Domestic stalemates with Villarreal and Las Palmas were followed by Borussia Dortmund twice coming from behind to claim a 2-2 Champions League draw with the European champion in midweek. Madrid’s lead in Spain’s top flight is down to one point ahead of the weekend matches and, although Zidane is happy with his team’s performances overall, he feels it could do with a ruthless streak. “To win we have to create chances,” he told a pre-match news conference....

The world governing body stripped Zimbabwe Cricket (ZC) of full member status in July after state-owned enterprise the Sports and Recreation Commission (SRC) suspended the board. SRC acted after issuing a directive that the governing body’s elective annual general meeting would be suspended amid allegations over the nomination process and the violation of ZC’s constitution, along with “various other controversies”. The ICC has now cleared Zimbabwe to regain member status following board meetings in Dubai....

After drawing level, Zidane’s men took advantage of the 10-man Sevilla as Dani Carvajal made a brilliant recovery, followed by a solo run and a neat finish which sealed the tie for Real Madrid. Zinedine Zidane lavished praise on Ramos as he guided the Blancos to a win without Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Toni Kroos. Besides the equalizer, Sergio Ramos was denied a goal in extra time as well....

When he was asked about what he told the players, Zidane said: “My first words were important for the players, bearing in mind that we trained in front of the fans. They were simple: I was really happy to be with them and a new adventure was starting. “We have great goals but we will do everything to meet those goals.” Zidane was then asked what kind of football the club would play during his tenure and he said it would be ‘beautiful attacking football’....

Milan ended a miserable run of three straight games without a goal with a 2-0 away win on Saturday, Ibrahimovic scoring his side’s second midway through the second half with an excellent first-time finish. A deflected strike from Rafael Leao had given Stefano Pioli’s men the lead just after half-time. Ibrahimovic, who came off the bench in the 0-0 San Siro draw with Sampdoria, is saving his biggest celebration until he scores on home soil....

The France international suffered cruciate knee ligament damage during a 1-1 Premier League draw with Manchester United on Feb. 7. It has been a long road back to fitness for the 21-year-old, who had nailed down a regular role in the Blues’ starting lineup prior to picking up an unfortunate injury – one which also dashed his Euro 2016 dreams. Zouma was able to return to training over the summer, allowing him to make an early impression on incoming manager Antonio Conte....

Once the cut was set at 8 under, the third round began and ended on the same day. With the tournament finally back on track, the team of Trey Mullinax and Scott Stallings is back atop the leaderboard. But, they are not alone. The pair had the advantage after a shortened first round Thursday but were edged out by the field after Round 2. They fired off eight birdies Saturday, including three in their first five holes, and Mullinax carded the team’s only eagle to move back into first place (23 under)....

The variant, also known as B.1.351 or 501.V2, has led to concern amongst scientists that it may pose some level of resistance to current vaccines. In addition, the South Africa strain also appears to spread more easily than other variants. In a press conference yesterday, Cuomo warned New Yorkers it is “more important than ever” to follow COVID guidelines, including wearing masks, staying socially distant and washing hands. He said: “We are in a race right now, between our ability to vaccinate and these variants which are actively trying to proliferate, and we will only win that race if we stay smart and disciplined....

Marketed under the brand name Retrovir and others, ZDV is available as a generic and is also found in the fixed-dose combination drugs Combivir (zidovudine and lamivudine) and Trizivir (abacavir, zidovudine, and lamivudine). While still important, ZDV is no longer used as a first-line treatment of HIV but rather in subsequent therapies when other treatments have failed. Part of the reason for this is that newer antiretroviral agents are less prone to drug resistance and are, therefore, better able to overcome drug-resistant strains of the virus....

10 Who Does Link Love? And Why Doesn’t Mipha’s Spirit Visit Her Dang Dad Already? There are tons and tons of NPC’s in Breath of the Wild, but none as cool as the Four Champions. Each of them is just so hardcore in their own way (save for maybe Revali). We as the player get to see the Champions before they passed a couple of times, thanks to flashbacks in both the main game and DLC....

The Legend of Zelda has a somewhat complicated history when it comes to putting magic in the player’s hands, but Breath of the Wild may be the right time to take a new step in this direction. Past Zelda precedent offers plenty of inspiration for a magic system in BotW, and the current version of Hyrule already hides so many magical secrets that it wouldn’t be all that hard for Link to learn new arcane skills....

The Breath of the Wild 2 gameplay reveal trailer from E3 2021 offered fans their first look at how the upcoming sequel will keep things fresh. It takes some inspiration from Skyward Sword by lifting chunks of land into the air that Link can both fall down onto or phase up through. With the game’s map of Hyrule changing, this offers Nintendo the chance to expand Link’s repertoire so he can feel even more free than before....

Now, however, months removed from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s initial launch, talk of the game has now moved towards its future, with the first DLC for the game coming later this week. To commemorate the new content, Nintendo has promised to provide one blog post on the game for the next five days, with each post providing insight into the development of Breath of the Wild’s DLC....

In a post on Reddit, a user known as TetraBall shared an image of a large number of games they had managed to collect. However, this was no ordinary collection, as it featured a Zelda theme. In addition, another aspect of the collection that made it stand out was its sheer size. Nearly every game in the series was on display, from newer releases such as Breath of the Wild and Cadence of Hyrule to retro offerings like Link to the Past and Majora’s Mask....

“The First World War claimed millions of lives. The Second World War claimed tens of millions of them. There will be no third world war. It is not a trilogy,” the Ukrainian leader told the 80th Golden Globes ceremony via video message. Zelensky told the audience “it is already clear who will win,” adding the “tide is turning” even though the war “is not yet over.” “I can tell you who was the best in the previous year....

Before being elected president of Ukraine, former actor and comedian Zelensky played a high school teacher who unexpectedly became president in the political satire. His role as the character Vasyl Petrovych Goloborodko directly led to his run for office in real life and in 2019, less than a month after the TV show came to an end, he became Ukraine’s president. Netflix announced that the political comedy series is back and the first season is available to watch now....

Mircea Lucescu departed the club last month after he could only lead them to third place in the Russian Premier League and elimination from the last 32 of the Europa League. Zidane - A Galactico for Galacticos And Zenit have now turned to Mancini, a league winner in Italy with Inter and England with Manchester City. Since he was sacked by City in 2013, Mancini has led Galatasaray, winning the Turkish Cup, before returning to Inter in 2014....

SCLC is the most aggressive type of lung cancer, affecting over 30,000 people each year in the United States. Lurbinectedin works by disrupting the DNA and the function of cancer cells, causing the tumor cells to die. Zepzelca is not on the National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health (NIOSH) list. It is, however, a cytotoxic (toxic to cells) and hazardous drug. This injectable is only available with a prescription and may only be administered by a trained healthcare provider....

Sao Paulo, Nov 22 (IANS) Football legend Pele has said Lionel Messi does not yet deserve to be rated ahead of former France midfielder Zinedine Zidane. Speaking during an event in Sao Paulo Thursday, the three-time World Cup winner claimed the 26-year-old Argentine had benefited from playing alongside his Barcelona teammates, Xinhua reported. Asked if Messi, a four-time winner of the Ballon d’Or, was among the best of all time, Pele replied: “He still needs to surpass Zidane, who I think was better....
