Forest upsets Liverpool as Haaland fires City back on trackMANCHESTER, England (AP) — Familiar faces came back to end Liverpool’s mini-revival in a shock 1-0 loss at relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Saturday. Liverpool’s win against City last weekend had looked like putting it back on track after such an unconvincing start to the season. "(It feels) as low as possible,” the Liverpool manager said.

Judge, slumping Yankees on the brink after getting blankedNEW YORK (AP) — Back home for a must-win game, Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees generated more boos than base hits. Boston accomplished the feat in the 2004 ALCS against the rival Yankees on the way to winning its first World Series championship in 86 years. Right now, though, New York would welcome something as simple as a clutch single — because the Astros are Yankees kryptonite. Judge, who set an American League record with 62 home runs during the regular season, went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts and never got the ball out of the infield. They eliminated the Yankees from the postseason in 2015, 2017 and 2019, and are right on the cusp of doing it again.
