MONTREAL — Romain Grosjean has 10 Formula One podium finishes in his career. It is difficult to tell whether we should be impressed by that number, given he hasn’t spent a ton of time in a top car, or disappointed that a driver with such obvious talent has not had the machinery to allow him to shine as his career has progressed.

It required extra time, two hours of largely forgettable football and an awful lot of luck, but the 1-0 victory over Croatia in Lens Saturday night has ensured this Portugal side can continue what is a fantastic...

The more we want things to change, the more they stay the same. Instead of trotting out an experimental side in the third-place game of the Copa America Centenario, United States men’s national team manager Jurgen Klinsmann opted for a veteran-laden starting XI that produced few positives in a 1-0 defeat to Colombia. Klinsmann, who caught criticism for using Kyle Beckerman, Chris...
