 Rebels to withdraw from key DR Congo town 'after US request' The M23 rebel group has said it would withdraw from the eastern DR Congo town of Uvira at the request of the US administration, which had criticised seizure of the town last week as a threat to mediation efforts. The rebels entered Uvira, on the border with Burundi, less than a week after the presidents of Congo and Rwanda met with US President Donald Trump in Washington and affirmed their commitment to a peace deal known as the Washington Accords. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Saturday that Rwanda's actions in eastern Congo violated the Washington Accords and vowed to "take action to ensure promises made to the President are kept."

 Now I have to prove myself - Guardiola


Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says he wants to "prove" he can drag the club out of their current slump. City head to Anfield on Sunday to face Liverpool off the back of losing five consecutive matches in all competitions and tossing away a 3-0 lead to draw with Feyenoord in the Champions League on Tuesday.


Defeat on Merseyside would leave them 11 points adrift of Arne Slot's side in the Premier League table. Guardiola says in the present situation it is "unrealistic" to look at longer term targets like the possibility of winning the league title.


Instead, he is focusing on his own contribution and the belief that, arguably, how he deals with the present situation is a greater test of his managerial abilities than the 18 trophies he has won at City. "Of course it's not nice but what do you expect? That everything is red carpet? That everything is nice and easy?" he said.


"It's easy when you are [winning] 10, 12 games in a row, everyone is fit, everyone is in their prime and everyone is 26, 27, 28. When everything is going well, that is easy. "I have to prove myself now."
