The game was developed by Josh Wardle, a New York-based software developer originally from Britain, who told Newsweek he wanted to “make a game that my partner would enjoy playing.” Players are tasked with working out a five-letter word each day, in six guesses or less. After each prediction the letters change color, showing how accurate the guess was. If a letter turns green it means it is both in the word and in the correct position....

If you are not already a hopeless Wordle addict, then you will at least be aware of it thanks to cultural osmosis. Irrespective of what circles you move in, you will likely have seen a few mutuals sharing multi-coloured grids on social media, boasting about their latest score on this new website. In short, it’s comparable to the pen-and-paper game hangman, in the sense that you have to try and guess a word (which is always 5 letters long) within a certain amount of attempts....

The Senegal international has scored two goals this year which includes a ferocious effort against Manchester City as the Reds ended the unbeaten run of Pep Guardiola’s side. And the gaffer is pleased to see the 25-year-old return to his ‘world class’ self. “At Burnley he scored a fantastic goal but it was not a world-class game of Sadio,” Klopp told club website. “Since then it has clicked and he is now really back....

The Harbour City club have swept all before them in 2016-17, breaking a raft of A-League records - including the all-time points tally, but must overcome Melbourne Victory on Sunday to complete the premiership-championship double. Carney wouldn’t entertain the thought of defeat when speaking to reporters on Tuesday. “We will win and that’s it.

Arsenal to win any major trophy - 15/8 Arsene Wenger’s side emerged victorious in a FA Cup final clash with the Blues in May, having previously seen off Manchester City at the semi-final stage. They lifted the same trophy in 2014 and 2015, with those successes helping to lift Bellerin’s mood in an Instagram post picturing him in conversation with £46 million new boy Alexandre Lacazette....

The Gabon international who joined the Gunners from Borussia Dortmund for a club-record fee, capped his side’s mediocre performance with a penalty miss – after Ederson Moraes saved his strike. Aubameyang may be spared for not converting his kick, but his tame performance did not save him from hostility from football fans online.

The defender got on the end of Jesus Navas’ cross right on the stroke of half time, attempting to clear it acrobatically. However, he unwittingly guided the ball into his own net beyond a stunned T​hibaut Courtois, with City players wheeling away emphatically not believing their luck. And Twitter could likewise only celebrate what will be remembered as a special goal by Cahill, though not quite the way he intended....

With hundreds of millions all over the world turning in to watch the National Football League’s championship game, some of the soccer/football world’s biggest names took to Twitter to weigh in on the contest. One group particularly invested in the game was the U.S. women’s national team, as star center back Juilie Ertz is married to Eagles tight end Zach Ertz.

The 25-year-old joined the Reds in a club-record deal from Roma in June and continued with his brilliant run in front of goal after scoring a brace to help Jurgen Klopp ease past Southampton 3-0. Salah’s first and second goals at Anfield on Saturday, shattered Robbie Fowler’s record of eight goals in his first 12 Premier League games for Reds.

Several clips were shown in the video, showing what was said to her while she was at the bar, including one of a patron declaring that he is a racist.

The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) system was inducted into the English Premier League in the 2019-20 season. Since then, every major footballing league has adopted the system. VAR can play a major role in ruling out illegitimate goals or spot fouls in the build-up, things that are difficult for on-field officials to spot. Henry is on-board with the application of VAR in football but believes the system needs a lot of fine-tuning, especially when it comes to speed....

During the second set of the match, when the score was 3-3, Lisicki served at 30-30 with Andreescu close to the net. The German’s serve was returned straight towards Andreescu, who defended the ball at the net and hit another volley to keep them alive in the point. The Canadian defended for a third time when a volley came towards her, this time hitting the return further across the court....

Fitness influencer Hampton Liu, who creates content under the brand name Hybrid Calisthenics, routinely posts fitness tutorials for his audience across various social platforms with the aim of building a strong and supportive community. “I chose to use the word ‘calisthenics’ in my brand name because I believe it implies that we already have the power to improve ourselves,” Liu told Newsweek. “It feels like a lot of companies try to sell us our fitness through expensive products....

"Wide Right" is accepted college football lexicon because of the Florida State-Miami rivalry. Five kicks (there's also a "Wide Left" in there) have shaped four national championship runs and decided one BCS bowl. None of those kicks went Florida State's way. Wide Right I: No. 2 Miami 17, No. 1 Florida State 16 (1991) What happened: Florida State (10-0) and Miami (8-0) both came in undefeated, but Gerry Thomas missed a 34-yard field goal with 29 seconds remaining that would’ve given the Seminoles the win....

Kyrgios made a poor start to the match as he went down an early break, but fought back to level the proceedings. As he was serving in the ninth game, the Australian lost his cool with the crowd for apparently calling out just as he was tossing the ball. The 26-year-old yelled an obscenity, prompting the umpire to hand him a code violation. Kyrgios then ranted to the umpire, urging him to ask the crowd to stay silent....

The poll comes at a time when recently we saw Tfue, arguably one of the biggest Fortnite content creators, bid farewells to the game, admitting that grinding on a single game for more than 2-3 years is something that made him feel “burnt out”. However, as of 3rd September, Fortnite had a peak of 350 million players in the game according to a chart released by Statista. This number of players for Fortnite has seen a constant growth ever since its release in 2017....
