Sinner leads Italy to Davis Cup semifinals; Australia edges past USA
Defending champions Italy advanced to the Davis Cup semifinals on Thursday after defeating Argentina 2-1, with world No 1 Jannik Sinner winning the singles and doubles match.
After leading his team to World Cup victory in 32 years, Lionel Messi is having a great time back home in Argentina. He is honoured by his fans everywhere he goes.
In a recent instance, the car of a little boy from Rosario was mobbed by his fans in his hometown while he was on his way to niece’s birthday party.
Earlier, Argentina players were forced to abandon a victory parade in the wake of a massive gathering of his fans at every point the parade was to pass.

Earlier this month, the World Cup turned out to be a dream run for Argentina and its fans. The megastar Lionel Messi led his team to World Cup victory as he was also named the Player of the Tournament after he scored a total of 7 goals, just behind the top scorer Mbappe.
He also scored 2 goals in the final itself and one in the penalty shootout as Argentina snatched victory from the hands of France in the penalties by 4-2.
Moreover, he plays club football for PSG and is expected to be back in action next week. In Messi’s absence, Mbappe smashed an injury-time penalty to register a 2-1 win for PSG over Strasbourg on Thursday.
