The build-up to the game saw many neutrals rooting for Julian Nagelsmann’s side. However, the result did not go their way. A dominant first-half performance was all Bayern Munich needed to grab all three points, with Leon Goretzka scoring the only goal of the game. Bayern Munich have won each of the last eight Bundesliga titles and are now in pole position to make it nine consecutive league titles after beating RB Leipzig....

Although it looked like Kovac’s job was safe for the time being despite a series of underwhelming results, the Bavarians parted company with the Croatian tactician after a 5-1 hammering at the hands of Eintracht Frankfurt. Assistant manager Flick was appointed on an interim basis and the club indicated that their search for a new manager could continue into the international break. The likes of Erik ten Hag and Jose Mourinho were reportedly amongst the candidates considered, but Arsene Wenger is reportedly the front-runner for the job as the legendary Frenchman is well acquainted with the Bayern hierarchy....

Scoring three times against Bayern without conceding an away goal was an enormous achievement and one which has put them in an excellent position to make the final of the tournament for the first time since 2011. The Bundesliga side know they must score at least three times but are also aware that should they concede they would then need five, meaning they must find a balance between defending and attacking in Tuesday’s match (2:45 p....

BVB trailed Bayern by nine points and a goal difference of 27 before Der Klassiker, and Die Roten’s lead at the top of the table is now unassailable after a match in which they rarely looked troubled after Gnabry’s 15th-minute opener. The winger controlled the ball with his knee on the edge of the penalty area following a Joshua Kimmich corner, then sent a glorious volley beyond Marwin Hitz’s dive to send Bayern on their way in front of their ecstatic home fans....

The Liverpool manager remains the last boss to break Bayern’s stranglehold over German football, having guided Borussia Dortmund to consecutive Bundesliga triumphs in 2011 and 2012. Dortmund, Wolfsburg and now RB Leipzig have all fallen short in subsequent chases of Bayern. Bayern thrashed Arsenal 10-2 in this season’s Champions League, which could be the Gunners’ last trip to Europe’s top table, as they face up to a likely fifth-place finish....

Reports have indicated James’ parent club Real Madrid could seek to send the Colombia international to Bayern on a permanent deal at the end of the season as part of a transfer involving Robert Lewandowski. Bayern have a €42 million purchase option on James but the Bundesliga leaders are not in a hurry to secure the 26-year-old, while Lewandowski prompted speculation about his future this month by hiring Pini Zahavi as his new agent....

ICC rules stipulate that all squads taking part in the World Cup will be of 15 members, but the Indian board insisted on having Dhawal Kulkarni as the 17th member in Australia. Reports had suggested then that India had kept Dhawal as part of the team’s backroom staff. It had been a unique case of a current player being part of the team management. The 25-year-old had been named in the initial list of 30 probables for the World Cup but didn’t make the final cut....

After quarterback Mitchell Trubisky’s breakthrough game Sunday, the Bears’ defense and offense seem to be in sync. The defense made three interceptions and Mack continued pressuring the quarterback, while Trubisky threw for a career-high six touchdown passes in the Bears’ 48-10 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. “He came up and showed why he’s the guy,” Mack said about Trubisky, who completed 19 of 26 passes for 354 yards....

Almost exactly a month later, Foles’ performance in Chicago’s 24-10 loss on Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Rams was so bad that it had Bears fans calling for him to be replaced by the very player he helped benching in the first place. Foles completed 28 of his 40 passes for 261 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions for a rating of 66.8 as the Bears were shut out in the first and third quarter and their only touchdown was a fumble recovery that came with the team down by 21 points in the final period....

Beckham played a vital role in their first Champions League triumph and was brought through by Ferguson as part of the revered ‘Class of ‘92’ alongside Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and Ryan Giggs....

The former England national team captain watched on, dressed in a sharp gray suit, as MLS commissioner Don Garber confirmed that Beckham will be the owner of the league's 22nd franchise. “From the beginning of my career in England to today in Miami, my journey has always been driven by my incredible passion for the game,” Beckham said in a news release. “Miami is a vibrant, diverse community that thrives on the same type of energy that fuels the international appeal of soccer, and I look forward to a dedicated, long-term partnership with this dynamic city and Major League Soccer....

Fans across social media showed their concern when The Man didn’t appear on RAW for the second consecutive week, but it appears to just be a creative decision.

Lynch was also featured in a backstage interview for WWE.com where she expressed her displeasure with not being on RAW recently, as well as the lack of action surrounding her Championship:...

At one point, a group of Battlefield 2042 players get into an elevator, with the intense music stopping as the players huddle up inside the lift.

First and foremost, Battlefield V is a little light on content out of the gate, and at times feels unfinished. The menus are dotted with game modes that won’t be available until later on, like Tides of War, co-op, a fourth War Story single-player campaign mission, and of course, the Firestorm battle royale mode. Some of this content will be available within the next few weeks, but in the case of Firestorm, players have to wait until March 2019 to try it out....
