Tyreek Hill mocks iShowSpeed and takes aim at Noah Lyles
It all started with Tyreek Hill's $100,000 race challenge to iShowSpeed, which was set up to benefit his foundation if he won. Speed, who once ran against Noah Lyles himself, took the offer seriously and even showed up at the Dolphins' training camp. 'If you beat me, I won't say anything. You got it, what I'm saying?' he told Hill in person. But instead of racing, Hill ran off, prompting a stunned Speed to laugh and declare, 'He's scared!'

Hill later doubled down in a separate interview, flipping the narrative by saying, 'He's scared. Speed's scared.' The moment quickly went viral, especially after a clip surfaced showing Hill avoiding the race when Speed showed up ready.
The Noah Lyles rivalry escalates from social media banter to track reality
While his beef with Speed has comedic undertones, the challenge against Noah Lyles is much more serious. Lyles, who previously mocked Hill by holding up a sign reading 'Tyreek could never' after winning the 60m at the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix, fired a competitive shot that went straight to Hill's pride. Hill clapped back on X, saying, 'Get a load of this guy,' setting the stage for a potential 60-meter clash between NFL explosiveness and Olympic precision.
Fans are now clamoring for two high-profile races: one against the $10M YouTuber and the other against a world-class sprinter. While

may lack elite times—reportedly running just 11 mph—his charisma and fearlessness have made the challenge fun. Lyles, on the other hand, represents a real athletic test that could humble even the fastest NFL star.

Portugal beats Spain in penalty shootout to win Nations League
Munich: Cristiano Ronaldo hoisted up the Nations League trophy and "We Are The Champions" rang around the stadium after Portugal defeated Spain 5-3 in a penalty shootout in Munich on Sunday. Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa saved Alvaro Morata's fourth penalty for Spain, then Ruben Neves converted his team's fifth to seal the win after their match finished 2-2 after extra time. Morata was the only player to miss after seeing every player score their spot kicks before him. He was inconsolable. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like nhà container: Xu hướng nhà ở hiện đại và bền vững 2025 Visionary Echo Tìm Ngay Undo Ronaldo had kept Portugal in the game when he equalized in the 61st minute of regular time with his record-extending 138th international goal after Mikel Oyarzabal had given Spain a halftime lead. Oyarzabal squeezed the ball past Portugal goalkeeper Diogo Costa in the 45th after Pedri played him in. Live Events "It's a shame and it's tough, but with time it will be more appreciated," Oyarzabal said. "We struggled more in the second half, we were tired. The substitutions helped them. But we are proud of our team and we will fight to be close to winning a title again." Spain, still the European champion, failed to display the cohesion and fluency in attack that put five goals past France in the semifinal on Thursday. There was an element of fortune about the opening goal scored by Martin Zubimendi in the 21st when Portugal's defense failed to deal with Lamine Yamal's cross. Nuno Mendes leveled five minutes later when he drilled a low shot inside the far post. The 22-year-old left back was the player of the match - providing the cross that was deflected kindly for Ronaldo to score his equalizer, keeping Yamal in check, then confidently scoring his penalty in the shootout. Ronaldo was already off by then. He had gone off, exhausted, to standing ovations and a hug from coach Roberto Martinez in the 88th. In his previous game, Ronaldo led Portugal to its first win over Germany for 25 years. For Mendes and Paris Saint-Germain teammates Goncalo Ramos, Joao Neves and Vitinha, it was their second trophy in a little more than a week after winning the Champions League in the same stadium.

The Real Madrid star scored his 50th goal for France before setting up the other as Les Bleus rallied after a lethargic start. France coach Didier Deschamps had made his lack of enthusiasm for the game clear the day before, noting his team had little to gain. "The game is there, we'll play it," Deschamps had said. France was without injured PSG stars Ousmane Dembele and Bradley Barcola.

Simone Biles and Riley Gaines explosive feud explained as Danica Patrick weighs in: ‘Woke mind virus'
Danica Patrick has weighed in on Simone Biles and Riley Gaines' explosive feud. The 7-time Olympic gold medalist slammed the former swimmer in an X, formerly Twitter post over the weekend, calling her a 'sore loser.' She made the scathing remark in response to the 25-year-old's criticism of a Minnesota high school softball team's victory while being led by a trans pitcher. As the duo exchanged barbs on social media, former NASCAR driver Patrick took to social media to back Gaines. 'This issue has a shelf life. I truly believe common sense will prevail,' she said on Instagram Sunday. 'But until then, I am grateful for people like Riley Gaines who are making sure no one gets away with it. Not to mention the fact that she actually lived it,' the 43-year-old went on, adding, 'Defending men in women's sports is the woke mind virus and/or another issue that requires therapy. Either way, it is so irrational.' 'You're truly sick, all of this campaigning because you lost a race. Straight up sore loser,' Biles told Gaines in response to the latter's anti-trans post. 'You should be uplifting the trans community and perhaps finding a way to make sports inclusive OR creating a new avenue where trans feel safe in sports.' 'Maybe a transgender category IN ALL sports!! But instead… You bully them… One things for sure is no one in sports is safe with you around!!!!!' the 28-year-old added in her tweet, which has amassed over 50 million views so far. In a separate tweet, Biles told Gaines to 'bully someone your own size, which would ironically be a male.' Gaines quickly fired back with, 'This is actually so disappointing. It's not my job or the job of any woman to figure out how to include men in our spaces.' 'You can uplift men stealing championships in women's sports with YOUR platform. Men don't belong in women's sports and I say that with my full chest.' The Gaines for Girls podcast host uncovered a 2017 tweet from Biles that read, 'ahhhh good thing guys don't compete against girls or he'd take all the gold medals !!' The former swimmer quipped, 'Oop don't you hate it when your past self completely undermines your current nonsensical argument? How has 2025 Simone reconciled with the fact 2017 Simone was a 'truly sick bully' by her own standard?'
