Zlatan Ibrahimovic: if Anthony Joshua want to see some 'Bruce Lee skills' I will happily agree

By

Anthony Joshua extended his undefeated knockout streak to 20 fights last night.

And while the multiple heavyweight champion of the world provided the entertainment in the ring, the equally charismatic Zlatan Ibrahimovic stole the spotlight at ringside.

The Man United forward was present in Cardiff as Joshua defeated Carlos Takam in the tenth round and provided a classic one-liner in the aftermath of the fight.

When asked if he fancied stepping into the ring with Joshua, Zlatan joked that he only wanted to learn from the boxer but if Joshua wanted to see some ‘Bruce Lee skills’ then the enigmatic Swede would happily oblige.

Ibrahimovic's Goal gives Man Utd EFL Cup

By
Image
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the late hero as Manchester United edged Southampton 3-2 in a thrilling EFL Cup final at Wembley. Ibrahimovic gave the Red Devils the lead with a trademark precision free-kick, while Jese Lingard doubled the advantage with a composed finish. However, Manolo Gabbiadini’s goal just before the break livened the tie up, and he levelled proceedings early in the second half. With less than five minutes on the clock, Ibrahimovic popped up again, heading home unmarked from close range to win the cup for Jose Mourinho’s men. Wembley bore witness to a superb encounter as expectant United faced a Saints side looking to win just the second major trophy in their history, the first having come 41 years ago when the sides met in the FA Cup final. Manolo Gabbiadini’s brace had Southampton dreaming as Ibrahimovic and Jesse Lingard strikes were cancelled out, only for Ibrahimovic to head home three minutes time to clinch a hard-fought 3-2 win. Europa League and FA Cup glory

Man City came from behind to beat Monaco 5-3

By

The first competitive meeting between Manchester City and Monaco will live long in the memory as the sides shared eight goals. Manchester City claimed a remarkable 5-3 victory over Monaco in an all-time Champions League classic at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday. The first competitive meeting between the two sides will live long in the memory after goals inside the final 13 minutes from John Stones – atoning for an earlier error – and Leroy Sane put City in command of the last-16 tie. Sergio Aguero and Radamel Falcao had scored two apiece – the latter also missing a penalty – while Raheem Sterling and Kylian Mbappe also got in on the act. Leonardo Jardim's side, who have scored over 100 goals in all competitions this season, will rue the moment Falcao squandered a chance to make it 3-1 from the spot, as City hit back. It was Sterling who opened the scoring 26 minutes in, but City quickly surrendered their advantage to Falcao's diving header following a poor clearance from Wi

Zidane's first press interview in Cardiff: See what he said about juventus match

By

Zidane appeared in the press room at the National Stadium of Wales to discuss his side's Champions League final against Juventus. The madridista coach expressed his confidence in the team: “We're ready. We've worked extremely hard to get here. We've won LaLiga as well. We're in great shape and now it's time to play this well deserved final. The most important thing is that all of us are ready to play this match”. “There's no pressure. At Madrid we live with pressure every day. I've experienced it as a player and as a coach. We all know what this club is about. They're saying we're favourites but football doesn't work like that. It's a final and anything can happen. It's 50-50, there are no favourites. We're going to try and do everything we can to win the Champions League once again”.                 Feelings “If you'd told me when I was a kid that I was going to experience all of this… Now I'm living it and I'm en

Ronaldo's first LaLiga goal gives Madrid maximum point against Getafe

By
Image
Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema fired Real Madrid to La Liga history with a 2-1 victory over Getafe. The Blancos have not been at their best this season, with a slow start made to the defence of their domestic crown. Rather surprisingly, their struggles so far have come on home soil, as Valencia and Levante have left the Santiago Bernabeu with a draw and a win, respectively.  Zinedine Zidane’s side have been in imperious form on the road, though, with 13 successive victories wrapped up on their travels. Real required another moment of Ronaldo inspiration to see them to a record-setting success on Saturday. Benzema fired them in front against Getafe, but Jorge Molina restored parity and threatened to offer further frustration for the capital giants. Ronaldo, though, scored in the 85th minute to snatch all three points. That effort was the Portuguese forward’s first in La Liga this season, and could not have come at a better time. Real have now won seven successi

It will be "suicidal", if we pack the bus against Al Ahly in CAF champions league final

By
Image
Wydad Casablanca coach Hussein Amotta said it would be "suicidal" to try and defend the 1-1 CAF Champions League final first-leg draw when they meet Al Ahly again Saturday.  A goalless second leg at the Stade Mohammed V would give the Moroccans victory over the Egyptians on the away-goal rule in the premier African club competition title decider. But Amotta believes "parking the bus" is not an option as Wydad seek to win the competition for the second time after their 1992 triumph over Al Hilal of Sudan. "Ahly boast one of the best attacks in Africa so it would be suicidal to sit back and defend against them, hoping to win on away goals," the 48-year-old former midfielder said. "We must attack because there are flaws in the Ahly defence, while not giving our opponents space to catch us on the counter. "Wydad achieved a great result in Egypt by holding Ahly, one of the most experienced clubs in the continent. "But this final

Phil Neville-"only one premier league player will make Real Madrid first eleven"

By
Image
David De Gea is the only Premier League player good enough to force his way into the current Real Madrid side. That is the verdict of former Manchester United and England man Phil Neville, who has criticised the overall standard of the Premier League. Zinedine Zidane’s Real have enjoyed another fine campaign and remain on course to win both La Liga and the Champions League. And having watched the Spanish outfit beat rivals Atletico Madrid 3-0 in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final clash, Neville believes only one Premier League player would make it into the Real starting XI. ‘I was in the Bernabeu, watching Real play Atletico in the Champions League and I saw Real play to a level that I don’t think anyone in the Premier League can get anywhere near,’ the 40-year-old said on Match of the Day. ‘It’s no surprise that we don’t have any teams in the semi-finals of the Champions League. ‘I looked at the Real Madrid team and I thought, how many players from the Premier L

Mourinho worried about the possibility of Fellaini leaving Manchester united

By
Image
Jose Mourinho, the Manchester United manager, has admitted he is worried Marouane Fellaini will leave the club. Fellaini is out of contract at the end of the season and talks over a new deal remain at an impasse. The Belgium international midfielder rejected a new contract offer in September, and while United remain hopeful of persuading the player to stay, he will be free to talk to foreign suitors in January and Mourinho fears he could be tempted to go next summer. Fellaini currently earns about £120,000 a week and is requesting for 170,000. “Yes,” the United manager said when asked if he was worried about Fellaini leaving. Asked what he could do to get Fellaini to stay, Mourinho added: “Nothing. It is a discussion between the player and the board. I’m not involved in contracts, deals. “I respect both. The respect the player because he has the right, he has the right to decide his future. If he has finished his contract he has the right. I respect the board because

David Silva, believes Man City will challenge for more silver wares next season under Guardiola

By
Image
David Silva believes the improvements Manchester City have made under Pep Guardiola will provide a platform for major success next season. Guardiola took charge at the Etihad last summer after his contract at Bayern Munich came to an end and although City will end the season trophyless, Silva feels there have been significant enhancements that stand them in good stead ahead of the new campaign. The Spaniard says Guardiola is in the process of altering the mentality of the players - as well as the style the team plays - and believes next season will see City challenge for multiple trophies. “For me, it's been a good season, but when you don't win trophies, you feel a little bit disappointed,” he said. “We are here to win trophies. It's Pep Guardiola's first season, he is changing some ideas of football and the way of play, it suits us well. “We are doing something for the near future and I think we are achieving it little by little. “We had good games at home again
