my take 🙂  quick note about the prompt, i believe it should ask how many ARTICLES contain the words "football" or "Football" in either the headline or keyword.  As the prompt is written now, i believe the correct answer should be 54.

Solved, but I got a different result from task 2. Looks to me like the model answer counts only the "footballs" only from the headlines and keywords which were under the section "sports" (then the answer is 35). However, I interpreted the assignment so that all sections should be included (not just "sports"), and then the count is actually 39.
