The flag flew low due to a tragic mass shooting in B.C. on February 10 that killed at least eight. Skeptics joked about coincidences while fans embraced the rivalry fun.

Balde couldn't handle Atlético's quick breaks from Giuliano Simeone and Marcos Llorente, while Koundé struggled against Saúl Ñíguez and Antoine Griezmann's counters—issues echoed in a prior game against Mallorca. Both have played heavy minutes this season, with Balde over 1,800 in La Liga and Koundé nearing 2,000 across competitions, contributing to their dip in form. João Cancelo, back on loan from Al Hilal, offers versatility on either flank with just 101 La Liga minutes so far; the staff sees him as key rotation amid fatigue, especially with Girona up next on February 16 and the Copa return leg on March 3. Barça lead La Liga by one point, but the vulnerabilities highlight John Terry's point that defense wins titles.

Key Takeaway

Alejandro Balde and Jules Koundé faltered badly in Barcelona's 4-0 Copa del Rey loss to Atlético Madrid, leaving the coaching staff searching for answers on the flanks.

Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, known as El Mencho and leader of the violent Jalisco New Generation Cartel, died during a Sunday raid backed by U.S. intelligence, alongside three other gunmen, as troops seized rocket launchers and armored vehicles.

President Claudia Sheinbaum praised the military's coordination and urged calm, while the unrest raises safety worries for Guadalajara as a 2026 World Cup host city.

Key Takeaway

Special forces stormed a hideout in Tapalpa, Jalisco, ending years of pursuit for the infamous El Mencho—only for his cartel to unleash fiery chaos across Mexico in revenge.

A YouGov survey of over 1,000 U.S. adults from February 10-13 revealed 50% support for D.C. statehood and 48% for Puerto Rico, compared to just 27% for Greenland and 24% for Canada. Partisan splits stand out: Democrats strongly favor D.C. and Puerto Rico but oppose the others, while Republicans lean against D.C. and Puerto Rico yet show more openness to Greenland. The findings highlight ongoing debates over representation for tax-paying areas without full congressional votes, amid hurdles like stalled bills and Republican control of Congress.

Key Takeaway

Imagine paying federal taxes without a voting senator—that's the daily reality for D.C. residents, and a new poll finds most Americans want to change it for them and Puerto Rico.
