Former Borussia Dortmund and Wolfsburg winger Perisic returned to the Bundesliga on a season-long loan in August, yet he has made just nine Bundesliga starts for champions Bayern in 2019-20. A fractured ankle, suffered in February, has not helped Perisic’s cause, while Niko Kovac, his former Croatia coach, was replaced at Bayern by Hansi Flick in November. Perisic made a first appearance since his injury lay-off from the bench during Bayern’s 2-0 win over Union Berlin on Sunday and Rummenigge wants to see the 31-year-old in action across the final games of the campaign before making a call on his future....

WWE currently doesn’t have any plans for Bayley at WrestleMania 37, and her fans are livid about the situation. The former SmackDown Women’s Champion was one of the biggest stars of WWE’s pandemic era in 2020, so it’s surprising that WWE failed to find a spot for her on the WrestleMania 37 card. Here’s what Bayley had to say about her WrestleMania status: Watch the full clip below: Bayley has been left on the sidelines in recent weeks, as the SmackDown Women’s Championship picture is focused on Sasha Banks and Bianca Belair....

Yale out-rebounded Baylor 38-32. It’s not an eye-popping statistic. One that most certainly did not warrant a question in the postgame press conference. But lo and behold, Taurean Prince was asked “how does Yale out-rebound Baylor?” MORE: Worst choke jobs | Why Rico Gathers should have been next He provided the perfect answer. Baylor actually out-rebounded Yale on the offensive glass. Rebounding played a very small role in the outcome of game....

Luhrmann has built a brilliant career by taking genres young audiences largely dread, if they know them at all–Elizabethan drama, movie musicals and now opera–and reinventing them with passionate, kinetic style. The Australian director’s first film, “Strictly Ballroom,” gave a rumba competition more bounce than a Gwen Stefani video. His next, “Romeo + Juliet,” adapted Shakespeare for a generation raised on MTV. Last year’s Oscar-winning “Moulin Rouge” beamed a dozen pop songs a century back in time....

Tala Halawa, who was a Palestinian affairs specialist for BBC Monitoring, was fired from her position last month after a pro-Israel watchdog organization called the Honest Reporting group called out a series of tweets Halawa had written in 2014 during the Gaza conflict, three years before she had been hired by the BBC. “#Israel Is more #Nazi than #Hitler ! Oh, #hitlerWasRight #IDF go to hell. #PrayForGaza” read one of her tweets dated July 20 2014....

The current Indian coaching setup comprises of Anil Kumble as the head coach, Sanjay Bangar as the batting coach and Ramakrishnan Sridhar as the fielding coach.

The 58-year-old Bauza, appointed on Monday, boasted a strong season at Brazilian club Sao Paulo, which he coached to the semi-finals of the Copa Libertadores, reports Xinhua. A string of Argentine coaches including Diego Simeone of Atletico Madrid, Jorge Sampaoli of Sevilla and Mauricio Pochettino of Tottenham Hotspur reportedly declined the job.

The champions started the match two points behind Lucien Favre’s men but ran roughshod in a dazzling opening 45 minutes at the Allianz Arena. Mats Hummels nodded the hosts into a precious early lead before a fellow former Dortmund player, Robert Lewandowski, doubled the advantage, punishing Dan-Axel Zagadou’s error in the 17th minute as he clinically tucked away his 200th Bundesliga goal. Bayern were relentless going forward and their dominance was further rewarded late in the half as Javi Martinez and Serge Gnabry added two more in just over two minutes to send Niko Kovac’s men marching towards a pivotal three points....

The Bavarians outclassed last year’s Europa League winners Eintracht Frankfurt 6-1 on their own turf last time around. Having allowed Robert Lewandowski to leave, Julian Nagelsmann’s men looked sharp and raring to go for the new campaign. Bayern were eager to continue with their strong start. Wolfsburg, on the other hand, needed a late equalizer to earn a point against Werder Bremen in their last encounter. Niko Kovac’s men were eager to try and earn a point from what was bound to be a tough game in Munich....

Two goals from Robert Lewandowski at the start of both halves put Bayern firmly in the driving seat. Although Koln threatened for a short spell to take the game to Bayern, they weren’t able to create too many real chances to trouble Manuel Neuer in goal. Bayern were able to wrest control in midfield with Corentin Tolisso, Joshua Kimmich, and Philippe Coutinho combining. Benjamin Pavard and Lucas Hernandez were also keen to step up and support their midfielders, which caused a few problems with the likes of Jhon Cordoba finding spaces in behind, but Bayern managed to keep them at bay....

Europe Team of the Season so far Brandt has developed into a key figure at Leverkusen since joining the club from Wolfsburg in 2013 and has been linked with a move to a bigger side on more than one occasion in recent months. The 20-year-old is in no rush to move on, though, even if he is keeping all his options open. “I do not have a set career plan....

Three years ago, Baylor was without a home. Three years ago, Baylor’s best hope to stay relevant in the fluid and frenetic world of conference expansion was Conference USA. Or the now defunct Big East. Or going it alone as an independent. “Our summer of discontent,” says Baylor president Ken Starr. Now look: drive south down I-35, roll up one of those rare hills in Central Texas and see what Art Briles built rise before your eyes....

RELATED: Bayonetta 3: How Long to Beat Bayonetta 3 wouldn’t receive a huge gameplay blowout until the year of its release wherein the release date was also announced.

Liam Livingstone played a massive role in the win as he scored 77 off 39 balls, stitching a 114-run opening stand with Cameron Bancroft.
