Deatrich Wise Jr.'s physicality impresses against the Giants, but also nearly gifts them a TD During the Commanders' second preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals, the only preseason contest in which Washington's starters saw significant playing time, Wise picked up two face mask penalties. It's a trend that has continued into Week 1, with the longtime New England Patriot being flagged on fourth down with the Giants at the goal line.

It is beyond clear that the Patriots have a lot of fixing they need to do during the upcoming NFL season if they want to be an improved, or better yet, a competitive team once again. Mike Vrabel and the new regime attempted to change some of the biggest concerns with the roster by adding some top-name talent in free agency and the draft, and based on what was seen during the preseason, it appears that much of it worked.

Ah-Ahli won the Saudi Super Cup after defeating Al-Nassr 5-3 on penalties following a dramatic 2-2 draw in Saturday's final. Al-Nassr led twice in the match, with Marcelo Brozovic's effort with eight minutes to play looking to have secured the first silverware of the season. But Ibanez's 89th-minute equaliser took the tie to spot-kicks, where Al-Ahli prevailed courtesy of captain Edouard Mendy's save from Abdullah Al Khaibari.

Shelbourne officials worked hard to satisfy UEFA and ensure this occasion was held at Tolka Park and while it more than delivered on the drama front, this win will only be remembered if they finish the job in Belfast next week. In a breathtaking first-leg tie, Joey O'Brien's Reds edged this all-island rematch but much like their Champions League clash five weeks ago, it wasn't exactly straightforward as the sold-out crowd were treated to three penalties, while an early red card came Linfield's way too.

Marvel Rivals' Season 3.5 introduces stricter penalties for players who disconnect or go AFK during matches, including longer temporary bans from competitive play.

Sweden came out with a gameplan to attack England's biggest weakness: its shaky center back pairing. This bore fruit almost immediately.

Penalties are an awful way to lose. I'd rather throw it in for one last play and just say, 'next score wins'.
