[ad_1] Eddie Nketiah gave away a penalty and scored the winner as Arsenal got their Europa League campaign off to a winning start at Zurich on Thursday night. Brazilian youngster Marquinhos netted his first goal for the Gunners by converting Nketiah’s cross from the left before the English striker brought down Fidan Aliti, allowing Mirlind Kryeziu to grab an equaliser on the stroke of half time. However, the all-action Nketiah would make amends just after the hour mark, heading in Marquinhos’ cross at the back post to earn the visitors all three points in Group A. Arsenal enjoyed mountains of possession in Switzerland and theirRead More →

It’s a busy job, but here are some of Potter’s top priorities. Cucurella will reunite with Potter / Bryn Lennon/GettyImages The most pressing issue at Stamford Bridge is the leaky defence.

[ad_1] Christian Eriksen says he and Bruno Fernandes are beginning to understand one another on the pitch. Playing in midfield together, the two players linked up excellently in Manchester United’s 3-1 win over Arsenal for their side’s first and second goals. It’s a connection that has sparked a huge amount of excitement amongst Man Utd fans, and the Dane says it’s getting better and better. “Me and Bruno are starting to get to know each other on the pitch and see how we would like to play, pass the ball and the runs we make,” he told club media. “We try to read each otherRead More →

[ad_1] Antoine Griezmann has accepted that he’s limited to playing 30 minutes a match this season due to Atletico Madrid wanting to avoid triggering a clause that would force them to pay Barcelona €40m. The Frenchman has come off the bench around 30 minutes before the end of every match so far this season, and that’s not a coincidence. If he plays any more than that, a clause would be triggered that would force Atletico Madrid to pay Barcelona, his parent club, €40m to sign him permanently. They don’t want to do so as he’ll be available to sign on a free transfer come theRead More →

[ad_1] Orlando City beat the Sacramento Republic 3-0 on Wednesday to lift the 2022 US Open Cup title. It marks the Lions’ first major trophy since becoming an MLS club in 2015, doing so in front of a sold-out Exploria Stadium. Orlando naturally dominated against their USL opponents but were frustrated by a disciplined defensive performance, failing to register a shot on target throughout the first half – though they were rarely worried by Sacramento in their own box. Midway through the second half, Orlando’s superior fitness began to show, and in the 75th minute, Republic defender Dan Casey was caught in possession, with theRead More →

[ad_1] Wolves have won their appeal to sign Spanish striker Diego Costa, 90min understands. The 33-year-old, who turns 34 in October, was approached last week after their summer signing Sasa Kalajdzic suffered a serious knee injury on his debut, but it soon became apparent that he did not meet the new work permit criteria laid out by the British government post-Brexit. To earn a permit to play in England these days, players must accumulate the right amount of points in the system. A player earns points based on the quality of the league of their last club, and any recent international appearances. Costa, who hasRead More →

[ad_1] Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp gave a damning assessment of his team’s heavy 4-1 defeat to Napoli in the Champions League on Wednesday night, admitting the Reds need to ‘reinvent’ themselves and improve in ‘pretty much everything’. It was an incredibly lacklustre performance from Liverpool as a team. Joe Gomez was so poor in the first half that he was withdrawn at the interval, while Trent Alexander-Arnold barely seemed interested. Fabinho and Virgil van Dijk were also unusually poor, while Klopp even lost patience with Mohamed Salah an hour into the contest. “It looks like we need to reinvent ourselves. There’s a lot of thingsRead More →
