Zaha was sent off late in the second half of the 1-1 draw at St Mary’s Stadium, having opened the scoring for Palace before the break. The former Manchester United star clashed with Saints midfielder James Ward-Prowse to earn a first booking and then immediately received a second card for sarcastically applauding referee Andre Marriner, leading to his dismissal. Zaha continued to make the gesture towards the official following the red card, showing his frustration as he departed the field....

The Duke of Sussex and Duchess of Sussex spoke passionately about racism in a discussion for the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust on July 1. Footage was released for the first time today and their outspoken comments were criticized by a British lawmaker who said they should “not get involved in politics” and Queen Elizabeth II would not “be too pleased.” However, a well placed royal source has told Newsweek the couple have license to speak their minds on behalf of the Queen’s Commonwealth Trust because it is a separate entity....

Although this was said softly, it struck a familiar chord. Much of my mail reflected generational resentment. We survived the Depression and World War II, the letters say. We skimped to buy our first homes and saved for retirement. Don’t blame us for your problems. There’s something to this. The experiences of older Americans and baby boomers are polar opposites. Older Americans grew up in hard times and now think they’re entitled to security....

Torres became a national hero when his goal against Costa Rica lifted Los Caneleros to a 2-1 victory and earned them the third position in the final round of CONCACAF World Cup qualification, sending Panama to its first-ever World Cup. While Torres was born in the capital, an official who represents Arraijan in neighboring province Panama Oeste is hoping to pay tribute to Torres and the time he spent in the town during his formative years....

The Belgium star netted his side’s third goal with an impudent ‘Panenka’ finish from the spot to make the three points safe at Stamford Bridge. The finish capped a fine performance from Hazard, who had earlier drawn the champions level after Dwight Gayle’s surprise opener, with Alvaro Morata’s header making it 2-1 before half-time. Hazard says he did not give much thought to how he would take the penalty but admits it requires a level of luck to the goalkeeper in such a manner....

The Royals invited Daredevils to bat but were guilty of feeding the home batsmen deliveries which were either too short or too full, making the job easy for the hosts after rain made it a 18-overs per side affair. The young Prithvi Shaw (47) was yet again in sublime touch and raised a 73-run stand with his captain for the second wicket after the side lost Colin Munro (0) in the fourth ball of the innings....

Norman’s departure, however, won’t be a shock to Carolina’s defensive system. With a huge payday looming for defensive tackle Kawann Short, Norman was no longer a short- or long-term luxury the team could afford, especially for a player who will turn 29 years old in December. The decision to break away meshed with the Panthers’ philosophy of investing in the front seven and not overspending in the secondary. The Panthers’ biggest priority heading into training camp is figuring out who will replace Norman in the starting lineup....

Carolina called a timeout with less than five seconds to play in the second quarter of its preseason opener against Chicago at Soldier Field in an attempt to ice the kicker. The strategy, however, did not work out as Elliott Fry nailed a 43-yard field goal just before halftime. The move was unusual in an exhibition game and Rivera was asked about it after his team’s 23-13 win. “I did that to help the Bears,” Rivera told reporters....

It is also customary for marching bands to perform on the field during halftime of football games.

The Panthers linebacker broke his right forearm in Sunday’s 49-15 win over the Cardinals in the NFC championship game. He had surgery Monday and was on the practice field Wednesday as a spectator. Davis said after the win over the Cardinals nothing will keep him out of the Super Bowl against the Broncos on Feb. 7.

The Panthers announced on Tuesday that Newton was not present at practice, and general manager Marty Hurney said it was due to the re-aggravation of a mild-foot sprain he suffered during the preaseason. There is no timetable for Newton’s return. “We will see how it goes,” Hurney said, via The Athletic. Newton went 25-for-51 passing in a loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday and had a career-low two carries for zero yards....

Eduardo Berizzo’s side had failed to win in seven games before Sunday’s routine victory – a run that stretched back to October 2017. They face Asian Cup champions Qatar in their opening fixture and given that Argentina and Colombia are the other sides in Group B, Berizzo knows anything other than three points will make their chances of progression to the knock-out stages extremely difficult. Along with Japan, Qatar have been invited to the tournament by CONMEBOL to bring the number of teams to 12....

One gamer with this problem was Reddit user Loplo_Fox on r/xboxone. In their case, their child would press their Xbox One’s power button while it was on, likely due to the noise it made upon being pressed. While Loplo_Fox may or may not have been able to move the console out of their young child’s reach, they instead found another solution.

The 2018-19 campaign will be Parma’s first back in the top flight since 2014-15, when they finished bottom and were subsequently forced to reform in Serie D after going bankrupt. Parma have signed a host of new players in pre-season, with Napoli proving a regular source of support, having already brought in Luigi Sepe, Amato Ciciretti and Jacopo Dezi on temporary deals from the San Paolo club. And now Inglese and Grassi follow on the road well-travelled, providing reinforcements in attack and midfield respectively....

Fire erupted at Rome’s iconic Cinecittà studios shortly after 3:30 p.m. Monday, when a set based on Renaissance-era Florence went ablaze. Netflix’s production of Old Guard 2, the sequel to Old Guard starring Charlize Theron, was briefly disrupted. At least two days of filming of the Netflix production were lost. The fire was so massive that a column of black smoke could clearly be seen from miles away, and some nearby roads had to be closed to traffic....
