Liverpool busca seguir de líder en el Boxing Day

Liverpool aims to stay on top on Boxing Day

Omar Rodríguez / Soccer / en / December 26, 2024

Liverpool will face Leicester City in a match to maintain their relatively comfortable lead in the Premier League standings, with the goal of closing the year as league leaders. One of the most traditional days in English football is here: Boxing Day in the Premier League. It’s a day full of matches that serves as the perfect excuse to continue the holiday festivities and reminds us that this season is about sharing joy with everyone. With matches scheduled every December 26 since 1860, the tradition of sharing football gives us a game that, on paper, looks highly enticing: Liverpool vs. Leicester City. The current Premier League leaders are focused on retaining their spot at the top of the table to end the year in first place. This time, the “Reds” will host the “Foxes” in a match that, at first glance, favors the home team. Liverpool is currently one of the best teams in Europe and undoubtedly the best in England at the moment. With one of the league’s strongest offenses, goals are almost guaranteed at Anfield. However, it’s worth noting that Arne Slot’s squad also boasts one of the two best defenses this season, which will surely pose a tough challenge for the visitors. On Leicester’s side, the newly promoted team hasn’t enjoyed a triumphant return to England’s top tier. In stark contrast to their opponents, they have one of the league’s weakest defenses and offenses and sit just above the relegation zone. The match is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. Central Mexico time.

EXTREME TESTING AND IMPECCABLE PREPARATION New year, new challenges! 🌟 With the launch of the Nissan Kicks 2025, the Japanese brand proves that innovation knows no limits. From frosty mornings to testing under the most extreme conditions, the development of this SUV is a story of creativity, precision, and an unwavering commitment to quality. A JOURNEY THAT BEGAN YEARS AGO 🚀🌍 The process started long before the first Kicks rolled off the assembly line in Aguascalientes, Mexico. Research and Development teams, alongside Customer Satisfaction experts, collaborated from Japan to North America to ensure every detail was flawless. In 2022, engineers transformed a European Nissan Juke into a rolling laboratory, outfitting it with early prototypes of the Kicks’ chassis, seats, and electronics. This ingenious step condensed years of testing into a single, accelerated phase. 🛠️🔧 CANADA: THE WINTER TESTING GROUNDS 🥶🌨️ In late 2023, Canada became the epicenter of testing with the “Project North” initiative. Here, the team braved extreme cold to evaluate the Kicks 2025’s intelligent all-wheel drive system. 💨🚘 Sub-zero temperatures provided the perfect setting to test the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system. During these tests, team members faced the winter rigor with minimal clothing and no coffee, analyzing how the vehicle warmed 10 key parts of the human body. ❄️🔥 DETAILS THAT MAKE THE DIFFERENCE 📋🔍 Meticulous documentation was key at every stage. From small observations, like hot air escaping from a turned-off defroster, to adjustments in comfort systems, everything was reviewed and resolved at record speed. “Our job is to detect and correct issues before the customer notices them,” said Alex Bouckley, head of testing in Quebec. Every detail, from the wireless charger’s performance to the menu design on the screen, underwent thorough scrutiny. 📑✅ A ONE-OF-A-KIND EXPERIENCE 🌟🏆 With objective data collected every 10 seconds and direct comparisons with competitors’ vehicles, the Nissan Kicks 2025 promises to exceed consumer expectations. “We’re building a vehicle that redefines comfort and safety in extreme climates,” said Stephen Soley, Marketing Manager for Nissan America. THE FUTURE IS HERE 🚗💨 The result of these extreme tests is an SUV that not only offers reliability and comfort but also raises industry standards. For Nissan, every sunrise, no matter how frosty, is an opportunity to keep innovating. 🌅❄️ The Nissan Kicks 2025 stands as a testament to advanced engineering and reflects the passion of those working behind the scenes to ensure every journey is unforgettable. 🚙✨

Kansas City regained possession in Steelers territory, and the drive ended with another touchdown for the Chiefs. The final score of 29-10 held, as both defenses and the clock prevented further scoring. With this victory, the Kansas City Chiefs secured the top seed in the AFC, guaranteeing extra rest between the end of the regular season and the playoffs, thanks to their impressive 15-1 record.

VITAL CHECK BEFORE HITTING THE ROAD 💥🚗

Sergio Spinoza / Automotive industry / en / December 23, 2024

Travel season is here, and excitement is in the air! 🌴🏖️ Whether you’re planning a beach getaway, a family visit, or a camping trip with friends, don’t forget that the key player making it all possible is your car. 🚘 Before hitting the road, ensure it’s in top-notch condition. A proper inspection can prevent mishaps and guarantee a safe journey. Here’s a breakdown of the essential points to check and why they matter. Road trips come with their risks: from potholes and construction zones to unpredictable weather 🌧️ or reckless drivers. However, a preventive check-up can be your best defense. This inspection can be done at home, at a gas station, or with the help of experts at a specialized service center. 💡 Tip: If your next scheduled car maintenance is coming up, move it forward. This way, your filters, brakes, and lubricants will be in perfect condition before the trip. 1️⃣ WINDSHIELD WIPERS 🌧️ Nothing ruins a trip more than blurry visibility. Your windshield wipers should be in good shape, with no dry or cracked rubber. Test their functionality before leaving. Clear visibility can make all the difference on a rainy day. 2️⃣ LIGHTS CHECK 💡 Your lights are your best allies on the road. From turn signals to fog lights, ensure everything is working properly. During rain or dark stretches, they could save you from an accident. 3️⃣ TIRES READY TO GO 🚗💨 Check the air pressure and ensure no objects are stuck in the tires. A damaged tire can lead to an unexpected blowout, especially on long trips. 4️⃣ BRAKES IN TOP CONDITION 🛑 A slight screech when braking might be a warning sign. Brake pads should be checked every 45,000 km, but if you notice anything unusual, don’t ignore it. 5️⃣ STEERING STABILITY 🔄 Precise steering is crucial for straight roads and curves. Test it by letting go of the wheel for a few seconds on a straight stretch; if the car doesn’t veer off, everything is fine. 6️⃣ SHOCK ABSORBERS IN SHAPE 🛞 Shock absorbers protect you from potholes and uneven terrain. Replace them if they’ve been in use for over 80,000 km. 7️⃣ FLUID LEVELS 💧 Check the oil, coolant, brake fluid, and water. Low levels can be catastrophic for the engine. If you spot leaks under your vehicle, take it to the workshop immediately! 8️⃣ GAS TANK, ALWAYS FULL ⛽ Don’t rely on a half-full tank. Traffic jams or unexpected detours can consume more fuel than expected. Don’t forget to check seat belts, air conditioning, windows, and even the Bluetooth system to ensure everything works smoothly. Additionally, carrying a multi-purpose engine treatment can optimize fuel consumption and prevent issues with the injection system. If your car has over 120,000 km on the odometer, give it extra care. Using a high-mileage treatment can extend the engine’s life and protect it under extreme conditions. 🎯 Remember: A well-maintained car is synonymous with a safe and stress-free trip. 🌟 So, before heading out, give your car the attention it deserves and get ready to enjoy your adventure to the fullest! 🚗
