3 min readUpdated: Jul 20, 2026 05:02 AM IST Argentina midfielder Leandro Paredes was shown a red card after the whistle was blown to mark the end of the 2026 World Cup final which they lost 1-0 to Spain 1-0 on Sunday. In some ugly scenes that followed the end of the match, Paredes was seen brawling with Spain defender Eric Garcia and Gavi. It is unclear what the provocation was but in videos floating on social media, Garcia can be seen falling on the ground in the seconds after the referee blew the final whistle. He then gets up and has heated words with Paredes who then proceeds to push Garcia away with a hand on the latter’s neck. Additionally, Argentina defender Nahuel Molina also reportedly seemed to punch a Spanish substitute in the stomach right after the final whistle. Leandro Paredes should be banned from international football for life viciously assaulting Spanish players after the final whistle. Indefensible thuggery and criminality. pic.twitter.com/aW5NMMIUXE — Adam Schwarz (@AdamJSchwarz) July 19, 2026 By this time, Argentina …

6 min readPhiladelphia (usa)Jul 5, 2026 06:17 AM IST The gloriously multi-dimensional French know many ways to kill the pesky cat disturbing their sleep. They could baffle them with their touch; they could bemuse them with their wits; they could pin them down with their muscle; they could play the piano, they could wield the sledgehammer too, which makes them the deadliest proposition in the tournament. The 1-0 victory over Paraguay that ensured quarterfinals was a triumph of their brawn, their capacity to outmatch gnarled men who tried to wrestle them, sometimes literally, at times harm them with a brand of cynicism that was strangely left unpunished. Wins as these don’t build an aura; but construct an irresistible energy that makes them feel unbreakable; that not even the extremest tactic could shake them. It was not France’s inability to score more goals that stood in a game that Thierry Henry commented, “football finally won” but their wherewithal and knowhow to nullify any strategies thrown at them. Kylian Mbappe, who scored the lone goal of the …

3 min readMumbaiJun 27, 2026 02:51 PM IST In an era increasingly defined by hypermasculinity and heightened testosterone-driven narratives, cinema continues to lean heavily on excessive and often graphic portrayals of violence. These depictions, whether in large-scale action spectacles or so-called light-hearted romantic dramas, can be deeply disturbing and triggering for sections of the audience. Filmmaker Neeraj Ghaywan recently reflected on this trend, calling out what he sees as an often lazy approach to portraying violence on screen. In a conversation with the YouTube channel Yuvaa, he pointed to the film Tere Ishk Mein, directed by Aanand L Rai and starring Dhanush and Kriti Sanon. ‘It’s just plain ugly’ “People say, ‘Unless you show violence, how will you talk about violence?’ Yeah, that is true.
