Benfica went into a slump at the worst time of the season, and it cost the team a spot in the Champions League semifinals.The Portuguese club couldn’t end its winless streak and was eliminated from the European competition after a 3-3 draw at Inter Milan on Wednesday. Benfica needed to reverse a 2-0 loss from the first leg at home to make it to the semifinals for the first time in more than three decades.It was the fourth straight match without a win in all competitions for Benfica, which before that poor run had lost only once all season and had won 13 of 15 matches.Benfica had been one of the surprises of the Champions League this season, going on an unbeaten run to win a difficult group that included Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus. It then cruised past Club Brugge 7-1 on aggregate in the round of 16.With a solid defense and a prolific attack, Benfica was seen as one of the teams to beat instead of one of the softer opponents ahead of the quarterfinals.But the first sign of trou...SpaceX launches giant new rocket on first test flight

It has been 15 years since a team from outside the Premier League reached the FA Cup final.Sheffield United is looking to end that wait, even if it’s not the priority in a defining few days for the club with plenty on its plate.On Saturday, the team nicknamed the Blades will attempt to deliver one of the biggest FA Cups shocks in years by beating Manchester City in the first of the semifinal matches at Wembley Stadium this weekend.Four days later, Sheffield United can seal a return to the lucrative Premier League with a home win over West Bromwich Albion in the second-division Championship.It’s quite the week in what has been a rollercoaster of a season for a club that is up for sale — a Nigerian billionaire wants to buy it from the current owner from Saudi Arabia — and presently under a transfer embargo for breaking financial rules.In the long term, getting back in the Premier League after an absence of two years is more important for Sheffield United, simply for financial re...Badminton keeps barring Russia as Olympic qualifying begins

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Badminton upheld its ban on Russian and Belarusian players in international competitions on Thursday, days before Olympic qualifying begins.Meanwhile, modern pentathlon said it would set up a “pathway” for athletes from the two countries to return but didn’t commit to a date.Badminton’s qualifying period for the Paris Olympics next year starts on May 1 and uses a calendar-year ranking.The Badminton World Federation cited security concerns and the need for “more clarity” on the International Olympic Committee’s “complex criteria” to admit some Russians and Belarusians as neutral athletes without national symbols but keep excluding others, such as military personnel or those who have supported the invasion of Ukraine.The IOC also recommends allowing athletes from only Russia and its ally Belarus to compete individually and not in team sports or “team events in individual sports.” That raises the prospect in badminton of players being allowed t...NBA Playoffs: Ja, Giannis watch their teams get big wins
