Comprehensive analyses of reproducibility in various fields, published earlier this year, have added to these concerns (O. Miske et al. Nature 652, 126–134 (2026) and A. Brodeur et al. Nature 652, 151–156; 2026).Reproducibility…

His passing accuracy was also down at 83.3%.He was substituted shortly after Inter pulled one back on 77 minutes, prompting whistles around the stadium – although this could well have been frustration Madrid supporters felt at their team’s performance rather than at Alexander-Arnold individually.It was the…
