In Rugby Union BREAKING NEWS: Rugby 7s global legend, Waisale Serevi has been hospitalized in Manipal Hospital in India with chest pains and diagnosed with unstable angina - his coronary angiogram revealed minor coronary artery disease.
Thankfully, Serevi is now stable and has been shifted out of ICU.
Keep smiling champ!
In Rugby League: Papua New Guinea’s bid for the NRL’s 18th franchise received a timely boost yesterday with a gutsy 20-42 loss in the annual clash against the Australian Prime Minister’s XIII in Port Moresby.
Inspired by a large and pumped up crowd, the home team burst out of the blocks to lead 12-0, with rising star, Judah Rimbu scoring after only three minutes, followed by Centre Robert Mathias slicing through to score out wide.
Halfback Jamie Mavoko converted both tries before the men in green and gold started to find their groove and three tries before half-time, lifted the Aussies to a 16-12 lead at the break.
Local fans headed home disappointed with the result but consoled by the knowledge that, if and when a PNG team is cleared to enter the NRL, there should be enough home-grown talent to be competitive.
In Football: England cruised to a 3-1 win over Finland in their UEFA Nations League clash in Helsinki overnight. Three days after their embarrassing 1-2 loss to Greece at Wembley, with Jack Grealish, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Declan Rice all scoring.
In Boxing: In the Beterbiev – Bivol fight in Saudi Arabia yesterday, Samoan-Australian southpaw Jai Opetaia, widely regarded as the best cruiserweight on the planet, took charge in the opening round and wore down Jack Massey whose trainer wisely pulled him out at the two-minute mark of the sixth round.
Opetaia improved to 26-0 (20 KOs).
