MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson Moraes was forced off with a muscle injury in his right leg during the Premier League game against Crystal Palace on Saturday, minutes after providing an assist for a goal for the fourth time this season.

The Brazil international appeared to injure himself making a routine pass out from his area. He bent over in pain and was soon receiving treatment, before being replaced by Stefan Ortega in the 71st minute.

Fifteen minutes earlier, Ederson had delivered a long pass over Palace's defense toward James McAtee, who went round goalkeeper Dean Henderson and converted into an empty net to give City a 4-2 lead.

It was Ederson's fourth assist this campaign and the seventh of his Premier League career, a remarkable statistic for a goalkeeper. He is two assists ahead of No. 2 on the list — former Leeds, Tottenham and Blackburn 'keeper Paul Robinson.

City went on to win 5-2.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s motorcade took a different route than usual to the airport as he was departing Florida on Sunday due to a “suspicious object,” according to the White House.

The object, which the White House did not describe, was discovered during security sweeps in advance of Trump’s arrival at Palm Beach International Airport.

“A further investigation was warranted and the presidential motorcade route was adjusted accordingly,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement Sunday.

The president, when asked about the package by reporters, said, “I know nothing about it.”

Trump left his Palm Beach, Florida, club, Mar-a-Lago, around 6:20 p.m. for the roughly 10-minute drive to the airport, but took a circular route around the city to get there.

During the drive, police officers on motorcycles created a moving blockade for the motorcade, at one point almost colliding with the vans that accompanied Trump.

Air Force One was parked on the opposite side of the airport from where it is usually located and the lights outside the plane were turned off.

Anthony Guglielmi, the spokesman for U.S. Secret Service, said the secondary route was taken just as a precaution and that “that is standard protocol.”
