Spy kids: Armageddon

Post a Comment

Manchester city completed the japan leg of our pre season tour with a 2-1 victory.

 In a goal made by our Academy, James McAtee opened the scoring midway through the first half after excellent work from Rico Lewis in the build up.



After Mathys Tel had equalised for the Bundesliga champions in the 81st minute, City responded through Aymeric Laporte to seal a second victory in as many games in Japan.

It was again a sold-out crowd at the Japan National Stadium for this meeting of two European heavyweights, just three days after attracting a capacity crowd to the same venue for our 5-3 win over Yokohama F. Marinos.

In fact, the 65,049 packed into the arena set a new record attendance for football at the National Stadium, opened in 2019.

We'll now move on to the South Korean capital of Seoul to face Atletico Madrid at 12:00 (UK) on Sunday.

WHAT HAPPENED

Both sides named strong lineups, with Bayern only making two changes from the side that lost at the Etihad Stadium in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-final last season. There were five changes to City's side from that April tie.

Donning the freshly released electric-feel PUMA third kit for the 2023/24 season, City had all the possession in the opening stages.

Steelers agree to a deal with former Jets Pro Bowl LB Kwon Alexander, per report.

The Steelers are adding a former Pro Bowl player to their roster. Pittsburgh has agreed to a one-year deal with veteran linebacker Kwon Alexander. Alexander had met with the Steelers back in May. Alexander, 28, was a fourth-round pick in the 2015 NFL Draft. He spent his first four seasons in Tampa Bay and was a Pro Bowler in 2017 after recording a league-high 108 solo tackles. In 2019, Alexander helped the 49ers reach the Super Bowl during his only full season in San Francisco.  He was traded to the Saints midway through the 2021 season before spending the entire 2022 season with the Jets. In New York, Alexander registered 69 tackles in 12 starts while playing in each of New York's 17 games. While he's proven to be a solid player, injuries have prevented Alexander from further success. He played in just 14 total games during the 2018-19 season while dealing with knee and chest injuries. A torn Achilles prematurely ended his 2021 season after 12 games.  The Steelers...

Women footballer world cup Spain vs England highlights.

  The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup came to a close Sunday (on FOX and the FOX Sports app) with a thrilling matchup at Sydney's Stadium Australia, where Spain defeated England 1-0 to win its first ever Women's World Cup title. Still a long way to go, but a good bit of stoppage time can be expected once this game reaches 90 minutes due to the lengthy VAR review, the multiple substitutions by Spain and a player down injured.   A lengthy VAR check sent the referee to the monitor to review a potential handball in the box against England's Keira Walsh. The ball struck Walsh's right hand as she lunged toward her right to impede Mariona Caldentey. The review took several minutes, and the end result was a penalty kick awarded to Spain — a massive, massive decision. Spain manager Vilda made his first change of the second half by replacing right-winger Alba Redondo with Oihane Hernandez, which was an interesting move considering Hernandez primarily plays as a defender. She was ...

Oleksandr Usyk vs Daniel Dubois: When is the fight, how to watch and the undercard line-up

  Ukraine’s reigning world heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk hit the scales 12 pounds lighter than British challenger Daniel Dubois at Friday’s weigh-in for today’s title clash in Wroclaw, Poland. Unbeaten Usyk, who holds the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO belts, came in at 100.2kg (220.9lbs) compared to his taller opponent’s 105.8kg (233.2lbs). The Ukrainian, who carries the hopes of a nation battling a Russian invasion, had weighed in at 100.5kg for his most recent fight against Britain’s Anthony Joshua a year ago in Saudi Arabia. “Maybe I’m not heavy like Daniel but I have different, I have heart,” said the 36-year-old Ukrainian, who has a 20-0 record and can count on his compatriots to make up most of the crowd at the open-air Tarczynski Arena. Dubois, 25 and with a professional record of 19 wins and one defeat, was first on the scales and at his lightest in six years, seven pounds lighter than at his most recent fight.
