Thangboi Singto named Kerala Blasters’ Assistant Coach Ishfaq Ahmed joins the new franchise after a largely successful three year stint with Kerala Blasters during which the team reached the ISL final twice, with the winger starting on both occasions. The 34-year-old was drafted into Kerala Blasters during the inaugural season of the IMG-Reliance owned league in 2014. Since the second season onwards, the former India U-23 player was also handed coaching duties, making him the first and only Indian player-manager in the ISL so far....

Roja Devi had given the former champions a first half lead in the 13th minute which was cancelled by Sanju’s 71st minute strike. The score-line remained the same after playing two halves of additional time before the result had to be decided via a penalty shoot-out that ended after each team took eight penalties. The same two teams were in the final of the IWL’s inaugural edition last year, held at the Ambedkar Stadium in New Delhi, where ESU had emerged on top with a 3-0 win courtesy of a brace from Kamala Devi beside’s Prameshwori Devi’s goal....

Quite frankly, there’s just not a demand for betting on IndyCar races. If there were more requests, the books would listen and oblige with numbers. This was actually scheduled to be the second race of the 2015, but the March 8 race set for Brasilia was canceled five weeks prior. It was an embarrassing episode for the series. The good news for the series and ABC is that with a 3 p....

The Labor Department’s report, released Tuesday, also showed that inflation increased 1.2 percent from February to March, a sharper uptick than the 0.8 percent increase from January to February. March’s report is the first to reflect the full impact of the Russia-Ukraine war on prices for gasoline, food and other necessities in the U.S., the Associated Press reported. Supply chain problems and high consumer demand were already contributing to price hikes....

Why Your Child Might Need Ear Tubes Ear infections can occur when the Eustachian tube (also called an auditory tube) becomes swollen and no longer ventilates the middle ear, leading to fluid and sometimes infection in the middle ear. Children are more likely to experience chronic ear infections because their Eustachian tubes are at a more horizontal angle, shorter and narrower than that of adults. A myringotomy is a small incision in the tympanic membrane (eardrum)....

Ingrezza is a vesicular monoamine transporter type 2 (VMAT2) inhibitor. It works by altering neurotransmitters, chemicals that transmit signals in the brain. VMAT2 molecules help transport and recycle neurotransmitters in the brain. Inhibiting them will cause depletion of brain chemicals, such as dopamine, which are critical for motor control. VMAT2 inhibitors are used to treat other medical conditions as well, such as Huntington’s disease. This medication may reduce the symptoms of TD, but it is not a cure....

A small trial of 30 people will see participants inhale either the Oxford Vaccine, which is currently being developed by AstraZeneca and in the Phase III of testing, or the saRNA vaccine by Imperial College London, U.K. It is thought that by targeting the airways directly, which is one of the main entry points for the virus, the vaccine could produce a stronger immune response. If this is the case, scientists could look at inhalation as an alternative method for vaccine delivery....

Second-half goals from Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Aleix Vidal secured all three points at the Santiago Bernabeu to extend Barca’s lead at the summit of La Liga to nine over Atletico Madrid after their 1-0 defeat to Espanyol on Friday.

Iniesta, 33, is out of contract in mid-2018 and his future is undecided, having made just 13 La Liga starts this season. But the midfield maestro said his wish was still to retire at Barca, a club he joined as a 12-year-old. Barca beat Man City to sign teenage GK “I’ve said it a few times in the last month. I wouldn’t say I’m tired of repeating it but I like thinking that at this stage of my career, I’ll decide on my future,” Iniesta said....

Barca confirmed after the first leg of the quarter-final tie that the midfielder had suffered the problem to his left calf and will undergo medical tests on Friday. Simeone praises Atletico precision Iniesta, 32, had been replaced by Andre Gomes at half-time, the latest blow in a season that has been interrupted by two knee injuries. The match itself saw Luis Enrique’s holders win 1-0, ending their curse at the Anoeta with a first win in nine attempts courtesy of Neymar’s first-half penalty, delighting Sergio Busquets....

The 25-year-old suffered an injury during the Teranga Lions 2-0 win over Cape Verde in Praia and has missed the Reds 0-0 draw against Manchester United and the 7-0 thrashing of Maribor. But the west African giants’ boss has dispelled rumours the talismanic midfielder will miss the doubleheader against Stuart Baxter’s side and says he is expected to be fit for both games. “In my mind, there’s no doubt he will be with us for the doubleheader against South Africa and that he will be 100% fit,” Aliou Cisse was quoted by the BBC....

His 2015 pre-injury campaign remains incredible — at 22 years old he amassed 1,047 receiving yards in just 13 games. That production came with Tyrod Taylor and EJ Manuel throwing him passes. Two years later, Watkins felt mentally lost and unhappy with the Bills. He later said he would drink often during the season. Setbacks to surgery on his fractured left foot demoralized him. Escaping Buffalo via trade to the Rams before the 2017 campaign helped him refocus and find a steady playmaking role he might not have captured moping in upstate New York....

Ozil suffers back injury with Germany Smalling joins Phil Jones in having returned to Old Trafford after his team-mate picked up an injury that ruled him out of Wednesday’s clash with Germany. Fellow defender Gary Cahill will also miss the match through suspension, meaning Middlesbrough’s Ben Gibson earns his first call-up to the national side. Gibson has previously made 10 appearances for the England Under-21s, most of which came under current Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate....

Theo Walcott replaced the midfielder, who had opened the scoring from the penalty spot, after appearing to pick up a knock following a late challenge from Thiago Alcantara. It is a blow for Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp. Lallana is now in a race against time to be fit for the Premier League clash with his former club Southampton on Saturday. The 28-year-old had sent Jamie Vardy through on goal against Spain before the Leicester City striker was fouled in the area, with Lallana stepping up confidently to dispatch the ensuing penalty past Pepe Reina....

Adrian Cruz, who was driving in his white sedan with his wife and son in tow in Los Angeles on November 9, was hit by a pursuit suspect who allegedly stole a truck. Cruz was on his way back from work and was sitting at a Hacienda Heights stoplight when the suspect drove down Gale Avenue and South Hacienda Boulevard in a stolen truck, before crashing into him. A police car then rammed the suspect’s vehicle further into Cruz’s car....

After a barren first half, the Red Devils stepped up their game in the last 45 minutes to secure maximum points thanks to Anthony Martial 81st minute strike. The game at Old Trafford was Aurier’s third start for Tottenham in the English topflight this term – that he did in style combining well with Christian Eriksen and Dele Alli in the visitors’ midfield. In the 22nd minute, the Ivorian got himself into a good position deep down the right flank and crossed quickly, but Chris Smalling was there to knock the ball behind for a corner....
