Messi happy to be part of Barca rotation The Brazil international was in superb form at Camp Nou on Saturday, setting up Paco Alcacer for the opening goal during a match in which he gave full-back Oscar de Marcos a torrid time. Neymar has incurred the wrath of Athletic players in the past for perceived showboating, and Mestre caused something of a storm prior to the match when he told BeIn Sports that the forward “often provokes defenders and other rival players and that’s why he gets fouled a lot”....

During a meeting Tuesday between Lukashenko and the Belarusian security council, the Belarusian president, a longtime and close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, was seen addressing the council in a clip shared on Twitter by Belarusian journalist Tadeusz Gizcan.

And this was after the Indian had led 11-7 at the mid-game interval. But just like she had done in all her matches since her return to the circuit, the 26-year-old managed to stretch this second round contest to a decider. At the beginning of the second game, Nehwal looked unstoppable. From 0-3 down, she bagged 11 points in a row to go up 11-3 at the lemon break. Even though Ayustine was able to cut down the big lead to just a four-point gap at 10-14, Saina succeeded in keeping her surging opponent at bay by taking the second game 21-18....

Days on from Saturday’s stalemate against West Brom, United appeared set to draw another frustrating blank at Old Trafford after Phil Jagielka put the visitors in front midway through the first half. But Luke Shaw – much maligned by his manager – fired in a stoppage-time shot that a sprawling Ashley Williams handled on the line to be sent off before Zlatan Ibrahimovic converted from the spot. By that stage, Everton appeared to have seen off an aerial bombardment – with former Goodison Park favourite Marouane Fellaini to the fore – and Mourinho was frank about the reasons for United’s change of style during the second period....
