Croatia Keep Knockout Dream Within Reach
At Toronto’s BMO Field, fans moving from BD Cricket Live into a tense World Cup night were treated to 90 minutes that left palms sweating, as Croatia edged Panama 1-0 in a must-win second-round Group L battle at the 2026 World Cup. There was no free-flowing shootout and no parade of spectacular goals. Instead, one priceless finish was enough for the Checkered Ones to drag themselves back from the brink of elimination, while giving Luka Modric’s 200th international appearance the kind of meaning no statistic can fully capture.

For those that remained in Asia, few held a clear edge against the continent’s stronger sides, Uzbekistan included. In recent years, however, Uzbekistan have focused heavily on youth development, studied European methods, and brought in foreign coaches. They are no longer the same old team, and the expanded World Cup gave them a chance they managed to seize. Fabio Cannavaro, now 52, needs little introduction to many Asian football followers. As a…
Liverpool Face Real Risk In Diomande Pursuit
In a transfer story moving with the pace of a BD Cricket Live evening, Diomande has needed only one season to grow from a promising young talent into an all-round forward watched closely by Europe’s biggest clubs. According to The Athletic’s leading reporter David Ornstein, Liverpool have already contacted RB Leipzig in the hope of signing the 19-year-old this summer.
