The Portuguese was leading the race to claim the award for the third time in a row, having made history by guiding Real Madrid to claim their record third consecutive UEFA Champions League triumph during the year as well as finishing on top of the goalscoring charts of the European tournament for the sixth straight season. However, his failure to lead his nation to a remarkable height during the FIFA World Cup tournament in Russia did a great harm to his chances of winning the Ballon d’Or, eventually losing the accolade to his ex-teammate Luka Modric who succeeded in leading Croatia to their first ever World Cup final during the summer....

They will now have to figure things out quickly as their two remaining games are against two unbeaten teams – India and New Zealand. On the other hand, Australia became the first team to confirm a spot for the semi-finals. But just why did England lose? Here are the main talking points from the match. Poor top-order batting In the past couple of years, England’s strength has been their top-order batting unit, but it was not the case yesterday....

The only title match scheduled for the event so far is between the WWE Champion Brock Lesnar and challenger Rey Mysterio. Lesnar has been engaged in a heated rivalry against Mysterio for the last several weeks. Mysterio has gained the upper hand on Lesnar as of late, most recently beating him with a pipe on RAW. However, most fans may not take this matchup seriously since it looks lopsided due to the vast size differences between the two Superstars....

This veteran has been playing for the Bucks for the last few seasons, where he averaged 3.3 points and 16 minutes per game making him great on bench support for any team. While he is currently “retired”, he is still a part of the free agency. Further, he has publically stated that he is willing to come back, given the right offer. The right offer in this situation seems to be only those coming from the Lakers, Warriors or the Mavericks....

Although SmackDown Live has lost one of its most promising superstars in the form of AJ Styles to the red brand, it still looks great with a bunch of other talented and already established WWE wrestlers. In an episode which was filled with great performances and some thrilling encounters, Kofi Kingston vs Shinsuke Nakamura with Kevin Owens and Xavier Woods on the ringside, stole the show. Both Superstars gave a great match only to be interrupted first by Rusev and then later by Kevin Owens, who turned heel after a short-lived face run....

League leaders Liverpool haven’t actually been linked with many players just yet, and boss Jurgen Klopp has thus far chosen not to comment on any potential transfers. But that probably won’t stop fans of the Reds from expecting a big-money move at some stage in January. That’d be a mistake in my opinion, though. Liverpool simply shouldn’t bring any new talent aboard this month, and here are 3 reasons why....

Following this bold claim, reports have emanated that Barcelona are interested in bringing the Brazilian international back to Nou Camp, with speculations that the 27-year-old has agreed to their three demands for him to return to the club. The former Santos forward left Barcelona in acrimonious circumstances in a world record fee just two years ago but the coast now seems clear for him to make a shocking return to the Nou Camp....

In the last 18 months, Rohit’s performance has seen a facelift and has made a massive impact at the top of the order. In 2018, he averaged over 73 and in the ongoing year, he has averaged over 57. Besides, he finished as the top run-scorer with 648 runs in 10 innings and stamped his dominance as a game-changer for India. While Rohit’s transition from just a middle-order batsman to one of the best opening batsmen did take time, he has finally lived up to his much-talked-about potential, at least in the limited-overs scene....

Even though Owens abruptly replaced Kingston, we need to realize that WWE is portraying him as a babyface with genuine concern for others. Owens explicitly said Kofi Kingston also deserved to be in the championship as much as he does. Owens also did not attack Kingston and did not resort to any such heelish acts even though he was handpicked by Vince McMahon to be in the Fastlane title match....

For over 30 years, the company has just done that, using the business savvy of Vince McMahon and others to turn this once small promotion, into the undisputed global juggernaut of Sports Entertainment. But in order to keep making money, sacrifices have to be made. Often, this comes in the form of releases, when a talent is removed from the company, as they deem that wrestler unprofitable. Here are three wrestlers who fans would be shocked to see get released next year, as well as 2 which are pretty obviously going to get the chop....

Depending on the size of the vines, you may need to use loppers or even a small saw instead of garden shears/clippers.

If the ivy has been growing for a long time, you may need loppers or a small saw to cut through the vines....

If your shelf is large and somewhat heavy, you may consider using screws and plastic drywall anchors to hang it instead of nails.

If your camera is too low, it may look like you have a double-chin to the camera. For instance, try to set up your camera in front of a plain wall without any major distractions, like a TV. Have your eyes in the top third of your screen, with a small bit of open space above your head....
