An unprecedented dispute pits Norwegian world champion Magnus Carlsen against American Hans Niemann, accused of cheating in physical and online tournaments. The case contrasts with the hushed universe of the "king of games". Since the beginning of September, the world chess champion, the Norwegian Magnus Carlsen, accuses of cheating his American rival, Hans Niemann, whose career has recently taken off. After refusing two games with Niemann, while remaining silent on his reasons, Magnus Carlsen ended up openly accusing him of fraud in a press release (in English) posted on Twitter Monday, September 26. Franceinfo returns to this file which worries even the international chess federation. 1 Who are the two players concerned? At the origin of this scandal, Magnus Carlsen, 31, reigning world champion, who has been squatting the peaks of the discipline since 2013. Originally from Tønsberg, in Norway, he also holds the title of "International Grandmaster" of 'chess. H...

Ice Hockey: The Colorado Avalanche win the prestigious Stanley Cup

Colorado lifted the Stanley Cup for the third time in franchise history. The players of L'Avalanche (name of the club) won the final of the North American Ice Hockey League (NHL) against the Tampa Bay Lightning , two-time defending champion. Colorado, already crowned in 1996 and 2001, dominated the series 4-2 and above all put an end to the reign of Tampa Bay, which had been flying over the NHL since the 2019-20 season thanks in particular to its two Russians, the prolific striker Nikita Hucherov and goalkeeper Andri Vasilevskiy. While they had only one game to win to celebrate their victory, the Avalanche players had blown a cartridge by bowing Friday in front of their audience (3-2). But they knew how to react perfectly in Tampa Bay to avoid a final meeting under tension in Denver. The outcome of this final, played in the best of seven sets, owes a lot to Nathan MacKinnon, author of a goal and an assist. On the other hand, it was his Canadian teammate Cale Makar who was named bes...

Basketball: the Golden State Warriors win their 7th NBA championship title

The Warriors dynasty revived! Thanks to Stephen Curry, imperial, and an intractable defense, Golden State won its 4th championship title in six finals played in the last eight seasons, the 7th in its history, by winning (103-90) in Boston, this Thursday . “ We did it! We did it! ” With his buttocks on the mythical parquet floor of the Garden, his eyes misty, after a still masterful performance (34 pts), Curry was inevitably overcome by emotion. Then shared with Dell, his father, a former outstanding shooter to whom he owes the best three-point scorer in history. Logically, with 31.2 points on average, he was named MVP of the final, for the first time, at 34, making his career a little more prodigious. Not that he was missed, repeatedly succeeding in high-flying matches, but Andre Iguodala in 2015, then Kevin Durant in 2017 and 2018, had been more consistent. So much so that the label of the player unable to raise his level in the most crucial games stuck to the skin of the leader, yet ...

NBA Finals: Golden State ties Boston 2-2

It's a duel at the top that has delighted all basketball fans. An NBA final between the Boston Celtics and the San Francisco Warriors, worn by Stephen Curry at the top of his game. In four games, he allows his team to win the match 107 points to 97. " It's just beautiful.

Ime Udoka, Boston Celtics coach, expresses his regret: "_We had a lot of opportunities, obviously.

Triumph: Santa Fe turned around and beat America in the first leg of the Super League

The cardinal box came back and won 2-1 in Cali after balancing the balance in the second half.  The return match will be on October 20. It was a monologue from América de Cali, but in the second half Independiente Santa Fe balanced the balance, came back and took a great 2-1 victory in Cali in the first leg of the Superliga, a tournament that faces the two champions of last calendar year of Colombian soccer. What is Santa Fe doing there? As only one tournament was played for the pandemic in 2020, Santa Fe, a rival that lost the title to the Scarlets, earned that right. And he is not wasting it. First of all, the usual: Juan Carlos Osorio faced this meeting following his first commandment of the rotation and did not go out with the bulk of his main men. But the dominance of the first half, with high pressure, was very high. Santa Fe didn't make a single shot. The account was opened by Carlos Sierra at 26 minutes with a header after a great battle center. The double 5 that Sierra led...
