@Natalyacoyle At the women’s marathon yesterday there was one runner from Bhutan who finished an hour and a half behind 1st, and an hour behind second to last. So running by herself for an hour. For the last 5km or so someone ran in the crowd alongside her holding a Bhutan flag.

@beastieboy07 Nothing wrong with preparing a dustbowl, I’m all for it. But specifically wrecking outside off stump for Australia’s numerous lefties (Warner, Khawaja, Head, Carey, Renshaw, Agar plus the tail) when India have likely no lefties in their top 7 is disgraceful.

@AGBatista4 @Czooba Foden has a gf and a kid as well, with a second on the way now but obviously not at the time. Greenwood was single when it happened. No clue how Foden hasn't been slandered at all for it.

@trackterrors I’m picturing the DTS episode. It’s framed as this whole big Danny Ric farewell episode, heartfelt interviews with him, his family, fellow drivers, etc. highlights reel of his best bits. Then the last scene is him signing a new contract.

@Maxs2Cats @ricciardosbabe DR fans seem to think he has this entitlement to the red bull seat because of what he did SEVEN years ago. Ignoring that he’s 35 and hasn’t even been the better driver in his own car this year. If anyone deserves to replace Checo it’s Tsunoda.

@sycMorphy_ @SiinthAP @FactsWithChest @ic3ebe @ESPNUK @IanDarke So why call it the 'Worst XI' instead of the 'most disappointing XI'? The real worst XI wouldn't have 10/11 players from Top 6 clubs.

Canada are not the victims here. Like it or not - they benefited from NZ’s training session footage being incorporated into their training to prepare.
CANADA 🇨🇦 ⚽️ FOR THE WIN . The defending Olympic champion Canadian women’s soccer team defeats New Zealand 2-1 to open the event. A gutsy victory in the face of adversity. Went down 1-0 early. Never panicked. Massive win after everything that’s happened the last 24 hours.

@timchenne @offbeatorbit Lots of women’s teams have done this in recent years as well. Practically every football team now plays in coloured shorts. NZ’s women wore white shirt, teal shorts and white socks while the men wore the same but with white shorts.

If Nestory scores and Adelaide win… I will buy a shirt with his name on the back.
Nestory Irankunda will depart the A-Leagues with the best highlight reel of any teenager in the competition's history 🔥. Tomorrow night he'll play his final game in the Isuzu UTE A-League against Central Coast Mariners 💪 . 🎟️ Grab your tickets NOW: #ALM
