games and i'm very optimistic and positive. we are all united and positive. we are all united and the team plays well, they play attractive football and if we must fight to in that respect back in europe we will do that. these are the games on tuesday. manchester city take on slovan bratislava — the team that lost 5—1 in their opening game to celtic, who play borussia dortmund. four other teams including bayer leverkusen and sporting will be attempting to claim their second win of the new league stage of the competition. despite two days without play, india have wrapped up victory in the second test against bangladesh and with it a 2—0 series clean sweep. jasprit bumrah and ravindra jadeja combined to take six of the 8 wickets to fall early on the final day in kanpur as bangladesh were bowled out for 146 in their second innings. india only needed 95 to win and went quickly — not as quickly as their historic 8 runs an over in the first innings but still completed a seven wicket victory reaching their target in under 18 overs. after more than 600 days without a win, a run of 2a defeats that nearly

led to her quitting tennis, zhang shaui has reached the quarter finals of the china open. that's four wins all in straight sets and at 595 in the world she's the lowest ranked player to ever get to the last 8 in beijing. after beating magdalena frech zhang will now play paula badosa who provided another shock by beating second seed jessica pegulsa. having lost to the american us open finalist three times in their first three meetings. badosa breezed through 6—4 6—0. after a terrible start to the season which left the new york mets' hopes of making the major league baseball playoffs apparently in tatters. they sealed a spot in the national league wild card round on the final day of the regular season. in a spectacular first game of two in atlanta against the braves who have long been one of the mets' nemeses. new york came from 3—0 and 7—6 down to win thanks to a ninth—inning two run home run from francisco lindor. they'll enter the playoffs as the number 6 seed which earns them a series

against the milwaukee brewers. but the night wasn't done for atlanta. having to squeeze two games in after postponements due to hurricane helene, the braves won the second one 3—nothing against the mets to seal their own path to the playoffs and a wild card meeting with the san diego padres. meanwhile a perfect game is something you'd be more likely to hear in baseball. but detroit lions quarterback jared goff did that in the nfl on monday. nobody has ever managed to complete as many as 18 passes in the same game and goff even managed to catch one in the lions' a2—29 win over the seattle seahawks that takes his team to a 3—1 record while giving the seahawks their first defeat of the season. the new basketball season is just three weeks away and the nba is preparing to witness history — a father and son on the same team for the first time. lebron and bronnyjames will both be on the la lakers team this year after the nba's all time scoring leader was joined by his son after bronny was drafted by his team injune. the two appeared together at the lakers' media day...
