John Terry praised his Chelsea teammates for their fighting spirit to earn a 3-3 draw against Everton at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, but “doesn’t really care” if his controversial late goal was offside. The Premier League champions went behind early in the second half when Leighton Baines’ cross was turned into his own net by Terry, with Kevin Mirallas making it 2-0. Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas then netted within 91 seconds of each other to set up a grandstand finish, though Ramiro Funes Mori thought he had won the game for Everton with a 91st-minute volley. But Terry made…
Real Madrid director general Jose Angel Sanchez has claimed that FIFA is looking into Premier League clubs over breaches of the same regulations that saw Atletico and Real Madrid given transfer window bans last week. FIFA’s disciplinary committee said the two Madrid clubs “violated several provisions concerning the international transfer and first registration” of players under 18 years of age and both were issued a transfer ban to last across two windows and fined. Barcelona served a similar ban over the same issue and have only just been allowed to register players again, but Sanchez gave a number of radio…
Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea has revealed in an interview with Sky Sports that he wants to stay with the club to become a legend at Old Trafford. De Gea, 25, had been close to completing a move to Real Madrid on deadline day in the summer transfer window but administrative errors meant he stayed in the Premier League. The Spain international signed a new four-year contract in September, but sources have told Theinfostride that Madrid are keen to revisit a move for the goalkeeper despite being handed a recent transfer ban from FIFA.
Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has broken the record for the most number of Premier League goals scored for one club, as he netted in the 1-0 win against Liverpool to overtake Arsenal legend Thierry Henry. Henry had managed 175 goals from 258 games for the Gunners, but Rooney had equalled the record by scoring twice against Newcastle in a 3-3 draw in midweek. The England captain, who scored 15 goals for Everton before joining the club for around £27 million in 2004, has now netted five times in United’s first four January fixtures and his career total now stands…
Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal claimed his 1-0 win over Liverpool courtesy of Wayne Rooney’s 78th-minute goal was a step in the right direction. While Rooney was the match-winner with the visitors’ only shot on target and David De Gea was the man who made the 1-0 win possible with a string of saves and was the far busier of the two goalkeepers. However, Rooney’s record breaking 176th Premier League goal was enough to hand United their third win from four games in 2016. “When you beat Liverpool, it is good for the fans and for the table as…
Napoli went four points clear at the top of Serie A on Saturday as Gonzalo Higuain scored twice in a 3-1 win over Sassuolo, taking his tally to 20 goals in as many top flight games this season. Until Saturday’s clash in Naples, impressive Sassuolo had gone unbeaten against five of this season’s title challengers having claimed wins over Napoli, Juventus and Inter and drawn with Roma and Fiorentina. But Higuain, who is well on his way to this season’s Capocannoniere (top scorer) award, did brilliantly to give Napoli a 42nd minute lead after Jose Callejon’s 19th minute header cancelled…
Gary Neville’s winless streak as Valencia boss in La Liga stretched to six games as despite Paco Alcacer’s late strike they could only manage 2-2 draw at home to relegation threatened Rayo Vallecano on Sunday. Los Che were heavily favoured to end a two-month run without a league win against a Rayo side that has lost six of their last seven league games – conceding 23 goals in the process. However, the visitors dominated the opening 45 minutes and were given a deserved lead when Jozabed swept home Adrian Embarba’s cross on the volley. Neville had opted for Alvaro Negredo…
Manuel Pellegrini believes the all-round strength of his squad could have a key role to play in the second half of the season after seeing his side re-ignite their Premier League title challenge with a 4-0 win over Crystal Palace. Saturday’s match at the Etihad saw Manchester City score four goals in a game for the eighth time this season as they reinforced their position as the leading scorers at home in the league. Sergio Aguero signalled his return to something like top form with two of those goals but Pellegrini took particular delight in securing such an emphatic victory…
Everton manager Roberto Martinez blamed a “heartbreaking” refereeing decision after his side were denied victory over Chelsea by a contentious 98th-minute equaliser in Saturday’s 3-3 draw between the teams. Everton led 2-0 and 3-2 at Stamford Bridge and looked to have the three points in the bag after Ramiro Funes Mori put them ahead in the 91st minute. But after the 97 minutes of allotted stoppage time had elapsed, Chelsea captain John Terry flicked in a back-heeled equaliser from what appeared to be an offside position to leave Martinez fuming. “It’s a clear-cut offside that should have been spotted,” said…
Chelsea striker Diego Costa was taken to hospital after injuring his shin in his side’s eventful 3-3 draw with Everton on Saturday, interim manager Guus Hiddink revealed. “He’s in the hospital and they will have a scan,” Hiddink told reporters at Stamford Bridge. “We don’t know the result yet and I hope it’s not bad. It’s on his shin. He was in a lot of pain, that’s true.” Costa, 27, was replaced by Loic Remy in the 80th minute after hurting himself in a challenge on Leighton Baines. He had earlier scored in the 64th minute to spark a comeback…
Chelsea face an anxious wait after striker Diego Costa was hospitalised during a crazy 3-3 draw with Everton that saw John Terry score for both sides at Stamford Bridge. The Spain forward had already hobbled off with a shin injury, having earlier scored, when Terry found the net in the 98th minute from an offside position. Chelsea interim manager Guus Hiddink admitted he was crossing his fingers that Costa was not seriously injured, but made it clear that he was in no hurry to sign another striker this month in case of a lengthy lay-off. “He’s in the hospital and…
Wayne Rooney smashed home Manchester United’s winning goal after 78 minutes with one of the few moments of real class to give them the points in an otherwise drab north west derby against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday. Rooney was perfectly placed to volley past Simon Mignolet score after a header from Marouane Fellaini bounced back off the crossbar. He has now scored in four successive games. There was little of note in a poor first half in which United failed to create a scoring chance. The match improved a little as a spectacle after the break with United keeper…
