The 21-year-old forward joined Chris Hughton’s side until the end of the season on Monday and he will hope to play a part as the Seagulls plot promotion to the top flight. Last summer Akpom featured in a skill session with FFDTV and Brighton fans can get a sense of the attacker’s impressive technique in the video below ahead of his potential debut on Thursday against Huddersfield Town. The England Under-21 international showcases some amazing close control and cool dribbling prowess before nestling a shot into the top corner....

REPORT: Italy cruise past Uruguay The Atletico Madrid centre-back lined up at the heart of his country’s defence as they took on Italy, but it soon became a night to forget for the 22-year-old. Despite Lorenzo Insigne’s pinpoint ball over the top finding Andrea Belotti, the Torino striker’s poor control looked to have allowed Gimenez to clear the danger.

The fate of Liverpool’s Champions League campaign rests on the result of Tuesday’s must-win Group C clash against Napoli at Anfield, with last season’s runners-up facing the prospect of elimination. There have been suggestions a group-stage exit could be a blessing in disguise for Liverpool, allowing Jurgen Klopp’s Premier League leaders to focus on domestic honours as the Reds eye their first league title since 1990. However, Liverpool centre-back Van Dijk dismissed the suggestion on the eve of the blockbuster fixture....

Gerhardsson had overseen his side beat South Africa 3-0 in the international friendly played at the Cape Town Stadium. Banyana captain Janine Van Wyk who plies her trade in the US for Houston Dash in the National Women’s Soccer League by virtue, being the only women footballer in the country playing in a professional league, also echoed in Gerhardsson ‘s words by demanding to see more Banyana players in professional leagues across the world....

Los Blancos returned to duty having scored just once in their previous three LaLiga matches, but France international Varane netted either side of half-time to put them firmly in control against Jose Bordalas’ men. Luka Modric added a third deep into additional time to wrap up Madrid’s biggest league win since November 9, and Zidane said his side’s patience had paid off in the derby fixture. “I already said that you have to be calm in front of goal,” the Madrid coach told reporters....

It may seem that many within the gaming community haven’t heard of Various Daylife, given that the title was exclusively released for Apple Arcade back in 2019. However, Square Enix seemed to spare no cost with the production of the mobile title back then as it utilized key members from the development team of its other popular titles like Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler to create the game. With the unexpected release of Various Daylife on Switch, the company seems to be fully committed to giving its fanbase access to its non-Final Fantasy titles through one gaming platform or another....

With the likes of de Leede and Boissevain in their ranks, Voorburg would be hoping for a win in this fixture, although that is easier said than done. Excelsior 20 also has a good roster in its ranks with one of the biggest names in Netherlands cricket - Ben Cooper set to don their jersey on Wednesday....

The Venom films are in a unique place in the world of comic book adaptations, being apart from the Marvel Cinematic Universe but still adapting Marvel characters. This leaves them with a slightly different list to draw from, so when populating their worlds, it helps to pick unique, varied, and sometimes lesser-known characters. Sometimes it takes the eye of a fan to recognize the tease. RELATED: Venom: Let There Be Carnage – 10 Things You Didn’t Know About Cletus Kasady...

Venom: Let There Be Carnage is the sequel to Sony’s 2018 film Venom. Based on the Marvel Comics Spider-Man villain of the same name, the film starred Hardy as Eddie Brock, an ambitious investigative reporter who becomes merged with an alien symbiote called Venom. The film wasn’t exactly a critical darling and was mocked by many fans, but it has also developed a kind of ironic appreciation for its ridiculous plot and Hardy’s hilarious performance....

Councilman Adam Roof, who wrote the resolution in the aim of creating a more inclusive and engaged community, argued that since local government impacts every citizen, then every citizen within the community should have voting rights. He argued that this was in step with Burlington’s values, and pointed out that it was in line with the already-approved Diversity and Equity Strategic Plan. “The main goal of the city’s Diversity and Equity Strategic Plan from 2014 is to create a more inclusive and engaged community, which is critical because we know that broad participation in the democratic process strengthens the entirety of the community,” said Roof to WCAX-TV....

As posted by user @TheFigen_ on Twitter on October 24, the eerie phenomenon appeared as two circles of bright light, hovering in the sky in front of skiers on top of the mountain. One of the circles was inside the other, and each circle had brighter spots of light at the top-, bottom-, left- and right-most points. This is what’s known as a solar halo, and the bright spots of light are “sundogs,” both rarely seen phenomena that are only spotted in cold environments....

A botched Kimi Raikkonen pit stop saw the Finn released too early, his left-rear wheel striking the leg of the mechanic, who was immediately taken to hospital. The incident occurred as Ferrari pondered how best to cope with Mercedes’ one-stop strategy, with Silver Arrows pair Valtteri Bottas and Lewis Hamilton switching to the medium compound after seeing Vettel and Raikkonen given the shorter-life soft tyre. Raikkonen’s second stop - which led to his retirement from the race - indicated Ferrari were perhaps moving to a split strategy, with Vettel being left to manage his tyres to the end of the race....

New CW: Bow-tied rectitude compensates for Slick Willie. C. Powell Military chief said to be a closet Dem....

Belarussian Azarenka , who would have been seeded six at the championships, has not played since retiring from a first-round match at the French Open last month.

Victory coach Kevin Muscat underlined the importance of Williams’ versatility after confirming the ex-Perth Glory defender has joined the Big V. After a somewhat tumultuous year with his hometown club, Williams has decided to move east and the 28-year-old, who can play at centre-back, full-back and in midfield, is likely to anchor Victory’s defence next term after the release of Alan Baro and Nick Ansell last week. “We’ve had really positive discussions with Rhys and we’re thrilled to officially welcome him to the club,” Muscat said in a statement on Monday....
