"body": "Mamelodi Sundowns celebrate winning the CAF Champions League in Rabat\n\nMidfielder Teboho Mokoena and goalkeeper Ronwen Williams played key roles as Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa drew 1-1 at FAR Rabat of Morocco on Sunday to win the CAF Champions League.\n\nSundowns won the final 2-1 on aggregate after building a 1-0 lead in the first leg in Pretoria last weekend. The South Africans also won the premier African club competition in 2016.\n\nMokoena equalised in Rabat during first-half added time after Mohamed Hrimat had put FAR ahead from the penalty spot.\n\nBut when FAR were awarded a second penalty on 77 minutes, Williams parried the attempt from Hrimat, triggering an exodus from the stadium by thousands of Moroccan supporters.\n\nBoth clubs made one change from the first leg with fit Senegalese centre-back Fallou Mendy back for FAR and full-back Divine Lunga replacing the injured Aubrey Modiba for Sundowns.\n\nDeafening noise greeted the kick-off in front of a near-capacity 60,000 crowd and the Somali referee yellow-carded Moroccan Marouane Louadni and Colombian Brayan Leon within four minutes.\n\nLunga was then lucky to escape being sanctioned after a late tackle on Hrimat as FAR continually threatened down the flanks.\n\nHrimat blazed wide after 16 minutes from a pull-back when he should at least have hit the target and the FAR captain then became the third player to be cautioned.\n\nSlick Sundowns passing created a half-chance and Tashreeq Matthews was not far off target with a drive from outside the box.\n\nThe second-leg stalemate was broken on 40 minutes when Lunga fouled Reda Slim and Hrimat sent Williams the wrong way from the spot kick to bring the clubs level on aggregate.\n\nBut after FAR goalkeeper Ahmed Tagnaouti saved a weak close-range stab from Leon, Sundowns drew level on the night seven minutes into added time.\n\nA Leon cross and a Matthews back-heel set up the unmarked Mokoena inside the box and he unleashed a powerful shot that gave the FAR shot-stopper no chance.\n\nWith away goals counting double, the Moroccans had to score at least two more goals to become the first champions from Morocco since Wydad Casablanca lifted the trophy in 2022.\n\nThe yellow card count rose to six early in the second half with Abdelfettah Hadraf the fourth FAR player into the book and Jayden Adams the second from Sundowns.\n\nFAR's restless crowd began whistling as their team struggled to create further opportunities.\n\nThat frustration increased when Williams atoned for a foul on Youssef El Fahli by parrying the resultant Hrimat penalty at the expense of a corner.\n\nHrimat opted to place the ball into the right corner, as he did with his successful spot kick in the first half, but Williams stretched out his left arm to push the ball over the crossbar.\n\nSundowns substitute Lebo Mothiba had the ball in the net during added time, but was ruled offside.",

"body": "Novak Djokovic came from a set down to beat Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard 5-7, 7-5, 6-1, 6-4 and book his spot in the second round of the French Open on Sunday.\n\nThe 24-time major champion Djokovic is seeking to win a fourth Roland Garros crown, which would send him beyond Margaret Court as the player with the most Grand Slam titles in the history of the sport.\n\n\"His service is practically impossible to see... Only once or twice in my career (have I seen a serve like it),\" Djokovic said on-court of his big-serving opponent.\n\nIt was a first victory on the red dirt of the season for the 39-year-old after he skipped the vast majority of the clay-court swing due to a shoulder issue.\n\nDjokovic showed his rustiness by blinking first in the opening set as Mpetshi Perricard got the Parisian crowd on their feet with a break of serve in the 11th game, before holding comfortably to get his nose in front.\n\nDjokovic managed to engineer his first two break points of the match in the sixth game of the second frame but failed to convert as the 22-year-old roared back to ensure the set stayed level at 3-3.\n\nBut the Serb, one of tennis' all-time great returners, was starting to get the measure of the 2.01-metre Mpetshi Perricard's bullet serve and eventually got the break he so desperately craved in the 12th game of the second set to level the match.\n\nWhen Mpetshi Perricard sent wide a stretched forehand after chasing down a Djokovic drop shot, it was the first break point converted by the former world number one out of 10 across the set.\n\nWith his eye now firmly in, Djokovic wasted no time in getting ahead in the third frame as he broke the former world number 29 in the second game to race into a 3-0 lead.\n\nThe unrelenting Djokovic then won three of the next four games to claim a rapid-fire third set.\n\nThe pair exchanged breaks right at the start of the fourth set before the match settled back into its earlier ebb and flow.\n\nDjokovic struck again to get 4-3 ahead, this time serving out to book his spot in the round of 64, where he will face another Frenchman, Valentin Royer.",

"body": "AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri watched his side drop out of the Champions League places with a 2-1 defeat at home to Cagliari\n\nComo qualified for the Champions League for the first time in their history on Sunday, the lakeside club being joined by Roma in Serie A's top four as AC Milan imploded in a 2-1 defeat by Cagliari.\n\nMilan's loss left the seven-time kings of Europe out of the top four after a calamitous end to the season.\n\nJuventus also missed out on an eventful final day marred by fan violence that caused their derby at Torino to be delayed by more than an hour.\n\nComo's 4-1 win at Cremonese, who drop down to Serie B, and Milan falling to a shock home defeat was enough for Cesc Fabregas's side to cap their incredible rise from the lower leagues to Europe's top table.\n\nComo will finish the season fourth, two points behind Roma whose 2-0 win at already-relegated Verona ensured third place and an end to their long absence from the Champions League.\n\nRoma have not played in Europe's elite club competition since being knocked out by Porto in the last 16 in 2019, and a top-four finish came following goals from in-form Donyell Malen and Stephan El Shaarawy.\n\nMalen tapped in Paulo Dybala's brilliant low cross which he whipped in after the Netherlands striker's penalty was saved by Lorenzo Montipo, while El Shaarawy sealed the deal in stoppage time of his last match for the club.\n\nBut even that achievement pales into insignificance compared to Como, who have never played in European competition in their history and were in the third tier of Italian football when acquired by tobacco giant Djarum in 2019.\n\nThose three results also meant that Juventus will play in the Europa League next season, with the damage done in last weekend's home loss to Fiorentina.\n\nJuve's match at Torino kicked off over an hour late for \"public safety\" after one of the Turin giants' fans was admitted to hospital following pre-match clashes with rival supporters.\n\nA win for Luciano Spalletti's side would mean a fifth-placed finish, with Milan, whose livid fans protested loudly against owners RedBird before, during and after a humiliating defeat, dropping to sixth.\n\nMilan started the day in third and looked set to reach the Champions League when Alexis Saelemaekers scored in the second minute.\n\nBut tap-ins in each half from Gennaro Borrelli and Juan Rodriguez left Milan out of the top four and back in crisis.\n\nMilan's form has been dismal since beating champions Inter Milan over two months ago, a derby triumph which looked to have reopened the Scudetto race.\n\nInstead a paltry 10 points from their final 10 matches left Milan, and RedBird, facing a summer which is likely to be full of changes, even if owner Gerry Cardinale seems to have faith with coach Massimiliano Allegri.\n\nNapoli fans said goodbye to Antonio Conte during an uneventful 1-0 win over Udinese which gave their team a final position of second, 11 points behind new champions Inter at the end of the campaign.\n\nRasmus Hojlund, now a permanent signing after Napoli qualified for the Champions League last weekend, rattled in his 16th goal of a successful first season in Italy.\n\nHowever it will be a summer of changes in southern Italy with Bologna's Vincenzo Italiano the man most cited as Conte's replacement.\n\n\"It's been an honour, really special to coach Napoli... It's been two great seasons, an exceptional experience,\" said Conte, who is tipped to take charge of the national team.\n\nNapoli's owner Aurelio De Laurentiis has rejected a $2 billion offer to acquire the club from a group of investors led by Underdog Global Partners.\n\nDe Laurentiis has enjoyed frequently tense relations with Napoli fans despite being the man who saved the club from bankruptcy in 2004, and who ended a 33-year wait for a league title.\n\nThat 2023 Scudetto, one of the biggest stories of the century in European football, was followed up by another last season under Conte who after the match did a lap of the pitch to bid farewell.",

"title": "Sweden's Rosenqvist wins closest-ever Indy 500",
"body": "Sweden's Felix Rosenqvist won a last-lap shootout to capture the 110th Indianapolis 500 on Sunday by 0.0233 seconds, the closest finish in race history.\n\nRosenqvist trailed into the final straightaway but surged past American runner-up David Malukas on the outside just before the finish line to win after 200 laps at the famed 2.5-mile (4km) Indianapolis Motor Speedway oval.\n\n\"I think we were the best car today. I felt like in all situations we kind of had it under control,\" Rosenqvist said.\n\n\"Today there was something more. We just had something extra. It felt really good. Everything was rolling so well.\"\n\nThe 34-year old Swede took his only prior IndyCar triumph in 2020 at Road America, but his second victory in 120 career series starts was one for the ages.\n\n\"Unreal. I still don't believe it,\" Rosenqvist said. \"I don't know what to say. What a car. What a car. Massive thanks to the team.\"\n\nA fuel strategy run allowed Rosenqvist to grab the lead by passing Mexico's Pato O'Ward on the backstretch with 14 laps remaining.\n\nA fiery crash into the outer wall by Brazilian rookie Caio Collet with eight laps to go led to a red flag that halted the race and set up a restart with four laps remaining and Rosenqvist ahead of O'Ward, New Zealand's Marcus Armstrong and Malukas.\n\nArmstrong went outside to seize the lead with Malukas second and Rosenqvist third but German rookie Mick Schumacher's car struck the outer wall to bring out a final caution flag.\n\nThat set up a last lap restart and a one-lap charge for the title, with Malukas passing on the outside in turn one to seize the lead only to have Rosenqvist overtake him at the line with New Zealand's Scott McLaughln third.\n\n\"I don't know what else we could have done,\" a heartbroken and tearful Malukas said, his voice cracking with emotion. \"We were the fastest car that whole race.\n\n\"I gave it 150 percent. I almost crashed this damn car every lap. And we still end up with a P2. I don't know, man, I don't know what else I can give.\n\n\"I can't believe it. So close. This place man. We're going to come back again. We're going to bring everything. We're going to give it 160 percent next time.\"\n\nThe last of a one-race record 70 Indy 500 lead changes also broke the old closest finish mark of 0.043sec from 1992, when Al Unser Jr. edged Scott Goodyear.\n\nRosenqvist compared the reality to his Indy 500 dreams, saying, \"It's not what you think but even better.\"\n\nFor all his efforts to save fuel, it nearly didn't happen.\n\n\"That last yellow didn't help us but it kind of worked out the right way when I got back to third and just had a flat out lap on the high line,\" Rosenqvist said of the finish.\n\n\"It was the coolest way you can finish and win an Indy 500.\"\n\nBefore that, his moves worked out well, seizing the late lead with O'Ward nursing limited fuel.\n\n\"It was the perfect situation for us before that. Pato was struggling with fuel and we were rich to the end,\" Rosenqvist said.\n\n\"At some point we were going to pass him and just hopefully cruise to the win -- but then everything flipped upside down.\"\n\nThe last restart forced him back into chase mode and that turned out to be successful.\n\n\"You just have to reload,\" said Rosenqvist. \"I was a little negative at first. But then you have to look forward. When I got back to third I felt like I was hunting instead of being hunted.\"\n\nSpain's Alex Palou, the pole sitter and 2025 Indy 500 winner, was seventh.\n\nA crash on lap 18 ended the race early for Britain's Katherine Legge, who hoped to complete both the Indy 500 and NASCAR Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte on the same day.\n\nShe still planned to race the later event after being unharmed when she slammed into the inner wall exited turn two avoiding the crashed car of Ryan Hunter-Reay.\n\n\"I'm just gutted more than anything,\" Legge said. \"I had to abort mission and go low and didn't quite make it.\"",

"body": "AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri watched his side drop out of the Champions League places with a 2-1 defeat at home to Cagliari\n\nComo qualified for the Champions League for the first time in their history on Sunday, the lakeside club being joined by Roma in the top four as giants AC Milan and Juve missed out on an eventful final day marred by fan violence.\n\nComo's 4-1 win at Cremonese, who drop down to Serie B, and AC Milan falling to a shock 2-1 home defeat to Cagliari was enough for Cesc Fabregas's side to cap their incredible rise from lower leagues to Europe's top table.\n\nComo will finish the season fourth, two points behind Roma whose 2-0 win at already-relegated Verona ensured third place and an end to their long absence from the Champions League.\n\nRoma have not played in Europe's elite club competition since being knocked out by Porto in the last 16 in 2019, and a top-four finish is a huge success for coach Gian Piero Gasperini and the American Friedkin family who own the club.\n\nBut even that achievement pales into insignificance compared to Como, who have never played in European competition in their history and were in the third tier of Italian football when acquired by tobacco giant Djarum in 2019.\n\nThose three results also meant that Juventus will play in the Europa League next season regardless of how their delayed derby at Torino finishes.\n\nJuve's match kicked off over an hour late for \"public safety\" after one of the Turin giants' fans was admitted to hospital following pre-match clashes with rival supporters.\n\nDusan Vlahovic gave Juve the lead in the 24th minute, and a win for Luciano Spalletti's side would mean a fifth-placed finish, with Milan, whose livid fans protested loudly against owners RedBird before, during and after a humiliating defeat, dropping to sixth.\n\nMilan started the day in third and looked set to reach the Champions League when Alexis Saelemaekers scored in the second minute.\n\nBut tap-ins in each half from Gennaro Borrelli and Juan Rodriguez left Milan out of the top four and back in another of a series of crises.",

"body": "Dani Parejo (2nd L) played his last game for Villarreal as they romped to a comfortable win over Atletico Madrid to finish third\n\nVillarreal claimed third place in La Liga with an emphatic 5-1 win over Atletico Madrid, who finished fourth, in the final match of the Spanish season.\n\nIt was Marcelino Garcia Toral's last in charge of the Yellow Submarine, and he guided them to a comfortable victory against an uninterested Atletico side.\n\nFinishing third is Villarreal's highest placement in La Liga for 13 years.\n\nVillarreal captain Dani Parejo opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 29th minute in what was also his final match for the club.\n\nIt sparked a burst of several goals before half-time, with Ayoze Perez firing home three minutes later.\n\nGeorges Mikautadze tucked away the third after Perez found him after holding the ball up on a break, with Clement Lenglet lead-footed and unable to stop the Georgian forward.\n\nMarc Pubill pulled one back with a header from Antoine Griezmann's corner, on the French forward's final Atletico appearance before his switch to MLS side Orlando City.\n\nIt proved brief respite for Atletico, as Pape Gueye smashed into the top corner from outside the area for Villarreal's fourth before the break.\n\nPerez smashed home for Villarreal early in the second half as the Yellow Submarine kept the goals flowing.\n\nParejo, who joined the club in 2020, bid an emotional goodbye to the home fans as he was substituted.\n\n\"It's been six marvellous years of my life,\" Parejo told Movistar. \"I am proud, happy with my work, I gave everything to this club.\"\n\nIt was Atletico coach Diego Simeone's 800th match at the helm since he took over in 2011, but not one he will remember fondly.\n\nAtletico, who lost in the Copa del Rey final and the Champions League semi-finals, end the season empty-handed.\n\n\"This can't happen to us, we have to repair it next season, we can't let in that many goals,\" said Atletico skipper Koke.\n\n\"We've got a bitter taste left in the mouth... (cup disappointments) and a disaster in La Liga, we have to be higher up.\"",

"title": "Ready, set, dope: Enhanced Games to begin in Las Vegas",
"body": "The Enhanced Games are taking place at a purpose-built $50 million arena in a Las Vegas casino parking lot, a structure to be dismantled hours after the final race\n\nJuiced-up athletes gathered in Las Vegas on Sunday for the first-ever Enhanced Games, where organizers predict world records will be unofficially \"beaten\" by competitors using performance-enhancing drugs that have sparked health concerns.\n\nAround 40 sprinters, swimmers and weightlifters have spent the past four months in Abu Dhabi taking combinations of testosterone, human growth hormone, peptides and anabolic steroids -- all banned by events like the Olympics.\n\nThe event, starting at 3.35pm (2235 GMT) and streaming on YouTube and Roku, has been denounced by athletics governing bodies and anti-doping agencies as dangerous and against the spirit of sport.\n\nBut participants, lured by prize money of up to $1 million for beating world records, will include Olympic medallist swimmers James Magnussen, Cody Miller and Ben Proud, who have all taken drugs.\n\nHafthor \"Thor\" Bjornsson, best known for playing \"The Mountain\" in \"Game of Thrones,\" will try to break his own deadlift record.\n\nFormer 100m sprint champion Fred Kerley will be one of the few athletes competing without drugs at the event.\n\nMax Martin, chief executive officer and co-founder, has predicted multiple world records will be \"beaten,\" though the feats will not be officially recognized.\n\nWeightlifters Beatriz Piron and Arley Mendez surpassed world records in training, he told a press conference on the eve of the event.\n\n\"Hopefully they'll be able to do it tomorrow as well, and then we'll see a few more,\" said Martin.\n\nSwimmers will also be allowed to wear the types of \"supersuits\" that led to many world records falling around the 2008 Beijing Olympics, but were subsequently prohibited.\n\nChief sporting officer Rick Adams said that he respects that \"specific international organizations\" will not accept any records set on Sunday, even if they are broken by clean athletes like Kerley.\n\n\"But it is uncontroverted that if one of our 50m freestyle... moves through that water in less than 20.88 seconds, they have moved through that water faster than any other human being in history,\" he said, referring to Cam McEvoy's official record.\n\nThe Enhanced Games are taking place at a purpose-built $50 million arena in a Las Vegas casino parking lot, a structure to be dismantled hours after the final race.\n\nIn a marriage of sports, biohacking, politics and entertainment, investors including billionaire Peter Thiel are rumored to be attending, while rock band The Killers will play a closing set. Donald Trump Jr is among the event's investors.\n\nHealth experts warn that several of the substances could risk \"life-shortening and fatal consequences,\" including heart, liver and kidney issues, as so little is known about their long-term effects.\n\nBut Enhanced Games officials say all medications are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration, and no expense had been spared on hiring top medical experts.\n\nEmergency officials will be standing by in case something goes wrong.\n\n\"I'm reasonably confident nothing will happen,\" said chief medical officer Guido Pieles.\n\nPieles described the risk of the medications as \"clearly there\" but \"really manageable.\"\n\nHis team has published the percentage of athletes taking each substance, with Martin vowing that \"transparency is core to our DNA.\"\n\nYet athletes said that they are not able to disclose the specific combinations each has taken.\n\n\"The reason for that is because actually it doesn't matter,\" Martin told AFP, noting that combinations are tailored to each athlete.\n\nAlso, parent company Enhanced -- which sells many of the substances being taken by its athletes to the public -- does not want to \"advertise for certain protocols to create imitation potential,\" said Martin.",

"body": "Key quotes from the first day of the French Open at Roland Garros on Sunday:\n\n\"I didn't speak with (my family) on the phone yet, but I obviously texted, and most of my friends and most of the people who have -- because the majority of Kyiv suffered from something like this this morning, and a lot of my friends are just trying to sleep longer, just trying to recover, because it was half of the night, it was happening throughout, like, four hours.\n\n\"They are just resting, and, you know, just trying to recover... It's good that it's Sunday today so everyone can just stay home and spend the time with their loved ones.\"\n\n-- Marta Kostyuk on the massive bombardment carried out by Russia on the Ukrainian capital city of Kyiv that killed four people.\n\n\"Well, sometimes I look at Sandra (Zaniewska, her coach), and she shows me that I should go underarm because it's a good moment to do it, and I agree it was a good moment to do it. I think if you can do it, why not use it?\"\n\n-- Kostyuk on choosing when to attempt an underarm serve.\n\n\"That's why Europeans are probably better on clay than Americans or Australians, because that's what we grew up on. It's the more natural move for us. That's how we move on a tennis court. We move through sliding. We move through the slippery surface better, because we're used to it. As a kid, you know, nobody can really teach you how to slide. You do it instinctively at some point and naturally at some point.\"\n\n-- Alexander Zverev on what sets European players apart from others when it comes to moving around a clay court.\n\n\"I think my case is a little bit different because I'm reaching my peak at 36, which I don't think is the case of the other guys. They were at their peak before, but even though the level that they are showing on court is simply unbelievable. Also, we had some examples before from the women's side that they were getting back after pregnancy and stuff, which everybody knows that it is extremely hard to do that.\"\n\n-- Marco Trungelliti on being part of a group of older players enjoying success in 2026.\n\n\"I'm super excited to play with her. I think we can do really well. She's obviously an incredible player, and we've played doubles once before. She's unbelievable at the net and super solid from the back, great serve, great return. So I think that we can do well, and I'm excited.\"\n\n-- Hailey Baptiste on looking forward to playing in the doubles alongside 45-year-old tennis legend Venus Williams.",

Malheureusement, la réalité rappelle presque systématiquement qu'il s'agit d'une activité dangereuse, même pour un conducteur expérimenté.\n\nLors de l'après-midi, dimanche, le CGDIS a recensé pas moins de quatre blessés. Un premier accident a eu lieu vers 14h30, sur la RN27, entre Bockholtzermillen et Heiderscheidergrund. Un motard a chuté et a été blessé. Les pompiers de Goesdorf et l'ambulance ont été mobilisés.\n\nMais l'accident le plus impressionnant s'est déroulé dans le nord du Luxembourg. Six motards sont tombés simultanément, vers 15h20, sur le CR331, entre Nocher et Kautenbach. Les secours ont dû prendre en charge trois blessés. Les pompiers de Kiischpelt et de Wiltz étaient sur place, tout comme deux ambulances et le Samu.\n\nLa journée a été chargée pour le CGDIS car des accidents de voiture ont également fait des blessés. Deux collisions ont eu lieu, peu après 12h, d'abord à Wasserbillig, route de Luxembourg, puis sur le CR148, entre Ellange et Welfrange. Le premier accident a fait un blessé, le deuxième deux.",

"title": "Senegal parliament speaker steps down in political crisis",
"body": "Discord has grown between Senegal's now-dismissed Prime Minister Ousmane Sonko (L) and President Bassirou Diomaye Faye (R) pictured during an 2025 event in Dakar\n\nThe speaker of Senegal's parliament said Sunday he was resigning, two days after his close ally was fired as prime minister, deepening a political crisis in the debt-laden West African country.\n\nThe move by speaker El Malick Ndiaye clears the way for sacked premier Ousmane Sonko to run for the post of head of parliament, where his Pastef party holds a strong majority, in a challenge to President Bassirou Diomaye Faye.\n\nDeputies have been summoned to a full session of the assembly on Tuesday morning to reinstate Sonko as a member of parliament and vote for a new speaker, said an official document published late Sunday.\n\nThat could further complicate reform efforts by Faye, who sacked his former ally Sonko on Friday after months of tensions.\n\nFaye owed his presidency in large part to Sonko, who would almost certainly have taken the top job had he not been barred from running in the last presidential election due to a defamation conviction.\n\nTheir Pastef party comfortably won the 2024 elections on a promise of a profound political shake-up, vowing to fight corruption and inheriting an economy mired in debt.\n\nSonko had generated a passionate following among Senegal's disaffected youth ahead of the 2024 presidential election. Despite Sonko's popular appeal however, Faye held all the real power as president.\n\nBut in recent months, relations had soured between Faye and his one-time mentor. And as the discord between the president and prime minister became increasingly public, their governing alliance crumbled.\n\nSonko had become vocal in his criticism of his former protege, accusing Faye of a \"failure of leadership\" for not backing him against his critics.\n\nHe also regularly denounced what he said was the slow pace of legal action for corruption against senior figures in the previous government of former president Macky Sall.\n\nThe two also disagreed on the crucial question of how to tackle Senegal's high debt.\n\nHours after Sonko's dismissal, hundreds of his supporters gathered outside his Dakar home to show their support for him -- and it is Sonko who is the uncontested leader of Pastef, with its large parliamentary majority.\n\nSonko's departure as premier raised the question of how Faye can governor the country when he cannot be assured of the support of the ruling party.\n\n\"One can imagine that it is going to be complicated to cohabit with this majority of the Pastef party in the Assembly,\" said Babacar Ndiaye, research director of the West African Think Tank (WATHI).\n\nFaye has to name another prime minister to replace Sonko -- and that choice will have to be approved by parliament within three months of his nomination, said Ndiaye.\n\n\"If the deputies decide to table a motion of censure or no confidence, they are capable of doing so,\" he added.\n\nThe president cannot dissolve parliament itself until November -- two years after the last parliamentary election.\n\nAnd a reform of the electoral code approved by parliament a few weeks ago means that Sonko is now eligible to run for the presidency.\n\nThat raises the possibility that the two former political allies might at some point run against each other for the top job.",
