1 week ago A different kind of Champions League final is something to be cherished | Philipp Lahm

It’s good to know that all five major leagues have a chance of winning the title, and not just Spain or EnglandThe Champions League should be varied, otherwise it’s no fun. Recently, however, two clubs have dominated the competition. There hasn’t been a final without Real Madrid or Manchester City for four years, and there hasn’t been another winner for three. And since 2014, Spain or England have always won. The only exception was Bayern Munich, but they benefited from the circumstances of the pandemic in 2020.On Saturday there will be a different winner in Munich, one from a different country. Paris St-Germain take on Inter. France against Italy in the final, that rarely happens. Serie A, once the best league in the world, has not won the title for 15 years and Ligue 1 last had a winner in 1993. In the inaugural season of the Champions League Marseille defeated Milan. Since then there have only been two finals with a French club, Monaco losing in 2004 and PSG in 2020. Continue rea...

1 week ago From Linköping to Lisbon: retracing Blackstenius’s steps to Arsenal icon status

The Sweden attacker has a reputation for delivering in the big moments and her former coaches are not surprisedOf the many enduring images of Arsenal’s celebrations after their Women’s Champions League triumph over Barcelona, one in particular emphasised the magnitude and rarity of the contribution made by their goalscorer, Stina Blackstenius. The Arsenal striker was photographed holding the trophy aloft alongside Alex Scott, the scorer of the only goal in their only previous European final 18 years earlier, and as the pair posed together, it hit home that Blackstenius had scored one of the two biggest goals in the club’s history.The 29-year-old Sweden striker’s name will now be immortalised in Arsenal Women folklore and, despite predominantly playing as a substitute in the past two seasons, she has developed a knack for delivering in the biggest moments, scoring the winner in the 2024 League Cup final and in the 2023 League Cup final.

Tommy Watson’s 95th-minute goal secured 2-1 victorySheffield United’s Chris Wilder concedes a bitter blowRégis Le Bris said the 19-year-old Tommy Watson’s dramatic stoppage-time winner to clinch Sunderland’s promotion to the Premier League encapsulated a rollercoaster season and suggested team spirit will be key if they are to cope with the step up next season. The French head coach masterminded Sunderland’s return to the top flight after eight years in his first season at the club.Watson, a 73rd-minute substitute, scored in the fifth minute of added time to complete a dream comeback victory after Eliezer Mayenda cancelled out Tyrese Campbell’s well-taken opener. Watson, who joined Sunderland aged eight, will move to Brighton next month after the clubs agreed a £10m deal in April, but the forward gave his boyhood club the perfect parting gift. “We’ll see each other in the Premier League next year, in the big time,” Watson said.

2 w. ago Carlo Ancelotti bows out at Real Madrid: ‘I don’t regret a thing. I’ve had a good time’

Winner of four Champions Leagues over two spells, club’s most successful manager will for ever be adored by fansSometimes things don’t go the way they were planned, they go better. The call that ended with Carlo Ancelotti back at Real Madrid started as something completely different. It was August 2021, he was manager at Everton and he had phoned to ask Madrid’s chief executive José Ángel Sánchez about borrowing players but talk turned to their search for a coach. Zinedine Zidane had walked out again, dropping a letter bomb on the way, and Ancelotti wondered whether they had found anyone yet. Madrid were struggling and Sánchez said no, we’re still looking. Which is when the Italian replied that they needed the best and luckily they were already talking to him. “Or have you forgotten about 2014?” he said.It was classic Carlo. Gently done, an idea cleverly slipped in as if it were not an idea at all, just a throwaway line, another true word said in jest. And like so much of what he do...
