The Gaurs announced their ninth signing ahead of the upcoming campaign on their social media handles on Saturday. Their Twitter handle has been teasing fans of the signing since Friday morning. The 27-year old defender started his professional career with the A-League club Brisbane Roar and made 62 league appearances for them before moving to rivals Melbourne Victory. After a couple of seasons at the Melbourne-based club, Donachie moved to South Korean club Jeonnam Dragons but returned to Melbourne on a loan deal after the Dragons were relegated to the second division....

Jamshedpur are currently fifth in the ISL standings, with 13 points from nine games. A win in this game will see them leapfrog both FC Goa and Hyderabad FC and lift them to third place. For Kerala Blasters, the season so far has been an all-too-familiar story. The Blasters are a spot above the bottom and have picked up just six points from nine games. In their last game, they handed Odisha their first win of the current season, as they went down 4-2....

SC East Bengal Preview ISL newcomers SC East Bengal continue their search for a win in the competition after facing three defeats in a row. Their ISL campaign had gotten off to a poor start when they were outplayed by rivals ATK Mohun Bagan in the first-ever Kolkata Derby in the league. Head coach Robbie Fowler has been openly critical of his squad members, especially the Indian contingent. The team will be highly determined to do their best and deliver a result for the gaffer....

SC East Bengal have got off to a dismal start in their debut ISL campaign, with three losses in as many matches so far. They have not managed to score a single goal in the competition as their struggles continue. To add to their woes, some of SC East Bengal’s key players, such as defenders Danny Fox and Gurtej Singh, have suffered a host of injuries. Englishman Fowler will hope his side is able to get its act together when it takes on Jamshedpur FC....

The Kolkata-based club have a new face in their dugout. Mario Rivera took over the coaching job but interim head coach Renedy Singh has led the side for the past few games. Not much was expected of the side after their defensive performances under the interim coach. FC Goa started the game with their usual approach. Under Derrick Perreira, the side maintained their loving relationship with the ball and were dominant from the first minute....

Mumbai’s proficiency in front of goal has gone on to another level as the Islanders have already found the back of the net 16 times in six games – scoring 10 goals in five other matches before they scored six goals past the disjointed Marina Machans. They have also conceded eight goals in the process. Bengaluru’s dry patch in front of goal has been their biggest downfall in the ISL this season....

Bengaluru FC coach Albert Roca pointed that his side have never conceded two goals from a set-piece and that Dimas Delgado’s injury in the first half affected them. None of his substitutions, namely Victor Perez, Daniel Segovia and Nishu Kumar, worked as they struggled to cope with the physicality of the Tamil Nadu-based club. “Congratulations to Chennaiyin! I am sad as we would have liked to get the trophy for our fans that they deserved....

Trottier collaborated with Flux88 Studios and digital artist Kevin Briones to create three pieces of artwork for the Official Bryan Trottier Moments NFT collection. “It’s fresh. It’s fun. The fact that it’s something new to the collectible world and the hockey world, I think it’s always kind of fun to be on the edge of something fresh and new. For me, it’s been a real good experience,” Trottier told Sporting News from his home in Pittsburgh in a recent phone interview....

But once you get past the rhetoric, it becomes clear that the Israeli right has no solutions, either. The right in Israel held three core positions: first, that there could never be a Palestinian state (Jordan was the true Palestinian state). Second, that Arafat and the PLO were not legitimate representatives of the Palestinian people and could never be negotiating partners. And finally, that the Jewish settlements in Gaza and on the West Bank would expand indefinitely....

The image, which circulated social media platforms Tuesday, was meant to show how “the culture industry in israel is being shut down because of corona,” according to a now-deleted post by Eurovision star Netta Barzilai. On Monday, government officials issued new restrictions in an effort to curb the rising number of positive coronavirus cases, including the shutdown of event halls, cultural venues, bars and nightclubs. Israel, which was initially praised by world leaders for its swift handling of the virus outbreak, has seen a rapid increase in cases within the last month, after the government had allowed large gatherings to resume in late May....

Those are just a few of the programs available on CD-ROMs, one of the computer industry’s hottest new products. “There’s no question that 1993 was the year of the CD-ROM explosion,” says Ken Wasch, executive director of the Software Publishers Association, a trade group. This year, there have been dozens of new titles every month (including some from traditional print publishers, like NEWSWEEK). Major movie studios are also developing CD-ROM titles....

The Brazil international, who is currently away on Copa America duty, was restricted to just eight Premier League starts in 2018-19 due to the goalscoring form of Aguero. That led to speculation last month suggesting City are prepared to offload Jesus during the close-season in order to raise funds to bring in other players. But the 22-year-old sees his future at the Etihad Stadium and insists he is respectful of Aguero’s status at the club, which has forced him to settle for a back-up role....

For the fourth consecutive year, Sporting News is honoring Admiral Ackbar from “Star Wars” with a look at the biggest trap games — this time, for our preseason top 25 teams. MORE: SN preseason rankings, All-Americans and more So, what’s a trap? A trap game could be a sandwich game, an untimely visit to unfriendly confines or a simple spoiler that comes at the worst time.

Every president gets to indulge a personal hobby. George Bush set up a horseshoe pit. Gerald Ford built a swimming pool on the South Lawn. Rhodes scholar Clinton has created a private university-with a student body of one and a handpicked faculty. Every few months, in unpublicized sessions, Clinton brings in leading scholars. To cram for last year’s D-Day anniversary, he summoned Eisenhower biographer Stephen Ambrose. To grapple with affirmative action, Clinton noodled with Yale Law professor Paul Gewirtz and the University of Chicago’s William Julius Wilson....

"I was on the bench, thank God," Landeskog told Sporting News on Monday. GENTILLE: Impressions from Avs’ shutout of Pens The Avs' 20-year-old captain, naturally, was talking about Roy's three-way throwdown with Anaheim Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau and a Pepsi Center partition on Oct. 5. It came 60 minutes into Roy's first game, when he took exception to what he thought was a knee-on-knee hit delivered to Avs rookie (and No....

“Apocalypse Across the Sky,” recorded on location in Jajouka, a small village with no electricity or running water, is by turns hypnotic and unsettling. The 22-member ensemble sets polyphonous, droning melody lines, played on an oboelike instrument called the ghaita, over dense, circular drumming patterns. Derived from pre-Islamic rites celebrating the god Pan, the music is an evocation of sustained ecstasy. It is chaotic, cacophonous, sometimes at war with itself....

Mitchell suffered a hamstring injury toward the end of Game 5. If it seriously hampers him, then that should make this series a wrap. The larger question looming is if the relationship between the two stars is worth continuing. There have been moments when they have been on the brink of finally forming some sort of connection. Gobert clinched Utah’s Game 4 win off a perfectly placed lob from Mitchell, showing what could be....

In this sequence, there are two very important news items appearing in every almost every platform covering sports. The first one is really heartening news. Our central minister for sports and youth affairs Jitender Singh has stated that there will be a law against all illegal sporting activities. He said that the central government is taking steps to introduce a new law to deal with all illegal activities in the field of sports....

One person on Reddit that goes by the name itsmefizzy attempted to find other Nintendo gamers in his area. While the Switch seems to be Nintendo’s main focus (the company recently announced the Switch OLED model), StreetPass continues to function for those that want to try and make some new friends.
