CNN —Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola had no issues with fans booing his players after the team threw away a 3-0 lead and drew 3-3 against Feyenoord in the Champions League. The draw leaves City 15th in the new 36-team group phase in the Champions League. Per Reuters, City is the first team in Champions League history to fail to win a match having led by three goals in the 75th minute. People come here not to remember the success in the past, they come here today to see the team win and perform well. It’s a stark contrast to the defensive resilience in recent seasons that has provided the foundation for several Premier League titles and the first Champions League in the club’s history.

☆ FDA proposes ending use of decongestant found in many cold, allergy medicines
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-07 | by ( Annika Kim Constantino | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday proposed ending the use of a common ingredient found in many popular over-the-counter cold and allergy medications. The agency said an extensive review of available data determined that the ingredient, oral phenylephrine, doesn't actually relieve nasal congestion. The FDA said the proposed order is not based on safety concerns and not final yet, which means companies can still market over-the-counter drugs containing oral phenylephrine for now. Last year, CVS said it has already moved to pull certain medicines containing oral phenylephrine. The designation, typically used for older medicines, allows drugmakers to include an ingredient in over-the-counter products without the need to file an FDA application.

Previously, an appeals court had overturned a $185 million award in the trial after finding flaws in the case in May, according to Reuters. Shares had tumbled more than 30% last year amid challenges including ongoing litigation over the Monsanto unit and high net debt. Bayer argues the claims relate to industrial materials which Monsanto voluntarily ended manufacture of in 1977.
