CNN —Leicester City’s Premier League triumph in 2015/16 remains one of the greatest achievements in the history of sport. With just one game left of the season, Leicester is in 18th place – the third and final relegation spot – on 31 points, two points adrift of Everton in 17th and safety. Former manager Brendan Rogers, who had been at the club since 2019, was sacked in April as Leicester made a last-ditch attempt to salvage its Premier League status by hiring Dean Smith. Of the teams facing relegation, Leicester certainly looks best placed to make an immediate return to the Premier League with some talented players and a potentially massive transfer budget from the sale of its stars. While Allardyce is known for his expertise in saving teams from relegation, his style of football could not be more different to Bielsa’s.
They decided to sell pretty much everything they ownedMaddison MiltonGetting woken up by the sun has become almost normal for Maddison Milton and her partner Kyle Markham, who live in a van with their three-year-old son Reef. Avid travelers, the couple decided to move into their Mercedes Sprinter van full-time in February, after about two years of escaping on getaways when they could. "We sold pretty much everything we owned and decided to go all in on the van," Milton told Insider. "We were just trying to figure out a way where we could keep kind of moving and keep doing what feels good for us," she added. Their plan is for them to travel all over Australia.

Manchester United maintained their top-four pursuit while at the bottom there were vital victories for Bournemouth and West Ham United.

LONDON, April 1 (Reuters) - Roy Hodgson's second stint as Crystal Palace manager began with a 2-1 Premier League win over Leicester City on Saturday, as the London side registered their first victory in 2023 thanks to a late winner from Jean-Philippe Mateta. Hodgson had been brought in to secure Palace's future in the top flight but with both teams looking likely to extend their winless runs, Jordan Ayew took matters into his hands in added time in the second half with a solo run into Leicester's half. We needed this win – for the team, for the new manager... Meanwhile, Ivorian winger and Palace's top scorer this season Wilfried Zaha was forced to limp off with a groin injury.

Kane on target again as England ease past Ukraine

Ukraine had their moments and enjoyed some pressure after the interval but never really looked capable of claiming only a second victory over England in 10 attempts. It took them a while to get going, however, as Ukraine comfortably kept the hosts at bay for most of the first half. Kane, who was presented with a golden boot beforehand, missed two routine chances, fluffing a close-range volley and then prodding an inviting Maddison delivery over. The 21-year-old has now had a hand in 10 goals in his last 16 games for England in all competitions. Their next game will be against North Macedonia in June while England are away in Malta next.
Brighton, who have not lost this year, were held to a 1-1 draw by Crystal Palace. An eight-point advantage in the table beckoned for Mikel Arteta's side but they never looked comfortable against an enterprising Brentford who should have been ahead by halftime. The visitors got their deserved point through Ivan Toney, who pounced in the 72nd minute to head in Christian Norgaard's cross. Only Harry Kane has netted more away goals in the Premier League this season than the Brentford striker. SORRY SPURSWith manager Antonio Conte back in the dugout after missing their win against Manchester City last Sunday following gallbladder surgery, Spurs made a good start at Leicester.
DOHA, Nov 30 (Reuters) - England have greater expectation than when they reached the World Cup semi-finals four years ago, manager Gareth Southgate said as he looked ahead to Sunday's last-16 clash with Senegal. Our objectives are different," Southgate, whose side have banged in nine goals in three games in Qatar, told reporters. Rashford, who was given his first England start for 18 months, took his tally to a joint tournament-leading three, while Foden justified the clamour for his inclusion with a goal in a display full of attacking threat. Kane, who remains on 51 goals for England, two behind the record of Wayne Rooney, is yet to score at the tournament as England prove they can thrive even without his goals. With no yellow cards and a fully-fit squad to choose from, Southgate has an enviable array of options as the tournament reaches its sharp end.
DOHA, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Harry Kane said he hopes to break Wayne Rooney's England scoring record "as soon as possible" as the striker prepares to lead his country into their World Cup Group B opener with Iran on Monday. Kane scored six goals in Russia in 2018 when England's run was stopped by Croatia in the semi-finals. Aged 29, he knows that this tournament might also present his best opportunity to do what no England captain has done since Bobby Moore lifted the World Cup in 1966. "I was lucky enough to play in the 2018 World Cup and had an amazing experience at a great tournament. "We know that under Carlos in the last World Cup they were very organised against big opponents and difficult to play against.
"We’ve seen in the past that (England manager) Gareth (Southgate) has brought players back if they are in form and thankfully that was me for this tournament." Maddison was in Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers’s office on the day of the squad announcement last week. He was just being a being a good manager and putting a close arm around me if I didn't get the call, taking about staying motivated and then enjoying the break. Now Maddison is relishing the World Cup experience"Every moment at the minute is almost like pinch me moment," he said. "England in recent tournaments like Russia and the Euros have been brilliant and coming back into the squad you get the same feeling of togetherness," Maddison said.

LONDON, Nov 12 (Reuters) - Leicester City beat West Ham United 2-0 with goals from James Maddison and Harvey Barnes on Saturday to complete a hat-trick of away wins in the Premier League, though Maddison gave England fans a brief scare when he went off for treatment. But Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers allayed any fears that the midfielder could miss the tournament in Qatar that kicks off on Nov. 20, with England set to play Iran in their group opener a day later. The result moved Leicester up to 12th in the standings going into the mid-season break while West Ham fell to 16th place, one point above the relegation zone. West Ham fans began leaving in droves after the second goal while many of those who stayed behind booed David Moyes's side at the final whistle as they fell to a third straight league defeat.

Liverpool beat Southampton 3-1 as Darwin Nunez scored his first double for the team and Roberto Firmino also got on the scoresheet. Leicester coach Brendan Rodgers sought to calm fears about the midfielder's fitness, stating he had taken him off as a precautionary measure. For this reason I think we showed great character, great will to not give up and to believe," said Conte. Leeds coach Jesse Marsch added: "I'm gutted, I feel like someone has ripped my heart out." Newcastle United were in action against Chelsea later on Saturday while league leaders Arsenal visit Wolverhampton Wanderers with the chance to increase their advantage over City to five points.

REUTERS/Naseem Zeitoun/File PhotoNov 10 (Reuters) - England have included in-form Leicester City midfielder James Maddison in their squad for the World Cup in Qatar, with forwards Callum Wilson and Marcus Rashford also selected. Maddison and Newcastle United striker Wilson have not played for England since 2019, but have been rewarded for fine starts to the domestic season in the run-up to this month's tournament. Brentford striker Ivan Toney received his first call up for Nations League fixtures against Italy and Germany in September, but missed out on selection with Wilson and Rashford preferred. England begin their World Cup group campaign against Iran on Nov. 21 and also face the United States and Wales.

LEICESTER, England, Oct 29 (Reuters) - A stunning free kick from Kevin De Bruyne earned Manchester City a 1-0 victory at Leicester City on Saturday, a win that moved the champions back to the top of the Premier League. ""The free kick goes perfectly, luckily it's 1-0," De Bruyne told BT Sport. "It's not about the assist that Kevin always has, or the free kick. City have now kept a clean sheet in six of their 12 games this season, which is better than all other Premier League teams. "The difference was a moment of brilliance from probably the best player in the Premier League."
"I have a feeling that we lost two points, especially with the way we started the game and the chances we had," Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said. Newcastle have already drawn with Manchester City and Manchester United this season and their only loss was a stoppage-time defeat by Liverpool. Sunday's win at Tottenham sent the clearest message yet that they can challenge for a Champions League berth. Harry Kane pulled one back for third-placed Tottenham in the 54th minute with his 10th goal of the season but Newcastle comfortably held on for the points. "Real pride in the players today and great to be part of those scenes," Newcastle manager Eddie Howe, who took over last year with the club heading towards relegation, told reporters.
Alex Harvill, un tânăr cascador în vârstă de 28 de ani, și-a pierdut joi viața, în statul american Washington, în timp ce se antrena pentru o săritură de record mondial cu motocicleta, informează CNN. Momentul în care acesta s-a izbit de pământ a fost surprins de martori. Înconjurat de susținători, Harvill s-a antrenat la Aeroportul Internaţional Grant County, iar momentul în care acesta a pierdut controlul motorului a fost postat pe reţelele de socializare. În imagini se vede cum motocicleta lui Harvill a lovit marginea superioară a malului de pământ folosit drept rampă de aterizare, iar bărbatul a fost aruncat de pe motocicletă. „Cele mai profunde gânduri ale noastre se îndreaptă către familia, prietenii și cei dragi ai lui Alex”, a declarat joi procurorul comitatului Grant, Craig Morrison.
