Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can rest assured his side will be in the quarter-finals provided UEFA choose to keep the competition alive. Coronavirus fears could curtail this season’s tournament and was also the reason United played in an empty stadium. Odion Ighalo smashed home the opener with a blistering strike that came off the underside of the bar. Dan James ended his goal drought with the second before Juan Mata made it 3-0 thanks to a lovely ball from Fred. Bruno Fernandes was again a star and came off with 20 minutes to go, but his performance was full of flicks, tricks and star quality. Mason Greenwood, a late introduction, scored number four before a speculative effort from Andreas Pereira capped a stellar night.

Statewide—Many schools have started the new academic calendar, making this the first school year under the new state budget passed by the Indiana General Assembly. K-12 support was increased by $763 million, including a $20 million increase for school safety grants.During the 2019 legislative session, lawmakers created measures that would increase school bus safety, expand workforce development opportunities, enhance security procedures in schools and strengthen students’ civics knowledge.Here are some changes you can expect to see as students return to school.Schools are now required to minimize bus stops that make children cross highways in high-speed areas.High schools can replace standard high school courses with career and technical education and work-based courses, programs or experiences of similar subject matter and equal or greater rigor, helping more students graduate with real-world work experience.Indiana public schools and accredited nonpublic schools must conduct at least one active-shooter drill each year.Public schools will now administer the U.S. citizenship test as part of the required high school curriculum. Students are not required to pass the test, but it’s our hope this will help increase students’ awareness of how our country operates.
The build up to Di Canio’s first match as successor to Martin O’Neill was overshadowed by debate over the controversial Italian’s character after his 2005 statement proclaiming to be a “fascist but not a racist” and he could not prevent Sunderland’s winless run extending to nine games. Chelsea trailed at half-time to Cesar Azpilicueta’s own goal, but Matt Kilgallon deflected into his own net following a surging run by substitute Fernando Torres and Branislav Ivanovic directed a David Luiz shot into the Sunderland goal to put the Blues in front after 55 minutes. Paolo Di Canio’s debut match as Sunderland boss ended in a 2-1 defeat as Chelsea returned to the top four of the Barclays Premier League with a third successive win at Stamford Bridge. Press Association
It proved to be the winner as Chelsea, who beat Manchester United on Monday and Rubin Kazan on Thursday, returned above Tottenham on goal difference and into third place. Sunderland were playing on the counter attack and Stephane Sessegnon found Adam Johnson, whose curling shot was blocked by Luiz before Craig Gardner was booked for a scissor-like late lunge on Demba Ba. It might have been red. Eden Hazard’s tame header from Oscar’s cross was easily saved by Simon Mignolet, before Sunderland broke and claimed a 45th-minute corner when Luiz deflected the recalled Connor Wickham’s shot wide. Johnson’s set-piece was flicked on by John O’Shea and Azpilicueta could only deflect the ball into his own net. Having been animated throughout, pacing in his technical area, Di Canio’s celebration was muted. Torres came on at half-time for Ba, whose movement was limited after Gardner’s challenge, and his first act led to Chelsea’s equaliser. Buoyed by his double against Rubin, Torres scythed in off the left wing and found Oscar, who, for once, lost control of the ball as Mignolet raced to meet him. The ball ricocheted off the goalkeeper and hit Kilgallon before spinning into the far corner. Chelsea also benefited from good fortune for their second after 55 minutes. Azpilicueta’s long-range effort deflected out for a corner and Wickham failed to clear. Luiz struck a low shot which Ivanovic cleverly turned in with a back-heel. The relief was palpable as the Blues fans sang in support of their rejuvenated team. Hazard headed over from an Oscar cross before Gardner caught Luiz as another meaty tackle left a Chelsea player requiring treatment. Another moment of worry for Chelsea came when Johnson went by Mikel and curled a shot around the post. Di Canio’s former West Ham team-mate Frank Lampard was introduced for the final skirmishes but Sunderland could not find an equaliser. 
Eight University of Wisconsin student athletes from five different sports went bald April 15.One of those student athletes, senior kicker Andrew Endicott from the football team, said his new hair — or lack thereof — felt great, but something else about the experience felt even better.“The haircut feels good and seeing the kids smile feels even better,” Endicott said. “I am honored to do it and I really have a lot of fun doing it.”The fresh trims came as part of the the Badgers Give Back campaign’s third-annual Badgers Go Bald event at Camp Randall Stadium. The event gives UW student athletes the opportunity to support children who are currently battling cancer at the American Family Children’s Hospital in Madison.In addition to Endicott, the other student athlete’s involved were quarterback Bart Houston, long-snapper Connor Udelhoven and offensive lineman Matt Miller from football, along with Andy Hamilton from men’s rowing, Rylan Lubeck from wrestling, Ali Nageotte from women’s golf and Rachel Fledderman from women’s track and field.Marissa Haegele/The Badger HeraldFor all the student athletes, the experience proved to be consistently humbling.“It’s definitely a humbling experience,” Miller said. “To be able to have some fun with them, even for a little bit here, to just see those smiles and just share a moment with them is very special.”In addition to being able to give haircuts, families and children who attended were also given a tour of Camp Randall Stadium. This included stops in the stadium’s box suites, student athlete recreation room, football locker room and then finally a chance to step on the field.For Miller in particular, the event was a reminder of just how lucky he is.“Watching these kids do this, it’s just awesome and it makes you feel great to get them here to see Camp Randall,” Miller said. “When they see it and their eyes light up and they smile and they run around and get excited, it really makes you realize how blessed we are and how good we’ve really got it.”Marissa Haegele/The Badger HeraldUpon rounding the final corner of the tunnel and seeing the sunshine peaking through once again, the excitement level rose. Every child who was present got a taste for what it must feel like to come out onto the field on Saturdays, shoulder to shoulder with the Badgers.After taking the field, many of the children got the chance to catch touchdown passes from senior quarterback Houston, while others emulated previous Badger rushing greats, by running 100 yard touchdown scores up and down the field.The sheer happiness and joy bouncing from smile to smile around every activity and adventure Friday evening was proof enough that the opportunity for these children to bond and laugh with some of their Badger heroes meant something truly special to everyone.“It feels great to interact with these kids,” Miller said. “They have gone through more in their life than anyone should ever have to deal with, and then even after all of that, for them to smile and laugh as much as they do while they run around, it is pretty inspirational to me.”
A High Court judge has ordered former T&T government minister Jack Warner to repay TT$1.5 million to the owner of a local company which was used to finance the 2007 campaign of the United National Congress (UNC).The funds, which was organized by businessman and UNC financier, Krishna Lalla, was paid to Warner by the technology company Real Time Systems Ltd over the period of two months.Warner promised to repayLalla, who also owned Super Industrial Services Ltd (SIS), told the court that Warner had promised to repay him by February 2008 as he was expected to receive US$10 million from the International Football Federation (FIFA), of which he was then vice president.Claims funds were a donation, not a loan However, Warner, who served at one time as national security minister in the UNC-led People’s Partnership government between 2010-15, argued in court that the money was not loaned to him but was donated by Lalla for the financing of the UNC 2007 general election campaign.Proper regulatory framework needed In delivering his judgement on Tuesday, Justice Frank Seepersad called for proper regulatory framework for election campaign financing noting that in a developing democracy, courts should not have to decide whether sums of money received were spoils of campaign financing.“The veil of secrecy and anonymity must be removed and there should be full disclosure of financial contributors, with caps placed on the amounts which can be received by a political party from individuals, companies or institutions.”Justice Seepersad said for far too long election campaign financing has played a central and dominant role in politics. He said taxpayers’ money and resources do not belong to any political party and cannot be used to court a party’s financiers. The judge also ordered that Warner pay interests and costs.

Following the Facebook and ESL streaming agreement that hit the news last week, we spoke to Superdata CEO and Co-Founder Joost van Dreunen to gather his thoughts on the matter. Superdata is a research and analytics firm which compiles reports on the gaming and interactive media industries, including esports. Joost van Dreunen, SuperdataEsports Insider: Were you at all surprised at the extent of this deal? Is this a ‘bigger win’ for Facebook or ESL?Joost: No, it’s no surprise. ESL has managed to become a clear leader in esports. After selling off a majority share to MTG, it validated the space but also reduced its number of available revenue streams. By partnering with Facebook it gains access to a broader audience and increase the return on its many events. In the broader context of Facebook and its relationship to content providers–video, news, etc.–it is notable that the social media giant is seeking out exclusivity. This suggests that Facebook currently looks at esports as a critical component to its video offering, as the audience tends to highly dedicated and strong advocates, allowing an even broader group of viewers to familiarize themselves with esports. That said, it is clearly a bigger win for ESL which now gains access to a much broader, mainstream audience, which will allow it to sell ad space for more to a broader range of sponsors.Esports Insider: What’s the significance of the streams being immediately available in six languages ?Joost: Esports is built on the popularity of specific games. Titles like League of Legends, CS:GO, and Hearthstone enjoy a global audience. Similar to say soccer, which also caters to a global audience, it means that streams need to be made accessible in different languages to build audiences across the world.Esports Insider: Do you expect the likes of Facebook and more to team up with ESL and teams to offer more localised content going forward?Joost: Absolutely. Local advertising is a key component to the traditional sports business. Consider for instance that a local sports stadium generates well over half of its revenues from local sponsors. By leveraging Facebook’s user data it will be possible to attract smaller sponsorships that operate locally and thereby expand the available airtime.Esports Insider: Thoughts on the response from other competitors?Joost: Competitors like Twitter and Twitch will likely follow the example and look to acquire, either through purchase or license, content that will help grow their respective audiences. It is too early to expect major exclusivity deals, but that inevitably will come down the line.
