Will Kylian Mbappe play in Real Madrid vs Dortmund in FIFA Club World Cup?
It is too soon to say whether Kylian Mbappe will start in Real Madrid's Club World Cup quarterfinal match against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, coach Xabi Alonso said, as the French forward continues his recovery from gastroenteritis. Mbappe made his tournament debut on Tuesday as Real Madrid edged Juventus 1-0 to reach the quarterfinals after missing all of the group stage. 'He's getting better. He's been improving over the last three days,' Alonso told reporters at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Friday. 'Tomorrow morning we will be deciding if he will be part of the initial 11.' Mbappe came off the bench as a substitute in the second half of the Spanish side's 1-0 win over Juventus in Miami on Tuesday, earning wild applause in a scene that underscored his global appeal at the U.S.-hosted tournament. Mbappe was briefly hospitalised early in the tournament, isolated from his teammates as he recovered. Alonso's team has leaned on Gonzalo Garcia to deputise in his absence, as the 21-year-old academy graduate has recorded three goals - including Tuesday's winner - and an assist in a breakout performance at the competition. 'I think (Garcia and Mbappe) could complement each other and if it's something that is required, it's not something I'm going to turn a blind eye to,' said Alonso. Madrid faces a Dortmund team in solid form on Saturday, after the German side held off a stirring second-half fightback from Monterrey 2-1 this week to book its spot in the final eight. 'Dortmund is a very good team. As soon as (coach Niko Kovac) was at the helm, they were growing and developing and on the rise,' said Alonso. 'We are facing a tough opponent... It's gonna be tight tomorrow.'

Chelsea advances to Club World Cup semifinals with 2-1 win over Palmeiras
PHILADELPHIA: Chelsea scored the go-ahead goal on Malo Gusto's 83rd-minute shot that went in after a pair of deflections, beating Palmeiras 2-1 on Friday night for a spot in the Club World Cup semifinals. Cole Palmer put Chelsea ahead in the 16th minute but Estêvão, an 18-year-old who will transfer to Chelsea this summer, tied the score against his future club with an angled shot in the 53rd. Gusto's shot following a short corner kick appeared to deflect off defender Agustin Giay and goalkeeper Weverton and sent the Chelsea portion of 65,782 fans into a frenzy. FIFA credited Weverton with an own goal. Chelsea won't travel far for its next match, facing Fluminense on Tuesday at East Rutherford, New Jersey. Hércules came off the bench and scored in the 70th minute to lift Fluminense past Al Hilal 2-1 in Friday's earlier quarterfinal. With Chelsea's win, three of the four semifinal teams will be from Europe, with one from Brazil.

'Acting Captain' Rishabh Pant's Massive Call Forces Umpire To Reverse Decision In India vs Eng. Shubman Gill Does This
Rishabh Pant, Indian cricket team vice-captain, could not contribute much with the bat in the first innings of the India vs England 2nd Test. He was, however, impactful behind the stumps and also as the acting captain when designated skipper Shubman Gill was not on the field. Pant led for a brief amount of time on Day 2 and then held the responsibility on Day 3 too for a brief period on Day 3 too. In fact, he was crucial in helping Mohammed Siraj gets his fourth wicket. The India pacer ultimately finished with six wickets. That time too Gill was off the field and on the fifth ball of the the 88th over, Siraj his Brydon Carse on the pads. Siraj thought it was an LBW and made a huge appeal but the umpire said no. Pant was convinced that the ball had hit the pad first. He signaled for the DRS. By that time Gill was back on the field. Replays and DRS showed the ball would have hit the leg stump. Umpire Saikat reverse his decision to out as Siraj was ecstatic. Gill gave big hug to Siraj. Spot On DRS from Rishabh Pant 🫡🔥 — INDIA (@KKRWeRule) July 4, 2025 "It was Rishabh Pant who actually took the review. Shubman Gill came charging in and gave Siraj a warm hug for handling the DRS call in his absence. That was a great review," said former England captain Nasser Hussain in commentary. ABSOLUTE MASTERCLASS FROM RISHABH PANT BEHIND THE STUMPS! - Brilliant DRS call by Pant Siraj gets his 4th wicket — turning the heat on England The energy, awareness & game sense from Pant = India roaring back in style! #RishabhPant #MohammedSiraj — Akaran.A (@Akaran_1) July 4, 2025 Jamie Smith and Harry Brook produced a stunning England fightback via their huge 303-run stand for the sixth wicket. But India continued to hold a strong position as their lead went past 200 at stumps on day three of the second Test of the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy at Edgbaston here on Friday. Mohammed Siraj, who began the day by dismissing Joe Root and Ben Stokes off successive deliveries, stood up to be the star of India's bowling line-up by picking an incredible 6-70 from 19.3 overs. Siraj, who picked his fourth five-wicket haul in Tests (the first time of it coming in England) and Akash Deep, who ended with 4-88, ensured India grabbed a significant 180-run lead. England, after being reduced to 84/5 in the second over of the morning session, were rescued by a dazzling Brook hit 158 off 234 balls, laced with 17 fours and a six. Smith, on the other hand, was at his magnificent best. But he ran out of partners to be stranded at 184 not out - the highest Test score by any England wicketkeeper in Tests, laced with 21 fours and a six.
