Tottenham sacks coach Postecoglou just two weeks after Europa League win
London, June 7 (UNI) Tottenham Hotspur sacked coach Ange Postecoglou, just 16 days after he led the team to its first trophy in 17 years with a 1-0 victory over Manchester United in the Europa League final. The club's decision came amid a dire Premier League season, which saw 59-year-old Postecoglou's side finish 17th in the table after losing 22 out of 38 matches. "Following a review of performances and after significant reflection, the club can announce that Ange Postecoglou has been relieved of his duties," the club stated in a release on Friday. The statement expressed "extreme gratitude" to the Australian for becoming only the third coach to win a European title with Tottenham, but clarified that "our decision is not based on emotions tied to this achievement." "It is crucial that we are able to compete on multiple fronts and believe a change of approach will give us the strongest chance for the coming season and beyond." "We have made what we believe is the right decision to give us the best chance of success going forward," added the club. Brentford coach Thomas Frank is widely considered the frontrunner to succeed Postecoglou, with Bournemouth's Andoni Iraola also a potential candidate. UNI/XINHUA BM

Major stadium disasters over the years - a timeline of tragic incidents in sport
Royal Challengers Bengaluru's maiden Indian Premier League title triumph turned tragic when 11 people lost their lives in a stampede during victory celebrations outside the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The deceased had gathered around the stadium, waiting for entry inside to catch a glimpse of the winning RCB team, but the uncontrollable crowd resulted in the fatalities as several scores of people got injured. There have been similar tragic incidents in sport involving fans across countries, either caused by a stampede, clashes with the police, or structural collapses inside a stadium. Happy Valley Racecourse fire (1918) More than a century ago, Hong Kong witnessed a horrific fire at the Happy Valley Racecourse which claimed more than 600 lives. Several accounts of the tragedy online suggest that it was caused when the stands at the club, made largely of bamboo and wood, collapsed and caught fire after coming in contact with food stalls at the venue. Estadio Nacional disaster (1964) Lima was hosting Argentina in an Olympic qualifying football match. Argentina was leading when an equaliser was disallowed by the referee. This sparked spectators throng the field in anger which saw the local police resort to tear gas. According to The Guardian, at least 263 people, including women and children, lost their lives. Hillsborough disaster (1989) One of the most fatal stadium incidents in Britain's history, the Hillsborough disaster took place in April 1989 during an FA Cup semifinal match between Liverpool and Nottingham Forest. It occurred when thousands of fans, trying to enter the stadium, were asked to wait in a small waiting pen. Due to paucity of space and overcrowding, 97 people lost their lives, many due to suffocation. Indonesia stadium tragedy (2022) At least 174 people died at an Indonesian football stadium when thousands of angry home fans invaded the pitch and police responded with tear gas that triggered a stampede. The tragedy in the city of Malang, which also left 180 injured, was one of the world's deadliest sporting stadium disasters. Arema FC supporters at the Kanjuruhan stadium stormed the pitch after their team lost 3-2 to the visiting team and bitter rival, Persebaya Surabaya. Police, who described the unrest as 'riots', said they tried to force fans to return to the stands and fired tear gas after two officers were killed. Liverpool parade (2025) Several Liverpool supporters were recently severely injured when a van rammed into them during celebrations surrounding the team winning England's Premier League this season for a record-tying 20th top-flight title. As the parade was wrapping up, a minivan turned down a cordoned-off street just off the parade route and ploughed into the sea of fans wrapped in their red Liverpool scarves, jerseys and other memorabilia. A video on social media showed the van strike a man, tossing him in the air, before veering into a larger crowd, where it ploughed a path through the group and pushed bodies along the street before coming to a stop. According to BBC, more than 100 people were left injured.

Soccer-Norway dare to dream big again after a quarter century of heartbreak
June 7 - After a quarter of a century of near misses and heartbreak, Norway's rout of Italy in their World Cup qualifier has reignited the country's hope of a return to international football's biggest stage. There was little doubt that Norway were the better team on Friday as they easily dominated Italy in Oslo, pushing on until the scoreboard read 3-0 and taking a big step towards next year's World Cup. For supporters of the Norwegian team, the result has sparked a glimmer of hope in hearts that have been broken many times over the past decades. Norway have not participated in an international football tournament since the European Championship in 2000, which was hosted in Belgium and the Netherlands. There have been many close calls since then, with the margins consistently going against the squad, but now there is a shift in attitude after Norway dominated against the four-times world champions. "I am 100% sure", former Norway, Denmark and Iceland coach Age Hareide told newspaper VG when asked if Norway would go to the World Cup. SOLID STATISTICS Norway are in pole position in Group I with nine points out of nine and a goal surplus of 10. Israel, Estonia and Moldova are the other nations in the group. The Football Meets Data statistics platform gives Norway a 77% chance of winning the group and qualifying directly for the tournament hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Key striker Erling Haaland, who put himself on the scoresheet against Italy, agreed with the statistics. "We are too good not to play in championships. I will play both the World Cup and the European Championship. Not to put pressure on myself but I will," he told Norwegian broadcaster NRK. While World Cup fever in Norway is reaching a point not seen since 1998, when Norway last participated, manager Stale Solbakken, wise from experience, is lowering expectations. "It is a coach's misfortune that I have to concentrate on the next match, so you can enjoy yourselves and ask those questions. I would have liked to say that it was 100% certain but I can't," he told reporters after Friday's game.
