Manchester City began their Champions League campaign with a dominant 2-0 win over 10-man Napoli at the Etihad, as Erling Haaland hit a record-breaking milestone and Jeremy Doku produced a moment of brilliance to seal the points. The match was only 21 minutes old when Napoli captain Giovanni Di Lorenzo was dismissed after a VAR…
Marcus Rashford scored his first Barcelona goals as the LaLiga giants sank a spirited Newcastle side in an enthralling game at St James’ Park on Thursday. Anthony Gordon pulled one back in the 90th minute for Eddie Howe’s side, who at times outplayed their big-name opponents. But they were ultimately undone by two fine Rashford…
The Cleveland Browns’ offensive line hasn’t been impressive so far this season. It hasn’t been as bad as it was last season, but it’s certainly not as good as it was in prior years. That’s why there was some concern when Dawand Jones sat out some plays in Week 2 against the Baltimore Ravens….

Suffice it to say, it wasn’t for him. At least not yet. Bravo is named on Fausto Gutierrez-trained 3-year-old colt Rashid in the…
Newcastle and Barcelona played out an entertaining but goalless first half in their Champions League clash at St James’ Park. Magpies manager Eddie Howe had said when the draw was made the tie had a “magical” feel to it. And while the first 45 did not quite live up to that billing, it was nonetheless…
The Cleveland Browns could use another reliable pass catcher. Perhaps they should give Odell Beckham Jr. a call.
