Dutch far-right leader Geert Wilders said Wednesday that he would not be prime minister despite his stunning election win in November, due to a lack of support across the political spectrum.

The 24-year-old became the world's only top-flight openly gay men's player in 2021, winning plaudits throughout the sporting world and beyond for his decision to come out. Cavallo popped the question to Leighton Morrell on one knee at an empty Hindmarsh Stadium and posted the images on social media late Wednesday. "Thank you Adelaide United for helping set up this surprise," said Cavallo, who has since become a vocal advocate for gay rights. "Your endless support has meant so much to me.

Trailing by a single goal after last month's first leg, Atletico looked dead and buried when Federico Dimarco pushed home Inter's opener at the Estadio Metropolitano. But Antoine Griezmann immediately pulled the hosts level on the night and three minutes before the end of the regulation 90 minutes substitute Memphis Depay took the tie to extra time at 2-2 with a fine low finish. That set up the decisive shoot-out which ended with Inter missing three of their five penalties, star striker Lautaro... Читать дальше...

Having only been used as a substitute in last weekend's 2-2 draw with Reims in Ligue 1, Mbappe was recalled in one of six changes made by coach Luis Enrique. He responded by opening the scoring in the 14th minute at the Parc des Princes, and Fabian Ruiz soon doubled the home side's lead. Gaetan Laborde pulled one back before the break for Nice, but Brazilian defender Lucas Beraldo's first PSG goal sealed the win on the hour mark. Ten points clear at the top of Ligue 1 and through to the Champions League quarter-finals... Читать дальше...

Level at 1-1 after the last-16 first leg in the Netherlands, Sancho wasted no time in putting Dortmund ahead at the Westfalenstadion with a low shot from outside the area -- his first Champions League goal since November 2021. Dortmund were shaky despite the early lead and needed a fair share of luck and some poor PSV finishing to progress, with Hirving Lozano's 53rd-minute effort hitting the post. PSV pushed forwards in stoppage time looking for an equaliser but instead gave away another goal... Читать дальше...

The "X-Men: Apocalypse" and "The Newsroom" performer took to Instagram to tell followers her news, just days after she attended the Oscars ceremony with her partner, comedian John Mulaney.
