The successful touchdown of the Chandrayaan-3 has captured the imagination and wonder of people all over the world as India became the first nation to land a craft near the largely unexplored lunar south pole. This successful mission came just days after a Russian lander crashed in the same region, and four years after the previous Indian lunar mission failed during final descent. The transformative potential that India possesses and offers is one that can mask the country’s excesses. The Chandrayaan-3 has a cost of $74.6 million, far lower than many missions from other countries, and this has only been possible because it has been able to copy and adapt existing technology, thanks to the abundance of highly skilled homegrown engineers. This is an example of long-term planning and investment in the right sectors being done right.

Pre-matchVincenzo Italiano didn’t change his XI at all from the big win over Genoa aside from Dodô replacing Michael Kayode, clearly prioritizing continuity over freshness. The real story, though, was the heat inside the Allianz Stadion: the temperature got past 30°C/90°F, which is extremely unpleasant to play in. First halfRapid Wien set out much as we all expected: a deep, compact block in two banks of 4, denying Fiorentina any space in behind. What was interesting was that they pressed higher than anticipated, forcing Fiorentina into more long passes than usual. A shell-shocked Fiorentina mustered no response and nearly conceded again, so the break certainly came at the right time.

(Joshua A. Bickel/AP)CINCINNATI — Lionel Messi had two assists and converted a penalty kick as Inter Miami rallied from a two-goal deficit and beat MLS-leading Cincinnati 5-4 in penalties in a U.S. Open Cup semifinal on Wednesday night. Cincinnati jumped to a 2-0 lead before Messi set up a pair of goals by Leonardo Campana, tying the game at 2. “I think we were lacking sharpness to navigate that first half,” Inter Miami coach Tata Martino said through a translator. Throughout the first half, FC Cincinnati had done well to close the space whenever Messi got on the ball. Cincinnati took a 1-0 lead early in the first half on a nifty flick from Acosta, its Argentine No.

Week 12 CFL betting odds and picks: Best bets for Calgary vs. Toronto, Ottawa vs. EdmontonWe’re honing in first this week on two teams headed in diametrically opposite directions, the Stampeders and Argonauts, followed by a clash between two of the CFL’s most vulnerable defences in those of the Redblacks and the Elks.

The season opener for the Texas Longhorns against the Rice Owls on Sept. 2 at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium is only nine days away and that means the Texas coaching staff is close to revealing the season’s first depth chart to the players ahead of Saturday’s mock game. Some position groups were still competing for starting jobs and rotations earlier this week coming out of the second scrimmage of preseason camp on Wednesday. I think we’ve got a really good rotation at corner, really at the linebacker spot as well, and on the D-line. But again, different position groups are different to where I’ve got to see what this looks like for a few more days before we really nail it down.”Here’s a look at how Burnt Orange Nation projects the depth chart against Rice.
