Moments after being announced as France's new coach on Tuesday, Zinedine Zidane clenched his fists and his usually measured voice trembled a little. "Im excited," he said. "The France team makes you dream. We have extraordinary players, an extraordinary team." Zidane coached Real Madrid until leaving in 2021. He replaces Didier Deschamps at the helm of a France team he led to glory as arguably its greatest ever player. "Ive waited five years for this chance, so thats why Im a bit emotional," said Zidane, adding that it was the happiest day of his career as a coach. "Ive always watched this side as a fan and also as a future coach, I wont hide it," Zidane added. "Thats why I didnt take a club side. I told myself that the only thing I wanted to do after Madrid was taking the France team." French Football Federation president Philippe Diallo announced Zidanes appointment at the FFF headquarters in Paris on Tuesday, saying he has been given a four-year contract. Diallo called the hiring of Zidane "an exceptional moment," calling Zidane "one of the legends of French soccer." The 54-year-old Zidane could have gone to another club after leaving Madrid in 2021. But there was no way he would. "I had some offers during the five years I was away to take charge of a club," he said. "I turned them all down for the France team. It was the only thing I wanted to do." Zidane called it "an immense joy" taking charge. "I have so many emotions," he said. "I am ready for the challenge." Zidane praised Deschamps, who won the 2018 World Cup and stepped down after the recent edition, where Les Bleus lost in the semifinals to Spain. "I will give everything so that this team can win," Zidane said. "I would also like to congratulate Didier [Deschamps] for these remarkable years." Diallo said he met Zidane for talks in February 2025 after Deschamps said he would stand down following the 2026 World Cup. Zidane said France would play differently to how it did under Deschamps. "What motivates me is the game. I was a No. 10. I like goals," Zidane said. "I was a leader on the field, and now I want to be a leader by experience." His first game will be away to Turkey in the Nations League on Sept. 25, followed by a match in Belgium three days later. Home fans need to wait until Oct. 2 for a glimpse of Zidane at Stade de France, when France plays Italy, 20 years after he was sent off against Italy in the 2006 World Cup final for headbutting Italy defender Marco Materazzi. "Ive noted all of the four matches to come," Zidane said, tapping his forehead. "Italy is special, because I played there, because I know people, because I speak Italian. All of those things." After the announcement, Zidane greeted a large gathering of fans outside the federation headquarters, and they cheered loudly when he arrived. From Deschamps To Zidane France lost the World Cup final on penalties in 2022 and lost the European Championship final on home soil in 2016. Some Deschamps critics, among them former France teammate Christophe Dugarry, said he should have won more with the players he had. Deschamps described "an unbreathable atmosphere" at the end of his tenure, without detailing what the tensions were. Zidane and Deschamps were different types of midfielders, but are forever linked by glory. The industrious Deschamps was Frances captain and the mercurial Zinedine was the creative force when France won the 1998 World Cup and Euro 2000. Affectionately nicknamed "Zizou," his face was beamed onto the Arc de Triomphe the night France celebrated its first World Cup triumph in 98. An inspired Zidane scored two headers in the final in a 3-0 win against Brazil at Stade de France and later that year he won the Ballon dOr. Zizous Rise Born in Marseille to Algerian parents, Zidane grew up playing in the estate of La Castellane, which has a giant mural of Zidane on one of its tower blocks. It was on the estate's concrete pitches where Zidane nurtured his incredible balance, to avoid falling on the rock-hard ground. Zidanes club career took him from Cannes to Bordeaux and then to two of the worlds biggest clubs: Italian giant Juventus and Madrid. His international career began in 1994, when he scored two stunning goals against the Czech Republic after coming on as a substitute, in front of his home fans in Bordeaux. He won league titles with Juve and Madrid and scored a brilliant volley to help Madrid win the Champions League in 2002. With Zidane carrying an injury, France flopped at the 2002 World Cup going out in the group stage but reached the 2006 final after Zidane came out of international retirement. His performance in a 1-0 victory over Brazil in the quarterfinals was Zidane at his balletic best: a hypnotic combination of drag-backs, stepovers, spins on the ball, and flicks over the shoulder. The Brazilians were in awe and even Ronaldinho a Ballon d'Or winner himself seemed captivated. His 108th and final game for France was against Italy in the final, and he scored early with a deft Panenka-style penalty for his 31st, and last, international goal. Then, with millions watching around the world, an infamous moment saw him walk back up the field and slam his forehead into Materazzis chest, sending the tall defender flying backward. Zidane trudged past the gold-tinted World Cup trophy as he left the field in Berlin, his international career over. Now he has another chance to lead Les Bleus to glory.

There is always baseball happening almost too much baseball for one person to follow themselves. Don't worry, we're here to help you by figuring out what you missed but shouldn't have. Here are all the best moments from last night in Major League Baseball: Monday was Max Scherzers 42nd birthday. It was also his return to the mound for the first time since June 10, which was itself his first start since May 24 Scherzer has spent most of 2026 on the IL recovering from various maladies, but was activated yesterday to pitch on his birthday, and against his former team, the Nationals. Nats fans still remember what Scherzer did for them in the middle of his career, winning back-to-back NL Cy Young awards and his excellent 2019, which he capped off with 30 postseason innings in six games all of which Washington won on the way to its first and only World Series championship. Scherzers career is likely nearing its end, but he has one bit of history hes still chasing. He can enter the top 10 for career strikeouts, and might very well be the last pitcher we see do so for some time with the way starters are used these days, in much shorter bursts, even high-strikeout arms might not be able to rack up the Ks the way Scherzer has in his career. He began last nights start six shy of tying Hall of Famer Walter Johnson for the 10th-most strikeouts in history: Scherzer pitched for just 2 innings, but whiffed four in that stretch, leaving him two shy of tying Johnson and three from sole possession of 10th. It would be massive were he make his push into the top 10, not just for Scherzer but for MLB. Braves ace Chris Sale is the active pitcher with the next-most strikeouts to Scherzers 3,507; hes already 37 years old and at 2,713 punch outs. Getting to 3,000 is extremely doable for Sale, who has a 2.19 ERA and 134 strikeouts in 111 innings this year, but guaranteeing hell get another 800 or so between now and when he hangs it up is impossible. Both Scherzer and Justin Verlander were still going strong late into their 30s, until they suddenly were not, and the same could happen to Sale. Next up is Gerrit Cole, at 2,317 strikeouts hes already 35, nearly 36, and is looking at another nearly 1,200 whiffs. At his strikeout rate of the last three seasons, he would need nearly that many innings to get there: Cole has 2,016 in his career to date. Kevin Gausman is even further behind and also 35, Sonny Gray is 36, deGrom is 38 and looking to get to 2,000 you get the idea. It doesnt take long before you get into "Well if Paul Skenes or Jacob Misiorowski have perfect health and no decline for the bulk of two decades, then" as you try to figure out who could be next. Thats simply a reminder of how special what Scherzer has already accomplished is, though. He has been exceptionally healthy in his career, generally speaking. He has averaged 10.6 strikeouts per nine over 19 seasons and nearly 3,000 innings. He had a nine-year stretch with a cumulative 2.82 ERA and 2,191 strikeouts thats more than Gausman, Gray and deGrom have managed in their entire careers. Just two more strikeouts, and there he is, at a milestone we might not see again for a long time or possibly ever. The Blue Jays would top the Nats, 3-2, dropping Washington one game over .500 and one game back in the NL wild-card standings, while Toronto sits five back of the last AL wild-card spot, at a disappointing 49-58. The 12-game losing streak is over for the Marlins, which is just kind of how things have been going for the Phillies of late. First baseman Bryce Harper made it 2-0 Phils with a dinger in the first inning, but Miami answered back when left fielder Heriberto Hernndez went yard in the bottom of the frame. The Marlins lineup then fill a single short of the cycle in the second: right fielder Griffin Conine homered, center fielder Jakob Marsee doubled and shortstop Otto Lopez tripled, leading to three runs and a 5-2 lead. Philadelphia rallied for four runs in the sixth, culminating in a shot through the hole in the left side of the infield by center fielder Justin Crawford to take a 6-5 lead. The Phillies would add one more in the eighth, but the Marlins had last ups, and made the best of them. Miami faced closer Jhoan Duran, who has barely pitched of late he had just 2 innings since the All-Star break ended before last night. Duran looked a little rusty, giving up a leadoff single to Marsee and another single to Lopez, before hitting first baseman Kyle Stowers with a pitch to load the bases. Hernndez then added another single to make it 7-7, then Duran allowedanother single, this time to second baseman Xavier Edwards. DH Liam Hicks grounded into a force out at home to keep the game tied, but Conine was there to make sure that Miami would get the walk-off win. Starter Zack Wheeler lasted just three innings, and that didnt seem to phase Philadelphia at first. Duran was shaky, though, and Philly paid for it with a loss. For the Marlins, the win gained them a game on four teams in front of them in the wild-card standings, one of which is the Phillies. Miami is still 53-54, however, and despite being two games behind is also trailing seven other teams for those three spots. Theres a lot of work left to be done in the 2026 season for both clubs. Orioles center fielder Colton Cowser had to leg it out to make this catch, but once he did, he also needed to get the ball back to the infield. Luckily he had right fielder Leody Taveras there to assist. Thats a heads up play by the pair, as that was the first out of the inning and there was a runner on first. Thanks to passing the ball off, he stayed at first, too. That also wasnt the only unconventional outfield assist of the night for Taveras. Here he is trying to help catch a squirrel with the grounds crew. It did not go as well as the Cowser catch. Hey, they got there eventually! Squirrel unharmed but corralled. Try some peanuts next time, stadiums are full of them. Baltimore ended up defeating the Tigers, 8-5, by the way. Which animal-based team do you think the squirrel was rooting for, anyway? The Diamondbacks and Pirates are tied for the final wild-card spot in the NL, based on their identical 55-52 records. However, tiebreakers exist, and Pittsburgh currently possesses the first one, as thats head-to-head record. The Pirates entered play up 2-1 in the season series, so winning this second and final set between the two teams would carry serious weight for the Bucs should the season come down to the wire and its this pair vying for the final postseason slot. The Pirates made things that much more difficult for Arizona in this regard, thanks to walking it off. The D-backs scored first and twice in the sixth, then the Pirates tied it up by responding once in the bottom half of the inning and then again in the eighth. The two were scoreless after that, resulting in extras, where second baseman Brandon Lowe got a chance to win it. And he took it. The bases were juiced, and first baseman Ildemaro Vargas couldnt reel in the ball hit right to him game, Pirates. If Pittsburgh wins one more game against Arizona this week, then it has that first tiebreaker settled. Of course, Arizona is just one of six teams within 4.5 games of the Pirates in the wild-card standings; we might not know the actual value of this win for another two months. But better to have the dub and not need it, you know? It took some time for the Yankees to break this one open. The White Sox scored three in the first inning off of Max Fried hes still shaking off a little rust, it seems and but then the favor was returned with a four-run fourth by New York that knocked White Sox starter Noah Schultz out of the game. While the White Sox would tie the game, DH Ben Rice would give New York the go-ahead run with a solo homer in the seventh. And New York held onto its slim lead with a great relay from left afterward: second baseman Chase Meidroth hit a ball to the wall in left, but Max Schuemann got the ball in to shortstop Anthony Volpe behind third base, and he got the ball home to catcher Ali Snchez to beat DH Colson Montgomery to the plate. The Yankees then added four more runs in the top of the eighth, capped by a home run from Snchez: his first in the majors. Snchez isnt some first-time rookie in the bigs getting his first dong: he debuted back in 2020 with the Mets, was on the Cardinals the next season, didnt come to the minors until 2024 when he was on the Marlins, spent last season with the Blue Jays and Red Sox and now finds himself in the majors again with the Yankees. It took seven seasons to get 75 big-league games and 184 trips to the plate, but Snchez got that dinger. And the Yankees got a 9-5 dub. Entering the eighth inning, the Astros were losing to the Angels, 4-1. Shortstop Jeremy Pea led off the inning with a double, though, and DH Yordan Alvarez drove him in for his AL-leading 78th RBI. Then, in the ninth, the real rally kicked off. The Astros would face new pitcher Jos Fermin, and he proceeded to hit left fielder Taylor Trammell with his second pitch. Trammell then took second on a passed ball, and catcher Christian Walker singled him to third. Center fielder Lucas Spence pushed Trammell across with a fielders choice, but an error by second baseman Vaughn Grissom meant everyone was safe 4-3, no outs, runners at the corners. Astros catcher Christian Vzquez then bunted for the first out of the inning, and the Angels put in another new pitcher, Sam Bachman. While he got Pea to ground into an out at home, Alvarez was intentionally walked to load the bases, followed by infielder Isaac Paredes being hit by a pitch to tie the game, 4-4. The Angels then lost an ABS challenge with right fielder LaMonte Wade Jr. at the plate, resulting inanother run being walked in, and then second baseman Jose Altuve pushed the fourth run of the inning across thanks to a fielding error by Bachman cant even blame the rest of the defense for that one. Just an ugly, ugly inning for the Angels, full of walks and hit batsmen and errors, and it resulted in the Astros staging a comeback to win. Houston finds itself just 1.5 behind a wild-card spot in the AL despite a sub-.500 record it will take any win, no matter how ugly. Red Sox center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela picked a good time for his first career grand slam: it was a game that Boston won by the score of 4-2 against the Athletics. The Sox were down 1-0 entering the sixth, but catcher Connor Wong doubled to open the inning against starter Jack Perkins, and then first baseman Willson Contreras drew a two-out walk. Perkins exited, replaced by reliever Jos Suarez, who promptly walked his first batter, Wilyer Abreu. With the bases loaded, Rafaela stepped up and saw an 82.2 mph slider inside on the third pitch of the at-bat: he sent it back 382 feet over the wall, to give Boston all the runs it would need. The Sox are now 55-50, two games up on the Guardians and in possession of the second wild-card in the AL. The As, well the Angels also losing means the Athletics didnt fall any further toward the ALs worst record. The Mets had a big win against the Dodgers to close out their weekend series on Sunday, and on Monday kept that energy going against the Braves. Atlanta has lost to the Mets five times in eight meetings this year, the most losses it has suffered against any team. Yes, the Braves play the Mets regularly since they are both in the NL East, but also the Mets are 45-62, just three games up on the Rockies for the NLs worst record. So, its still a real Go Figure situation for Atlanta, which is tied for the third-most wins in the league this year. The star of the show for New York was shortstop Francisco Lindor. He went 3-for-5 with a game-leading six RBIs, courtesy of an RBI triple in the first inning, followed by a two-run jack in the third and then a 396-foot blast, nearly 105 mph off the bat, in the eighth to put the Mets up 14-3. That ended up being the final score, with most of the damage coming late: while starter Martn Perez allowed just three runs in five innings of work, reliever Connor Thomas allowed two in the sixth, four in the seventh and five in the eighth the Braves just left him out there for all but one of the remaining outs. In just 11 innings in the majors, the lefty Thomas has allowed 27 unearned runs for an ERA of 20.83. That is rough for everyone involved.

Florida State basketball's preseason slate is beginning to take shape, with head coach Luke Loucks heading into his second season. The Seminoles will host the LSU Tigers in an exhibition game on Oct. 24 at the Donald L. Tucker Center, adding another high-profile tune-up before the start of the 2026-27 regular season. The matchup became public as LSU released its complete schedule on Tuesday, which includes an exhibition trip to Tallahassee under the NCAA's expanded preseason format.The exhibition gives Florida State another opportunity to face high-level competition before the games begin to count. The Seminoles are already scheduled to meet the Auburn Tigers in the Ballin in Boutwell preseason showcase on Oct. 14 in Birmingham, Alabama, making LSU the second SEC opponent on Luke Loucks' preseason slate.The addition of LSU is particularly notable as programs continue taking advantage of the NCAA rule allowing Division I schools to play up to three preseason exhibitions against fellow Division I opponents. Rather than facing lower-division competition, teams are increasingly scheduling power-conference opponents to better prepare for the regular season.Florida State is scheduled to begin the regular season on Nov. 2 against Florida A&M in the Orion180 Tip-Off Classic in Tampa. By then, the Seminoles will have already faced Auburn and LSU in what projects to be one of the more challenging preseason schedules in the country.Follow us@FSUWireon X and like our page onFacebookto follow ongoing coverage ofFlorida Statenews, notes, and opinions.This article originally appeared on FSU Wire: Florida State adds another SEC exhibition to preseason slate

Mets 'most likely' trade deadline prediction would result in a fire sale originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.The New York Mets are having a nightmare 2026 season, as many of their best players have gotten hurt, with Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor, along with Francisco Alvarez, Luis Robert Jr., and Jorge Polanco, all missing significant time.While Nolan McLean has been good this season, overall, the Mets are a disaster. Now, the Mets are likely to be trade deadline sellers. The only question left is how far the Mets go.Jim Bowden of The Athletic is predicting that the Mets are MLB's "most likely" team to conduct a fire sale this summer and tear this team down to the studs.Mets predicted to conduct fire sale at MLB trade deadline"I will go with the New York Mets as the team most likely to do the most selling at the trade deadline," Bowden writes.This prediction from Bowden should not come as a massive surprise. The 45-62 Mets have one of the worst records in baseball, ahead of just the Colorado Rockies, Athletics, and Los Angeles Angels in all of MLB.But, unlike those teams, the Mets actually have a lot of intriguing trade targets this summer who could actually be traded. The Rockies, A's, and Angels might not be as big of sellers this summer, as the bulk of their valuable assets are controllable starters.MORE:Mets desperate to trade Luis Robert Jr. after trade failureThe Mets, on the other hand, have a lot of players, controllable or not, that could garner significant interest this summer.Francisco Alvarez, Luis Torrens, Mark Vientos, Brett Baty, Jorge Polanco, Marcus Semien, Bo Bichette, Tyrone Taylor, Jared Young, Luis Robert Jr., and maybe even Francisco Lindor could all be feasible trade options for teams this summer.In the pitching staff, Freddy Peralta, Clay Holmes, Sean Manaea, Devin Williams, Luke Weaver, A.J. Minter, Brooks Raley, Huascar Brazoban, and Kodai Senga are all potential trade options for the Mets.It would not be a surprise at all if the Mets wound up trading away double-digit players this year at the deadline, as David Stearns and company surely will listen to just about everyone other than Soto, A.J. Ewing, Carson Benge, and McLean.More MLB news:Yankees are leading candidate to trade for Twins Ryan JeffersRed Sox would love to trade for Angels Zach Neto or Astros Jeremy PenaGiants willing to trade Heliot Ramos in big news for many MLB clubsPadres likely not to trade Mason Miller amid latest updateTigers expected to trade Tarik Skubal but still try to contend without him

Olli Hoare competing for Australia during the 2024 Paris Olympics [Getty Images]An Australian athlete passed a murder scene while on a Commonwealth Games training run in Glasgow.Olli Hoare witnessed the aftermath of a fatal knife attack, which happened in Burgher Street, in the east end of the city, about 15:00 on Friday.Police Scotland said Paul McMinigal, 44, was discovered in a close and pronounced dead at the scene.The Sydney Morning Herald has reported that Australian athletes have since been asked to train in small groups and not to run in the nation's distinctive green and yellow team uniform.However BBC Scotland News has been told this advice is standard protocol at championships and not a Glasgow-specific request.Despite the scare, it is understood the runaway medal table leaders have no safety concerns.Paul McMinigal, 44, was pronounced dead at the scene of the incident [Police Scotland]A Team Australia spokesman said: "We are working closing with Glasgow 2026 to ensure the safety of our athletes, coaches and officials, as well as their family and friends, at the Games.""Our regular Games security briefings are keeping us comprehensively informed on potential risks across the city, and we're sharing applicable information with Team Members to ensure their awareness and safety."Officials spoke to Hoare to check on his wellbeing and said there were no ongoing issues.The middle-distance runner will line up in the mile event at Scotstoun Stadium on Saturday against a trio of Scottish medal hopes.New world record holder Josh Kerr will start as favourite for gold but he will face competition from former 1500m world champion Jake Wightman and Neil Gourley, who has world and European indoor 1500m medals to his name.Australian track sensation Cameron Myers - who ran the fastest 1500m by an under-21, in July - will also compete in the event.Murder investigation launched after man dies in close

[Getty Images]Aziz Abdul never met his grandfather. He was a military dictator and died in exile when little Aziz was a toddler. His name was Idi Amin.Globally, he had another name. The Butcher of Uganda. Amin took charge of his homeland in a coup in 1971 - becoming the country's third president - and ran a brutal regime for eight years. It's estimated half a million people were killed and the country's entire Asian population were expelled.He married six times and fathered around 60 children. Or, rather, that's how many he acknowledged. Somewhere among all that, belongs Abdul. This week, the 25-year-old is one of around 3,000 athletes in Glasgow. Just another face in a tracksuit, here for the Commonwealth Games. But not many others have the lineage that the super-heavyweight boxer does.Abdul fights England's Damar Thomas in the quarter-finals of the 90+kg category on Wednesday, knowing victory will guarantee at least bronze and make him Uganda's first Commonwealth boxing medallist since Auckland in 1990.That it could come in Glasgow is particularly pertinent. The despotic Amin harboured a fascination with Scotland after serving in the King's African Rifles in his 20s. At the height of regime, he was fond of wearing a kilt and playing the bagpipes - and even declared himself "King of Scotland" in 1976. Some years later, those predilections even spawned an Oscar-winning film, The Last King Of Scotland, starring Forest Whitaker and James McAvoy.So what would it mean to Abdul - who goes by the nickname Ringo - to win gold in Glasgow? "In everything we do, God knows tomorrow," he told BBC Sport Scotland. "It's God's plan. I might be the new King of Scotland. It's possible."When I arrived, I put up the flag, 'cause I like Scotland so much."'I want my country to recognise me'Amin was an accomplished fighter himself, holding the Ugandan light-heavyweight title for nine years from 1951. Even that was not without controversy, though.Having been beaten in one fight during that time, he reportedly decreed a rematch after taking power, and delivered a staged knockout while wearing his a suit and tie.In a previous interview, Abdul said he was "inspired" by Amin, although it was not entirely clear whether was was talking about his boxing feats or not.He refused to answer when asked if he was proud to be the dictator's grandson, but he did address the question of how he feels when he is linked to someone with such a sinister reputation."Sometimes people say positive about him, but others say negative about him," he explained. "That's why I don't want to talk more about him. "It's not good to say something negative about someone who is not there, and it's not good to say something about someone negative who was not there by the time when the incident happened, if it happened."Idi Amin: The buffoon tyrantThe Fall of Idi AminIdi Amin Part 1: The Butcher of UgandaAs well as those killed under Amin's rule, many more were imprisoned and tortured. Human rights groups and the Ugandan government both expressed disappointment that he never faced trial for his alleged crimes before dying in Saudi Arabia in 2003.All this happened long before Abdul was born, clearly. His life in Kampala has been an ordinary one but now he has the chance to make a positive contribution to the reputation of Uganda. He wants the gold chain he wears around his neck to be replaced with a gold medal this week. He believe his "Ringo punch" will be too much for his rivals."Our first medal will be won tomorrow. No excuse," he says. "That's why I'm here. I have that dream that I'm gonna go back with gold medal. That's the reason I'm here in Glasgow right now."I want to do something for my country. I think the day is tomorrow for them to recognise me and for the world to recognise me. I want to be known as the Ringo the boxer."

Kompany left impressed by 16-year-old Bayern gem Bastian AssomoBastian Assomo has reportedly impressed Bayern Munich head coach Vincent Kompany, according to a Sport BILD article.The German with Cameroonian backgrounds talent made a strong impression right from his first pre-season training session.Kompany has been paying close attention to him, offering him advice on his positioning and even joining a session defending against him.Assomo, standing at 1.90 meter tall, has considerable strengths in his finishing and agility despite his powerful build.The 16-year old is currently focusing on refining his technique and is mainly planned for Bayern's U-23 side this coming season.Having trained several times with the first team and impressing Kompany, it's conceivable he could get more chances under the Belgian.
