Yahoo31-05-2025
In the absence of an official announcement, Olé confirmed that Lionel Scaloni has a surprise in store for the defense.
Let's remember that there are many absences to cover and, in light of this, the Argentina coach decided to call up Mariano Troilo.
"Nano", as his friends call him, has played 51 games in Belgrano's top division, being one of the team's top performers.

31 Problem-Solving Kitchen Products

A Le Creuset magnetic trivet if you're always dangerously juggling hot plates. This GENIUS invention allows you to simply hover a hot pot over the trivet and — BAM! — the trivet will stick to the bottom, and you can place the pot on any nearby, stable surface. Gone are the days of frantically shouting, "Can someone help me in here?!" when your hands are full. A wineglass clip for securing your delicate glassware in the dishwasher so you don't have to wash it by hand anymore. Score! A foil pan protector because your one job is to bring a dish to the family potluck, but your flimsy foil pans are doing their darnedest to leak everywhere. Enter the Fancy Panz. Simply plop your foil pan inside it (there's a riser so you can use it for both shallow and deep foil pans), and you'll have peace of mind knowing your pasta salad isn't sloshing around in the backseat, leaking dressing all over your car. You can even stack 'em — that's how sturdy they are. A 2-in-1 kitchen scale and measuring cup to reduce the number of dirty dishes you create and ensure your measurements are accurate. Some lemon wedge wraps so you can squeeze your citrus with reckless abandon and never worry that you'll find a seed in your drink or dish. A bagel knife that'll ensure a quick and even slice. Raise your hand if every time you cut a bagel, you have one side that's 1-inch thick while the other side is barely 1/2-inch thick. Great! Now take that hand and add this to your cart. And on the topic of bagels, a Bagel Bro — it's a sort of bagel stand — to help all you impatient folks out there from burning your fingers on a hot bagel. It comes with handy tongs to fish out your bagel halves (much safer than risking electrocution with metal utensils), which you'll then plop on the Bagel Bro so you can promptly cream cheese them up. Or an English muffin splitter for slicing your favorite breakfast carb in half without losing those precious nooks and crannies. (That's where the butter and jam pools when they melt. 🤤) A set of modular sheet pan dividers because no, you don't need to suffer through veggies that are burned to a crisp because you had to leave the pan in the oven to make sure the salmon was fully cooked. With this handy system, you can just remove individual trays when the ingredients are fully cooked. A toastie press to make ooey-gooey quesadillas, grilled cheese, paninis, or toast pita pockets and leftover pizza without dirtying a single pan or heating up the kitchen with your oven. Might I suggest a dessert toastie? Strawberries and Nutella? Peanut butter and bananas? A water bottle organizer so filling your Stanley and heading out the door each day is a fuss-free affair. It's got slots for up to four bottles as well as a built-in tray for water-sippin' accessories like straws, straw toppers, electrolyte packets, etc. And there are five hooks you can use for holding the lids (no more rooting around in your junk drawer!) but you can also use them to hold more bottles (reviewers say they're that strong), keys, oven mitts, and more. And a 3D-printed straw holder that'll house your vast collection of water bottle straws (funny how straws just seem to magically appear in your drawers). Mount it inside your cabinet door and free up drawer space for more important things, like fast-food condiment packets. A dirty dishwasher indicator if you find yourself thinking, "What's it gonna be today?" when you open your dishwasher. If your household doesn't consistently flip the clean/dirty dishwasher magnets, try this instead! It sits inside your dishwasher, so you know if dishes are clean or dirty depending on whether the container has water in it. An onion holder for a more secure grip and more evenly sized slices of onions, tomatoes, lemons, eggs, potatoes, and fruits. You can even use it as a meat tenderizer! A pack of carborundum sponges because these are the heavy hitters you'll want for stains and gunk that no other sponge is strong enough to handle. A pack of seasoning bombs to simplify dinner on busy nights. One seasoning bomb + 6 pounds of meat + water + onions = an explosion of flavor and a delicious meal that can feed up to 12 people. And all you had to do was push a button! A heated ice cream scoop so you don't have to fight the ice cream tub for a little post-dinner sweet treat, or worse: wait 15 minutes for it to thaw. Reusable lids for Nespresso Vertuo pods that reviewers say are better than the foil alternatives and won't split during brewing or leak coffee grounds everywhere. And, of course, they're gonna save you a heck of a lot of money in the long run now that you're not buying a $14+ box of pods every week. A pretty ~dope~ Doap bar if plain old soap and water isn't strong enough to unstick the sticky dough that's stuck to your hands. Instead of dirtying (and ruining) a perfectly good sponge, clean your hands with a Doap bar. The textured knobs will remove stubborn dough like magic! A dish drying rack for, well, drying like, in a really chic way. The built-in swivel spout rotates 360 degrees to accommodate your kitchen layout. Sometimes you don't want to run the dishwasher just for a small load, and fortunately, this rack isn't an eyesore! A pack of plate clips because trying to scoop ranch dressing off a flat plate and onto your carrot is an exercise in futility. Stop pushing the ranch across the plate instead of onto your veg! With these cups conveniently clipped to your plate, you can enjoy a proper dunk of your carrots into ranch, your fries into ketchup, and your chips into salsa. They're also handy if you or your kid hates when the sauce touches their food. A grippy mat to help you open bottled drinks, unlock medicine bottles, mix ingredients in a bowl, twist open heavy jars, use a cutting board, open mail, swipe a tablet, and wipe a plate one-handed. This is especially great for people with a weak or injured hand. Relatedly, a ring pull can opener so you can open that can of beans or your kitty's salmon dinner with minimal effort, without ruining your mani trying to jam your nail under the ring, and without snapping off the tab. A magnetic fridge shelf with a lid that's strong enough to hold 10 pounds of potatoes and all your condiments. This space-creating product is great for people with limited storage — and you can use it in other rooms of the house, like the laundry room (a station for detergent, dryer sheets, and dryer balls). An airtight Deli ProKeeper if the sensory experience of pulling a piece of slimy ham from a damp deli meat package is *shudders* enough to make you no longer hungry for lunch. This container is designed to extend the life of your deli meats and cheeses and has a grooved bottom, meaning your turkey isn't sitting in its juices. A trio of herb keepers for anyone who's ever pulled out the package of parsley they just bought, only to realize — what the heck?! — it's already browning. These nifty boxes are designed to prolong the life of your herbs so you can enjoy your spaghetti with a sprinkle of basil and your lemonade with fresh mint. Also worth noting: You can store many types of herbs in each container and keep them separated with the removable dividers, and the water level is visible, so you know if your herbs are drying out. A Yamazaki raised cutting board because there's a strong magnet in the bottom that allows it to be mounted right on the fridge or any other magnetic surface in your home. The antislip cushions on the feet will keep it securely locked on your countertop so you can slice and dice with confidence. It's dishwasher safe but also nice enough to look at that you could just use it as a serving board after slicing some veggies for your charcuterie board. A space-saving collapsible strainer to drain water from your produce and then fold up flat when you don't need it. Tell me why my colander takes up all the cabinet space of a large pot! A box of compostable sandwich bags so you can pat yourself on the back for bringing lunch to the office, and then also pat yourself on the back again for being kinder to the planet. Reviewers rave about the durability of the bags, saying they're "tough" and have lasted them almost a year without ripping. A set of stackable glass Bormioli wineglasses that'll take up wayyy less space and feel wayyy more bougie than the plastic wineglasses you own that currently take up an entire row in your cabinet. A pair of silicone stands if you don't wash your emotional support water bottle as much as you should because it's annoying how long it takes for it to dry. These provide a sturdy base so your bottles don't tip over while also allowing air to flow to ensure your bottles fully dry.

Spain or England? Predicting the Euro 2025 Final We Wanted To See

It's the juicy rematch everyone wants to see. These nations met in the 2023 World Cup final where Spain was crowned world champions for the first time. Now England will get a shot at revenge and attempt to secure a consecutive Euro title. Here's what you need to know ahead of Sunday's matchup: "You can never write the English off." Chloe Kelly's words have rang true throughout this tournament as England brushed off elimination multiple times. The defending tournament champions needed extra time – and a favorable call in the box – to beat Italy 2-1 in Tuesday's semifinal. And before that, it took a penalty shootout to edge a more imposing Sweden team. On paper, both Sweden and Italy should have won those respective matches. But the Lionesses have that never-say-die mentality and have found different ways to win. Michelle Agyemang, the 19-year-old Arsenal forward, came off the bench in both the quarterfinal and semifinal matches to score brilliant and decisive goals. But it was Kelly, England's hero from the last European championship, who came on as a late sub and provided a spark that carried her team to those victories. Against Sweden, Kelly had the assist on Lucy Bronze's goal in the 79th minute and then converted her penalty during the shootout. In the Italy match, she was tasked with taking the controversial spot kick in the 119th minute. While she missed her initial attempt, the confident forward followed up and fired her own game-winning rebound into the back of the net. Then England's celebration queen paid homage to both Cristiano Ronaldo's "calma, calma" gesture and Thierry Henry's corner-flag pose in fitting fashion: "It's definitely a movie that keeps you on the edge of your seat," Kelly added. Aitana Bonmatí, who was hospitalized with meningitis days before the Euros began, scored the winning goal in extra time to propel Spain to a 1-0 victory over Germany in the second semifinal. Despite not starting the first couple of games while she recovered and eased back onto the pitch, it almost seemed inevitable that Bonmatí would have a magic moment at some point during this tournament. And it happened at the most important time as a penalty shootout looomed. The two-time Ballon d'Or winner made some dangerous runs earlier in the match, but overall Germany defended her well. Then in the 113th minute, she found herself pinned near the end line at an awkward angle looking at the goal. While it seemed at first as if she was looking to cross the ball to one of her teammates, Bonmatí instead slipped a shot past German goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger at the near post. Berger had been outstanding the entire tournament – she was the hero of Germany's quarterfinal win over France. But the Gotham FC goalkeeper was out of position as she likely guessed Bonmatí was going to cross the ball instead of shoot it. She blamed herself afterward. "I can make as many saves as I want, but that one should have been mine, and that's why I'm incredibly sorry. For the team, not for me, but for those who gave their all," Berger said. Now Spain will play in its first-ever European final. On paper, it may seem like England are more battle-tested, having played France and the Netherlands during the group stage before facing Sweden and Italy in the knockout round. But the Spaniards are coming off consecutive challenging games, including a 2-0 quarterfinal win over tournament host Switzerland last week in which they missed two PKs in regulation. Final prediction: Spain wins, 2-1. This will be an epic fight in the final, no doubt. While Spain has been the steady favorite all along and proven to be the most talented and technical side in this tournament, what we've learned over the last few weeks is you can never count England out. Even if La Roja dominate and maintain possession for most of the game on Sunday – even if they have a lead – the Lionesses are a squad that could pull the rug out at any moment. That's exactly what they did to Sweden and to Italy. At the point in those respective matches when England was mounting its comeback, the opponent had already subbed off some of its most important players, likely thinking the game was in hand. Spain and England know each other well with mostly the same rosters who faced each other in the 2023 World Cup final in Australia. Additionally, many of these players recently clashed when Arsenal defeated Barcelona 1-0 in the Champions League final. So needless to say that Sunday will be a tight, thrilling game and could very well break attendance and viewership records for a Women's European championship game.
