Both teams were desperate for a win to make their position in the group table comfortable but would be happy with the point because Atletico Madrid dropped points at Qarabag earlier in the night. Here are the talking points from the game: #5 – Cesar Azpilicueta needs a break Cesar Azpilicueta has been the most consistent defender in the Premier League ever since he joined Chelsea in 2012. He’s played as a Right Back, Left Back, Right Centre-Back and also as a Right Wing Back but one thing that was common in all the positions was that he was confident and reliable....

But since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine last February, this has changed. The 1986 disaster resulted from a meltdown of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant’s reactor. This caused two devastating explosions, which led to radioactive debris and fuel pouring out into the area. As a result, a 1,000-square-mile area surrounding the site was made off-limits to humans and dubbed the “exclusion zone.” And although the area is still highly radioactive today, in areas where there was less fallout, wildlife populations grew and created thriving ecosystems....

Unique Clay, 31, started running a fever while in labor at the University of Chicago Hospital on April 30, her father Alan Brown told Fox 32 Chicago. Brown said his daughter was sent home with ibuprofen after giving birth and testing positive for COVID-19, the disease caused by the novel coronavirus. “When they did let her go home, they gave her ibuprofen and we were told from watching the news that that feeds the virus itself, you’re supposed to give them Tylenol,” he said....

The city is lifting the requirements at the same time as the state mask mandate is set to be lifted Monday, and Lightfoot and other officials said improvements in several key metrics used by health officials motivated the decision, according to WTTW-TV.

Across the border in neighboring Slovakia, Dusan Badi, chairman of a local Roma group, talks about migrating as well. After years of persecution he plans to leave for Britain with his wife and seven children. “We want to go West, where minorities are tolerated and have better opportunities.” Isolated cases of disaffection–or harbingers of a mass cross-border movement that threatens Europe’s economic stability?

The Chiefs left tackle will have surgery on an injured groin muscle he suffered in practice last week which will cause him to miss multiple games, KMBC News reported Wednesday. Fisher will travel to Philadelphia to see a specialist for the surgery and likely will have it Thursday, coach Andy Reid said, but didn’t say how long he will be out. NFL media reported that a core surgery normally has a 4-6 week recovery time, which means Patrick Mahomes’ primary blocker will be gone for at least a fourth of the season....

But Andy Reid and the Chiefs’ extra cute play-calling backfired in Week 16 against the Falcons. Instead of Mahomes throwing on fourth down, Kansas City ran a trick play to set up a throw for wide receiver Sammy Watkins. His pass lofted down the left sideline toward Mahomes before it was picked off by Atlanta’s Keanu Neal. The pass essentially served as a punt pinned inside the 10, although that’s probably not why Reid put the ball in Watkins’ hands....

Phillip Lindsay and Royce Freeman ran roughshod over the Chiefs. Each scored a touchdown and Freeman eluded seven defenders and dragged a linebacker into the end zone on his 14-yard score. “We ran the ball well,” Broncos quarterback Case Keenum said. “We started off so many series just pounding the rock at second-and-1, first-and-10. Even with some loaded boxes that K.C. brought, our offensive line played really well. “We’ve got to keep running the ball well....

Thomas Tuchel transformed Chelsea’s side into Champions League winners in one half-season. A defensively formidable Blues unit dispatched Sevilla, Porto, Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Manchester City on their way to European glory. They were not tipped to win any of their last three matches in the Champions League. But they overcame the odds and even Pep Guardiola’s star-studded side couldn’t break down the Chelsea defence in the final. Last summer’s heavy investments paid off and Thomas Tuchel was handed a new contract until 2024....
