El Tri expecting resolute Costa Rica The 28-year-old received a pass from Neymar in the middle of the pitch, squared up and fired home the first goal for Brazil in Thursday night’s World Cup qualifier.

The France star’s stuttered run-up has been a fixture of his spot-kicks this season, the latest of which was saved by Jordan Pickford in Manchester United’s 2-1 win over Everton on Sunday. Although Pogba buried the rebound, he admitted he might have to change his style now that goalkeepers are wising up to his methods, with his attempt at Old Trafford preceded by 28 mini-steps during more seconds than it took Usain Bolt to run the 100 metres in his prime....

Coaches Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Kelly Clarkson and John Legend will pair their teammates up once again, but this time around contestants won’t have to sing with one another.

As announced before E3 2021, the latest Watch Dogs: Legion Bloodline trailer showed a brief preview of the DLC’s playable characters: Aiden Pearce from Watch Dogs 1 and Wrench from Watch Dogs 2. Although the trailer was brief, it showed a glimpse of the story that the DLC will explore, and based on what was shown so far, it appears that Bloodline will be a more direct continuation of Watch Dogs 1 and 2 than the main Watch Dogs Legion campaign....

Upon starting Watch Dogs Legion, players will start with only a handful of masks, but they can collect up to 40 of them by exploring the city. Luckily, masks are marked on the map, making it easier for players to spot them, and they will appear as a small gray icon that resembles a gas mask. It’s worth noting that masks won’t appear on the player’s main map, and they will only show up on the minimap once the player gets close to one....

While London has been often rumored to be the next Watch Dogs setting, the Watch Dogs Legion listing makes clear it’s not going to be the London most are familiar with. The listing describes the setting as a “near-future, dystopian version of London,” where “society, politics and technology have changed and altered London’s fortunes.” The “post-Brexit” London is described as ripe for a Watch Dogs sequel due to its well-known reputation for surveillance levels....

Then with Ubisoft’s official reveal during E3, players got some vague Cyberpunk 2077 vibes during the premiere trailer and gameplay. While Watch Dogs: Legion isn’t as far into the future as CD Projekt Red’s next game will be, the comparisons were obvious. Holographic neon advertisements, heavily armored military force with sci-fi technology, and an oppressed citizenry under martial law from a private military corporation. Even though Legion is honestly a bit more grounded compared to Cyberpunk 2077, there’s clearly some overlap between the two upcoming titles....

In the TikTok video, Anabel Dominguez can be seen standing up and walking with the help of a robotic exoskeleton only available to hospitals.

There is no doubt that Michael was never a part of the Witness Protection Program. Some characters like his wife, Amanda, believe him to be a part of it. Hence, it’s not surprising that some players would assume that to be true as well. However, they shouldn’t believe everything they hear in a video game. Sometimes, characters are wrong. If players read in-between the lines and extrapolate useful info, then they will understand that Michael wasn’t a part of the Witness Protection Program in any way....

Morbius is a bad movie. It has fully lived up to the terrible trailers and the awful premise, becoming the awful film that it was always destined to be. Its box office return has been disappointing, critics have torn it to shreds, and, at the time of writing, “Morbiussweep” has been trending on Twitter on and off since the film’s release.

MORE: Analyzing Washington’s draft | Team grades Washington on Thursday announced a contract extension for tight end Jordan Reed. It’s a five-year, $50 million deal, according to ESPN, which is on par with what Chiefs TE Travis Kelce received in January. That’s great value for one of the league’s better pass-catching tight ends. Reed deserves credit for elevating quarterback Kirk Cousins, who too is coming off a career year. But Reed’s masking of Cousins’ deficiencies might be one reason Washington is pumping the breaks on the QB’s extension, or lack thereof....

City will host Sydney at AAMI Park this week hoping to strengthen their hold on third spot in the A-League table by simultaneously handing the leaders their second straight loss. Sydney’s tilt at an unbeaten season came to an end last week when they lost the derby 1-0 to Western Sydney Wanderers, and Cahill has taken a shot at Graham Arnold’s side. While the Sky Blues have scored 41 goals in 20 A-League games this season - more than all other clubs apart from Melbourne Victory (42) - there has been criticism in some circles for the way they play....

Nurmagomedov successfully defended the UFC Lightweight Championship with a second-round submission win over Justin Gaethje, and then proceeded to call it a career during the post-fight interview.
