24 h. ago Inter Miami claim MLS Cup as Messi inspires tight win over Vancouver

Messi sparks Miami’s opening goalDe Paul scores 71st-minute winnerInter Miami 3-1 Vancouver – as it happenedAs the confetti flew, the Philip F Anschutz trophy was lifted into the air, and a player commonly thought to be the greatest ever to kick a ball celebrated the 48th title of his professional career, it was nearly impossible to believe that at several points, there were doubts. Serious doubts. Questions, large and small, about this Inter Miami squad, their manager, and nearly every player on the roster other than Lionel Messi.Consider them answered. The Herons are MLS Cup champions after a 2-1 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps in the last game at their temporary home, Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Next year, they will open their new stadium, Miami Freedom Park, as champions, and will face a high bar to clear to top a turbulent 2025 that saw them play 58 games – an all-time MLS record for games played by a team in a calendar year – for five separate trophies.

Footage of bottles and chairs being thrown as two rival groups of supporters of the same club clashed before the game in one of the city’s squares went viral on X. “Palace fans fighting each other in Strasbourg,” read the message, not surprisingly sparking widespread confusion.

4 d. ago Wheelchair rugby league is booming in England – they even won the Ashes

England’s 2-0 series win in the Ashes was the perfect preparation for the World Cup in Australia next yearBy No Helmets RequiredEngland did win the Ashes last month. The wheelchair team’s 2-0 series victory in Australia went under the radar in the UK. With games played in the early hours and not screened on mainstream TV, the team missed out on the adulation that came their way when they won the World Cup in Manchester three years ago. “The forgotten Ashes? That’s sad if it’s true,” says the coach, Tom Coyd. “The NRL showed great engagement and we did loads of media there, but we were in a bubble and pretty disconnected from back home.”England will return to Australia next year to defend their world title. The favourites will be expected to beat Wales, USA and Ireland in their group before facing the second and third best teams in the world – France and Australia – in the knockout stages of the tournament in Wollongong. The Ashes series taught Coyd vital lessons about how to manage ...
