Crystal Palace, Player of the Match winner Chris Richards 'embraced a tough game' in draw at Chelsea
USMNT center back Chris Richards and his Premier League club Crystal Palace are off to a strong start to this season, adding to last week's Community Shield triumph with a 0-0 draw at Chelsea on Sunday. Richards was named Player of the Match in the draw, nothing new for one of the Eagles' stars during last season's drive to the FA Cup. The 25-year-old is set for a heavy workload this season as Palace compete in the Conference League and may still have to bed in a new back if Marc Guehi skips town before the end of the transfer window. RECAP, HIGHLIGHTS — Chelsea 0-0 Crystal Palace But Richards says manager Oliver Glasner has imparted grit and focus into this side, and it's paying dividens around Selhurst Park. 'We try to block out the outside noise and put in good performances,' Richards said before accepting his POTM award. 'I think that's what we did today. Now we have Europe on Thursday and hopefully we can put in a good performance.' Europe has been a bit of a potential distraction, as Palace have been waiting to see whether they'd get the Europa League berth provided by winning the FA Cup or if they'd be dropped to the Conference League following a contentious summer drama involving the Eagles, Nottingham Forest, UEFA, and the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Chelsea provided further reason to focus on Week 1, as the Club World Cup champs would provide just as stiff a test as Liverpool delivered in the Community Shield. 'One thing we talked about was embracing a tough game, embracing the toughness Chelsea was going to bring,' Richards said. 'It wasn't perfect but as long as we could complete a clean sheet it would be good.' Richards said the Eagles will count a draw as a good start to the season, and they've already got that preseason silverware in their pocket. Now they turn their attention to Thursday against Norwegian side Fredrikstad in a Conference League playoff game. Then? A combustible affair with Forest on Sunday. Palace will surely be up for it.

Real Betis: Nobel Mendy's transfer to Rangers falls through
The deal between Betis and Rangers collapsed despite advanced talks. Nobel Mendy / Real Betis Nobel Mendy will not be joining Rangers after all. The Senegalese defender's transfer from Real Betis has collapsed following the results of his medical examination. Both clubs had already agreed on a financial package worth €3 million. The 21-year-old defender seemed set for a future in Scotland after several days of intensive negotiations between Real Betis and Rangers. The Andalusian and Scottish club officials had reached a financial compromise, including a 20% sell-on clause in favor of the Seville side. What went wrong? As planned, Nobel Mendy underwent his medical in Barcelona on August 13 before heading to Glasgow. But, unexpectedly, the transfer process came to a halt after this check-up. According to several sources, it was the medical examination results that convinced Rangers to pull the plug. The Ibrox management decided to abandon the negotiations after reviewing the outcome of the player's physical tests. This surprise decision now casts doubt on the Senegalese defender's immediate future, as he remains in Seville. Manuel Pellegrini had already excluded Nobel Mendy from his plans for the upcoming season. The Chilean coach had left the defender out of pre-season preparations and recent team training sessions, confirming Real Betis' intention to part ways with the former Paris FC player. What next for the Senegalese international? To be continued…
