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

Golf swing: How to build a one plane golf swing --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6A1x... ****************************************­***************************** Golf is a game of ecstasy and agony. So much depends on consistently mastering the tiniest detail, and repeating good form for nine or 18 holes. And it all starts with your swing. If you're slicing or hooking your ball, if you're just not getting the right yardage out of your shot, or if you've never hit a golf ball in your life, here's the skinny on how to get the best out of your golf swing. the golf swing is outwardly similar to many other motions involving swinging a tool or playing implement, such as an axe or a baseball bat; however, unlike many of these motions, the result of the swing is highly dependent on several sub-motions being properly aligned and timed, to ensure that the club travels up to the ball in line with the desired path, the clubface is in line with the swing path, and the ball impacts the center or "sweet spot" of the clubface. the ability to do this consistently, across a complete set of clubs with a wide range of shaft lengths and clubface areas, is a key skill for any golfer, and takes a significant effort to achieve. the golfer chooses a golf club, grip, and stroke appropriate to the distance: the "drive" or "full swing" is used on the teeing ground and fairway, typically with a wood or long iron, to produce the maximum distance capable with the club. In the extreme, the windup can end with the shaft of the club parallel to the ground above the player's shoulders. the "approach" or "3/4 swing" is used in medium- and long-distance situations where an exact distance and good accuracy is preferable to maximum possible distance, such as to place the ball on the green or "lay up" in front of a hazard. the windup or "backswing" of such a shot typically ends up with the shaft of the club pointing straight upwards or slightly towards the player. the "chip" or "half-swing" is

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.

Flex your legs at a 90 degree angle. Perform three sets of 15 repetitions. 3. Hip extensions. Lie on the bed so that your legs are hanging by the edge.

Red Bull Salzburg take the slight upper hand into their Europa League last-16 second-leg clash at home with Basel. the Austrian outfit settled for a 0-0 stalemate in their away leg in Switzerland and hold a perfect record at home in the Europa League this season. the draw at Basel halted Salzburg's 16-match winning streak in all competitions, although Roger Schmidt's men bounced back with a 5-0 win over Wolfsberger AC in the Austrian Bundesliga. Similarly, Basel enjoyed a 5-0 league win over Aarau to find their feet after the home stalemate. Salzburg's form at home extends beyond their five wins in the tournament this season, as they have been beaten just once at their Red Bull Arena fortress since August 2012. they have won 14 in succession at home, including European wins over Zalgiris (5-0), Elfsborg (4-0), Standard Liege (2-1), Esbjerg (3-0) and Ajax (3-1). Conversely, Basel have not won an away fixture in the Europa League in their past 10 outings in the second-tier continental competition, but they travel to Austria in the knowledge a score draw would see them progress to the quarter-finals. Murat Yakin's Basel have had success away from home in the Champions League, chalking up wins at Ludogorets and Chelsea earlier this season, before they bowed out in the group stage to join the Europa League knockout rounds. they began their journey in the last-32, dispatching of Maccabi Tel Aviv 3-0 on aggregate, as they look to at least emulate their semi-final appearance from the previous campaign. It will be a tough task against home-town favourites Salzburg, though, who have been the highest scoring side in the competition this term with 21 goals. Firing in a third of those has been tournament top-scorer Jonatan Soriano, who has recently had to refute suggestions he was Salzburg's equivalent of Lionel Messi. Salzburg's Kevin Kampl and Alan are tied for the most assists, with four apiece.

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.

RR vs SRH: "Invincibility lies in the defence; the possibility of victory in the attack" - Sun Tzu. the SunRisers Hyderabad look unbeatable at the moment. How much is a defendable score in the IPL? At least 8 per over many teams would suggest but ask the SRH bowlers about it. they'll have a cheeky grin on their faces and nonchalantly challenge the batters' egos. That's how good they've been. SRH are currently 2nd on the league table with 5 wins under their belt. RR vs SRH will be a huge test for the home side but at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Rajasthan have battered teams with fervent deftness. RR have won 3 games out of 6. Can they stop the immovable force in SRH?

RCB vs MI: "The idea of redemption is always good, even if it means sacrifice or some difficult times". After 7 games, The 3-time IPL champions and The defending champions Mumbai Indians have plenty to ponder about. They've got to win every game hereafter to stand a chance of making it to The playoffs. A positive though has to be Their impressive win against The Chennai Super Kings. Here's how The table can be summed up. CSK and SRH need only one win to confirm Their playoff participation. KXIP are currently 3rd on The table with 10 points. They need a couple of victories to make it to The final four. Now, for The fourth spot, KKR, RR, MI and RCB have to do battle. The winner of RCB vs MI will be in The race for The top 4.

THE STORY SO FAR "Attack wins you matches, defence wins you titles" - Sir Alex Ferguson. If THE mightiest of foreign bodies invade Earth to conquer it, you know THE Sunrisers will defend THE planet with THE utmost of ease. That's how good THEy've been with THE ball this IPL. Sixes and fours make a game exciting but so does sturdy defending. SRH defended 118 runs against THE colossal Mumbai Indians batting even though THEir star performer, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar was kept out due to an injury. THE Kane Williamson led side are 3rd on THE league standings and look determined to make it to THE top. SRH vs KXIP, THE battle for THE number 1 spot is on.

While I hesitate to start this way, I do want to make it known that I am a former Division 1 cross country and track runner. This is not said to pump my own ego, but to show that I have a good knowledge base when it comes to running programs. After many weeks or research, I could not find a 10k running plan that actually works. For months, I scoured the internet, read running articles, magazines, and anything else I could get my hands on, but struggled to find a complete running program 5k or 10k. there were many running for beginners programs but nothing that was as complete as I was looking for. I wanted a 10k running program that was thorough and had all the information I was looking for. Each running schedule that I found, whether it be for a 10k or 5k seemed to missing something. Initially when I came out of mini-retirement, I decided that a 5k would be my first conquest, but I really wanted to train for a 10k. there are many things to look at when deciding on a 10k running plan. Length, experience level, and the results runners have gotten are all things to look at. While I understand that a running program for beginners is different than a 10k running program for advanced individuals, I wanted to make sure I got a plan that covered all the bases. When I finally thought I found a 10k running program I liked, there was something it was missing. A friend and former teammate finally referred me to RunLovin.com. Upon entering the site, it seemed like they had thorough content, but I still wasn't sold. Since there is a lot of free information on the internet, I thought, why should I pay for it? I signed up for sample program and got my answer. they emailed me a synopsis, and some actual wording from the purchased 10k running program. I was immediately impressed with how complete their program is. Although it was a 10k running schedule, they had information about shoes, nutrition, equipment, and injury prevention to name a few. What finall

{{service.description}}He would get the win, have his redemption and walk away with his head held high. But that win has been tainted by the tapout that referee Charles Robinson did not see. Undertaker went from being the cagey veteran who wouldn't say die to being the cheap-shot artist taking the easy way out. By all rights, the Phenom has turned heel. However, this was perhaps the best way to keep their rivalry going. Now fans are getting more than just a nice feud with a cliched ending; they're getting a dramatic twist and a reason for the heat between the two to continue. the fact is that two matches would never have been enough for Undertaker and Lesnar. there was too much intensity and too much bad blood to believe one more match was not needed to wrap things up. the two men proved they can still tell a compelling story, and that story

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.

The IPL moves to The North after an enthralling weekend of cricketing action. Two teams who've been on eiTher end of The league table are all set to lock horns. Delhi Daredevils are struggling at The bottom of The table with only 2 points in 5 games, while Kings XI have been in dreamland ever since The mighty Jamaican was included in Their squad. They are placed 2nd on The table, only decimals away from The souThern kings. Two new skippers, two brilliant students of The game and 2 massive points at stake. Moreso, for Kings XI who this year are certain to make it to The playoffs. It's DD vs KXIP, match number 22 at The Feroz Shah Kotla.
