Inter claimed a 1-1 Derby d Italia draw at Juventus and Roma triumphed amid controversy as Serie A began 2015 in entertaining fashion.
Carlos Tevez had looked set to again be the scourge of his former Manchester City coach Roberto Mancini when putting Juve ahead after five minutes, but Mauro Icardi secured Inter a point just after the hour-mark.
Mancini famously rowed with Tevez on the touchline in a 2011-12 UEFA Champions League match against Bayern Munich, and the Argentina international appeared ecstatic to steer Juve into an early lead after fine play by Arturo Vidal.
Icardi levelled with a clever finish in the 64th minute, but Inter s chances of stealing a win ultimately vanished when Mateo Kovacic earned a late red card for a strong tackle on Stephan Lichts…
Oceania champions Auckland City will not be overawed when they kick off their Club World Cup campaign in Japan on Thursday.
They should be buoyed by their 2009 Club World Cup heroics and New Zealand s unbeaten run at the FIFA World Cup in South Africa, according to coach Ramon Tribulietx.
The New Zealanders face Japanese champions Kashiwa Reysol in Thursday s opener where they are the underdogs to earn a place in the quarter-final against Mexican club Monterrey.
However, Barcelona-born Tribulietx, who was an assistant coach at Auckland when they finished fifth at the 2009 Club World Cup in UAE with wins over Al Wahda and TP Mazembe, said his side believed they could match it with Kashiwa.
The main thing you can take out of that (2009 s fifth-place finis…
David Alaba has warned Bayern Munich not to underestimate a wounded Werder Bremen when they begin their Bundesliga title defence on Friday.
Bremen suffered a shock DFB-Pokal first-round exit at the hands of third-tier Sportfreunde Lotte on Sunday, with Andre Dej netting the winner in a 2-1 victory.
Holders Bayern breezed into round two with a 5-0 victory over Carl Zeiss Jena and will head into Friday s match in buoyant mood having won their last 13 encounters with Bremen in all competitions, with no goals conceded in their last five meetings.
Alaba, however, says his side must not allow complacency to affect their performance as they aim to make a winning start in their quest for a fifth league title in a row.
They will work even harder, especially after…
Gareth Bale says he couldn t care less that Paul Pogba s move from Juventus to Manchester United eclipsed the fee Real Madrid paid for his signature in 2013.
Bale s reported €100million switch from Tottenham to the Santiago Bernabeu was surpassed by United s capture of Pogba in August for a fee which could rise to €110m.
No longer being the most expensive signing in world football is of no concern for the Welshman, though.
I m not fussed and I couldn t care less. None of the players have pulled my leg about it, Bale said.
The 27-year-old is instead focused on what he can do on the pitch, with a potential appearance in the 2017 Champions League final in Cardiff high on his list.
It would be amazing to get there, said Bale. My aim is to wi…

As Vin Diesel once said before The Fast and the Furious life really took hold of him, “Time is fleeting.” It can mean multiple things – life is short, you have limited time, and the seconds, minutes and hours of your life fly by. However, Jonathan Blow’s Braid proves another addendum of time after almost 16 years since its launch on the Xbox 360 – that it’s relative. What was a Game of the Year candidate, an instant classic, a signal flare attracting more attention for indie games (alongside Super Meat Boy and Fez), an example of video games as art, remains so all these things and more.
It’s still a poignant, haunting experience that challenges the traditional notions of gaming while prese…

With rumors circulating for years about a remaster for Guerrilla Games’ Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, it seems an official announcement is coming. The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) in the United States recently rated the title for PS5 and PC.
Little else is known, aside from it being rated “T” for Teen. However, rumors emerged in 2022 about a remaster for the acclaimed 2017 open-world action RPG that allegedly features overhauled textures and animations, improved lighting, graphics modes, accessibility features, and quality-of-life features.
A leaked document subsequently began circulating, further pointing to the title’s existence. Last year, we saw a report alleging Guerrilla isn’t developing the remaster and t…
Ray tracing has been around for a few years now, it’s promised shift in the direction of realism tempered by subpar performance, demands for expensive hardware and an ever-present perception that all ray tracing does it make surfaces shinier. However, its inarguable ray tracing improves visuals, more than in howSports Betting we perceive light rays on-screen but in shadow and reflections too, and how all this lighting interacts with environments.
The technology is steadily improving; performance is still hampered mind, but developers can utilise the tech more efficiently than other techniques like rasterization during the game creation process, with spectacular results now more commonplace t…
Luis Suarez is expecting a big season from strike partner Joao Felix, who he believes will be a match-winner for Atletico Madrid with the help of his team-mates.
Suarez joined Atleti from Barcelona at the start of the campaign, joining Diego Costa and Joao Felix in attack at the Wanda Metropolitano.
The 20-year-old Portugal international is now in his second season at the club, having signed from Benfica as a replacement for Antoine Griezmann in July 2019.
Joao Felix s first term at Atleti did not pan out quite as he might have hoped, scoring just six goals and providing a single assist in 27 LaLiga games.
But 2020-21 is already proving more fruitful as the forward has three goals from just 15 shots and an assist in six league matches.
Joao Felix …
