拉米雷斯谈12年欧冠决赛:丢球后不少球迷都去了厕所

虎扑4月3日讯 近日前切尔西中场拉米雷斯接受了442足球网站的采访,谈到了2012年切尔西对阵拜仁的欧冠决赛。

拉米雷斯现在效力于帕尔梅拉斯,他在切尔西与巴塞罗那的半决赛第二回合比赛中打进了关键的一球,但因为在这场比赛中拿到了黄牌,他将无缘参加决赛。

据他透露直到半决赛结束坐进更衣室才知道自己将错过决赛。

“我没有想过,老实说,我甚至没有意识到,当我们进入更衣室的时候,我才知道我不能上场。每个人都在庆祝,有人说特里、伊万诺维奇、梅雷莱斯和我都将错过决赛。”

谈比赛的曲折过程:“我真的很紧张!我踢了东西,我尖叫着,咒骂着。当拜仁进球时,已经过了第80分钟,一些球迷甚至跑去撒尿了。”
“但是当德罗巴进球的时候,我们就像是复仇了。这是一个快乐到爆炸的时刻!特里站在座位上开始庆祝。”
“当德罗巴主罚最后一个点球的时候,我很有信心,因为德罗巴是我们的最佳点球手。全场比赛结束后,我们真的欣喜若狂。”

此外他还透露是俱乐部让每个人在赛前都把队服换好,为最后拍合照做好准备。

Duyệt chi đậm hơn vụ Wan-Bissaka, MU quyết giành Haaland với Real Madrid

​Nguồn tin từ ESPN cho hay ​Manchester United sẽ trở lại theo đuổi Erling Haaland trong kỳ chuyển nhượng mùa Hè 2020.

Hồi tháng Giêng vừa qua, “Quỷ đỏ” từng thất bại trong việc mang cầu thủ người Na Uy về với sân Old Trafford. Lý do chính đã được chính bố của Haaland, ông chia sẻ ​Alf-Inge Haaland cách đây không lâu.

Erling Haaland

Kể từ khi đến với Dortmund, Haaland tiếp tục cho thấy phong độ ấn tượng với việc ghi 12 bàn thắng trên mọi đấu trường dù mới chỉ ra sân 11 trận đấu. Lúc này, anh đang được khá nhiều CLB lớn tại châu Âu theo đuổi trong đó có MU và ​Real Madrid.

Theo tin từ ESPN, Real Madrid đã sẵn sàng bỏ ra 63 triệu bảng để mang Haaland về Bernabeu vào mùa Hè tới. Vì thế, Man United cũng vào cuộc và sẵn sàng chi từng ấy tiền để cạnh tranh với đội bóng Hoàng gia, thậm chí là chi đậm hơn. Mùa Hè năm ngoái, đội bóng này mua hậu vệ Aaron Wan-Bissaka từ Crystal Palace chỉ với mức giá 50 triệu bảng.

Erling Haaland

Điểm bất lợi nhất của đội bóng đến từ Manchester có lẽ là mối quan hệ với siêu cò Mino Raiola, đại diện chính của Haaland. Ngược lại, Raiola đã từng đưa nhiều ngôi sao đến Real và có mối quan hệ cực tốt với Chủ tịch Florentino Perez.

BWF beku ranking dunia susulan pandemik COVID-19

KUALA LUMPUR: Persekutuan Badminton Dunia (BWF) mengambil keputusan untuk membekukan ranking dunia dan ranking remaja dunia susulan penggantungan kejohanan antarabangsa mulai pertengahan Mac lalu akibat pandemik COVID-19.

Badan induk dunia itu, dalam kenyataan hari ini, memaklumkan pembekuan ranking dunia akan dikembalikan kepada minggu ke-12 iaitu kejohananan antarabangsa terakhir, All England 2020 di Birmingham, England dari 11 hingga 15 Mac lalu.

Ia berkata senarai ranking yang dikeluarkan pada 17 Mac akan menyediakan asas untuk pendafataran dan menentukan pemain pilihan pada kejohanan antarabangsa akan datang.

“Buat masa ini, sukar untuk diramalkan bila kejohanan antarabangsa seterusnya akan diadakan dengan kejohanan pada Mei dan Jun dijangka ditangguhkan,” kata BWF.

BWF berkata Suruhanjaya Atlet menyokong penuh pembekuan ranking dunia sambil menambah bahawa prosedur yang tepat untuk menarik balik pembekuan akan ditentukan berdasarkan maklumat kalendar kejohanan yang kini disemak semula.

Bagaimanapun, menurut BWF, pembekuan ranking dunia itu tidak diguna pakai untuk sistem kelayakan Sukan Olimpik Tokyo 2020 yang ditangguh kepada tahun depan.- BERNAMA

Ada Ronaldo, Sagna Yakin Pogba Bakal Tergoda untuk Gabung Juventus : Okezone Bola

LONDON – Mantan pemain Arsenal, Bacary Sagna, ikut memberikan tanggapan soal rumor masa depan Paul Pogba bersama Manchester United. Sagna yakin bahwa Pogba bakal tergoda untuk hengkang ke Juventus pada bursa transfer musim panas 2020, lantaran ingin bermain bersama Cristano Ronaldo.

Ya, Pogba diklaim cedera sejak akhir tahun lalu dan belum juga memperkuat Man United hingga kompetisi dihentikan sementara karena penyebaran virus Corona (Covid-19). Padahal di media sosial, Pogba nampak sehat dan tak mengalami masalah pada fisiknya.

Paul Pogba

Hal itulah yang lantas memunculkan rumor bahwa Pogba bakal segera angkat kaki dari Old Trafford. Sejumlah klub papan atas macam Real Madrid, Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), dan tentunya Juve menaruh minat untuk merekrutnya di bursa transfer musim panas 2020.

Sagna pun memiliki satu tim yang dinilainya paling berpeluang memenangi perburuan tanda tangan Pogba di musim panas ini. Sagna menilai Juve adalah tim yang disebutnya sangat besar bisa mendapatkan Pogba.

Alasan Sagna menilai Juve adalah kandidat terkuat klub selanjutnya Pogba sendiri cukup masuk akal. Ya, Sagna berujar bahwa Pogba bakal lebih memilih untuk ‘mudik’ ke Juve, lantaran ingin merasakan satu tim bersama Ronaldo.

“Saya bisa melihat Paul kembali ke Juventus pada musim panas ini. Saya yakin bahwa Pogba akan memutuskan untuk kembali bergabung dengan Juventus karena ada Cristiano di sana,” ucap Sagna, seperti disadur dari Soccerway, Kamis (2/4/2020).

“Juventus merupakan klub yang berhasil menaikkan namanya menjadi seorang salah satu pemain bintang. Selain itu, Pogba terlihat masih sangat mencintai Juventus dan ia tahu bahwa ia juga sangat dicintai di sana,” tutup pria berusia 37 tahun itu.

Arsenal 2-1 Barcelona: The Gunners’ Classic UCL Comeback vs Guardiola’s Glorious Barça Side

In the immediate aftermath of the 2011 Champions League round of 16 draw, you might have forgiven the pained grimaces found upon Arsenal fans’ faces. Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona, who were undisputedly the world’s greatest footballing side of the time, were coming to town.

Could Arsène Wenger roll back the years and inspire his youthful side to produce one of the memorable European nights in the club’s history? Many (understandably, it must be said) were unable to imagine achieving such a feat. And yet…

Everyone associated with Arsenal could do nothing but hope their prayers might somehow be answered. Perhaps their opponents would have an uncharacteristically disappointing day at the office? Or better still, what if Wenger’s side found a way, any way to provide their supporters with a magical night in north London?

Well, as we all know, the Gunners’ prayers were answered and then some as they staged a scintillating late comeback to win the first leg 2-1. While they would controversially exit the tournament in the second leg, this was arguably the greatest night the Emirates has ever witnessed.

Arsenal's Russian midfielder Andrey Arsh

Having trailed 1-0 for the majority of the 90 minutes, the Gunners rode the Barça storm, grew into the game, and were rewarded as Robin van Persie struck an equaliser in the 78th minute.

And then, five minutes later, substitute Andrey Arshavin sent ​Arsenal fans into a frenzy, and the Emirates into sheer and utter ecstasy after he netted the dramatic winner. The result on the night, the performance, and the dramatic manner in which the contest unfolded marks this game as one of the greatest moments in Arsenal’s recent history.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say this match continues to send shivers down the spines of many an Arsenal fan. We promise we don’t excessively hold onto moments of our club’s past, though…


Arsenal

Key Talking Point

Some would say Arsenal got a tad lucky to come away with a 2-1 victory. And maybe it was a slightly fortunate affair. But, at the end of the day, the Gunners stuck to their pure passing principles, and ultimately outdid Barça at their own game.

There’s no denying the incomparable quality that this ​Barcelona side were blessed with at the time. Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets were, as a central midfield triumvirate, on their own divine level. Chuck Dani Alves into the mix, and a certain Argentinian up front – you’ve got yourself quite a technically gifted team.

Cesc Fabregas

But, Wenger saw his side stick to what they did best, and managed to match the majestic midfield of their opposition with an outstanding midfield performance of their own. And, with Barça rocking, Arsenal reaped the rewards of their relentlessness to produce a truly remarkable result.


Arsenal Player Ratings

Starting XI: Szczesny (8); Eboue (7), Djourou (7), Koscielny (8), Clichy (7); Song (7), Wilshere (9*); Walcott (7), Fabregas (8), Nasri (7); van Persie (7)

Substitutes: Arshavin (8), Bendtner (7)


Jack Wilshere

He was only 19-years-old at the time, but ​Jack Wilshere produced the performance of a lifetime that was not only beyond his years, but more than a match for Barça’s excellent midfield trio.

The young Englishman competed for anything and everything. He won his duels, he moved the ball through the lines expertly, and quite honestly couldn’t be contained by the likes of Xavi and Iniesta.

Arsenal's midfielder Jack Wilshere (R) v

Put simply, this was one of the great individual performances of any Arsenal player down the years. Supremely confident and incomparably complete, Wilshere well and truly set the Emirates alight that night. If you haven’t watched his individual highlights, get to it as soon as is humanly possible.


Barcelona

Key Talking Point

Now, we must be careful not to take anything away from Arsenal’s excellent result. They deserved it for the dogged determination and resilience they showed prior to putting Barça to the sword in spectacular fashion.

But, it is true that Catalan giants could have been out of sight had their forwards been a fraction more clinical in the final third. For all the issues he caused Arsenal on the night, ​Lionel Messi was guilty of wasting several golden opportunities to put the tie out of the Gunners’ reach.

Lionel Messi

Wenger’s troops survived some real heart-in-mouth moments as Messi poked wide here, and scored an offside-goal there, and Pep Guardiola’s side were ultimately punished for their wastefulness in front of goal.


Barcelona Player Ratings

Starting XI: Valdes (6); Alves (7), Pique (6), Abidal (6), Maxwell (5); Busquets (5), Xavi (7), Iniesta (6); Villa (7), Messi (7*), Pedro (6)

Substitutes: Keita (5), Adriano (N/A)


Lionel Messi

On another day, Messi may have scored two or three. But thankfully for the Arsenal, the diminutive Argentine magician left his shooting boots in Barcelona for this one.

But, such is the quality of his overall game, Messi remained a real thorn in Arsenal’s side, and each and every threat carried by Barça sprung from a mesmeric Messi run, a wonderful pass, or a dazzling dribble.

David Villa,Lionel Messi

It was his incisive, defence-splitting through-ball that set David Villa on his way for the opening goal, and even if he ought to have scored at least once, the threat he carried with the ball at his feet even if he didn’t find the back of the net was a joy to witness.


What Aged the Best

Lionel Messi’s Hair

Right, let’s not be overly harsh on the Argentine. He was only 24 at the time (yeah, let that sink in for a second!) so he was within his rights to have a slightly dodgy trim at the time. Thankfully the G.O.A.T has sorted it out now, because the mop on top of his head wasn’t a great look.

Lionel Messi

Maybe that’s why he lacked his clinical edge in front of goal. Actually maybe not – he had the same haircut in the second leg, and scored twice. Probably wasn’t the hair then.


What Aged the Worst

Jack Wilshere’s Potential

Take nothing away from Wilshere for what he managed that night. He showed the world was at his feet given he was capable of competing with the world’s best players on Europe’s biggest stage. It wasn’t just Arsenal fans getting giddy with excitement – England had themselves their own midfield maestro who, at 19-years-old, had given the likes of Xavi and Iniesta a real run-around.

Jack Wilshere

Unfortunately, relentless injuries and fitness issues prevented him from building on such a brilliant individual performances. We never quite got to see Wilshere fulfil his potential, and what might have become on one of Arsenal and England’s great hopes.


Players You Completely Forgot Existed

Johan Djourou

Barcelona's Argentinian forward Lionel M

We forgive you if you’d forgotten that Djourou started in the centre of Arsenal’s defence on the night. The often erratic Swiss international put in an admirable defensive performance as he helped keep Messi and co at bay. It was one of the high points of his 140-appearance Arsenal career before he packed his bags for good in 2014.

Adriano

Arsenal's French defender Bacary Sagna (

Thought we might as well chuck in a Barça player too, and the case of Adriano is quite a funny one. It’s not his fault his name was synonymous with one of Brazil’s greats – you’d anticipate a Brazilian named Adriano to be quite the player. Not that he was that bad – he fulfilled his squad role admirably, and good on him for cutting it at the Nou Camp for six seasons. He’s just an easy one to forget, that’s all.


What Happened Next

Unfortunately for Arsenal, the return leg at Camp Nou brought their hopes of quarter-final progression crashing down. Barça ended up 3-1 winners, but the Gunners were at the receiving end of a disastrous refereeing decision that essentially killed the game at a crucial moment in the tie. 

Robin van Persie had just struck the equaliser on the night to take the second leg to 1-1 – Arsenal had an invaluable away goal, and with half an hour to go, it became a real possibility that the ​Premier League side might complete a sensational upset.

Robin van Persie,Massimo Busacca

Well, after Van Persie was shown a ​second yellow card for continuing to play after failing to hear the referee’s whistle, the tie swung Barça’s way, and they put Arsenal’s ten men to the sword. Wenger and his aggrieved side exited Europe, and Barça went on to win the 2011 ​Champions League.

Unjust, unfair, but at least we had a night to remember. It’s just a shame its legacy was somewhat tarnished by the ridiculous refereeing of the second leg. Oh well.

Nhờ Ed Woodward, Man United không thiếu tiền giữa đại dịch Covid-19

​Tình hình dịch bệnh tại châu Âu khiến nhiều đội bóng rơi vào cảnh thiếu thốn ngân sách, nhưng ​Manchester United vẫn có đủ tiền để xoay sở. Vậy lý do nằm ở đâu?

Những năm qua, các CĐV Man United luôn chỉ trích việc Phó chủ tịch Ed Woodward chỉ quan tâm đến những bản hợp đồng mang giá trị thương mại mà không chú trọng đến chuyên môn của cầu thủ, dẫn đến chất lượng đội hình của “Quỷ đỏ” đi xuống.

Ed Woodward

Mặc dù vậy, Ed Woodward vẫn giữ vững quan điểm của ông và thời điểm này, khi dịch bệnh hoành hành người ta nhận ra hướng đi đúng đắn của vị Phó chủ tịch. Theo SportMail, MU không chịu áp lực quá lớn về tài chính trong giai đoạn khó khăn này bởi họ có doanh thu lớn từ các bản hợp đồng thương mại. 

Đó là nguồn thu ổn định, khác với 2 nguồn thu khác là bán vé và bản quyền truyền hình vốn bị ảnh hưởng lớn bởi Covid-19. Một phân tích của chuyên gia trên SportMail chỉ ra rằng:

“United bị chỉ trích về các bản hợp đồng quảng cáo nhưng các đội bóng lớn đều tăng lợi nhuận theo cách này. Sự hợp tác về thương mại mang lại sự ổn định lâu dài. Không có chỗ cho sự thỏa mãn bởi đây là thách thức lớn cho nền công nghiệp bóng đá. Nó rất khác với những gì chúng ta thấy trước đây. United có sự ổn định hơn hầu hết nhờ sức mạnh kinh doanh”.

Ed Woodward,Alex Ferguson - Soccer Coach

Thật vậy, báo cáo tài chính của MU được công bố tháng 7 năm ngoái cho thấy hợp đồng quảng cáo mang về cho họ 173 triệu bảng trong tổng số 275 triệu bảng doanh thu từ hoạt động thương mại. Trong khi đó, doanh số từ bản quyền truyền hình là 241 triệu bảng và tiền bán vé là 111 triệu bảng.

Những con số thống kê cũng chỉ ra rằng doanh thu từ hoạt động thương mại của “Quỷ đỏ” cao hơn Man City đến 50 triệu bảng, và cao hơn Liverpool tận 94 triệu bảng. Ở mùa giải này, những con số đó tiếp tục tăng cao hơn nữa nhưng chưa được tiết lộ.

Nửa đỏ thành Manchester hiện có tới 61 hợp đồng quảng cáo trên toàn thế giới, trong đó có thể kể ra những bản hợp đồng triệu bảng như: Chevrolet (64 triệu bảng), Kohler Co (20 triệu bảng), AON (15 triệu bảng) và Aeroflot (7 triệu bảng).
