Football: Liverpool's miracle comeback trumps Spurs', say fans in Singapore

SINGAPORE - Tottenham Hotspur's comeback win over Ajax in the Champions League on Wednesday (May 8) was incredible, but it was no Miracle of Anfield from the day before.
That was the consensus of fans The Straits Times spoke to, who pointed to Liverpool's 4-0 thumping of Lionel Messi-led Barcelona as being more impressive than Spurs' 3-2 win in Amsterdam.
Both English sides had trailed their respective ties 3-0, but overturned the deficit to book their spot in the June 1 final at the Wanda Metropolitano Arena in Madrid.
Elliott Danker, senior presenter on Money FM 89.3, said: "Even as a Manchester United fan, I have to give it to Liverpool.
"When you consider they're also fighting for the Premier League and that race has gone down to the wire, and with the thought they might end the season empty-handed playing at the back of their minds... To overcome that is so impressive.
"The moment I went into office the next day and saw a few of my colleagues who are Liverpool fans, I had to tell them: Respect."
Arsenal fan and Singapore Management University undergraduate Victoria Lim, 23, added: "We got to see the power of Liverpool playing at Anfield. They played with so much passion, grit and belief. It was a great match and comeback, regardless of which club you support.
"When they sang (club anthem You'll Never Walk Alone) after the match, I got goosebumps."
A Twitter poll conducted by the @STsportsdesk account saw almost three quarters of the over 600 respondents pick Liverpool's result as the more impressive.
United fan Vighnesh Vasanthanathan, 25, said the quality of opponent was what made the Reds' triumph more remarkable.
"At the end of the day, Ajax are a team still growing in maturity," said the Republic Polytechnic student. "They had youth everywhere on the pitch, and when it mattered most, Spurs had the experienced players to give them the edge and win the game."
The final in Madrid will be the first between two English teams since 2008, when United beat Chelsea on penalties, and Newcastle United fan 'Irfan Rahman, 32, believes it reflects the current strength of the Premier League.
"To me, it shows the Premier League is the best league in the world," said the assistant executive. "When you consider Liverpool and Spurs have both not won the Premier League title but are now in the Champions League final, it shows just how competitive the league is."
Whether the EPL is the best in the world is debatable, said Danker, 37, but it is "the most entertaining and most talked-about."
He added: "An all-English Champions League final, and Liverpool making their second in a row, will make (that reputation) better.
"Plus, last year England reached their first World Cup semi-final since 1990.
"Maybe fans can now expect Ballon d'Or winners and other world-class players moving to the Premier League soon."

What's next for crippled Spurs?

What's next for crippled Spurs?

LONDON • Absolutely devastating. That was the reaction of former Tottenham forward Chris Waddle to the news Harry Kane would be ruled out for at least two months after suffering ankle ligament damage during the 1-0 Premier League loss to Manchester United over the weekend.
Spurs' prospects of winning a first trophy under manager Mauricio Pochettino this season suffered a significant blow on Tuesday when the club announced Kane - the league's joint-top scorer on 14 goals - was "expected to return to training in early March".
"Following preliminary assessments, we can confirm that @HKane has damaged ligaments in his left ankle," an official Spurs tweet read. "He will continue to be monitored by our medical staff as he commences rehabilitation."
The England captain tweeted in response that while "injuries are part of the game, no one will be working harder to get back fit".
The talismanic striker could possibly miss 12 matches, including a potential League Cup final, both legs of their Champions League last-16 tie against Borussia Dortmund, and seven league games, as Spurs strive to keep up with leaders Liverpool and Manchester City.
The 25-year-old is no stranger to ankle problems, having endured time on the sidelines in the last three years and missing seven weeks in 2016 in what was his most significant spell out.
However, with Tottenham 1-0 up in the first leg of their League Cup semi-final against Chelsea, his absence this time is untimely.
Pochettino, who has yet to deliver silverware since joining the club in 2014, is already without Son Heung-min - potentially until Feb 1 - while he plays for South Korea at the Asian Cup, and he has ruled out reintroducing out-of-favour Vincent Janssen to the first team.
That leaves Lucas Moura, who should return at Fulham on Sunday after knee trouble, and Fernando Llorente - who has in effect been available for transfer and has been the subject of interest from Barcelona - as his strike options for the foreseeable future.
The club had not anticipated entering the market this month and it remains to be seen if that policy shifts in the wake of Kane's injury.
Waddle told BBC Radio 5 Live it was now imperative for Spurs to bolster their front line in the transfer window and prevent their season from petering out.
He said: "I'm sure they're looking around Europe. Could they get someone on loan to tick them over until the end of the season?"
However, The Mirror claimed that Spurs could instead splash the cash with Bournemouth's Callum Wilson mooted as a possibility.
While the Cherries have reportedly slapped a £75 million (S$130.6 million) asking price on the England forward to ward off any suitors, Sky Sports said Spurs have "admired" the 26-year-old for some time.
His nine league goals in 20 appearances this season have fired his club to mid-table safety and Sky Sports pundit Liam Rosenior felt Wilson would be the "perfect fit" to fill Kane's shoes.
The former Brighton defender added: "He is of a profile where he would be delighted to have the chance to play for a club like Spurs.
"He gives them the pace to run in behind. I wouldn't be surprised if they put a marker down, and show they want to keep Pochettino and build for the future."

Football: Former England star Paul Gascoigne faces assault trial for kissing incident

LONDON (AFP) - Former England footballer Paul Gascoigne will stand trial for sexual assault in October after allegedly kissing a woman without consent on a train, a judge ruled on Tuesday (Jan 8).
The 51-year-old ex-Tottenham and Lazio player was arrested on a train between York and Newcastle in August.
He appeared at Teesside Crown Court in Middlesbrough in north-east England to formally enter a not guilty plea, the Press Association news agency reported.
His lawyer Michelle Heeley told the court that a number of character witnesses will give evidence "about his propensity to kiss people in a non-sexual manner".
Gascoigne, who has struggled with alcoholism since he retired from top-flight football, wore a blue suit and an open-neck shirt and spoke out during the hearing.
"I'm worried to bits. I'm scared," Gascoigne told judge Simon Bourne-Arton, who granted him unconditional bail.
When told he would have to turn up for the trial, Gascoigne said: "I cannot wait. I have done nothing wrong".
The trial on one charge of "sexual assault by touching" is set to be held on Oct 14.
Gascoigne - known as "Gazza" - made his name with Newcastle before going on to play for Tottenham, Italian giants Lazio and several other teams including Rangers.

 
The midfielder, widely regarded as one of the most talented players of his generation, was also a key member of the England side that reached the semi-finals of the 1990 World Cup in Italy. He won 57 caps in total.
Gascoigne was one of the first big-name footballers to arrive in China when he made the shock decision to be a player-coach of second division Gansu Tianma in 2003 but he lasted just a handful of games.
In an interview published on Tottenham's website last year, he said: "Sometimes when I look back and people say to me 'do you regret anything in your career'?
"Perhaps I left Spurs too early. I loved it there. The players, the staff, everyone was class and the team spirit was phenomenal, absolute class. We had a great team."

Spurs must be consistent to fight for title: Pochettino

Spurs must be consistent to fight for title: Pochettino

LONDON • Mauricio Pochettino urged caution over Tottenham's title prospects, but admitted his team could rival Liverpool and Manchester City for the Premier League crown, provided they maintain the form that demolished Everton 6-2 at Goodison Park on Sunday.
Spurs inflicted the heaviest defeat of Marco Silva's Everton tenure with an outstanding display that featured two goals apiece for Harry Kane and Son Heung-min.
The South Korea international Son was applauded off by the home fans, such was his impact on a chastening afternoon for Everton and another demonstration of why Pochettino is coveted by Manchester United.
The Argentinian coach again refused to discuss "rumours" about a potential move to Old Trafford next summer and, though wary of talking up Spurs' title prospects, claimed consistency could make them a reality.
Pochettino said: "I still believe Liverpool and Manchester City are the real contenders and favourites to win the Premier League.
"We are there but so are Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United. I think there is still a long way for me to say we are real contenders.
"Football is about being consistent of course. If we are able to be consistent and play in the way we did tonight, I think yes, maybe we could then be a real contender.
"We are involved in four competitions.


  • 4 




  • Consecutive wins for Tottenham in the Premier League, a run that has taken them to within two points of champions Man City, and six adrift of leaders Liverpool.


"I think we surprised everyone today with the energy and quality we showed which was amazing after playing Arsenal (in the League Cup) on Wednesday."
The Spurs manager said he was "proud" of the performance and that his team are getting closer to challenging for the championship.
He added: "If you compare the result with the past of Tottenham, then yes we were consistent, but not enough to be a real contender.
"Two seasons ago, when we were fighting with Leicester… the gap was so big with different teams that won the Premier League: Chelsea or Manchester City last season.
"Now we are close but we need to be cautious, go step by step, game by game.
"We need to be conscious about that, we need to fight a lot, and there is still a long way for work and to be consistent."
Spurs host eighth-placed Bournemouth at Wembley tomorrow and Dele Alli will almost certainly miss the match with a hamstring injury after being substituted at half-time following a bad challenge from Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.
"He didn't feel a big problem. Maybe a little bit tired from Wednesday. I think he's going to be okay, but we need to assess him tomorrow," said Pochettino.

Gattuso livid with Milan's shock exit

Gattuso livid with Milan's shock exit
ATHENS • AC Milan coach Gennaro Gattuso slammed his players for "making fools of ourselves" after bowing out of the Europa League following their shock 3-1 loss at Olympiakos.
"We gifted the game," he said after Thursday's Group F defeat in Athens, where all the goals came in the second half.
Pape Abou Cisse opened the scoring for the Greek side, whose lead was doubled after an own goal by Cristian Zapata.
The defender made amends by pulling one back for Milan, but Konstantinos Fortounis' penalty sealed the victory for the home side.
Gattuso also bemoaned the brittle nature of the seven-time European champions, who simply went to pieces after missing several opportunities to score.
"We were too naive and allowed Olympiakos to get back into the game. We are very upset because we always make the same mistakes again and again," he said.
"We had the game in our hands but, if you create seven or eight chances in a stadium like this and then fall apart the moment things go wrong, you deserve to go out."


  • 17


    Years since seven-time European champions AC Milan were knocked out of European competition at a group stage (Champions League in 2001) before Thursday's Europa League exit.


The former Italy midfielder, however, refused to blame the hostile atmosphere at the Karaiskaki Stadium, or the refereeing decisions which went against his team.
"You can talk about the referee, about them throwing extra balls on to the pitch and the strange trumpet noise, but we should focus on what we can do to make Milan a better team," he added.
"We have to look at ourselves. They were better than us because they were energetic and determined. I apologise to all the Milan fans around the world for not having achieved our objective."
The last-32 draw will be held on Monday, with Arsenal, Benfica, Real Betis, Chelsea, Dinamo Zagreb, Dynamo Kiev, Eintracht Frankfurt, Genk, Inter Milan, Bayer Leverkusen, Napoli, RB Salzburg, Sevilla, Valencia, Villarreal and Zenit St Petersburg all seeded for the next round.

Football: Cardiff 'shocked' by report that pilot in crash that killed Sala not qualified for night flights

LONDON (AFP) - Cardiff claim they are stunned by a report that the pilot in the plane crash that killed Emiliano Sala was not qualified to fly at night.
The English Premier League football club said they remain "deeply concerned" that the pilot David Ibbotson and those who arranged the flight "seemingly completely disregarded the rules of flying and put Mr Sala's life in such danger".
Sala died when the Piper Malibu aircraft they were travelling in came down in the English Channel on Jan 21, two days after Cardiff had signed the Argentinian striker from French club Nantes.
The BBC on Saturday reported that Ibbotson was thought to have been colour-blind and that his licence restricted him to flying in daytime hours only.
Cardiff said in a statement: "Cardiff City is shocked to hear the pilot, David Ibbotson, may not have been permitted to fly at night.
"The club remains deeply concerned that the pilot, and those who arranged the flight, seemingly completely disregarded the rules of flying and put Mr Sala's life in such danger.
"We believe those who are responsible should be held fully accountable for their actions.

 
"We reiterate our support for the Air Charter Association's call for more awareness of and better enforcement against illegal flights."

Football: Palace 'keeper Wayne Hennessey, pictured waving, cleared of making Nazi salute

(REUTERS) - Crystal Palace goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey was cleared of making a Nazi salute by the English Football Association (FA) on Friday (April 5).
The Wales international was charged with an "aggravated breach" of the rules governing player conduct in January after being pictured with his right arm in the air in a photo posted on Instagram by Palace teammate Max Meyer.
Hennessey denied the charge, taking to Twitter to explain that he had been calling out and waving to attract the attention of the person behind the camera when the picture was taken.
"I'm delighted that the FA have found me not guilty of this charge," Hennessey said in a statement on Palace's website.
The photograph prompted an outcry on social media and the FA charged the 32-year-old with a breach of its rules relating to abusive, insulting or improper conduct and bringing the game into disrepute.
"This was a genuinely innocent moment, which appeared to be something completely different when captured on camera," Hennessey added.
"I want to state for the record that I abhor all forms of racism, fascism, anti-Semitism or discrimination of any kind."
