IN BRIEF
Fan gets three year ban
AFP, Manchester
A fan who was slapped by Craig Bellamy after running onto the pitch during Manchester United's derby win over Manchester City on September 20 was Wednesday banned from football grounds for three years.
Bellamy has escaped action by the police or the Football Association over his confrontation with Jake Clarke, a 21-year-old United fan who came on to the pitch after Michael Owen sealed a 4-3 victory for United, deep into injury time.
Clarke, who had previous convictions, for cannabis possession and common assault, told Trafford Magistrates' Court that he "deeply regrets" his behaviour. As well as the ground ban, Clarke was ordered to pay a fine of305 pounds.
Kuwaiti side triumph in landmark tie
AFP, Arbil
A Kuwaiti football club triumphed 1-0 over an Iraqi side Wednesday in the first sports competition involving the two countries here since Saddam Hussein invaded his oil-rich neighbour in 1990.
Kuwait SC's victory over Arbil Club at the 21,000-seat Francois Hariri Stadium in Arbil, the capital of Iraq's autonomous Kurdish region, propels it to the semifinals of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) cup.
Wednesday's fixture followed a 1 -1 draw in the first leg earlier this month.
The match was a sign both of warmer ties between the two neighbours, which have clashed diplomatically in recent months over war reparations stemming from the 1990 invasion, and of improving security in Iraq.
The last Kuwaiti team to play in Iraq was the country's under-21 football team in September 1989.
Jozy, Tim and Landon in US award shortlist

Five-time winner Landon Donovan, teen star Jozy Altidore and top goalkeeper Tim Howard were named Wednesday as finalists for the US national football team's Player of the Year Award.
A media panel selected the candidates, with the winner to be announced on October 20, six days after the US squad plays Costa Rica in its final North American qualifying match for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Donovan, 27, captured the honour the past two years and from 2002 through 2004. The all-time US national team scoring leader has 41 goals in 118 matches for the Americans and plays for the Los /Xngeles galaxy.
Howard, who has 46 caps, plays for Everton after a past stint with Manchester United.
Altidore. 19, is a first time finalist who has eight goals in 19 caps. He became the youngest US player to record a hattrick last April in a 3-0 qualifier win over Trinidad and Tobago. Altidore plays for England's Hull City on loan from Spain's Villarreal.
