  PSG vs Manchester City : Game Review A Tale of Two Halves The first leg of the UCL semi final tie between   Paris Saint-Germain  and Manchester City FC was a thrilling game, a game that's worth staying up till 4 AM in the morning to write about. A game with individual brilliance, beautiful passes, trick and flicks, mistakes, blunders, red cards, comebacks, drama and more. Everything you could ask for in a UCL semi final tie as massive as this one. City started out strong, but quickly faded. PSG are a team that often presses hard to try and engage opponents and build from the back, yet in this game they were surprisingly content with City having the ball.

 Jones vs Ngannou: The Superfight The 3 important points of concern for Jon Jones. 28th March, 2021. A day that Francis Ngannou, a poor kid from Cameroon who had to cross an ocean for a chance at a better life, to chase his dream, will never forget. He defeated the heavyweight GOAT Stipe Miocic in their rematch to earn his status as "Baddest Man On The Planet". Francis made his dream come true. He had a chance to do it much earlier and yet, failed against Stipe himself. That defeat or the loss in his next fight vs Lewis didn't deter Ngannou. He didn't come this far to stop after such a loss.  He picked himself up, trained hard and honed his skills in the craft and has successfully vanquished a worthy foe in Miocic.
