Cuba vote opens final chapter of Castro era.

Cubans voted Sunday to ratify a new National Assembly, a key step in a process leading to the elevation of a new president, the first in nearly 60 years from outside the Castro family. The new members of the National Assembly will be tasked with choosing a successor to 86-year-old President Raul Castro when he steps down next month. “The next president may not have that surname, but he will undoubtedly be a son of the Revolution,” the Foreign Ministry said on Twitter. Castro voted in the southeastern province of Santiago de Cuba while his first vice president and likely successor, Miguel Diaz-Canel, cast his ballot in the central Santa Clara province. “The triumphal march of the revolution will continue,” Diaz-Canel said after voting, promising “peace, liberty, independence and the sovereignty of the people will endure.” Raul Castro took over in 2006 from his ailing brother Fidel, who had governed since seizing power during the 1959 revolution.

Outstanding Five: Iheanacho, Nwakali star over the weekend.

Maybe this might be that break he so needed, the goal, that sparks things into life, that causes that long awaited chain of positive events. Iheanacho’s last goal in a league match was against West Ham U23 in September in the Premier League 2. Finally he’s gotten off the mark for the Foxes in the Premier League. After he was sent on Claude Puel in the 60 th minute in place of Shinji Okazaki, with the game still tied, Iheanacho made sure to impact he game just how Puel would have had in mind. This was the 12 th time he was substituted on, but he made sure this was the one he made maximum impact. Two minutes into his cameo, the 21-year old laid a brilliant assist for Mahrez to put Leicester City ahead. Kelechi held the ball calmly outside the box, head up assessing his options , then he spotted Mahrez’s run. Iheanacho chipped a sumptuous and perfectly weighed pass over the defence for Riyad Mahrez to latch onto to lob the goalkeeper. Read More ‘You’re a beast ...

Mendy must bide his time after injury: Guardiola.

Pep Guardiola says he will not rush Benjamin Mendy back for Manchester City after six months on the sidelines following knee surgery however keen he is to play. The French left-back, who made a big impression in the early weeks of the season after joining City from Monaco, has said he hopes to return to action next month. But Guardiola wants to err on the side of caution and feels he may have to hold the 23-year-old back for his own good. “The most important thing after six months is to be careful,” said Guardiola. “He believes, ‘I am strong, I will come back soon, I will play like I did before the injury.’ That is not happening. “Even if he believes he is strong he is not strong enough. After six months, he has to be careful.” The City boss said Mendy, who ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in September, was back in full training and could help out the team for short periods, following the approach taken with Ilkay Gundogan, who also suffer...

Wenger worried as Arsenal fans stay away.

Arsene Wenger admits Arsenal are struggling to win back their furious fans after thousands stayed away from the 3-0 Premier League win over Watford. For the second successive game at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal played in front of vast swathes of empty red seats on Sunday. Arsenal blamed heavy snow for the low attendance in their recent defeat against Manchester City, but the no-show against Watford could only be put down to a fatal combination of anger and apathy after another miserable season. “Must be -4 and snowing again at the Emirates,” Manchester United legend Gary Neville, now a prominent pundit, tweeted soon after kick-off. But Wenger, as he fights to keep his job, conceded he could understand why Arsenal supporters are so frustrated by their team’s wretched run. “There is a lot of negativity. It is like rain in England, it is easy to get,” he said. “Of course I worry because I want our fans to be behind the team, but after what happened in that week it...
