UEFA pledges to strengthen its fight against discrimination in football

UEFA general secretary Theodore Theodoridis pledged to do more to promote human rights and protect women from abuse in the sport.

In honour of the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, messages will be aired on television and social media during Champions League games next week, UEFA General Secretary Theodore Theodoridis announced on Tuesday during a sports conference held in the UN's European headquarters. During his speech delivered at the UN, he promised to do more to advance human rights and shield female players from harassment.&nbsp;
UEFA also agreed to strengthen the fight against discrimination in all its forms and admitted to the mistakes made in the past under Theodoridis' leadership.&nbsp;
The event on Tuesday was hosted by the Geneva-based Centre for Sport and Human Rights, UEFA's risk adviser for the 2024 European Championship in men's soccer which it wants to be inclusive and tackle discrimination.
Focus on the rapid growth of Women's soccer also: Theodore Theodoridis
Three weeks after forcing national team player Jenni Hermoso to kiss him on the lips during the Women's World Cup trophy presentation, Luis Rubiales resigned in September from his positions as president of the Spanish soccer federation and vice president of UEFA citing this incident as an example said, "We will also work to make sure that the rapid growth in the women's game is joined by greater efforts to prevent harassment, abuse and violence against women."

A jubilant Australia lifted the World Cup trophy for the record sixth time on November 19, 2023 but moments before the team photo, skipper Pat Cummins was caught off-guard.&nbsp;

Pat Cummins standing alone on the podium after being awarded the World Cup trophy was an unforgettable moment at the end of the marquee event. The Australian skipper had shook hands with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Deputy Prime Minister of Australia Richard Marles before accepting the trophy that evening. Nearly three weeks after the historic night, Cummins' teammate Glenn Maxwell has revealed what the team felt after seeing their captain all alone with the trophy. Speaking to Australian daily The Age, Maxwell said, 'It was quite funny watching the videos of the post-match presentation where he (Pat Cummins) shook Modi's hand and was stuck there on the podium.' Maxwell also commended his captain for dealing with the unexpected situation patiently.&nbsp; 'It felt like that lasted for about 10 minutes, him just standing there with the trophy waiting for the group to come on. But he actually dealt with it with class. He didn't make a big song and dance about it, [he] just thought 'you know what, I'll wait here, be respectful.' Not everyone would've dealt with that like he did.'&nbsp; Australia defeated India in the Cricket World Cup final to lift the trophy a record sixth time on November 19, 2023.&nbsp;

The spat between David Warner and Mitchell Johnson has taken a new turn just days ahead of the first Test between Australia and Pakistan. 

Mitchell Johnson dropped from commentators list for AUS vs PAK Test series amid David Warner controversy

<h2>The spat between David Warner and Mitchell Johnson has taken a new turn just days ahead of the first Test between Australia and Pakistan.&nbsp;</h2>

Amid the explosive controversy between former teammates Mitchell Johnson and David Warner, a new development has taken shape.
Australia take on Pakistan starting December 14 in a 3-match Test series and the 42-year-old former Aussie pacer was to commentate during the first Test.
But as per a new list released by media company Triple M, Johnson's name has been dropped from the commentators list.
This comes days after Johnson questioned David Warner's selection, citing poor Test form for the past two years.
The Test series will also mark Warner's departure from the longest format.
His selection had Johnson wondering if the southpaw deserves such a farewell after the 2018 ball-tampering scandal.
The spat has since blown up with selector George Bailey and other Australian players also commenting on it, with many of them coming to Warner's defence.

EPL: Declan Rice has last laugh in seven-goal thriller between Arsenal and Luton

Apart from being table-toppers, the win against Luton Town offers renewed hope to Mikel Arteta and his men about winning their first EPL title since 2004. 


Apart from being table-toppers, the win against Luton Town offers renewed hope to Mikel Arteta and his men about winning their first EPL title since 2004.&nbsp;

Arsenal moved five points clear at the top of the Premier League after Declan Rice's last-gasp goal capped the leaders' thrilling fightback in their 4-3 win against Luton on Tuesday.
Rocked by a pair of costly blunders from keeper David Raya, Mikel Arteta's side trailed 3-2 in the second half of a pulsating clash at Kenilworth Road.
But Arsenal roared back to consolidate their lead at the top of the table thanks to Kai Havertz's equaliser and Rice's header deep into stoppage-time.
The wild celebrations from Arteta and his players underlined the significance of a gritty escape that will fuel the belief Arsenal can finally win their first title since 2004.
"I'm so happy. We knew it would be a big battle here, we made it hard for ourselves the way we conceded the goals," Arteta said.
"The spirit of the team, how we fought, showed our quality in the right moments and never gave up. We went for it and got our rewards today.
"Big compliments to Luton, it was a tough night. I've spoken with the team, and they are all jumping."
Gabriel Martinelli had opened the scoring for Arsenal, with Luton's Gabriel Osho equalising and Gabriel Jesus restoring the visitors' advantage just before half-time.
Elijah Adebayo scored Luton's second equaliser soon after half-time thanks to the first of Raya's mistakes and Ross Barkley benefitted from another error from the Spaniard.
But England midfielder Rice had the last word to give Arsenal six successive wins in all competitions since their controversial VAR-aided defeat at Newcastle.
Second-placed Liverpool can close back to within two points of Arsenal if they win at bottom-of-the-table Sheffield United on Wednesday.
Arteta's men have been road warriors since the start of last season - winning 17 away games in that period -- and the Gunners' first trip to Kenilworth Road for 32 years brought their first victory at the venue since 1984.
They struck first in the 20th minute when Bukayo Saka weaved his way down the right flank for a low cross that Martinelli met with a scuffed finish into the bottom corner from 12 yards.

With the feud between Mitchell Johnson and David Warner out in the open, Glenn Maxwell called the opener an 'absolute champion of Australian cricket'.

<h2>With the feud between Mitchell Johnson and David Warner out in the open, Glenn Maxwell called the opener an 'absolute champion of Australian cricket'.</h2>

Australian cricket is witnessing a public feud between former teammates David Warner and Mitchell Johnson, but Glenn Maxwell is choosing not to get involved in the controversy. While tensions rise, Maxwell is clear that he supports Warner's selection in the Test team for the upcoming Pakistan series.
In a recent interview with Australian radio station SEN, Maxwell expressed his reluctance to add fuel to the ongoing dispute. He emphasized Warner's significant contributions to Australian cricket over the years and pointed out that the selectors had a clear stance on his inclusion.
"I&rsquo;m not going to throw my name into some headlines about this. But Davey&rsquo;s been an absolute champion of Australian cricket for a long period of time, and the selectors were pretty clear on what they thought of it (selecting him). I&rsquo;m looking forward to seeing Davey in that first Test and him making a lot of runs this summer," remarked Maxwell, steering clear of taking sides in the disagreement.
Warner and Johnson's feud took a personal turn, with Johnson revealing that a text message from Warner earlier this year played a role in their strained relationship. Despite the escalating tensions, Maxwell chose to maintain a neutral stance.

<h2>In a revealing episode on The Mitchell Johnson Cricket Show podcast, the former fast bowler disclosed that the feud turned personal when David Warner sent him a text message earlier this year.</h2>

A publicised feud between Mitchell Johnson and David Warner has left cricket enthusiasts curious and intrigued. The tension escalated when Johnson penned a scathing column, questioning how and why the Australian opener was getting to pick his farewell Test even when he didn't deserve his place in the side.
Johnson, in a revealing episode on The Mitchell Johnson Cricket Show podcast, disclosed that the feud turned personal when Warner sent him a contentious text earlier this year. The trigger was Johnson's response to comments made by Warner's wife, Candice. In April. Candice had openly discussed Warner's form on Fox Sports, suggesting that if he didn't perform, there was nobody Australia could bring in that would have been better.
Johnson, in his column on SMH, criticized this perspective, emphasizing that past achievements should not shield players from scrutiny.
The exchange took a more heated turn when Candice responded to Johnson's comments, suggesting that he seeks headlines by invoking Warner's name. The spat intensified, and according to Johnson, it was around this time that Warner sent a "really bad" text message, prompting Johnson to address the issue in his column. Even though Johnson didn't reveal the details on his podcast, he expressed disappointment with the content of Warner's text, describing it as "extremely disappointing" and "pretty

<h2>"I believe that I can return to international cricket" - Faf du Plessis has said that he has been in talks with South African coach Rob Walter about a potential return to the Proteas side.</h2>

Former South African captain Faf du Plessis has hinted at a potential return to international cricket, eyeing participation in the forthcoming ICC Men's T20 World Cup. His last international appearance was in a Test match against Pakistan in Rawalpindi in 2021, and his final T20 International match for South Africa occurred in Cape Town at the end of 2020.
Despite a hiatus from international cricket, du Plessis, now 39, has maintained an impressive form in domestic cricket. He notably secured the second-highest run total in the latest Indian Premier League, amassing 730 runs from 14 innings while playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore. His consistent performance at the domestic level has kept him in the reckoning for international matches.
Currently engaged in the Abu Dhabi T10 tournament, du Plessis has been in talks with Rob Walter, the white-ball coach for South Africa, about a potential comeback. "I believe that I can return to international cricket," du Plessis stated, emphasizing ongoing discussions about his role in the next T20 World Cup.
Du Plessis led South Africa in the T20 World Cup campaigns of 2014 and 2016. Although he wasn't part of the last two editions of the tournament, he has never officially retired from international white-ball cricket. Rob Walter, acknowledging the experience of players like du Plessis, has kept the door open for their return. He mentioned that while 80% of the South African team for the T20 World Cup might be predetermined, there's still room for other players to join based on their performance in domestic tournaments.
Despite no longer holding a central playing contract with South Africa, du Plessis, with his 23 international centuries across formats, remains confident in his ability and fitness to compete at the highest level. He underlines the importance of hard work and physical fitness, especially as players age, to maintain a competitive edge.

<h2>Mushfiqur palmed away a Kyle Jamieson delivery with his gloves, having first blocked it with his bat. He was eventually given out by the third umpire.</h2>

In a bizarre incident, Bangladesh's experienced batter Mushfiqur Rahim was given out for 'obstructing the field' during the Bangladesh vs New Zealand 2nd Test match which is being played at Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium, Dhaka.
At the time of the incident, Mushfiqur was batting at 35. Using his bat to block a ball from Kyle Jamieson, he palmed the ball away with his gloves as it bounced. It appeared as though the ball was heading away from the stumps innocuously, making his decision to step in even more questionable.
The umpires on the field got into a huddle and then referred the decision to the third umpire, who sealed his fate and gave him out for &lsquo;obstructing the field&rsquo;.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560">
Did Mushfiqur Rahim really need to do that? He's been given out for obstructing the field! This one will be talked about for a while... . .<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/BANvNZ?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#BANvNZ</a> <a href="https://t.co/SC7IepKRTh">pic.twitter.com/SC7IepKRTh</a>

Mushfiqur's failed first attempt
In the same match, Mushfiqur had earlier attempted to handle the ball when the ball had bounced and gone behind the stumps. By then, he realized what he was going to do and managed to stop himself just in time. However, he made a mistake and lost his wicket this time.
Mushfiqur, not the first casualty!
With this bizarre incident, Mushfiqur became the first player from Bangladesh to be given out for 'handling the ball'. England's Leonard Hutton was the first cricket was given out for 'obstructing the field'.&nbsp;
