PARIS (Reuters) - Liverpool midfielders Thiago Alcantara and Fabinho are fit and ready to feature in the Champions League final against Real Madrid, manager Juergen Klopp said on Friday. Thiago was substituted with a muscle issue in the first half of Sunday's final Premier League game against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Fabinho has not played since hobbling off with a hamstring tweak during the 2-1 win over Aston Villa on May 10. Klopp, who last week was pessimistic about Thiago and said he would likely miss the clash in Paris on Saturday, broke the good news to Liverpool fans at a news conference at the Stade de France. "It looks good for both Thiago and Fabinho," Klopp told reporters. "Fabinho has trained normal, Thiago trained with the team yesterday and will train today and then we'll go from there. Mood is very good, very excited about being here. Getting a feeling for the stadium and the location." A new pitch was installed at the Stade de France earlier in the week … [Read more...] about Soccer-Thiago and Fabinho fit and ready for Champions League final, Klopp says

Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards and his top lawyers privately watched a key video of Black motorist Ronald Greene drawing his final breaths in his deadly 2019 arrest six months before prosecutors even knew the footage existed. While the Democratic governor has distanced himself from allegations of a cover-up in the explosive case by contending evidence was promptly turned over to authorities, an Associated Press investigation found that neither Edwards, his staff nor the state police he oversees acted urgently to get the crucial footage into the hands of those with the power to charge the white troopers seen stunning, punching and dragging Greene. The video shows a bruised and bloody Greene going limp and drawing his final breaths — critical moments and audio that are absent from other footage turned over. It wouldn't reach prosecutors until nearly two years after Greene’s May 10, 2019, death on a rural roadside near Monroe. Now three years have passed and still no … [Read more...] about Governor saw deadly arrest video months before prosecutors

Despite point guard Kyle Lowry being limited by a balky hamstring and despite a shooting slump by guard Max Strus, Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra opted against a lineup change for Friday night’s Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals at TD Garden. “These are tough decisions. We’re going with that lineup,” he said, with his team going into the night down 3-2 to the Boston Celtics in the best-of-seven series. “It’s been a really successful lineup.” The Heat have started that lineup throughout the playoffs when injuries have not gotten in the way of opening with Bam Adebayo, P.J. Tucker, Jimmy Butler, Lowry and Strus. “This is a fast-moving series,” Spoelstra said. “And that happens with two competitive teams: Who can get to who? Who can get to their strengths more often? Who can take the other team out of their strengths? “It’s a fine line between doing those things and making adjustments. But that’s part of the deal.” The reserve rotation, though, remained altered, … [Read more...] about Heat’s Spoelstra sticks with same starters vs. Celtics; groin strain keeps Tyler Herro out again
