The Cranes goalkeeper Benjamin Ochan made a mistake in the first half but compatriot Saddam Juma covered his face with a brace in the second half to hand Uganda a third-place finish in the 2017 regional games. Pierre Kwizera gave Burundi the lead with a 23rd minute after the ball slipped off Ochan’s hands for a comfortable 1-0 half-time lead.

Zendaya recently spoke about celebrating her latest birthday to InStyle. The 24-year-old actress discussed the pressure and responsibilities that she has to carry, especially since her life is in the public eye. “There is a responsibility that’s different for me, though. I have to think about things that an average 24-year-old wouldn’t be thinking about. And a lot of people are watching,” she said. “So I can’t necessarily make the same kind of mistakes that people make in their 20s and just forget about it....

When NBC News anchor Savannah Guthrie summarized the theory to Trump (“Democrats are a satanic pedophile ring and that you are the savior of that”), she also asked him to say that it’s not true and to disavow the conspiracy. “I know nothing about QAnon,” Trump responded.

After the two sides exchanged penalty kicks awarded for nearly identical hand balls, Luka Modric scored a highlight-reel goal just before the break on a shot from outside the box that found the top right corner. It was a goal that gave the champs a 2-1 lead and they never looked back. In the second half, goals by Vinicius Jr. and Fede Valverde in transition rounded out the scoring. And Real Madrid could’ve added another, but Karim Benzema handed a penalty kick to teammate Eden Hazard, and the Belgian’s attempt was saved by Celta’s ‘keeper....
