Former France International Thiery Henry has agreed to join the Belgian National Team as an Assistant Coach to Roberto Martinez.  The former Barcelona star who was the head coach of arsenal U18 side would team up with Roberto to propel the FIFA 2nd best National team to a fresh start after their dismal performance in the last European cup tournament where they where beaten 3-1 by Wales in the quarter finals. The two must be having mutual respect for each other as Thiery Henry is expected to have positive impact on the players with his cult figure. Henry won the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000, and Martinez, who was appointed earlier this month, feels that his experience can help improve the mentality of the current generation of Belgian players. He's someone that has been in the situation of having to develop a mentality as a team to chase the dream of winning something special," the Spaniard said. He did that with his country back in '96 leading up

Leicester City FC's 2014/16 EPL season result as league leaders ensure's that they make their first appearance in the European Champion's League but whether or not they are freshers would mean that they are seeded against more experienced club sides. Seeded in what could be regarded as the weakest group on the table, they could still face an uphill task against former European Champion Fc Porto and Belgian League giants Club Brugge. Porto won't be easy to beat, especially at the 50,000-capacity Estadio do Dragao. They aren't the same side that won the Champions League under Jose Mourinho in 2004, but still boast veteran keeper Iker Casillas, no-nonsense Brazilian defender Alex Telles, talented Spanish midfielder Oliver Torres and Riyad Mahrez's international teammate Yacine Brahimi a pacy poacher who Leicester have scouted in the past. Porto have a lot of European know-how and are just as devastating on the counterattack as the Foxes, who wil

Seemingly uninterested, struggling, flat footed, confused............ All these are words that could be used to describe the defending champion Serena Williams as she gets ousted by a lucky Elina Svitolina of Ukraine in the women's single round of 16 at 6-4, 6-3 in a swift 72 minutes game. “Obviously I’m disappointed,” said Williams, who is also out of the doubles draw after she and her sister, Venus, lost in the first round. “The better player won. It was a great opportunity that didn’t work out the way I wanted it to. At least I was able to make Rio, which was one of my goals. It was awesome, but it’s over now.”

A Saudi judo competitor forfeited her first round match at the Olympic Games to avoid going up against a rival from Israel, it has been claimed. Joud Fahmy was supposed to have taken on Christianne Legentil from Mauritius for the right to take on Israel's Gili Cohen in the next round. But before the clash, Saudi officials tweeted that she had injured her arm and leg during training and that medics had told her to pull out. Saudi Arabia and Israel have no official relations and the kingdom prohibits its citizens from travelling to Israel. It also does not grant visas to Israelis. In the end, five-time Israeli champion Cohen, 25, was beaten by Christianne Legentil. Fahmy was one of four women Saudi Arabia sent to the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, doubling its female participation after two women.
