Chelsea fell 2-1 to leaders Arsenal at the Emirates, with Jurrien Timber heading the opener, James equalizing from a corner, and Arsenal regaining the lead late. James dominated despite the loss, winning 5 of 6 duels, completing 50 of 53 passes, and earning 7-8/10 ratings for bossing Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli.

James' injury history limits him to 1,716 minutes, but pundits like Pat Nevin call his peak performances 'stupidly good.'

UN High Commissioner Volker Türk urged the Taliban to scrap their January 4, 2026, Criminal Procedure Code, which expands the death penalty, allows home-based corporal punishment, and treats beating wives without severe injury as no crime—harsher than penalties for mistreating camels.

Afghan women risk speaking out online, pleading for study amid healthcare barriers like men barred from treating them, as Türk pushes global pressure including ICC probes and no forced refugee returns.

On March 2, 2002, Bergkamp scored Arsenal's opener in a 2-0 win over Newcastle, assisting from Robert Pires with a right-foot flick, spin past Nikola Dabizas, and cool finish that Alan Shearer called world-class. Exactly 24 years later, Arsenal's post asked if it's the greatest Premier League goal ever, drawing fan praise and millions of clip views—BBC readers voted it top in 2017. With Arsenal leading the table at 64 points from 29 games after beating Chelsea 2-1, the moment evokes Bergkamp's 120-goal legacy of genius over power amid their gritty title push.

Key Takeaway

Picture this: a ball dropping from the sky, Dennis Bergkamp flicks it past a lunging defender with a pirouette, then slots it home with pure finesse. That 2002 magic at St. James' Park still feels unreal.

Wetangula arrived at the Supreme Court polling center in Nairobi Thursday morning but couldn't find his name on the voter register, as LSK rules require a valid practicing certificate—which state officers like him typically don't hold while in office.

Polls closed that evening with Senior Counsel Charles Kanjama elected as the new LSK president, defeating rivals with 3,728 votes amid smooth voting elsewhere.
