World Cup News

Hansi Flick played down the significance of Lamine Yamal’s angry reaction in the aftermath of Barcelona’s win over Atletico Madrid, attributing the tension to the teenager’s failure to register a goal or an assist. Barca moved seven points clear at the top of LaLiga on Saturday as Robert Lewandowski’s fortuitous 87th-minute goal sealed a 2-1 […] The post ´He was a bit upset´ – Flick unfazed by Yamal´s angry reaction after Barcelona win appeared first on Soccer News.

Luton Town boss Jack Wilshere has made an impassioned plea for his former protege Max Dowman to make England’s World Cup squad. The Hatters’ head coach, who played Dowman as a 13-year-o…

Lamine Yamal 's anger at the end of Barcelona's vital 2-1 win over Atlético Madrid in LaLiga on Saturday was down to the emotion of the game, according to coach Hansi Flick.

The events raised questions as to what this might mean for Spain’s co-hosting of the 2030 World Cup with Morocco, a majority Muslim country

The tactical impact of Raphinha’s absence on Barcelona is profound, with the team looking weaker, slower, and far less aggressive. As a key component of Hansi Flick’s system, his absence does not just remove an attacker — it disrupts structure. Introduction Injuries are part of football, but timing defines their significance. With Barcelona… The post Raphinha’s Injury: Tactical Impact on Barcelona Ahead of the Champions League Quarterfinal first appeared on Breaking The Lines.

Yamal and Co drew 0-0 with the African nation in a friendly on Tuesday night, with the 18-year-old starting the game but finding it hard to break down the away side's defence.

An unsavoury chant has cast a shadow over Spain, just as an exciting team led by Yamal prepare for this summer's World Cup

Police investigate chants heard at Barcelona friendly Spain’s coach and justice minister condemn behaviour Lamine Yamal has criticised chants by Spain fans during a friendly against Egypt in Barcelona that police are investigating for Islamophobia and xenophobia. Spain supporters chanted “who doesn’t jump is a Muslim”, prompting Yamal to respond on Instagram. He wrote that the chanting “was aimed at the opposing team and was not something personal against me, but as a Muslim it is still a lack of respect and something intolerable. To those who sing these things: using a religion as a form of mockery on a pitch shows you up as ignorant and racist.”

An anti-Muslim chant was heard several times during Spain's goalless draw with Egypt in Catalonia on Tuesday.

Spain are one of the most iconic international teams and they will be eyeing their second World Cup title this summer. Their distinctive red shirts and beautiful football are a key part of the icon…

Hello Rank Squad! It's the first Champions League Takeaway of the week, looking back at Tuesday's action from the First Legs of the Round of 16 - where there were a glut of goals, some games put to bed already, a couple of shocks, and another nadir from perhaps the saddest club in world football right now in Tottenham Hotspur. We start with Spurs' visit to the Metropolitano to play Atletico Madrid, where in the first 15 minutes a catastrophic collapse plumbed new depths in what has already been a disastrous season for the Lilywhites. This time Antonin Kinsky was the man in the firing line, with the young keeper substituted just 15 minutes into his Champions League debut. Atleti hit five, and whilst Spurs managed two in reply to nominally keep them in the tie, this was another brutal night for interim manager Igor Tudor, who has now conceded 14 goals in the four games he has been in charge of - all four of them losses. Surely, this can't go on. We then head to Tyneside, where Newcastle United put in a very impressive performance against a lacklustre Barcelona, and were rewarded with Harvey Barnes' late opener to give them the lead...only to see that wiped out by a Lamine Yamal penalty in injury time after Dani Olmo was felled in the box. Scant reward for a good showing for the Toon, but Barça escaping with a draw despite being nowhere near their best at St. James' Park. In Part Two we look to Istanbul - where Galatasaray repeated their league stage scoreline against Liverpool with a 1-0 win over the Reds at Rams Park, in a game that ended up being a microcosm of Liverpool's season - fragile defensively and wasteful up top; before rounding things off with a chat about Bayern's mesmerising 6-1 win over Atalanta in Bergamo, where Michael Olise dazzled on a night where Bayern ran absolute rings around their opposition, and confirmed their status as one of the outright favourites to win this competition this season.

Just when it looked like Real Madrid's week was going from bad to worse, Fede Valverde stepped up. His 94th-minute rocket at Celta Vigo snatched a dramatic 2-1 win, a vital response after back-to-back defeats that keeps the title race firmly alive. Barcelona did what champions do, they found a way. A gritty 1-0 win at fortress San Mamés restores their four-point lead at the top. Lamine Yamal's second-half strike, was the difference between the sides. Atletico Madrid served up Friday night fireworks, edging Real Sociedad 3-2 in a thriller at the Metropolitano. Alexander Sørloth bagged a brace as Simeone's side hold onto third, proving once again that with Atleti , drama is never far away.

Lamine Yamal became the youngest player this century to score a La Liga hat-trick as Barcelona thumped Villarreal 4-1 to move top of the table. We ask if this Barcelona side now have the momentum to push on. The Champions League draw has served up blockbuster ties: Real Madrid face familiar foes Manchester City, Barcelona take on Newcastle United, and Atletico Madrid travel to Tottenham. A potential all-Spanish quarter-final between Barcelona and Atletico awaits. Elsewhere, Julian Alvarez was Atletico's hero with a 94th-minute winner against Real Oviedo, while Sevilla fought back from two down to draw the Seville derby.

Barcelona continue to lead the way at the top of La Liga with a dominant performance in the 3-0 over Mallorca, which featured yet another screamer from Lamine Yamal and an impressive showing from Marcus Rashford. Gary and Alex look at the England forward’s form and his chances of securing a starting berth at the world cup. Real Madrid are just about keeping pace in 2nd place, with a Kylian Mbappe stoppage time goal sealing the points away at troubled Valencia. A game in which the opener was scored by a recent Preston North End midfielder… Atletico Madrid went from the sublime to the ridiculous, losing 1-0 at home to Real Betis just a few days after beating them 5-0 in the Copa Del Rey.
