Real Madrid advanced to the finals of the 2022 Supercopa de Espana with a 4-3 win on penalties against Valencia in the semi-final. Outfield play ended 1-1 between the two teams, and they had to be separated from spot kicks.
In the end, Thibaut Courtois was able to deny Valencia captain Jose Gaya to seal the win for his side. Madrid will now defend their Supercopa title on Sunday against whoever wins the other semi-final.
Real Madrid through to 2022 Supercopa de Espana finals
Karim Benzema opened the scoring for Los Blancos from the spot, continuing their perfect penalty record for almost 40 years in the tournament. The Frenchman has also become the first to score in five consecutive Supercopa games since Messi in 2012.
Samuel Lino pulled his side level only a minute into the second half. The striker was at the end of a cross from Lato, and smashed the ball past Thibaut Courtois to equalise.
Both teams had to lose players to injury, and extra time was probably the last thing that the managers wanted. But since the two could not be separated, the game had to go to the shootout. And Real Madrid continued their dominance in Supercopa shootouts by eliminating Valencia.
Los Blancos will face either Barcelona or Real Betis in the finals depending on who wins the other semi-final.

As many predicted, Stadia is dead. Despite Google’s ostensibly best efforts, the game streaming service has met the fate of many other of the tech company’s investments, with players experiencing the system’s winding down. This has created controversy, however, in that the games and save files bought and created on Stadia are disappearing with the system. Ubisoft is attempting to rectify this situation, and we can only hope others in the industry follow suit.
Money and Effort
While some of the games on Stadia were free, many of the big titles cost just as much as their non-streaming counterparts. Since players expect to keep something they paid for, the thought of losing their titles when Stadia shut down was, to many, akin to theft. Enough noise was made here that Stadia is promising to transfer ownership of these games to other systems like Steam or refund them entirely, but this is only part of the problem.
A game is what you play, but your experiences with a game are stored in save files. These files can contain hundreds of hours of experiences, trials, tribulations, and victories. Even if players can keep a game when Stadia shuts down, since saves filed on the systems are on Google’s servers, they’ll disappear with the service. This is the important point where companies like CD Projekt Red and Ubisoft are stepping up, transferring save files via cross-save so that they can be imported to new systems.
Though not every game offers cross-save support (yet), this does at least give a solution to a problem that many users have been concerned about. Of course, not all games are from these companies, so players still have to worry about their saves in titles like Borderlands 3, DIRT 5, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, FIFA 22, and Red Dead Redemption 2. Sports titles are especially concerning here, as their online systems revolve around microtransactions to build teams that could be lost to deletion.
Though it would be theoretically possible for all developers and publishers to take a similar route, this could be expensive to the point where big companies consider saving save files not worth the risk. This isn’t great for customers, but it’s in line with how other parts of the gaming industry have worked over the last few years.
Small Games, Small Problems
Consider smaller interactive experiences, like what’s available in online casinos. As a start, players can build their accounts on the services offered by new online casinos. These bonuses like free spins and deposit matches can give huge benefits to players, and thanks to the games, the offers aren’t at risk. Casino games don’t depend on long-term save files, operating instead as short and self-contained experiences. Players can jump right in where they left off, which is something that video games abandoned decades ago.
Video games, on the opposite side of the equation, can be huge and expensive. Practically every one of these maintains some level of safe data, where losses can be catastrophic. Just buying a game can cost $60 for some titles, and when these games go offline or become unavailable, the player’s money goes with them. This is the case with Anthem, it’s the case with many MMOs, and like with Stadia’s save file problems, it comes with a real feeling of wasted time, money, and effort.
The unfortunate reality of this situation is that the nature of video games, as larger experiences, requires players to save data as a part of their systems. Unlike the oldest games or the smaller titles of other industries, this will always be the case. In a situation like Stadia’s demise, or with games as service titles shutting down, gamers always run some risk of losing what they’re paid for. It’s a bad situation to be in, and it’s not one with any easy solutions.
As for the final state of millions of hours of saved files across all of Stadia’s titles, that remains to be seen. With the Stadia systems shutting down at the beginning of 2023, it’s possible that save data might be held until transfer solutions can be found. On the other hand, if previous experience in game shutdowns is worth anything, players could be left with nothing but a deepening distrust of the gaming industry’s biggest names.
Even while there are more 5G phones available every day, there are still relatively few individuals utilizing them globally. Fortunately, things are starting to change. Last but not least, Google Pixel smartphones now support the Airtel and Jio 5G networks in India. Originally scheduled for release in December, Google’s update to enable 5G capabilities on its handsets in India has been postponed for an unspecified reason.
Users of the Google Pixel 6 and Google Pixel 7 family of devices who has loaded the Android 13 QPR2 Beta 2 update can now access 5G connectivity on the Jio and Airtel networks.
A stable upgrade is anticipated to be delivered in the upcoming weeks, therefore it’s crucial to keep in mind that this is only a beta version.
Three smartphones presently support India’s 5G network: the Google Pixel 6a, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro. The Tensor G2 CPU powers the Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, while the Tensor G1 chip powers the Pixel 6. Users can now make use of a 5G network with reduced latency and faster download and upload speeds thanks to the most recent software upgrade.
The Pixel 6a, which supports 19 5G bands, is Google’s most cheap 5G smartphone.
The Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, in a similar vein, support 22 5G bands, and all three smartphones feature every essential 5G band necessary to deliver decent inside and outdoor 5G coverage in India. It’s important to note, though, that none of the Google Pixel smartphones in India presently support mmWave 5G bands.
While users of the Pixel 6a, Pixel 7, and Pixel 7 Pro can test the 5G network by installing the most recent beta version, it is advised to hold off until the stable rollout, especially if you want to use the device as your primary smartphone. Beta upgrades occasionally have an impact on the device’s general usability.
Following several rumours and reports, Xbox and Bethesda have officially announced an upcoming Developer Direct for January 25, while stating that Starfield will not be present. To give it its due, Xbox and Bethesda are currently working on a standalone showcase for a “deep dive” into Starfield’s gameplay.
Many people were surprised to learn that Microsoft did not reveal any new games or even show any real trailers at The Game Awards 2022. This raised some questions about Xbox’s 2023 lineup, though the Xbox Marketing VP stated at the time that the company would reveal more information soon.
This should be a fun week, excited for the days to progress! 💚
That same executive teased a “fun week” for the Xbox brand this week, which was followed by reports of this showcase.

The developer director will provide fans with a “inside look at some of the games coming to Xbox, PC, and Game Pass over the next few months,” according to the announcement, which includes The Elder Scrolls Online, Forza Motorsport, Minecraft Legends, and Redfall. Because these are the only games being played, the language is pretty definitive, but this level of communication is certainly welcome. Many people were concerned about what Starfield’s absence would mean, but revealing that a standalone show for it is in the works was a wise move on Microsoft’s part.
Building a custom gaming rig from scratch might be tedious and time-consuming as well so, these days a lot of people prefer buying a pre-built gaming PC instead. Now that prices have fallen by huge margins, getting a bit older pre-built variant for cheaper prices seems to be a smarter option.

Netflix unveils the trailer of the first part of the Season 4 of You. The new show has featured Penn Badgley as the serial killer Joe Goldberg. The brand-new trailer provides the cast collaborating on the show for Season 4 set to reveal the next story chapter of Joe’s blood-soaked tale. The fans also will be delighted to learn that the filming has started for season 4. You are Netflix’s Original romantic crime drama series made by Greg Berlanti and also revolved around the novels You and Hidden Bodies by the author Sera Gamble.
It seems that the series had been mainly on Lifetime before Netflix has been picked up the series as an original. After You landed on Netflix the popularity of the series has been exploded and watched by over 54 million households across the world.
The first part has exposed some of the intriguing aspects of Joe Goldberg’s psyche. Releasing earlier than previously scheduled, season 4 takes the story about the deranged psychopath forward.
Based on the eponymous book series written by Caroline Kepnes, You is a psychological thriller, which follows the enigmatic Joe, as he gets dangerously obsessed with anyone, he takes a specific interest in.
Expectations from the first part of season 4 are particularly high since the successes of similar shows on Netflix.
Earlier in 2022, the streaming giant released Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story (2022) about serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. The show, which has been met with widespread positive reception, was renewed for a second season early in November 2022.
The Watcher is another one of the major hits on Netflix’s psychological thriller or true crime content list. The show’s incredible success led Netflix to renew it for a second season.
You (Season 4): Trailer Details
The first part of the trailer provides a sneak peek into the psyche of Joe, as he treads along the lanes of London. Intrigue sets in when it is revealed that Joe is not the only murderer in town. There is another person, referred to as the ‘eat-the-rich killer’ who targets the ‘circle of privileged douchebags.’
We will observe a paradigm shift is observed as Joe transitions from being a killer to a detective when he sets on a quest to find the new killer. The trailer unveils Joe enjoying themself as a literature professor who teaches under the name of Jonathan Moore and shows Tati Gabrielle reappearing as Marienne Bellamy as Joe’s love interest.
It further reveals Joe’s ways as a teacher and his constant struggle to steer away from falling for a woman and controlling his murderous tendencies.
You (Season 4): Expectation
Nick will find Marianne”
Joe once again changed their identity and also now going by the name of Nick. It is not very surprising as He would have to change his identity considering the name of Joe Goldberg-Quinn is famous in the USA thanks to Joe for successfully pinning all of the Madre Linda murders on love.
Now, rather Joe in Paris is searching for Marianne starts.; There is an expert stalker, Marianne needed in Paris and then Joe will definitely find her sooner or faster than later.
Marianne will be happy after seeing Joe.
While Marianne came across to the home and was confronted by Love, Joe also was incapacitated at the time. The fact is Love initially desired to kill Marianne’s daughter, Juliette which also swayed their hand of Love.
After resisting the urge to murder Marianne and it also seemed like Love was somehow able to convince Marianne of Joe’s wrongdoings, and as Marianne has never seen Joe incapacitated onto the floor of the dining room and it also will be with his word against Love’s while they meet.
It also provides the chance that Marianne may even believe that Joe is dead and also assume that she has been following the news of Madra Linda that also reported that Joe has been one of the victims of Love.
Marianne is not foolish. Seeing Je in the flesh while he has been supposed to be dead will rise serious suspicion and just not to mention as he would not even have just his son, now Henry that also Joe will somewhat have to convince Marianne that also leaving his son behind was what was the best for him.
Joe’s past triggers him
It is assumed that from one location to the next, wherever Joe comes a trail of bodies lies in his wake just like he had not necessarily killed them himself. It seems that how many people also have been directly or indirectly along with Joe also will have to catch up eventually.
It seems that the Parisian police are not going to be looking for a dead man. It seems that Joe somehow finds himself in the custody and also with American authorities to be contacted and it would not take such lengths to put the two together just before they realize that Joe has faked his death and also fled from the country.
It seems not that hard to connect all of the murders from Madra Linda., to L.A., and also come back to his life in New York to then identify as a serial killer.
You (Season 4): Cast
It currently stands that the only confirmed cast member who also will be returning for the fourth season of You Is Penn Badgley. We completely expect Tati Gabrielle to reprise her role as Marianne in the latest season.
You (Season 4): New Cast
It seems that in February 2022, it was declared that Lukas Gage had joined the cast of You Season 4.
Gage also will play Adam who is also an American expert and the little son of a wealthy East-Coast magnate. He has been described as an entrepreneur and also a gambler, Adam is a warm and also funny party host and fast friend but just like Joe, also hides many secrets.
Lukas Gage is perhaps best popular known for playing Tyler on HBO’s Euphoria but you will also soon be seeing him on Peacock’s Angelyne.
In late March and April 2022, the remaining You Season 4 cast had been assembled. At first, it was reported that ex-Eastenders actress Tilly Keeper will be joining the cast of You season 4 back in March. We have seen the keeper portrayed the role of lady Phoebe in the latest series that also explained the role of Lady Phoebe in this new series that ravels as an “aristocratic socialite with an avid fan base, Phoebe’s true colors show when she’s alone with her friends”
The British actress Charlotte Ritchie declared to be joining the cast.
Amy Leigh Hickman popular for Ackley Bridge will play Nadia “a literature major with a love of genre storytelling and the inspiration to be a serious author”
Ed Speleers who currently features Netflix’s Against the Ice but is also known for Outlander and Downton Abbey will perform the role of Rhys. Rhys is described as an “author whose memoir garnered him acclaim and pressure to launch a political career.
Now rounding out the newcomers includes:
Alison Pargeter as Dawn
Ben Wiggins as Roald
Stephen Hagen as Malcolm
Adam James as Elliot
Eve Austin as Gemma
Eve Austin as Gemma
Nicky Lin as Sophia
Aiden Cheng as Simon
Sario Coates as Connie

Netflix’s most-awaited hot drama series ‘Too Hot To Handle’ announced the renewal of the fifth season. Too Hot To Handle is mainly an American-British reality game show made by Fremantle production firms Talkback and Thames. From the first season, the show has grown in popularity, and now it comes to the fourth season, which just finished and aired on Netflix.
The show has already been extended on Netflix for more than a month. The things indicate about the binged weeks ago looking forward to season 5. Too Hot To Handle Season 4 was rife with drama, unexpected turns, and unexpected relationships that made it hard to resist. Too Hot To Handle Season 4 was a two-part series.
Too Hot To Handle (Season 5): Renewal Status
It was unfortunate, Netflix hasn’t yet confirmed whether there will be a fifth season of Too Hot To Handle, so we don’t have any idea about, the number of the renewal of the season, or the number of episodes. Now, Netflix has dropped an announcement trailer for the fifth season.
The fifth season will be seen in some psychic abilities. I can think we can all rest assured that Netflix will manage to gather together yet another group of ridiculously attractive people who just can’t seem to keep their hands off each other.
Too Hot To Handle (Season 5): Plot
We don’t have the update for the second season, every season of Too Hot To Handle follows a group of young, hot people who are put together in a tropical, beachy setting for the chance to conquer the grand prize of $100,000. This is because engaging in sexual contact means losing some of that money for everyone.
Too Hot To Handle season 5: Release Date
The fourth season of Too Hot Too handle was hit in December 2022. We are expecting that season 5 will hit very soon, but we have to wait nearly a year before we get more new episodes.
