You know there is something that sets you apart from the rest, but you never consider that there might be a disease behind it,” explains this man, whose name has been changed to preserve his anonymity.
This is just football, but enough because football is everything. It is politics, sociology, and economics. It explains a society, the anesthesia, it unites and divides us, it drives us to put our arms in the trash and find the witch’s mirror, the one that tells us we are the most handsome, stupid, and generous, but, at the same time, that there are others just as handsome, stupid, and generous. And also, when the case arises, racist, irresponsible, and cruel. Belonging to a club, to a national team, these days defines us, integrates us, prevents us from answering unanswerable questions, places us in rituals and calendars tied to curiosity, to the amazement of the game as a life lesson, its spectacularization.

However, whatever the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) says, the expectation is that the return of the former president of the Generalitat will still have to wait a few months. According to legal sources, the national arrest warrant against him will not be revoked until the Constitutional Court (TC) rules, presumably in October, on the appeal he filed against the decision of the Supreme Court (TS) judge Pablo Llarena not to apply the amnesty to him.
If the 23 days of strike this school year have made anything clear, it is that Ustec has decided to test strength with the Salvador Illa Government. Or rather, to twist its arm. The logic was simple. If the Executive took a step forward, it had to be stopped. If it proposed an agreement, raise the…

The 19-year-old from Madrid had fallen in the quarterfinals of Madrid and Rome. His next opponent will be American Brandon Nakashima, ranked number 25, who had also never reached this far in a major.
The Community of Madrid will set up 51 observation points and will hold a festival in Buitrago del Lozoya on the occasion of the solar eclipse that will take place next August 12, a historic astronomical phenomenon not seen from the Iberian Peninsula since 1905.

The prestige of Mossad, the espionage agency that for decades cultivated its legend of omniscience, is going through low times. The Israeli secret service, which once boasted of knowing the streets of Tehran better than those of Tel Aviv, now suffers the consequences of the failure of its most ambitious plan: overthrowing the regime of the ayatollahs. The internal crisis also erupts at the worst possible moment for Israel, with the October elections just around the corner, half a dozen open fronts between Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank, and a conflict with Iran that, far from being resolved, has become entrenched.
