                 </strong>
                 The loss came after a whole lot of drama off the pitch. Before the match, FIFA rejected Belgium’s appeal of its decision to permit US striker Folarin Balogun to play. The appeal questioned FIFA’s reversal of a suspension after President Trump asked FIFA President Gianni Infantino to review the red card. European soccer’s governing body, UEFA, called FIFA’s decision “unprecedented, incomprehensible and unjustifiable.” Meanwhile, Spain beat Portugal, bringing an end to what Cristiano Ronaldo said will be his last World Cup.

                  Throngs of mourners gathered for Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
                 </strong>
                 The body of the country’s former supreme leader of 37 years, who was killed at the beginning of US and Israel attacks against Iran in February, was carried through Tehran yesterday. Hundreds of thousands of mourners

                 there as part of a the government’s carefully orchestrated multiday funeral that began last week. The body will also be taken to other Iranian and Iraqi cities. Peace talks between the US and Iran have been halted until after the funeral, but the ceremony carries political weight: Crowds of mourners chanted “Death to America.” Iran also fired on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz yesterday, testing the fragile ceasefire.

                  AI “actor” Tilly Norwood will star in a movie.

                 Unlike many human performers whose auditions don’t even help them land better catering gigs, the controversial “actor” has booked her first

It will be set in “the Tillyverse,” a digital world where the “actor” will portray (and this is a stretch) an AI with no real body or lived experience in a “coming-of-age story infused with existential AI chaos.”
