      Erin Cuthbert’s late winner against City puts Chelsea a step closer to WSL title

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian • 23 March

    Chelsea produced a fightback worthy of the Women’s Super League title they are on course to winning, to beat a Manchester City side that will feel aggrieved about a particularly controversial first-half incident.

    The Chelsea midfielder Erin Cuthbert won a thrilling game with a late header that sent the away fans into raptures. Long before that decisive moment, however, City were understandably baffled and frustrated after Jess Park expertly curled the ball into the top corner from just outside the penalty area only to realise the referee, Kirsty Dowle, had stopped play for a free-kick, moving to blow her whistle just as Park was connecting with her shot.

We will not let this happen. We’re over the shock the shock of the betrayal, but we can never forget the lessons. We have to look out for ourselves. We have to look out for each other.”

      Trump’s expansionism threatens the rules-based order in place since second world war

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian • 23 March

    UN charter says members ‘shall refrain from the threat or use of force’ against a country’s territory or independence

    The post-second world war taboo on acquiring territory through force or by the threat of force is being unravelled by a generation of political leaders, led by expansionist threats from Donald Trump that are unprecedented for a US president.

    Experts are warning that a combination of the Russian aggression against Ukraine and Trump’s comments explicitly pushing for the US to acquire Greenland, Canada, the Panama canal and Gaza is fuelling a permissive environment that threatens long-recognised borders and the international rules-based order that has existed since the end of the war.
