Both sides need a positive early result with world No.2 Belgium also in Group F and looming as strong favourites to top the section. Croatia have arrived in Qatar on the back of a five-game winning run that included a 1-0 victory against France in June. Morocco beat Georgia 3-0 in a friendly just prior to the World Cup but they may struggle to match it with a Croatian side in form and spurred on by their 2018 heartbreak....

The Nigeria international took his tally to five goals in 15 league games this campaign, same amount he managed for the enitre 2016-17 season. Senegal’s Mamadou Sylla ran through the Essevee’s defence to set up Simon for a cool finish in the 29th minute. The hosts, who had lost their six previous games across all competitions, struggled to get an equaliser as the 22-year-old’s first half effort stood as the only difference....

The Belgium star has since taken his tally to 96 in just 228 appearances in England’s top division and is well on track to becoming just the fifth man to reach 100 in the competition.

Engebrecht told Newsweek on Wednesday that while the president’s empathy was “very refreshing,” she wasn’t looking for a favor that only benefited her son. “We’re talking about a system that has problems here,” she said. “We weren’t looking for a handout.

Like many black comics, he was propelled out of obscurity in 1998 by appearances on HBO’s “Def Comedy Jam.” That landed him small parts in “House Party III” and “Panther,” but it was the 1995 ‘hood comedy “Friday” that caught people’s attention. Audiences showed up to see the top-billed rapper Ice Cube, but they exited talking about Tucker; his hilariously profane turn as a drug dealer who’d rather smoke up than sell propelled the lowbudget film to a $80 million gross....

United produced a performance typical of a Mourinho-led team on the road, stifling its in-form opponents to earn a share of the spoils Monday. Liverpool, which had won four successive Premier League fixtures heading into the contest, was frustrated by United from the opening whistle, though the host was twice denied by the brilliance of goalkeeper David de Gea in the second half. United ended the match with just 35 percent possession - its lowest since Opta began recording data in 2003-04 - but Mourinho disputed the stat post-game as he shifted the focus on Liverpool....

While this isn’t a clear motive, the NTSB wants to reinterview the witness.

If ever Zimbabwe needed a savior it’s now. An inflation rate that tops 100,000 percent has destroyed the economy. One in five adults in Zimbabwe is infected with HIV; women have the lowest life expectancy—34 years—in the world. And at 84, Mugabe refuses to ease the grip in which he’s held the country since independence in 1980. Like dictators everywhere, he’s long been sustained by cronies who don’t much care what happens to the nation as long as they get their cut....
