| Leicester's Vardy sinks Bournemouth with clinical display in 3-1 win | https://www.euronews.com/2019/08/31/leicesters-vardy-sinks-bournemouth-with-clinical-display-in-3-1-win | 2019-08-31 19:33:11 | euronews | (Reuters) – Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy was involved in all three goals as Brendan Rodgers’ side beat Bournemouth 3-1 in an end-to-end contest at | Europe | https://static.euronews.com/articles/wires/05/19/34/16/1440x810_leicesters-vardy-sinks-bournemouth-with-clinical-display-in-3-1-win.jpg | (Reuters) – Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy was involved in all three goals as Brendan Rodgers’ side beat Bournemouth 3-1 in an end-to-end contest at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League on Saturday. Leicester, who were industrious both on and off the ball against the visitors, move provisionally up to third in the table with eight points after four games. “We were worthy winners I felt,” Rodgers said. “I’m so, so proud of them. They gave so much against a very good side. “Vardy is a top-class striker. From the day I walked though the door he’s been amazing. It was a difficult (first) goal today… on the bounce, his connection and finish.” Vardy opened the scoring in the 12th minute when he took advantage of Bournemouth’s high line to break the offside trap and latch onto Ben Chilwell’s long ball, lobbing the ball over goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale who was caught in no man’s land. But the hosts’ lead lasted only three minutes after Bournemouth’s Ryan Fraser slipped the ball through to find striker Callum Wilson, whose shot from an acute angle beat Kasper Schmeichel and trickled into the goal at the far post. Vardy then turned provider for Leicester’s second, beating Steve Cook on the right side of the box on the dribble before playing the ball across goal for midfielder Youri Tielemans who restored the lead with a simple tap-in. In the second half, Leicester had a heart-in-the-mouth moment when VAR checked to see if Tielemans deserved to be sent off for a rash and potentially leg-breaking challenge on Callum Wilson but the review did not produce a decision. Bournemouth thought they had a penalty in the 69th minute when Wilson went down in the box under pressure from Leicester defender Caglar Soyuncu but the referee waved it away and booked Wilson for simulation. Leicester’s persistence paid off when James Maddison nicked the ball off the Bournemouth back line and the ball fell to Tielemans, whose pass back into the box was taken first time by Vardy to make it 3-1. “There were bits in the first half we were pleased with,” Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe told BBC. “The goals killed us, from the first to the third. We’ve gifted them goals, it gave us a mountain to climb.” Dominic Solanke forced a save from Schmeichel with a swerving effort from range that dipped late while Demarai Gray’s solo run at the other end in stoppage time nearly produced a fourth before Cook stepped in to block his effort. Leicester travel to Manchester United in the next round of fixtures after the international break while Bournemouth host Everton.

| Neville says managers have to adjust to social media age | https://www.euronews.com/2019/06/23/neville-says-managers-have-to-adjust-to-social-media-age | 2019-06-23 14:33:02 | euronews | (Note language in paragraph seven that some readers may find offensive.) By Simon Evans MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) – Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville | Europe | https://static.euronews.com/articles/wires/05/01/66/68/1440x810_neville-says-managers-have-to-adjust-to-social-media-age.jpg | (Note language in paragraph seven that some readers may find offensive.) By Simon Evans MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) – Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has urged coaches and managers to accept their players will use social media but said players should take stock of whether their videos will create a positive impression. United midfielder Jesse Lingard has recently been criticised for videos filmed in his hotel bedroom and posted on Instagram while on holiday in Miami Beach with team mate Marcus Rashford. Neville, who won eight Premier League titles with United under Alex Ferguson’s management and is now a pundit for Sky Sports television, said there was little point in coaches opposing social media use. Speaking to a conference of coaches and sports scientists in Manchester, Neville said there was a danger of older people in the game appearing out of touch. “I found myself challenging myself as a pundit in these last two or three years, around the changing type of players, the changing type of media… it’s a dilemma for all traditional based coaches,” he said. “The idea of a guy dressing up, dancing, on social media, what we would say looking a ‘bit of a prat’ and not winning football matches, not playing that well, is a really bad cocktail. “But then on the other side of it you think – he is giving his all, he is a young lad, social media now is the modern form of media, so us old bastards – get over it, get over it.” Neville said that with the decline of traditional newspapers, players were inevitably going to be drawn to online and social media. “The way in which players communicate with fans is through their social media accounts, it’s never going to change, don’t try to stop it, maybe create some frameworks, some perimeters to work within. “If you are a coach – move with the times, embrace it, accept it… it is not going to change, it is 2019 and not 2001 or 1996,” he added. But Neville said that players such as Lingard needed to consider carefully what kind of content they put out to their followers. “I would like to think that someone is ringing him up this morning and explaining to him that that isn’t really going to help him,” he said. “He looks like he works really hard in every single game I have seen him. Why would you do something that is potentially going to bring you criticism? “We all make mistakes, I have made loads, just be sensible, just make the right calls. Is it going to help me? Is it going to make me a better player? Is it going to make people feel better about me? Is it going to actually earn me money? Is it going to make my coach like me more or less? “Ask yourself a few questions before you do things. If the answers come up negative then it’s probably best not doing it. It is just having that sort of mindset,” he added. Neville said social media antics of the modern player were “absolutely a lesser evil” than players who in the past drank heavily during the close-season and returned to pre-season training out of shape. “These players today run faster, they eat better, they drink less alcohol. They’re all running 13, 14km a match, some of them are running 1500m at high intensity and 20 years ago Gary Neville and his team mates weren’t doing that.” (Reporting by Simon Evans, editing by Pritha Sarkar) | 4cd98caf-dfa0-5506-866c-4a6a68866d6e | 04/07/23 | ||
| Spain's economic output eases in 2018, deficit drops below 3 percent | https://www.euronews.com/2019/03/29/spains-economic-output-eases-in-2018-deficit-drops-below-3-percent | 2019-03-29 16:34:19 | euronews | By Paul Day MADRID (Reuters) – The Spanish economy expanded at the slowest pace last year since 2014 while the budget deficit slipped below the | Europe,Business,Economy | https://static.euronews.com/articles/wires/04/79/46/18/1440x810_spains-economic-output-eases-in-2018-deficit-drops-below-3-percent.jpg | By Paul Day MADRID (Reuters) – The Spanish economy expanded at the slowest pace last year since 2014 while the budget deficit slipped below the Brussels-set target of 3 percent of gross domestic product for the first time since the 2008 financial crisis, data showed on Friday. While a weaker global economy weighed on Spanish exports at the end of last year, the economy has mostly resisted a slowdown across Europe’s larger economies as private consumption and public spending helped offset weaker external demand. The economy grew by 2.6 percent in 2018 from a year earlier after expanding 3.0 percent in 2017, while output rose by 0.6 percent in the fourth quarter, below the preliminary figure of 0.7 percent, the National Statistics Institute (INE) said. Gross domestic product expanded 2.3 percent in the October to December period from a year earlier, the lowest annual growth for a single quarter since the end of 2014, INE figures showed. The fourth quarter growth figure saw a positive contribution from domestic demand of 2.5 percentage points but external demand cut that by 0.2 percentage points, INE said. DEFLATING DEFICIT The figures also showed Spain emerged from the EU-set excessive deficit procedure last year after the public budget shortfall was cut to 2.6 percent of GDP, the lowest since before the start of the five-year economic slump that began in 2008. Spain fell into an almost five-year recession after the burst of a property bubble sent shock waves through the economy. Since 2013 it has returned to growth and economic output has outpaced much of the rest of Europe. However, Spain was forced in to a long period of spending cuts and tax hikes to battle a budget deficit that ballooned to over 11 percent on the back of the crisis, sparking market concerns that the country was unable to control its finances. The Bank of Spain has predicted growth of 0.6 percent quarter on quarter in the January to March period, but has forecast a slowdown through this year to end 2019 with annual growth of 2.2 percent. INE also revised the figures for the third quarter, cutting the quarterly growth to 0.5 percent, from 0.6 percent recorded previously, and raising third quarter year-on-year growth to 2.5 percent from a previously reported 2.4 percent. Separately, public debt fell to 97.2 percent of GDP at the end of last year, the Bank of Spain said on Friday, slightly above forecasts and a long way from the 38 percent of GDP registered before the onset of the financial crisis.

Brazil’s top indigenous chief was welcomed by opposition lawmakers with ovations and tribal chants at Congress, where he spoke to reporters through an interpreter. “Bolsonaro said I was not a leader, but it is he who is no leader and should go,” Raoni, 89, said at the news conference to chants of “Raoni yes, Bolsonaro no.” Raoni, an unmistakable Amazon icon with large lip plate, yellow macaw-feather headdress and bead necklaces, became known internationally as an environmental campaigner in the 1980s with musician Sting at his side. The Kayapo chief has become the symbol of the fight to stop deforestation in the Amazon and a group of environmentalists and anthropologists put his name forward as a candidate for the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize for his lifetime defence of the forest. In his speech to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, Bolsonaro took a swipe at Raoni as he rebuffed criticism of his slow response to combating fires in the rainforest and stated the Amazon was not part of a world heritage. “Indigenous leaders like Chief Raoni are often used as pawns by foreign governments in their media war to advance their interests in the Amazon,” Bolsonaro said. Bolsonaro wants to develop the Amazon and assimilate its indigenous people by allowing mining and farming on their reserves. At the UN he accused NGOs of wanting to keep the Amazon tribes living like “cavemen.” Raoni made it clear his people want to continue living as they always have on the ancestral lands that are increasingly under threat of invasions by illegal loggers, miners and land grabbers since Bolsonaro took office in January. “My concern is for the environment. Today everyone is worried. My work is to preserve the forest for all, for the survival of my grandchildren, the reservation lands, the indigenous peoples and the environment.” Leftist PSOL party leader Ivan Valente said indigenous resistance was a roadblock to Bolsonaro’s plans to open up the Amazon to development. “He is a national hero and known abroad as the greatest defender of the forest,” Valente said. “That is why they fear the name Raoni,” he said.

Financial | Europe | https://static.euronews.com/articles/wires/04/20/14/31/1440x810_leicester-sign-midfielder-maddison-from-norwich-city.jpg | (Reuters) – Leicester City have signed midfielder James Maddison from second-tier Norwich City on a five-year deal, the Premier League club said on Wednesday. Financial details of the deal were not disclosed but reports in the British media suggest the deal was worth around 20 million pounds ($26.35 million). The 21-year-old scored 15 goals and made eight assists in 49 games for Norwich in all competitions last season. “Leicester just seems like the right fit for me,” Maddison told the club website. “I’ve got a good feel about the club and I can’t ignore that, in my head and my heart. I felt like this was the right place for me to be, so I’m delighted and can’t wait to get started.” He arrives at the King Power Stadium as manager Claude Puel’s third close season signing after Portuguese full-back Ricardo Pereira and Northern Ireland international defender Jonny Evans.

Saying that Islamic militant groups in the two countries continue to pose a “serious threat” to the United States, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he had introduced an amendment to a broader Middle East Security bill urging a “continued commitment” until al Qaeda, Islamic State and other groups are defeated. “We’re not the world’s policemen, but we are the leader of the free world, and it’s incumbent upon the United States to lead, to maintain a global coalition against terror and to stand with our partners,” McConnell said in a speech in the Senate. The measure would be an amendment to a broader Middle East security bill being debated in the Senate. That bill, which includes fresh sanctions on Syria and a measure combating the Boycott, Divest and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel, advanced in a procedural vote on Monday. There was no immediate word on when the Senate might vote on whether to pass the bill, including the amendment. To become law, it would also have to pass the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives and be signed by Trump, or overcome a Trump veto if he will not sign. Trump’s administration has announced plans to bring all U.S. forces home from Syria, saying that the Islamic State militant group had been defeated. Separately on Monday, Trump’s director of national intelligence, Dan Coats, told a Senate hearing on worldwide risks that Islamic State remains a threat. On Monday, a U.S. special envoy said the United States and the Taliban have sketched the outlines for an eventual peace accord to end 17 years of war in Afghanistan. However, there was no sign the group had accepted key U.S. demands such as committing to a ceasefire before a withdrawal of U.S. troops.

| Markets may be signalling rising recession risk - Fed study | https://www.euronews.com/2018/08/27/markets-may-be-signalling-rising-recession-risk-fed-study | 2018-08-27 19:34:19 | euronews | SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – A narrowing gap between short-term and long-term borrowing costs could be signalling heightened risk of a U.S. recession, researchers at the | Business,Economy | https://static.euronews.com/articles/wires/04/30/95/70/1440x810_markets-may-be-signalling-rising-recession-risk-fed-study.jpg | SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) – A narrowing gap between short-term and long-term borrowing costs could be signalling heightened risk of a U.S. recession, researchers at the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank said in a study published on Monday. The research relies on an in-depth analysis of the gap between the yield on three-month and 10-year U.S. Treasury securities, a gap that like other measures of short-to-long-term rates has narrowed in recent months. Several Fed officials have cited this flattening yield curve as a reason to stop raising interest rates, since historically each time it inverts, with short-term rates rising above long-term rates, a recession follows. The study, published in the San Francisco Fed’s latest Economic Letter, bolsters that view. “In light of the evidence on its predictive power for recessions, the recent evolution of the yield curve suggests that recession risk might be rising,” wrote San Francisco Fed research advisers Michael Bauer and Thomas Mertens. Still, they noted, “the flattening yield curve provides no sign of an impending recession” because long-term rates, though falling relative to short-term rates, remain above them. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note <US10YRT=RR> ON Monday was about three-quarters of a percentage point higher than the yield on the three-month note <US3MT=RR>. That is a “comfortable” distance from actual inversion, which is the true signal of a recession, they wrote. The Fed is expected to continue raising rates for at least the next couple of quarters, though markets expect it to raise rates just once next year, while Fed officials expect to raise them three times. Other researchers both inside and outside the Fed have cited the build-up of bonds at the Fed and other central banks since the global financial crisis as one reason to doubt the signalling power of an inverted yield curve. That is because the large bond-holdings may be pushing down long-term rates. Similarly, investor preference for U.S. debt, seen as low-risk, may also be driving down yields on long-term Treasuries and distorting the yield curve, making it less reliable as an indicator of a coming recession. A recent paper from researchers at the Washington-based Fed board looked at a different part of the yield curve and found little cause for concern. The debate is likely to continue, as rarely does one study settle any matter in macroeconomics. (Reporting by Ann Saphir; Editing by Dan Grebler) | 3a1aa568-83ab-5383-bf75-2ef42d8cf5f2 | 04/07/23 |
