Sports news: A little less controversy, a little more action please

 

Host Laragh Widdess tells this week’s weird and wonderful sports stories from Israel and around the world, and picks a ‘team of the week’ that did something a little bit special.

In Israel: Shock results for Israeli premier league soccer’s top teams; Maccabi Tel Aviv basketball wins the State Cup; there’s rugby in Israel, and it’s being played by some pretty big Fijians; the Tel Aviv marathon shouldn’t prove deadly this year.

Further afield: Chelsea FC struggles with racist fans and Mourinho bemoans biased referees; Ronaldo becomes Madrid’s third-highest ever goal scorer; David Blatt’s Cleveland Cavaliers are going from strength to strength; and something about a big boxing match..?
