No. 1 UCLA women's basketball team focused on improving after upset of South CarolinaThe induction ceremony of Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) founder S Ramadoss’s grandson, Parasuraman Mukundan, as the party’s youth wing president turned dramatic on Saturday, December 28, when a public spat erupted Ramadoss and his son Anbumani Ramadoss. The incident took place during the party’s general council meeting. PMK is an ally of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Tamil Nadu. Parasuraman Mukundan is son of Ramadoss’s elder daughter, Gandhimathi. When Ramadoss announced that his grandson had been appointed youth wing president and would be assisting Anbumani, a visibly angry Anbumani immediately rejected the proposal, stating he did not need any assistance. “He [Parasuraman] joined the party only four months ago. What experience does he have? Qualified people should be selected for the position,” Anbumani said, questioning the grounds of Parasuraman’s appointment. Interrupting the applause from party workers, Ramadoss then declared that only his decision is final within the party, and that everyone must toe the line. “Nobody can be in this party if they can’t adhere to what I say. This is a party that I created,” Ramadoss said. Anbumani responded to this with sarcasm, prompting a frustrated Ramadoss to suggest that he leave the party. Following the confrontation, Ramadoss reiterated Parasuraman’s appointment and called for supporters to applaud. However, Anbumani interrupted once again, sarcastically criticising Ramadoss for inducting yet another family member into the party. He then dropped the mic on the table, which was promptly picked up by another party member on stage for an announcement. Anbumani, however, requested the mic once more and told the crowd that those wishing to meet him could do so at his new office in Chennai’s Panaiyur. He proceeded to provide the office address and contact number. PMK, which holds considerable influence in northern Tamil Nadu, had joined the NDA ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. Last year, senior party leader GK Mani’s son, GKM Thamizhkumaran, resigned as president of the youth wing reportedly due to differences with Anbumani. While founding the party, Ramadoss had said that he would not encourage dynasty politics.

Read unlimited articles for free today: Already have an account? It’s supposed to be the happiest time of the year, but that’s not the case for charities dealing with a nationwide postal strike. The Christmas season, coupled with the end-of-year deadline for tax-deductible charitable donations is, traditionally, a lifeline for most non-profit organizations. But since Nov. 15, if someone says the cheque is in the mail, it probably means it’s stuck somewhere in a post office, postal outlet or mail box. Friday marks two full weeks of strike action against Canada Post, and no mail is being delivered. MIKE DEAL / FREE PRESS FILES David Kron, executive director of the Cerebral Palsy Association of Manitoba, says charities are hurting. And, to make matters worse, a federally appointed mediator temporarily suspended talks between postal workers and the Crown corporation Wednesday, because the distance between their bargaining positions is too far apart for meaningful negotiations. “Big or small, all charities are hurting,” said David Kron, executive director of the Cerebral Palsy Association of Manitoba. “I don’t have a percentage, but I would say we get maybe a quarter of our donations, outside our events, during the last quarter of the year. We rely on the support of community. We’ve been around for 50 years and we want to be around for 50 more. “It makes life more difficult without Canada Post.” While plenty of Winnipeggers donate to local charitable organizations with the click of a mouse, many others choose to do things the old-fashioned way with a cheque, an envelope and a stamp. Kron said online donations are, of course, welcome but the convenience comes with a cost. “Credit card companies and PayPal usually take two to five per cent for the transaction and, when you’re a small charity, that’s money we don’t get,” he said. “But there’s no cost to cashing a cheque — we’re just not getting the cheque.” Officials at the Christmas Cheer Board and Harvest Manitoba are nervously watching the negotiations — or lack thereof — over postal service. Cheer board executive director Shawna Bell said traditionally about half of the organization’s donations arrive in the mail. “We haven’t seen mail for almost two weeks now, and that is concerning,” said Bell, who said more donations are being received via e-transfers. “But there will always be folks that don’t do that. It’s hard to really discern what the effect is at this point of time; we’ll just have to see how things go.” Harvest executive director Vince Barletta said he and other leaders at various charities “are sweating right now.” “About 40 per cent of our funds come in the last two months of the year,” Barletta said. “Direct mail to donors and donations coming back from donors is still a big, big part.... I’m asking people, whichever charity you support, please find a way to get that gift to them. They need it. The need is large and we rely on people.” Mary Beth Taylor, The Winnipeg Foundation’s vice-president of community generosity, said she has been advising the local charitable sector to post information on the web with instructions for donors. RUTH BONNEVILLE / FREE PRESS FILES Harvest executive director Vince Barletta said he and other leaders at various charities “are sweating right now.” “This is a major revenue season for a lot of charities,” said Taylor. “We are making sure our donors aren’t forgetting the charitable sector. People think the use of mail is decreasing, but charities use it to send a reminder to donors and to provide information of what’s happening and the priority of the organizations. “We are very worried.” Taylor is asking donors to go online or pick up the phone to help the charities they support. “Just be very patient, because there will be an increase in call volume,” she said. Jonathon Lyon, president and CEO of the Health Sciences Centre Foundation, said the strike has come at the worst time for organizations that depend on donated funds. Winnipeg Jets Game Days On Winnipeg Jets game days, hockey writers Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe send news, notes and quotes from the morning skate, as well as injury updates and lineup decisions. Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. “There has been a lot of movement to online through the years, but it will still have an impact because a lot of our contributions come through the mail,” he said. “And a lot of people make their giving decisions at this time of year. Our hope is people can go online.” While the Salvation Army is traditionally known for its Christmas kettle campaigns at street level, spokesman Maj. Al Hoeft said that isn’t the organization’s biggest fundraiser. “The mail component is huge for us,” said Hoeft. “This is concerning for us. Two-thirds to three-quarters of our donations are raised in November and December.” He said he hopes people go online, call the donation line or look for a kettle while out shopping. kevin.rollason@freepress.mb.ca Kevin Rollason is a general assignment reporter at the .

Seibert also missed a field-goal attempt and another extra point in the loss to the Cowboys. He missed the previous two games with a right hip injury but said afterward he was fine and made the decision to play. The Commanders filled that roster spot by signing running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. off their practice squad. Austin Ekeler had a concussion and Brian Robinson Jr. sprained an ankle Sunday.

Brookfield and the Grifols family, which owns about a third of the Barcelona-based company that makes medicine derived from blood plasma, have since July been in talks to take it private. Earlier this month Brookfield made a 6.45-billion-euro bid for Grifols, offering a tentative non-binding price of 10.50 euros ($11) per share. Grifols swiftly rejected the bid, saying it "significantly underestimated the fundamental prospects and long-term potential" of the company. In a statement sent to Spanish stock market regulator CNMV, Brookfield said it was "not in a position to continue with a potential offer" for Grifols. Grifols said its board agreed that "it is not feasible that the transaction goes ahead" and remains focused on "improving the company's long-term value". Its share price plunged in January after US hedge fund Gotham City released a research note accusing the company of "manipulating" its reported debt and operational results to "artificially reduce" its debt ratio, and therefore its financing costs. Grifols has repeatedly denied the allegations. Gotham City is a prominent "short-seller" hedge fund that borrows stock in a company and sells it, hoping to buy it back cheaper to return it to the lender and pocket the difference. Grifols traces its history back to 1909, first as a blood analysis and transfusion laboratory before specialising in products derived from blood plasma. It is present in more than 30 countries including Australia, the United States and Japan. It posted revenue of 6.6 billion euros in 2023, a 10.9 percent increase over the previous year. vab/imm/cwBy Hannah Fry, Los Angeles Times (TNS) Every day millions of people share more intimate information with their accessories than they do with their spouse. Wearable technology — smartwatches, smart rings, fitness trackers and the like — monitors body-centric data such as your heart rate, steps taken and calories burned, and may record where you go along the way. Like Santa Claus, it knows when you are sleeping (and how well), it knows when you’re awake, it knows when you’ve been idle or exercising, and it keeps track of all of it. People are also sharing sensitive health information on health and wellness apps , including online mental health and counseling programs. Some women use period tracker apps to map out their monthly cycle. These devices and services have excited consumers hoping for better insight into their health and lifestyle choices. But the lack of oversight into how body-centric data are used and shared with third parties has prompted concerns from privacy experts, who warn that the data could be sold or lost through data breaches, then used to raise insurance premiums, discriminate surreptitiously against applicants for jobs or housing, and even perform surveillance. The use of wearable technology and medical apps surged in the years following the COVID-19 pandemic, but research released by Mozilla on Wednesday indicates that current laws offer little protection for consumers who are often unaware just how much of their health data are being collected and shared by companies. “I’ve been studying the intersections of emerging technologies, data-driven technologies, AI and human rights and social justice for the past 15 years, and since the pandemic I’ve noticed the industry has become hyper-focused on our bodies,” said Mozilla Foundation technology fellow Júlia Keserű, who conducted the research. “That permeates into all kinds of areas of our lives and all kinds of domains within the tech industry.” The report “From Skin to Screen: Bodily Integrity in the Digital Age” recommends that existing data protection laws be clarified to encompass all forms of bodily data. It also calls for expanding national health privacy laws to cover health-related information collected from health apps and fitness trackers and making it easier for users to opt out of body-centric data collections. Researchers have been raising alarms about health data privacy for years. Data collected by companies are often sold to data brokers or groups that buy, sell and trade data from the internet to create detailed consumer profiles. Body-centric data can include information such as the fingerprints used to unlock phones, face scans from facial recognition technology, and data from fitness and fertility trackers, mental health apps and digital medical records. One of the key reasons health information has value to companies — even when the person’s name is not associated with it — is that advertisers can use the data to send targeted ads to groups of people based on certain details they share. The information contained in these consumer profiles is becoming so detailed, however, that when paired with other data sets that include location information, it could be possible to target specific individuals, Keserű said. Location data can “expose sophisticated insights about people’s health status, through their visits to places like hospitals or abortions clinics,” Mozilla’s report said, adding that “companies like Google have been reported to keep such data even after promising to delete it.” A 2023 report by Duke University revealed that data brokers were selling sensitive data on individuals’ mental health conditions on the open market. While many brokers deleted personal identifiers, some provided names and addresses of individuals seeking mental health assistance, according to the report. In two public surveys conducted as part of the research, Keserű said, participants were outraged and felt exploited in scenarios where their health data were sold for a profit without their knowledge. “We need a new approach to our digital interactions that recognizes the fundamental rights of individuals to safeguard their bodily data, an issue that speaks directly to human autonomy and dignity,” Keserű said. “As technology continues to advance, it is critical that our laws and practices evolve to meet the unique challenges of this era.” Consumers often take part in these technologies without fully understanding the implications. Last month, Elon Musk suggested on X that users submit X-rays, PET scans, MRIs and other medical images to Grok, the platform’s artificial intelligence chatbot, to seek diagnoses. The issue alarmed privacy experts, but many X users heeded Musk’s call and submitted health information to the chatbot. While X’s privacy policy says that the company will not sell user data to third parties, it does share some information with certain business partners. Gaps in existing laws have allowed the widespread sharing of biometric and other body-related data. Health information provided to hospitals, doctor’s offices and medical insurance companies is protected from disclosure under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act , known as HIPAA, which established federal standards protecting such information from release without the patient’s consent. But health data collected by many wearable devices and health and wellness apps don’t fall under HIPAA’s umbrella, said Suzanne Bernstein, counsel at Electronic Privacy Information Center. “In the U.S. because we don’t have a comprehensive federal privacy law ... it falls to the state level,” she said. But not every state has weighed in on the issue. Washington, Nevada and Connecticut all recently passed laws to provide safeguards for consumer health data. Washington, D.C., in July introduced legislation that aimed to require tech companies to adhere to strengthened privacy provisions regarding the collection, sharing, use or sale of consumer health data. In California, the California Privacy Rights Act regulates how businesses can use certain types of sensitive information, including biometric information, and requires them to offer consumers the ability to opt out of disclosure of sensitive personal information. “This information being sold or shared with data brokers and other entities hypercharge the online profiling that we’re so used to at this point, and the more sensitive the data, the more sophisticated the profiling can be,” Bernstein said. “A lot of the sharing or selling with third parties is outside the scope of what a consumer would reasonably expect.” Health information has become a prime target for hackers seeking to extort healthcare agencies and individuals after accessing sensitive patient data. Health-related cybersecurity breaches and ransom attacks increased more than 4,000% between 2009 and 2023, targeting the booming market of body-centric data, which is expected to exceed $500 billion by 2030, according to the report. “Nonconsensual data sharing is a big issue,” Keserű said. “Even if it’s biometric data or health data, a lot of the companies are just sharing that data without you knowing, and that is causing a lot of anxiety and questions.” ©2024 Los Angeles Times.

People facing long waits for NHS weight loss services could be taking matters into their own hands by buying potentially unsafe jabs online, the nation’s top GP has warned. Professor Kamila Hawthorne, chairwoman of the Royal College of GPs, warned some people are putting themselves at risk by purchasing drugs online from unregulated retailers, as well as potentially missing out on wraparound support needed alongside the medication. She also raised concerns about the safety of cheaper alternatives to the pre-filled injection pens which involve people preparing part of the medicine at home. It comes as the medicines regulator warned against buying weight loss medicines without a prescription on social media or through beauty salons. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) urged people to be aware of fake pharmacy websites and social media posts offering weight-loss medicines illegally without a prescription. It warned criminals will go to “great lengths” to make their businesses appear “authentic” and the products they are selling could potentially contain “toxins and other ingredients that could cause real harm”. Andy Morling, MHRA’s deputy director of criminal enforcement, said: “At this time of year, with many of us thinking about shedding a little excess weight, we see people offering weight loss medicines for sale as a quick fix, without a healthcare professional’s prescription, from beauty salons, websites and on social media. “These are not cosmetic treatments; they are powerful medicines that can only be legally and safely dispensed against a prescription issued by a healthcare professional. “Fake pharmacy websites and social media sellers illegally supply medicines that are not approved for use in the UK. These may contain toxins and other ingredients that could cause real harm, and you may even end up in hospital.” Meanwhile, Prof Hawthorne said the population is “gradually getting bigger and bigger” and has called on the Government to improve existing weight reduction services by ensuring they are properly resourced and have enough staff to meet demand. She urged people to reach out for help from their GPs before turning to the internet to buy drugs online. In an interview with the PA news agency, Prof Hawthorne said: “I think quite a lot of people are buying weight loss drugs privately. “We do have some serious concerns about that, because you don’t always know the provenance of the drugs that you’re buying unless it’s coming from an accredited company that’s properly regulated, and some of these places are not fully regulated. “So I think I would definitely be counselling the public not to do that privately, if they can possibly help it, and go to their GP.” Prof Hawthorne added that patients may not be getting appropriate wraparound care when they purchase the drugs online. The vast public and political interest in new weight loss drugs has made urgent action to address longstanding issues across the entire range of treatment services an unavoidable priority. We are pleased to see so much media interest in the report https://t.co/ff1gHmHuZf — Obesity Health Alliance (@OHA_updates) October 16, 2024 She continued: “The place where I’m working we are referring people to weight loss clinics, but there’s a very long wait. “In the meantime, we’re talking about what else they can be doing to lose weight.” Asked if the long wait for weight management services could be turning people to buying drugs online, she said: “Yes, I’m sure that they do. “If you’re faced with a two-year waiting time and you want to lose weight now, and you know that there is a way that you can lose weight, you know that drug works because nobody’s denying that they don’t work, you might well decide that you’re going to just sort it out yourself. “I would definitely suggest that you come and talk to your doctor or practice nurse about what you’re intending to do and let them help you – they may know ways of helping you that you haven’t thought about. “So definitely come and talk about it. Please don’t go off and buy a (weight-loss injection) unless it is under the supervision of a medically qualified doctor.” Prof Hawthorne went on: “We are as a population gradually getting bigger and bigger, and that brings with it a huge amount of chronic illness. “We are calling on the Government to improve the services for weight reduction.” A recent Obesity Health Alliance report highlighted how some patients are being asked to wait for up to five years for specialist weight management support. Some overweight and obesity management services are so overstretched that they have closed their waiting lists entirely. The alliance claimed the provision of services is “insufficient and unavailable to a significant number of people”. Katharine Jenner, director of the Obesity Health Alliance, told PA: “Weight loss medications offer hope of tangible improvements in the lives of people with severe, chronic obesity. “However, these drugs are only safe and effective for those for whom they are medically appropriate, as prescribed by a legitimate prescriber, and are not a long-term solution for the millions of people living with obesity.” Today we are joining @OHA_updates in calling for an urgent review of how obesity is treated in @NHSEngland . Their new report warns new pharmaceutical treatments have caused a wave of demand, adding enormous pressure to already over stretched services: https://t.co/5dP4mZMIVa pic.twitter.com/M2gurXIA2c — The BMA (@TheBMA) October 16, 2024 Earlier this year, NHS England chief executive Amanda Pritchard said “weight loss drugs will be a game-changer”, but “without transforming pathways they could overwhelm already-stretched services”. Obese people have been told they “will have to wait” for the so-called King Kong of weight-loss jabs, Mounjaro, amid a carefully managed NHS rollout, which spans 12 years. In the initial three years of its rollout, an estimated 220,000 people could benefit from the drug, out of around 3.4 million people estimated to be eligible. Those with the highest need will be front of the queue and NHS officials have pledged to review the rollout after the initial phase. The latest Health Survey for England shows 64% of adults were overweight or obese in 2022. A Department of Health and Social Care spokesperson said: “Obesity can be debilitating, costing lives, the economy and the NHS. “The introduction of the weight loss drugs to the NHS will ensure that those with the most need will receive treatment first. “Where appropriate, these obesity drugs can greatly benefit those in real need. “However, we recognise these drugs are not a replacement for a good diet and exercise and as part of our 10 Year Health Plan we will shift the focus of healthcare from sickness to prevention.”Clemson left guard Trent Howard out with ACL tear for South Carolina gameGiants face challenge in hosting Ravens, trying to end 8-game skid

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Dr. Jay Bhattacharya , a Stanford physician and economist known for his critiques of pandemic lockdowns and vaccine mandates, to serve as director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) . Bhattacharya gained prominence as a co-author of the Great Barrington Declaration, a controversial 2020 manifesto that opposed widespread lockdowns, advocating instead for "focused protection" of vulnerable populations while allowing the virus to spread among lower-risk groups to achieve herd immunity. Also Read: Donald Trump’s Second Term Could Reshape US Healthcare System, With Major Impacts on Affordable Care Act And Medicare The declaration, widely criticized by mainstream scientists and public health officials, framed Bhattacharya as a divisive figure in public health debates. If confirmed by the Senate, Bhattacharya will oversee the NIH's $48 billion budget and 27 institutes, which fund critical research on diseases like cancer and diabetes, the New York Times writes . He has called for significant reforms to the NIH, arguing that the agency suffers from "groupthink" and overreach by entrenched civil servants, an NPR report adds. "Together, Jay and RFK Jr. will restore the NIH to a Gold Standard of Medical Research as they examine the underlying causes of, and solutions to, America's biggest health challenges, including our Crisis of Chronic Illness and Disease," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. However, critics worry his leadership could undermine public trust in science, given his past positions on COVID-19 policies. Dr. Francis Collins , former NIH director, previously dismissed Bhattacharya's views as "fringe." However, he has acknowledged that pandemic strategies may have over-prioritized public health goals at the expense of economic and social considerations . Bhattacharya's partnership with Robert F. Kennedy Jr ., Trump's pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, has further fueled concerns. Kennedy's history of promoting unscientific theories about vaccines and other health measures raises questions about how NIH research priorities might shift under their leadership.

Liverpool is 100% on top of the Champions League after dumping title holder Real Madrid into an almost unbelievable 24th place in the 36-team standings on Wednesday. No one felt the embarrassment of Madrid’s 2-0 loss at Anfield more than Kylian Mbappé, the superstar added in the offseason by the storied club that also was European champion against Liverpool in the finals of 2022 and 2018. Mbappé had a penalty saved in the second half and was earlier dumped on his behind by Conor Bradley’s superb tackle in an instant viral moment. Only Liverpool has started the new Champions League format with five wins and first-year coach Arne Slot's team is two points clear of Inter Milan. Barcelona is third, trailing Liverpool by three points. Madrid is, remarkably, with three rounds left just one place above being eliminated. The top eight teams at the end of January go direct to the round of 16 in March, and teams placed from ninth to 24th enter a round of two-leg playoffs in February. “(This) doesn’t change much, because even with a win it was going to be tough to secure a top-eight finish,” Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said. ”It was a fair result." Monaco missed a chance to go second in the table, giving up a lead playing with 10 men from the 58th minute in a 3-2 loss at home to Benfica. Swiss forward Zeki Amdouni scored the winning goal in the 88th. Borussia Dortmund, the beaten finalist against Madrid in May, is up to fourth place after beating Dinamo Zagreb 3-0. Champions League standout Jamie Gittens now has four goals in five games, curling a rising shot in the 41st to open the scoring in Croatia. The best comeback was at PSV Eindhoven, where the home team trailed Shakhtar Donetsk by two goals in the 87th minute before a 3-2 win was sealed by United States forward Ricardo Pepi’s goal deep in stoppage time. US defender Cameron Carter-Vickers scored an embarrassing own goal for Celtic — playing a no-look pass far beyond goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel — in a 1-1 draw with Club Brugge. “One of those things,” Schmeichel said. “Cam gets pressed and he hasn’t heard me shout that I’m not in (goal).” Congo teammates Ngal’Ayel Mukau and Silas impressed in wins for Lille and Red Star Belgrade. Mukau scored twice in 12th-place Lille’s 2-1 win at Bologna and Silas leveled for Red Star in a 5-1 rout of Stuttgart, though he barely celebrated his goal. Silas is on loan with the Serbian champion from Stuttgart. Aston Villa's 0-0 draw with Juventus was preserved by an excellent save by Emiliano Martinez , the World Cup-winning Argentina goalkeeper, diving low to push away a header from Francisco Conceição. Liverpool’s stand-in right back Bradley was a standout Wednesday, denying Mbappé at high speed in a signature defensive play in the 32nd. The 21-year-old Northern Ireland defender, deputizing for fit-again Trent Alexander-Arnold, joined the attack in the 52nd to play a key pass returning the ball to Alexis Mac Allister who scored the opening goal. After Mbappé’s penalty was pushed away by goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher in the 61st, Liverpool star Mo Salah missed with his spot-kick in the 70th, before substitute Cody Gakpo sealed the win with a header in the 77th. Madrid now has lost three of five games after defeats at Lille and at home to AC Milan. The record 15-time European champion has another tough trip next, at fifth-place Atalanta on Dec. 10. On the same date, Liverpool is at 30th-place Girona and looks to be cruising into the round of 16. “You know how special it is to play against a team that has won the Champions League so many times," Liverpool coach Slot said of Madrid. “They were a pain for Liverpool for many years too.” Red Star Belgrade and Sturm Graz ended four-game losing runs to get their first points and wins. Red Star rallied against Stuttgart after the German team led in the fifth minute. The 1991 European Cup winner’s goal to level the game in the 12th was scored by on-loan Silas. He held up his hands as if in apology as part of a low-key celebration. Sturm Graz won 1-0 against Girona, the Spanish newcomer to European competitions. It was the Austrian champion’s first Champions League game since coach Christian Ilzer left to join Hoffenheim.

The S&P 500 climbed 0.6% to top the all-time high it set a couple weeks ago. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 123 points, or 0.3%, to its own record set the day before, while the Nasdaq composite gained 0.6% as Microsoft and Big Tech led the way.

Liverpool is 100% on top of the Champions League after dumping title holder Real Madrid into an almost unbelievable 24th place in the 36-team standings on Wednesday. No one felt the embarrassment of Madrid’s 2-0 loss at Anfield more than Kylian Mbappé, the superstar added in the offseason by the storied club that also was European champion against Liverpool in the finals of 2022 and 2018. Mbappé had a penalty saved in the second half and was earlier dumped on his behind by Conor Bradley’s superb tackle in an instant viral moment. Only Liverpool has started the new Champions League format with five wins and first-year coach Arne Slot's team is two points clear of Inter Milan. Barcelona is third, trailing Liverpool by three points. Madrid is, remarkably, with three rounds left just one place above being eliminated. The top eight teams at the end of January go direct to the round of 16 in March, and teams placed from ninth to 24th enter a round of two-leg playoffs in February. “(This) doesn’t change much, because even with a win it was going to be tough to secure a top-eight finish,” Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti said. ”It was a fair result." Monaco missed a chance to go second in the table, giving up a lead playing with 10 men from the 58th minute in a 3-2 loss at home to Benfica. Swiss forward Zeki Amdouni scored the winning goal in the 88th. Borussia Dortmund, the beaten finalist against Madrid in May, is up to fourth place after beating Dinamo Zagreb 3-0. Champions League standout Jamie Gittens now has four goals in five games, curling a rising shot in the 41st to open the scoring in Croatia. The best comeback was at PSV Eindhoven, where the home team trailed Shakhtar Donetsk by two goals in the 87th minute before a 3-2 win was sealed by United States forward Ricardo Pepi’s goal deep in stoppage time. US defender Cameron Carter-Vickers scored an embarrassing own goal for Celtic — playing a no-look pass far beyond goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel — in a 1-1 draw with Club Brugge. “One of those things,” Schmeichel said. “Cam gets pressed and he hasn’t heard me shout that I’m not in (goal).” Congo teammates Ngal’Ayel Mukau and Silas impressed in wins for Lille and Red Star Belgrade. Mukau scored twice in 12th-place Lille’s 2-1 win at Bologna and Silas leveled for Red Star in a 5-1 rout of Stuttgart, though he barely celebrated his goal. Silas is on loan with the Serbian champion from Stuttgart. Aston Villa's 0-0 draw with Juventus was preserved by an excellent save by Emiliano Martinez , the World Cup-winning Argentina goalkeeper, diving low to push away a header from Francisco Conceição. Liverpool’s stand-in right back Bradley was a standout Wednesday, denying Mbappé at high speed in a signature defensive play in the 32nd. The 21-year-old Northern Ireland defender, deputizing for fit-again Trent Alexander-Arnold, joined the attack in the 52nd to play a key pass returning the ball to Alexis Mac Allister who scored the opening goal. After Mbappé’s penalty was pushed away by goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher in the 61st, Liverpool star Mo Salah missed with his spot-kick in the 70th, before substitute Cody Gakpo sealed the win with a header in the 77th. Madrid now has lost three of five games after defeats at Lille and at home to AC Milan. The record 15-time European champion has another tough trip next, at fifth-place Atalanta on Dec. 10. On the same date, Liverpool is at 30th-place Girona and looks to be cruising into the round of 16. “You know how special it is to play against a team that has won the Champions League so many times," Liverpool coach Slot said of Madrid. “They were a pain for Liverpool for many years too.” Red Star Belgrade and Sturm Graz ended four-game losing runs to get their first points and wins. Red Star rallied against Stuttgart after the German team led in the fifth minute. The 1991 European Cup winner’s goal to level the game in the 12th was scored by on-loan Silas. He held up his hands as if in apology as part of a low-key celebration. Sturm Graz won 1-0 against Girona, the Spanish newcomer to European competitions. It was the Austrian champion’s first Champions League game since coach Christian Ilzer left to join Hoffenheim.
