A week of thunder and rain ahead for Malta

A week of thunder and rain ahead for Malta
Oct 25 2021 Share

Prepare for some rumbling skies and rainfall as this week starting Monday 25th October is kicking off a week of thunder, showers and strong winds. Mid-week (that is Wednesday and Thursday), is set to be the pinnacle of this weather pattern, as thundery showers are set to dominate with temperatures at 20 to 21 degrees Celsius. We’ll be getting a taster today, with tomorrow Tuesday only set to continue the showers but put an end to the thunder.

Thankfully, you might not have to cancel your weekend plans after all as from Friday to Sunday, no showers expected. The weather will still be partly cloudy though, so you might want to play it safe either way. Suffice to say, we’ve entered the weekend weather gamble as more complex weather patterns make their way over the Mediterranean. It’s refreshing to get such weather after the summer heat waves however, despite having our weekend antics up in the air. Or maybe you’re up for some spontaneity and this is perfect for you!

Last May, Tyler had appeared on FRIENDS: The Reunion but was unable to appear in person due to his health issues. He instead appeared via Zoom, stating that the series was the most memorable 10 years of his life. He revealed that he didn’t want to reveal his illness because he didn’t want ‘to be like “oh, and by the way, Gunther has cancer”.’ FRIENDS’ official Twitter issued a message from Warner Bros. Television Studios, stating that they are mourning the passing of the actor, who was a beloved actor and integral part of the family.

Liverpool score five past Manchester United at Old Trafford

Oct 24 2021 Share

Earlier today, Liverpool easily beat Manchester United 5-0 away from home at United’s iconic Old Trafford. This game was a nightmare for every Red Devils’ fan, conceding five against their bitter rivals whilst also seeing star player Paul Pogba get himself a red card. The shocking defeat could also mean the end of Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s three year reign as Manchester United manager.

 

Liverpool had a perfect start, with midfielder Naby Keita scoring one of the easiest goals he will ever score in the 5th minute of the match. Manchester United looked like a team without a game plan in attack and in defence they looked even worse as they conceded another goal in the 13th minute, from a Jota goal. Manchester United tried to attack, with players like Ronaldo, Rashford and Bruno Fernandes coming close but throughout the match there was never the feeling that they would find the back of the net.

Liverpool ended any chances of a Manchester United comeback in the 38th minute when Mohammed Salah with a calm and collected finish found the 3rd goal of the game. Liverpool scored their fourth goal right before the end of the first half, when Mohammed Salah scored a beautiful volley from inside the box.

 

The second half started how the first ended, with Mohammed Salah scoring another goal this time in the 50th minute to seal his hattrick. The game went from bad to worse for United in the 60th minute when Paul Pogba was shown a red card for a risky tackle on Naby Keita, a tackle that led to the midfielder having to be stretchered off the match, being replaced by Alex Oxlade Chamberlain. The game died out after the red card with not many notable events happening after the foul. Liverpool looked like they lost their hunger whilst Manchester United lost all their belief.

Manchester United will look ahead to their next match, away to Tottenham to regain confidence whilst Liverpool have a mid-week cup game against Preston. Until now, there has been no guarantees that Ole will be the man in charge in United’s next game.
