Hero: Rogers was exemplary in scoring a ton and seeing @placeholder through the majority of their second innings
By Paul Newman In Melbourne PUBLISHED: 22:27 EST, 28 December 2013 | UPDATED: 09:32 EST, 29 December 2013 This was the worst yet. A wretched, gruesome numbing defeat that not only leaves an Australian Ashes whitewash very much on but also signals, more than the other three emphatic thrashings, the end of a great era for this England team. Australia’s easy, no-nonsense eight-wicket victory within four days at the MCG is a new low simply because England threw the game away in the most culpable manner, as shamefully as anything seen in the darkest days of English cricket. This fourth Test, with the Ashes gone, was meant to be the start of something new for England, the first steps with a clean slate towards attempting to regain the urn when these old enemies meet yet again in just 18 months time. @highlight England facing humiliating series whitewash after another dismal defeat @highlight Australia romped to a fourth-straight win with eight wickets in hand @highlight Chris Rogers scored a terrific century to ease the hosts home @highlight Captain Alastair Cook dropped two early chances to add more misery

But a part of @placeholder won't be disappointed with the result, since Atletico Madrid assumed top spot in La Liga ahead of its city rival thanks to a better head-to-head record.
(CNN) -- Barcelona manager Gerardo Martino said prior to Sunday's El Clasico that it was his team's last chance in the Spanish title race. His side came through against Real Madrid -- and it was a familiar face who led the way. Lionel Messi netted a hat-trick to become the leading scorer in El Clasico history as part of a 4-3 Barcelona victory that featured just about everything in Madrid. The estimated worldwide television audience of 400 million for arguably football's biggest club game couldn't have been disappointed. "(Messi has) put in many performances like the one he put in today, but the impact is greater in a Clasico," Martino was quoted as saying on Barcelona's website.

As the protests grip the nation -- split between pro-European regions in the west and a more @placeholder-oriented east, Ukraine's central bank said it would seek to maintain financial stability.
Russia called for "stability and order" in neighboring Ukraine on Wednesday as thousands of protesters kept up their demonstrations against the government in Kiev. Speaking to a visiting Ukrainian delegation in Russia, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev told Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Yuriy Boyko that Moscow was watching the events that have plunged its neighbor, whom he called an important strategic partner to Russia, into a political crisis.

It's an internal affair of Ukraine, though it's really important to have stability and order there," he said, according to Russian news agency RIA Novosti.

@placeholder's defence was nowhere to be seen as Costa burst through before laying the ball off to his right for Matic to do the rest.

Diego Costa supplied Mohamed Salah for the first after three minutes. The Spain striker was later involved in a heated exchange with Vitesse captain Guram Kashia.
