News about Niklas Sule

Fans have been left in awe of Niklas Sule's spectacular goal line clearance, which denied Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe a near-certain goal. After the attacker had gone through on goal during PSG's Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund, Sule was full stretch to deny Mbappe a goal. Now, as the smog has dispersed on the 1-1 draw, which saw both teams advance to the knockout stages, new perspectives of the dazzling clearance have emerged.

After the PSG winger had gone through on goal during their Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund, Niklas Sule pulled off a spectacular goal line clearance to deny Kylian Mbappe a goal. The Bundesliga outfit came into the game top of Group F, with the Parisians trailing them by three points. PSG will advance to the knockout stages of the tournament, and their World Cup champion could have scored a goal up, but Sule's heroics could have earned them a goal.

Newcastle's palpable sense of outrage will not be quenched by the revelation that UEFA has chosen not to follow plans on interpreting the handball statute that would have barred PSG from being eligible for their spot-kick. When it comes to handball penalty decisions, the issue lies in a discrepation between the Premier League and the Champions League. The rules are getting tighter in European competition, with Newcastle being the new victims.

PSG beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0 in their Champions League group stage opener, with Kylian Mbappe and Achraf Hakimi on target. After Niklas Sule was found to have handled the ball in the penalty area, the hosts snapped deadlock in the second half. Mbappe then stepped up and converted the spot kick. After working closely with Vitinha to unlock the Dortmund defense and slot home, Hakimi then doubled their lead in the 58th minute.

Following their humiliating 4-1 loss home against Japan in a friendly, German newspaper BILD have ordered that national team manager Hansi Flick be fired. It means that Germany has won just four games out of their last 17 games. Germany was knocked out in the group stage of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and they were lucky to qualify for Euro 2024 because the tournament will be hosted next year.

KING DOMINIC AT SIGNAL IDUNA PARK: It was all too much for him by the time. When his emotions took over, Jude Bellingham jogged his forehead and bit into a neon green bib. He was lying on the floor with a broken heart moments later. The dream of presenting the Bundesliga trophy to Borussia Dortmund had passed in front of his eyes, and there was nothing he could do to prevent it from happening. We know that football is the most rewarding sport in the world, but its cruelty enslaves you to the bone on days like this. Dortmund had wretchedly against Mainz in the game they had hoped to win and losing 2-1, but the trophy was in their hands for eight minutes later. Bayern Munich had lost the game against Cologne, but that was going to be enough.

Edin Terzic's side started the day off with a two-point lead over Bayern Munich, but Mainz was able to draw 2-2 on Saturday. They did have a fight back after being 2-0 down in less than 25 minutes, but Niklas Sule's 96th-minute equalizer was too late for the hosts to win what would have been a crown-clinching champion. Bellingham remained wiggish after the final whistle, as he clutched his shirt to his chest before shoving away an approaching television camera. The 19-year-old's third season in Germany has been his best to date, with the England starlet scoring 14 goals in 42 games in all competitions.

According to reports, Hansi Flick was accused of showing favouritism against Bayern Munich players in Qatar. Despite beating Costa Rica 4-2 in their last match of the World Cup, the 2014 champions fell out on the group stage for their second straight tournament, raising serious concerns about Flick's future. According to news in Germany, the national team was split into two camps at the tournament due to Flick's suspected partiality against Bayern Munich players.

IAN HERBERT: The demise of a major football nation has sparked the German newspaper Bild in the aftermath. The team coach pulled away from the mistle that had engulfed Al Bayt's stadium, and it seemed that the tone had been prevailing. Players seemed to be saying it was over every time you looked on Thursday night. Thomas Muller's gesture to the little enclave of Germans supporters seemed to be imbued with meaning. The 33-year-old would later call his fourth and final World Cup 'an absolute disaster.' Ilkay Gundogan said he didn't worry about his future, and Niklas Sule was similarly non-committal, though you may wonder how much money he's got for any more of this. Bastian Schweinsteiger, a symbol of times when the world feared Germany, erupted on national television over the Dortmund centre half's performances. I don't like it.' 'This is not healthy,' he said.

Even when the England defender is not playing, Rafael van der Vaart has continued his criticism of Harry Maguire. In just one of his many Maguire-related outbursts, the former Holland midfielder has experience in criticizing Maguire. This time, Van der Vaart was on punditry duty covering the World Cup, and somehow connected Germany's departure to Maguire.

By German newspaper Bild, the aftermath of Germany's humiliating departure from the World Cup in Qatar has been laid bare in excruciating detail. Fans of Hansi Flick's side, who finished third in their group behind Japan and Spain, from the moment the final whistle was blown four minutes before midnight to the bus's loaded for departure on Friday morning. It's the second straight World Cup in which Germany has failed to qualify in the knockout stages. Just over ten minutes after the game ended, after saying goodbye to fans on the ground, there was 'dead silence' in the dressing room, as German colleagues had no idea what to say to each other.

In their last game of Group E, Germany was surprisingly defeated 2-1 by Japan before losing a 2-1 draw against Costa Rica, who must now win to have a chance of advancement.

In Group E, Spain will face Germany, with both teams getting off to a rocky start in their respective World Cup campaigns. It couldn't have been any better for Spain after defeating Costa Rica 7-0 in one of the tournament's best performances so far.

After Germany's humiliating World Cup loss to Japan, they have been savaged by the media, with Chelsea's Kai Havertz and coach Hansi Flick strong criticized. Havertz received their second lowest possible score in their ratings for their 2-1 loss in Qatar on Wednesday, leaving Germany hanging on the possibility of another early departure. This embarrassing score was also given to Serge Gnabry and defensive trio Niklas Sule, David Raum, and Nico Schlotterbeck, who received a 5 star rating for his game plan.

At an international level, not many teams can beat Germany. However, Spain has a history of doing exactly as a result of the last two decades. Spain has come out on top four times in the last seven meetings between the two teams, losing only once. Spain has defeated their opponents in the Euro 2008 final and the 2010 World Cup semi-finals in South Africa during this time. Matches have often been decided by the unexpected result, with little to distinguish the European giants. That's until Spain's last game in the Nations League in November 2020, when they defeated Spain 6-0 in a thrillingly one-sided match.

Gio Reyna was overcome by emotion on Saturday after scoring his first club goal in over a year, as he curled in a stunning right-footed finish to put Borussia Dortmund up 3-0 before halftime. Reyna has had a lot of luck over the past year as he battled nagging hamstring injuries and was only allowed to begin just six league games last season. And the American hasn't been completely clear this season, as he was picked up in the first half of a USMNT friendly last month and hadn't played a single Bundesliga game until Saturday.

The second match-day of the Champions League has concluded, and there were some outstanding performances across Europe this week. Since his contribution and support for Paris Saint-Germain, Lionel Messi (right) joins the team.

On Wednesday evening, the Bundesliga outfit will face Manchester City in their second group-stage match, with both teams hoping to capitalize on their opening day victories in Europe. Pep Guardiola's City defeated Sevilla 4-0, while Dortmund beat Dortmund 3-0 at home to Copenhagen, with Pep Guardiola's City thriving. Dortmund is missing the goals of Haaland (left) as he scored 86 goals in 89 games during his two-year stay in Germany, while Pep Guardiola's side has also been superb, scoring 12 times in seven games in the Premier League and Champions League so far, according to the Norwegian striker. It's about a lot more than just Edin Terzic's side, who seem to be going through a turbulent transition period after losing key striker Haaland in the summer. Not only has Haaland left, but there's plenty of rumors about Jude Bellingham's departure from Dortmund for Real Madrid or Liverpool at the end of the season. With the funds earned from the auction of Haaland, the German outfit was able to bring in the likes of Sebastien Haller (inset left), Karim Adeyemi, Nico Schlotterbeck, Salih Ozcan, Niklas Sule, Marcel Lotka, Alexander Meyer, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, and Tom Rothe. After scoring 34 goals in all competitions last season, Haller's signature from Ajax was seen as the replacement for Haaland.
