Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:47:39 GMT

BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — Mackenzie Arnold’s impact on Australia’s biggest Women’s World Cup moment was so immense that it’s hardly surprising it took vanquished France coach Herve Renard to describe it best.“We came up against a Goliath of a goalie. What a game,” Renard said.Australia won a penalty shootout 7-6 against Renard’s team after their quarterfinal ended 0-0 in regulation and extra time on Saturday.Arnold was “the winning factor,” the French coach acknowledged, “both in normal time but also in extra time and then during the shootout.”Indeed. Arnold was instrumental in Australia advancing to the semifinals for the first time and ending the so-called curse of the host nation.Cortnee Vine, playing in her first World Cup and going on late as a substitute, was the 10th in a line of 11 penalty takers picked for Australia. She strode to the spot, aiming to finish off where two of her teammates couldn’t, and calmly converted to give the Matilda...

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:47:39 GMT

(CNN Español) — Javier Milei llegó a la política argentina y rompió los esquemas. El economista —según se define— “liberal libertario” logró lo que no lograron otros: colarse entre los espacios hasta ahora dominantes, el peronismo del Frente de Todos y el espacio del expresidente Mauricio Macri, Juntos por el Cambio. Algunas encuestas lo ubican como un candidato competitivo que podría llegar a un balotaje en las próximas elecciones presidenciales de octubre.Para comprender el fenómeno reciente de la política argentina, hay que remitirse al origen. Milei cultivó su popularidad rotando en sets de televisión como comentarista económico. Con su estilo vehemente y provocador, rápidamente se volvió un personaje indiscutido del prime time local, y algunos rasgos excéntricos de su personalidad terminaron de impulsarlo al estrellato televisivo.Algunos ejemplos del estilo de vida que hizo públicos: vive con cinco perros mastín inglés que pesan alrededor de 100 kilos cada uno, de los que...

¿Quién es Sergio Massa? De las idas y vueltas con el kirchnerismo a la precandidatura presidencial por el peronismo

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:47:39 GMT

(CNN Español) — Intentó ser presidente de Argentina en 2015 por fuera del peronismo, pero sin éxito. Antes de este viernes, cuando se anunció su precandidatura, Sergio Massa, ministro de Economía, no había confirmado ni rechazado esa posibilidad. Durante las semanas previas decía estar abocado a su cargo actual para tratar de resolver la alta inflación, de más de 100% interanual. Esa cifra es, quizás, su peor enemiga para llegar a la Casa Rosada.Ahora, tras el anuncio de Unión por la Patria en su cuenta de Twitter, Massa entra en la contienda presidencial. “Unión por la Patria tiene lista de UNIDAD. Por responsabilidad institucional, política y social, nuestro espacio ha decido conformar una lista de unidad que nos representará en las próximas elecciones”, se lee en el mensaje. Y luego continúa: “Nuestro candidato a presidente será Sergio Massa y lo acompañará como candidato a vicepresidente Agustín Rossi”.¿Quién es Sergio Massa?Sergio Massa es el terc...
