A 3-1 loss to fellow strugglers Hannover on Saturday saw them drop to the foot of the table, with just five points to their name and a goal difference of minus seven. The club have responded by dismissing Korkut and his two assistants, Ilija Aracic and Steven Cherundolo, despite him having signed a contract extension in June. “The lack of development in the course of this season and the negative results have led us to take this step,” said sporting director Michael Reschke....

The Ghanaian registered his sixth goal of the campaign as the Eagles recorded their 13th win of the season. The result temporarily leaves Niko Kovac’s men fourth on the table ahead of Sunday’s round of games. It did not take long for Boateng to break the deadlock at Commerzbank-Arena. Following a corner, the Ghanaian squeezed a shot over the line at the back post to put his side 1-0 up....

But before things get Krak’ing (just a few more, promise), the Kraken kickstarted their inaugural season with a five-game road trip that saw a few things slip through the Kraks. While the team scored its first franchise goal — via Ryan Donato — and recorded its first franchise win — 4-3 over the Predators — the start of the season wasn’t all it was Krak’ed up to be. With a 4-2 loss to the Devils on Tuesday, Seattle headed home 1-3-1....

Niklas Suele and Kramaric, with his 10th goal this term, struck late on after Hertha’s Maximilian Mittelstaedt was sent off just before the hour. A Kramaric penalty had cancelled out Peter Pekarik’s strike for the hosts in the first half. The result lifted Hoffenheim to 48 points from 26 matches, two above Borussia Dortmund who visit Schalke 04 on Saturday, while Hertha’s second home loss this season hit their quest for a top-four finish as they stayed fifth, six points off Dortmund....

On Monday evening, Noem tweeted that she would take “every action available” to stop vaccine mandates shortly after President Joe Biden urged businesses to require their employees to get vaccinated. Biden made the plea following the announcement from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that the Pfizer COVID shot had been given a full approval from the agency. The Pfizer vaccine is the first COVID shot in the U.S. to be granted full approval, as other vaccines have only been given emergency authorization by the FDA for use in the country but are expected to be formally approved by the end of the year....

The list, which was released on Friday, saw no surprises except for the return of Ilkay Gundogan, who missed the 2014 World Cup and Euro 2016 because of injury, reports Efe.

Everton spent well over £100million on new players ahead of the new campaign; Davy Klaassen, Jordan Pickford, Michael Keane and Gylfi Sigurdsson all commanded large fees and the return of Wayne Rooney helped lead to a swell in optimism at Goodison Park. But the Toffees sit 16th in the Premier League with two wins from eight matches and bottom of their Europa League group after a 2-1 loss at home to Lyon on Thursday extended their wait for a win in the continental competition proper....

India turned down the opportunity to play a day-night match against Australia in Adelaide in 2018. However, the world’s leading Test side will play across the afternoon and evening for the first time when they take on Bangladesh in Kolkata on Friday. It is the second match of a two-game series, with India having cruised to victory by an innings and 130 runs in the opening Test. Captain Kohli had been reluctant to test the waters for a day-night Test, but believes India have made the correct decision in biding their time to play in the altered format....

Their rise comes despite India losing the ODI series against England 1-2 last night. Kohli ended the series with scores 75, 45 and 71. He earned just two points but those were enough to take him to 911 points, highest since Australia’s Dean Jones tally of 918 points in March 1991. Yadav has broken into the top-10 for the first time in his career. The left-arm wrist-spinner took nine wickets in the series, including six for 25 at Trent Bridge, which have been rewarded with a rise of eight places to a career-high sixth position, the ICC said in a statement....

Kojima Productions was founded back in 2005, but for many years it operated under the control of Konami Digital Entertainment, until Kojima’s dramatic split from the publisher in December 2015. Kojima was, for a time, a vice president of Konami, but the split seemed anything but amicable. Prior to leaving, Kojima developed P.T., a playable teaser for a new reboot of the Silent Hill franchise that he had planned in collaboration with film director Guillermo del Toro, but the project was canceled shortly after by Konami....

According to a recent interview with art director Yoji Shinkawa, Kojima Productions may be about to unveil what game it could potentially be working on next. Speaking to the YouTube channel Al Hub, Shinkawa, with the help of a translator, was asked a number of questions, such as how he got started in his career and what his work involved when he began collaborating with Kojima. On top of that, Shinkawa did say that he was currently “doing something” and that he may be able to give more details “quite soon....

The Serbia international has spent the last seven years in England, having completed a £16 million transfer in 2010. He has made close to 250 appearances for City, helping them to two Premier League titles, an FA Cup triumph and League Cup success.

Blessed with tremendous technical qualities, physicality, intelligence and vast experience at the top level, his presence has been crucial towards his team’s positive campaign so far, which was highlighted by the Giallorossi topping their incredibly tough UEFA Champions League group that also contained Chelsea and Atletico Madrid. The fact Roma have purposefully channelled a large portion of their attacks down his side has been a testament to his quality. It must be said too, though, that the methods Eusebio Di Francesco has used to ensure Kolarov has an ideal platform to shine have worked wonderfully....

As seen in the tweet below from Chris Scullion, the games journalist bought Fisher-Price’s FWG12 Game and Learn Controller for his daughter, and decided to see if inputting the Konami code–up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A–would elicit some kind of response. Lo and behold, it actually triggers several different video game-related sounds and ends with the controller saying, “You win!” As indicated above, the Fisher-Price toy in question appears to be modeled somewhat after the shape and layout of an Xbox One controller....

Former Olympic champion Park, who has already served an 18-month doping ban imposed by swimming’s world governing body FINA, has been fighting to repeal a KOC regulation that tacked on an additional three-year suspension which would rule him out of Rio. The 26-year-old South Korean lodged a case with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) but instructed the Switzerland-based tribunal not to proceed until he had a definitive answer from the KOC on the ruling....
