Real Madrid defeated newly-promoted Real Oviedo 3-3 to claim the win in the La Liga title game. Kylian Mbappe scored twice in each half before Vinicius added a late third to tie the game.

The arrival of the 15-time European champions on Sunday marked a grand occasion for Oviedo, who has been unable to do so for almost a quarter of a century.

In place of Rodrygo Goes and club captain Dani Carvajal, who both returned from injury, in Madrid’s opening 1-0 victory over Osasuna, coach Xabi Alonso made a few notable changes to his starting lineup.

However, in his half-hour cameo, Vinicius responded with an assist and a goal.

Franco Mastantuono, an Argentine teenager sensation, made his Los Blancos debut in a different way.

The 18-year-old showed off his explosive dribbling ability early on when he burst past two defenders inside the Oviedo box before going down and appealingly gazing at the uninterested referee.

Leander Dendoncker attempted to stop Thibaut Courtois with a chipped effort in the 23rd minute after making a surprisingly unusual foray forward on a through ball. The Belgian shot-stopper quickly recovered the ball from the sky after a hasty retreat.

When Madrid almost won, goalkeeper Aaron Escandell superbly saved an Arda Guler drive from inside the box.

On 37 minutes, the Turkish international turned provider when he drilled a pass into Mbappe’s feet, which the Frenchman welcomed on the turn before slamming Escandell.

After Madrid’s Aurelien Tchouameni appeared to follow through on Dendoncker when he returned possession for his side in the build-up, the goal was met by irate protests from the home side.

Five minutes into the second period, Madrid almost doubled their lead when a defensive error saw a clearance slit straight into the hands of a grateful Escandell.

Vinicius and Brahim Diaz made way for Rodrygo and the lively Mastantuono shortly after the hour.

When Diaz’s cushioned pass found the Uruguayan inside the box, he immediately had a gilt-edged chance, but Escandell saved the ball with a fingertip save to keep the score at 1-0.

On 81 minutes, Kwasi Sibo struck the post for Oviedo just outside the bounds of wildening the home support, with Courtois rooted to the spot.

That chance brought Madrid to life. After two minutes, Vinicius Jr. won the ball and headed in the direction of the box before slipping a covert pass to Mbappe, who slotted home first.

Diaz found the Brazilian in space in the 93rd minute, and he slipped his composed finish home in the final seconds.

Alonso, the manager of Real Madrid, expressed his gratitude for the team’s impressive talent.

The squad includes more than 20 players, according to the statement. They must feel significant to everyone. When asked why Vinicious Jr. had started on the bench, he responded, “I make decisions that are good for the team”.

We are seeing what we’re doing well and what we need to improve, the author says. Good feelings are expressed.

Escandell, the goalkeeper for Real Oviedo, lamented the “mistakes” his team committed in an interview with DAZN following the game.

“We didn’t compete as we believed we could in the first half.” He claimed that mistakes cost a lot in comparison to these teams. I want to thank the fans who, in my opinion, set a record for the number of fans.

Villarreal also defeated Girona 5-0 at home thanks to Tajon Buchanan’s hat-trick to open his La Liga account.

Girona, who played Champions League football last season, is bottom of the table with seven goals conceded and none scored as a result of a second consecutive defeat to start the season.

Real Sociedad rallied to earn a point against Espanyol after half-time with a 2-0 lead.

In eight second-half minutes, Sociedad were led by Pere Milla and Javi Puado before Ander Barrenetxea and Orri Oskarsson responded.

According to reports of administration plans to send National Guard soldiers to the Midwestern city, Democratic leaders in the United States are ecstatic that President Donald Trump has the authority to send US troops there.

Trump, a Republican, has stated that he would likely expand the federal forces’ deployment to other cities, including Chicago, to oversee policing in Washington, D.C. He also suggested considering sending troops to Democratic-run Baltimore in Maryland on Sunday.

Hakeem Jeffries, the leader of the Democratic House of Representatives, decried plans to send federal forces to Chicago on Sunday. In Chicago, crime rates, including murders, have decreased recently.

According to Jeffries, “Donald Trump might try to drop federal troops into the city of Chicago has no basis or authority,” he told CNN.

The states are given the authority to policing according to the US Constitution.

The Pentagon has been making plans for a possible troop deployment in Chicago, according to a report released on Saturday by The Washington Post.

The push was quickly rejected by Democratic governor of Illinois, where Chicago is located.

According to a statement from JB Pritzker, “Donald Trump is attempting to manufacture a crisis, politicize Americans who serve in uniform, and continue abusing his power to distract from the pain he is causing working families.”

Trump criticized Maryland’s Democratic Governor Wes Moore for the city’s high crime rates, and criticized the governor there for sending troops there.

The Baltimore police department reported a double-digit decrease in gun violence in July as compared to the previous year. The mayor claims that this year saw the fewest homicides in over 50 years in the city.

Trump stated on his social media platform, Truth Social, on Sunday, “If Wes Moore needs assistance, I will send in the “troops,” which are currently being done in nearby DC, and quickly clean up the Crime.”

Trump has characterized major cities, which are almost entirely run by Democrats, as rife with crime, drugs, and homelessness.

Some rural conservative beliefs toward liberal cities were echoed by that perception.

At Trump’s request, several Republican governors earlier this month sent hundreds of National Guard troops to Washington. Despite official data showing a decrease in crime in the city, the president has claimed that the city is in the grip of a crime wave.

Trump attributed his deployment of troops and hundreds of federal law enforcement personnel to the lack of any supporting evidence in the US capital on Sunday.

Critics of the US president have argued that Washington’s crackdown may serve as a test for the US cities’ continued militarisation.

Trump has far more authority over the District of Columbia, which is not a part of a US state, than he does over Chicago and Baltimore.

A provision in Title 10 of the US Code, a federal law that specifies the duties of the US armed forces, allows the president to deploy National Guard units to repel invasions, halt a rebellion, or put the law into effect, is included.

Governor Gavin Newsom’s objections led to the use of Section 12406, which Trump cited when he sent National Guard units to California earlier this year to protest.

Trump might argue that the military presence is justified by local laws that prohibit city officials from cooperating with federal immigration agents in Chicago.

Organisers said tens of thousands of people have marched through Australia’s major cities and towns to demand that aid be used to save Palestinians who are battling hunger and dying.

The group Palestine Action reported that more than 40 demonstrations took place on Sunday in various Australian states, including Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne, with significant turnouts.

We want more than just talk from our politicians. We have already accomplished this,” according to one of the protest’s organizers in Brisbane’s eastern city, Remah Naji.

“Now, we demand that we take the same actions that we did during the genocide.” We are also required to stop and punish genocide when it occurs because we are signatories of the Genocide Convention.

On Sunday, protests against Israel’s war and hunger campaign were also held in a number of other nations.

Protesters in Australia’s largest cities rallied in cities of all sizes nationwide to demand sanctions against Israel and a stop to arms trade with the nation, which has been accused of carrying out a genocide by leading human rights organizations.

More than 300,000 people are thought to have taken part in the demonstrations, according to organizers.

As rallygoers chanted “free, free Palestine” in Sydney, organiser Josh Lees claimed Australians were out in force to “demand that our government sanction this genocide in Gaza and demand that our government put an end to this.”

Protesters gathered outside the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne and chanted “sanction Israel now.”

Nour Salman, an organizer, argued that tougher sanctions against Israel must be a part of Australia’s plans to recognize Palestinian statehood.

Enough is sufficient, they say. There are no buts or maybes, Salman said.

In Perth, a city in the southwest, thousands of people gathered as well.

According to Friends of Palestine Western Australia organizer Nick Everett, the government’s representative, “our government cannot claim to support human rights while supporting an apartheid regime.”

“Trade unions, civil society, and communities across the country are uniting to demand action.” Palestine is in awe.

Enough is enough, simply put.

The Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IFSPC), the world’s most influential authority on food crises, announced famine in Gaza City after the IPC, the IFPS, the world’s leading authority on food crises, announced the protests.

Nearly two million people have been displaced in Gaza as a result of Israeli forces’ intensified attacks and bombardments.

More than half a million people in Gaza, or roughly a quarter of its population, are at risk of dying from malnutrition, according to the IPC report.

On Sunday, protests in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza were held all over the world, including in Senegal, Kenya, Malaysia, and Belgium. In the United Kingdom and Sweden, there were demonstrations over the weekend.

In response to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s request, thousands of people gathered at a mass rally in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s capital, to demand that the group of activists bring humanitarian aid to Gaza later this month.

Demonstrators in Senegal’s capital Dakar criticized Israeli attacks on Palestinians in the region and demanded that the Gaza Strip’s famine-stricken area be given humanitarian aid.

Hunderte of bikers gathered in Nairobi to chant “Free Palestine.” Many decried Israel’s deadly assault on the international community.

According to Nairobi-based journalist Catherine Soi, protesters are standing with Palestinians in Gaza.

They have witnessed parents being killed as they travel to get food for their families, according to Soi, who described the horrific images of children who are starving. They are saying, “Enough is enough, here.”

Since the Israeli-Palestine conflict started on October 7, 2023, at least 62, 263 Palestinians have died, according to Gaza’s health ministry.

At least 2, 000 Palestinians were trying to secure meager food packages at the Israeli- and US-backed GHF aid distribution sites, which Palestinian officials called “death traps.”

According to Shincheonji Church of Jesus, a South Korea-based religious group, over 4,000 members of the church who recovered from COVID-19 are willing to donate plasma for developing a new treatment.

Mr. Man Hee Lee, founder of the Shincheonji Church, said that members of the church are advised to donate plasma voluntarily. “As Jesus sacrificed himself with his blood for life, we hope that the blood of people can bring positive effects on overcoming the current situation,” said Mr. Lee.
