LONDON (AP) — Idrissa Gueye scored in the 86th minute to give Everton a 3-2 victory over Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday.Everton is unbeaten in its past three league games — with two wins — and has been inching up the table after barely avoiding relegation for two straight seasons.Sean Dyche’s team twice gave away the lead after goals by Vitalii Mykolenko and Abdoulaye Doucouré at Selhurst Park.Mykolenko powered in a header from Jack Harrison’s cross just 52 seconds after kickoff. Eberechi Eze equalized from the penalty spot four minutes later for midtable Palace.Doucouré made it 2-1 for the visitors shortly after the break before Odsonne Édouard leveled in the 73rd minute. Édouard tapped home from close range after defender James Tarkowski let Jefferson Lerma’s lobbed pass drop behind him. It bounced at the 6-yard box in front of goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.On the winner, Gueye collected Doucouré’s pass inside the penalty area and while sliding to his le...Saliba’s goal helps Arsenal beat Burnley 3-1 to climb into 2nd place in Premier League

LONDON (AP) — William Saliba scored his first goal of the season as Arsenal climbed into second place in the Premier League with a 3-1 home win over Burnley on Saturday despite finishing the game with 10 men. Saliba headed home a corner to restore Arsenal’s lead in the 57th minute, shortly after Josh Brownhill had equalized against the run of play at the Emirates. In a game that largely took place inside the Burnley half, Leandro Trossard opened the scoring just before the halftime break and Oleksandr Zinchenko made the game safe with a leaping volley in the 74th. That two-goal cushion proved comforting when substitute Fabio Vieira was sent off in the 83rd with a studs-up challenge on Brownhill.Arsenal bounced back from its first league loss of the season at Newcastle last weekend to move above Tottenham, which lost 2-1 at Wolverhampton earlier Saturday. The Gunners are level on 27 points with leader Manchester City, which visits Chelsea on Sunday.

SUN CITY, South Africa (AP) — Max Homa will take a one-shot lead into the final round of the Nedbank Golf Challenge after the American shot a 3-under 69 on Saturday.The eighth-ranked Homa had gone error free at the tournament until he bogeyed a par-3 fourth hole during his shaky start of the third round.But he recovered by making two birdies and holed a bunker shot for eagle on the par-5 10th hole at the Gary Player Country Club.“I hit the ball really well coming down the last nine or 10 holes,” Homa said. “I didn’t hole anything putting wise, but I made a nice bunker shot for eagle on ten which helped.”Frenchman Matthieu Pavon entered the day sharing the lead with Homa. He slid one shot back after his 70. Danish pair Nicolai Hojgaard and Thorbjorn Olesen are both two shots behind. Defending champion Tommy Fleetwood is six shots adrift in a share of eighth.Homa has six titles on the PGA Tour but has yet to get a win abroad. He is now in position to do that on Sunday.“It would be tre...Victor Lindelof’s goal eases the pressure on Ten Hag as Man United beats Luton 1-0

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Victor Lindelof’s goal eased the pressure on Erik ten Hag as Manchester United beat Luton 1-0 in the Premier League on Saturday. The center back swept home a 59th-minute winner at Old Trafford to secure back-to-back league wins for United for only the second time this season. United manager Ten Hag has come under increasing pressure after his team’s disappointing start to the campaign. But victory against Luton was a positive response to Wednesday’s Champions League defeat in Copenhagen. Lindelof was an unlikely goal scorer when the defender fired through a crowded penalty area after Marcus Rashford’s cross rebounded to him. Rasmus Hojlund had missed good chances in either half before the opener. A cause for concern for Ten Hag were injuries to Christian Eriksen and Hojlund, which required both to be substituted. But the priority was to get back to winning ways after a ninth defeat of the season against Copenhagen on Wednesday left ...Injuries reported after 3-car crash on CO 119

The empty sidewalks of Maasmechelen are studded with shabby pizzerias, delis, coffee bars and sports shops showcasing selections of Italy merch — the legacy of a wave of Italian immigration that started in the late 1940s.Recently however the Flemish town was also the site of another, more sinister Italian import. On an early spring morning earlier this year, Belgian police carrying an international arrest warrant swooped in on a gated villa.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Virginia’s state House will soon have its first Black speaker in its more than 400-year history after the chamber’s incoming Democratic majority on Saturday chose Del. Don Scott to serve in the post. Scott was unanimously elected speaker-designee by the House Democratic Caucus, the group said in a news release. The full House of Delegates will vote to officially confirm him on the first day of the 2024 legislative session.“Virginia voters sent a resounding message on Tuesday that they wanted a Commonwealth that moved forward and that is exactly what I intend to do as your next Speaker,” Scott said in a statement.Democrats not only flipped control of the House of Delegates in Tuesday’s legislative elections but also held their majority in the state Senate, dashing Gov. Glenn Youngkin and fellow Republicans’ hopes of securing a GOP trifecta.The outcome means at least two more years of divided government.

Canadians filled cenotaph and memorial sites across the country to mark Remembrance Day and pay tribute to soldiers who served Canada, both in active combat and peace-keeping or crisis management roles. Here’s a sample of what dignitaries and everyday Canadians alike are saying on the occasion:“Remembrance Day is an opportunity to recognize members of the Canadian Armed Forces who have courageously answered the call of duty. When it was needed most, they left behind their families and homes. Many returned with severe trauma – or didn’t return at all. Their sacrifice is a debt that we can never repay. As we reflect on this debt, we are reminded that this day is not just about the past; it is about our present and our future. From the battlefields of the First and Second World Wars, to Korea and Afghanistan, and in peacekeeping operations, to the training grounds for Ukrainian soldiers, and here at home, responding to a global pandemic and to climate-related disasters, Canadian ...Biden says America’s veterans are ‘the steel spine of this nation’ as he pays tribute at Arlington

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden said America’s veterans are “the steel spine of this nation” as he marked Veterans Day during a visit to Arlington National Cemetery.In remarks at the Memorial Amphitheater, the commander in chief recounted famous battles fought by U.S. troops and said those deployments of soldiers are “linked in a chain of honor that stretches back to our founding days. Each one bound by a sacred oath to support and defend. Not a place, not a person, not a president, but an idea, to defend an idea unlike any other in human history. That idea is the United States of America.”Nov. 11, once known as Armistice Day, is the anniversary of the armistice that ended World War I in 1918. Biden said that was “unlike any war the world had ever seen before.”The ceremony was personal for Biden and first lady Jill Biden.Biden’s son Beau enlisted in 2003 in the Delaware Army National Guard and deployed to Iraq in 2008 for a year as a member of the 261st Theater Tactical ...Latest news
