Dani Olmo: The return of a champion? As reported by SPORT, Olmo was one of the best performers for Barcelona in the win over Deportivo Alaves, and his performance has been backed by numbers as well. Playing the full 90 minutes, the Spaniard registered a decisive brace, scoring his first league goals since September. His second goal, coming deep into stoppage time, sealed the victory after Lamine Yamal's earlier equaliser.
Bruno Guimaraes has been a key player for Newcastle in the competition thus far. He has made the joint-most passes breaking the opposition's defensive line in the Champions League this season (nine - level with Joshua Kimmich). And Atletico Madrid (35) are the only team with more defensive line-breaking passes than the Magpies (32) in the competition overall this term.

It appears Battlefield 6 has received a stealthy backend update that tweaks the way your player stats are tracked. Now, EA's military shooter will seemingly no longer count the bots you kill in a match, but if you get blasted by a bot, that death will still show up in your stats sheet for now. According to a November 18 X post by the community news source Battlefield Bulletin, the update was deployed to make the game's stats accurate and fair.
Toronto Raptors' wing Brandon Ingram has been fined $25,000 for "forcibly throwing his water bottle to the floor while on the bench," during the Raptors' 130-120 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Nov. 8 at Xfinity Mobile Arena. The bottle made contact with a game attendant and caused a game delay to dry the court, which occurred with 6:25 remaining in the third quarter.
Rogers has agreed to fresh terms with Unai Emery's side, having arrived at Villa Park for a reported £15m fee from Championship side Middlesbrough in February last year. The 23-year-old has become an integral part of Villa's squad since his arrival, scoring 18 goals and providing 17 assists in 86 appearances across all competitions. Indeed, 27 of his 35 goal involvements came during a stellar campaign in 2024-25, a total only bettered by Ollie Watkins (31) among Emery's squad.
Since joining on loan from Manchester United, the English forward has been nothing short of spectacular. In just 14 appearances across La Liga and the UEFA Champions League, Rashford has already contributed six goals and five assists, emerging as one of Barcelona's most decisive attacking forces this season. What makes Rashford's form even more impressive is how it compares to Joao Felix, another high-profile loanee who joined Barcelona in 2023.
Borucki, a former Blue Jays prospect who spent five seasons with the Blue Jays, was picked on a MiLB deal in late August after he was released by the Pittsburgh Pirates. He would appear in four games for the Jays this year, allowing just three hits with zero walks and zero runs across 4 1/3 innings while striking out five.
Arsenal central midfielder Martin Zubimendi is having a superb impact since joining the Gunners this summer, and he had arguably his best game for the club last night. Zubimendi ran the show from midfield as Arsenal thrashed Atletico Madrid 4-0 in a stunning Champions League performance, and it's earned him big praise. Football stats expert Statman Dave posted on X to show just how good Zubimendi's numbers were in last night's game, with the Spain international excelling in every department.
Tucker isn't going into free agency with the ideal amount of momentum. His 2024 season was truncated by a shin fracture. His 2025 campaign was dragged down by a finger fracture and a calf strain. He missed some time and didn't perform up to expectations in the last few months before hitting the open market. Regardless, he's head and shoulders above everyone else listed here.
Hidalgo is coming off a season that saw the talented guard become just the fourth sophomore to earn All-America honors in her first two years. USC's JuJu Watkins also accomplished that feat last season, but is out for this year while she's recovering from a torn ACL she suffered in the NCAA Tournament. Courtney Paris and Maya Moore were also All-Americans their first two seasons.
ATLANTA -- Darnell Mooney's injury issues continued Sunday, as the Atlanta Falcons ruled out the wide receiver late in the third quarter due to a hamstring issue.

Mooney missed all of training camp with a shoulder injury.

Fernandes made his 200th Premier League appearance for United on Saturday, and marked it by scoring his 100th goal for the club in all competitions. The Portugal international, who joined United from Sporting CP in January 2020, prodded home in the 14th minute of a topsy-turvy clash with Chelsea, in which both teams were reduced to 10 men and the Red Devils came out 2-1 victors.
Bo Bichette will not return before the start of the postseason, Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters this evening (via Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet). However, Schneider said that a recent second evaluation on the shortstop's sprained left knee was encouraging enough that he could resume baseball activities later in the week. Bichette suffered the injury a week and a half ago when he collided with Yankees catcher Austin Wells in a play at home plate.
The Nationals announced Friday that infielder/outfielder Darren Baker, whom they had designated for assignment earlier in the week, went unclaimed on waivers and was assigned outright to Triple-A Rochester. He'll remain with the organization but will no longer occupy a spot on the 40-man roster. The 26-year-old Baker made his major league debut with Washington last September and went 7-for-14 with two doubles and five singles.
In true Harry Kane fashion, he celebrated his big day with another stellar performance. The striker put it on the plate for "The Chef" Serge Gnabry to head it in for the opening goal. It was a beautiful inswinging cross that found the gap between the opposition's defenders perfectly and in sync with the run from Gnabry. Minutes after the break, Kane set up Michael Olise with a line-breaking through-ball.
The Dodgers were the third team Kennedy played with this season, as he also spent time with the Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays. Overall, the infielder appeared in 13 games this season, going 2-for-29 (.069) with one run batted in and eight strikeouts. Kennedy was initially drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the fifth round of the 2017 MLB Draft. He debuted with Arizona in 2022.
"With everything I've been through in my career, being at the ceremony is already a victory for me. One of the biggest in my professional life. It's not really a goal that I set for myself. My goal is to be better than I was yesterday, to be better than I was last season. So, if I'm at the Ballon d'Or ceremony, that's already a victory for me."
Alexis Lafreniere started the year strong but faced locker room issues, leading to concerns about his performance. He finished with 17 goals and 45 points, down from his previous season's 57 points.
DiJonai Carrington has been traded to the Minnesota Lynx, who aim to return to the WNBA Finals. The Washington Mystics reset by trading Brittney Sykes to the Seattle Storm.
