Rotos de dolor, con un nudo en la garganta y sin poder creer que esto sea verdad, desde el CD Tenerife comunicamos el trágico fallecimiento, este martes, día 3 de noviembre de 2026, a las 8:00 horas, de Jesús de Miguel Alameda. No hay palabras de consuelo; no hay absolutamente nada que mitigue este sentimiento repleto de tristeza. Estamos junto a su desolada familia, junto a sus seres queridos, junto a todo el tinerfeñismo que hoy llora por este cruel desenlace. La familia de Jesús de Miguel agradece todas y cada una de las muestras de apoyo recibidas, e igualmente solicita, de corazón, máximo respeto a su privacidad, en estos terribles momentos. 🖤 DEP

Tokyo is now on its 31st consecutive day of rain. This doesn’t mean it has rained continuously, but that rainfall has been observed every day in the last month. To mark this milestone, it’s been pissing down all day today in the capital. 🇯🇵 🌧️ ☔️ 🌧️ ☔️
<東京都心は31日連続で雨> 東京都心は今日も降水を観測し、これで8月27日から続く連続の降水観測は31日となりました。 明日および週明けも降水の観測があれば、2019年の記録に並び、過去最長となります。 weathernews.jp/news/202609/2…

If you thought this never-ending rain in Tokyo was unusual, you are correct: 21 days of rain in a row is a first in 150 years of records

An extreme rainfall event has been ongoing for hours in Chiba, just east of Tokyo. Chiba city itself saw 107mm in just one hour. Lots of images and videos of major street flooding, people wading through water and disruption to transportation

Gianni Infantino surely cannot survive as FIFA president now. UEFA, AFC and CONCACAF have begun preliminary discussions about the possibility of organizing competitions among themselves to ensure that players can continue to compete - such as in the Women’s Under-20s World Cup which starts in less than a month - and are not impacted by the ongoing crisis surrounding Gianni Infantino. The message from the three confederations to Infantino is very clear. He is being given the opportunity to resign and leave his position with dignity. He has the opportunity to go now and should not seek re-election in March. Because the pressure, the heat and the headlines are not going away. Change has to come. Infantino has to go.

This is a culmination of Spain investing at every level of the game. Olympics, Euros, World Cup, Women’s football - it’s a system and identity that has become a ridiculous force. It’s unbelievable what they’ve achieved as a nation, top down.

EA Sports have actually cooked again 😳😮‍💨 At the beginning of the tournament they predicted Spain would win the World Cup, and they've only gone and made that a reality 🏆🇪🇸 Let's not forget, they've predicted the last five winners completely accurately 💯
