While high-pressure drama brought joy for one, more often than not it was a tragedy in the form of elimination for the other team. Let us take a look at the 5 best late goals of the tournament. #5 Philippe Coutinho: Brazil vs Costa Rica (91') Brazil drew their first match against Switzerland in the group stages of the World Cup meaning that if they were held to a goalless draw against Costa Rica, they would certainly have to depend on the other teams to qualify....

A major reason for this struggle is the absence of Shikhar Dhawan from the squad. But no one has been able to score runs as prolifically as Dhawan. The left-right combination whenever Dhawan was at the crease with a right-hander provided the team with the perfect balance which helps unsettle bowlers. The only day Mitchell Starc really looked uncomfortable in the tournament so far was during the match against India....

All the important aspects of their game seem to be coming together beautifully. Their wrist spinners have had oppositions in a true fix and the quality of Jasprit Bumrah and Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been second to none. There are a few things for India to worry about. Lack of match time for Kedhar Jadhav and MS Dhoni as batsmen so far and the expensive returns of Hardik Pandya’s medium pacers....

The key reason behind South Africa’s failure has been the poor form of the entire team. Their openers Hashim Amla and Quinton de Kock are yet to score a hundred in the tournament while their captain Faf du Plessis has not been able to convert his starts into a big knock. The same is the case with the other players as well. Nevertheless, the team will take the field to battle Sri Lanka at Chester-le-Street in the 35th match of the World Cup....

In case you didn’t know… The ICC Champions Trophy 2017 winners are currently having a tough time in the United Kingdom.

While many players will be grateful to finally leave Battle for Azeroth behind, there are several achievements or rewards that will become unobtainable or much harder to get with no one around in older zones. Most of the community may have already finished up their bucket lists, but any remaining adventurers can make a final push to end the current expansion on a high note.

According to Kotaku, the show will be about cooking recipes associated with World of Warcraft and a quick look at the trailer reveals that many of the dishes Choi and his guests are working on have distinctly fantastical look to them. Some of the food looks like something fit for Orcs, with odd textures and strange colors. At one point we can also see a bunch of bananas being treated with a blowtorch, so even adventuresome cooks who don’t like World of Warcraft should be able to enjoy the show and maybe even get a few new ideas for their next dinner party....

While the wait for Shadowlands continues, Blizzard is still releasing material surrounding World of Warcraft.

It’s safe to say that Millhouse has become a household name in the World of Warcraft community, and his appearance never fails to bring out a smile. This unscrupulous mage of dubious morals has regularly featured in Hearthstone artwork, and it’s safe to say that he may be the second-most iconic gnome character in Warcraft lore at this point.

With there being a 500 Mount Achievement in World of Warcraft, all obtained from numerous sources and through different means, it made sense for Blizzard to offer more unique ways of procuring new steeds – or in this case, fantasy otters. World of Warcraft: Dragonflight sees the return of another beloved race from Wrath of the Lich King in the nomadic Tuskarr, and a newly added NPC in their settlement of Iskaara is the vendor selling the new mounts....

The addition of Covenant choice and that decision’s impact on class abilities is an interesting new wrench in the metagame, but the number crunchers are already hard at work figuring out which classes are going to climb to the top of the damage charts when World of Warcraft Shadowlands releases. It’s obviously too early to say for sure if there’s a clear best DPS class, but early testing data does include a few big winners and losers....

Some cite it as a proof of Deschamps’ tenacity and stamina in breaking up play and carrying it forward for the team while others argue that this was Cantona at his usual ruthless best inferring that Deschamps’ sole contribution was to break up play and give it to his more talented teammates.
