  1. Hat-trick hero Raphinha runs things for five-star Barca

    Barcelona re-established their healthy lead at the top of La Liga on Sunday afternoon, beating Sevilla 5-2 to move back four points clear of Real Madrid. It was another fruitful outing for Raphinha, who bagged a hat-trick in the win. Two of his strikes came from the penalty spot, with his third a looping deflection that put the game to bed early in the second half.

  2. Madrid run rampant with stunning Valverde & Guler goals

    Real Madrid cruised to a 4-1 win over struggling Elche to put the pressure back on La Liga leaders Barcelona.

    Weston McKennie has established himself as one of the most reliable performers for Juventus this season, a far cry from the period when he seemed destined for a permanent exit. The American midfielder has reflected on his resilience and the mental strength required to fight for his place in the Bianconeri starting XI when the club’s hierarchy had other plans.

    AC Milan have reportedly decided to place contract renewal negotiations with Christian Pulisic on standby, choosing to wait until the conclusion of the 2025-26 campaign before making their next move. While the USMNT talisman remains a fundamental part of the Rossoneri project, the hierarchy at San Siro is in no rush to finalise a new long-term agreement as the season reaches its business end.

  1. Why Thompson expected four-month goal drought at 'scary' Chelsea

    USWNT sensation Alyssa Thompson has lifted the lid on her daunting transition from Angel City FC to the relentless spotlight of the Women's Super League.

  2. Inside Chelsea's treble quest after dismal WSL title defence

    Chelsea’s season hasn’t gone to plan so far.
