We came together with unwavering resolve to ensure that the people of New Orleans have a safe, supported and are here to fully enjoy the excitement of Super Bowl 59,

A settlement has been reached in the class action lawsuit that was filed by fans in the wake of the chaotic 2024 Copa América final between Argentina and Colombia held at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. Because of crowd trouble prior to kickoff, some fans with tickets were not able to enter the venue, while others left early out of concern for their safety. These fans are expected to form the bulk of those filing claims.

The Pompey supporting pair arrived at St Mary's Stadium in Southampton for the match - the first league meeting between the rivals for 13 years - wearing hi-vis vests and carrying radio equipment to blend in with staff. The men, who live in Portsmouth, admitted fraud by false representation and going on to a playing area of a football match. They were ordered to pay fines and costs totalling just over 1,000 each.

They clearly came with the intention to get into the stadium illegally, bringing high-vis vests with 'steward' on the back, with one even carrying a radio and earpiece. Their actions have seen them face very serious consequences in court today and for two people who were so desperate to see this one game, they will now not be able to go to any for three years.

The operation was earning its ringleaders tens of thousands of euros a match. Porto said one alleged ringleader had convinced dozens of people to hand over personal details, which he used to register them as club members and purchase season tickets in their names. These schemes reached an impressive scale, with dozens of seats controlled by a single individual, the club said in a statement to the Guardian.

The Gaza ceasefire agreement signed on Monday, along with an exchange of captives between Israel and Hamas, did nothing to diminish the resolve of about 10,000 protesters who descended on the small city in Italy's far northeast, a small section of whom were involved in unrest at the end of the march.

Daniel Farke's side suffered a narrow 2-1 loss to Tottenham at Elland Road, with summer signing Mohammed Kudus scoring a long-range winner to seal all three points for Thomas Frank's side. Tottenham took the lead through Mathys Tel in the first half, before Noah Okafor's strike brought Leeds United back on level terms. However, ten minutes after the restart, Kudus announced himself to Spurs fans in style by netting his debut goal for the club from distance, a strike that ultimately decided the game.
