MotoGP Czech GP: How to watch
It saw the factory Ducati duo of Marc Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia hampered with tyre pressure problems, though the Spaniard ultimately won the contest.
Marc continues to lead the standings with 356 points, while younger brother Alex Marquez sits in second with a tally of 261. Bagnaia completes the top three with 200 points.
Bagnaia starts the grand prix from pole and will be hoping to not have the electronic woes that plagued his challenge in the sprint race.
However, Marc starts alongside in second and his pace in the sprint was undeniable. Like Bagnaia, he also had tyre pressure problems but for different reasons, so the Ducati duo will be hoping to eradicate any such worries in today's main race.
It's worth keeping an eye on the KTMs too, as both Pedro Acosta and Enea Bastianini showed impressive speed on their way to second and third place in the sprint race.

La Liga Set for VAR Revolution After Real Madrid Controversy
New system allows coaches to challenge referee decisions twice per match starting 2025/26 La Liga Set for VAR Revolution After Real Madrid Controversy Major changes are coming to La Liga next season as the Spanish Referees Committee prepares to implement revolutionary VAR system aimed at increasing transparency and reducing controversy. Coach Challenges Now Allowed According to COPE Radio, the new system'll grant each manager 2 VAR challenge opportunities per match. If the challenge leads to overturning wrong decision, the coach'll retain the right to make another appeal. But if the referee's call's upheld, no additional challenges will be granted. This move comes after turbulent season that saw Real Madrid's official media attack referees weekly prompting the referees union to file lawsuits against the club. FIFA and IFAB Greenlight FIFA referee chief Pierluigi Collina confirmed the system's under close monitoring. Approved by IFAB last March , it could soon become standard in top leagues worldwide.

Messi and his wife had a MUCH better time on infamous Coldplay 'kiss cam'
These days, getting caught on the Coldplay concert kiss cam isn't necessarily the best thing (that is, if you're allegedly hiding something). But when you're Lionel Messi, the world's best soccer player, and you're with your wife, it's not bad! In fact, you might get sung to by the band's Chris Martin! That's what happened on Sunday, with Messi and wife Antonela appearing on the kiss cam and getting these words from Martin: "Well Leo, my beautiful brother, you and your wife are looking so fine. Thanks for coming today, to see our band play. The number one sports person of all time!" It was all smiles and waves from Messi and Antonela. Everyone loved it. Suffice it to say, they had a MUCH better time than others have had on the Coldplay kiss cam. This comes days after Martin's ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow appeared in a hilarious video for Astronomer that winked at the other viral moment that made headlines. This article originally appeared on For The Win: Messi and wife are on Coldplay kiss cam that caught Astronomer couple

No Excuses As Spain-Imbued Arsenal Invests In Fourth Time Lucky
Arsenal's new signing Viktor Gyökeres on a big screen as the Gunners play in Singapore on their ... More preseason tour. Arsenal is spending the bucks on new signings this offseason in an attempt to make the final leap, namely winning the Premier League, where it has finished second on three consecutive occasions, or the Champions League (semifinalists last time out) by the close of the 2025/26 campaign. Despite this, there may be a temptation to control the narrative, to take the pressure off. It's correct that Liverpool is the biggest mover and shaker among the English top-flight forces this summer, capitalizing on its league-winning status and enviable financial resources to level up. Meanwhile, Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta said his squad was lacking numbers only a week ago. Since then, Arsenal has added forward Viktor Gyökeres, an anticipated game-changer for an initial €63 million ($71 million). The foundations are already there—a Spanish coach with a defined method of playing, smoothened by extracting the cream of Real Sociedad's midfield: Mikel Merino and now Martín Zubimendi. The Gunners have also introduced ex-La Liga pair Kepa Arrizabalaga (goalkeeper) and Cristhian Mosquera (central defender) to the setup. First, what's the argument for Gyökeres proving the difference in helping Arsenal win the most coveted trophies? The Sweden international averaged around a goal every game across the Spanish border in Portugal for Sporting. Given how Arsenal's lineup, sharing the scoring load, has frequently coped without an orthodox finisher, he arguably doesn't need to be an all-round gem—just someone to apply the final touch. Easier said than done, of course. Arsenal's players are getting match sharpness in Singapore, where they won 3-2 against Newcastle on ... More Sunday. Aged 27, Gyökeres isn't exactly a late bloomer. Nevertheless, before 2021 and his permanent move to Coventry in England's Championship, the Scandinavian was by no means a prolific frontman. 'His biggest talent is he's so determined, focused, and stubborn,' Dalibor Savic, his former youth coach at Brommapojkarna, recently said. 'He keeps working for it, trying to be a better player every week and every day.' He will need that drive in the Premier League, a huge step up from the Primeira Liga, whose clubs currently rank seventh in UEFA's coefficient. Arsenal Ambitions Born In Spain From a strategic outlook, Arsenal is well-placed to deliver this term. Appointed at the end of March, sporting director Andrea Berta has now got his feet under the table. Berta arrived at the Emirates Stadium with a strong reputation, having contributed to a raft of influential transfers to Atlético Madrid over 12 seasons in the Spanish capital. Of course, not every signing worked a treat, but Atleti has collected two league titles since 2013. As much as narrowly missing out on glory can knock a team in the moment, its competitive experience should once again serve Arsenal well in the long term. The squad (preparing for a preseason test against rival Tottenham in Hong Kong) has been able to reboot mentally. And the arrivals—Gyökeres, Zubimendi, Kepa, Mosquera, Noni Madueke, and Christian Nørgaard—see the project with fresh eyes. At the back, the Gunners still have William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães, fronting the best defense (only conceding 34 goals) last season. Premier League soccer is ruthlessly competitive and, for that, it's maybe too simplistic to call just missing out on the title a failure. However, should Basque tactician Arteta's bid fall short again, there can be no excuses. The building blocks are in place to finish the race in first, and more recruits could be coming before the September 1 market deadline. Is Arsenal's moment now?
