The wild sequence began when Vancouver’s Joaquin Ardaiz took a shot that was stopped by goalkeeper Stefan Frei. The ball rolled to the Whitecaps’ Hwang In-Beom, whose shot was blocked again by a diving Frei. After the play, In-Beom had his legs taken out from underneath him on a sliding tackle by Seattle’s Kim Kee-hee.

1992 World Cup, Australia & New Zealand This was the first time South Africa featured in a World Cup, after being reinstated as a Test playing nation in 1991 (South Africa were banned from international cricket, 1970 onwards due to apartheid). Having started playing One Day Cricket in 1991, no one expected much from the South African team.

In an interview with The Telegraph, Wessels affirmed, “(India’s USP is) a improved pace attack. India’s batting has always been good, but this crop of pacemen give it a different look.” Impressed by India’s batting strength too, he added, “The top-order is now proficient to take on the challenges of conditions in, say, South Africa.

“I am preparing myself to be a little more open-minded than I was last time. You cannot have a set pattern you cannot go into a Test thinking that you are going to leave so many balls. You also have to be in a frame of mind to score runs,” Vijay said during a media interaction after training session. “If they bowl in good areas, then you have to try and counter that and come out stronger as well....
Such propaganda gets broadcast every day along the 151-mile military demarcation line–a 17-inch strip of cement that runs near the 38th parallel, the line that divvied up the Koreas after World War II. I couldn’t understand a word the man was saying, but the message was clear: even as we continue a new war on terrorism, one of the last battlefronts of the old Cold War is still raging....

Traces of toxic metals from the late eighteenth century were detected in an ice core sample taken from the Dasuopu glacier on Shishapangma, a mountain located approximately 6,400 miles from London, U.K. The first person to reach Shishapangma, the world’s 14th highest mountain, did so in 1964....
