El chiste ya es viejo. Vinicius Jr. es de clase mundial regateando rivales, pero a la hora de definir frente al arco lo hace con la misma gracia con que la señora Cecilia Giménez restauró el Ecce Homo.
MANCHESTER, England — Manchester City's Phil Foden grabbed a last-minute winner as they beat Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in their Champions League quarter-final first leg on Tuesday after Marco Reus had netted a late equalizer for the German visitors.
Real Madrid is not Arsenal. That much was evident as Liverpool’s win over the latter on Saturday looked far in the rear-view mirror following a defeat to the former in the Champions League on Tuesday.
I spent a fair amount of time over the past month watching a sport other than soccer. The men’s and women’s NCAA basketball tournaments returned from a year hiatus and produced thrilling competitions, with the Stanford women and Baylor men claiming the titles. Soccer fans who watched the tourneys will have noticed two things: The repeated use of FIFA songs in commercials/promos and basketball announcers pretending to know what they’re talking about while plugging the Champions League on Paramount+.
Zinedine Zidane cree que el Real Madrid está siendo subestimado en la previa del partido de ida de los cuartos de final de la Liga de Campeones, este martes, frente al Liverpool de Inglaterra. El Madrid ha tenido una temporada muy irregular, pero sigue vivo en el torneo continental, así como en LaLiga, donde a falta de nueve fechas se ubica tres puntos detrás del Atlético de Madrid.
Si consigue superar al Liverpool, los merengues tendrán una semifinal contra el Chelsea o el Porto y quedará a un paso de lograr su decimocuarto triunfo europeo.
MADRID - Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has ruled out playing Eden Hazard in Tuesday's home Champions League quarterfinal first leg against Liverpool, saying he will not risk another injury setback for his club's record signing.
Belgian Hazard, ravaged by injuries since joining Real from Chelsea in 2019, returned to training on Friday ahead of schedule from his latest muscle problem but played no part in Saturday's 2-0 win over Eibar.
Barcelona advanced to the last four of the women's Champions League with a 4-2 aggregate victory over Manchester City after a 2-1 defeat in the second leg of their quarter-final at the City Academy Stadium on Wednesday.
Congratulations, @FCBfemeni!
They will meet Lyon or Paris in the semi-finals on 24/25 April & 1/2 May, with Barcelona away in the first leg. pic.twitter.com/C03JmoC9B9
Bayern Munich's Poland striker Robert Lewandowski has been ruled out for four weeks after suffering a sprained ligament in his right knee, the German champions said on Tuesday.
Lewandowski sustained the injury in Poland's World Cup qualifying win over Andorra on Sunday, ruling him out of their match against England on Wednesday, and had scans on Monday.
For the third season in a row, it looks like Manchester City’s journey in the Women’s Champions League will reach its end at the hands of Spanish opposition. But after being beaten by Atlético Madrid the last two editions, this time it was Barcelona’s turn to put the hurt on City, winning 3-0 in their quarterfinal fist leg at the U-Power Stadium in Monza, Italy on Wednesday afternoon.
There are three Premier League teams still competing in the Champions League at the quarterfinal stage: Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool. Looking at the matchups, at least two of those three clubs are clear favorites to advance to the semifinals. Liverpool has the most difficult tie against the historical kings of the competition, Real Madrid.
The road to Istanbul is set!
