The France great is one of three finalists for FIFA’s top coaching honour at ‘The Best’ awards, which will be held in London on Monday. 12/1 for Barcelona & Malaga to draw Zidane is expected to claim the title ahead of Chelsea’s Antonio Conte and Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri, who he trumped in the Champions League decider in June. But the Frenchman’s second successive European crown, to go with last season’s La Liga success, is still not enough to convince Zidane of his place at the top....

The 50-year-old has signed a two-year deal to succeed Ernesto Valverde, whose departure after four years in charge was confirmed on Tuesday. “Jose Angel Ziganda will be the new coach of Athletic Club for the next two seasons,” a statement from the La Liga outfit confirmed. Monaco complete Tielemans signing Ziganda will be presented to the media at 1200CET at San Mames on Thursday. He spent seven years with the club as a player between 1991 and 1998 before returning as part of the coaching staff in 2011, following spells in charge of Osasuna and Xerez....

His bowling attack responded to his idea and carved away at the Zimbabwe top-order. Apart from Elton Chigumbura, none of the other batsmen could make a substantial contribution to the team total. On the other hand, Jasprit Bumrah was the pick of the Indian bowlers with his timely strikes while the spinners sustained the pressure admirably. Chasing only 169, the visitors started off in a sedate manner as both openers wanted to get themselves settled before expanding their repertoire....

Eden Hazard only returned to first-team action last month but was unlucky to pick up yet another injury, which kept him on the sidelines for another 20 days. But the international break gave Hazard time to recuperate and he has now returned to full fitness sooner than expected. Eden Hazard wasn’t part of Real Madrid’s matchday squad which defeated Eibar 2-0 in La Liga on Saturday. But as Zidane revealed, Hazard might be back in the team when Liverpool visit the Santiago Bernabeu for the first leg of their UCL quarter-finals tie on Tuesday, April 6....

That document asks Williamson to confirm or deny several interrogatories that, if answered in the affirmative, would admit he knew his family received payments and/or other benefits before and during his attendance at Duke University. The document — which alleges Duke, Nike and Adidas offered said payments and benefits — is part of an ongoing $100 million legal battle between Williamson and Ford, based on a severed contract between the two....

Arsenal youngster Gedion Zelalem has been officially cleared by FIFA to represent the United States internationally, and was added by Ramos to the last open spot on the roster. Sunil Gulati, president of the U.S. Soccer Federation, announced Zelalem’s clearance on Twitter. Zelalem, 18, became a U.S. citizen last year through his parents, a move that was required before he turned 18. With that cleared, Zelalem, though eligible to play for Germany (his birth nation) or Ethiopia (his parents’ birth nation), chose to represent the U....

With a projected release date currently aiming for spring 2023 and arguably a decent amount of details and game footage already out there for Breath of the Wild 2, it seems like a race against time before Nintendo is left in one of two outcomes: either someone leaks the sequel’s title, or the title is revealed too late to build the anticipation for its upcoming launch. As Nintendo projects seem to have a track record for leaks being drip-fed to the fans via credible sources, the argument is strong for Nintendo to just bite the bullet already to preemptively ensure the sequel’s success....

The Wind Waker was originally released in 2003, and was later re-released for the Wii U in 2013. The game featured a character called Beedle, who would sell items from his ship, tracking the player’s purchases on their Member’s Card and offering a nice discount to anyone that provided enough patronage. Beedle provided a useful service in The Wind Waker, and his memorable bursts of dialogue made him a fan favorite character....

Zheng defeated Sloane Stephens on her way to the third round of the China Open last week - a second top-20 win of the year - and continued her form against Duan. Having entered as a wildcard, Duan, who also faced her doubles partner in Guangzhou in this season’s Asian swing, forced a tie-break in the first set, but Zheng - defeated by world number one Ashleigh Barty in Beijing - ultimately came out on top with a 7-6 (7-4) 6-2 triumph....

Ernesto Valverde’s men sealed their procession to the title with a 4-2 win at Deportivo La Coruna last weekend, meaning there is only the usually ample amounts of pride to play for when Barca meet their bitter rivals at Camp Nou. Madrid were greeted on to the field by a guard of honour – a pasillo to give the act its Spanish name – in 2008 by Barca having already been crowned champions and went on to a 4-1 Clasico win at the Santiago Bernabeu....

Setting Up the Zigma Aerio-300 When it comes to smart home devices, we generally have to concede that we’re willing to exchange a little extra setup process to get a more streamlined experience once that setup process is complete. The Zigma Aerio-300 is no exception, so you will need to spend a few minutes connecting the device to the internet. Thankfully, the process isn’t too bad. First, you’ll need to download the Zigma app on your mobile device, and then it’ll guide you through the rest of the procedure....

Ntini’s disappointment Ntini vented his anger saying, “I almost hanged myself. If there was a tomato tree outside I would have hanged myself in that tomato tree.” He also added, “It’s no good. We have experienced players with us who can easily read the game. We were in the perfect position.” Also read: Zimbabwe v India 2016, Stats: Chahal, batsmen hand India easy 8-wicket win over Zimbabwe Zimbabwe’s woes were worsened when experienced campaigner Sean Williams, who came in as a replacement for the injured Craig Ervine, injured his finger during the warm-ups and was unable to bat....

The Pelicans forward was selected with the first overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft after a stunning freshman year at Duke and many expect him to blossom into a superstar. It has been suggested Williamson will only spend a few seasons with New Orleans before leaving to sign with a major market for his prime years. However, Williamson wants to emulate Los Angeles Lakers icon Kobe Bryant and Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki by sticking with one franchise....

The addition of a striker at the club has put question marks over the position of Rooney in the team. But earlier in the summer, the captain cleared up questions over the issue stating that he had discussed it with Mourinho and he’ll be playing in the No. 10 role. Now Zlatan has also given his opinion on what role suits Rooney the best. The Swede complimented the Englishman on MUTV saying,, “I said many years ago the perfect partner for a striker is Wayne Rooney....

Zlatan has already scored 15 goals in 19 appearances for Galaxy this season, with another 5 assists to his name and looks to be in fine form. He seems to have fully recovered from his injury as well. Zlatan recently revealed in an interview with MUTV that he regrets not having joined United earlier. When United were in the United States for their preseason, Zlatan did drop in to meet his old mates....

The 21-year-old claimed his first trophy of 2017 by triumphing 6-3 6-3 after 71 minutes in a contest between compatriots at contrasting stages of their careers. Veteran Kohlschreiber was bidding for a record fourth title at the tournament in the first all-German men’s singles final on the ATP Tour since Florian Mayer defeated Zverev at the Gerry Weber Open in 2016. However, the 34-year-old struggled to make an impact on his opponent’s serve, registering one solitary break early in the second set....
