data-mm-id=”_dpp7ymsls”>UConn and Purdue are facing off in the national title game Monday night. The Huskies lead 36-30 at the half in a back-and-forth contest. Zach Edey has been excellent for Purdue, but drew the ire of UConn coach Dan Hurley at one point. During a break in the action that came after a hard screen from Edey, Hurley stormed onto the court to confront the officials. He thought Edey should have been called for a foul. As he yelled at the officials, Edey turned and said something, which led to Hurley yelling at Edey. It was a tense moment. Here's video:pic.twitter.com/vWeZ0zuNkn— wow that was crazy (@CowardlyDoggo) April 9, 2024Look, I'm an Indiana alum and I can't stand Purdue. Even I can see that was a clean screen by Edey. And while I'm thrilled this is the last time I have to watch that 7-foot-4 monster play college basketball, Hurley was absolutely out of line here. I get that Hurley's whole thing is going right up against the line of what's acceptable behavior for a coach, but this crossed it.

Borussia Dortmund sensation Youssoufa Moukoko has become the youngest player to ever feature in the Champions League.
Moukoko wrote his name into the Bundesliga history books when making his debut in a 5-2 win over Hertha Berlin on November 21, going on to make a further two substitute appearances from the bench in the top flight.
After staying on the bench for the duration of Dortmund s games against Club Brugge and Lazio, Moukoko has now set another record after coming on as a 58th-minute substitute in Tuesday s clash with Zenit St Petersburg, with Lucien Favre s side 2-1 up.
At 16 years and 18 days old, he has surpassed the record set by Celestine Babayaro, who was 16 years and 87 days when starting for Anderlecht against Steaua Bucharest in the 1994-95 gro…
Pep Guardiola insisted he had no regrets over ringing the changes as Manchester City went down to a shock 2-1 defeat at home against Leeds United.
Stuart Dallas broke away to score his second of the game in stoppage time to give Marcelo Bielsa s men a hard-fought triumph over the Premier League leaders, despite losing captain Liam Cooper to a red card shortly before half-time.
Ferran Torres cancelled out Dallas first-half opener with 14 minutes to play but it was a frustrating outing in front of goal for Guardiola s men overall as they racked up 29 largely fruitless attempts and Leeds scored from their only two shots.
City will defend a slender 2-1 advantage in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final at Borussia Dortmund and Guardiola named an XI …
Market: Rangers win and over 1.5 goals
Odds:
With many around Ibrox dreaming that their side can clinch their first Premiership title 2011, a high-flying Rangers will travel to Hearts on Sunday lunchtime.
Starting with the hosts, slumping to a 1-0 loss at home to Kilmarnock prior to the international break, the mood in Hearts camp remains incredibly fragile. With many demanding that Head Coach Craig Levin step down from his role, fans around Tynecastle Park have seen their side win just one of their last 15 Premiership outings, a run that stems all the way back to the 30th of March.

Hwang Hee-chan scored a stoppage-time winner to beat Portugal 2-1 and put South Korea through to the last 16 of the World Cup at the expense of Uruguay in a dramatic conclusion to Group H.
The Taeguk Warriors appeared to be heading out as they looked set to draw while Uruguay led Ghana elsewhere, but Hwang netted at the end to complete an incredible turnaround.
Ricardo Horta had put Portugal in front early on, but they failed to heed the warning posed by Kim Jin-su s disallowed goal soon after, with Kim Young-gwon deservedly getting South Korea back on level terms.
Portugal – who won the group anyway – coasted through the second half and South Korea took full advantage, with Hwang landing the decisive blow to spark bedlam and send Uruguay packing.

Mauricio Pochettino acknowledges he is a completely different coach to the fresh-faced tactician who enjoyed early career successes against Pep Guardiola.
Pochettino s Tottenham host Guardiola s Manchester City at Wembley on Monday, with the Premier League champions nine games into an unbeaten start to their title defence.
Despite an underwhelming Champions League campaign to date, Spurs have been similarly impressive domestically this term and victory at England s national stadium would see them leapfrog City in the standings.
A 2-0 win in the same fixture at White Hart Lane in 2016 saw Pochettino hand Guardiola his first defeat in English football but it was not the first time he had got the better of the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss.

Manchester City’s director of football Txiki Begiristain paid tribute to the “inspirational” Ilkay Gundogan after the midfielder’s long-expected free transfer to Barcelona was confirmed.
The treble-winning captain turned down the chance to stay at City and is set to sign with Barca, who have set his buyout clause at 400million euros (£342m), until 2025 following the expiration of his existing contract.
Gundogan, who was manager Pep Guardiola’s first signing in July 2016, signed off in style by lifting the Champions League earlier this month after victory over Inter Milan in his 304th and final appearance.

Xabi Alonso has the qualities required to succeed as a head coach in the modern game and could be a future possibility for Bayern Munich, says CEO Karl-Heinz Rummenigge.
Spain World Cup winner Alonso spent three seasons at Allianz Arena between 2014 and 2017 before the cultured midfielder called time on his distinguished playing career.

The expectations on Erling Haaland at Borussia Dortmund are higher than they ever were for Robert Lewandowski when he joined the club, according to former BVB captain Sebastian Kehl.
Haaland made an electric start to his Dortmund career after signing from Salzburg in January, scoring 16 goals in 18 appearances in all competitions for the club in 2019-20.
The 20-year-old striker hit a double in their season-opening game against Borussia Monchengladbach but struggled in the 2-0 defeat to Augsburg on Saturday, managing just one shot on target and 19 touches across the entire game.
It was a significant dip for Haaland, who has been touted to follow in the footsteps of Lewandowski, who spent four seasons at Signal Iduna Park between 2010 and 2014.
