Former Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone was arrested in Brazil late on Wednesday for illegally carrying a gun while boarding a private plane to Switzerland, local police said. The Brazilian police found an undocumented LW Seecamp .32 gun in Ecclestone’s luggage during an X-ray screening, police said in a statement, adding that he was then arrested and taken to a facility at Viracopos airport in Campinas. Ecclestone acknowledged owning the gun, but said he was unaware it was in his luggage at the time, police said. The Briton paid bail and was freed to travel to Switzerland. Ecclestone, 91, is married to Brazilian-born Fabiana Ecclestone, an FIA vice-president and member of the World Motor Sport Council. They attended several events in the South American country in May, including a local Stock Car race in the countryside near Sao Paulo and a meeting with triple world champion Nelson Piquet in Brasilia.

‘Who needs Haaland?’ – New Man City star Julian Alvarez makes history with SIX goals in match breaking 121-year record
MANCHESTER CITY fans have joked why did they sign Erling Haaland after incoming striker Julian Alvarez scored a DOUBLE hat-trick for River Plate. The Argentine forward, 22, agreed a deal to join the Citizens in January , with the player remaining on loan at River until the summer. Alvarez has earned a reputation of being a lethal marksman in South America having banged in 24 goals last season. And he has found the back of the net 14 times from 17 games in all competitions this term - with SIX of those strikes coming on Wednesday night. The 2021 Copa America champion created club history when he scored a double hat-trick in their 8-1 Copa Libertadores group stage win against Alianza Lima. Alvarez scored three goals in either half against the Peruvian outfit to become the first player in River's 121-year existence to score that many times in a single match.
