France Heads to World Cup Final, Man City Signs Mahrez for £60 Million,
Federer Out at Wimbledon and Sagan Scores Stage 5 Win of Tour de France
France defeated Belgium 1-0 to advance to the FIFA
World Cup final yesterday with Samuel Umtiti scoring the headed goal that
decided the game. FIFA.com quotes France team reporter Adrien Gingold on the
victory:
“France
continue their brilliant showing as they avoided falling into Belgium's trap.
After the Red Devils had dominated the first half, largely thanks to an awesome
Eden Hazard, France took responsibility and controlled the match in the second.
Didier Deschamps' team has many faces to it, but they are all smiling now.”
This marks the third time France
has made it to the finals at the FIFA World Cup, after only winning the
tournament once in 1998 on home soil. They will face either England or Croatia
on Sunday, depending on who wins today’s game.
Manchester City has signed Riyad
Mahrez for £60 million ($80 million USD) according to a report from the Associated Press. Mahrez previously played for Leicester
City and was voted “player of the year” in England in 2016.
“I am so
pleased to have joined City, a side playing great football under Pep Guardiola.
They’re redefining the English game and I wanted to be a part of it,” Mahrez
said on City’s website.
Roger Federer
has been eliminated at Wimbledon after losing to South Africa’s Kevin Anderson
2-6, 6-7 (5), 7-5, 6-4, 13-11. This will be Anderson’s first Wimbledon
semi-final and he will face either Milos Raonic from Canada or John Isner from
the United States.
In the Women’s
Singles, Serena Williams will face German Julia Goerges on Thursday, and
Latvian Jelena Ostapenko will square off against another German Angelique
Kerber.
The AP reports that Peter Sagan has won the fifth stage of the Tour de France
today, which is the race’s first hilly stage. This marks Sagan’s second victory
of the race.
