the only good Driver. The importance of that point can not be overstated. Every other game in the series has been at best a disappointment, and at worst, a tragedy. The legacy of subpar (and outright awful) sequels to Driver has robbed a brilliant game of its rightful place in history....

Jerome Adams told Fox News that he believed most people around the country were following instructions to stay at home if possible and struck a relatively optimistic tone that the number of hospitalizations was starting “to level off.” “I’m heartened by the people around the country who are doing the right thing,” he told anchor Laura Ingraham. “But we’re still seeing far too many pictures of people out there doing the wrong things....

America passed the grim milestone of 600,000 deaths on Tuesday, according to Johns Hopkins University’s tracker—more than any other nation. The reported figure stands at 600,272 at the time of writing. The country has faced more than 33 million cases—again, the highest of any nation. Wyoming’s resident population as of 2020 was 576,851, according to figures from the United States Census Bureau. Matt Ford, a staff writer at The New Republic, noted the comparison on Twitter, writing: “Hard to wrap one’s head around the scale of loss here....

On Thursday figures from the Commerce Department revealed the U.S. economy has shrunk in two consecutive quarters, the standard definition of a recession. America’s GDP, which measures all the goods and services the country produces, dropped by an annualized rate of 0.9 percent in the second quarter following a 1.6 percent drop in the first three months of 2022. Figures compiled by Trading Economics show that the U.S. one of the worst performing major economies, with seven of its rivals doing better from April-June of this year....

The U.S. is investing billions of dollars into research and development of hypersonic weapons, the high speed and maneuverability of which can defeat existing anti-air and anti-missile systems. Russia and China have already fielded hypersonic weapons, raising concerns that the U.S. is lagging behind. The GAO report published Monday warned that the current U.S. research approach risks “impeding its progress” and urged the Pentagon to review the leadership positions and organizations of its ongoing programs....

Koepka matched his first round of 69 at Pebble Beach on Friday to head into the weekend in a promising position on 4 under. Rose led by two shots at 7 under when he signed for a 1-under 70. World No. 1 Koepka was pleased to keep himself in the mix for a fifth major title after getting through his round with only one bogey, becoming the first defending champion to break 70 in his first two rounds of the U....

Tennis has regularly been compared to boxing, with Andy Murray among those to draw that particular parallel. In the world of the sweet science, they say styles make fights, and there could hardly have been a greater contrast of approaches on show at Arthur Ashe Stadium on Wednesday. The world’s biggest tennis stadium bore witness to a classic between Roger Federer and Grigor Dimitrov on Tuesday and another followed in short order as power puncher Berrettini outgunned Monfils, who, in typically flamboyant fashion, ducked and weaved his way to a fifth-set tiebreak, saving four match points, only to fall short under the weight of the relentless blows coming from the Italian....

Making his first start since the BMW Championship late last month, the 15-time major winner will begin the tournament from tee No. 1 at 8:07 a.m. ET on Thursday. A three-time U.S. Open winner, Woods doesn’t have particularly fond memories of Winged Foot, where he finished 29th at the PGA Championship in 1997 and then missed the cut at the U.S. Open in 2006—one of only three occasions Woods didn’t feature in the final two days at the tournament....

The Serbs and Croats refuse to let anything but food and medicine in to the beleaguered Muslims. Pentagon planners have rejected using military force to clear the roadblocks. Instead, they are focusing on increasing the airlift operation into Sarajevo–and perhaps opening up the Tuzla airfield as a second supply point. They are also considering increasing the number of airdrops flown nightly out of Germany’s RheinMain air base. The plans pose a number of problems for Clinton’s team....

The decision is based on an independent review that was released last month conducted by Air Force Lieutenant General Sami Said, inspector general for the Air Force, considered independent because he had no connection to the decision. Said’s report said that while there were errors in communication and the process of identifying the car that was the target of the bombing, the cause could not be directly attributed to misconduct or negligence, and was more likely to be a tragic mistake than anything else....

Minutes earlier, Iran had given Guinea the first scare when Esmaeil Zadeh Amir’s free-kick from an acute angle tested Sylla Ibrahima in his goal. Toure had another glorious opportunity around the half hour mark but saw his firmly struck left footer from inside the box thwarted out by Iranian goalkeeper Gholam Zadeh Ali. Sayyad eventually put Iran in the driver’s seat in the second half as he got on a loose ball at the edge of the box and drilled it into the top left corner in the 59th minute....
