Scottish Champions Celtic Suffer First Defeat At Dundee In 37 Years

By in News, sport-news

The Scottish champions’ shock 2-0 defeat to Celtic put a dent in their title defense on Sunday, sinking them to their first defeat at Dundee in 37 years.

Before the break, Celtic defender Cameron Carter-Vickers scored an own goal just before the break after Clark Robertson’s first-half header caused Brendan Rodgers’ side to fall behind.

After a disappointing season that saw Celtic fans eliminated from the Champions League qualifying stages, Celtic fans had disrupted the game by throwing hundreds of balls onto the field.

Since Tommy Coyne’s goal in 1988 was the only goal scored for the Dark Blues, Celtic have lost in the league for the first time at Dens Park.

Celtic were booed off at the end, but they are still five points clear of surprise rival Hearts when they face them at Tynecastle on Saturday.

Celtic will face Sturm Graz in a Thursday Europa League game before the trip to Edinburgh.

Fans of Bombard Pitch

After the first whistle, when Celtic fans started throwing different colored balls at the pitch, which caused a delay while they were cleared, the game came to a quick halt.

Celtic’s striker Kelechi Iheanacho took a quick shot to the outside of the post, but Robertson’s unmarked header from a Cameron Congreve corner gave Dundee the lead in the 17th minute.

As Celtic continued to put pressure on, Kieran Tierney and Yang Hyun-Jun both made errors.

However, Congreve skimmed past Celtic centre-back Liam Scales in stoppage time before heading over to Joe Westley to skim the ball in off the helpless Carter-Vickers.

After the break, Celtic midfielder Reo Hatate fired wide from the edge of the area before Ashley Hay, a substitute for Dundee, curled home from 12 yards.

Iheanacho was thwarted by Dundee goalkeeper Jon McCracken twice, but Celtic was unfortunate.

Referee Matthew MacDermid immediately pointed to the spot after Hatate’s shot appeared to be blocked by Paul Digby’s arm inside the Dundee area.

Sam Rivers, the bassist for Lipp Bizkit, shared heartwarming photos from a trip to London that were posted days before his sudden passing, at the age of 48 yesterday.

Just weeks before his death, Limp Bizkit bassist Sam Rivers shared a peaceful moment with fans online, posting a photo from a summer trip to London. The Instagram post, shared on August 22, showed the 48-year-old enjoying his trip in the capital.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day, the late musician said. In London with my favorite and the LB Fam, he wrote alongside the now-distant image, which has since evolved into a place for fans to leave their tributes, in the following: #limpbizkit #limpbizkitstyle #limpbizkitfamily #nothingbutlove.

The band confirmed Rivers’ death on Saturday, despite not revealing a cause of death. His bandmates described him as the group’s “heartbeat” and far more than just their bass player in a heartfelt statement.

“In Loving Sam Rivers’ Brother’s Name. Our brother was lost today. Our bandmate. Our heartbeat is.

Sam Rivers was pure magic, not just our bass player. The soul in every song, the harmony in every situation, and the peace in every song.

The tribute continued, “Sam brought a light and a rhythm that could never be replaced. From the first note we ever played together.” His heart was incredibly strong, his presence was unmatched, and his talent was effortless.

We shared so many beautiful, wild, and quiet moments, and each of them meant more to Sam because he was there.

He was a “once in a lifetime” type of person. A true legend of legends. And his spirit will remain present in every song, movement, and memory forever. Sam, we adore you.

“We’ll always have you with us.” Brother, please be easy. Your music is unending. — DJ Lethal, Wes, John, and others.

The band’s long-time turntablist, DJ Lethal, also posted a personal tribute to Rivers, urging fans to support the music he helped create.

Sam rivers is our love. At this time, please respect the family’s privacy. Sam can play Sam River basslines all day by giving him his flowers! We are shocked.

Rest in your brother’s power, please! You will continue to live on thanks to the lives you, through your music, your charitable work, and your friendships. We are devastated to enjoy life for the life of our species. It is not certain.

Rivers and drummer John Otto, both of whom were born in Jacksonville, Florida, co-founded Limp Bizkit in 1994. Wes Borland, a guitarist, and DJ Lethal later joined the band.

The band rose to fame as one of the most potent rock bands of the late 1990s and early 2000s with albums like Significant Other, Chocolate Starfish, and the Hot Dog Flavored Water. They received three Grammy nominations, a Billboard Music Award, and four platinum- or multi-platinum albums.

He resigned from the band in 2015 after being diagnosed with liver disease linked to excessive drinking. He joined Limp Bizkit in 2018 and continued to do so until his passing, two years later, after receiving a life-saving liver transplant.

Kohli, Rohit struggle as India lose to Australia in ODI Perth opener

In the first one-day international (ODI) at Perth Stadium that was impacted by the weather, Australia’s stand-in captain Mitchell Marsh put in a fine run of form on Sunday, scoring 46 not out and leading his nation to a seven-wicket victory over India.

India’s scorched 136-9 from 26 overs, which was interrupted four times by rain, gave the hosts a revised target of 131, which they had previously reached in 21.11 overs.

After India were introduced, the 42-person crowd in which watched Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli quickly awaited.

The former captains made their first appearance on national duty since winning the Champions Trophy in March after retiring from the game’s other formats with an eye on the 2027 World Cup.

Both of Australia’s pace bowlers struggled to find a footing, with Rohit edging Josh Hazlewood to second-guess on eight and Kohli diving Cooper Connolly for a duck in front of the backward-pointer.

“All of their batters are world-class and legendary players,” said spinner Matthew Kuhnemann, who recorded a 2-26 victory. To get wickets up front in one-day cricket, especially, makes a huge difference.

Gill, India’s captain, was cheaply fired.

When Shubman Gill tickled Nathan Ellis to wicketkeeper Josh Philippe, India was left reeling at 37-3 after two hours of light rain halted play.

When Shreyas Iyer (11) slashed Hazlewood to the fence, the crowd applauded sarcastically when the covers were removed. However, Philippe made a second leg-side catch in his subsequent over to get his revenge.

Kuhnemann and Mitch Owen maintained the pressure and stopped any momentum that Axar Patel (31) and KL Rahul (38), with the exception of Nitish Kumar Reddy’s rapid 19 from 11 balls.

Man-of-the-match Marsh spearheaded Australia’s response by hitting three sixes, continuing impressive form against South Africa and New Zealand, serving as Pat Cummins’ replacement whose Ashes hopes are uncertain due to a back injury.

Due to Josh Inglis and Alex Carey’s absence, Philippe started his first international series against India by bowling out to Arshdeep Singh in the deep. He supported his skipper with an aggressive 37.

Matt Renshaw scored 21 not out for his team, while Arshdeep, Axar, and Washington Sundar each took one wicket each.

“We knew we didn’t have that many runs,” Arshdeep said.

On Thursday, the series moves to Adelaide before moving to Sydney on Saturday.

‘Lost for words’, ‘England, get him in’ – how good is five-try Caluori?

On Saturday, the English rugby union might have welcomed a superstar.

Noah Caluori, a teen winger, scored five tries to help Saracens defeat Sale Sharks in their blatantly stunning full Premiership debut, 65-14.

The Sale defense struggled with Caluori’s 6′ 5″ frame repeatedly, both in the air and on the ground, due to his 6′ 5″ frame.

Sam Warburton, a former Wales captain, believes Steve Borthwick should call up the 19-year-old for the autumn internationals because he was so stunned.

In his capacity as a TNT Sports pundit, Warburton declared, “I haven’t seen a player this good in the air, ever, and he’s a teenager.”

After watching Caluori’s incredible performance, former England winger Chris Ashton, a different TNT pundit, declared he was “lost for words.”

Even former Sarries hero Ashton’s signature swan dive scoring celebration was emulated by Caluori, but Ashton doesn’t believe the teenager will take anything from him.

With a score of 101, Ashton compared his own status as the all-time top-flight try scorer, saying, “He’ll only need 20 games to get [my] record.”

He has shown some of his skill in the air, but you don’t see him very often gliding past players with ease. You might get one of his three or four really good tries [normally].

He’s in a great team, and Sale reduced his team to 14 men, but Sale had no idea how to handle his air conditioning skills in the first half. Five tries on your first try is… I have no words to describe. That is excellent.

Has he exceeded expectations in this regard?

Alex Sanderson, the Sale boss who had already lost some ground, could not hide his admiration.

“I don’t believe it could have been any better for him,” he said. Five attempts? If you look at the scoreline, he defeated us by himself,” Sanderson said.

His ceiling is “very high,” but he is “very balanced and sensible.”

It would be easy to see Caluori’s stunning display as a launch pad for a successful club and international rugby career. His future appears incredibly bright.

However, Saracens rugby director Mark McCall cautioned against exceedingly high expectations.

Everyone needs to take a breath, according to McCall, but Noah’s aerial ability is unique.

He is both a fantastic child and a very special player. He’s a very young, sage, and intelligent person who will undoubtedly attract a lot of attention.

He can handle that, but he isn’t yet the best player, by any means.

He is aware of the importance of improving. Although his ceiling is enormous, let’s take advantage of it and allow him to grow naturally.

McCall also cautioned Caluori that his burgeoning reputation must be guarded as well.

I’m going to learn from my teammates, I promise.

Caluori declared he would go over the experience as soon as he could after revealing his excitement over his night of work.

“I’m probably going to watch it back and wonder, how did this happen?” “,” Caluori told TNT.

“I merely wanted to make the most of it,” he said. We had a set goal as a team this week: returning to being ruthless, bouncing back to zero, and going once more, giving it our all.

When I told my roommates back home that they thought names like Maro Itoje were my current team-mates, I said. We as young people as possible are attempting to learn the most from them.

If Caluori maintains his form from Saturday, Itoje might well be his team-mate for both the club and the nation.

And that should occur sooner, than later, according to former Irish Lions captain Warburton.

He is almost undefendable, Warburton continued, “I can’t believe the height he can reach.”
