FA Cup

  1. Four goals in four months - why do Barca want to keep Rashford?

    Xavier Vilajoana made headlines during his failed bid to become Barcelona's new president by claiming to have already made "some contact" with Bayern Munich superstar Harry Kane over a move to Camp Nou. In reality, though, the most interesting topic the industrial engineer raised while on the campaign trail centered around another Englishman in Marcus Rashford.

  2. Only Poch can save Spurs - but they must survive first

    Tottenham are hurtling towards disaster. They could be relegated from the Premier League, and at this point of this season from hell, their best hope of staying up may simply be that football can change very quickly. There are still several key players to return from injury for the run-in, but that may prove too little, too late, particularly with the vibes in an almost irreversible tailspin.

  3. Brits Abroad: Trent & Rashford roasted by Spanish press

    GOAL runs the rule over the British players earning a living away from their homeland, with plenty more stars deciding to leave their comfort zones in search of a better footballing life elsewhere.

  4. Winners & losers from the Lionesses first camp of 2026

    Some England camps pass by without there being much new to learn; the Lionesses' first camp of 2026 was not one of those.

  5. How Mbappe's deep connection with Paris inspired new boots

    Kylian Mbappe might have a strained relationship with Paris Saint-Germain as a result of his bitter exit from Parc des Princes in 2024, but the French capital - and especially the Bondy neighbourhood - will always hold a place close to his heart. Dropping his latest signature boots, Nike have recognised that deep connection between Mbappe and the streets he grew up on.

  6. Garnacho to the rescue! Chelsea avoid Wrexham cupset

    Chelsea needed extra-time to beat 10-man Wrexham in their FA Cup fifth round tie, prevailing 4-2 in North Wales on Saturday. The Blues went behind twice in an entertaining encounter but managed to find two equalisers, before a red card after a VAR check meant Liam Rosenior's men finished the night with an extra player than their hosts on the pitch.

  7. Eze saves subpar Arsenal after massive Mansfield scare

    Arsenal just about did enough to edge past League One side Mansfield Town in the FA Cup fifth round, running out 2-1 winners on the road on Saturday. Mikel Arteta made several changes to his starting XI and initially lined them up in a 3-5-2 formation with wingers in lieu of wing-backs, which only emboldened their ambitious hosts. Nevertheless, goals in either half helped see the Gunners into the hat for the quarter-finals.
