The Gunners made it nine wins in a row in all competitions with a 5-1 victory at Craven Cottage, in which Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette scored twice and Aaron Ramsey netted a stylish backheel. The result lifts Emery’s side into third place in the table, above Tottenham on goal difference and just a point behind leaders Manchester City ahead of their meeting with Liverpool. And Aubameyang wants them to maintain their form when they return from the international break with a game against Leicester City on October 22....

Inspired by the top-selling professional M Series studio wired headphones, the ATH-M20xBT offer the same sonic signature sound as their wired counterpart, the ATH-M20x, without the cable. And they cost under £100/$100 with change to spare. The ATH-M20xBT come with large 40mm drivers with “rare earth magnets and copper-clad aluminium wire voice coils tuned for enhanced low-frequency performance”. This should mean good bass response for all the EDM (electronic dance music) lovers....

Graham Arnold had bullishly predicted victory for the Socceroos in their Group B opener, but he said his comments shouldn’t be interpreted as lacking respect. “That’s a translation difference. It’s not arrogance, it’s belief,” he told a press conference, when the issue was raised by Jordanian media. “It’s not arrogance at all. Those words are used a lot in Australia and in Australia it’s not considered arrogant.” Anas Bani-Yaseen’s first-half header proved the difference as Australia made their worst start in four visits to the Asian Cup, which they won for the first time in 2015....

The star center jumped right back in the action at full speed Wednesday night. Matthews had two goals and an assist in his return to the lineup after missing 14 games with a left shoulder injury and Toronto beat the San Jose Sharks 5-3 for their third straight victory. “It kind of just eats away at you,” Matthews said about his time on the shelf. “Watching what we’ve been able to do the last month, we’ve played pretty exceptional at times....

FIFA confirmed the eight-strong shortlist for the tournament, which will be the first finals to feature 32 teams. Japan is the only former champion to register a continued interest, while Brazil — which hosted the 2014 men’s World Cup — is also on the list alongside Australia. There is further South American representation from Argentina and Colombia. New Zealand and 2010 men’s host South Africa are set to make a bid, too....

SYDNEY (Reuters) - Football Federation Australia will hold an Extraordinary General Meeting to expand its Congress ahead of the FIFA-imposed deadline of March 31 after talks with the president of soccer’s world governing body in Zurich this week. The FFA has been under pressure from FIFA to expand membership of its 10-member Congress, which has representatives of the country’s nine states and territories but just one delegate for all 10 professional A-League clubs....

The 25-year-old picked up 22 wickets, including the key scalp of Brendon McCullum in the final, at an unbelievable average of 10.18. His performance played a key role in the team claiming their fifth World title. “The senior guys have definitely got some time left in them,” Starc, the “Player of the Tournament”, was quoted as saying by cricket.com.au. Skipper Michael Clarke, who announced his One-Day-International (ODI) retirement, was one of just four players in Australia’s XI for the final against New Zealand aged over 30....

After Murali Vijay and Shikhar Dhawan got axed from the Indian Test team, Prithvi Shaw, KL Rahul, and Mayank Agarwal are the three opening alternatives for India in the two-match Test series against the Windies. However, Murali Vijay has shown great form in county cricket and looks determined to make a comeback in the Indian team. The young superstar, Prithvi Shaw, has made a grand entry in the Test arena with a quick knock of 134 runs, facing just 154 deliveries....

Ange Postecoglou’s men are favourites to advance to the second stage of the play-offs after securing a crucial away goal in their 1-1 draw against the Qasioun Eagles at the Hang Jebat Stadium in Melaka, Malaysia last week. The winner of the clash will take on either Panama or Honduras with both sides currently vying for a fourth-placed finish with one match remaining in CONCACAF qualifications.

The Georgia Republican’s eligibility to seek reelection is being legally challenged by a group of voters from her congressional district who want her removed from the ballot. The group says that Greene is an insurrectionist because of her alleged involvement in the U.S. Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. Their lawsuit argues that Greene should be barred from holding office on the basis of a Civil War-era provision in the Constitution that banned former Confederates from holding government positions....

Emery was appointed Gunners manager in May after Arsene Wenger’s 22-year spell in charge came to an end and the Spaniard could not have wished for a more comfortable first game in charge. It was Wenger’s last signing as Arsenal boss who was the star turn during a goal-laden first half on Saturday. Aubameyang, who arrived from Borussia Dortmund during the January transfer window, plundered 10 goals in 13 Premier League games towards the end of 2017-18 campaign and wasted little time picking up where he left off....

Ancelotti: Muller tactically the best The prolific striker was absent for BVB’s hard-fought 2-1 win at Werder Bremen last time out in the Bundesliga due to his AFCON duties with Gabon, with Andre Schurrle on target after taking his place up front. Gabon’s exit at the group stages means Aubameyang has returned to club duty, though, and Tuchel has seen enough in training to be convinced that the pacy forward is ready to face Mainz on Sunday....

Huff is a two-time World Series champion, winning both rings while with the San Francisco Giants. During his 13-year career in the MLB, he also played for the Tampa Bay Rays, Houston Astros, Baltimore Orioles and Detroit Tigers. He officinally announced his retirement from the sport in January 2014. Since stepping away from the field, Huff has never stayed out of the spotlight, mainly due to his inflammatory statements and controversial views he regularly shares on Twitter....

On Friday morning, the former Green Bay Packers quarterback announced on Twitter that he would be voting for Trump next week. “My Vote is for what makes this country great, freedom of speech & religion, 2nd Amnd, hard working tax paying citizens, police & military,” the three-time NFL MVP and Super Bowl XXXI winner tweeted. “In this election, we have freedom of choice, which all should respect. For me & these principles, my Vote is for @RealDonaldTrump....

In Gus Malzahn’s first season as Tigers head coach, Auburn led the country in rushing with 328.3 yards per game and was 11th overall with 501.3 yards per game. And Malzahn thinks — no, he expects — the offense to get better in 2014. And why not? For the first time since he moved from high school to college, he’ll be coaching his starting quarterback for a second season. That means Nick Marshall, who didn’t arrive on campus until last summer, will have the benefit of a full offseason and spring practice, as will his backup, Jeremy Johnson, a true freshman in 2014....

Victory would have seen Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men close the gap to leaders Bayern Munich to two points ahead of the reigning champions’ game against Koln on Saturday, but Hinteregger stopped them coming out on top in an entertaining encounter. Augsburg went a goal up in the 19th minute through Konstantinos Stafylidis, who beat goalkeeper Peter Gulacsi with a fine shot into the top-right corner to open the scoring. Their lead lasted less than six minutes, though, as Leipzig top scorer Timo Werner found the net after some good work from Naby Keita to restore parity....

In a recent interview with ONE Championship, Aung La talked about the various emotions that run through his mind before a big fight. He also brought up how it affects his ability to execute when it matters most. Aung La N Sang said: While it looks like he wants to rip an opponent to shreds by the time the cage door closes, Aung La says it’s all a balancing act and that he’s never truly disliked any of his foes....

The Socceroos began their Group D decider thinking a draw would be sufficient but with Tunisia surprisingly beating France, who had already qualified, Graham Arnold’s side required victory, as did the Danes. Denmark missed several good first-half chances to take the lead with Milos Degenek denying Jesper Lindstrom with a brilliant block and Mat Ryan saving a Mathias Jensen effort. Instead it was Australia — whose only previous appearance in the last 16 came in 2006 — who broke the deadlock on the hour, springing Leckie on the counter-attack....
