President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukraine needs to strengthen its air defences to protect people after its air defence units shot down 50 of 73 Russian drones launched overnight over many regions. "An air alert has been sounded almost daily across Ukraine this week,"Zelenskyy said on Telegram on Sunday. Over the past week Russia used more than 800 guided aerial bombs , about 460 attack drones, and more than 20 missiles of various types, Zelenskyy said. "Ukraine is not a testing ground for weapons. Ukraine is a sovereign and independent state. But Russia still continues its efforts to kill our people, spread fear and panic, and weaken us," he said. The Ukrainian military said earlier on Sunday that air defence units had destroyed more than 10 Russian drones that were targeting Kyiv in an overnight attack.

La Salle defeats Stetson 92-77
High on the back of a very important win last weekend, Angers welcome in-form Lyon to the Stade Raymond-Kopa in Ligue 1 on Saturday night. Lyon extended their fine unbeaten run domestically to eight matches with an emphatic victory over Nice, moving them closer to the top four ahead of this weekend's action. © Imago An impressive 4-1 win over fellow European-chasers Nice saw Lyon move above them into fifth last time out. Alexandre Lacazette netted a hat trick for Pierre Sage 's side, who are now just one point behind Lille in fourth, after they dropped points against bottom-of-the-table Montpellier. Now eight games unbeaten in Ligue 1, this is Lyon's longest streak without defeat since late 2020, when they went on a run of 16 league games undefeated, and if they can get anywhere near replicating that, they will be battling for the automatic Champions League places in the spring. Despite all of the off-field troubles hanging over the club, with a possible demotion to Ligue 2 on the cards if they cannot clear their debts by the end of the season, Sage has done an incredible job at keeping the mood positive in the dressing room. So much so, this is Lyon's best start to a season since the 2020-21 campaign, and they will hope to build on that before their unbeaten run will seriously be put to test away to Paris Saint-Germain next weekend. Lyon have lost just once away to Angers since 1993, and only twice in their last 26 matches against newly-promoted opposition have they tasted defeat. Angers have faced Lyon more times than any other club in their Ligue 1 history, and unsurprisingly, they are also the club against whom they have suffered the most defeats - 30 in 61. More recent results give even less for the home support to be enthused about, considering they have lost 11 of their last 14 meetings with their upcoming opponents - winning only once. © IconSport However, confidence will be high after they returned to winning ways last weekend thanks to a 1-0 win over fellow strugglers Le Havre. Himad Abdelli scored the solitary goal to ensure Angers recorded a third win in five games, after failing to win any of their first eight on their return to the top flight. Three wins already is just one shy of the amount Le SCO managed when they were relegated with just 18 points in the 2022-23 season, suggesting this campaign will not be as painful as that one. The win took them above Le Havre and out of the relegation zone, but even though they have only conceded 21 goals in 13 games so far this, defensive stability remains a concern. Angers have kept one clean sheet in 15 home games in 2024 - against Dunkerque in Ligue 2 in May - despite ending 2023 with eight successive games without conceding, and they may need to record a first since promotion if they are to claim another win here. © IconSport Hosts Angers are set to be without Cedric Hountondji (thigh), Zinedine Ferhat (muscle) and Sidiki Cherif (thigh) for this one, while youngster Justin-Noel Kalumba remains out with a broken ankle. Midfielder Jean-Eudes Aholou has played a big role in some of their finer moments during this campaign, scoring in two of their three wins so far, and he also netted against upcoming opponents Lyon in a Strasbourg shirt last season. With no senior injuries of note, Sage should have a full Lyon side at his disposal for this one, and the manager has rotated often this season, especially further forward. Malick Fofana is arguably their most exciting talent at present, and all six of his goals this season have come away from home, but that does not mean he is exempt from potential rotation, especially with a game in Europe coming up. Hat trick-hero Lacazette could also sit this one out if Sage plans to use him from the start against Eintracht Frankfurt, despite his heroics last weekend. Angers possible starting lineup: Y Fofana; Arcus, Bamba, Lefort, Hanin; Aholou, Belkebla, Abdelli; Allevinah, Dieng, El Melali Lyon possible starting lineup: Lucas Perri; Clinton Mata, Caleta-Car, Niakhate, Tagliafico; Veretout, Matic, Tolisso; M Fofana, Mikautadze, Cherki Even though Angers have lost just three of their last 10 games, and beat Monaco on the road recently, their record against Lyon provides little to be excited about, especially given the current form of the visitors. Lyon are in the midst of their best run for four years, and even with some rotation, they will expect to get the job done against an Angers side who look likely to be fighting relegation this season.

Floundering Rangers try to end frustrations on visit to Panthers
There are some things you just don’t do in certain parts of the US. You don’t use inferior salsa during a cattle drive in Texas. You don’t eat pizza with a knife and fork in New York City. You don’t yell “Belichick is a big, fat cheater!” in a crowded Boston bar (even if it happens to be true). And if you’re in New Jersey or just America in general, you NEVER take the holy name of Bruce Springsteen in vain in ANY manner. So it’s bewildering why one New Jersey representative would even think about faking his listening habits when it comes to The Boss. 9to5Mac spotted a curious looking post on X from US Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ). The congressman shared what appeared to be his Spotify Wrapped playlist for the year, with one list consisting of Springsteen’s classic tracks like “Glory Days” and “Thunder Road” and the other filled with tracks from various hip hop stars. He tried to cement his esteem for Springsteen in his post by saying his “first ever concert was at Meadowlands to see The Boss!” Well, it didn’t take long for the internet and anyone who’s ever used Spotify to figure out that he faked the whole list just to kiss up to his constituents. Gottheimer’s list included such glaring mistakes as inconsistent font sizes, improper spacing between the albums on his lists and the fact that both lists were titled “Your top songs” even though one only had Springsteen albums. He didn’t even use the same font type or size for all of his track and album entries. So how did Gottheimer handle this musical faux pas with the press? He dug in his heels on his Springsteen tracks and blamed his two kids for the rest. He admitted to NJ Advance Media that he made a fake Spotify Wrapped list but says the tracks on each list are accurate because he shares an account with his children because that’s easier than going back in time and setting up a family plan. “This would be my Spotify Wrapped if I didn’t share my account with my 12 and 15-year old kids,” Gottheimer told the outlet. “While it’s Springsteen all day for me — don’t get me wrong, I still love listening to Taylor Swift!” Gottheimer has since taken the post down and replaced it with a list of his most listened to Springsteen tracks . He’s trying to save face because he’s in a heated race for governor and if you want a solid shot at moving into New Jersey’s governor mansion, then you need to make your love for The Boss known far and wide across the Garden State. If Gottheimer is also going for the “Dad who makes his kids cringe at their music choices” vote, then he’s a lock.
