  1. CAF official hits out at Morocco AFCON title award

    The fallout from the Africa Cup of Nations final has reached a boiling point after a senior official at the Confederation of African Football (CAF) broke ranks to slam his own governing body. Augustin Senghor, an executive committee member and former head of the Senegalese Football Federation, believes the decision to overturn the match result and hand the trophy to Morocco is a bridge too far.

  2. Rosenior in crisis as Sanchez & Fofana drop stinkers

    Chelsea were humbled in their first visit to the Hill Dickinson Stadium, falling 3-0 to Everton in the Premier League on Saturday evening. The Blues were hoping to bounce back from Tuesday's Champions League defeat by the same scoreline to Paris Saint-Germain but instead came unstuck against David Moyes' Toffees, who moved to within two points of Liam Rosenior's side in the table.

  3. Van Dijk & Konate caught napping as Liverpool lose to Brighton

    Liverpool were beaten 2-1 by Brighton and Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium on Saturday, as a Danny Welbeck brace gave the Seagulls all three points. It was a disjointed performance from the Reds, despite Milos Kerkez's goal, after Hugo Ekitike was injured within the first 10 minutes. It is another damning result for head coach Arne Slot, who looks to have run out of ideas in the dugout.

  4. Humiliation for Harry Maguire as Man Utd throw it away

    Harry Maguire marked his return to the England squad in an unwanted manner as he was sent off in Manchester United's disappointing 2-2 draw at Bournemouth. The Red Devils twice took the lead in the second half, from a Bruno Fernandes penalty and then an own goal by James Hill. But they were pegged back each time and had reason to complain for the Cherries' first equaliser.

  5. Arsenal Carabao Cup win would finally signal changing of guard

    Arsenal will look to end their six-year trophy drought on Sunday when they take on rivals Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley. Going back even further, the Gunners haven't won silverware in front of live fans since their 2017 FA Cup triumph, a time when Arsene Wenger was still manager and Mikel Arteta had just completed his first season as Pep Guardiola's assistant.

  6. Time for Haaland to stay humble & end Wembley hoodoo

    "It sharpens your mind, and there are clear similarities to football," said Erling Haaland when he announced his investment in the Total Chess World Championship this week. "You have to think quickly, trust your instincts, and think several moves ahead. Strategy and planning are everything." The Manchester City striker’s strategy cannot be faulted except at one stadium in particular: Wembley.

  7. Foden is a lucky boy - but Trent still can't win over Tuchel

    Thomas Tuchel has unveiled his England squad for this month's friendlies at home to Uruguay and Japan. These fixtures will be the final two chances for the German to examine his squad in detail before the end of the club season, and he's gone a bit rogue in how he's decided on his roster, naming an expanded 35-player selection but effectively splitting the team in two.

  8. How Arteta turned sizzling Arsenal-City rivalry on its head

    The last time Manchester City and Arsenal faced each other in the League Cup final, Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta sat side by side in the Wembley dugout as head coach and assistant before celebrating as their City team destroyed the Gunners 3-0 and claimed the first of piece of silverware of the former's time in England. The rampant win only crystalized the widening gap between the two clubs.

  9. Roma's €25m teen who is earning Osimhen comparisons

    Roma's acquisition of Robinio Vaz from Marseille on January 14 was considered quite the coup for the Serie A side. The Frenchman was still only at 18 at the time of the €25 million (£21.5m/$29m) transfer from Stade Velodrome to Stadio Olimpico, with Lamine Yamal the only player younger than Vaz to have scored at least four goals in Europe's 'Big Five' leagues this season to that point.

Must-read opinion and expert analysis

  1. Kaneryd on target but Blues falter in WSL title race again

    Chelsea's hopes of retaining the Women's Super League title were all but ended at the hands of the London City Lionesses on Saturday afternoon, with the Blues pegged back to a 1-1 draw at The Den. Despite taking the lead early in the first half, Sonia Bompastor's decision to leave her heavy hitters on the bench cost her, with the hosts stepping up their efforts in the second half to claw back a point.

  2. Shaw's record-breaking hat-trick edges City towards WSL title

    Khadija Shaw's record-breaking hat-trick fired Manchester City to a dominant 5-2 win over Tottenham on Saturday, allowing the Women's Super League leaders to maintain their seven-point cushion at the top with just four games to go. It took Shaw just 21 minutes from kick-off, and 13 minutes between goals, to net her treble, setting two new competition records, and that was added to by Kerolin's strike and an own goal from Amanda Nilden as City bounced back from last week's disappointing draw at Aston Villa.
