Rayo Vallecano are finally in a position to dream of La Liga survival. Photograph: Javier Etxezarreta/EPA In the middle of Rayo Vallecano's dark days, when they'd been beaten 15 times in 20 games and the goals were flying in; when they'd let in five from Atlético Madrid, five from Málaga, five from Villarreal, four from Espanyol, four from Sevilla, four from Barcelona, three from Madrid, three from Osasuna, and three from Valladolid; when they plummeted to 19th and stayed there for 11 long weeks; when the only reason they didn't fall further was that Betis were even worse; when even a glimmer of hope, a 4-1 win over Málaga, immediately gave way to a six-goal hammering; and when relegation wasn't an "if" but a "when"; there was a phrase that got repeated over and over: Paco Jémez will die with his ideas. Paco Jémez, though, had other ideas. Not because Rayo's coach was going to back down on his principles - "any club that signs me knows what it's getting," he insisted - but because he didn't have any intention of dying at all. Even when Rayo were a disaster, Jémez had his defenders. Off the pitch, that is. Last season, only two teams in Europe had the ball more than Rayo did: Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Early this season, when Rayo played Barcelona, they had more possession than them, the first team to manage it in 316 games. They threw men into attack, they were fun to watch, and parading the touchline in a dizzying array of multicoloured elbow patches and waistcoats, pink shirts and purple ties, Jémez urged them forward, always. In a country that values the aesthetic, or in which some do, he was eulogised for the way his teams played de tú a tú: as equals. Rayo didn't simply defend - sometimes they didn't defend at all - but instead they went for it. And, mostly, they lost. Rayo took the ball off Barcelona and Jémez declared himself "very proud". But they were beaten 4-0. They went to the Camp Nou where they were praised by Barcelona's

CSK vs DD: "Consistency isn't rocket science, it's responsibility". Chennai Super Kings like always have been consistent in this year's IPL as well. They're currently 2nd on the league table. A loss to Mumbai Indians in their previous game proved yet again that in the IPL, uncertainty is the norm. They take on DD in the 30th game of the IPL and this for the top spot on the league table. DD, on the other hand, after a resounding victory against the Kolkata Knight Riders will walk into this game with higher confidence and a hope that their last match display wasn't a chance or a coincidence. Shreyas Iyer played an absolute cracker of an innings in his first game as a skipper. Iyer's leadership also was mighty impressive, but he'll not let complacency settle in. The Mumbai lad will want to put his head down, take one game at a time and hope that all his captaincy decisions work in DD's favour. CSK vs DD, a crucial game for DD for an ascent up the table and for CSK a chance to get one step closer to yet another playoff qualification.

AFC Leopards have been fined Sh500,000 after the club fans caused the abandonment of their Kenyan Premier League game against Thika United a fortnight ago. The KPL Leagues and Competitions Committee also awarded two goals and three points to Thika United for the match that was abandoned in the 83rd minute. Thika were leading by a solitary goal by the time of abandonment. (READ: Fans disrupt AFC, Thika United league match) According to KPL Chief Executive Officer Jack Oguda, the committee found Leopards guilty of causing the abandonment of the game after their fans invaded the pitch before the end of the match. Referee Nassur Doka tried to restore normalcy but when it became clear it was becoming a security risk, he decided to call off the game. The chaotic Leopards fans engaged the police in running battles in and out of the Nyayo Stadium causing damage to private and public property. "The verdict is out and Leopards will have to pay Sh500,000 and forfeit the match. Thika United have been awarded the three points and a 2-0 win margin," said Oguda. The decision means Leopards remain 12th on the 16-team KPL log with 14 points from 13 matches after the league body opted not to dock the 13-time Kenyan champions points. Last week, Leopards Secretary General George Aladwa demanded that KPL awards the club three points claiming that Thika United, being the home team, failed to ensure there was enough security during the game. "Thika United were the home team, they should have provided enough security. Their players also refused to return to the field of play even after calm had been restored," said Aladwa. "We therefore demand that AFC Leopards be awarded the three points," he added.

What happens when the 3-time champions take on what is probably the best bowling attack in the league? Well, a cracker of a game is assured. Mumbai Indians have this uncanny knack of starting slow and then kicking it off as the season progresses. They lost the first game to Bravo's brilliance and at Hyderabad, they'll have their work cut out. Hyderabad, on the other hand, produced a master class in their season opener. RR were outplayed in every department as the SRH drew a positive two off that game. So, it's Kane vs the Hitman. Sound's like a WrestleMania battle and probably is one battle of significant magnitude. For game 7 of the IPL, it's SRH vs MI.

There are a few pool game rules that many of us are not aware of and a person faces no objection for breaking these unobserved and unheard rules. Knowing these rules can change the game, to know more read our blog on top seven pool game rules most players aren't aware of.

A player can feel it during a game when they hit a match-winning goal or when they miss a wide open net. A team can feel it when they come back from a deficit late in the game or when their lead in the league vanishes. A fan can feel it as their team "catches fire" or goes "as cold as ice". And, play-by-play announcers love to talk about it. We know it as the "Big Mo", the "Hot Hand", and being "In The Zone" while the psychologists call it Psychological Momentum. But, does it really exist? Is it just a temporary shift in confidence and mood or does it actually change the outcome of a game or a season? As expected, there are lots of opinions available.

COD's new battle royale game, Blackout, is still in its beta mode. However, it has already caught the gaming world in a storm. With the new foray of established game franchises like Call of Duty into the battle royale mode, established titles like Fortnite and PUBG are facing stiff competition.

"When the going gets tough, the tough get going". Delhi after 8 games in the IPL have registered only 2 wins and are at the bottom of the table. DD find themselves in a flimsy state where one defeat can eliminate them. They now need to win at least 5 games of the remaining six, more convenient would be six wins in six. But considering their form, winning every game hereafter is an impossible task. However, they've got to hold their chin up, trust their players and do the basics right. DD vs RR will be an intense bout also because it's that part of the tournament where run-rates also will hold significance.

The bottom-placed Delhi take on the 4th placed KKR in the 26th fixture of the Indian Premier League. Gautam Gambhir has stepped down as Delhi's captain and the responsibility has been handed over to Shreyas Iyer. The left-hander hasn't had the best of starts to this season's IPL. A clear head, without the burden of captaincy, might fetch better results for Gambhir. New ideas, fresher approach and a stern learning. Iyer's maturity as a player will be tested. While it's a positive move, DD would like to win games and make it to the playoffs. The chances are slim but this is the IPL, where uncertainty is the norm. Delhi have managed only 2 points in 6 games and for a place in the top 4, they have to get their game plans spot on. DD vs KKR, it's redemption time for Delhi Daredevils.

The RR vs MI game is a bottom half battle of the blues as Mumbai Indians travel to the Sawai Man Singh Stadium to take on Rajasthan Royals. Mumbai sit in 7th place with just 1 win from 4 games. However, it will be the Royals who will be more worried after losing their last two matches by big margins - 64 runs and 7 wickets. Mumbai, on the other hand, have the momentum having beaten RCB in their last encounter after losing 3 close games at the start of the tournament.

The last time Mumbai Indians lost their first three IPL games, they went on to win the league. However, this year the 3-time champions have had a bizarre run. They've lost 4 games out of 5 but, strangely enough, have a positive net run-rate. The men in blue are currently placed 7th as they take on SRH in the 23rd game of the Indian Premier League. SRH started off fluently but a hiccup seems to have distorted their path. They're now placed 4th on the league table. A win here will move them up one place or two based on the margin of victory. Can Mumbai do the unthinkable yet again or will Hyderabad pounce on Mumbai's finishing frailties? Here's our overview of MI vs SRH.
