Enzo Maresca didn’t hold back after Chelsea’s chaotic Carabao Cup win over Wolves, labelling Liam Delap’s dismissal “very stupid” and urging his young team to “grow up.” Chelsea led 3-0 at half-time thanks to goals from Andrey Santos, Tyrique George, and Estêvão, but Wolves fought back after the break through Tolu Arokodare and a David Møller Wolfe brace, making it a nervy finish before Jamie Gittens sealed a 4-3 victory. Delap, returning from injury, was sent off after two rash challenges in seven minutes — a decision that infuriated Maresca. “After the first yellow, I told him four or five…

Surging iPhone demand lifted Apple’s revenue during the three months ending in September, closing its fiscal year with record profits.

Energized by these results, Apple earned $27.5 billion (€23.8bn), nearly doubling its profit from a year earlier. Apple’s shares climbed 2% in…

Negotiations behind the scenes have…

A tiny spider thought extinct in the UK has been found again on the Isle of Wight, thrilling conservationists. The Aulonia albimana, now nicknamed the white-knuckled wolf spider for its pale leg joints, was rediscovered at the National Trust’s Newtown nature reserve, a site reachable only by boat.
