Relatives of drowned Syrian boy reach Canada
The tearful gathering at the Vancouver International Airport didn’t include Alan’s father Abdullah, who’s Tima’s brother. The Kurdi family had fled from their hometown of Kobane in Syria, and were trying to leave Turkey to go to Canada.

Nathan Ake, the Dutch Under-21 global on loan from Chelsea, scored in only the third minute after a howler from Hungarian goalkeeper Adam Bogdan, who was deputising for the injured Simon Mignolet.


Badgers get a break before Holiday Bowl
With a highly anticipated slate of New Year’s Six bowl games nearing closer, there are many other games still worth watching. With 1,389 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns, Smith-Schuster and his quarterback Cody Kessler are never out of a game.

The 28-year-old suggests Ake had committed a foul in dislodging the ball from his clutches – an assertion backed by Reds manager Jurgen Klopp – but still conceded he should have dealt with the danger.


NFL’s playoff races nearly all come down to Week 17
Andy Lyons/GettyWith just one week remaining in the regular season, the playoff picture is starting to come into focus. If the Seahawks lose to the Cardinals, then this spot will go to the loser of the game between the Vikings and Packers.

He posted a photo with his daughter enjoying some Christmas drinks with the message: ‘My and lovely daughter having a couple of Christmas shots, which is 2 more than Liverpool had yesterday’.

“Then a very easy second goal, I am not sure if he [Troy Deeney] played a pass or if he did well, but we have to defend this better, an open ball, we lost the fight for this open ball twice and they make the easy goal”.

“I admire these players because we create a plan, then they supersede the expectation I create before the match”. “In terms of positions where we need to buy, you could go right through the spine of the team – centre-half, centre-midfield, striker”.

“We took three points, we’ve got a lot of confidence playing at our place and we have no fear against anyone”.

After the game, Klopp said that the defeat was “the most disappointing moment in his Liverpool life”, and that the team “lost their minds”.

Liverpool have won just three of their nine league games under Klopp and will be hosting leaders Leicester City on Boxing Day.

Strikers Divock Origi and Christian Benteke were forced to watch on from the bench, though neither man could alter the outcome when pitched into action.

They are now seventh, four points clear of Liverpool and only one adrift of the top four. “It’s a big part of the game and we have to improve drastically at both ends”.

“I just try to play my game and do it when it’s possible”.

“We are a motivated team and I’m happy we got the win and I’m happy to get the goals but it was really a good team performance”.
