  + stars: | 2023-11-01 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
"Wettest game in history but job done and top of the group with the girlsss," Ireland captain Katie McCabe posted on Instagram after the match in Shkoder. "Ballon Pour," Ireland team mate Louise Quinn commented under the post, a reference to McCabe, like many others, missing the Ballon d'Or ceremony on Monday despite her nomination. After 20 minutes of play the first rumbles were heard, accompanied by torrential rain. The game was scoreless at halftime and play was suspended for an hour as ground staff cleared the waterlogged pitch. Denise O'Sullivan scored the winner in the 88th minute, and with four wins from four games, Ireland have secured the group win and promotion with two games still to play.

Father and son missing as floods hit northern Albania

TIRANA, Nov 20 (Reuters) - A father and son were missing in Albania on Sunday after their car was swept into a river during floods in the north of the country as heavy rains led emergency services to evacuate those at risk. A girl who was also in the car when it was caught in the flow of a swollen stream managed to escape, police said. Some schools were closed in the affected areas and Albanian emergency services had begun to evacuate people close to the town of Shkoder as a result of the flood danger. Albania, which relies all its electricity domestic production from hydro, has seen its worst drought in years during 2022, forcing the government to import more power.

Pe plaja Velipoje din apropiere de Shkoder, membrii a două familii care conduc hoteluri în acel loc s-au certat în legătură cu aranjamentul corturilor şi şezlongurilor. Nu e clar deocamdată de ce conflictul a escaladat atât de tare încât s-a ajuns la folosirea armelor. Numeroase forţe speciale au securizat duminică dimineaţă locul unde s-a produs incidentul. Oaspeţii de la un hotel din apropiere care au fost alarmaţi în somn de focurile de armă au părăsit locul de cazare.
