NBA Star Andre Drummond Saves Baby Son From Drowning in Pool
NBA star Andre Drummond is being hailed a hero after rescuing his 2-year-old son from a potential drowning. Drummond, who just signed with the Philadelphia 76ers, was enjoying an afternoon by the pool, when suddenly, little Deon fell into the water. Without hesitation, Drummond leaped into the water with all of his clothes on. Drummond posted surveillance video from the incident on social media and called the incident "a parent's worst nightmare." Fortunately, the little boy is OK. #InsideEdition
Buakaw Por. Pramuk - A Dark Night at K-1 Max
Buakaw was one who instilled the fear of Muay Thai in the hearts of the K-1 MAX fighters. He managed to combine the beauty of technical fighting with devastating power. His knees in a clinch were so intimidating that K-1 had to change the rules because of him... 🎧 Songs: Dream Cave - Night of the Drowned Jo Wandrini - Phantasm Bobby Cole - Epic Cinematic Movie Trailer Music Edgar Hopp - When All Kingdoms Fall Dream Cave - Truce No More Hampus Naeselius - Valley of the Kings #muaythai #legend
England and Scotland players take the knee ahead of kick off
England and Scotland players take the knee ahead of kick-off Players and staff from both England and Scotland took the knee ahead of their Euro 2020 clash. While the England squad have seen the gesture booed by a minority of supporters of late, Scotland have been standing against racism before games. Having initially said they would not take the knee, the visitors relented and – despite both sets of supporters booing their rivals’ national anthems – the reaction to the anti-racism gesture was the most positive of recent games, with a cacophony of noise drowning out barely audible booing.
NEW ZELAND VS ENGLAND 1ST TEST DAY 2 LIVE MATCH | ENG VS NZ 1ST TEST LIVE COMMENTARY (NZ VS ENG)
NEW ZELAND VS ENGLAND 1ST TEST DAY 2 LIVE MATCH | ENG VS NZ 1ST TEST LIVE COMMENTARY (NZ VS ENG) There are a number of ways spectators can make their approach to Lord's this week. They can get off the Jubilee line at St John's Wood and walk down Wellington Road, past the hospital bearing the same name, and enter through the North Gates. If the weather is nice, patrons could alight the tube one stop earlier, at Baker Street, and enjoy a longer walk, past or through Regent's Park, one of London's finest, perhaps up to the East or Grace Gates. From the south, Edgware Road tube is the most convenient stop, a leisurely 20 minute walk through trendy Lisson Grove to the ground. Whichever way they come, the presence of around eight thousand spectators inside Lord's each day this week for the first Test between England and New Zealand will be a truly wonderful sight. It will be the first time England have played in front of spectators at home since the final Ashes Test in September 2019. This match is actually the first time England have played at Lord's since the second match of that series against Australia, nearly two years ago. As a result of playing every game at the bio-secure bubbles of the Ageas Bowl and Emirates Old Trafford last summer, it was the first time since 1970 that England did not play a Test at Lord's. Given the various protocols that needed to be observed, the lack of crowds and the two-venue system was a necessary evil to get cricket on and keep everyone safe. But the international cricket that took place last season was a soulless experience for all concerned. Playing without crowds was better than nothing, of course, but there was something missing, that interaction between the deeds on the field and those watching from the stands that elevates sport to a higher plane, full of energy and suspense and emotion. Think of that scene when Ben Stokes hit the winning runs in the third Ashes Test at Headingley two summers ago, the crowd behind him jumping to their feet in unbridled joy after an hour and a half cheering every single run and Australian misstep. That noise, that colour, those scenes made the occasion what it was. That is what we have missed over the past year. The contrast when James Anderson took his 600th wicket last summer at the Ageas Bowl in front of thousands of empty seats, with a few cheers from his teammates on the pavilion balcony drowned out by the silence, could not have been starker. To add to the excitement of this game, New Zealand are the visitors, the second ranked Test team in the world. They have not toured England since 2015 but these matches, added to the calendar to help the ECB recover some of their COVID-related losses, see them at the top of their game with the one of the finest fast-bowling attacks in the world and certainly the best New Zealand have ever produced. For Kane Williamson's men, the two Tests also provides perfect preparation for the World Test Championship final against India later this month. England are missing their IPL players, who have been rested from this game, and Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer, who are both injured. Nevertheless, they remain formidable opponents at home, particularly with James Anderson and Stuart Broad in their ranks. While too much has been made of Chris Silverwood's comments about using this summer to plan for the Ashes - he also said the Tests against New Zealand and India are significant series in their own right - there will be opportunity for the likes of James Bracey, Dan Lawrence and maybe Ollie Robinson to lay their credentials on the table. They will do so in an England team playing in front of spectators for the first time since the summer of 2019. The stands might only be 25% full for this game but it will feel like normality is returning, slowly but surely. Long may that road to normality continue. When: Wednesday June 2, 2021. 11:00am Local Time Squads: England Squad: Rory Burns, Dominic Sibley, Zak Crawley, Joe Root(c), Ollie Pope, Daniel Lawrence, James Bracey(w), Craig Overton, Mark Wood, Stuart Broad, James Anderson, Sam Billings, Olly Stone, Jack Leach, Ollie Robinson, Haseeb Hameed New Zealand Squad: Tom Latham, Tom Blundell, Kane Williamson(c), Ross Taylor, Henry Nicholls, BJ Watling(w), Colin de Grandhomme, Mitchell Santner, Kyle Jamieson, Tim Southee, Neil Wagner, Doug Bracewell, Will Young, Jacob Duffy, Matt Henry, Devon Conway, Ajaz Patel, Daryl Mitchell, Rachin Ravindra
Klopp salutes "unbelievable" Alisson after match-winning goal | Liverpool vs West Brom | EPL
"Unbelievable", "insane technique" and "the perfect moment" - were just some of the descriptions from Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp on the last-minute winning goal from his goalkeeper Alisson which gave the Reds a vital 2-1 win at West Bromwich Albion on 16th May. Alisson's header kept Liverpool on course for a place in next season's Champions League after it looked like they would pay for some wasteful finishing against one of the Premier League's already-relegated sides. They stay fifth in the table, but now sit just a point behind Chelsea who face third-placed Leicester City on 18th May. It was an emotional moment for the Brazilian keeper, whose father died after drowning in a lake in February. Klopp described Alisson as "a wonderful, wonderful person". 1. 01:48 - 02:10 SOUNDBITE (English): Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool manager: (on Alisson's goal) "What a goal, what a worldie. Unbelievable goal, the technique, absolutely insane. Couldn't have hit a better person, couldn't have been a better moment. Just perfect for today. We didn't have a lot of these moments in the season so I don't think we should take it for granted now just because we had it once. We have to keep going." 2. 02:13 - 02:57 SOUNDBITE (English): Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool manager: (asked if he had told Alisson to go up for the corner which led to his goal) "No, I only looked at the corner ... I don't exactly know. I saw Ali (Alisson) starting and I didn't ... My part in the goal is that I didn't shout 'stay back' and just let him run. But no. It's the last minute of the game, nobody has to ask you if you're a keeper to go in the opposite box. Then you have to win, what we obviously had to. So he went there and (laughs). What a goal! It's incredible, wow. We saw it now already ten times back in the dressing room, it's absolutely incredible. If (Chelsea striker) Olivier Giroud scores a goal like this, everybody says that's a world-class goal. When Alisson is doing it, we have to say the same." 3. 04:13 - 04:44 SOUNDBITE (English): Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool manager: (on Alisson's popularity with his team-mates) "The way that his team-mates today showed how much they like him is the best description. He's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful person and funny, smart, thoughtful, intense in moments. He's just a great guy and yeah, honestly it couldn't have been for a better person. It was such a special moment after all what he went through (death of his father). Really, really happy for him." #Liverpool #JurgenKlopp #Klopp #Alisson #EPL #PremierLeague SOURCE: Premier League Productions Visit the WeShow Football store: https://www.youtube.com/weshowfootball/store #WeShowFootball features previews, reactions and behind-the-scenes footage from Europe's elite football competitions.

INCREDIBLE Brazilian announcer goes wild after Alisson scores goal for Liverpool | LIV 2-1 WBA | EPL
One of the most sensational moments of this or any Premier League season, Alisson's glancing a header and securing Liverpool a dramatic 2-1 win on 16th May, made a Brazilian announcer go wild and deliver an emotional report of the goal, becoming one of the most popular topics at social media in the country and going viral worldwide. ESPN Brasil's Paulo Andrade reminded of the recent passing away of the goalkeeper's father José Agostinho Becker, who drowned in February after going for a swim on his property in the southern city of Lavras do Sul in Brazil. The announcer also said that the goal would have been approved by "Kenny Dalglish, Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler...by so many that have worn this holy jersey." A goalkeeper had scored for just the sixth time in Premier League history — none of the previous five had been a winner. Liverpool, against all the odds, could dream once again of the Champions League with one week left of the season. 1. 00:01 - 1:25 SOUNDBITE (Portuguese): Paulo Andrade, ESPN Brasil announcer: "We're beyond the 4 additional minutes given by the referee. The rain drops, tense moment. Here comes the corner...ALISSOOOONNN!!! ALISSSSOOOOONNNN!!! GOOOOAAAAALLL!!! ALISSON!!! IT'S FOR LIVERPOOL!!! HISTORIC, HEROIC!!! THE BRAZILIAN GOALKEEPER GOES INTO THE AREA AND SEAL THE DEAL AS A STRIKER! What a moment! What a sensational thing at The Hawthorns! Alisson, with a header!!! It's for dad, right? It's for dad, right, Alisson? Yeah, it's for dad! IT'S FOR DAD! IT'S FOR THE ENTIRE LIVERPOOL FANS!!! It's something that give goosebumps to every lover of football! Alisson put a header, mimicking Salah, mimicking the greatest strikers of the history! A goal signed by Kenny Dalglish, Ian Rush, by so many... Robbie Fowler...by so many that have worn this holy jersey! Alisson gets it done! What was that? 2 for Liverpool, 1 for West Bromwich!" #AlissonBecker #Alisson #Liverpool #EPL #Goal #Goalkeeperscores #AlissonHeader SOURCE: Pool Photo / ESPN Brasil Visit the WeShow Football store: https://www.youtube.com/weshowfootball/store #WeShowFootball features previews, reactions and behind-the-scenes footage from Europe's elite football competitions.
