Football ⚽ - “We are over it… we are not children”

Jurgen Klopp claims he and his players are over their controversial defeat to Spurs last weekend when a Luis Diaz goal was wrongly not awarded after a VAR check.

Liverpool responded by beating Union St. Gilloise in the Europa League 2-0.

Check out all the results from the Europa League matches below:

See below the results from the Conference League, where Aston Villa came away with a 1-0 win after a 94th-minute John McGinn strike, in a game where they had 70% possession and 15 corners!

Rugby🏉 - McKenzie magic as All-Blacks trash Uruguay!

The All-Blacks dismantled Uruguay 73-0 to book their place in the knockout stages of the RWC, their position will be determined (1st or 2nd) when France faces off against Italy.

During the game, Damian McKenzie produced this piece of magic, watch it for yourself!

There was some slight controversy for New Zealand however despite the big win, with Ian Foster explaining what happened with the kicking duties switching from McKenzie to Beauden Barrett.

“Well, I asked Damian why he gave up the kicking tee when he kicked 2 really good ones, and he said that Aaron Smith, who was a water boy, had told Damian that I had given instructions that he had to give up the kicking tee, so he was really grumpy with me but I actually told him that I hadn’t said a word to Nuggy [Aaron Smith] so he then had a fight with Nuggy… At the end of the day, I wanted Beaduie to have a couple of goal kicks.”
