8 h. ago The White Lotus season three finale review – the show’s least satisfying ending ever

The most interesting character was sidelined, the deaths were riddled with lazy logic and it all felt frustratingly middling. Season four will have some redeeming to doWarning: this article contains spoilers for the finale of season three of The White Lotus. Do not read on unless you have seen episode eight, season three.In the Hollywood Reporter’s recent oral history, Mike White bristled at the thought of The White Lotus lapsing into a formula. For most of its third season, this didn’t make a lot of sense. After all, in its depiction of the obliviously wealthy, its whodunnit structure and its now mandatory transgressive sex scenes, a lot of this year’s season felt like The White Lotus by numbers.

San Diego FC has made fools of the doubters in its expansion season, while CF Montréal continues in the wildernessThe LA Galaxy know how to win. Or at least, they knew how to win. While last season ended with the club clinching a league-record sixth MLS Cup, they’re now making a different sort of history. Winless through their first six games of the season, Saturday’s 2-1 defeat to Orlando City means the Galaxy have made the worst start to a campaign of any defending MLS champion ever. They don’t put a star above the crest for that. Continue reading...

8 d. ago Haaland and Marmoush fire Manchester City to comeback win at Bournemouth

Manchester City continue to dream of a silver-lined finish to an underwhelming season. It was a day when Bournemouth were determined to make history by reaching a first semi-final in any major competition and their hopes were high at half-time. Not only had Kepa Arrizabalaga saved an Erling Haaland penalty, they were in front thanks to Evanilson’s scrambled finish.City were on the canvas. They would clamber up in fine style. Haaland had missed other chances and he would be forced off with an injury. But before he went, he had scored the equaliser. The match-winner would be his replacement. Omar Marmoush had been on the field for a matter of minutes and his first involvement was to take a touch before sweeping past Kepa. Continue reading...

3 w. ago Atalanta fall against Inter yet again while Inzaghi aims for the stars | Nicky Bandini

Another costly defeat means Gian Piero Gasperini’s side have not beaten the Nerazzurri from Milan since 2018There was no timidity left in the city of Bergamo, no desire to hide behind underdog status. The thousand Atalanta fans who descended on the team’s training ground on Saturday brought a banner insisting: “We Believe”. One day later, as their team prepared to kick off against Inter, another was unfurled in the north stand of Gewiss Stadium. “Needle and thread are in the drawer,” it read. “10 finals to stitch it on to our chest.”The reference of course was to the Scudetto – a badge in the colours of the Italian flag that Serie A’s winners get to wear on their kit. Atalanta have never enjoyed that honour. They have won only two pieces of major silverware in club history – the 1963 Coppa Italia and last season’s Europa League. In Serie A they have never finished higher than third, and even that is a recent development, achieved for the first time in 2019. Continue reading...
