Leicester's FA Cup specialist and the catalyst for Newcastle’s recent renaissance - English football's team of the week

A mixture of Premier League and FA Cup action this past weekend.

Kelechi Iheanacho added to his FA Cup quarter-final brace with a semi-final winner against Southampton on Sunday while his teammate Jonny Evans denied the Saints a shot on target.

Harry Kane's double against Everton in the Premier League wasn't enough to keep Jose Mourinho in a job, with the Portuguese sacked by Tottenham Hotspur on Monday.

Allan Saint-Maximin is proving the catalyst for Newcastle's recent renaissance with a dynamic display in the 3-2 win against West Ham that looks to have secured the Magpies' survival.

Trent Alexander-Arnold continued his return to form in a high-energy display against Leeds United, bursting behind their defence to set up Sadio Mane's goal in a 1-1 draw on Monday.

WHAT ARE NFTs?

     

 

    

 

   

 

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are tokens that represent ownership of unique items. They allow the tokenisation of things such as art, collectibles and even real estate.

 

An NFT can have only one official owner at one time. And since they're minted and secured on the Ethereum blockchain, no one can modify the record of ownership, not even copy-paste it into a new one.

 

This means NFTs are not interchangeable and cannot be exchanged with other items. In contrast, fungible items, such as fiat currencies, can be exchanged because their value defines them rather than their unique properties.
