- May 27, 2017
Both Lukasz Fabianski (Swansea) and Wojciech Szczesny (on loan at AS Roma) were previously part of the Gunners' Cup success before moving on, and Wenger may be following a similar route with Ospina. Chelsea will likely adopt the same back-three that's served them so well all season. Premier League champions Chelsea will be looking to complete a league-cup double when they take on city rivals Arsenal in the FA Cup final on Saturday. (more...)

Pep To Offer Yaya New Contract
- May 27, 2017
City's lack of a killer edge, which Guardiola constantly bemoans, could have been punished when Albrighton almost equalised in the second half from a Jamie Vardy pass. At first, it looked as if Yaya Toure, celebrating his 34th birthday, would take the kick, but he passed on the responsibility to Jesus, who sent goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel the wrong way. (more...)

It's a 'threematch' for the NBA Finals
- May 27, 2017
If he does land the 32-year-old guard, then much of San Antonio's supporting cast from last season will be gone next year. Yet it should be noted that Paul, in a sign-and-trade scenario, could not get the five-year, $205 million deal; such a swap would merely allow San Antonio to clear cap space by sending assets back to the Clippers in exchange for Paul.

- May 27, 2017

Horschel wins in playoff
- May 27, 2017
I gave myself the opportunity to hole a lot of putts out there today. "But I came here and, now, I am. Happy to be here and happy to compete, and it's nice to walk away with a trophy". "You go for the win". It was a unique finish for the 20-year-old who made a disastrous double-bogey on 15, to then make two vital birdies on 16 and 18 to continue her reign at the top of the world rankings by the smallest of margins.

NBA Finals: Buckle up for Cavs-Warriors 3.0
- May 27, 2017
Golden State still deserves to be the favorite, but the brilliance of LeBron James coupled with Cleveland's improved defensive focus can't be dismissed. So I didn't ever believe I could be Mike. In the second half, they shot 27 of 38 (71.1 percent) from the field.So what is it that I love about the nearly one-sided basketball games that we are seeing? And while James now leads in the playoff point totals, he still lags Jordan's regular-season point total. (more...)
