MADRID Henrik Lundqvist Black Jersey , Nov. 22 (Xinhua) -- Goals from much criticized attacking duo of Antoine Griezmann and Kevin Gameiro kept Atletico Madrid's slim hopes of reaching the last 16 of the Champions League alive on Wednesday night with a 2-0 win at home to Roma.


Griezmann had been booed off the pitch during Atletico's 0-0 draw at home to Real Madrid on Saturday night, but he shut a few mouths with a spectacular overhead kick to open the scoring with 20 minutes remaining.


Roma were reduced to 10 men when Bruno Peres was sent off for a second yellow card with seven minutes remaining and Gameiro sealed Atletico's win with a finish into an empty net from a narrow angle two minutes later.


Atletico coach Diego Simeone lost right back Juanfran Torres through injury before kick off with Jose Gimenez stepping into the side, while Augusto Fernandez made his first start since a serious knee injury in place of Gabi Fernandez and Fernando Torres also began his first game in the group stage.


In reality the game seemed to produce little excitement among Atletico fans and it was the lowest entrance in the new Wanda Metropolitano Stadium to watch what was in reality a rather dull affair in which both sides struggled to create chances; partly because Roma knew a draw would see them into the next round, while Atletico had failed to score more than one goal in each of their last 10 matches.


Augusto did see a 25 yard shot hit the back of the Roma net in the first half, but it was ruled out because of a previous handball.


Nevertheless Griezmann's goal gave Atletico a lifeline Ryan McDonagh Black Jersey , although the odds are still against the Spanish side who need to win away to Chelsea and hope that Roma fail to claim a home win against minnows Qarabag in the last group game to reach the last 16.


Elsewhere Ernesto Valverde rested Leo Messi and saw how Barca assured first place in their group with a 0-0 draw away to Juventus.




BEIJING, Nov. 10 (Xinhua) -- The 2017 Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders' Week is currently underway in central Vietnam's city of Da Nang.


The theme "fostering new dynamism, creating a shared future," echoes the idea of "building a community with a shared future for humankind" championed by Chinese President Xi Jinping, who will travel to the Vietnamese port city to attend the annual APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting on Nov. 10-11.


Integrating Asia-Pacific and ensuring free trade within the region has been at the core of APEC's mission since its establishment in Canberra Mika Zibanejad Womens Jersey , Australia 28 years ago. Though oceans apart, the member economies have endeavored in the past decades to achieve economic integration for sustainable growth and prosperity in the region, which boasts the world's two biggest economies and takes up 60 percent of total global gross domestic product (GDP) and half of global trade.


However, the commitment is easier said than accomplished, especially in today's world where humanity is witnessing profound transformation and facing numerous challenges and risks. Against such backdrop Mats Zuccarello Womens Jersey , Xi announced China's proposition to build a community with a shared future for mankind and achieve shared and win-win development in a keynote speech at the UN Office at Geneva in January.


Such proposition could also enlighten and guide the development of the Asia-Pacific, as thoughts and words are turned into concrete actions benefiting regional countries.


BELT&ROAD INITIATIVE FOR INTER-CONNECTIVITY


The Belt and Road Initiative, which comprises the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, well illustrates the philosophy and vision of a shared future for humankind. It aims to build trade and infrastructure networks connecting Asia with Europe and Africa via overland and maritime routes, with a large part within the Asia-Pacific.


Experts say the initiative has been actively promoting the development of infrastructure through the APEC region Henrik Lundqvist Womens Jersey , strengthening tangible connections among members so as to ensure further integration.


"The Belt and Road Initiative is a key program to increase connectivity within the region, and between the region and the rest of the world," said Jayant Menon, a lead economist from the Asian Development Bank. "Trade costs are directly related to the level of connectivity, and as these costs come down Ryan McDonagh Womens Jersey , integration is certain to rise."


Mey Kalyan, senior advisor to the Supreme National Economic Council of Cambodia, said the initiative links well with the Master Plan on Connectivity of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), which would create vast opportunities for regional cooperation and serve as engines for future development and prosperity.


Apart from linking trade and infrastructure construction, the Belt and Road Initiative has also increased people-to-people exchanges Authentic Mika Zibanejad Jersey , said Oh Ei Sun, special adviser for International Affairs of Malaysia's Asian Strategy and Leadership Institute.


"With the United States rapidly retreating into protectionism and isolationism, we look forward to Chinese leadership in pushing forward the free trade agenda," he added.


"At the Belt and Road Forum in Beijing in May, President Xi and others have made clear that China was opening an invitation for others to find a pathway forward for the agenda for investing in connectivity Authentic Mats Zuccarello Jersey ," noted Peter Drysdale, head of the East Asian Bureau of Economic Research and East Asia Forum at the Australian National University.


Countries involved should press ahead with the agendas, such as infrastructure construction and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, to play "a mutually beneficial game," he said.
