Barcelona routs storied rival OL Lyonnes in Women’s Champions League final

OSLO, Norway — Barcelona rose again to the peak of European soccer by routing its most storied rival OL Lyonnes 4-0 in an overwhelming second-half display in the Women’s Champions League final on Saturday. HT Image A four-time European champion in just six seasons, Barcelona is a dynasty in women’s soccer replacing Lyon which dominated the previous decade and has a record eight titles. Barcelona forward Ewa Pajor lost in her first five visits to the European title match but the former Wolfsburg star made her sixth attempt count with two goals. Pajor struck with an arrowing low shot in the 55th minute and a close-range finish in the 69th when the Barcelona attack was queuing up to score past the stretched Lyon defense. “This is amazing, the best day of my life,” the 29-year-old Pajor said. “I’ve played in six finals and finally, in Oslo, we did it.” Salma Paralluelo turned the screw on Lyon by firing in a rising left-foot shot in the 90th and adding another slick finish in stoppage time.

From Bathinda to Lyon: How a Punjab cracked WHO’s ‘gold standard’ review to fight cancer fake news | Chandigarh News

4 min readAmritsarMar 7, 2026 05:42 PM IST The Central University of Punjab (CUPB) in Bathinda has secured formal acceptance of its groundbreaking research on cancer misinformation by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), the World Health Organization’s specialised cancer arm. The study, titled ‘Cancer Misinformation in the Digital Age: A Global Synthesis of Research Trends and Key Themes’, has been selected for presentation at the prestigious IARC@60 conference in Lyon, France, scheduled in the third week of May, positioning CUPB as a key global player in public health communication. The study originated from the Interventions Design and Effects Lab (IDEL) in the Department of Mass Communication and Media Studies, under the School of Information and Communication Studies. This rare honour came after the research passed IARC’s rigorous Scientific Consensus Review — a “gold standard” evaluation demanding unanimous agreement from an international panel of top oncologists, epidemiologists, and scientists on methodology, data integrity, and policy relevance on March 3. Far tougher than standard peer review, this “zero-doubt” process validates the team’s interdisciplinary approach …

Pat Cummins ruled out of Ashes, Nathan Lyon to miss Boxing Day Test against England | Cricket News

Australian captain Pat Cummins was ruled out of the remaining two Ashes Tests in Melbourne and Sydney, head coach Andrew McDonald said on Tuesday. The 32-year-old had hinted after the win in the third Test at Adelaide that he could miss the Boxing Day Test, with a decision on his involvement in the New Year’s Test in Sydney meant to be taken later. “He won’t play any part in the rest of the series. That was a discussion that we had a long time out around his return. Yeah, we were taking on some risk. We’ve now won the series, and that was the goal. To position him for further risk and jeopardise him long term is not something that we want to do.” “Pat’s really comfortable with that. If he had any setback in the build-in as well, we would have shut him down straight away,” McDonald told reporters on Tuesday. Off-spinner Nathan Lyon would also miss the Boxing Day Test, with Cricket Australia saying that the 38-year-old would need surgery after he tore …

‘Aussies are laughing’: Michael Vaughan expresses disappointment after England fail to reclaim Ashes | Cricket News

‘Aussies are laughing’: Michael Vaughan expresses disappointment after England fail to reclaim Ashes | Cricket News

Former England player Michael Vaughan said that England had come to Australia with an approach which was destined to combust under pressure. He also talked about the lack of improvement in the team and their refusal to learn lessons after getting caught out by good teams ahead of the Ashes. England’s dream of reclaiming the Ashes went up in smoke on Sunday when the Aussies defeated them in the 3rd Test at Adelaide and took a 3-0 lead in the 5-match series. With 2 matches remaining, England will have to buck up or face further embarrassment of a 5-0 whitewash. England thought they were coming to Australia with a new method that could win, but have been proven completely wrong. They had already been caught out a couple of times by good teams, but failed to improve. You look at the way Ben Stokes batted in the first innings in Adelaide, and Zak Crawley in the second. You think if they had batted like that in Perth in the second innings, the game would have …

Glenn McGrath’s hilarious reaction as Nathan Lyon goes past his Test record on Ashes 3rd Test Day 2 | Cricket News

Nathan Lyon took two wickets on Day 2 of the third Ashes Test in which Australia took a giant leap towards recording yet another series win over England. In the process, the spinner went past Australia pace legend Glenn McGrath to become the country’s second highest wicket-taker of all time in Test history. Lyon now has 564 wickets to his name in 141 Tests while McGrath retired with 563 in 124. The only player above Lyon now is the late great Shane Warne, who ended his illustrious career with 708 wickets in 145 Tests. McGrath was at the Adelaide Oval, commentating on the proceedings when Lyon broke the record. Cricket.com.au posted a video of him jokingly proceeding to smash a chair in frustration after it happened. Glenn McGrath’s reaction to Nathan Lyon passing him on the all-time Test wickets list was absolutely hilarious 🤣 #Ashes pic.twitter.com/1jTM06M8me — cricket.com.au (@cricketcomau) December 18, 2025 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js Lyon had been stuck on 562 wickets for five months, with Australia leaving him out in two of their last three Tests. …

Nathan Lyon feeling ‘absolutely filthy’ over Ashes snub at Gabba

Nathan Lyon feeling ‘absolutely filthy’ over Ashes snub at Gabba

After being dropped for the second Ashes Test at the Gabba in Brisbane, veteran Australia spinner Nathan Lyon minced no words and showed his disappointment, saying he had not yet been able to bring himself to speak to selectors about the decision. When asked for his opinion, he summed up his feelings bluntly: “Absolutely filthy,” he told the official broadcaster Channel 7, using local slang for anger. “But yeah, can’t do anything about it. So, I hope I can play my role in making sure I get the guys ready and do whatever I can to make sure that we get the right result here.” One of Australia’s most successful bowlers with 562 Test wickets, Lyon was omitted from a home Test for the first time since 2012. Selectors opted for an all-pace attack, bringing in Michael Neser ahead of the off-spinner. The decision is particularly surprising given Lyon’s strong record in day-night Tests, where he has taken 43 wickets in 13 matches at an average of 25.62, compared to his career average of 30.16. …
