Abrahamsen wins Tour de France stage as Pogacar survives scare
Norway's Jonas Abrahamsen won stage 11 of the Tour de France at Toulouse yesterday while defending champion Tadej Pogacar crashed 4km from the line. Pogacar fell after hitting the back wheel of another rider but his rivals Jonas Vingegaard and Remco Evenepoel sportingly waited for the Slovenian to catch up after he got back on his bike. Ireland's Ben Healy retained the leader's jersey. The thrilling stage over 156km from Toulouse and back was unexpectedly won by Abrahamsen as a long range breakaway foiled the ambitions of the sprinters. Abrahamsen contested a two-way cat-and-mouse war of nerves down the home straight with Swiss Mauro Schmid as the cunning Mathieu van der Poel crept up on them and finished third at 7sec. Healy retained the overall lead on his first day in the fabled yellow jersey, while Pogacar remains second and Evenepoel third. Following Tuesday's rest day, yesterday's run was billed as a likely sprint finish with 70 points at stake in the sprint points standings at Toulouse. Stage 11 did however feature five small climbs along a 156.8km route making sure it was constantly fast and nerve-wracking. Pogacar fell after hitting the back wheel of another rider but his rivals two-time winner Vingegaard and Evenepoel sportingly waited for the Slovenian. The UAE rider Pogacar struggled to put his chain on after sliding across several metres of tarmac and had looked as if he would lose 30 to 40 seconds. Healy will lead the peloton into the Pyrenees on Thursday where the first real mountains will test his and everyone's legs on the legendary beyond category Hautacam climb.

Modric Joins AC Milan
TDT | Manama 'A New Chapter' Begins as Legend Eyes Rossoneri Revival Luka Modric is officially an AC Milan player,and he's not coming to take it easy. The 39-year-old Croatian maestro has signed a one-year deal (with an option for another) after leaving Real Madrid, and he's made it clea that his goal is to help Milan climb back to the top of Italian football. Fresh off a legendary 13-year stint at the Bernabéu, where he won 28 trophies, including five Champions Leagues, Modric says he's excited for a 'new chapter' and ready to give everything at San Siro. "I'm very happy to be here," he told fans. "We hope to make you proud and celebrate many victories together.' Milan are in need of inspiration after a rough 2024-25 season. They finished 8th in Serie A, burned through two coaches, and missed out on European competition for just the fourth time this century. But with Modric bringing both class and leadership to a squad in transition, and Massimiliano Allegri back at the helm, hope is already starting to build.
