Xabi Alonso admitted he would love Chelsea to give him a "boring game" after their defensive woes allowed Hull to escape Stamford Bridge with a 2-2 draw on Saturday.
Alonso's side were cruising after Morgan Rogers drilled home in the seventh minute, but once again they paid the price for some sloppy defending.
Hull's Algerian winger Mohamed Belloumi blasted the equaliser after Chelsea failed to clear a long ball.
And Belloumi put the tireless Tigers in front when his deflected shot flashed in before half-time.
Cole Palmer's incisive run and cut-back in the 66th minute allowed Joao Pedro to bag Chelsea's equaliser.

OPEC+ is likely to leave its oil production policy unchanged for October when seven of its core members meet on Sunday, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing three sources close to the matter.
Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, Kuwait, Algeria, Kazakhstan and Oman are due to meet online at 11:00 GMT Sunday. The seven producers have spent much of 2026 raising their monthly production quotas, with the September increase completing the phased rollback of 1.65 million barrels per day of supply cuts first agreed in 2023.
Much of that additional supply has failed to reach the market. Actual production has lagged the higher quotas as the Iran war disrupted Gulf exports through the Strait of Hormuz, while the war in Ukraine has hit exports from Russia and Kazakhstan. OPEC production rose by 1.17 million bpd in July, but output remained well below the group's quotas.
The Iran war has also weakened OPEC+'s ability to influence the market. With Gulf exports constrained by the disruption in Hormuz, Reuters said the group's production decisions now have less impact on prices and market share than they did before the war.
Brent crude was trading near $94 per barrel Wednesday as renewed U.S.-Iran fighting and attacks on tankers kept attention on physical supply from the Gulf rather than OPEC+ production targets.

LONDON, Sept 2 (Reuters) - OPEC+ is likely to keep its oil output policy unchanged for October at a meeting on Sunday, three sources close to the matter told Reuters, as the producer group completes the unwinding of one layer of production cuts this month and turns its focus to 2027 quota negotiations.
The meeting comes as the Iran war continues to disrupt oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz, reducing OPEC+'s influence over prices and market share. Unlike in the past, the group's supply decisions now have a more limited impact on the market.
Sunday's meeting will involve seven core OPEC+ members: Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, Kuwait, Algeria, Kazakhstan and Oman. The countries have been raising monthly production quotas for most of this year. Their online meeting is expected to begin at 1100 GMT, two of the sources said.
In practice, however, actual output has lagged the planned quota increases as the wars in Iran and Ukraine disrupted exports from the Gulf, Russia and Kazakhstan.

Manchester United made a shock approach to sign left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri from rivals Manchester City before the transfer deadline.
United checked with City on whether they could sign the defender on loan, following an approach from the Algeria international's representatives last week.
It is understood, however, that United were informed that a loan would only be possible with an obligation to buy, which United were not interested in.
The focus of United's summer has been on strengthening Michael Carrick's midfield, with deals for Carlos Baleba, Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos.
But left back was an area of concern ahead of the deadline with United lacking established options beyond former England international Luke Shaw.

Brighton & Hove Albion are reported to have reached a verbal agreement with BSC Young Boys regarding the transfer of Jaouen Hadjam (23), according to Foot Mercato. The final details of the deal are reportedly being finalised.
Having come through the youth ranks at Paris Saint-Germain and Créteil, the left-back made his professional debut for Paris FC, which he joined in 2018. Transferred to FC Nantes in the winter of 2023, Hadjam spent just one year there before moving to the Bern-based club. In Switzerland, the Paris-born player quickly established himself as a key player for BSC, but saw his progress hampered by a syndesmotic ligament tear last January.
Despite this injury, he still managed to make 30 appearances last season, proving decisive on six occasions with two goals and four **** ists.
An Algerian international with 21 caps, Hadjam notably played in this summer's World Cup, featuring in three of the four matches played by Les Fennecs in the tournament.

Gulf oil producers are finding new ways around the Strait of Hormuz, but bypassing the world's biggest oil chokepoint creates new risks.
VLCC Rates Go Ballistic as Hormuz Turns Into a Freight Jackpot
- VLCC prices are ballooning out of control (once again), pushing ***** sed earnings for a Middle East-to-China voyage beyond $500,000 per day as the flow of vessels moving out of the Gulf trickled down to a mere couple per day.
- Amidst news that Saudi Aramco resumed crude loadings at its key Ras Tanura export terminal, VLCC fixing costs for inside-Hormuz cargoes jumped to a whopping $31 million per voyage, as seen this week with the Mongolia Prosperity supertanker.
- Saudi Aramco loaded at least three VLCCs (Malaysia Prosperity, Algeria Prosperity and Singapore Prosperity) in the Gulf last week, all owned by Sinokor, offering them to Asian buyers via ship-to-ship transfers off Fujairah in the UAE on a prompt basis.

Cameroon claimed a first Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) ****** le when they thumped surprise package Malawi 3-0 in the final, as Marie Ngah's first-half double helped seal victory on Sunday.
Cameroon had lost three finals but made it fourth-time lucky against a Malawi side making their debut at the continental championship. Ranked 153 in the world and 32nd on the African continent, Malawi had a fairytale run to the decider.
The two finalists had already sealed their place at the Women's World Cup in Brazil next year, along with fellow semifinalists Morocco and Algeria. The latter finished third after winning the bronze medal fixture on penalties on Saturday.
Under pressure FIFA chief Gianni Infantino was all smiles as he handed the Indomitable Lionesses their medals in the presence of Confederation of African Football President Patrice Motsepe, with several players requesting photographs with the Swiss.
Infantino has long enjoyed the support of many on the African continent as he bids for re-election next March despite revelations of his now-abandoned plans to sell a stake in future World Cups that drew worldwide condemnation.

RABAT, Morocco (AP) — Algeria defeated Morocco 3-2 on penalties to finish third at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations on Saturday and leave its old rival with a bitter taste after failing to win any of the three editions in a row it has hosted.
Morocco's Nouhaila Benzina had the chance to seal victory in stoppage time with a penalty, but she struck the post and the match finished 1-1 to set up the shootout.
Benzina's spot kick was awarded after a VAR check penalized Algeria's Lana Smits for catching Sakina Ouzraoui in the face with a flailing arm. Ouzraoui stayed down and held her mouth as she waited for the referee's whistle.
Lina Boussaha had scored late for Algeria, canceling out Kautar Azraf's goal before the break for the hosts.
Algeria goalkeeper Chloe N'Gazin saved two penalties in the shootout, leaving Morocco coach Jorge Vilda – who won the World Cup with Spain in 2023 – nonplussed on the sideline.

Two Bundesliga midfielders could be headed for the Premier League before the transfer window closes, with Crystal Palace showing concrete interest in Eintracht Frankfurt's Farès Chaïbi and Ipswich Town continuing their pursuit of Bayer Leverkusen's Exequiel Palacios. According to Sport Bild, Crystal Palace are considering a move for Chaïbi. No formal offer has yet arrived in Frankfurt, though one could reportedly follow soon.
A potential departure would pose no significant problems for Eintracht. The RheinMainAdler have built their preferred midfield partnership for the coming season around new additions Noël Aséko and Raphael Onyedika.
Chaïbi's versatility remains one of his major selling points. The Algeria international can work centrally or further forward and has established himself as a regular for his national team since arriving in Frankfurt in 2023.
Interest from England is also nothing new. Aston Villa and Brentford have previously been linked with Chaïbi, while his recent World Cup performances for Algeria further raised his profile.
There has meanwhile been a significant development in Exequiel Palacios's situation at Bayer Leverkusen. According to the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger, the 27-year-old has now explicitly informed Leverkusen of his desire to leave. Previous reports had suggested that Palacios was considering a transfer without having formally requested one.

Malawi is headed to the Women's World Cup for the first time ever, clinching the last of four spots guaranteed to African nations thanks to a 2-1 win over Ghana in the Women's African Cup of Nations (WAFCON) quarterfinals.
While Malawi and Algeria are set to debut in the competition after WAFCON wins, Nigeria's streak of making every WWC since the tournament began in 1991 is at risk of being snapped.
The Indomitable Lionesses fell 1-0 to Cameroon in their quarterfinal in Casablanca with Maéva Nyadjou scoring a first-half goal and Cameroon goalkeeper Michaely Bihina made nine saves to deny Nigeria a place in the WAFCON semifinals.
It is the first time in the competition's history Nigeria won't take one of the semifinal places, but the team is likely more concerned about a perilous situation to reach the 2027 Women's World Cup in Brazil.
Earlier in the weekend, Algeria beat the Ivory Coast to book its first place in the Women's World Cup and Morocco held off 2023 qualifiers South Africa.

Algeria and Malawi have qualified for their first Women's World Cup, booking a place in Brazil next year by advancing to the semifinals of the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations this weekend. Morocco and Cameroon also secured qualification with their wins, the latter shocking ten-time WAFCON champions, Nigeria.
Morocco are heading back to the World Cup after making their debut in 2023, while Cameroon are set for their third World Cup appearance.
WAFCON hosts Morocco, who finished as runners-up in the prior two continental tournaments, will now take on Cameroon in the final four. The other semifinal will see a meeting between two first-time semifinalists, as Algeria face off against Malawi. Both semifinals will take place on Wednesday, Aug. 12, in Rabat.
With reigning champions Nigeria eliminated, there will be a new continental champion in Africa. None of the four semifinalists have ever lifted the trophy either.
The road to Brazil is not quite over for the defeated quarterfinalists. The losing quartet will have a chance to earn two berths to FIFA's inter-confederation play-offs in February 2027. On Thursday, Aug. 13, the two play-in matches will see Ivory Coast take on Ghana and, in a meeting between the previous two WAFCON champions, South Africa will take on Nigeria.

Celtic and Rangers have been pushing to sign Fares Ghedjemis over the last few months and the Frosinone star's valuation has gone up further.
The winger helped the club earn promotion to the Serie A last season, scoring 15 times in the Italian second division. This came as a sign of rising reputation, which led to the Hoops making a January approach which was rejected by Frosinone.
The two Glasgow clubs have made approaches of their own this summer too. Tuttomercatoweb confirm this, revealing that several clubs have expressed interest in the Algerian, who also played one game at the World Cup, being the first player in Frosinone history to play at the tournament.
Now, his valuation has reached €20 million. Monaco have tried to make a move of their own, offering €7 million plus bonuses but this hasn't proved enough.
As a result, it will take a significant effort from every suitor to land the Algeria international.

Spanish outlet La Nueva Espana have claimed that the skilful winger was offered a five-year contract worth £2million per year from the unknown club.
That equates to around £38,500 per week, but it isn't enough to convince Hassan to make the move
The outlet further suggests that the 24 year old isn't interested in a move to the Gulf State, and will only consider a move to another European club, leaving the door open ever so wider for Celtic to make their move before transfer window slams shut in a few weeks time.

Celtic have been told to pay €9.5m to sign Farès Ghedjemis. The Algerian winger was name checked by Martin O'Neill last week as a potential summer arrival as he looks to strengthen his squad.
According to transfer journalist Sebastian Vidal, Celtic have been told to increase their offer for the winger by €2.5m.
Celtic are expected to return for Ghedjemis but Frosinone are sticking to their valuation of the player. In any case, Celtic are going to have to pay more than they've currently offered for the winger.
Celtic have added Camilo Duran and Kasper Høgh to bolster their attacking options with the frontmen replacing Daizen Maeda and Kelechi Iheanacho. It was clear after the win over Dundee that Celtic needed an injection of pace into the wide areas to freshen up the squad. Ghedjemis' performances in Serie B caught the attention of Celtic in January but no deal was forthcoming. Now, Celtic need to get deals over the line to make sure that they are in top form for the UCL doubleheader against LASK.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup wrapped last month, and with it went 39 days of the kind of moments that make a tournament unforgettable: a teenage phenom stealing highlight reels with his flair, a scrappy underdog nation refusing to go home, a 40-year-old goalkeeper turning in the performance of his career, a nine-figure transfer rumor before the confetti had even settled. For four weeks, the entire sports world organized itself around this single competition. But the appetite for those storylines didn't end when the final whistle blew, and it doesn't need a men's tournament to be satisfied. Right now, in stadiums and arenas across the world, women's sports are producing the exact same arcs: breakout stars, Cinderella runs, veteran redemption stories, record-breaking numbers, and transfer fees rewriting what the sport is worth. They're just not getting the same attention. Here are five World Cup moments and the women's sports stories playing out in real time that deserve to be next on your watchlist.

Liked Lamine Yamal's flair? Watch Morocco's Atlas Lionesses at WAFCON.
Yamal spent this World Cup as one of the most-watched players on the planet, a teenager with more than 50 million Instagram followers turning every touch into a moment. Morocco is hosting the Women's Africa Cup of Nations for a third straight edition, running through August 16 across Rabat and Casablanca, and the Atlas Lionesses have opened their campaign in commanding form. They beat Kenya 4-0 to open the tournament, then beat Algeria 1-0 to move to two wins from two matches, sitting atop Group A with five goals scored and none conceded. The breakout to watch is Barcelona Femení prospect Kautar Azraf, flagged by CAF as one of the country's brightest young talents ahead of her first senior call-up, the same "unproven teenager announces herself on the biggest stage" arc that made Yamal a global name this summer.

Cape Verde's men's team was one of the World Cup's most beloved stories, a nation of fewer than 600,000 people holding its own against the sport's giants. Their women's game has its own version unfolding right now. Cape Verde and Malawi are both playing in their first-ever Women's AFCON this year

RB Leipzig are on the verge of completing the signing of VfL Wolfsburg striker Mohamed Amoura, according to reports from France and Algeria. The 26-year-old is expected to remain in the Bundesliga despite Wolfsburg's relegation to the second division.
Amoura's agent confirmed that talks with Leipzig are well advanced and expressed confidence that an agreement will soon be reached.
"Mohamed Amoura will play for the German club RB Leipzig, with whom we are in negotiations, and we hope these will lead to a final agreement. Negotiations with the German club are already at a very advanced stage, and we wish our player every success in his new challenge."
While no transfer fee or contract details have been disclosed, the move appears to be nearing completion. Amoura had also attracted interest from Benfica and Everton, but Leipzig now seem to be leading the race for his signature.
The Algeria international joined Wolfsburg permanently last summer after an initial loan spell and registered eight goals and four ***** ists in 33 competitive appearances during the 2025/26 campaign. He remains under contract until 2029, meaning Leipzig and Wolfsburg still need to agree on a transfer fee.

Celtic have revived their interest in Farès Ghedjemis after fresh reports placed the Algerian winger back near the top of the club's shortlist. According to The Herald, the Scottish champions have reopened talks after narrowly missing out on the 23-year-old during the January transfer window, when Frosinone convinced him to remain and help their promotion push from Serie B.
Transfer Feed carried comments from Martin O'Neill, who admitted Celtic hold a "very, very strong interest" in Ghedjemis. While he stopped short of suggesting an agreement is close, O'Neill revealed discussions are progressing well. He added that he could not confirm whether Rangers are actively pursuing the winger despite recent speculation linking the Ibrox side with the same player.
The report states that negotiations for Real Oviedo's Haissem Hassan have slowed, making Ghedjemis a more realistic option. Frosinone are understood to value the Algeria international at around £8 million (€10 million) after a remarkable campaign that transformed his reputation across Italian football.

Statistics explain the growing interest. Ghedjemis finished the 2025/26 Serie B season with 15 goals and three ***** ists from 37 league appearances, playing 3,024 minutes as Frosinone secured automatic promotion by finishing second. His form carried into the international stage, earning regular Algeria call-ups before appearances during the country's run to the FIFA World Cup round of 32.

Three-time ISKA Kickboxing World Champion Akram "La Pepite" Hamidi made sure his hotly anticipated return to the global stage was one to remember, as he outpointed Watcharaphon Laochokcharoen in the headline attraction of ONE Friday Fights 164.
Their three-round battle capped a massive double-header Asia primetime weekend for ONE Championship, which also saw undefeated star Elbek Alyshov claim the ONE Bantamweight MMA World ******* le in the main event of The Inner Circle 24.
Action erupted almost immediately when Watcharaphon dropped the returning French-Algerian striker with a sharp left hook. The Thai, who vowed to tap into his trademark finishing power for this clash, kept his fists loaded while the referee initiated the count.
However, "La Pepite" quickly regained his footing and answered in kind, flooring the PK Saenchai Muaythaigym athlete with a right hook of his own to level the contest during a frantic opening round. With momentum on his side, Hamidi took the opportunity to display his full ******* nal in the second frame.
The French-Algerian warrior disrupted Watcharaphon's rhythm with slick sweeps, spearing knees, and well-timed teeps, while his opponent continued relying on heavy boxing. Those diverse attacks made the Team Valente representative increasingly difficult to read, and he punctuated one exchange by landing a right hand behind a knee.

Rangers are interested in bringing Frosinone attacker Fares Ghedjemis to Ibrox this summer, according to Sky Sports. Bears manager Derek McInnes has been strengthening his Rangers squad this summer as he looks to win the Scottish Premiership next term. The France-born Ghedjemis has now emerged as a target for the Light Blues after Celtic failed with a bid during the last winter transfer window. The 23-year-old Algerian international bagged 15 goals to help Frosinone secure Serie A promotion, which has impressed Rangers.
Ghedjemis featured at the World Cup and a move to Ibrox could now be on the cards. Rangers are now pushing for a deal and are making a strong move as he is their first target to strengthen in attack.
The Frenchman has several suitors keen on recruiting his services this summer, but the Bears appear to be one of the favourites to sign him. Frosinone will have to start looking elsewhere for attacking reinforcements as they look to impress in the Italian top-flight without the Rangers target.

The NFL has typically rewarded Super Bowls to cities building new stadiums — even if it's a smaller, midwestern city like Minneapolis, which hosted the 2018 game at U.S. Bank Stadium.
But even though the Kansas City Chiefs will be playing in a glitzy, $3 billion dome in 2031, owner Clark Hunt acknowledged the difficulty in landing a Super Bowl because six other teams are also slated to have new stadiums by then.
Kansas City's hosting of the World Cup, though, bolstered the city's chances.
"Not only did we pull it off, we dominated," Chiefs president Mark Donovan said. "That puts us on a different level now."
