LEEDS, Oct 23 (Reuters) - Leeds United sank to a 3-2 defeat at home to Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday, leaving them in the relegation zone and heaping more pressure on coach Jesse Marsch. Leeds, who are without a league win since August, are 18th in the standings on nine points after a fourth consecutive defeat. Fulham also wasted two clear efforts but took the lead in the 74th minute when full-back Bobby Decordova-Reid headed in another cross from Pereira. The goal led to Leeds fans quickly turning on American coach Marsch, some chanting "You're getting sacked in the morning".

The walkouts over wage increases as Europe's cost-of-living crisis deepens have caused thousands of fuel stations to run dry.

Drivers are running out of diesel as they search for open fuel stations. Delays have resulted in a small number of contracts being cancelled, she said, speaking at her office in Mitry-Mory, east of Paris.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine will cost $2.8 trillion in lower economic output by the end of 2023, the OECD says. The Paris-based group added that that amount could climb depending on how Europe's energy crisis unfolds. In Germany, Europe's largest economy, the figure revised from 1.7% growth to a 0.7% contraction. And all these figures could worsen if a severe winter exacerbates Europe's energy crisis, the Paris-based economic group said. "This marks an important milestone in building up an LNG supply infrastructure in Germany and setting up a more diversified gas supply," Germany utility giant RWE said about the agreement.

CFR Cluj a suferit joi seara cea mai categorică înfrângere din istoria echipei în cupele europene, 0-5 cu AS Roma. Antrenorul clujenilor, Dan Petrescu, a fost resemnat după eșecul de pe Olimpico. Petrescu consideră că prestaţia ardelenilor a fost afectată de numărul mare de jucători indisponibili şi a acuzat iar campania slabă de transferuri. Constrâns de accidentările şi de infectările cu Covid-19 din lot, antrenorul campioanei României a fost nevoit să trimită la Roma o defensivă improvizată. Cred că nici noroc nu am avut, parcă fiecare şut al lor a fost gol.
