Gary Lineker telah mengidentifikasi dua negara yang menurutnya berada di atas Inggris dalam urutan favorit untuk menjuarai Piala Dunia mendatang. Meskipun ada optimisme seputar penunjukan Thomas Tuchel, striker legendaris itu menegaskan bahwa Tim Tiga Singa masih tertinggal dari tim-tim elit dunia dalam hal kesiapan turnamen. Meskipun Inggris memiliki skuad yang dipenuhi bintang, Lineker berpendapat bahwa konsistensi historis dan kematangan taktis memberikan keunggulan signifikan bagi para pesaing mereka.
Neymar semakin mendekati kondisi kebugaran penuh dengan tampil gemilang dalam laga latihan Santos, mencetak satu gol dan memberikan satu assist untuk mengingatkan para penonton akan kualitasnya yang tak pernah pudar. Penyerang legendaris ini absen secara mengejutkan dari skuad Brasil terbaru asuhan Carlo Ancelotti, namun penampilannya di level domestik ini menunjukkan bahwa ia bertekad untuk kembali masuk dalam perhitungan tim nasional.
Didier Deschamps tampak sangat kesal meski Prancis berhasil mengalahkan Kolombia dengan skor 3-1, dan ia melontarkan kritik pedas terhadap gaya permainan fisik tim Amerika Selatan tersebut. Pelatih tim nasional itu sangat geram atas tekel keras yang dilakukan terhadap Michael Olise di menit-menit akhir, yang menurutnya lebih pantas dilakukan dalam cabang olahraga yang sama sekali berbeda.
Italia adalah salah satu raksasa Piala Dunia. Hanya Brasil, yang telah lima kali menjuarai turnamen ini, yang lebih sering menjadi juara daripada Azzurri (empat kali). Namun, sudah 20 tahun berlalu sejak terakhir kali Italia mengangkat trofi tersebut. Yang lebih parah lagi, mereka gagal lolos ke dua turnamen terakhir, yang berarti ada satu generasi penuh yang bahkan belum pernah menyaksikan negaranya berlaga di Piala Dunia.
Cristiano Ronaldo telah mendapat lampu hijau untuk kembali berlatih bersama Al-Nassr setelah menjalani program rehabilitasi yang sukses di Madrid dan Riyadh. Bintang asal Portugal tersebut, yang sempat absen akibat cedera otot paha belakang, diperkirakan akan tampil dalam laga Liga Pro Saudi melawan Al-Najma pada Jumat mendatang. Pemulihannya ini menjadi dorongan yang tepat waktu, baik bagi upaya klubnya dalam perburuan gelar juara maupun persiapan Portugal menjelang Piala Dunia 2026.
What's the cheapest way to watch as much Premier League football a season?
Currently, the most cost efficient package looks to be picking up a TV deal through Virgin Media or EE TV.
Existing TV or broadband customers can add TNT Sports to Virgin Media for £12 per month and Sky Sports for £31.75 per month, adding on Amazon Prime Video for the few weeks in the season when they show football which is £8.99 per month.
EE TV (formerly BT TV) also provide their Big Sport deal which includes TNT Sports and Sky Sports via NOW TV, for £45 per month, which is available for existing broadband customers, with the addition of Amazon Prime Video for the few weeks in the season when they show football which is £8.99 per month.
However, when it comes to bang for your buck, if you’re wanting to spend a little less, then the Complete Sky Sports package from an additional £22 per month on top of your current Sky TV deal is the best option, giving you over 128 games across a single season.
