On a dramatic day in the seaside German town of Weissenhaus, Magnus Carlsen won the FIDE Freestyle Chess World Championship—his 21st World Championship title—after defeating Fabiano Caruana in a four-game finale late on Sunday. Carlsen has five classical World Championships besides six World Rapid Championships and nine World Blitz Championships. Now Carlsen adds a world title in the one format that was missing. “It’s certainly not one of my most convincing wins today,” Carlsen told the YouTube channel of Freestyle Chess after winning the title. “… but it feels great to win on a bit of an off-day. I’m a little disappointed that I couldn’t bring the level that I showed yesterday. It feels great to win but I can do even better.” Caruana, chasing his first ever World Championship crown in any format, had winning positions in three of the four rapid games in the final against Carlsen, but could convert none. The third game between the pair was particularly chastening for the American grandmaster. For, it was there that he held a winning …

Crystal Palace Win First Major Title In 21st Century, Shock Manchester City In FA Cup Final 2025

Crystal Palace Win First Major Title In 21st Century, Shock Manchester City In FA Cup Final 2025

Crystal Palace stunned Manchester City on Saturday to win the FA Cup for the first time as Eberechi Eze sealed a 1-0 victory that piled on the misery for Pep Guardiola’s troubled side. Eze’s early strike rocked City before Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson saved Omar Marmoush’s penalty late in the first half of a dramatic final at Wembley. While Eze’s clinical finish was the culmination of his remarkable rise from rejection by Arsenal, Fulham and Millwall as a youngster, it was Henderson who emerged as Palace’s hero with a series of superb saves. City will protest that Henderson should have been sent off for a first-half handball outside his penalty area. But Henderson made the most of that controversial moment to ensure Palace clinched the first major trophy in their 120-year history and a place in next season’s Europa League. Beaten by Manchester United in their previous FA Cup final appearances in 1990 and 2016, Palace’s shock win was no more than they deserved as City once again imploded in a dismal season …

Days after his 21st birthday Macarton Nickson receives his first India call-up by Manolo Marquez | Football News

Some birthday presents are unforgettable, and for Macarton Nickson, this one tops them all. Just days after turning 21 (his birthday is on March 19), the talented NorthEast United midfielder received a call that every young footballer dreams of — an invitation to join India’s senior national team. Head coach Manolo Marquez has summoned Nickson to the camp in Shillong, where the squad is gearing up for the crucial Asian Cup qualifier against Bangladesh. His selection comes on the heels of a setback for India—star midfielder Brandon Fernandes was ruled out after picking up an injury in a dominant 3-0 friendly win over the Maldives. But while one door closes, another swings wide open, and Nickson is stepping through it with purpose. NorthEast United have been the surprise package of the season. Not only did they lift the prestigious Durand Cup, but they also stormed into the ISL playoffs with a fourth-place finish. While much of the spotlight has been on goal machine Alaaeddine Ajaraie, who set the league ablaze with 23 goals, Nickson has …

Box Office: Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot’s Snow White releases on 21st March; Can Disney’s live action flick REPEAT the theatrics of Beauty And The Beast and Aladdin?

Box Office: Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot’s Snow White releases on 21st March; Can Disney’s live action flick REPEAT the theatrics of Beauty And The Beast and Aladdin?

Disney’s highly anticipated live-action remake of Snow White, starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, is set to hit theaters on March 21. As anticipation builds, it prompts discussion on whether the offering can replicate the massive box office success of Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. While the prospects are unlikely, given recent underwhelming performances from Disney’s live-action reimaginings, the unpredictable nature of the box office means nothing can be ruled out. Beauty and the Beast (2017), starring Emma Watson and Dan Stevens, was a huge success, raking in a staggering $1.2 billion worldwide. The film, directed by Bill Condon, stayed true to the beloved 1991 animated classic, resonating with audiences across generations. Similarly, Aladdin (2019), led by Mena Massoud, Naomi Scott, and Will Smith as the Genie, posted an impressive global haul of $1.05 billion. Guy Ritchie’s vibrant take on the Disney classic charmed moviegoers with its dazzling visuals, energetic musical numbers, and familiar retelling of the iconic tale with minimal fresh takes. However, times have changed, and Disney’s live-action formula doesn’t guarantee success …
