Writing on sports
Such a high tension match it was between Chelsea and Arsenal. This matchup offered a great fight tonight as it usually does.

As there was a number of hispanophone players on the pitch, we witnessed many disputes in Spanish several times. LOL

Many positives for both teams tonight.
A fiery affair between Chelsea and Arsenal ends in a draw.

Headers from Trevoh Chalobah and Mikel Merino mean it is a point apiece, despite the Premier League leaders’ player advantage following Moises Caicedo’s red card.

Mikal Bridges is quietly having a very good season with New York Knicks. He can score when Brunson is on the bench and engage in other things when he checks in.
Brilliant sequence from Mikal Bridges.

Sprints out from the paint to close out and deny a 3PT attempt.

Then blocks the shot in the paint and tips the ball to JB.

Then sprints down the floor for the layup (great feed from TK)

That’s sick.

Lando Norris is still carrying a big advantage for the championship but Piastri and Verstappen got really close right now.

Norris has no tolerance for an error.
BREAKING: Both McLaren cars of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri have been disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix

This is because the thickness of the rearmost skid of both cars was less than the required thickness

Now, it’s plausible to say that Derik Queen will be the face of the franchise no matter Zion Williamson stays or leaves.

He is on the right way and following the footsteps of Jokic and Sengun.

Look at his footwork, soft hands and game vision.
I once again say the drives from Derik Queen.

Dallas Mavericks shouldn’t have been passionate about this season anyway. They had absolutely no championship window although the front office believed the complete opposite.

Now, it seems like they must tank and hope to get one of the first three spot in the 2026 NBA draft.
The pressure that Flagg will confront is going to be huge after Luka trade.

Nonetheless, Mavs hit the lottery and supposedly got their centrepiece for the next 15 years.

Mavs should tank hard next year in order to be competitive with current roster, next year pick and Irving in 2026-27 season.
The Dallas Mavericks have won the right to select Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 pick.

But the surprising NBA Draft order impacts the other lottery teams immensely.

Trae Young to Houston Rockets

Rockets are trading away Fred VanVleet and Tari Eason while receiving Trae Young.

It would be a real blockbuster trade.

I am feeling it right now.

I can’t see the explanation why Higgins has lost so many finals for 10 years.

He’d been a serial winner during the late 1990s and 2000s. I think that the Scottish is struggling in the mental part of the game whereas it was his strongest side throughout the golden period of his glamorous career.

Wu Yize is a ranking event champion!

The 22-year-old from China defeats John Higgins 10-6 to win the 2025 International Championship title on home soil.

Wu pockets the £175,000 top prize and moves into the world's top 16 for the first time.

Crazy ending in TOT-MUN game.

Somehow, both team can’t manage to win this game as usual.

Considering how these teams struggle and mess things up, it was the perfect scenario.
What a finish at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Richarlison thought he'd won it for Spurs against Manchester United in stoppage time, only for Matthijs de Ligt to head in an even later equaliser.

It ends 2-2 and that's five without defeat for Manchester United.

Red and White army deliver once again in Euroleague this week.

First, Crvena Zvezda dominates Panathinaikos in the home game.

Then, Olympiacos beats longtime rival Obradovic and Partizan.

Everything is going well for Olympiacos-Red Star brotherhood.

That’s incredible.

Emotional moments in Northern Ireland.

Such a big talent has now won his maiden trophy in his career. He already deserved it.

What a big relief it must be for Jack Lisowski.

Better late than never for sure.

Verstappen is driving like me playing F1 video game. He’s terrorising everyone right now.

Full throttle, full contact and no fear.

Crazy drive as always.

I love the idea of the mid-table teams in Premier League. They land big, physically strong strikers. Once these guys find the connection with the team, they elevate the game level.

Igor Thiago is the perfect answer in this category. He creates space for others, is effective in air and scores a lot.

Before the season, it seemed like Brentford lost altitude with the departure of the manager and the players.

However, it looked like they chose the right successor of Thomas Frank and created a wonderful trio consisting of Thiago, Ouattara and Schade. This trio is a great fit for the game plan.

Aaron Gordon: From wasted superstar candidate to solid championship player.

What a good choice leading to save his career.

10 3PM in the season opener against GSW.

I was really disgusted with Jarrett Allen’s performance tonight.

So poor, So passive in Madison Square Garden.

Leclerc is giving everything to defend his position against Norris but it will not last forever. Hamilton must close the gap and threaten Norris.

Piastri is also struggling. Norris must be extremely eager to take the maximum.

Cody Gakpo seems so sharp in the box. It still makes him so underrated.

Bonny is such a good prospect for Inter. He has a bigger bag than Thuram and can cut him in the near future. It would be a clean upgrade.
GOAL! 6' — A. Bonny scores for Inter. AS Roma 0–1 Inter. Assist: N. Barella. Serie A

After all the controversies, BC Dubai had a great start in the new Euroleague season. It seems like they found the right chemistry on the pitch. Along with the return of the injuries, they could even be better and secure the playoff spot in the finale.

I love the Kabengele-Petrusev duo by the way.
