Foot – Covid – The clubs would have lost 7 billion euros because of the Covid-19

The Covid-19 pandemic would have cost European football 7 billion euros over the two years, UEFA said in a report published Thursday, where it notes a sharp decline in the transfer market for the 2020 and 2021 seasons.According to UEFA, European clubs faced a shortfall of 4 billion euros in 2020, and 3 billion euros in the following season, thus interrupting a growth of twenty years in a row.

Hakeem Olajuwon: “Alperen Sengun already has all the basics” | NBA

His leaders had promised him that he would be entitled to private sessions with Hakeem Olajuwon, and it's done! Alperen Sengun was able to train with the legend of the Rockets, and "The Dream" had devoted this first session to the "spin move". The former Houston pivot, considered the most technical pivot in history, was the king of the “spin move” to eliminate his opponents or place his “Dream Shake”. When you measure 2m10 and more, it's complicated to be flexible on your supports, and to perform a “spin move”. But Hakeem Olajuwon believes the Turk has the basics to make it happen. "We were finally able to get together, and it was great" explained Hakeem Olajuwon to the local press. "You know, his coach in Turkey told me he was a big fan of me, and he already has all the basi...

10 out of 10 for stunning Suns against Spurs | NBA

While waiting for the return to business of Deandre Ayton, but also of Jae Crowder, the Suns did the job without shaking last night against San Antonio (115-110). Chris Paul (20 points, 19 assists, 8 rebounds) and Devin Booker (28 points) have been faithful to the position, as has Mikal Bridges (26 points) who achieved his best mark of the season. Trailing for most of the game, Phoenix managed to regain the upper hand in the last quarter, thanks to the contribution of Cam Johnson and two consecutive shots "clutches" from Devin Booker. Despite the heroic resistance of the Spurs, Phoenix therefore pocketed a 40th victory this season, the 10th in a row, which ensured Monty Williams and his staff to represent the Western Conference at the next All Star Game in Cleveland on February ...
