Liverpool vs Bayern MunichUefa Champions League 2018-19 | Round of 16, first legAnfield European heavyweights Liverpool and Bayern Munich lock horns at Anfield on Tuesday night in arguably the most eagerly-anticipated Champions League last-16 clash. The hosts secured their spot in the first knockout phase in dramatic fashion as a goal from Mohamed Salah and a terrific late Alisson stop sealed a 1-0 win over Napoli and the runner-up spot behind Paris Saint-Germain in Group C. Liverpool have taken advantage of the gap in the fixture list to embark upon their second warm-weather training camp of 2019 already. After heading to Dubai in January, this time they chose the sunny climes of Marbella on Spain's Costa del Sol. Bayern enjoyed an easier route to the last 16, going undefeated en route to topping a group that also contained Ajax, Benfica and AEK Athens.

A clean-shaven Julian Edelman and Devin McCourty present at the 61st Grammy Awards
Super Bowl MVP Julian Edelman is certainly keeping busy. After appearing on the circuit of morning shows, battling with lightsabers in Disney World, and letting talk show host Ellen DeGeneres shave his beard, a whiskerless Edelman joined teammate, safety Devin McCourty, to present the opening award at the 61st annual Grammy Awards Sunday night. Before the pair announced the winner for “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance,” McCourty couldn’t help but acknowledge the Staples Center crowd. After all, the Patriots edged both of the city’s football teams — the Chargers and the Rams — en route to their sixth Super Bowl title this postseason. “L.A., thank you for the cheers,” McCourty said. “Also, thank you for the boos. I appreciate you supporting your community.” Edelman followed with a line that hinted at both the championship and his MVP honor, “We’re here tonight with music’s most valuable players to present a very … [Read more...] about A clean-shaven Julian Edelman and Devin McCourty present at the 61st Grammy Awards

Andrew McCutchen goes clean-shaven for Yankees debut
Arthur Weinstein Updated at 8:52 a.m. ET Updated at 8:52 a.m. ET Andrew McCutchen will be at Yankee Stadium for Saturday's game against the Tigers, sporting a new look for his new team. The outfielder, acquired from the Giants Friday in a trade for two prospects and cash, posted a picture of himself Friday on social media, showing a freshly shaven face.

He showed off his new clean-shaven look in an Instagram story Friday afternoon. Check it out:Woah! It has been a very, very, very long time since McCutchen rocked a clean-shaven look. He's always had a goatee or beard as a big-leaguer. You probably have to go back to his days as a minor-leaguer for the last time McCutchen was clean-shaven, and that was probably because he couldn't grow facial hair yet!The Yankees have had a … [Read more...] about Andrew McCutchen reveals new clean-shaven look following trade to Yankees
