Liverpool’s habit of conceding goals from positions of strength caused them problems again as they found themselves hanging on for a 2-1 win in the 247th Merseyside derby.A fifth successive league victory kept the champions in an unassailable position at the top of the table but, while there was no need for any late drama of recent matches, they never appear more vulnerable than when 2-0 up.Three times in six matches this season they have been pegged back from that position only to score added-time winners, but when Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike scored inside 29 minutes at home to…

Liverpool stay perfect in the Premier League after beating Everton 2-1 in a tense Merseyside derby to extend David Moyes’ miserable record at Anfield.Moyes would have been hoping it was 21st time lucky having never won a Premier League match on Liverpool turf, despite trying with four different clubs. His agonising wait goes on. In a break with recent practice, Liverpool took command of the game early, scoring via an instinctive Ryan Gravenberch effort from Mohamed Salah’s majestic delivery in the 10th minute – their earliest home goal since September 2023.

Lyndon Dykes’ late goal enabled Birmingham to bounce back from successive defeats and beat visitors Swansea 1-0.The Scotland international, subject of a deadline day enquiry from Hibernian, produced a trademark header from fellow substitute Patrick Roberts’ cross four minutes into added-time to finally end the Swans’ stubborn second-half resistance. Dykes was only introduced from the bench with a few moments to go but managed to outjump a tiring visiting rearguard to register the hosts’ second home win of the Sky Bet Championship season.Alan Sheehan’s men had been in determined mood throughout and looked to have done enough to earn a…

A faultless display from Coventry’s Carl Rushworth frustrated Leicester as the Sky Bet Championship rivals drew 0-0 at the King Power Stadium.The on-loan Brighton goalkeeper made nine saves, including a crucial stop from Leicester forward Stephy Mavididi, who had the best chance of the afternoon for Marti Cifuentes’ hosts. The result leaves both clubs well placed in the table, with each aiming for promotion this season.The game – dubbed the M69 derby – promised much, but offered nothing by way of goals and it will be Frank Lampard’s visitors who will be the happier of the two teams. Leicester started…

The lively Koki Saito pulled the ball back from the right and Lewis Baker, in trying to clear the danger, inadvertently teed up Vale, who sent a precise left-footed strike into the far corner.Then, in stoppage time, Liam Morrison superbly prevented a Stoke equaliser by clearing Aaron Cresswell’s shot off the line after goalkeeper Paul Nardi had flapped at Sorba Thomas’…

WASHINGTON (AP) — At one of his final rallies before the 2024 election, then-candidate Donald Trump warned that Black Americans were losing their jobs in droves and that things would get even worse if he did not return to the White House.“You should demand that they give you the numbers of how many Black people are going to lose their job,” Trump said. “The African American population, they’re getting fired at numbers that we have never seen before.”But with Trump back in office since January, an already fragile financial situation for Black Americans has worsened. Upset by inflation and affordability…

Sep 20, 2025, 06:21 AM ETManchester United director of football Jason Wilcox has admitted there is no “quick fix” to the club’s issues and said he “prays we get the opportunity to turn it around.”Wilcox joined United in 2024 amid sweeping changes to the leadership structure but Ruben Amorim’s side still continue to struggle on the pitch, dropping to 14th in the Premier League after the 3-0 defeat to rivals Manchester City last weekend.That followed a miserable 2024-25 campaign, and co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe flew in for discussions with the under-pressure Amorim, as well as Wilcox and CEO Omar Berrada,…

NEW YORK (AP) — Luigi Mangione’s lawyers urged a judge on Saturday to bar federal prosecutors from seeking the death penalty in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, arguing that authorities prejudiced his case by turning his arrest into a “Marvel movie” spectacle and by publicly declaring their desire to see him executed.Fresh from a legal victory that eliminated terrorism charges in Mangione’s state murder case, his lawyers are now fighting to have his federal case dismissed, seizing on U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi’s declaration prior to his April indictment that capital punishment is warranted for a “premeditated, cold-blooded…
