Greece, UEFA vow to clean up Greek football

ATHENS: The Greek government on Tuesday signed an accord with UEFA to clean up Greek football, seeking ways to tackle the threat posed by corruption, match-fixing and other problems.

Challenges include finding ways to fight the threat of match-fixing, corruption and doping as well as refereeing issues. Match officials went on strike in 2018 and threatened a strike in January after attacks on referees and their homes and an attempt by Olympiakos to sue five referees.

‘It is just one of those things’: Briton becomes oldest man in the world

A Briton has become the oldest man in the world after the former title holder died in Japan.

Bob Weighton, who is 111 years old, said his new status was “just one of those things”.

The Hampshire resident said: “I don’t really feel satisfied because it means someone else has died.”

“It is not something I ever intended, wanted or worked for but it is just one of those facts of life.”

Chitetsu Watanabe died at the weekend, just days after collecting his Guinness World Record certificate for being the world’s oldest man.
