The Red Devils came into the game on the back of an embarrassing defeat to the Young Boys in the UEFA Champions League in midweek. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made three changes to the side that suffered defeat in Switzerland, with Mason Greenwood, Scott McTominay and Raphael Varane all handed starts. The game started with both sides paying homage to former England international Jimmy Greaves, who passed on hours before kickoff....

After being substituted in the second half of West Ham’s 2-1 win at London Stadium this month, Livermore appeared to react to a fan close to the visitors’ dugout and was led away. According to West Brom, Livermore was provoked by a comment made about the death of his infant son in 2014. And following the conclusion of an investigation, the Hammers have taken now action aimed at preventing the individual in question from attending the team’s matches....

The piece, titled ‘The Insider’ and attributed to an anonymous author - whose views, it is stated, are “not necessarily the views of West Ham United” but is said to have inside knowledge of the club’s transfer dealings - claims “a bid of £20m” has been made for “a player from Scotland”.

WATCH: Payet scores facing the wrong way The Hammers are currently ninth in the Premier League table, but have enjoyed something of a renaissance in the second-half of the season, and have avoided defeat in their last three Premier League games. A win over Chelsea would surely provide a welcome boost to a Hammers side that is currently looking to banish the grim spectre of the opening months of the season, where they flirted with the bottom three and the prospect of relegation....

West Indies captain Jason Holder won the toss and decided to field first. England openers Alex Hales and Jonny Bairstow put pressure on West Indies bowlers right from the start.

Oshane Thomas broke the dangerous partnership by dismissing Jonny Bairstow for a well-made 56. Jonny Bairstow and Alex Hales added 100 runs in just 13....

Mayor Amy Goodwin had originally changed the name of the event to the Winter Parade in the spirit of non-exclusivity. “Charleston is an inclusive community,” Mayor Amy Goodwin said in a Facebook video. “And we want everyone to participate in this parade.

Line: Kentucky -13.5, Total: 136.5 (current Sweet 16 spread and totals) West Virginia (25-9 SU, 19-13 ATS) was not exactly on fire coming into the Tournament, losing three of its last four games. It was also on a four-game streak to the OVER. Things have changed on the Mountaineers’ path to the Sweet 16. Buffalo gave WVU a fight, but the Big 12 school ultimately came out on top, covering as a 4....

The Center’s e-mails probably reach hundreds of thousands of people around the world (counting pass-along). Today’s message: that the world’s financial-services firms must either help shut down terrorists or forget about doing business with the United States. That’s a talking point that dovetailed nicely with today’s federal clamp down on Islamic financial networks operating in the United States. While it zaps out its daily missive, the White House, in turn, has been inundated with messages from its allies....

The point guard scored only nine points and was just 4-of-22 shooting in a 105-103 road loss on Sunday. Westbrook missed all eight attempts from three-point range and the 2017 NBA MVP knows he must raise his game offensively. “I’ve just got to do a better job,” Westbrook said. “It’s really on me. I’ve been s*** the last month or so. I’ve just got to get focused in and locked back in on what I need to do....

Ducks goalie Frederik Anderson was the best player on the ice for Game 1, stopping 32 of 33 shots, and the likes of Nate Thompson and Kyle Palmieri provided the offense as the Ducks delivered on a 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.

The France international has made a decent start to life in England, scoring two goals in six matches in all competitions since arriving for €53 million from Lyon. Gunners 8/5 to beat West Brom O2.5 goals But Lacazette, 26, was unable to have an impact in the 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge before being substituted in the 66th minute, the forward missing a glorious chance prior to half-time.

The Gunners came from 1-0 down to go into the break level at 1-1 away to the Bundesliga champions, Arjen Robben opening the scoring and Alexis Sanchez responding for the visitors in the first leg of the round-of-16 tie. Bayern mercilessly troll Arsenal The loss of captain and centre-back Laurent Koscielny to injury early in the second half appeared to prove fatal, though, and acted as the trigger for a disastrous spell which saw Thiago Alcantara score twice and both Robert Lewandowski and substitute Thomas Muller hit the back of the net....

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men had won back-to-back matches in all competitions heading into Sunday’s Premier League clash but were beaten by goals from Andriy Yarmolenko and Aaron Cresswell late in both halves. Yarmolenko scored the breakthrough goal 44 minutes in and Cresswell converted a free-kick six minutes from time to kill off United, who ended the match without a recognised striker after losing Marcus Rashford to injury. Victory for the visitors would have lifted them into third place but it is West Ham who leap up the table, Manuel Pellegrini’s men moving into the top four thanks to their third win of the season....

The talks doing the rounds were not in my favour and my inclusion in the team was uncertain. The selectors wanted just four fast pace bowlers in the squad. As the camp progressed under tough conditions, Kapil Dev, Sanjiv Sharma and Robin Singh were emerging as the selectors’ favourites. And I was to battle for the lowly fourth seamer spot with T.A Shekhar. I was quite perplexed by this situation as I had taken a five-for at Delhi in the most recent home series against West Indies and had four wickets in the Mumbai Test....
