Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has admitted he "does not know" whether Jadon Sancho will ever play for the club again after the pair's public falling-out. Sancho was dropped from the squad which fell 3-1 to Arsenal before the international break, with Ten Hag claiming the 23-year-old's poor performances in training were behind his controversial decision. That accusation was publicly challenged by Sancho, who claimed on social media that he had been made a "scapegoat" at the club in a post which remained live for over a week before being taken down. Ten Hag discussed his decision to discipline Sancho during a press conference on Friday but he has now cast doubt over whether the England international will ever feature for the club again. "I don’t know," Ten Hag responded when asked if Sancho would play for United again. "I am sitting here. [On Saturday] we have a big Game , we are going into a new block of Game s, many Game s in a conden...

The two sides failed to reach an agreement before a deadline set by the union. A union representing nearly 150,000 autoworkers launched a strike early Friday morning against the Big 3 U.S. automakers -- General Motors, Ford and Stellantis. The United Auto Workers, or UAW, and the car manufacturers failed to reach a contract agreement before a deadline set by the union for Thursday at 11:59 p.m. ET. Less than two hours before the deadline, UAW president Shawn Fain announced the plants where union members would strike if a tentative agreement wasn't reached in time. By midnight Friday, that amounted to approximately 12,700 union workers, including ones at GM in Wentzville, Missouri; Stellantis in Toledo, Ohio; and Ford’s Wayne, Michigan plant. The union is doing what’s called a “stand-up” strike , where not all union members strike at once. United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain speaks at a rally with union members after marching in the Detroit Labor Day Parade on September 4, 202...

Fresh inflation data follows an uptick in July that reversed some progress in the fight to slow price hikes. Consumer prices rose 3.7% in August compared to a year ago, marking the second consecutive month of increased i NFL ation and suggesting a bumpy path in the effort to bring i NFL ation back down to normal levels, government data on Wednesday showed. The fresh data follows an uptick in July that reversed some of the progress achieved in the fight to cut price increases and offer relief for household budgets. The data exceeded economist expectations that consumer prices would have increased 3.6% in August compared to a year ago, an increase from the inflation rate recorded in July. That month, the inflation rate ticked up on a year-over-year basis for the first time since last summer. Inflation stands well below its peak last year of over 9% but remains more than a percentage point higher than the Federal Reserve's target rate. Core inflation -- a measure that strips out vol...

In Atlanta, drivers across the city, along with elected officials, have been raising their voices over the growing number of cars that are booted by private companies.

Kamala Harris swatted away attacks from Republicans, casting barbs against her as evidence of fear from Republicans of running against President Joe Biden next year Vice President Kamala Harris is responding to attacks from Republicans, casting barbs against her as evidence of what she called the GOP's fear of running against President Joe Biden next year.

TOKYO: Japan launched a lunar exploration spacecraft on Thursday aboard a homegrown H-IIA rocket, hoping to become the world's fifth country to land on the moon early next year. Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) said the rocket took off from Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan as planned and successfully released the Smart Lander for Investigating Moon (SLIM). Unfavourable weather led to three postponements in a week last month. Dubbed the "moon sniper", Japan aims to land SLIM within 100 metres of its target site on the lunar surface. The $100-million mission is expected to start the landing by February after a long, fuel-efficient approach trajectory. "The big objective of SLIM is to prove the high-accuracy landing ... to achieve 'landing where we want' on the lunar surface, rather than 'landing where we can'," JAXA President Hiroshi Yamakawa told a news conference. Hours after launch on Thursday, JAXA said it picked up si...

Federal prosecutors in Phoenix say a founder of the classified ad site Backpage PHOENIX -- A founder of the classified site Backpage.com and four employees carefully strategized how to bring in ads for prostitution to maintain their top-earning platform, a prosecutor said Thursday at a federal trial in Phoenix. Attorneys for Michael Lacey and the other four defendants countered that their clients had nothing to do with the daily operations of classified ads. The clash over culpability was at the center of opening state ments in the second trial of all five on charges of facilitating prostitution and laundering money in what authorities say was a scheme to knowingly sell ads for sex on the classified site. “They made money on one section — adults, specifically prostitution,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew Stone said. “There are such things as legal escorts. The evidence is going to show the term escort used on Backpage, that's not what it meant.” Paul Cambria, who represents Lacey...

Liverpool made it four Game s unbeaten to start their Premier League campaign on Sunday, dispatching of Aston Villa with ease at Anfield. A tough Game was expected against a decent Villa outfit, however the Reds made light work of things thanks to strikes from Mohamed Salah and Dominik Szoboszlai and an own goal from Matty Cash. Here's Liverpool's best and worst players from the win, according to 90min's player ratings. Liverpool's best player vs Aston Villa Mohamed Salah - 8/10 Salah delivered a stunning performance / Matt McNulty/GettyImages An Anfield swansong for Mohamed Salah? With Al Ittihad hellbent on signing the legendary forward, preparing a world record bid in order to do so, the Game against Aston Villa may very well have been Salah's last at Anfield. And if it was, what a way to go out. The forward was in inspired form on the right flank, bagging a goal and turning Pau Torres inside out an innumerate amount of times. Honourable mention Dominik Szobos...

Australian Competition and Consumer Commission chair Gina Cass-Gottlieb said Qantas’ penalty for allegedly breaching consumer law should be more than double the Australian record 125 million Australian dollar ($81 million) fine imposed on the Volkswagen Group in 2019 for misleading customers about the level of exhaust emissions from its diesel engines. “We consider that this should be a record penalty for this conduct,” Cass-Gottieb told Australian Broadcasting Corp. “We are going to seek a penalty that will underline that this is not just to be a cost of doing business.” “We consider these penalties...
