With the power of Zubieta, Real Sociedad wins the Cup and awakens Atlético

Pablo Marín, the boy from Logroño whose first football memories are playing the drum and trumpet in the stands watching his father play, arrived at Zubieta at 13 years old and was a ball boy in the 2021 semi-final, and yesterday, in an exciting and nail-biting final, he gave Real Sociedad their third Copa del Rey title. A penalty shootout that featured another hero, Unai Marrero, who had already saved a penalty in the League last season against Kylian Mbappé and was key in the round of 16 against Osasuna this season. He did the same against shots from Sörloth and Julián Álvarez. A metaphor for an ill-fated final for Atlético, always behind, from the first breath to the last. It’s a matter of rewinding (2-2, 3-4 en penaltis).

Brussels imposes a historic fine on Google while Trump finalizes his new tariffs

The European Commission dealt a very significant blow to Google this Thursday, challenging the United States at a delicate moment in trade relations across the Atlantic. Brussels is shaking up the US tech industry by imposing two fines totaling 890 million euros for violating the European Digital Markets Act (DMA). The sanctions could be a cause for anger in the White House, as the criticized Turnberry trade agreement is about to complete a year and while US President Donald Trump finalizes new tariffs due to the expiration of the 10% global levies he imposed after the Supreme Court annulled his previous tariff barriers in February.
