Douglas Luiz commits football's most unforgivable act and is slammed for his 'lack of bravery' - just seconds after coming off the bench in Juventus Champions League clash

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 3, 2024
Juventus midfielder Douglas Luiz made an instant impact after coming off the bench in his side's 3-2 win over RB Leipzig, although it was not the kind his manager envisioned when he threw him on. The Italian giants continued their revival under Thiago Motta with an impressive win in Germany, despite playing with 10 men for the last half an hour. Luiz, who signed from Aston Villa in the summer, was sent onto the pitch just past the hour with the scores level at 1-1, after goals from Benjamin Sesko and Dusan Vlahovic.

Why Arsenal DON'T need a new striker: Mikel Arteta's side scored 91 goals last season in a system tailor-made for his wingers while Kai Havertz's stats are not getting the attention they deserve

www.dailymail.co.uk, August 20, 2024
Benjamin Sesko. Ivan Toney. Viktor Gyokeres. Victor Osimhen. Aleksander Isak. Those are just a few of the numerous strikers that Arsenal have been linked with since last summer.  Sesko in particular seemed the closest, with reports suggesting personal terms were agreed in principle before the summer, only for the Slovenian forward to fluff his lines at the European Championship.  Toney, too, was heavily linked with a move in absentia as he spent months on the sidelines after a ban for breaching betting rules, but it would appear his destiny lies elsewhere after missing out from Brentford's squad at the weekend. 

A Swiss winger England must be wary of, a goalkeeper who has gone home - and NO Three Lions players at all... who makes Sofascore's BEST XI from the last-16 stage at Euro 2024?

The round of 16 brought us all the glorious ornaments of elite tournament football - the magnificence of Jude Bellingham 's goal, the hope of Georgia being crushed to despair, the shock of champions Italy being sent packing, and the attacking masterclass of the Netherlands.

Fans mock linesman for running on the pitch during Portugal's dramatic win over Slovenia... as footage shows him sprinting on the wing before Benjamin Sesko's crucial one-on-one miss

Football fans hilariously mocked one of the linesmen officiating Portugal's Euro 2024 last-16 victory over Slovenia on Monday after footage showed them running on the pitch during the game. A highly eventful evening at the Frankfurt Arena saw Portugal eventually advance to the quarter-finals of the competition via a penalty shootout. Cristiano Ronaldo was left in tears as his penalty miss deep in extra time risked Portugal being knocked out the European Championship before he made amends in the shootout.

England look like a mixture of a team that is scared to death and tired out, writes OLIVER HOLT after a dire draw with Slovenia that was worthy of a stream of more four-letter words

www.dailymail.co.uk, June 25, 2024
OLIVER HOLT IN COLOGNE: England finished top of the Group of Dearth courtesy of a dire, drab, dull draw with Slovenia that was worthy of a stream of more four-letter words. The point they earned meant they will now play the equivalent of a lucky loser in the last 16. They are also on the side of the draw denuded of Germany, Portugal, France and Spain. The catch is that if they keep playing like this, they are going absolutely nowhere except home after the first knock-out game, which may be against the Netherlands, Turkey or the Czech Republic.

Slovenia warn England they are ready to shoot on sight in crunch Euro 2024 clash as Benjamin Sesko and Co look to capitalise on the Three Lions' poor pressing

www.dailymail.co.uk, June 24, 2024
CRAIG HOPE: Slovenia have warned England they will be taking shots from distance - because they don't believe Gareth Southgate's side will bother to close them down. The only goal the Three Lions have conceded here in Germany was when Denmark midfielder Morten Hjulmand took aim from 30 yards during last Thursday's 1-1 draw in Frankfurt. Much has been made of England's inability to press opponents - captain Harry Kane said they didn't know who was supposed to go and when - and the Slovenians say they are ready to exploit that weakness, especially striker Benjamin Sesko and his lethal right boot.

Revealed: How England can qualify for Euro 2024 last-16 TODAY... but is a draw against Denmark enough?

www.dailymail.co.uk, June 20, 2024
It feels like England can't spend more than three seconds ahead in a tournament match before someone starts shouting 'It's coming home!'. As a nation without the tournament pedigree historically to justify consistently being regarded as favourites - as Zlatko Dalic pointed out - we do seem extremely quick to pull the trigger on that particular chant.  However, whether it be poorly-aimed attempts at manifesting our destiny, mindless optimism or unconscious muscle memory, we are notoriously quick to sing our own praises.

www.dailymail.co.uk, June 6, 2024
SIMON JONES: Chelsea are monitoring developments with Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin as they assess forward targets this summer. The 27-year old is among a number of options Chelsea are considering with Red Bull Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko also on the list. Arsenal have held talks over Sesko while Manchester United have made their interest known and the 21-year old has already rejected two offers from Saudi Arabia as he ponders his next step. Sesko has a clause, though that can reach around £59.5million depending on performance, and would be considerably more expensive than Calvert-Lewin, who has one year left on contract.
