Concerning footage has emerged of Ibrahima Konate following Liverpool's 2-0 victory against Real Madrid on Wednesday night. The Reds were outstanding on the night, as they returned to the summit of the Champions League table. Each player was outstanding for the Merseyside outfit, but they were particularly resolute in defence, shutting out Kylian Mbappe and co., aside from conceding a clumsy penalty, which the Frenchman missed in the second half. Virgil van Dijk and Konate were largely untroubled, as they have been for much of this season, looking assured throughout against the reigning European champions. GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Only Conor Bradley and Ryan Gravenberch completed more defensive actions (5) against Real Madrid than Konate (4). Lloris Karius has revealed that he may retire from football and pursue a DJing career. Konate Leaves Pitch Injured Following the Match However, fan-recorded footage after the game appeared to show Konate limping off the pitch, having seemingly picked up a knock during the tie. The incident seemingly occurred late in the match when Endrick attempted to latch onto a through ball from Jude Bellingham, who was booed by home supporters throughout the tie . The Liverpool man blocked him out, but was seemingly caught by the forward as he went down. Although it seemed fairly innocuous at the time, fan-recorded footage after the game appeared to show the French defender in a lot of pain. While he was not supported by staff off the pitch, he certainly didn't seem to be moving comfortably. Considering how good Konate has been alongside Van Dijk throughout the season so far, the injury might give fans cause for concern given that they have a Premier League tie against Manchester City coming up at the weekend. The match will arguably have a huge say on Liverpool's title hopes, considering that they are already eight points clear of the Cityzens, which could extend to 11 with a win. Speaking after the match, Slot made no mention of Konate's injury, with him likely still being assessed by the medical staff. Instead, he chose to praise what was an exceptional team performance by his squad on the night. "You know how special it is to play against a team that has won the Champions League so many times. They were a pain in the ass for Liverpool for many years too. It is a big week and it is pleasing to see. "Every time Real Madrid threatened us was from us. I think we can play with more intensity and better with the ball."SÃO PAULO — Brazil’s federal police said Thursday they had indicted former President Jair Bolsonaro and 36 other people for allegedly attempting a coup to keep him in office after his defeat in the 2022 elections. Police said their findings were being delivered Thursday to Brazil’s Supreme Court, which must decide whether to refer them to Prosecutor General Paulo Gonet, who would either formally charge Bolsonaro and put him on trial or toss the investigation. The right-wing former president has denied all claims that he tried to stay in office after his narrow electoral defeat in 2022 to leftist Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Bolsonaro has faced a series of legal threats since then. Police said in a brief statement that the Supreme Court had agreed to reveal the names of all 37 people who were indicted “to avoid the dissemination of incorrect news.” The 700-page police document will probably take several days for the court to review, Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes said. Dozens of former and current Bolsonaro aides were among those indicted, including Gen. Walter Braga Netto, who was his running mate in the 2022 campaign; former Army commander Gen. Paulo Sérgio Nogueira de Oliveira; Valdemar Costa Neto, the chairman of Bolsonaro’s Liberal Party; and his veteran former advisor Gen. Augusto Heleno. The investigation started last year. On Tuesday, four military men and one federal police agent were arrested as part of the same inquiry. Other investigations focus on Bolosnaro’s potential roles in smuggling diamond jewelry into Brazil without properly declaring it and in directing a subordinate to falsify his and others’ COVID-19 vaccination statuses. Bolsonaro has denied involvement in either. Another investigation found that he had abused his authority to cast doubt on the country’s voting system, and judges barred him from running again until 2030. The far-reaching investigations have weakened Bolsonaro’s status as a leader of Brazil’s right wing, said Carlos Melo, a political science professor at Insper University in São Paulo. “Bolsonaro is already barred from running in the 2026 elections,” Melo told the Associated Press. “And if he is convicted he could also be jailed by then. To avoid being behind bars, he will have to convince Supreme Court justices that he has nothing to do with a plot that involves dozens of his aides. That’s a very tall order,” Melo said. On Tuesday, the federal police arrested four military officials and a federal police officer accused of plotting to overthrow the government after the 2022 election, including plans to kill Lula and other top officials.

Week 12 was filled with sloppy play around the NFL, leading to some upsets and surprising outcomes. Jayden Daniels nearly led Washington to an improbable comeback down 10 in the final two minutes against Dallas only to fall short because Austin Seibert's extra point sailed wide left. After a field goal and successful onside kick, Daniels connected with Terry McLaurin on an 86-yard catch-and-run touchdown to bring the Commanders within one point with 21 seconds remaining. But Seibert's point-after attempt failed and the Cowboys returned the ensuing onside kick for a touchdown to seal a 34-26 victory. Special teams were atrocious for both teams. Seibert also missed his first extra point and Washington allowed KaVontae Turpin's 99-yard kickoff return for a score earlier in the fourth quarter. The Cowboys missed a field goal, had another blocked and had a punt blocked. "What a wild special teams moment of blocked punts, kicks, kickoff returns, blocked field goals, just a number of things going to that spot," Commanders coach Dan Quinn said. Washington (7-5) was a 10 1/2-point favorite over the undermanned Cowboys (4-7) but ended up losing a third straight game. The Houston Texans were 8-point favorites against the lowly Tennessee Titans and let the game come down to Ka'imi Fairbairn missing a 28-yard field goal that would have tied it with just under two minutes left. C.J. Stroud threw two interceptions, was sacked four times and the Texans (7-5) committed 11 penalties, including an illegal shift that negated a go-ahead 33-yard TD pass to Nico Collins on the drive that ended with Fairbairn's miss in the 32-27 loss. The Titans (3-8) averaged just 17 points per game before putting 32 on the scoreboard against Houston's defense that entered No. 4 in the league. "We didn't do anything well enough to win this game," Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said. "Out of all the positives that we did have, there were way too many negatives. Too many negative plays. Score, get a penalty, get touchdowns called back. Get penalties on special teams. Just way too many negative plays defensively, like unexplainable explosives for touchdowns. We just didn't play good across the board." The San Francisco 49ers didn't have quarterback Brock Purdy, star edge rusher Nick Bosa and All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams against Green Bay. That was no excuse for their undisciplined performance. The Niners committed nine penalties and their tackling was shoddy in a 38-10 loss to the Packers. The defending NFC champions are 5-6 with a trip to Buffalo (9-2) coming up. They're still only one game behind Seattle and Arizona in the NFC West. "I'm really not concerned right now about how many guys were missing. We didn't play good enough, so that's not a factor. But, when you are missing some guys, you do have to be better. When you have those penalties and we didn't stop the run like we did and we had those three turnovers in the second half, that's how you get embarrassed." Coming off their first loss of the season, the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs needed Patrick Mahomes' heroics on the final drive to beat Carolina 30-27. Mahomes ran 33 yards to set up Spencer Schrader's 31-yard field goal as time expired. Kansas City had 10 penalties, including a pass interference that gave the Panthers (3-8) another chance to make the 2-point conversion that tied the game with 1:46 remaining. On defense, the Chiefs (10-1) suddenly shaky unit gave up 334 total yards against Bryce Young and an offense that entered last in the NFL. "We've got to do better. We're doing good in the red zone but that's only a third of the field," Chiefs safety Bryan Cook said. "We will go back and look at the film to see what we're doing week to week, and see the tendencies that we're giving up, and just move forward from there. At the end of the day, we're all vets in the room for the most part. ... got to go back to the drawing board and see what we're doing and correct it from there." The Vikings allowed the Bears to recover an onside kick with 21 seconds left and Caleb Williams followed with a 27-yard pass to D.J. Moore to set up Cairo Santos' tying 48-yard field goal. But Minnesota won in overtime, 30-27. The Chiefs and Vikings overcame their mistakes in narrow victories. The Commanders, Texans and 49ers couldn't. They have to be better down the stretch to make a playoff run.

Taiwan has blocked Uber Technologies' $950 million purchase of Delivery Hero's Foodpanda business on the island because of concerns it would be anti-competitive, the Fair Trade Commission (FTC) said on Wednesday. Uber and Foodpanda did not immediately respond to requests for comment outside regular business hours. Delivery Hero said in a statement Uber may either appeal the commission's decision or terminate the acquisition. In a media briefing, the commission said the merger's negative impact would outweigh the overall economic benefits, and corrective measures would not be able to address the competition concerns. "In the food delivery platform market, UberEats' main competitive pressure comes from Foodpanda. The merger would eliminate this competitive pressure," Chen Chih-min, Vice Chairman of Taiwan's FTC, said. "Post-merger, UberEats would be less constrained by competition, giving it more incentive to raise prices for consumers and even increase commissions for restaurant operators." Chen added that post-merger, the combined market share of both companies in Taiwan would exceed 90%. Uber and Delivery Hero announced in May the Taiwan deal that included a separate agreement for Uber to purchase $300 million worth of newly issued shares of the German food delivery firm. The US company expected the acquisition to contribute at least $150 million annually to the adjusted core profit of its delivery business within a year of the deal's closing, which was seen as likely in the first half of 2025. Online food delivery platforms represent a small fraction of Taiwan's competitive food delivery market. Foodpanda's operations on the island were break-even in terms of adjusted core earnings for the 12 months ended March 31, 2024, the companies said.
