RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) -- Sebastian Brendel from Germany snatched a gold medal in the men's canoe single 1000m of canoe sprint competition in the 2016 Olympic Games in 3 minutes and 56.926 seconds here on Tuesday.


Isaquias Queiroz dos Santos from Brazil and Serghei Tarnovschi from Republic of Moldova took silver and bronze, respectively in 3:58.529 and 4:00.852.




LOUIS van Gaal has always said it could get worse before it gets better at Manchester United.


He couldn’t have thought it would get this bad.


Barely two months ago Ecco Shoes UK Sale , a jubilant van Gaal was leaping out of his seat and high-fiving his Netherlands players as he masterminded a 5-1 thrashing of Spain at the World Cup in Brazil.


Compare that to the glum, stony-faced figure of van Gaal who remained glued to his seat during United’s humiliating 0-4 loss to third-tier club MK Dons in the second round of the League Cup on Tuesday.


To the right of him, Ryan Giggs — a club great who is now van Gaal’s assistant coach — buried his face in his hands.


Even though United fielded a virtual reserve team, albeit one containing established internationals like Javier Hernandez, Danny Welbeck and Shinji Kagawa ECCO Illinois Monk Strap Black UK , it was one of the most embarrassing results in the history of England’s biggest club.


Following on from a winless start in the English Premier League after two games of van Gaal’s tenure, serious doubts are already being raised about the Dutchman’s use of the 3-5-2 formation and the lack of depth in his squad, especially in defense.


“The process needs time,” van Gaal said. “We know exactly what we are doing.”


Time is something United doesn’t have.


David Moyes only lasted 10 months last season before being fired, and van Gaal has already virtually written off United’s chances of winning the Premier League in this second straight year of transition at Old Trafford.


With no European football this season ECCO Mens Cool 2.0 Leather Gtx Black UK , the FA Cup remains the only genuine opportunity for silverware — and it is still only August.


The optimism of preseason, when United won six straight games under van Gaal, including victories over Real Madrid and Liverpool, has disappeared.


Van Gaal is now left hoping a spending spree of about 130 million pounds (US$215 million), capped by the club-record signing of Angel Di Maria for US$99 million hours before the MK Dons game ECCO Collin Classic Tie Camel UK , pays off.


Van Gaal has played three at the back in his time at United but his defenders look uncomfortable in that formation and the wing backs — so crucial in a 3-5-2 — utilized by the Dutchman have no experience in that position. Di Maria’s arrival will not just introduce pace and fresh ideas into the team’s midfield, it might also mean United changing tactics.


With less than a week before the transfer window shuts, the loss again highlighted the need for defensive reinforcements. Left back Luke Shaw and left-sided defender Marcos Rojo have joined but United appears to still require an experienced center back.


The defending was awful against MK Dons, with Jonny Evans — a regular in recent seasons — to blame for the first goal.


Van Gaal didn’t escape blame, either ECCO Men's Leather Slip On Black UK , with critics questioning why he felt the need to rest star players like Wayne Rooney, Robin van Persie and Juan Mata when United isn’t in Europe this season.


With only the league to concentrate on until January, the loss may boost United’s chances of getting back in the top four and returning to the Champions League.


For the time being, though, the embarrassment remains acute.


“I’m not shocked because I know what can happen ECCO Johannesburg Slip On Black UK ,” Van Gaal said. “A new team is not built in one month.”

TOKYO, Aug. 19 (Xinhua) -- The Nikkei stock index rose for a seventh straight day Tuesday, gaining 0.83 percent as the yen's retreat and Wall Street's solid performance overnight galvanized investor sentiment and easing concerns over the situation in Ukraine kept investors from selling.


The benchmark Nikkei 225 index added 127.19 points to close at 15,449.79, while the broader Topix index of all first-section issues gained 0.71 percent ECCO Classic Moc 2.0 Black UK , or 9.03 points, to finish at 1,280.29.


Market players on Tuesday said the yen's weakness helped underpin the overall market and lift the market mood amid a lack of other immediate catalysts.


In currency markets, the U.S. dollar fetched 102.61 yen, rising from 102.57 yen logged in New York and 102.32 yen booked in Tokyo earlier Monday. A weaker yen is a boon for exporters who see overseas profit yields augment when repatriated and overall competitiveness enhanced.


But local traders said that while the current geopolitical situations in Ukraine and Iraq among others were still being closely eyed by the market ECCO Mens Soft 7 Perf Tie Coffee UK , easing tensions particularly in Ukraine helped calm jitters.


Multinational issues that had caused the delay of a convoy of around 300 trucks that Moscow is delivering to Ukraine with humanitarian aid have been resolved, with Moscow coordinating with the Ukrainian side and the International Committee of the Red Cross.


But it remains to be seen how quickly the convoy will be deployed, following a bus full of refugees being hit by a missile near the city of Luhansk.


"Once geopolitical risks are taken away, investors will return their focus to fundamentals. Japanese stocks are going strong on the back of strong appetite from domestic investors," said Yusuke Kuwayama ECCO Mens Soft 7 Slip On Black UK , a portfolio manager at Tokio Marine & Nichido Fire Insurance Co.


Other analysts said that more cues would be needed to test the market's upper side and some investors were eyeing the U.S. Federal Reserve's meeting later this week for hints about future interest rate moves.


Domestically, the Government Pension Investment Fund's plans to buy more stock is being eyed carefully as are moves by the Finance Ministry and the Bank of Japan following a slew of te.
