Sports Desk, Feb 18 (EFE).- Building on their derby win over Everton, Liverpool topped Newcastle United 2-0 Saturday in a game in which the Magpies went down to 10 men in the 22nd minute. Newcastle, meanwhile, will seek to turn the page as they prepare for next weekend’s Carabao Cup final against Manchester United. Newcastle went behind 2-0 in the 17th minute, as Mohamed Salah found Cody Gakpo with a ball over the top of the defense and the Dutch striker put it past goalkeeper Nick Pope. Saturday’s action began in Birmingham, where Arsenal scored two late goals to beat Aston Villa 4-2 in a thriller that returned the Gunners to the top of the table. Aston Villa took an early lead through Ollie Watkins’ left-footed finish, but Arsenal soon equalized thanks to Bukayo Saka’s strike.

We haven’t scratched the surface: Egypt eyes tourism boost out of crises

“It hasn’t even scratched the surface,” Ahmed Issa, Egypt’s Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, told Efe. Egypt was not spared the screeching halt tourism witnessed during the pandemic but had begun to tentatively recover. Egypt’s market share of the global travel market was around 1% in the last year before Covid,” Issa said. In 2021, Eastern Europeans accounted for just over half of the international tourists in Egypt, according to Capmas. This is where Egypt is positioned now.”To offset the drop in Eastern European tourists, Egypt has had to diversify its target audience, which in some cases have grown threefold, Issa said.

City edge closer to Arsenal; Man Utd salvage draw against Chelsea

Two other clubs hoping to factor in the title race, Chelsea and Manchester United, battled to a 1-1 result and remain fourth and fifth in the table, respectively. Brighton came into the contest at the Etihad still looking for their first-ever win at the home of Manchester City, who led 2-0 at the break on a brace from Haaland. Solly March robbed the ball from City defender Manuel Akanji and then cut it back to Trossard on the edge of the area. City improve to 26 points, 1 behind Arsenal, who will be away Sunday to 15th-place Southampton. Casemiro’s first goal since coming over from Real Madrid was enough for United to come away with a point.

Leipzig battle back to draw with Man City; Inter edge Porto 1-0

Riyad Mahrez sent a good ball into the box for the waiting Ruben Dias, but Leipzig goalkeeper Janis Blaswich made the stop. Mahrez sent a free kick straight into the wall three minutes later, before grabbing the lead for City in the 27th. After having nothing to do for the first 45 minutes, City keeper Ederson denied Timo Werner right before the break. Second-half sub Benjamin Hinrichs headed over the City cross-bar in the 53rd and sent the ball just outside the post two minutes later. Lautaro Martinez headed over the cross-bar in the 13th minute, while Porto keeper Diogo Costa did well to thwart Alessandro Bastoni on the final kick before the break.

Bolivia worships human skulls, forgotten souls with candles, coca

By Yolanda SalazarLa Paz, Nov 8 (EFE).- The La Paz General Cemetery filled Tuesday with “ñatitas,” the human skulls worshiped in Bolivia with flowers, coca and candles to give thanks and ask for favors such as health, justice and employment. Like every Nov. 8, the ñatitas, named for their lack of a nose, arrived at the cemetery with their owners to be blessed. A couple of days ago, a relative gave her a ñatita named Andrés who, according to what they told her, is very “jealous” of women and does not let them marry. The priest who officiated the mass asked people to pray for the forgotten souls so that they rest in peace and asked that good be done with the skulls. This day is the only one in which devotees can go to the cemetery with their human skulls, since otherwise they can be accused of grave desecration.

More flight cancellations at Florida airports as winter storm continues

In Florida, the Sunshine State’s main airports continued to register flight cancellations and unusually low temperatures, including hard freezes in the north, across the weekend despite the fact that the storm appears to be weakening. The online FlightAware flight tracker, which provides real time flight data and said that some 2,800 flights had been cancelled nationwide as a result of the storm, emphasized that Florida’s most important airport, the Orlando terminal, registered 45 incoming flight cancellations so far on Sunday, or 8 percent of the arriving flights. The Tampa airport, too, registered 20 arrival cancellations, again 8 percent of the scheduled total. In Miami, early on Sunday the temperature was pegged at 45 F (7 C), significantly below the average winter thermometer reading. The cold-blooded lizards that inhabit normally tropical South Florida, become torpid during freezing weather and sometimes tumble out of the trees in which they nest.

Venezuelans adrift in Mexico after US tightens immigration restrictions

By Pedro Pablo CortesMexico City, Oct 23 (EFE).- Chaos and uncertainty for Venezuelan migrants in Mexico has marked the first week after the United States tightened restrictions on its immigration policy, including immediate deportation across its southern border for migrants who illegally cross it to enter the US. “After the restrictions, many people were left adrift. This was the effect of the restrictions: thousands and thousands of us on the street,” Venezuelan Nestor Sanchez told EFE at an improvised migrant camp in Tapachulas, in Mexico’s southern state of Chiapas, on the border with Guatemala. Doctors Without Borders warned that Venezuelan migrants’ main need is for information so that they can make a decision what to do, and then they need basic things like healthcare and psychological attention, which the organization can provide. Given the uncertain conditions in Mexico, migrants in cities like Tijuana are asking for flights to return them to Venezuela and others on the southern border are crossing into Guatemala to begin their journeys back home.
