Fury v Joshua: Are superfights worth super-waits?

Lebanon might not be the first place you think of when you think of rugby league, but their men's national team, the Cedars, have reached the quarter-finals at the past two World Cups. The team is composed of players from Australia's large Lebanese diaspora, several of whom are leading names in one of the world's top leagues, the NRL. Lebanon's own national federation is working to build the domestic game too - something that's proved increasingly challenging given the crises the country has faced in recent years. More than the Score's Delyth Lloyd hears from Gaby Haddad, chief operating officer of the Lebanese Rugby League Federation, about the sport's history in Lebanon, his hopes for developing domestic players who can star on the world stage, and the battle his federation faces to persuade eligible players to represent them.

An independent commission has found Manchester City guilty of all charges relating to breaches of the Premier League's financial regulations across a nine-year period between 2009 and 2018. During the period in question, City spent around $1.5 billion on transfers and won eight trophies - including three Premier League titles - but the club was found to have artificially inflated revenue through "sham" sponsorship agreements. City have always protested their innocence, and have lodged an appeal. In a short statement, they said the commission's ruling contained "clear material errors, of law, principle and fact and is unsafe". So just how damaging could this case be for both Manchester City and the Premier League, and how does it compare to some of sport's other major scandals? More than the Score's Delyth Lloyd is joined by Kieran Maguire, professor of football finance at the University of Liverpool, and Simon Chadwick, professor of Afro-Eurasian sport at Emlyon Business School, to discuss the case and its potential consequences - as well as how far its impact could extend beyond football.

Manchester City striker Erling Haaland’s controversial winner in the recent Manchester derby has reignited the debate over VAR in football.

If you've watched cycling on TV, you've probably seen people racing away from the rest of the pack, or peloton - then struggling alone for mile after mile, before eventually being caught again. It's a hard, risky way to go for the victory, and doesn't often succeed. But what's it like when it does? Sigrid Haugset shocked the cycling world this summer when she rode nearly 90km on her own to win a stage of the Tour de France Femmes - the longest solo breakaway in the race's history. Her efforts also saw her become the first Norwegian woman to wear its famous yellow jersey. During his competitive career, Steve Cummings gained a reputation as one of cycling's most adventurous racers, winning stages of the Tour de France and Vuelta a Espana, as well as Olympic and World Championship medals for Great Britain. He now works as a directeur sportif for the Jayco AlUla team, masterminding the victories of other riders. They talk to More than the Score's Lee James and the BBC's Matt Warwick about the art of the breakaway - how to know when to go, and what it takes to stay away.
