Germany imposes its game and wins through the intervention of the VAR

Minute 48: Joachim Andersen picks up a loose ball in the German box and mark at the half turn. Minute 50: The referee, at the request the VAR cancels it for offside at the start of the play. Minute 51: Andersen deflects with his hand a cross from Raum. He is a defender, and he is in the Danish box. Minute 52: The VAR warns the referee Michael Oliver to see the penalty that went unnoticed. Minute 53: Havertz scores 1-0 for Germany.

The ups and downs of modern football marked the duel, since video review had a goal disallowed by Nico Schlotterbeck for an unclear reason at the start of the match, and it is a modern development that the match was stopped due to the threat of a thunderstorm which was confirmed by a brief hailstorm.

But there are traditions that are usually fulfilled and Germany made the most of its status as host and the strength of its will to eliminate Denmark with a solid performance, the fourth of the tournament, although it had difficulties with Switzerland, understandable, given the shake-up it gave Italy. Germany awaits Spain if they beat Georgia in the quarterfinals.

Germany had a couple of tight moments – what team doesn’t have them these days? – which ended when Jamal Musiala made it 2-0 off the scoreboard in a solo breakaway. Poor Andersen could not keep up with him, whether it was due to the weight of his conscience, disgust or guilt.

Frustrated defeat

Germany could have also scored a goal with several escapes from their forwards, making it 2-0. It was then that Denmark played with three defenders at the back, an idea that had become unviable from the start due to Germany’s pressure. Bah and Maehle played deep, and the team was never able to stretch forward, neither with their wingers nor with balls that Hojlund held up in front, except at very specific moments due to a German loss.

It was not just an early charge to impress, even though In 10 minutes Germany took three corners and finished all three: The first ended in a goal, with Gündogan apparently interfering with Schmeichel so much that he was unable to reach Schlotterbeck’s impressive header.

The game stops

Germany kept the gas on, and when the match was stopped, they filled up the tank with petrol. Oliver stopped the game shortly after the lightning flashes in the sky; the English referee was wise, because he unleashed a strong storm of water and hail that did not catch the players, already in the locker room.

The second trip to the field repeated the course of the first. Within a minute, Havertz and Schlotterbeck – the centre-back who replaced the suspended Bah, a hyperactive presence in both areas – finished off Schmeichel again. But Germany returned to the booth with the scare for a exemplary nordic backlash which aborted Neuer’s early exit at Hojlund’s feet.

The third restart precipitated the events with the goals and dictated the progressive change of the script, insufficient for Germany not to confirm that it is once again what it was.

LeBron James Set to Make History with Third Olympic Appearance

He competed in his first Olympics at age 19. He returned twice in his 20s. Now, just months shy of his 40th birthday, he’s about to get another taste.

LeBron James has nothing left to prove. If he lines up with the Americans once again, it’s simply because he wants to.

James is set to become the first U.S. men’s basketball player to compete in the Olympics in three decades.

The United States camp is in motion in Nevada, the starting point where they are ultimately looking for a fifth gold medal in a row.

“I’m still playing at a high level,” said James, who has two gold medals and a bronze to his name. “I still enjoy playing basketball and I have a great relationship with Team USA. It was important for me to join the guys this summer.”

James can notably reconnect with two of his former coaches, Erik Spoelstra and Tyronn Lue. He won an NBA title with each of them at the helm.

“It’s amazing how intense he is in practice,” U.S. coach Steve Kerr said. “I asked Ty and ‘Spo’ if that’s normal, and they said he’s like that every drill, every day.” READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

James won bronze in 2004 in Athens and also in 2006 at the World Championship (now the World Cup) in Japan.

Since then, the Americans have always won gold when he has donned their jersey, with a record of 36-0.

“Our only goal is to win gold,” James said.

The Americans will face Canada in a pre-season match on Wednesday.

As part of its “Land of Games Paris 2024” label, the Community and Sports Life office of the Pont-Saint-Esprit town hall organized a day around the Paralympic Games last Monday at Clos Bon-Aure.

Thus, all the CM1 and CM2 pupils in the town, i.e. 250 children, were able to practice Paralympic sports thanks to the equipment provided by the Gard handisport committee: goalball, judo and long race with guide for visually impaired people, wheelchair basketball and sprint for motor impaired people. They were also able to talk with the Spiripontain motorcycle rider Matthieu Lefebvre, who himself has a disability.

The idea of this day, a few weeks before the Olympic and Paralympic Games, was to raise awareness among students about disabilities. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

Carlos Alcaraz (ATP 3) has to take a detour against Ugo Humbert (ATP 16), but is in the quarterfinals after a 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5.
Jannik Sinner (ATP 1) leaves Ben Shelton (ATP 14) no chance.
On the outdoor courts at Wimbledon, some matches have to be interrupted again due to the rain.

Playful and with fast legs: Carlos Alcaraz thrilled the crowd on Centre Court when he reached the quarter-finals at Wimbledon – but then found himself in danger at times. The 21-year-old defending champion was the more complete professional in the almost three-hour duel with the aggressive Frenchman Ugo Humbert and won 6:3, 6:4, 1:6, 7:5.

A loss of tension in the third set cost Alcaraz an even quicker win, but Humbert then played well and sensed his chance of a surprise. After that, however, the Spaniard improved again and made it to the quarter-finals. There he will face Tommy Paul (USA) or Roberto Bautista Agut (ESP).

The world number one Jannik Sinner stopped the winning streak of American tennis pro Ben Shelton at Wimbledon. The 22-year-old Italian won in the round of 16 with 6:2, 6:4, 7:6 (11:9). In the fight for a place in the round of the best four, Sinner will face former US Open winner Daniil Medvedev from Russia or Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov.
