Cristiano Ronaldo double propels Real Madrid to comeback win over PSG

  February 14, 2018    


 Unai Emery said that the preparation for this game started at the Camp Nou last season but he cannot have meant like this. It was not three goals in seven minutes and it is not decisive yet but Paris Saint-Germain did concede twice in that period to leave them facing another premature European exit. They still have the Parc des Princes and Zinedine Zidane warned that “anything can happen” in three weeks’ time, but after Adrien Rabiot and Cristiano Ronaldo scored in the first half, Marco Asensio came on to create late goals for Ronaldo and Marcelo, just when PSG appeared to be exercising some control. “They scored when we were at our best,” Emery said, which is why it is Madrid who are in control of the tie now.
  Real Madrid suffered at times but they will not relinquish their European title without a fight. “This club has 12 Champions Leagues and there is a reason for that,” Zidane said. “We can be very happy with what we did against a very good team tonight.”

Dananjaya takes five as Sri Lanka clinch series

  February 10, 2018    

Sri Lanka 222 (Mendis 68, Roshen 56, Razzak 4-63, Taijul 4-83) and 226 (Roshen 70*, Taijul 4-76) beat Bangladesh 110 (Dananjaya 3-20, Lakmal 3-25) and 123 (Dananjaya 5-24, Herath 4-49) by 215 runs

Bangladesh plunged, Sri Lanka's spinners soared and the Mirpur Test tore to its conclusion midway through day three, the visitors triumphing by 215 runs. Debutant Akila Dananjaya was prime destroyer. He scythed rapidly through the Bangladesh lower-middle order, taking 5 for 24 to make it eight wickets on debut - the best performance by a Sri Lankan on debut. The charge to victory was also sweet for Rangana Herath, who claimed 4 for 49 and in doing so, became the most successful left-arm bowler in Test history.
After even Sri Lanka's lower order had batted with a little mettle, the rate of Bangladesh's demise in this Test will irk the hosts. Only four batsmen made it into double figures, and no one batted for longer than 51 deliveries. The pitch was as treacherous as ever, but chances were too freely given. Perhaps, chasing a highly improbable 339, and with little chance of saving the game, the futility of their situation contributed to their meekness. It took Sri Lanka fewer than 30 overs to clean the opposition up. This was Bangladesh's first series defeat at home since 2015 - the absence of Shakib Al Hasan keenly felt.
The selection of Dananjaya - out of all Sri Lanka's teams until seven months ago, and considered a limited-overs specialist in any case - has proved to be a spectacular move in this Test. Though he bowled only 15 overs in the game (fewer than either of the senior spinners), the overspin he puts on the ball made him a menacing prospect. Repeatedly he had balls leap up off a length, and one such ball struck Liton Das in the glove, and was caught at short leg. Sabbir Rahman was also caught off his glove; Mahmudullah edged another Dananjaya delivery that jumped at him; and Mehidy Hasan nicked a straighter delivery. Wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella helped Dananjaya along to his maiden five-wicket haul. He pulled off a fast stumping of Abdur Razzak when the batsman had merely overbalanced. Dananjaya's 8 for 44 comprise the best debut figures for a Sri Lanka bowler.

Russia to use ‘Made in Pakistan’ footballs in FIFA World Cup 2018

  February 05, 2018    

SIALKOT: Pakistan may not be a participant in the world’s grand sporting event – FIFA World Cup 2018 – but Pakistanis still have some reason to rejoice.
Almost 200 million Pakistanis will feel their presence in the mega event after Pakistan’s famous footballs will be used in the World Cup matches.
It was also confirmed by Russian Ambassador to Pakistan Alexey Dedov that his country was going to use Pakistan-made footballs for the World Cup matches.

Pakistan is currently ranked 198th nation in the international football rankings.
Workers at a local sports company in Sialkot – which is a contracting manufacturer of global sports brand Adidas – are working extra hours to ensure on-time delivery of the footballs.
According to Husnain Cheema, president of the Pakistan Sports Goods Association, the country will export around 10 million footballs across the world this year.

The city has been famous for producing finest quality sports goods and has been supplying footballs for mega events for a long time.
Forward Sports, which also makes footballs for the German Bundesliga, France Ligue 1 and the Champions League, was also the official football provider of 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
“This is an honour for us that we are going to provide footballs for the world cup once again. We are very excited to meet this challenge,” Khawaja Masood, the chairman of the company, told Anadolu Agency.
Khawaja said his firm produced a total of 700,000 footballs a month.
The football that will be used in the upcoming tournament is technically termed as thermo bonded, which was first introduced in the 2014 FIFA World Cup.
Thermo bonded balls are made by attaching the panels through heat – the latest technology adopted by Adidas and transferred to Forward Sports in 2013.
Before that, Pakistan had supplied hand stitched football for almost all the World Cups from the 1990s to 2010.
“Although Pakistan football team will not be participating in the forthcoming World Cup, its presence will be felt in all the matches [because of the balls],” said Khawaja.
