KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 23 — Two foreign nationals have become the first individuals in Malaysia to be charged in court for littering under the newly enforced anti-littering law, according to a report by The Star.
LONDON, Feb 20 — Arsenal face a crucial north London derby at Tottenham as title race pressure intensifies. The Gunners have struggled recently, drawing twice in their last seven league matches and squandering leads, leaving them five points ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand.
Forward Bukayo Saka remains confident the team will end their trophy drought. “We’re back where we belong, fighting for everything,” he said, insisting Arsenal will eventually “get over the line.”
Manchester City, boosted by wins over Liverpool and Fulham, could cut the gap to two points with a win against Newcastle on Saturday, increasing pressure on Arsenal ahead of Sunday’s clash. Midfielder Tijjani Reijnders warned City are “on the hunt.”
Meanwhile, Manchester United interim manager Michael Carrick has made a strong start, winning four of his first five games, including victories over Manchester City and Arsenal. Wayne Rooney praised Carrick, saying his familiarity and care for the club could finally stabilise United, who last won the league in 2013.
