Yamal and Raphinha were both on target in Barça's 4-0 win over Real Madrid when, toward the end of the match, they received abuse from fans in the stadium. "Three arrests have been made for racist insults aimed at two footballers during October's Clásico," the police confirmed on social media Saturday. "Those arrested made xenophobic statements that violated the dignity and moral integrity of both players." The investigation was launched after LaLiga reported the incident to the police. "The arrests follow a complaint filed by LaLiga that provided recordings of the incidents and a report from a lip-reading expert to the police," the league said in a statement Saturday. "At LaLiga, we continue to fight to end racism inside and outside of football." LaLiga's fight against racism has been increasingly in the spotlight following the repeated abuse of...

Parts of Scotland are bracing for a second day of disruption with high winds and localised flooding after Storm Bert swept heavy snow and rain across the country. The central belt was hit by more snow that anticipated early on Saturday, causing widespread problems on the roads. The M8 saw long traffic jams and two of the main routes south - the M74 and A68 - were closed for a time due to accidents. Lothian buses suspended all of its 70 routes across Edinburgh and surrounding areas and there was disruption to the rail network. But an amber weather warning for rain and snow in the east of Scotland was downgraded to a yellow warning for rain which will remain in place . In an unusual move, the Queensferry Crossing across the Firth of Forth was closed due to the threat of falling ice. Traffic in the area was diverted via the Forth Road Bridge. The diversion was due to remain in place until 01:00 on Sunday. David Bishop from the national road maintenance body Bear Scotland said the closure was due to concerns that ice sticking to the bridge's 70km of cable stays could fall and cause a "significant road traffic incident". It is the first time since 2021 the bridge has closed. All 700 buses in the Lothian Buses fleet ground to a halt for much of the day due to tough road conditions. The company announced services were back to normal early on Saturday evening. Edinburgh sightseeing buses were cancelled and there was disruption on Citylink, McGill's and First services. A dramatic image shared on social media showed a bus which had left the road at Buchlyvie, a village in the Stirling area. George Henry, head of road safety and road policy for Transport Scotland, said the conditions had been "challenging". He said: "We have been treating our roads around the clock, our operating companies have been out and we have used over 240 gritters. "Unfortunately there has been some impacts with various vehicles being stuck due to some vehicles losing traction at various location and we’ve tried to treat that as quickly as we can to minimise the disruption to the motoring public." Mr Henry said particular incidents had impacted the M8 near Livingston and the M74 at various points on Saturday. He added attention is now turning to the risk of localised flooding caused by the temperature rising and snow melting. "There will be lots of surface water so we urge the motoring public when they are returning to the roads to please take care and drive to the conditions they are faced with," he added. Regional flood alerts have been issued for parts of Dumfries and Galloway, west Borders, Central, Tayside, Aberdeenshire, Dundee and Angus regions. While a flood warning urging people to "act now" is in place for the Churchill Barriers in Orkney. A total of 11 were called off with kick-off times delayed on another three, including two in the Premiership. One of those called off was a league two match between Cove Rangers and Stenhousemuir, after the away team's bus got stuck in snow at Broxden Services outisde Perth. Over 3,000 homes in England and Wales are without power. Scotland has not been hit as hard, with both Scottish Power and SSE reporting just a few localised faults. The Met Office has warned a rapid thaw and subsequent rain may cause further disruption. A yellow weather warning for rain and snow remains in place for most of Scotland until 09:00 on Sunday. The Highlands and Argyll and Bute will see winds of up to 65mph on Sunday, with a yellow warning has been in place from 12:00 until 00:00. Forecasters say Storm Bert will be quite slow moving and will only start to clear from Monday.EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings waived cornerback Akayleb Evans on Saturday in another setback for their beleaguered 2022 draft class. Evans started 15 games last season, but he had been relegated to a special teams role this year after the Vikings added veteran cornerbacks Stephon Gilmore and Shaquill Griffin. Evans was a fourth-round pick out of Missouri, one of three defensive backs among Minnesota's first five selections in 2022. Lewis Cine (first round) was waived and Andrew Booth (second round) was traded earlier this year. One of their second-round picks, guard Ed Ingram, lost his starting spot last week. Evans was let go to clear a roster spot for tight end Nick Muse, who was activated from injured reserve to play on Sunday at Chicago. The Vikings ruled tight end Josh Oliver out of the game with a sprained ankle. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL
Two famous late fortune tellers predicted chaos for 2025. Vangeliya Pandeva Gushterova, better known as Baba Vanga, was a blind Bulgarian mystic and healer who claimed to foresee the future and accurately predicted major events including 9/11 . She was born in 1911 and died in 1996. Additionally, 16th-century French astrologer Nostradamus warned of “cruel wars” and an “apocalypse” next year. Baba Vanga's chilling 'great war' prediction could mean WW3 is just months awa 'Devastating' war in Europe next year predicted by Nostradamus and Baba Vanga Both believe anarchy will define 2025 and that Europe will be an epicenter. Notably, the predictions line up with a rare astrological event that occurred at the end of 2024 when the transformation planet Pluto moved into Aquarius. Astrologers predict that the next two decades will be defined by social upheaval and technological advancement as a result of the major astrological shift. Nostradamus, whose real name was Michel de Nostredame, accurately predicted many historical events in his book, Les Propheties, released more than 450 years ago. He prophesized the rise of Adolf Hitler, the shooting of President John F. Kennedy, the start of the Covid pandemic and 2022's cost of living crisis. Using astrology, he warned that "those from the lands of Europe" would find themselves involved in "cruel wars" in 2025. DON'T MISS...

The TDE breakout had high expectations after her standout appearance at Tyler, The Creator 's Camp Flog Gnaw festival. She crushed it, as was to be expected. If anything, Doechii raised her game, and gave fans one of the best Tiny Desk performances in ages. She ran through most of the standout cuts on her new tape, Alligator Bites Never Heal , but the live setting gave them new life and a new sound. Doechii brought a talented assortment of musicians to back her up. She enlisted an all female, all Black band comprised of DJ Miss Milan, two background vocalists, guitars and horns. The musical breakdowns throughout the Tiny Desk performance was nothing short of astounding. The way in which Doechii was able to flow atop these intricate instrumentals was thoroughly impressive. It helps, of course, that the songs themselves are excellent. Doechii ran through breakout viral hits like "Nissan Altima," as well as "Boom Bap" and "Catfish."

The rapper gave an impassioned backstory for the song prior to her performance, emphasizing its crucial place within the mixtape. "I wrote this song specifically for Black women," Doechii noted. "As a dark-skinned woman, there’s a very unique experience I’m trying to internalize. This is dedicated to all the beautiful Black women in the room." Social media exploded following the NPR performance. Many fans praised her aesthetic choices. The rapper, as well as her backing band, wore braids, while the choreography and musical flexibility of the band were note perfect. "This Doechii tiny desk was a life altering experience," one user tweeted. "And I hate that I can experience this for the first time only once." Another user praised Doechii's presence and ability to alternate between mellow and intense at a moment's notice. "The way she can rap like that and be animated is crazy, Doechii is a STAR & a true visionary all around," they tweeted. The rapper has been posed by TDE as the next big thing, and this performance certainly bolsters the vision.
