Michy Batshuayi scored deep into added time as  Chelsea came from behind to secure a valuable  Champions League  win against  Atletico Madrid . Despite dominating the Group C clash in the Spanish capital, Chelsea found themselves behind when David Luiz gave away a first-half penalty which Antoine Griezmann converted. Morata restored parity on the hour mark, though, when he headed home Eden Hazard's cross to equalise before Batshuayi converted from close range with the last kick of the game. Ahead of the match, Atleti manager Diego Simeone had described playing in the club's new Wanda Metropolitano stadium as like being in a Roman amphitheatre. Indeed, Los Rojiblancos had won both their league matches in their new arena ahead of hosting Chelsea, and the home fans certainly created an intimidating atmosphere as Atletico started the Group C clash brightly. But Hazard - making just his second start of the season - showed just how much Chelsea have missed him, e...

White House chief of staff John Kelly was not pleased with the fight that erupted over the weekend between President Donald Trump and National Football League players who protest by kneeling during the national anthem, two administration officials told CNN. Trump has been on a three-day crusade  since he first commented on the protests at a rally in Alabama Friday , when he said that coaches should get the "son of a bitch" off the field if the player continued to kneel. His chief of staff, a lifelong Marine who was brought in to introduce order into the West Wing, is attuned to race issues and voiced his concern about the matter, one official said. In a brief interview Monday evening, Kelly told CNN he is "appalled" by what he sees as a lack of respect for the flag and national anthem. "I believe every American, when the national anthem is played, should cover their hearts and think about all the men and women who have been maimed and killed," Kelly sai...

Ghanaian actor, Chris Attoh and Damilola Adegbite were once Nollywood sweethearts whom a lot of people envied their relationship. Some months ago, news broke out that the couple were separated but Chris tried to debunk it, when he went on IG to celebrate their marriage anniversary, so bloggers calmed down! Fast forward now, in a chat with BellaNaija, Chris has now confirmed they are no longer together.  He said; Quote "I believe throughout our marriage, It has probably been one of the most challenging things we have ever done, however, the key word is balance. At times when we both had to work, our parents would be there to hold the fort. God bless family because they were and still are very supportive. However, since the divorce, we are obviously now reworking things to create a new balance between work, spending time with and raising our son. Dami is a wonderful woman and an amazing mother. Despite our differences, she and I will always be friends. So more than anything, we...

Popular Nigerian music sensation Psquare have finally broken up after months of speculation between Peter and Paul Okoye.

Ghana has won this year’s West African Football Union (WAFU) Cup. The hosts defeated bitter rivals Nigeria with 4-1 on Sunday at the Cape Coast Stadium. The Black Stars took the lead in the 44th minute of play, with Sarfo Kwadwo punishing slack defending from the Super Eagles to make it 1-0. Vincent Atingah doubled their lead from the penalty spot. Another spot-kick was awarded to Ghana and Stephen Sarfo converted it to make it 3-0. Atingah was sent off late in the game, but it did nothing to change the final outcome, as the Ghanaians added one more goal in injury time. A stunning free-kick from Rabiu Ali was merely a consolation for Salisu Yusuf’s men. Nigeria had defeated the Black Stars 2-0, when they met during the group stages of the tournament.

Chelsea  continued to show there is life after Diego Costa with another  Premier League victory at  Stoke , with  Alvaro Morata  scoring a hat-trick in a 4-0 win. Morata, the club-record signing bought to replace Costa, was on the scoresheet again early on before Pedro extended the lead on the half-hour mark. Both goals came from defensive mistakes by Stoke, whose manager Mark Hughes had demanded a response from his players following the disappointing midweek defeat at Bristol City in the Carabao Cup. He did not get it, with Morata rounding off the win in the final quarter-hour. The game was just over a minute old when Cesar Azpilicueta's long ball forward dissected Stoke's makeshift back line and allowed the lethal Morata to take a touch and finish calmly past Jack Butland. With Kurt Zouma, on loan from Chelsea, ineligible against his parent club and Ryan Shawcross, Geoff Cameron and Kevin Wimmer all out injured, Glen Johnson, making his first Premier Leag...

Chelsea have agreed terms with Atletico Madrid for the transfer of striker Diego Costa back to the Spanish club. The move, which will be completed in January, is subject to the agreement of personal terms and a medical. Atletico said the 28-year-old, who left the club to join Chelsea in 2014, would have a medical in the next few days. Spain international Costa has not played for the Blues this season, and spent much of August in his native Brazil. He cannot be registered as a player for the La Liga outfit until January, when the club's  transfer window ban comes to an end.  The two teams play each other next Wednesday in the Champions League. Brazil-born Costa joined Chelsea from Atletico for a reported £32m three years ago. He scored 58 goals in 120 appearances for the Blues, including 20 in the Premier League last season as Chelsea won the title. Costa has not appeared for the London club this campaign and spent much of August in his native Brazil.  He was...
