Unexpected entertainment

The hero of the final
Villarreal made history by winning the Europa League against Manchester United, the first title in their history. A success achieved through effort and perseverance, but which was decided by Gerónimo Rulli’s stoppage in an endless penalty shoot-out. It was enough for the Argentine goalkeeper to deflect the eleventh pitch, shot by De Gea, to change the history of the modest Castellón club.

A new day of show
Last morning, three games were played in the first round of the NBA playoffs, all of them marked by the great offensive capacity of the teams. The Utah Jazz broke the resistance of Ja Morant, author of 47 points, to put the tie in the series against the Memphis Grizzlies (129-141) in the same way that the New York Knicks against the Atlanta Hawks (92-101).
