Former player of Moscow's "Spartak" team Valeriy Kechinov shared his thoughts on Matvey Safonov's situation at Paris' "PSG" club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to him, new opportunities are emerging for Safonov against the backdrop of reports that the team's main goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma may leave the squad. Valeriy Kechinov emphasized that if Donnarumma leaves the team and the coach can trust Safonov, he has a good chance of becoming the main goalkeeper for "PSG". Additionally, according to the expert, rumors about Safonov leaving "PSG" are no longer relevant. The Russian goalkeeper Matvey Safonov transferred from "Krasnodar" to "PSG" in the summer of 2024. His transfer fee amounted to 20 million euros. The 26-year-old goalkeeper's current contract with the French champions runs until the end of June 2029. Previously, there were reports that Istanbul's "Galatasaray" club was also interested in Safonov. For now, Safonov is working to solidify his position at "PSG".

This was reported by Euro-football.ru. When asked about any doubts regarding the penalty shootout after the match against "Spartak," Serderov replied: "Penalties depend on luck in some cases, but we have strong nerves. We fight in every area of the field, so it won't be easy for our opponents. All players give their best effort. In my opinion, there is no other team that plays like us." Regarding the position of the "Dinamo" team in the tournament table, above Moscow "Dinamo" and other strong clubs, Serderov said: "We need to get used to such results. The most important thing is to look at the table at the end of the season. The season has just started, and it's not right to make hasty conclusions. However, such a good start inspires us. We will continue to grow and strive to move up the table." About the current capabilities of the team and the potential for growth, Serderov stated: "We haven't fully realized our potential yet. Of course, there is room for growth. In particular, we need to make better use of our opportunities in attack," he said. Interview prepared by: Elena Grigoryevskaya

Reports have emerged in the media that Albania national team forward Mirlind Daku may transfer from Russia's "Rubin" club to Italy's "Fiorentina". This was reported by Euro-football.ru. In this regard, "Rubin" club head coach Rashid Rahimov shared his thoughts. According to him, "Fiorentina" currently needs to sell their forward Kinn to another team. After that, interest in Daku's transfer may increase. The 27-year-old Mirlind Daku joined "Rubin" in the summer of 2023. His current contract with the club runs until June 2029. Currently, the player's market value is eight million euros. In the new season of the Russian Premier League, Mirlind Daku has played in four matches and managed to score four goals.

No official information regarding his future has been announced yet.

In recent days, the most important point on the battlefield between Ukraine and Russia – the Pokrovsk direction in Donetsk region is again in the spotlight. This was reported by Zamin.uz. According to several sources, Russian armed forces are advancing towards Kramatorsk and Slovyansk, breaking through Ukrainian defenses around the city of Dobropole. However, this information has not yet been confirmed by independent sources, and there are no video recordings on the internet confirming such deep movements. OSINT analysts are also studying the situation on the ground. According to data from the DeepState OSINT project, which is close to the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, Russian troops have advanced 8-10 kilometers north of Pokrovsk, reaching the villages of Kucherov Yar and Zolotoy Kolodes. They are gathering strength in this area and fortifying positions for the next move. Small groups that have crossed into the village of Veseloye have also been noted. The Russian army is trying to fortify in the villages of Novovodyanoye and Petrovka along the Dobropole-Kramatorsk route. DeepState analysts emphasize that the Russians are bypassing engineering obstacles built by Ukrainian armed forces and later using them for their own defense. If Zolotoy Kolodes, Kucherov Yar, Veseloye, and nearby villages are taken under control, the city of Dobropole may fall before Pokrovsk. International military analysts are also monitoring the situation. According to Finnish military expert Pasi Paroynen, Russian troops penetrated approximately 17 kilometers into Ukrainian defenses between August 9-11. Some sources have also reported that Russian groups have approached the outskirts of Dobropole. According to the publication "Ukrainskaya Pravda," the movements from May to the end of July have increased the risk of cutting off the Pokrovsk-Konstantinovka route. This route is the main supply line for the city. In June, this road was temporarily closed due to a Russian drone attack. The Ukrainian armed forces' "Dnepr" group announced that Russian troops are divided into small groups and are trying to breach the first line of defense. Nevertheless, they emphasized that the areas are not fully under control. The "Azov" units reported that they have fortified the defense line near Pokrovske. The former commander of "Azov," Bogdan Krotevich, addressed President Zelensky, emphasizing that the situation is very serious. In his opinion, mistakes in the Ukrainian command and a lack of forces are causing the rapid advance of Russian troops. Some sources in Russia report that sabotage and reconnaissance groups are operating in the Dobropole direction. However, there is currently no concrete evidence of large-scale success. Political scientist Sergey Markov described this situation as a "souvenir" that has arisen before negotiations between Putin and Trump. On August 15, at a summit in Alaska, Trump and Putin are expected to discuss the Ukraine conflict. According to some media reports, Putin wants to take control of the part of Donetsk that is under Ukrainian control, but has no intention of returning the occupied territories of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. At the same time, Ukrainian President Zelensky has stated that he will not agree to any territorial concessions.

The coach of the Russian national team goalkeepers, Vitaliy Kafanov, shared his thoughts on the invitation of experienced goalkeeper Aleksandr Dovbnya to the «Spartak» team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to him, there are currently two strong goalkeepers in the «Spartak» squad. They are Aleksandr Maksimenko and Ilya Pomazun. Kafanov stated that if, for some reason, one of these two players is unavailable, the third goalkeeper will be brought into the game. In such a situation, the question arises of whether to trust a young goalkeeper or choose an experienced player. The leadership of «Spartak» prioritized experience, and this was the right decision, says Kafanov. For reference, Aleksandr Dovbnya signed a contract with «Spartak» last summer. Despite being 38 years old, he played in one match for the team and maintained the integrity of his goal. The club's management has placed their trust in the experienced player. This decision serves to strengthen the team’s goalkeeping lineup. Experienced goalkeepers are considered a reliable backup for the coach.

Former player of Moscow's Spartak team Valeriy Kechinov expressed his opinion regarding the defeat of the "red-whites" against Makhachkala's Dinamo in the Russian Cup match. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. According to him, Dinamo was also an uncomfortable opponent for Spartak last season. Kechinov emphasized that the Spartak team is currently not performing as they did last season, and the team's play is not noticeable. For reference, the cup match between the "red-whites" and the Makhachkala team took place on August 12 at the Lukoyl Arena stadium. The game ended 1:1 at the end of regular time. Then, in the penalty shootout, the Dinamo players acted more accurately and won 4:3. Thus, the Dinamo team advanced to the next stage. Experts believe that the Spartak team's performance is not yet yielding the expected results, and the team needs to improve its game going forward. This result was unexpected for Spartak fans.

Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson Moraes may move to Turkey's Galatasaray club. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Currently, negotiations are ongoing between the two clubs. According to reports, Galatasaray is preparing a new offer for Ederson's transfer, as the previous offer of 7-8 million euros including bonuses did not satisfy Manchester City's management. Additionally, Galatasaray has already reached an agreement on personal terms with Ederson. Today is considered an important day regarding this transfer, and the parties are expected to reach a final decision. Ederson has been with Manchester City since 2017. Last season, he played a total of 40 matches. During this period, the goalkeeper conceded 54 goals, but he kept a clean sheet in 13 matches. The 31-year-old Brazilian goalkeeper stands out with his experience and reliable performance. Galatasaray aims to strengthen its team through Ederson's transfer.

New information has emerged about the summit planned between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on August 15 in Alaska. This was reported by Zamin.uz. CNN reported, citing two high-ranking sources in the White House, that the negotiations will take place at the Elmendorf-Richardson military base in Anchorage. Initially, the White House preferred not to host the Russian delegation on military property. However, finding a safe and convenient alternative location for the meeting during the peak of Alaska's tourist season proved to be practically difficult. Options were considered among the cities of Juneau, Anchorage, and Fairbanks, and as a result, only the Elmendorf-Richardson base in Anchorage was selected, which meets the presidents' requirements and security standards. According to White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt, the main goal of the negotiations between Trump and Putin is to determine how to halt military actions in Ukraine. This summit is of strategic importance for the two leaders and, according to political analysts, it could create new opportunities for international agreements. This summit, held at the Elmendorf-Richardson military base, is expected to impact not only the US and Russia but also global politics. Experts suggest that the outcomes of this meeting could have significant implications for regional and global security in the future.

"Lazio" head coach Maurizio Sarri has expressed that he does not want Samuel Jigo to remain in the team. Currently, "Lazio" is awaiting offers regarding Jigo's transfer. The club aims to earn four million euros by selling the player. In the 2024-2025 Italian championship season, Samuel Jigo played in 15 matches, scored two goals, and received two yellow cards. Thus, the player contributed to the team, but the club's management has decided to part ways with his services. It is currently unknown which team Jigo will continue his career with.

Former player of the "Lokomotiv" team Dmitriy Bulykin shared his thoughts on the team's chances in the championship fight. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He emphasized that the "Lokomotiv" squad is strong and includes young players as well. According to Bulykin, at the beginning of the season, the team has psychological confidence, and an important aspect is to maintain this confidence and ensure that the players do not get injured. Because all leading clubs set high goals, and "Lokomotiv" is no exception. Additionally, after four rounds, the team led by Mikhail Galaktionov is at the top of the Russian Premier League standings, having accumulated 12 points. In the next round, "Lokomotiv" will face Kaliningrad's "Baltika" team. Thus, the club still has many important games ahead, and the team will strive to fully demonstrate its capabilities in the championship fight.

"Spartak" team midfielder Igor Dmitriev commented on the reasons for his team's defeat in the match against "Dinamo" (Makhachkala) within the framework of the Russian Cup. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. In his interview, he said the following about the team's performance and result. The match against "Dinamo" was not easy for us once again. Our team lost in the penalty shootout. The reason for this is that we tried to control the ball, but we couldn't strengthen our forward attacks enough. As a result, there was not enough activity in the attacks, and we couldn't take advantage of the opportunities. The head coach Stankovich could not participate in the match due to his disqualification. His absence was definitely felt. He will be with us in the championship matches, but this was the second time he was absent in the Cup matches. In general, when something is not going well in the game, the coaches provide the necessary instructions during the break. If Stankovich is not there, his assistants take on this task. Currently, the mood in the team is not good. We are all dissatisfied with the result. In such a situation, we feel uncomfortable in front of our fans and ourselves. Therefore, we are preparing seriously for the next game. Our goal is to stop this unfortunate streak and achieve victory. The team has only one task ahead: to strive for victory.

Opposition parties in India are complaining about the unfairness of the election commission during the process of the 2024 general elections. This was reported by Zamin.uz. According to them, there have been instances of vote tampering and other violations during the elections. The session was suspended when opposition members demanded discussions on issues related to the electoral system in Parliament. Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi stated, relying on the data from the election commission, that there are hundreds of thousands of fake or duplicate entries in the voter list. He emphasized that in some areas, dozens or even hundreds of people have been registered at the same address. Additionally, it was mentioned that video recordings from polling stations have been deleted. The election commission and the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party rejected these allegations as baseless. The commission demanded that Gandhi either prove his claims or apologize in public. Government representatives are accusing the opposition of undermining democratic institutions. During the investigation that began in June, 6.5 million names were removed from the voter list. The commission states that this was due to duplicate entries, deceased individuals, and those who have moved to other regions. Critics point out that voters, particularly migrants and representatives of minorities, have been unjustly removed from the list. The Supreme Court of India has stated that there is currently insufficient evidence for widespread voter deregistration, but has indicated that swift measures will be taken if such cases are proven.

OpenAI has introduced the ChatGPT-5 model and declared it to be the fastest, smartest, and most reliable artificial intelligence with improved protection against hallucinations. This was reported by Zamin.uz. However, practical research has shown that this new model is still not perfect. Despite the grand promises made in marketing statements, questions remain regarding its effectiveness and accuracy. According to data from the Vectara platform regarding error frequency, ChatGPT-5 provides less incorrect information compared to GPT-4. Specifically, its error rate is 1.4 percent, while GPT-4 has an error rate of 1.8 percent. Nevertheless, although ChatGPT-5 is slightly ahead of the GPT-4o model (1.4 percent compared to 1.49 percent), the difference is small, indicating strong competition. Interestingly, the ChatGPT-4.5 Preview version has an even better error rate of 1.2 percent. The model with the least errors is o3-mini High Reasoning, which has an error rate of 0.79 percent. This indicates that other alternatives are seriously competing against ChatGPT-5's claim of being the "most reliable." Despite improvements, ChatGPT-5 still lags behind the 4.5 model in terms of accuracy. At the same time, it significantly outperforms competitors like Gemini-2.5-pro (2.6 percent error) and Grok-4 (4.8 percent error). Overall, ChatGPT-5 holds a leading position in the market, but it is not the absolute leader. After the model was launched, older GPT-4, 4o, and 4o-mini models were removed from OpenAI Plus subscribers without warning. This led to dissatisfaction and debates among users. Many complained about the loss of traditional features, while some described it as "losing a single friend." The sudden change in user habits and workflows naturally triggered emotional reactions. Technological changes must always be implemented with caution. Company leader Sam Altman acknowledged that he did not sufficiently consider the importance of older versions for users and promised to temporarily reinstate the GPT-4o model. This decision was seen as an important step towards restoring trust. The reinstatement is a sign of acknowledging shortcomings and engaging in open communication. Currently, there are two main directions. On one hand, there are the achievements in speed, cognitive ability, and resistance to hallucinations of ChatGPT-5; on the other hand, the strong results of competing models like the 4.5 Preview and o3-mini High Reasoning are noticeable. The competition is very tight, and debates continue. In conclusion, ChatGPT-5 can claim the title of "the fastest, smartest, and most reliable," but comparisons in the market also hold their place. Therefore, users are advised to try solutions that fit their workflows and needs. If OpenAI remains true to its promises, results will speak louder than debates in the future.

The goalkeeper coach of the Russian national team, Vitaliy Kafanov, commented on the career of former Spartak goalkeeper, currently playing for Ural in Yekaterinburg, Aleksandr Selixov. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. Kafanov stated that Selixov is a strong goalkeeper and he has always liked him.

Experts estimate the player's market value at 900 thousand euros. Despite the difficulties encountered during Selixov's career, the coach believes he will show himself even more in the future.

Mutalip Alibekov, a defender of the Makhachkala "Dynamo" team, spoke about his impressions at the start of the new season. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. He mentioned this in an interview with the "Evro-Futbol" publication. — Was the start of the season successful for the team? — Yes, I can say that. But we could have earned even more points. We had opportunities in the matches against "Orenburg" and "Akron," but we couldn't fully capitalize on them. — What can you say about the team's potential? — We are playing at full strength, but we still have room for improvement. We will strive to get even better. — Were you surprised by the situation in the RPL standings? — Yes, but this is just the beginning of the season. Some teams have not yet found their game, which is why they are in lower positions. — Is it right for "Spartak" to be in a low position? — I don't want to discuss the opponent. In the cup match, "Spartak" had more reserve players on the field. They also had a debutant. Overall, the team did not play poorly. — What position is your team fighting for? — We want to be in at least the top ten, and if possible, in the top eight. — Which team's poor start surprised you? — "Zenit," "Dynamo," and "Spartak" are also losing points. But they will find their game and show good results. — Do you think the RPL champion will change? — There are many games ahead, and the results can change many times. I believe it will be an interesting championship. — What can you say about "Lokomotiv"? — They are playing very well. I have seen several of their games, and they deserve to be in first place. — What do you think about Batrakov being invited to "Southampton"? — I can't give a definite opinion on that. He is young and has shown himself well. The most important thing is to stay free from injuries. The rest will take care of itself. — Is it better to go abroad young or to gain experience first? — Gaining experience is also important, but trying to play abroad right now can also be beneficial. — Is he ready for that? — Of course, he is proving it with his game. — Zakharian left early and couldn't achieve success. — As far as I know, injuries hindered him. Otherwise, he would have shown himself. — How are the new players adapting to your team? — The new players are leaving a good impression. We are trying to integrate them into the team as quickly as possible. There is a friendly and warm atmosphere in our team, — said Alibekov. Elena Grigoryevskaya

Famous footballer Edgar Davids, who played for Juventus in past years, learned that his acquaintance Nabila Habibi committed theft. This was reported by Euro-football.ru. The ad.nl portal provided information about this. According to the publication, Davids found out several years later that his painting collection had been stolen. He had entrusted the collection to a trusted person. For a while, Habibi also lived in his house. While Davids believed the collection was kept in a safe place, Habibi stole 37 paintings, pawned them at various pawnshops, and received approximately 30 thousand euros. In 2017, when Habibi was unable to repay her debts, the pawnshops gained the right to sell the paintings. One of the buyers saw Davids' name on the back of a painting and contacted him through social networks. After that, Davids filed a lawsuit. Habibi admitted to the theft. Earlier, she had faced problems related to criminal cases and had left her acquaintance after taking 3500 euros from him.

The general secondary education system in Uzbekistan is undergoing fundamental changes. This was reported by Upl.uz. The country has officially begun implementing a 12-year education model. This was announced by the press service of the Ministry of Preschool and School Education. In the near future, a normative legal document confirming these innovations is expected to be signed. This decision was made as part of a comprehensive program to reform the education sector. The program was presented to the president on September 8 and envisions a systematic renewal of all stages from preschool to higher education. The transition to 12-year education is being carried out to align with international experience. The results of the PISA study conducted in 2022 showed that in 85% of countries considered leaders in education, the number of school years is exactly 12. The introduction of the new model will allow adapting curricula to international standards and also enable students to be well-prepared for subsequent stages of education and vocational training. The updated system structure will be as follows: the first year is designated as a preparatory stage for 6-year-old children, which is considered part of primary education. Primary education will last a total of 5 years, including 1 year of preparation and 4 years of primary school. The next stage is basic general secondary education, covering grades 5 to 9 and lasting 5 years. The final 2 years constitute complete general secondary education, which will be conducted in schools, academic lyceums, specialized military schools, or technical colleges. To ensure a smooth transition process and create the necessary infrastructure, about 3,600 new schools will be built and more than a thousand state kindergartens will be opened. It is precisely in these institutions that the updated preparatory program for the youngest students will be piloted. An interesting point is that information about the transition to 12-year education had been actively discussed on social networks since 2023. However, at that time, the Ministry of Preschool and School Education officially denied these claims, emphasizing that the 11-year education system was in effect. The current decision shows that approaches at the state level have been reconsidered and there is political will to implement large-scale reforms. In the history of independent Uzbekistan, a 12-year education system has existed before. From 2010 to 2017, education was organized based on a 9+3 scheme, where students who completed grade 9 were required to continue their studies at vocational colleges and academic lyceums.

Recently, many rumors have been spreading about the relationship between the famous Turkish actress Hande Erchel and entrepreneur Hakan Sabanji. This was reported by Zamin.uz. In particular, news about the couple's divorce has sparked great interest among fans. Hakan Sabanji, who spoke for the first time on the Gel Konuşalım program, responded to the claims regarding their relationship. Although he did not want to talk extensively about his personal life, he clarified some of the rumors. Hakan Sabanji emphasized that he does not want to discuss the issue of divorce because it concerns their private life. He also stated that the rumors about infidelity are completely unfounded. Earlier, Hande Erchel had deleted all photos with Sabanji from her social media pages. This became the basis for reports in the Turkish press about their divorce. The famous journalist Birsen Altuntaş highlighted that there are serious disagreements between the couple, but the official divorce has not yet occurred. Nevertheless, Hande and Hakan still follow each other on social media. While some fans hope for the restoration of their relationship, others speculate that this process might simply be publicity for the media.
