46 h. ago Lines of disappointment etched into Spurs fans’ faces evaporate into the Bilbao air | Max Rushden

Emotion of Europa League final victory hits hard, particularly tangled in with homesickness watching from Australia at 5amI didn’t really cry until Son Heung-min was handed the trophy – the camera hadn’t cut to him enough at full time. Of all the players who look sad when they’re sad, Sonny really looks sad. Building up to the Europa League final all I could imagine was a disconsolate South Korean walking around the pitch applauding mournfully. The Harry Kane walk. His smile when shiny-shoed Aleksander Ceferin hands him the trophy broke me. Apparently the Uefa Cup weighs 15kg – the same as my three-year-old. That trophy certainly looked lighter than when young Ian demands to be carried home from the park.As a very sleep-deprived middle-aged dad of young kids, the emotion of football back home hits a lot harder than it used to. I found myself weeping at the videos of Crystal Palace fans after the FA Cup final. Someone focused from person to person, pausing for just enough time on eac...

‘It’s been difficult,’ says Manchester City forwardFoden won PFA Player of the Year award a year agoPhil Foden has revealed he has faced challenges “off the pitch mentally” this season and that an ankle injury sustained against Manchester United in April has hampered him and is not 100% healed.The Manchester City forward has struggled to recapture last term’s impressive form that featured a career-high 27 goals and being voted the Professional Footballers’ Association players’ player of the year and the football writers’ player of the year.

4 d. ago Soccer still has the power to leave us in tears. I should know

Whether fans were celebrating, saying goodbye to an old home or remembering those no longer with us, the game’s power was on show this weekendSign up for Soccer with Jonathan Wilson hereWhat was striking on Saturday, after Crystal Palace had beaten Manchester City to win the FA Cup, was how many people were in tears. The camera roamed the stands, capturing the images of Palace fans in disbelief after winning their first ever major trophy. Some were hugging those next to them, some waved their arms incoherently and others just stared, overcome. But a significant proportion were sobbing. Soccer can often seem an angry game, with crowds fuelled by rage; this was something very different, very hard to explain.Palace’s pre-match tifo had shown an image of a father hugging his two sons in the stand at Old Trafford after Darren Ambrose had scored a 35-yard drive there for Palace in a League Cup quarter-final in 2011-12. It turned out the two lads were among the Palace fans at Wembley and t...

5 d. ago Crystal Palace’s FA Cup triumph left their fans in tears – I was among them | Ed Aarons

There was a sense of disbelief at Wembley as the team I support ended a wait of almost 120 years to win a major trophyWhen Marc Guéhi and Joel Ward went up to collect the FA Cup, we were there. Although it still seems like a dream. The sense of disbelief that Crystal Palace supporters felt when the full-time whistle at Wembley ended their wait to win a major trophy will probably take a few more days to fade away given it’s taken almost 120 years to become a reality. But with most of the 30,000 wearing red and blue having travelled from south London in hope rather than expectation, finally, it was our moment.After an agonising 10 minutes of stoppage time that seemed to take an eternity, the emotions of defeat in Palace’s two previous FA Cup finals came pouring out. Everywhere you looked there were grown men – including me and the former Guardian stalwart Dominic Fifield – moved to tears.
