L'entraîneur lyonnais Pierre Sage n'a pas éludé les questions sur son avenir, ce mercredi, en conférence de presse à Istanbul. Il sait qu'il jouera gros jeudi soir (18h45) contre Fenerbahçe en Ligue Europa, et il s'en accommode.Après deux très bonnes années en LEC (le Championnat EMEA de « League of Legends »), une progression constante sans bouleverser son effectif et une installation remarquée dans le Top 3 de la ligue, BDS a pourtant décidé de remplacer trois joueurs (sur cinq) de son équipe lors de la dernière intersaison. Yanis « Striker » Kella, coach français du club suisse, revient sur ce changement de cap.L'attaquant ivoirien Wilfried Zaha quitte déjà l'Olympique Lyonnais après quatre mois et demi de prêt infructueux. Alors qu'il était prêté par Galatasaray, il est transféré à la franchise américaine du Charlotte FC.Ryanair’s Michael O’Leary wants European airports to clamp down on pre-flight drinking. But is it really such a problem? There’s only one way to find out …
It is 10.30am on Thursday at Gatwick, and Jenny and her friend Alison, both 63, are drinking champagne. It’s an elegant scene. They are on a stopover between Barbados and Guernsey, and neither are planning to get drunk and kicked off their connecting flight. Alison describes the unique drinking culture at an airport. “We don’t know what day it is, never mind what time,” she says. “There aren’t any windows, so you can’t tell if it is day or night. Everyone is in a different time zone anyway, so nobody is looking at anyone else thinking, ‘They’re starting a bit early.’”
The perfect environment, in other words, to enjoy a morning drink. But now I’m casting around my mind for every other place on Earth where one might have a breakfast beer or glass of wine: cricket matches; bottomless brunches; weddings. In every one of those scenarios, a good number of drinkers would be carousing after half an hour. But the airport is so serene.

La saison 2025 de la Ligue Française de League of Legends reprend ce mercredi, avec trois nouveaux clubs, un format inédit, des recrues prestigieuses et un niveau sur le papier plus homogène que jamais.Arne Slot had two minor complaints: that Lille scored from their only shot on target and Liverpool are not guaranteed to win the Champions League group because of Barcelona’s 95th-minute winner at Benfica, where four minutes of stoppage time were signalled. They were the grumblings of a perfectionist.
Perfectionism is serving Liverpool well, however. Top spot may not be secured just yet but Slot’s side booked a place in the last 16 with a seventh successive victory. It equalled the club’s best sequence in the Champions League era.

The first arrest of a sitting president, over his declaration of martial law, shows the strength of the nation’s safeguards – but also that more must be done
South Korean presidencies have often ended badly. Office holders have been assassinated, ousted and impeached. Former leaders have faced corruption investigations and sometimes lengthy prison terms.
Yoon Suk Yeol has nonetheless set a precedent as the first president to be arrested in office. Accused of insurrection over his short-lived attempt to impose martial law, the former prosecutor has swapped his suits for the standard khaki uniform of a detainee. In a piquant detail, the man who led his country’s first impeachment of a president, Park Geun‑hye, has also been impeached himself. His powers are currently suspended.

Osama Najim was arrested amid claims he used detained migrants in ‘a form of slavery’, but then freed after after a mistake by prosecutors
A Libyan general wanted for alleged war crimes and violence against inmates at a prison near Tripoli has been arrested in the northern Italian city of Turin – and then released after an apparent mistake by prosecutors.
Osama Najim, also known as Almasri, was detained on Sunday on an international arrest warrant after a tipoff from Interpol, a source at the prosecutors office for the Piedmont region confirmed.

Despite scandal after scandal, Koreans have shown their solidarity with one another, and the resilience of their institutions
Compared with other advanced industrialised countries, South Korea is still a young democracy, having only transitioned from authoritarian to democratic rule in 1987. However, the political freedoms and beliefs Koreans have come to take for granted were suddenly shattered on 3 December, when President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law, citing anti-state activities and collaboration with North Korea by some political actors as his reason for doing so.
His actions utterly shocked the country, and MPs promptly gathered at the national assembly in a clear act of defiance of the ban on political activities that accompanied the imposition of martial law. All 190 members of parliament who were present that night (out of a total of 300) had made it through the cordons of special forces around the parliament building and voted to nullify the law within hours of its imposition. President Yoon quickly repealed the law. Tens of thousands of ordinary citizens filled the streets around the national assembly calling for presidential impeachment. It took two attempts before enough MPs would vote to impeach the president. Watching Yoon appear at his impeachment hearing today, these may appear to be very dark days for democracy. But in reality, these events should give Koreans hope.

Manuel Oliver’s son was murdered at school in 2018 and he’s been telling his devastating story at theatres across the US
