Manchester City clinches English Premier League title in stunning comeback

Published

Manchester City fans are screaming from the rooftops today as they produced a stellar comeback win against Aston Villa to take the English Premier League title

It was a game that was hanging in the balance until the final minutes. Manchester City fans thought the game was over when Pep Guardiola’s team was down 2-0.

Manchester City needed a victory to beat Liverpool to the trophy.

However, the game quickly changed when City scored 3 nerve-wracking goals, to leave them on a 3-2 victory and secure their title.

German international Gundogan proved to be Manchester City’s super-sub, as he scored them a lifeline in the 76th minute.

“It was an unbelievable game. I don’t know what to say to be honest,

“We are human beings and after going 2-0 down the chances were just very, very small. But we had to do the simple things and scoring two goals quickly and then having 10 minutes to score the third one gave us the right lift.

“It was about getting that goal and then the momentum was on our side then we were able to score three goals in just a few minutes. These are the days you look back to, it was an unbelievable game.”

Excited fans filled the pitch in an unstoppable fashion.

As for the rest of the ladder, Liverpool held onto the second spot at Etihad Stadium, despite a stunning win over Wolves.

“Congratulations to Man City and Pep Guardiola. Thank you to Aston Villa and Wolverhampton for making a proper game of it,

It’s not the result we wanted. It was a bit of a rollercoaster. I don’t know the results exactly but I know Villa were 1-0 up – were they 2-0 up as well? Of course at the moment there’s disappointment here as well.

92 points is absolutely incredible. We wanted it all, but now it’s OK.

Finishing second is the story of my life. I’m still record holder for not getting promoted in Germany with the highest points tally. You need to get more points than any other teams, but we didn’t do that.

Chelsea came in third, with a win over Watford.

Trump nominates Sydney influencer Nick Adams as US ambassador to Malaysia amidst diplomatic concerns and a controversial past.

Donald Trump has nominated Nick Adams, a former suburban councillor from Sydney, to be the US ambassador to Malaysia.

Adams, who has built a significant following as a MAGA influencer, is known for his self-presentation as an “alpha male” and “cultural thought leader”. His nomination is pending confirmation by the US Senate.

Adams previously made headlines as a deputy mayor in Ashfield for a controversial proposal to eliminate pigeons to prevent bird flu. He was suspended from the Liberal Party after verbal abuse towards a journalist in 2009, although he claimed to have resigned prior to the suspension.

Now an American citizen, Adams has founded a nonprofit organisation aimed at promoting conservative values among children. He is known for advocating “patriotic boycotts” against companies perceived to promote progressive values.

In a post following his nomination, Adams expressed gratitude to Trump for the opportunity to serve, highlighting his commitment to America. His past includes an educational background in media and communications, and he has been involved in various publicity stunts, some of which attracted media attention.

Experts have expressed concern over his lack of diplomatic experience, suggesting his appointment could damage US-Malaysia relations, especially given current geopolitical tensions.Adams’s appointment is viewed by some as a sign that Trump does not prioritise the foreign service, potentially leading to challenges in diplomatic relations with Malaysia.

Mushroom foraging tours face rising insurance costs

Erin Patterson’s murder trial has increased insurance costs for mushroom foraging tours, though insurers deny a direct link.

Erin Patterson’s murder trial has increased insurance costs for mushroom foraging tours, though insurers deny a direct link.

In Short:
Erin Patterson’s trial for poisoning relatives has raised concerns about rising insurance costs for mushroom foraging tours in Australia, impacting operators like Feresh Pizarro and Natasha Vorogushin. Despite increased premiums, the Insurance Council maintains these changes are not directly related to the trial, highlighting a need for better public education on fungi.

The trial of Erin Patterson, who poisoned three relatives with death cap mushrooms, has affected mushroom foraging tours in Australia.

Operators report rising insurance costs, though the Insurance Council of Australia states these increases are unlikely linked to the trial. Patterson was recently convicted, prompting concerns among tour guides like Feresh Pizarro, who claims her insurance premiums have skyrocketed, threatening her business viability.

She explains the importance of educating the public about fungi, which play significant ecological roles. Similarly, Natasha Vorogushin from Morwell faces challenges obtaining adequate insurance for her foraging workshops, illustrating industry-wide issues.

Insurance costs

Richard Ford, a tour operator in Mount Macedon, also notes high insurance costs looming over his activities. Despite these challenges, the Insurance Council asserts that insurance adjustments often do not arise from perceived risks associated with singular events, such as Patterson’s case.

University of NSW actuarial studies professor Michael Sherris believes that while premiums are rising generally, this specific trial is unlikely to affect the insurance landscape for mushroom foraging.
