Ta Bi caught the eye from his very first appearance in red and white.
He's a skilful and tricky winger with a turn of speed and seems to be developing very well in the squad. The rawness we saw at the start is going as he improves his all-round game.
On Wednesday, he was very aware of what was going on around him — his head was up and he was looking to hurt the opposition.
He got slightly lucky when beating El Hadji Malick Diouf for the second goal, but if you don't try, nothing happens. Once round the defender, he laid it on a plate for Timur Tutierov and his speed of thought for the third goal was excellent, coupled with a perfect delivery.
I would imagine Régis Le Bris will continue to take it steady with him but must surely recognise that he could be a real thorn in the side for opponents as an impact substitute. He offers a genuine attacking threat and I think in the league, he'll have more chances from the bench.

BENTON — Fairfield senior running back Miguel Gutierrez is an unlikely success story.
He doesn't look like an average football player, as he stands only 5-foot-6 and weighs only 170 pounds.
"I'm pretty small," said Gutierrez.
Past results on the field also didn't suggest that Gutierrez would make a great impact as a football player. He rushed for just 252 yards on 55 carries last year for the Falcons.
But Gutierrez wasn't lacking confidence going into his senior season.

Plymouth Parkway boss Karl Curtis hopes his side can draw an English Football League side after making the FA Cup first round for the first time.
The Southern League Premier Division South club beat seventh-tier rivals Chertsey Town 2-0 at their Bolitho Park home to progress past the fourth qualifying round and make history.
"You want the fans to have their big day and the players, and us as staff as well," Curtis told BBC Radio Devon.
"It'd be huge if we could get a league club here at Bolitho because it would create memories regardless of the result.
"Whatever the outcome might be, it'd be one of those moments and days where people in 20 years' time people will be talking about it."

The controversy surrounding Farid Basharat's UFC release continues to grow, with the former bantamweight now hitting back at Dana White's remarks. The 29-year-old was let go despite remaining unbeaten, finishing his UFC run with a perfect 7-0 record and an overall MMA record of 16-0.
One of the biggest talking points since Basharat's release has been his lack of finishes. Six of his seven UFC victories came by decision, but he consistently got the job done against tough competition. His most recent outing was a win over John Garza in July, adding to a resume that includes victories over Jean Matsumoto, Chris Gutierrez, and Taylor Lapilus.
White was asked why Basharat was not offered a new contract during the UFC Edmonton post-fight press conference. The UFC CEO suggested that a fighter's record is not always the only factor behind such decisions, pointing to possible issues with the matchmakers and fighters turning down bouts. He also hinted that there was a specific reason Basharat was not brought back.
Dana White hints there may be MORE to Farid Basharat’s UFC exit
“If you’re 16-0 with seven wins in the UFC and don’t get re-signed, there’s definitely a reason.”

James Attwood: I don't really see how. Sure, the Brewers are a smaller market than the Dodgers. They have a much smaller payroll. But, if anything, the Brewers advancing is only going to fuel the MLBPA to get even stickier about trying to control salaries in any way, shape, or form. Also, even though plenty of fans and pundits like to give MLB front offices a hard time about making stupid decisions, those offices are by and large, stacked with incredibly intelligent people. Those people are going to be able to take a step back and recognize that one season's playoff picture is hardly a sample size large enough to be called indicative of the sport moving forward. There were questions after Arizona went to the World Series in 2023 about whether or not MLB had done enough to create obstacles for Wild Card teams in the playoffs, all because Arizona steamrolled the Brewers and Dodgers. This year, pundits are calling for the entire seeding system to be blown up because there was a team with a .500 record that not only made the playoffs, but won their division outright. Single seasons may bring some oddities, but they are usually not indicative of the reality of the game's overall health.
I suspect, both the ownership side of things and the MLBPA have already drawn their battle lines and have already started crafting their arguments. This outcome in the playoffs will do more to feed the online debates between fans and pundits than it will do for or against the CBA negotiations.
C. Wesley Baier: I think it will impact the CBA negotiations, but how much is the real question. I would be shocked if the MLBPA didn't use this as evidence against a salary cal, but I cant say if it wil be all that successful of a tactic.
Spencer: Nope. Anything can happen in a small sample size. Owners are greedy and want to abuse their employees/customers for profit still. Players are greedy and only care about the uppermost tiers of earning power. Fans will quiet down a little, but fan opinion and outrage has never been a driving force for either side.

Hayden Panettiere's daughter, Kaya, made a rare court appearance amid the legal dispute over her mother's estate.
The 11-year-old attended the Los Angeles Superior Court hearing virtually on Oct. 8 alongside her father, Wladimir Klitschko, Panettiere's former fiancé, according to The **** ociated Press and People. Kaya reportedly briefly appeared on camera to confirm her identity to the judge.
She was "soft-spoken and composed," People reported. The proceedings centered on Klitschko's request for "immediate" guardianship of Panettiere's estate on behalf of Kaya, the sole beneficiary, alleging "non-family members" have been misappropriating the "Nashville" star's property.
The judge ultimately granted Klitschko temporary guardianship of the estate and set another court date for Dec. 7, noting Kaya would not need to be present.

Hayden Panettiere's 11-year-old daughter, Kaya, has made an appearance in court alongside her dad, Wladimir Klitschko.
Kaya appeared remotely to confirm her identity during a hearing about guardianship of the late actor's estate, People reported.
The outlet described Kaya as "soft-spoken and composed" as she spoke to the judge.
Klitschko was granted temporary guardianship of his ex-fiancée's estate during Thursday's hearing.
In addition, his lawyer requested law enforcement investigate the "recovery of property believed to be misappropriated" by a non-family member. Earlier in the week, Klitschko filed court docs to request a law enforcement investigation into his claims that Panettiere's belongings were ******* ed after her death.
He believes "a non-family member previously connected to" the Heroes star had ******* ed some of her possessions, including jewellery, according to documents obtained by TMZ.

Hayden Panettiere's daughter Kaya has made a rare appearance at a court hearing alongside her father, Wladimir Klitschko, following her mother's death.
The 11-year-old joined remotely on Thursday, October 8, briefly appearing on camera to confirm her identity and that her father was with her. Wladimir remained off camera during that exchange.
The hearing marked a significant step in the former boxer's efforts to protect the inheritance of his only child with the late actress.
Wladimir shared this sweet photo of him, Hayden, and their daughter, Kaya (@ Instagram)
Judge Stephanie Santoro granted Wladimir temporary guardianship of Kaya's estate, giving him legal authority to safeguard her financial interests while arrangements for administering Hayden's estate continue.

Kaya Klitschko — the 11-year-old daughter of late actress Hayden Panettiere and Wladimir Klitschko — made a rare appearance in court on Thursday, October 8.
According to People, Kaya appeared alongside her father, 50, during a hearing over her late mother's estate.
While Kaya did not appear on camera, the outlet reported that she wore a white T-shirt and was soft-spoken when addressing the judge.
The former heavyweight champion filed a temporary guardianship in September over his ex's estate, as she died without a will. As Kaya was Panettiere's only heir, Wladimir took swift action to protect their daughter.
Kaya is "not a resident of California; this Court has jurisdiction over the guardianship of Kaya's estate because, as such heir, Kaya is entitled to the entirety of the ***** ets subject to Hayden's probate administration in California," Wlad claimed in court documents obtained by TMZ.

Hayden Panettiere's 11-year-old daughter Kaya appeared by video at a court hearing in Los Angeles Thursday, Oct. 8, as her father, Wladimir Klitschko, won permission to enlist police in recovering missing property. This allegedly includes jewelry "misappropriated" from the late Nashville star's estate.
Kaya spoke first at the hearing, politely greeting the judge from a seat in front of a set of curtains. "Was that you, Kaya?" the judge asked. "Yes, that was me," she replied. Her dad said he was with her using the same account, so he only had an audio connection. They then turned off Kaya's camera as Klitschko's lawyer explained what they were requesting.

Hayden Panettiere's jewelry has already been **** ed off after her death, according to her former fiancé, Wladimir Klitschko.
Panettiere, known for starring in TV shows Nashville and Heroes, died August 16 of an accidental drug overdose. She was 36.
In a new court filing, Klitschko requested temporary guardianship of the actor's estate on behalf of their 11-year-old daughter, Kaya, and shared his concerns that Panettiere's belongings have been mishandled since she died in August.
Documents filed Monday read that Klitschko "believes that a non-family member previously connected to Hayden sold certain items belonging to Hayden, believed to include jewelry, to a **** shop," according to Entertainment Weekly
Klitschko, 50, said that the **** shop has refused to disclose specific information about the items without police contact — leading to his worries that remaining items could be "sold, transferred or otherwise rendered unrecoverable."

Princess Diana left behind one of the world's most recognizable jewelry collections, and decades after her death, several of its most sentimental pieces continue to appear on Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. Kate received perhaps the most famous jewel of them all: Diana's sapphire engagement ring. Meghan, meanwhile, has worn a broader **** ortment of personal pieces, including the late princess' Cartier watch and striking aquamarine **** tail ring. However, determining who received the "best" collection is not as simple as counting diamonds. Some jewels Kate wore belonged to Diana, while others remained part of the royal collection and were merely loaned to both princesses.
Anwar Hussein Newscom/MEGA
Diana reportedly made her wishes clear before her death in 1997.
"I would like you to allocate all my jewelry to the share to be held by my sons, so that their wives may, in due course, have it or use it," she stipulated in a letter accompanying her will, according to Vanity Fair.
The exact division between Prince William and Prince Harry has never been publicly disclosed. Nevertheless, the pieces their wives have subsequently worn offer occasional glimpses into how Diana's personal collection may have been distributed. Kate and Meghan have both used the jewels to honor the mother-in-law they never met. Their selections also reflect their different public lives: Kate regularly wears statement pieces at state occasions, while Meghan frequently incorporates Diana's more personal accessories into contemporary outfits.

A federal judge has granted final approval to AT&T's $177 million settlement resolving lawsuits over two 2024 data breaches that exposed personal information belonging to millions of customers.
U.S. District Judge Sidney Fitzwater in Dallas approved the settlement Oct. 2, along with $59 million in attorneys' fees for lawyers who negotiated the deal, according to Reuters. The settlement faced dozens of objections, including arguments that the amount was inadequate compared to a $350 million settlement in separate litigation involving T-Mobile.
For AT&T customers who filed valid claims, the amount they receive depends on which data breach affected them, what information was exposed and whether they can document financial losses. Most customers receiving the tiered cash payments are expected to get far less than the settlement's advertised maximums.
Customers could receive between about $6.50 and $40 through the tiered payment system, according to court documents. Here's what to know.
The settlement has two funds totaling $177 million: $149 million for customers affected by the first data incident, known as AT&T 1, and $28 million for customers affected by the second incident, known as AT&T 2.

Disney raised prices on many of its theme park offerings today, coinciding with the start of the company’s new fiscal year. But consumers aren’t pushing back the way they did a few years ago.
Disney’s price hikes are an annual October ritual for the company, and it’s always a tricky balancing act between increasing revenue and consumers’ willingness to pay.
Many ticket types, passes and add-ons at Disneyland are not increasing at all this time. But premium products are getting more expensive, like the highest-level, skip-the-line service at Walt Disney World, which could now run just shy of the $500 mark during peak demand.
It’s a reflection of the company’s strategy: Spread the price boosts across different audiences, while leaving bottom-tier prices - like the slowest season, one-day, one-park tickets - unchanged.
Its theme parks strategy, Disney said, has evolved over time. Higher-priced premium products and add-ons, alongside targeted discounts and a refresh of older attractions, allowed the company this summer to generate the strongest parks and cruises revenue in two years.

Hayden Panettiere kept the engagement ring Wladimir Klitschko gave her after their relationship ended. Now her loved ones reportedly cannot find it, according to an Oct. 2 report from Us Weekly.
An unnamed source told the publication that friends and family suspect someone who spent time with Panettiere in her final days may have taken the ring while ***** ing her possessions.
The Heroes and Nashville actress died Aug. 16 at 36 in Greenville, South Carolina. The county coroner later ruled her death accidental, caused by the combined toxic effects of several drugs, Fox Carolina reported.
Panettiere and Klitschko's daughter, Kaya, 11, is her mother's sole heir, according to the ***** ociated Press. Her parents never married and ended their relationship in 2018.
Panettiere confirmed the engagement during an Oct. 9, 2013, appearance on Live With Kelly and Michael, after Kelly Ripa asked about the diamond on her hand. She said their schedules had prevented them from setting a wedding date, ABC News reported. Later that month, she told E! News she collaborated with Montblanc, refining ideas from a book of sketches.

Meghan Markle has officially launched her first holiday collection – including a stunning advent calendar inspired by her Montecito home.
But the **** ss of Sussex's latest promotional images for her As Ever lifestyle brand sparked some confusion on social media due to an "optical illusion" in one of the photos.
In one picture, Meghan was seen opening doors on the new calendar, which is a collaboration with Los Angeles chocolatier Compartés containing 25 "handcrafted chocolates".
However, the lighting and shadows on the hand resting on the product made it look as though she had "six fingers".

Courtiers are trying to orchestrate a truce between Prince William and Prince Harry in the hopes of getting the estranged brothers together to talk about doing a tribute to Princess Diana for the 30th anniversary of her death next year, a source tells Star.
"Harry is all for it, but William's refused," spills the source.
The siblings' relationship has been strained since Harry, 42, and Meghan Markle stepped down as senior working members of the royal family in 2020 and has only deteriorated after their 2021 tell-all interview and Harry's 2023 memoir, Spare.
Even the Sussexes' recent return to the U.K. with their two young children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, hasn't eased tensions between the brothers.
"He's acting like they don't even exist," the source reveals. "Harry is genuinely shocked that there's not even been a shred of forgiveness on William's part."

Meghan Markle is reportedly taking a strategic approach to As Ever's latest holiday launch after facing setbacks with previous products. The brand founder recently unveiled her first-ever Holiday Advent Calendar in collaboration with Compartés. Priced at $148, the festive box has reportedly generated excitement for Markle, though sources claim she is being particularly calculated with the new release.
Meghan Markle is reportedly "trying to be strategic" with the launch of As Ever's new Holiday Advent Calendar. The official As Ever page recently shared a photo of the festive box, captioning the post, "A little holiday magic is on its way. 24 days of sweet surprises, made for the joy of anticipation."
The Advent Calendar features 24 handcrafted chocolates housed in a designer box inspired by Markle's home and garden in Montecito. The holiday offering is a collaboration with Los Angeles-based chocolatier Compartes, with the chocolates incorporating flavors from As Ever's signature spreads, including strawberry, blackberry, raspberry, and orange marmalade.
Each piece also features a countdown number written in Markle's handwriting and is hand-painted with edible gold **** er. For now, the Advent Calendar is available exclusively for pre-order. A source told Star Magazine that Markle is a fan of delicious, high-quality chocolate.
However, the source noted that advent calendars often contain chocolate that is not particularly high quality. With her latest offering, Markle allegedly believes she has created something "beautiful and festive."

Meghan Markle's new promo photoshoot for her lifestyle brand, As Ever, is drawing unflattering comparisons to Kate Middleton. The **** ss of Sussex shared a series of photos and videos for her brand's latest, limited-edition Christmas Advent Calendar. It seemed normal on the surface. But eagle-eyed fans noticed an interesting detail that reminded them of the Princess of Wales.
Meghan Markle's new promo photoshoot for As Ever has fans wondering whether the Kate Middleton connection is deliberate or not (via The Royal Observer).
For those unversed, the Suits star launched a collection of photos and videos to promote her latest Christmas products. Notably, it is called the Christmas Advent Calendar and features wholesome, handmade goodies from Los Angeles chocolatier Compartes.
It is available exclusively to U.S. residents. The calendar features 24 handmade chocolates inspired by Markle's Montecito home and personal life. However, sharp-eyed fans noticed a subtle connection to the future queen. Upon zooming in on the promotional photo, several fans accused the former actress of using AI. They spotted what appeared to be six fingers on her hand.
User TribesBritannia commented, "Meghan Markle using AI for **** Never. Six fingers is a classic example of AI. She can't even be bothered to take a simple photo, are the media and GettyImages going to go mad about this, like they did about a simple Mother's Day photo?"

Travis Kelce turned his walk into the stadium into a luxury fashion moment, arriving for the Kansas City Chiefs' latest game in an outfit reportedly worth close to $100,000.
Kelce, 37, wore the look ahead of the Chiefs' game against the Las Vegas Raiders at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday, October 4, according to E! News. The NFL star wore a striped black Tom Ford set valued at nearly $7,000, along with Chelsea boots priced at close to $3,000.
His accessories pushed the total much higher: People reported that Kelce carried a $6,500 Bottega Veneta duffle bag and wore Jacques Marie Mage Leonard Aviator sunglasses worth about $1,000. The biggest expense was on his wrist: a Cartier watch valued at about $77,000.

Dana White has a lot of haters, but it was surprising to find out that his mother was one of them.
June White shocked the MMA world back in 2011 when she released an unauthorized biography on her son ****** led 'Dana White: King of MMA.' The 152 page book was full of all sorts of accusations: that White and his wife got into physical conflicts regularly, that he 'puts Tiger Woods to shame' regarding infidelity, and that he'd slept with his sister-in-law.
All unproven claims, and all a part of what White now says was part of a scheme to get money out of him to buy a bar. In a new interview with The Diary of a CEO, White addressed his mother's book in-depth for the first time.
"I was on a trip one time, I didn't have emails or any of that s–t on the road," White said. "We were in London for like two weeks and when I got back I checked my emails and I had like a bunch of emails from her threatening me: 'You have two options: you can give me this all upfront, or you can pay me in payments over the next f–king whatever. I'm looking to buy a bar or whatever it was.'"
"And then she wasn't getting responses because I was in London, and then the emails started getting nastier and nastier and nastier," White continued. "And I f–king just blew up. That was the beginning of the end with me and her."

PARIS — Receiving an invitation to the theater from Christian Louboutin during Paris Fashion Week, one can be **** ured to be in for a treat. Through his "Loubi Show" format, the shoe guru has repeatedly shown a knack for conjuring loud spectacles and enlisting a vast array of talents to collaborate with — and the latest installation staged at Théâtre du Châtelet here on Friday was no exception. The designer called on no less than Dita Von Teese to present his spring 2027 collection, centered on celebrating his iconic La Pigalle pump. Named after the famous Parisian district and first introduced in 2004, the style has become a Louboutin signature with its sleek proportions expressing the sensuality embedded in the brand. A moment of the "Eternal Youth" show starring Dita Von Teese. Benjamin Malapris/Courtesy of Christian Louboutin To match the vibe, Louboutin asked Von Teese to do what she does best: seduce the audience with wit, in a performance that drew a packed guest list headlined by Cynthia Erivo, Elizabeth Debicki and Jaden Smith, who Louboutin tapped last year to become his first men's creative director roughly 15 years after he first expanded his red-soled universe into men's.

And just like that, the Spring/Summer 2027 season is coming to a close. Paris Fashion Week has officially begun, kicking off the fourth and final calendar of shows this September. Following New York City, London, and Milan, the French capital is welcoming a flurry of industry professionals and front-row stars alike, all eager to see what's next for our favorite designers.
The schedule started off strong on Monday, with a lineup that opened with 2026 LVMH Prize winner Julie Kegels and closed with avant-garde, industry-favorite Matières Fécales. Rihanna was spotted at the latter, making a grand, fashionably-late entrance in a gold tinsel two-piece, while fellow A-listers—Jennifer Lawrence, Tate McRae, Kendall Jenner with Jacob Elordi, Katie Holmes with Jason Bard Yarmosky, Alexa Chung, and Gabbriette—settled into their hotels and toasted the week ahead at parties and dinners galore.
On Tuesday, Jonathan Anderson sat the likes of Rosalía, Jennifer Lawrence, Anya Taylor-Joy, Cynthia Erivo, Greta Lee, Eileen Gu, Mia Goth, Ejae, and Karlie Kloss front row at his presentation for Christian Dior. Maison Margiela and Saint Laurent followed suit later that evening.
On Wednesday, the Row, Balmain, Dries Van Noten, Stella McCartney, Vaquera, Acne Studios, and Tom Ford welcomed more celebrity sightings, and as the week continues, so will Chloé, Balenciaga, Schiaparelli, Loewe, Givenchy, Victoria Beckham, Vivienne Westwood, Miu Miu, Valentino, Mugler, Jean Paul Gaultier, Chanel, and more. The season will wrap on Tuesday, October 6, with Louis Vuitton.

Black may be one of the safest colors in formal fashion, but the 2026 Venice Film Festival showed how unpredictable it can become in the right hands. Across premieres and ceremonies, stars embraced lace, velvet, satin, sculptural tailoring and elaborate draping. Instead of relying on color to create impact, designers used texture and silhouette to give each outfit a distinctive personality. Laura Dern, Susan Sarandon, Amal Clooney, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Rooney Mara all approached the classic shade differently. Together, their appearances demonstrated why black continues to have such staying power on major red carpets.
Laura Dern embraced intricate detailing for the premiere of Wild Horse Nine. Her sleeveless black Dior gown featured a V neckline, delicate lace and floral embroidery across the upper section. The design transitioned into a fuller shimmering skirt, giving the monochrome look depth through contrasting textures. Black Dior pumps maintained the restrained palette, while a Cartier necklace provided a polished finishing touch.
Susan Sarandon chose a more streamlined interpretation at the premiere of The Echo Chamber. Her black Fendi dress featured long sleeves and an off the shoulder neckline, with a fluid silhouette that followed the body without requiring elaborate embellishment. Statement jewelry, sunglasses and bright red lipstick added personality, demonstrating how accessories can completely change the mood of an otherwise minimalist black dress.
For the festival's opening ceremony, Amal Clooney turned to Tom Ford. Her floor length column gown used rippled fabric panels and subtle leather detailing to create movement and texture. Pointed pumps and a coordinating clutch continued the sleek approach. The result demonstrated how carefully constructed fabric can make a single color visually interesting without overwhelming the overall silhouette.
Maggie Gyllenhaal brought archival fashion into the conversation with an Armani Privé velvet gown originally created in 2015. The design combined sharply defined shoulders, long sleeves and a plunging embellished neckline. Its return more than a decade later also highlighted the growing red carpet practice of revisiting existing fashion rather than treating older couture as something that belongs permanently in an archive.

Tom Hiddleston has a very special plus-one.
The Golden Globe-winning actor was joined on the red carpet by his fiancée, British actress Zawe Ashton, at a screening for his new film "Tenzing" Thursday, Oct. 1.
Hiddleston, donning a suede navy blue suit and multicolored tie, posed with his partner, who wore a cream two-tiered dress featuring an embroidered pattern.
Hiddleston and Ashton, who went public with their romance in 2021, have previously shared the stage, performing together at a classic literature reading in 2018, followed by back-to-back West End and Broadway revivals of the Harold Pinter play "Betrayal" in 2019.
The couple announced their engagement in 2022, the same year they welcomed their first child together. Ashton gave birth to their second child in 2025.
