EPL: Carrick fights for Man Utd job ahead of international break

Michael Carrick may be in charge of Manchester United for the last time when they face Aston Villa on Sunday, despite a dramatic 3-2 Champions League win over Roma that ended a nine-game winless run. United could be bottom of the Premier League by kick-off, and the international break will give the club’s hierarchy time to consider its options; Villa manager Unai Emery is reportedly close to signing a new deal. Manchester City will try to avoid a third straight league defeat against Nottingham Forest and keep pace with Arsenal, while Tottenham have climbed to mid-table after three consecutive league wins under Roberto De Zerbi.

Ryan Mendes case: Woman who accused Cape Verde captain of rape charged with making a false statement

New Zealand police have ended the rape investigation involving Cape Verde captain Ryan Mendes and charged the woman who accused him with making a false statement. The 40-year-old is due to appear in court next week under New Zealand’s Crimes Act. She had alleged that Mendes forced his way into her Auckland hotel room on March 27, after she was hired as an interpreter for the Cape Verde delegation during the FIFA Series, and provided police with photographs of her injuries. The investigation lasted more than six months; Mendes, 36, played in all three group-stage matches as Cape Verde reached the World Cup knockout stage.

Mbappé Boycott: Real Madrid’s Win over Racing Divides Weibo Users

Real Madrid announced its 3-0 win over Racing de Santander on Weibo, prompting sharply divided reactions from Chinese users, ranging from dismissal to newfound support for the club. Kylian Mbappé scored from the penalty spot in the 11th minute, while sports site Dongqiudi had removed him from its pre-match lineup with the comment, “This person does not exist.” Neither public broadcaster CCTV nor streaming platform Migu showed the match, and Migu also removed earlier Real Madrid highlights and replays from its catalogue. The dispute stems from Mbappé joking about a meme that called Mao Zedong a dictator, despite apologies from the player, Real Madrid and La Liga.

Feutchine has been preparing for Rwanda since September 30 and is tracking changes to the Rwandan squad, which added ten new players to its 28-man list. He urged his players not to underestimate their opponent after reviewing match footage.
