Manager surprised by City’s level after European exit
Mikel Arteta defends decision to play Kepa Arrizabalaga
A delighted Pep Guardiola admitted disbelief at Manchester City’s second-half dismantling of Arsenal in which Nico O’Reilly’s double claimed the Carabao Cup at Wembley.
With Sunday’s’s final goalless at half-time, O’Reilly’s headers in the 60th and 64th minutes gave City the season’s first trophy, a fifth League Cup of Guardiola’s tenure and the 16th major honour overall of his decade in charge.

The Socialist Emmanuel Grégoire was on track to be elected mayor of Paris on Sunday night, roundly beating the former rightwing minister Rachida Dati, early projections showed.
Grégoire, a Socialist MP with a long track record at city hall, was running for a united left including the Greens. He was projected to have won with about 53%. This would mark a clear win against Dati, who served in government under Emmanuel Macron and Nicolas Sarkozy and had sought to win the French capital for the right after 25 years governed by the left.

When the first Manchester City goal went in, with the Wembley clock on 60 minutes, Pep Guardiola’s response was to attack a pitchside hoarding – but to do even this in a very Pep kind of way, methodically, relentlessly trousers billowing, brown lace-ups whirring in perfect concert, like an uncle doing the running man at a wedding.
When the second goal was scored four minutes later, the trophy-clincher, and Nico O’Reilly’s second of the afternoon, Guardiola was up and off down the touchline, bounding, star jumping, revolving his arms.

Apple appears to have temporarily prevented apps, including Replit and Vibecode, from pushing new updates. Apple seems bothered by how apps like Replit present vibe-coded apps in a web view within the original app. This process virtually allows the app to become something else. And the new app isn't distributed via the App Store, but it still runs on the user's device... [S]uch apps would also bypass the App Store Review process that ensures that apps are safe to use and meet Apple's design and performance standards...
According to the publication (via MacRumors), Apple was close to approving pending updates for such apps if they changed how they work. For instance, Replit would get the green light if its developers configure the app to open vibe-coded apps in an external browser rather than the in-app web view.
Vibecode is also close to being approved if it removes features, such as the ability to develop apps specifically for the App Store.
