Messi kept quiet as Inter Miami settle for drab goalless draw

  1. Valverde provides a masterclass - but will Vini miss prove costly?

    Federico Valverde turned in a Champions League performance for the ages, bagging a first-half hat-trick to lead Real Madrid to a comfortable 3-0 win in the first leg of their last 16 tie with Manchester City. The Uruguay international headlined a classic Madrid knockout performance, but a penalty miss from Vinicius Jr in the second half might have left the door open for a City comeback.

  2. Pep gets his tactics wrong AGAIN as O'Reilly run ragged

    Manchester City have a mountain to climb in the Champions League after slumping to a 3-0 defeat to Real Madrid in the first leg of their last 16 tie at the Bernabeu. Pep Guardiola raised eyebrows with his team selection in the Spanish capital and saw his team simply swept away by Los Blancos, with Fede Valverde stealing the show for the hosts with a brilliant first-half hat-trick.

  3. Jorgensen clangers cost Chelsea as PSG expose Rosenior

    Errors from goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen helped condemn Chelsea to a 5-2 loss in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Paris Saint-Germain. Goals from Malo Gusto and Enzo Fernandez looked to have earned the Blues a deserved draw in the French capital, only for Jorgensen to gift the ball to the defending champions on the edge of his own penalty area, which Vitinha took advantage of before Khvicha Kvaratskhelia added two further late goals.

U.S. MEN'S NATIONAL TEAM

  1. McKennie lifts lid on USMNT dressing room characters & leaders

    Weston McKennie has told GOAL what leadership means to him, as a captaincy candidate with Juventus and the USMNT, while discussing the kind of characters that he likes to work alongside. The all-action midfielder is enjoying a productive 2026, with a new contract being signed in Turin, and is counting down the days to a home World Cup on American soil.

  2. Infantino: World Cup will be a ‘total party’

    FIFA President Gianni Infantino insists the 2026 World Cup will be a flawless global celebration, brushing aside mounting anxieties over escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Despite the USA and Israel conflict with Iran disrupting football calendars, causing widespread visa chaos, and forcing Iraq to request a delay, FIFA remains solely focused on record ticket sales.

Expert Opinion & Analysis

  1. How USWNT star Coffey can become 'unpredictable' at City

    Manchester City are on the brink of a first Women's Super League title since 2016, and a big reason for their incredible performances this season has been the midfield duo of Yui Hasegawa and Laura Blindkilde Brown. And yet, in January, the Cityzens got even stronger in that position when they added another truly world-class midfielder in United States star Sam Coffey, making a move that can have so many short- and long-term benefits.

  2. Valverde & the 20 players in L'Equipe's exclusive 10/10 club

    Within a Real Madrid squad that is packed full of Galacticos, Fede Valverde is rarely singled out for what he offers to Los Blancos despite his obvious importance to the team. On Wednesday, though, he was able to hog the limelight after his stunning first-half hat-trick saw off Manchester City in the Champions League. His performance also earned him the rarest of plaudits: A 10/10 rating from L'Equipe.

Premier League

  1. 'F*ck me backwards!' - Keown slammed for 'biased' Arsenal commentary

    Arsenal legend Martin Keown has found himself in the firing line after his commentary during the Gunners' 1-1 Champions League draw with Bayer Leverkusen was labelled "biased". The controversy stems from an 89th-minute penalty awarded to the Premier League leaders after Noni Madueke went down following minimal contact from Malik Tillman, a decision that allowed Kai Havertz to level the scores.

  2. Sherwood backs Van de Ven for Liverpool move

    Liverpool have been tipped to launch a sensational raid on Tottenham for Micky van de Ven amid the north London club's battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Spurs currently sit in 16th place, just a single point above the drop zone, following a disastrous campaign that saw Thomas Frank sacked after only eight months. Things have failed to improve under interim boss Igor Tudor, who has overseen four consecutive defeats, including a 5-2 Champions League thrashing at the hands of Atletico Madrid.

Major League Soccer

  1. Retire or join Messi in MLS? ‘Truly massive’ Neymar future claim

    Neymar has hinted at injuries forcing him to retire at the end of 2026, but a fellow Brazilian is tipping the 34-year-old playmaker to make the “truly massive” call of joining Lionel Messi in MLS. Neymar previously worked with the Argentine GOAT at Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain, with Kleberson telling GOAL why a reunion at Inter Miami remains a distinct possibility.

  2. Rakitic insists Messi 'deserves' proper Barcelona tribute

    Former Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic has called for the club to finally honour Lionel Messi with a fitting tribute, while expressing his hope that the Argentine superstar continues his career at the highest level for "a few more years". Speaking on his 38th birthday, the Croatian reflected on the impact his former team-mate has had on the sport, noting that Messi's influence transcends club rivalries and borders.

Transfer News

  1. Joao Pedro tipped for shock Arsenal transfer move

    Chelsea striker Joao Pedro is currently enjoying the most prolific spell of his career, and his meteoric rise has caught the eye of former team-mates. Keinan Davis, who played alongside the Brazilian at Watford, believes the 24-year-old is destined for the very top of the game. Davis has even suggested that a cross-London switch to Premier League rivals Arsenal could be on the cards.

Women's Soccer

  1. Who are the Lionesses' most capped players?

    England women's national team has enjoyed a lot of success in recent years, winning the European Championships in 2022 and 2025 while also reaching the 2023 Women's World Cup final, and those involved in those successes in Sarina Wiegman's side are now starting to creep into the record books when it comes to caps, as well as trophies.

  2. EXCLUSIVE: Lionesses star Park on Man Utd move & flying form

    There was less than an hour remaining in the Women’s Super League summer transfer window when the most stunning business of all was completed. Jess Park and Grace Clinton had been stalwarts at Manchester City and Manchester United, respectively, during the previous season. And yet, at the eleventh hour, both were sent to opposite sides of the city, to represent what had been their biggest and bitterest rival.
