Reading Women fought back from 3-1 down at half-time to claim a thrilling 5-3 victory over Chesham United at The Meadow on Sunday.
Chesham made a flying start, with Holly Fitzgerald and Ruby Slade scoring within two minutes of each other to put the hosts 2-0 ahead. Alice Curr pulled one back for the Royals, but United restored their two-goal advantage before the break when Henrietta Cunnison headed home from a corner to make it 3-1 at the break.
The first half was made even worse after an injury to Leah Why, last weekend's hat-trick hero, who hobbled off with ****** istance from two members of the Reading coaching team before being taken to hospital for further tests.
Reading bounced back with a determined second half, however. Bethan Poole struck first to give the Royals renewed vigour before Nat Cowell scored twice to complete the turnaround and put Reading in front, before Ellie Luscombe opened her account for the season and added a fifth goal, capping off an impressive turnaround and putting the result beyond doubt.
In the most autumnal of conditions, with torrential rain falling throughout the afternoon, the Royals displayed grit, tenacity and strength of character, fighting back to secure their second consecutive away league win of the season.

Juventus were soundly beaten in an embarrassing 3-0 victory at home against Lazio on Sunday evening, and to make matters worse for the Bianconeri, Francisco Conceicao is now looking at up to a month on the sidelines as the club fear he has suffered a dislocated shoulder.
Goals from Oliver Provstgaard, Gustav Isaksen and Fisayo Dele-Bashiru gave Lazio a 3-0 victory away against Juventus at the Allianz Stadium on Sunday night, which has sent Gennaro Gattuso's side back to the top of the Serie A standings along with Inter, while the Bianconeri sit eight points off the lead after seven league games in 2026-27.

This result leaves Juventus in a worse position after seven matches of the 2026-27 season than they were at the same stage last year, just before previous head coach Igor Tudor was given his marching orders.
To make matters worse, the club are concerned that Conceicao has dislocated his shoulder, according to Monday's reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Milan picked up a 3-2 victory over Atalanta on Sunday evening to keep their unbeaten start to the 2026-27 Serie A season alive, but newspapers in Italy have highlighted a 'growing problem' with the Rossoneri under recently-appointed head coach Ruben Amorim.
Milan were 3-0 up after an hour thanks to goals from Goncalo Ramos, Adrien Rabiot and Mario Gila in San Siro. Record signing Ramos had an opportunity to make it four from the penalty spot, but was unable to convert at the second time of asking.

From there, Atalanta began to grow back into proceedings, reducing the deficit through Gianluca Gaetano in the 66th minute and then again through Nikola Krstovic in the 81st. It was a nervous wait for the final whistle for Milan from there on in, with a few important saves from goalkeeper Mike Maignan to keep the victory intact.
Post-match reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport claim that Milan are 'on the right track' under Amorim, but a 'growing issue' has been identified. The Pink Paper suggests that Amorim's system simply demands too much from the Milan players on a physical level, which might explain why the team seem unable to keep the same level of performance for the full 90 minutes.

Roma will host Slovan Bratislava tomorrow evening (9:00 PM) at the Stadio Olimpico, a match valid for the third round of the Champions League league format.
The Giallorossi are desperate to secure all three points, having started their European campaign with a draw at Fenerbahçe and a home defeat against Real Madrid.
A surprise attack is not out of the question ahead of the European night.
As La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, the possibility of seeing Castro and Malen on the pitch together is rising. Gasperini himself mentioned this after the win against Genoa.
Malen and Castro could have a chance from the start against Slovan Bratislava. The two forwards, as has been seen this season, are generally alternates.

Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens had six catches (on 11 targets) for 73 yards versus the Green Bay Packers in Week 6.
SOURCE: USA TODAY
Why It Matters: In the latest example of "garbage time points count the same," Pickens rode some consolation opportunities to lead the Cowboys in receiving with 73 yards on Sunday night. Prior to that, it was a forgettable evening for Dallas' No. 2 receiver. While it's still relatively early, it's safe to say that Pickens has not had the same level of impact that he did last season -- in 16 games (tossing out Week 18 when he hardly played), Pickens averaged 89 yards per game with nine TDs; thus far in 2026, he's averaging 71 yards per game with just one score. The fifth-year pro came into the season as a borderline WR1, but he's settled into being more of a midrange WR2.

It was during this time that Douglas had what he describes as "a wildly embarrassing incident with Julia Roberts that stuck with me for years."

Kellon Deryck will never forget the day he met Megan Thee Stallion. It was 8 years ago, and the celebrity hairstylist was trying to keep it professional on his first job with the rapper. But Megan wasn't having it, he recalls, laughing.
"I'm normally pretty shy when I first meet someone, so the first day we worked together, I was quiet; I was just there to do my job," he explains. "She **** near tickled me into laughing and talking like, 'Who is this up in here? Who are you?' She made me show my personality. She pulled it out of me." And from that day forward, they were inseparable.
"Even when we're not at work, we're on FaceTime talking about what we're about to do next or how our night was, what we ate, and what TikTok we're about to do, and what food we want to try," says Deryck. "We literally do everything together."

The Boston-born, Atlanta-bred hair pro has been behind some of Megan's most unforgettable hair moments, from 2025's Met Gala, for which he crafted an artful, architectural copper-red ponytail inspired by Josephine Baker, to the towering, out-of-this-world sculptural updo he molded for InStyle's September cover. "I always know what story she's trying to tell with her hair," Deryck explains. And over the years, he and Megan, ever the hair chameleon, have done nearly "every kind of look." Their résumé runs the gamut from candy-colored finger waves and Marie Antoinette poufs to jet-black clouds of curls, glossy flipped bobs, Old Hollywood waves, and Rapunzel-length tumbles. His work has even made its way into Megan's lyrics: In "Don't Stop," she raps, "40-inch weave by Kellon, don't tangle."

Awards show red carpets may be the perfect place to scout the latest formal fashion trends, but they're also major predictors of jewelry fads. We can tell a lot about what accessories might be coming back into fashion based on what ice the A-listers adorn themselves with, and at the 2026 Emmys, a few jewelry trends were abundantly clear. Being a distinguished and prestigious event, the Emmys naturally attracted high-end jewelry style made up of diamonds, other rare gems, and curated pieces from the world's top jewelry houses.
Necklaces are often the first accessory to catch the eye, and this year's show was full of loud, bold, and over-the-top designs that brought all the drama and then some. The common thread through all of 2026's jewelry trends is clear: Quiet luxury is out, and celebrities have taken note. TV stars like Nicole Kidman, Sarah Pidgeon, and Lisa Rinna had all eyes (and camera lenses) on them as they graced the carpet in eye-catching pieces that made it their business to be unforgettable. The Emmys also saw the return of a few more vintage-coded jewelry trends that are perfect for older women in 2026, from classic earring styles to long-adored gemstones straight from the sea.
Many of the biggest stars on the red carpet demonstrated their style expertise by flawlessly rocking more than one of these jewelry trends at once. With these pieces showing up on multiple famous faces — and sometimes layered with each other to create the ultimate style moment— there's no doubt that they're officially the trendiest high-end jewelry movements of the year.

At the Cascale annual meeting in Athens on Wednesday, Asif Khan, executive director of supply chain and sustainability at Mondetta, acknowledged the central conflict undercutting fashion's green ambitions: while sustainability demands a long-term sourcing strategy, brands rely entirely on the ability to pivot at a moment's notice.
It's a commercial reality that constrains companies such as his, Khan admitted. Navigating a volatile environment shaped by fast-changing consumer demands, evolving trends and geopolitical instability, brands are unable to offer the multi-year purchasing guarantees that factories need to justify significant capital investments, he said.

Prince Harry reportedly wants Princess Diana's most iconic fashion moment to live on through Meghan Markle. Per a source, the Duke of Sussex wants her famous "revenge dress" to be passed on to his wife. The claim has reignited discussion about the late princess's legacy and Harry's deep bond with his mother.
Prince Harry reportedly wants to acquire Princess Diana's iconic revenge dress, with insiders saying that he feels Meghan Markle should inherit it. The dress in question is the black, off-the-shoulder Christina Stambolian gown Diana wore in June 1994 to a Vanity Fair party at the Serpentine Gallery in London.
On the same night Prince Charles admitted to infidelity in a televised interview, the late Princess of Wales stepped out in a daring, figure-hugging dress. The press instantly dubbed the moment her "revenge dress." It has since become a symbol of strength, independence, and reclaiming one's narrative.
Now, Diana's unforgettable black dress is heading to Sotheby's New York. The auction house will sell it on December 9 for an estimated $150,000 to $300,000. However, according to sources who spoke to Rob Shuter's Naughty But Nice, Harry doesn't see this as mere royal memorabilia.
"Harry sees that dress as a symbol of his mother taking back her power," they explained. "Diana wore it to clap back at Charles, Camilla, and an institution that had made her miserable. In Harry's mind, Meghan understands that story better than almost anyone."

TV's biggest night has brought us some of the most breathtaking and unique jewelry moments, from Zendaya's 17-carat diamond necklace to Sofia Vergara's 100-carat drop earrings.
In honor of the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards, InStyle gathered the most unforgettable jewelry moments to grace the red carpet through the years.
When it comes to carat count, the term "less is more" no longer applies—just ask the stars who have graced the Emmys red carpet through the decades. Just last year, Sydney Sweeney sparkled in over 175 carats of diamonds from Lorraine Schwartz Jewelry. In 2024, the center stone alone in Selena Gomez's Jean Schlumberger by Tiffany necklace weighed in at a whopping 35 carats.
Of course, size isn't the only defining factor of a stunning jewelry moment—uniqueness is what makes a piece truly unforgettable. Take Kelly Osbourne's $250,000 manicure, which is still making waves over a decade later. Her polish, from luxury jeweler Azature, contained a cool 267 carats worth of black diamonds, as reported by Today. Or, maybe Billy Porter's 2021 look is more your style; he appeared in a peacock-like necklace dripping with nearly 50 carats of diamonds and over 34 carats of emeralds, according to Page Six.
In anticipation of the blinding jewelry moments that are sure to stun at tonight's 78th Primetime Emmy Awards, join us for a look back at the 15 most extravagant jewelry moments in Emmys history.

The Clasico Regio ended in a 0-0 draw as neither team was able to find that breakout goal. The match was supposed to be one filled with excitement and passion, as is every rivalry game, but this one fell short of that by miles. Now Monterrey will prepare for a difficult game against current champions Cruz Azul while Tigres will face 18th place Juárez.
The beginning of the game seemed to set the tone for the game as Monterrey spent the first 10 minutes pressing high. They were not giving Tigres any room to breathe. This high pressure led to frustrations for the visitors who committed fouls left and right. Joaquim even went as far as committing an unnecessary reckless foul and he was awarded the first yellow card seven minutes into the game. In the 10th minute that high pressure paid off with a dangerous opportunity as the Rayados made their way up the right flank. The ball was crossed into the box but Mauro Lainez was there to kick the ball out of danger. A few minutes later and the home side had another opportunity as Orbelin Pineda beat his mark on the left wing and made his way into the box. Unfortunately he did not shoot as he tried to find the perfect angle and in the process he was dispossessed.
By the 30 minute mark the game had hit a stalemate as both teams attempted to break the other down but the defenses stood strong. Monterrey weren't pressing with the high intensity as they had at the beginning of the game meanwhile Tigres were just trying to make their way forward but were unable to make any real threats. A few minutes later Monterrey had a big chance at goal as Lucas Ocampos received a cross in the box that he sent towards the net but Nahuel was there to make the save. This seemed to awaken Rayados who picked up the intensity but were stopped short by Tigres who started to foul again. Mauro Lainez even picked up a yellow for a foul. The half ended with both teams pushing but unable to find anything.
The second half started like the first with Monterrey putting pressure on Tigres who had trouble moving the ball forward. They then had a dangerous chance in the 55th minute when Juan Brunetta stole the ball at the halfway line and made a run towards his opponents box. Instead of making his way into the box he shot from distance but the ball went over the crossbar. Brunetta seemed to be the only one on Tigres who was attempting to make any breakthroughs while his teammates did little to help him. In the 60th minute the visitors had a big chance as they were awarded a free kick outside of the box due to a Rayados foul. The ball made its way inside the box where Alan Franco headed the ball towards the net but Andrada collected the ball.
It wasn't until the 65th minute that either team made substitutions as Monterrey struck first as Matias Almeyda decided to put fresh legs in at striker. A few minutes later Victor Vucetich also brought in two players with fresh legs looking for a spark his team needed. These changes didn't work for eith

Emily Blunt reunited with co-star Meryl Streep for an unforgettable high-fashion evening in New York City. Attending The Devil Wears Prada 2 Wardrobe Auction, the English actress commanded total attention on the red carpet. Captivating fashion lovers and photographers everywhere, she proved once again that classic black gowns can deliver maximum drama, movement, and modern playfulness.
For the high-profile charity auction, Blunt wore a striking runway piece straight from Christian Cowan's Spring/Summer 2027 collection. Her long-time stylist Jessica Paster curated the monochromatic look, which expertly balances modest coverage with daring sheer texture. The top portion of the dress features a sleek, form-fitting black turtleneck knit with snug long sleeves. Below the hips, the structured knit stops, giving way to sheer netting completely covered in cascading black fringe tassels.
The floor-length black fringe moved with every step, while crystal-embellished Dolce & Gabbana satin sandals added a subtle sparkle beneath the hem. The sandals' crystal straps were occasionally visible through the swinging fringe, complementing the otherwise monochromatic look.
Posing on the red carpet, Emily shared a warm moment with legendary co-star Meryl Streep. Emily wrapped one arm affectionately around Meryl's shoulder as both actresses smiled brightly for the camera line. Meryl looked equally chic in a patterned silk dress, creating an iconic reunion snapshot that delighted fans of the classic fashion film.
Emily's glam team kept her beauty routine polished and timeless to complement the dramatic dress. She wore her warm blonde hair pulled back into a neat, slicked-low bun. Her makeup featured radiant skin, soft bronzer, subtle winged eyeliner, and a glossy berry-pink lip. By contrasting a simple long-sleeved turtleneck with an ultra-fun fringe skirt, Emily Blunt executed high fashion with complete confidence.

MIDDLETOWN - There are plenty of words that a veteran football coach like Xavier High School's Sean Marinan would like to hear his starting quarterback say in the season opener. It's safe to say that "hyper" would be pretty far down the list.
However, Maxwell Murphy summarized the forgettable opening quarter perfectly for the host Falcons. Once the nervous energy went away, Xavier took control en route to a 27-2 win over East Haven on Friday night.
"We started off a little hyper," Murphy said. "I was hyper in the first quarter, but we responded really well. Our defense looked great and I think our offense responded well."
Murphy threw two of his three touchdown passes in the second quarter to get the Falcons going. The defense took care of the rest.
East Haven scored first when a high snap on a punt by Xavier sailed out of the end zone. It was still a 2-0 game before Murphy connected with Eli Halvorsen on a 17-yard touchdown pass.

Breakout loading. At least that's what the Dallas Cowboys hope after they inked tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford and receiver Ryan Flournoy to a pair of extensions this week. In a break from the norm, the Cowboys went out on a limb and played the speculation market. Channeling his inner oilman, owner Jerry Jones has put his money where his mouth is and bet big on breakouts.
In previous years, it was the Cowboys waiting until after a breakout was achieved before extensions were offered. Terence Steele was signed to a five-year, $82,500,000 deal after his breakout season in 2022. Jaylon Smith was regrettably signed to a five-year, $63,750,000 extension after his breakout season in 2018. And even Dak Prescott, Trevon Diggs and DaRon Bland got signed after already establishing themselves high among the NFL hierarchy.
It doesn't take Wallstreet stockbroker to know investing after something has already blown up has its drawbacks. Sure, seeing success insulates from risk, but it also means investors are buying high.
