İspanlara hava əngəli

DÇ-2026-nın III turunda Uruqvayla matça hazırlaşan İspaniya millisinin məşqi yarımçıq dayandırılıb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, buna səbəb komandanın məskunlaşdığı Çattanoqa şəhərində güclü küləyin əsməsidir. Yığma əlverişsiz hava şəraiti səbəbindən cəmi 20 dəqiqə məşq edə bilib.

İspaniya ilə Uruqvay arasındakı matç iyunun 27-də baş tutacaq. İki turdan sonra İspaniya 4 xalla liderdir. Uruqvay isə 2 xalla 2-cidir.

Today’s Papers: Malago election reaction as Conte & Maldini linked with national team

Here is a look at the key football stories making the front pages of Italy’s three major sports newspapers on Tuesday, June 23.

Today’s Papers

the sports newspaper 033303m9l3vas

La Gazzetta dello Sport leads with the FIGC presidential election, declaring “It’s their turn” as Giovanni Malagò takes charge of Italian football.

The paper reports that the new president’s first major task will be rebuilding the national team, with Antonio Conte emerging as the frontrunner for the Italy coaching role and Paolo Maldini linked with the technical director position, a combination that would represent a genuinely exciting new era for the Azzurri.

The World Cup dominates the sports pages, with Messi’s brace against Austria, taking him to 18 World Cup goals and past Klose’s all-time record, earning the front page splash “Messi Pazzesco.”

Corriere dello Sport goes with “Leoland” as their World Cup headline, celebrating Messi’s five goals in two games and his historic record.

On the domestic front, the paper leads on Juventus’ handling of Jonathan David, with Carnevali reportedly working on a deal for Kolo Muani, and reports that Napoli and Lazio are edging closer to an agreement over Mario Gila, with signals of a possible discount emerging from the Biancocelesti.

Inter’s potential use of funds allocated to the pursuit of Curtis Jones to instead pursue Nico Paz is also highlighted.

tuttosport 020326mok2xjx

Tuttosport leads with Malagò’s election under the headline “Giovanni the reformer,” with the new FIGC president declaring his appointment “an act of love and lucid madness.”

The paper reports Mancini is in pole for the Italy coaching role with Maldini the dream as technical director.

The main football story is Michel Platini’s interview at the Vialli e Mauro Golf Cup, where the French legend declared: “Juventus will return to winning ways. Woe betide anyone who touches this club, for me only the Agnelli family exists. I will not return, but I can be an adviser. Yildiz is like Lamine Yamal, a number 10 who plays like an 11.”

Juventus CEO Carnevali also confirmed the club are working on Kolo Muani.

Carragher wants Tuchel to make one key change for England’s next World Cup match

Jamie Carragher believes Thomas Tuchel should make a defensive change for England’s second World Cup group game against Ghana, despite the Three Lions starting their campaign with an exciting 4-2 win over Croatia.

England looked sharp going forward in Dallas, but they were not completely convincing defensively.

That is why Carragher feels Marc Guehi should return to the starting XI after being left on the bench for the opening match.

Speaking on Sky Sports, Carragher said: “For me, the first player in the back four would’ve been Marc Guehi.”

He also admitted he was surprised the defender did not start against Croatia.

Stones fitness remains a talking point

Carragher’s concern is mainly about John Stones and his lack of regular football.

Stones has huge experience and remains one of England’s best ball-playing defenders, but his rhythm is clearly still being questioned.

“I was worried about John Stones and the amount of football he’s had,” Carragher said.

He added that expecting Stones to immediately perform at his best after limited minutes was a risk.

Interestingly, Carragher is not calling for Stones to be dropped completely. Instead, he believes Tuchel should give him another chance to build match sharpness before the knockout rounds.

That makes sense. England will need Stones’ calmness on the ball later in the tournament, but they also need more defensive security now.

Ghana will test England properly

Ghana should not be underestimated. They also have three points after beating Panama 1-0, and their manager Carlos Queiroz has already made it clear his side believe they can trouble England.

For Tuchel, the decision is about balance. Does he stick with the same defence that won the first game, or bring Guehi back for more natural solidity?

England are in a strong position, but Carragher’s point is fair. If the Three Lions want to go deep in this World Cup, Tuchel must find his best centre-back partnership quickly.

Panama May 2026: Changan reaches record 4th place in solid market

Changan holds 4.9% of the Panamanian market in May.

4,972 new light vehicles found a buyer in Panama in May, a solid 7.4% year-on-year improvement. The year-to-date tally is up an even better +12.7% to 26,689. Toyota (-10.5%) stays ahead in the brands charts despite a painful YoY drop. Kia (+41.7%) overtakes sister brand Hyundai (-1.3%) for 2nd place while Changan (+125.7%) surges to #4, the brands’s first incursion inside the Panamanian Top 5. Suzuki (+13.5%) and Geely (-3.8%) follow. Below, Jaecoo (+288.9%), Soueast (+214.3%), Volkswagen (+171.4%), Dongfeng (+61.8%) and Jetour (+25.4%) stand out.

Model-wise, the Hyundai Grand i10 (+43.9%) scores a 4th straight win, but once again this is not enough to dislodge the Toyota Hilux (-15.5%) from the YTD top spot as the latter had scored a phenomenal January result (12.4% share). The Kia Soluto (+113.3%) more than doubles its year-ago volume to stay at #2, with the Toyota Yaris Cross (+28.6%) and Isuzu D-Max (+29%) rounding out the Top 5. Illustrating its record performance, Changan places the CS35 Plus at #6 and the Alsvin V3 at #10.

Cyprus May 2026: BYD up to record #3, Kia monopolises podium

Kia Xceed sales double year-on-year in May, awaiting the new model (pictured).

Data by our local partners SEMO Cyprus and INNOSOFT shows a Cypriot new car market edging down -1.2% year-on-year in May to 1,312 units. The year-to-date volume remains in stark negative at -11.1% to just 6,111. Kia (+16.7%) defies the negative context to reach 20.2% share, its second consecutive month above the 20% milestone. In 2nd place, Toyota (+36.9%) is in even better shape and progresses to 11.6% share vs. 8.2% year-to-date. Newcomer BYD, launched last July, breaks into the Cypriot podium for the very first time and holds 6.8% of the market. Land Rover (+252.9%) surges to #7 with Renault (+16.7%) and Mercedes (+13.2%) are also solid in the remainder of the Top 10.

Model-wise, the Kia Stonic (-5.9%) reclaims the top spot it holds year-to-date despite a slight YoY loss. In fact Kia spectacularly monopolises the podium with the Xceed (+102.9%) and EV3 (+67.7%) in tow. At #5, the Sportage (stable) makes it four Kias in the Top 5. The odd one out is the Toyota C-HR (+144.4%) up eight spots on last month to #4. The Renault Captur (+100%) doubles its sales YoY and surges from outside the April Top 20 directly to #8. Meanwhile the BYD Seal U manages a second ever Top 10 finish at #9.

Iraq fans ‘proud’ and joyful despite World Cup loss to France

Philadelphia, United States — The first time Ali Alkabasi saw Iraq play at a World Cup was on television when he was 13 years old. Forty years later, he was inside the Philadelphia Stadium as his nation returned to the big stage and faced former champions France.

Despite a crushing 3-0 loss in his team’s second Group I match, Alkabasi says he is grateful to witness Iraq live at the tournament.

“Seeing Iraq play in the World Cup is enough,” he told Al Jazeera.

“The performance wasn’t too bad. The result was expected. France are on another level. At least the Iraqi players were not just playing long balls. They tried to build up an attack.”

Iraqi fans stood up and saluted their team at the final whistle, and even at three goals down in the final minutes of the game, they cheered for every attack as if they could will it into becoming an equaliser.

‘Matter of pride’

For a country that has faced immense adversity over the past decades, Iraq’s participation in a World Cup brought unadulterated joy to fans, who travelled from across the US and the world to see their team in action.

Halah Maykhan, an Iraqi American who lives in Wisconsin, said Iraq’s return to the World Cup after four decades is a dream come true.

“We are living the dream. My homeland, Iraq, makes it to the World Cup finals in America, where I live. The dream for me is double,” Maykhan told Al Jazeera.

“I am so happy and so excited. This is a matter of pride for the Iraqi people.”

She expressed gratitude to the players for gathering Iraqis from all corners of the planet in one place to rally around the squad.

“We are with this team no matter the results,” Maykhan told Al Jazeera.

“Although they lack experience, we are hoping they do well, and we’re hoping all Arab teams do well.”

Two-time world champions France started the match with intensity, and superstar Kylian Mbappe quieted the raucous Iraqi crowd in the 14th minute with a screamer from the edge of the box – but not for long.

After the shell-shock, Iraqi fans returned to drumming up support for their team as chants of “Iraq, Iraq” rang throughout the stadium.

The process would repeat twice, with France’s goals only temporarily lulling the roars of the supporters of the Lions of Mesopotamia.

Despite the enormous gulf in quality between the two sides, Iraq did not just park the bus and clear the ball as far away as possible from their own goal.

They tried to keep possession and play through France’s high press.

Mohammed Abduljabbar, who lives in Texas, said while the result was disappointing, the team did what it had to do against a better opponent.

“Their performance was good. Yes, there were mistakes, but there were also some beautiful plays. We are proud of them, and we thank them for bringing us to the World Cup,” Abduljabbar told Al Jazeera.

He added that the feeling of watching Iraq at the stadium was “indescribable”.


A nation brought together by football

Beyond football, Iraq’s World Cup journey put on display a fortified national identity across sectarian and religious lines.

At the stadium on Monday, there were Kurdish and Assyrian flags waving alongside the national banner, but all the fans stood united behind the players.

Husam Nafea, an Iraq fan who drove for four hours from Virginia to see the match, said the country has been rising above divisions, and it is now even more unified around the team.

“Wherever we go, we as Iraqis are joyous and united, and hopefully, we remain this way,” Nafea, who was draped in an Iraqi flag, told Al Jazeera outside the stadium.

Over the past decades, Iraq has endured coups, wars, sieges, civil strife, a US-led invasion and the rise of ISIL (ISIS).

Now the country is experiencing a period of relative calm, but it remains near the centre of many geopolitical faultlines in the region.

Nawres Almamoori travelled all the way from South Australia to Philadelphia to watch Iraq in action.

He said the excitement around participation in the tournament is bringing much-needed relief to Iraqis.

“Iraqis have gone through and are still going through a lot,” Almamoori told Al Jazeera. “They deserve this joy.”

An actual storm caught up with Iraq and France on Monday, with heavy rain and thunder halting the match for nearly two hours at half-time.

As fans lined up to enter the stadium under the water dumping from the sky, Iraq fan Hassan Raad said he is unconcerned with the weather or the result.

“Rain, sun, freeze, desert – we are here for our guys,” Raad told Al Jazeera. “The result doesn’t matter. As fans, our job is to support the team.”

Ateka Saleh, an Iraqi American from Wisconsin, echoed the sentiment.

“No matter what happens today, they already brought us here, together, to be happy with them,” Saleh said of the players before the match.

“So, ‘thank you’ to them. We are very proud of this team.”

Lionel Messi dünya çempionatları tarixinin bombardiri oldu!

Futbol üzrə Argentina milli komandasının kapitanı və ulduz hücumçusu Lionel Messi dünya futbolu tarixinə daha bir neçə rekordla düşüb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, 38 yaşlı ulduz futbolçu DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turunda Avstriya yığmasına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunda tarixi nailiyyətlərə imza atıb.

Dallas şəhərində (Texas, ABŞ) təşkil edilmiş bu qarşılaşmada argentinalı forvard hesabı açaraq komandasını önə keçirib. Bu qol Messi üçün dünya çempionatları tarixində 17-ci olub. Bununla da o, Almaniya millisinin sabiq hücumçusu Miroslav Klozeni geridə qoyaraq mundialların ən yaxşı bombardiri adına yiyələnib. Klozenin aktivində 16 qol var idi.

Bundan başqa, Messi ardıcıl altıncı dünya çempionatı oyununda da fərqlənərək daha bir rekordu təkrarlayıb. Argentinalı futbolçunun qolluq seriyası DÇ-2022-nin 1/8 final mərhələsindən başlayıb və DÇ-2026-da da davam edir. Daha əvvəl belə nəticəyə yalnız Fransa millisinin sabiq hücumçusu Just Fontaine (1958) və Braziliya yığmasının əfsanəvi forvardı Jairzinyo (1970) nail olmuşdu. Lakin onlar bunu eyni turnir çərçivəsində bacarmışdılar.

Messi bu qarşılaşmada bir antirekorda da imza atıb. Oyunun 9-cu dəqiqəsində təyin olunmuş penalti zərbəsini qola çevirə bilməyən hücumçu dünya çempionatları tarixində ən çox penalti qaçıran futbolçu olub. Bu, onun mundiallarda əsas vaxt ərzində qaçırdığı üçüncü penalti olub. Bununla da Messi daha əvvəl bu göstəricidə şərik olduğu Qana millisinin sabiq futbolçusu Asamoa Qyanı geridə qoyub.

Beləliklə, Avstriya ilə oyunda həm tarixi bombardir rekordunu qıran, həm ardıcıl qol seriyası rekordunu təkrarlayan, həm də penalti antirekorduna sahib çıxan Lionel Messi dünya futbol tarixindəki mövqeyini daha da möhkəmləndirib.

Matt Freese Wrote a Harvard Paper on Penalties and Now Guards the USA World Cup Goal

The United States had two clear choices to guard its goal at a home World Cup, and both of them were named Matt. One was the incumbent, a man who had started at the last World Cup and spent the years since chasing minutes across England and France. The other was a 27 year old from Wayne, Pennsylvania, who once walked away from Harvard to chase a professional contract and who, somewhere in his college days, wrote an academic paper on the science of saving penalties. When Mauricio Pochettino named his lineup for the opener against Paraguay, it was the second Matt who got the call. Matt Freese, the Ivy League goalkeeper from a family of scientists, is the last line of defense for the host nation.

It is the kind of backstory that sounds invented. A goalkeeper who studied penalty analytics at one of the most famous universities in the world, who then went out and won a shootout for his country by reading the moment exactly the way his research said he should. Freese has lived that script, and the most interesting part is that he refuses to talk about it.

The Harvard paper he won’t discuss

Freese came up through the Ivy League, playing his college soccer at Harvard before leaving early to turn professional. While he was there, he did a paper on penalty kick analytics, the kind of project that pairs a goalkeeper’s instincts with a researcher’s curiosity. For a man whose job would one day include facing down strikers from twelve yards in front of a roaring crowd, it was a strangely fitting thing to study.

That academic background became impossible to ignore at the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup. In the quarterfinal against Costa Rica, the game went to a shootout, and Freese put on a performance that looked like theory turned into practice. He saved three penalties as the United States won 4-3, dragging his team through on a night when nerves usually decide everything. Suddenly the country had a goalkeeper who was not just brave in a shootout but, it seemed, properly schooled in it.

Shootouts are often described as a lottery, and goalkeepers like to lean on that framing because it removes the blame when they lose. Freese’s record suggests he treats them as the opposite, a problem with patterns hiding inside it. A keeper who has studied where players tend to place the ball under pressure, who notices the small tells in a striker’s run up, and who keeps his composure long enough to act on that knowledge, tilts the odds in his favor a fraction. In a discipline decided by inches, a fraction is enormous. That Gold Cup night was the first time the wider American public saw the theory pay off in real time.

The natural follow up question, of course, was whether his Harvard research had helped him read those Costa Rican penalties. Freese shut it down with the wariness of a man protecting an edge. “I just don’t really want to talk about that,” he said. “It’s too early. I have too many penalty shootouts left in my career to really talk about that stuff.” It was a telling answer. Here was a player who clearly believed his preparation gave him an advantage, and who had no intention of explaining that advantage to the strikers he would meet down the road.

A family of scientists

The intellectual streak does not come from nowhere. Freese was raised in a family of renowned scientists, an environment where rigor and study were part of the household furniture. Most goalkeepers describe their development in terms of reflexes, handling and positioning. Freese carries the added layer of someone who grew up around people for whom asking why and testing the answer was simply how you approached a problem.

That combination, the scientist’s mindset and the athlete’s nerve, is rare in any sport. Goalkeeping is often described as the loneliest position in soccer, a job where a single error is remembered long after a dozen saves are forgotten. A player who can treat the position as a set of problems to be analyzed, rather than a series of fears to be survived, has a useful kind of armor. Freese’s refusal to discuss his methods only adds to the sense that there is more going on behind the gloves than a typical highlight reel reveals.

The long climb to a starting job

The path from Harvard dropout to World Cup starter was anything but smooth. Freese left college to join Philadelphia Union for the 2019 season, betting on himself the way ambitious young players do. It did not pay off quickly. He spent years struggling to break into the Union’s first team, stuck behind established options and waiting for a chance that kept not coming. For a while, the gamble looked like it might not work at all.

The turning point came in January 2023, when he was traded to New York City FC. The move finally gave him what Philadelphia never had, a clear runway to become a full time starter. He took it. Regular minutes turned a promising backup into a trusted number one, and his form at club level eventually pulled him into Pochettino’s plans for the national team. By the time the World Cup arrived, Freese had played 16 matches at the senior level for the United States, enough to be tested but young enough to still be rising.

His emergence came at the direct expense of a player many assumed would own the position. Matt Turner started for the United States at the previous World Cup and once belonged to Arsenal, but his recent years were defined by a lack of game time. He failed to make a single Premier League appearance for Arsenal, then drifted through Nottingham Forest, a loan at Crystal Palace, a move to Lyon where he did not feature, and a loan back to the New England Revolution. He is playing regularly again in MLS, but the missing years cost him, and the starting job slipped to Freese.

Pochettino’s quiet endorsement

Choosing a goalkeeper for a home World Cup is one of the most scrutinized decisions a manager makes, and Pochettino did not arrive at it on a whim. He gave Freese the gloves for the opener against Paraguay and has kept faith in him since, a sign that the trust built up over a year of work was real. Pochettino had watched both Matts closely, and he landed on the younger one, the player whose form was rising rather than the veteran whose minutes had dried up.

The decision has been vindicated by results. The United States opened the tournament with a commanding showing against Paraguay and followed it with a controlled win over Australia in Seattle, sealing top spot in Group D before the final round of group games was even complete. A settled, confident goalkeeper is one of the quiet foundations of any team that goes deep, and Freese has given Pochettino exactly that, a number one who looks like he belongs on the biggest stage rather than one merely surviving it.

Why his story fits this American team

There is something fitting about Freese as the face of this US goal. The American game has long sold itself on the idea that talent can come from anywhere and be developed in unconventional ways, that the player pool is not limited to a single pipeline. A Harvard educated goalkeeper who studied the math of penalties, walked away from his degree to chase a contract, weathered years on the bench and emerged as his country’s number one at a home World Cup is almost a mascot for that belief.

It also speaks to the depth of competition the United States now enjoys in a position it once worried about. Two genuine options, both named Matt, both with real pedigree, is a luxury earlier American teams would have envied. Pochettino had a real decision to make, and the fact that the man who lost out has a Premier League past tells you how high the bar has risen.

For Freese, the timing is everything. A home World Cup comes around once in a generation, and most American players his age will never get to play one on home soil with the eyes of their own country on them. He has arrived at it as a starter rather than a spectator, in a position where calm counts more than flash and where reputations are built on the nights nobody expected anything. From Wayne, Pennsylvania, to the biggest goal his nation can offer, he has reached this point by betting on himself at every turn, leaving Harvard, surviving the bench in Philadelphia, forcing his way past a more famous rival. None of it was handed to him.

Knockout soccer, of course, has a way of circling back to the very thing Freese once studied. If the United States advances deep into this tournament, the odds of a shootout grow with every round, and the host nation’s hopes may one day rest on a goalkeeper guessing right from twelve yards. Should that moment arrive, the Americans will have in goal a man who literally researched it, who has already won one shootout for his country, and who is far too smart to tell anyone exactly how he plans to do it again.

Raul Jimenez Survived a Skull Fracture to Score His First World Cup Goal

The header itself was nothing remarkable, a striker meeting a cross and steering it home, the sort of goal Raul Jimenez has scored hundreds of times. It was what happened next that stopped the Azteca in its tracks. The 35-year-old did not wheel away in the usual celebration. He stood still, looked up at the sky, and broke down in tears. In that moment, on the 67th minute of Mexico’s 2-0 win over South Africa to open the 2026 World Cup, everything Jimenez had survived to be standing on that pitch came pouring out at once. It was his first World Cup goal. It came months after his father died, and a little over five years after a fractured skull nearly ended far more than his career.

Roberto Alvarado supplied the cross. Jimenez rose to meet it and doubled Mexico’s lead in front of a home crowd that has followed every chapter of his story. For a player who has spent so much of his career being defined by what was taken from him, this was the rarest thing: a moment that gave something back.

The Night Everything Nearly Ended

On 29 November 2020, Jimenez was playing for Wolverhampton Wanderers at Arsenal when he went up for a header and collided sickeningly with an opponent. He suffered a fractured skull and needed emergency surgery that night. The injury was not a knock to recover from over a few weeks. It was life-threatening. Jimenez has since said that, based on his conversations with the doctors who treated him, it was a miracle he survived at all. His father later spoke about how the injury arrived at the peak of his son’s powers, when a move up the European ladder felt within reach, and how it changed the shape of everything that followed.

He came back, which was remarkable in itself. Within months he was training again, and eventually he returned to the pitch wearing the protective headgear that has become part of his silhouette ever since. He has worn it in every match since the surgery, a permanent reminder strapped to his head of the day football almost cost him his life. Most players who suffer an injury that serious never play at the highest level again. Some never play at all. Jimenez not only returned but kept scoring, kept leading the line for club and country, and kept his place in the Mexico side long enough to reach a home World Cup.

The Long Road Back

The months after the surgery were not a simple recovery so much as a careful negotiation with risk. Returning to football after a fractured skull meant clearance from specialists, a graduated build-up, and the constant question of whether heading a ball, the very action that had injured him, was safe to attempt again. Jimenez worked through all of it. The protective headgear was part medical precaution, part psychological permission, a way of telling himself it was acceptable to compete fully again rather than flinching from every aerial duel.

What is easy to forget is how good he had been before the injury. At Wolves he had become one of the Premier League’s most complete centre-forwards, a striker who held up play, linked others and scored regularly against the best defences in England. His father’s view, that the injury struck just as the biggest moves of his career were coming into reach, was not the bias of a parent. It was a fair reading of where Jimenez stood in late 2020. The version of him that came back was older and more cautious in some ways, but no less determined to prove the interruption would not be the end of the story.

A Goal for His Father

The grief layered onto the relief made the celebration what it was. Jimenez lost his father, Raul Jimenez Vega, in March of this year. When he looked to the sky after scoring, he was not performing a gesture. He was speaking to someone. Those who know him described it afterwards as a perfect day for a man who had endured a brutal one too many, the kind of release that only comes when something joyful finally arrives after a long stretch of pain.

Football celebrations dedicated to lost loved ones can blur into a familiar image, but the specifics here cut deeper. This was a player who had already faced his own mortality on a hospital table, scoring his first World Cup goal in his own country, in the months after burying his father. The emotion was not manufactured for the cameras. It was a debt visibly settled, to himself, to his family, and to the man who was not there to see it. The Azteca, a stadium that has witnessed Pele and Maradona at their peak, understood exactly what it was watching.

Chasing History in the Mexico Shirt

Lost in the emotion of the night is the fact that Jimenez is closing in on Mexico’s all-time scoring records. He has spent more than a decade as a central figure for El Tri, a reliable presence through changes of coach and generation. The goal against South Africa was a landmark for another reason too. For all his caps and all his goals for Mexico, the World Cup had never given him a moment like this. He had been to the tournament before without scoring. At 35, at what is almost certainly his final World Cup, he finally has one, and on home soil at that.

There is a wider significance for Mexico. A host nation needs a focal point, a player the crowd can pour its hope into, and Jimenez has become exactly that. His comeback story is woven into the country’s relationship with this tournament. When he scores, it is not just three points moving closer. It is a confirmation that the striker who nearly did not make it is still here, still leading the line, still capable of deciding the biggest matches his country plays.

The setting added its own layer. The Azteca became the first stadium to host matches at three different World Cups, having staged the 1970 and 1986 finals before this tournament returned to Mexico City. It is a ground steeped in the sport’s mythology, the place where some of the game’s defining figures produced their defining moments. For Jimenez to write himself into its long story, with a goal carrying that much personal history behind it, gave the night a sense of occasion that went beyond the scoreline. A stadium built for legends made room for one more piece of folklore, supplied by a local hero the country had nearly lost.

Why This One Resonated Beyond Mexico

Some goals belong only to the fans of the team that scores them. This one travelled further. The image of a grown man, a hardened professional, standing frozen and weeping after the simplest of headers, spoke to anyone who has carried loss into a moment that was supposed to be pure celebration. It is the kind of scene that pulls in viewers who do not follow Mexican football and may not have known Jimenez’s history until that night, then found themselves moved by it anyway.

The 2026 World Cup will produce faster players, flashier goals, and bigger names on the scoresheet. It is unlikely to produce many moments heavier than a survivor scoring for his late father in the country that loves him. That is the strange power of this sport. A header that any striker could finish became, because of who scored it and what he had been through, one of the most affecting images of the tournament’s opening week.

Still Standing, Still Scoring

Raul Jimenez will wear the headgear for the rest of his career, and it will keep telling the story whether he wants it to or not. Every time he heads a ball, every time he throws himself into a challenge, there is a quiet defiance in it. The doctors told him he was lucky to be alive. He answered by going back to the one activity that nearly killed him and refusing to do it tentatively.

However Mexico’s tournament unfolds from here, their number nine has already given them the moment that will be replayed for years. A first World Cup goal at 35, scored at the Azteca, dedicated to a father who is gone, by a man who once lay on an operating table with his skull fractured and his future uncertain. Football rarely offers endings that tidy or that earned. For one night in Mexico City, it did, and a striker who had every reason to walk away stood in the middle of it, looking at the sky.

Mbappe leads France to win over Iraq in lightning-delayed World Cup game

Kylian Mbappe scored his second brace ‌of the tournament, and France eased to a 3-0 victory over Iraq ⁠in the first match ⁠of this World Cup beset by a lengthy weather stoppage.

Mbappe’s goals came nearly three hours apart after thunderstorms in the region on Monday delayed the second-half kickoff by a shade ⁠under two hours.

They take him to 16 all-time World Cup tallies, pulling him level with former record-holder Miroslav Klose. Earlier on Monday, Lionel Messi set a new benchmark of 18 career World Cup ⁠goals with his brace in Argentina’s 2-0 victory over Austria.

Mbappe’s four goals also place him one behind Messi in the 2026 Golden Boot race.

Reigning Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembele also scored after half-time for two-time champions France (2-0-0, 6 points), who are all but assured of progressing.

Their last-32 place will become official if Norway ‌win or draw against Senegal in the other Group I fixture. That match, staged about two hours away by car in northern New Jersey, kicked off near-simultaneously with the start of the long-awaited second half at Philadelphia Stadium.

Iraq (0-2-0, 0 points) remain alive for one of the eight knockout spots allotted for third-place teams.

They will probably need a win in their group finale against Senegal and help elsewhere. And they could be without Aymen Hussein, who scored their only goal this tournament in their ⁠opener, but exited on Monday in the 26th minute with an apparent injury.

France ⁠dominated the early stages, and Mbappe capitalised in the 14th minute.

On an innocent-looking sequence on the right, Mbappe received Michael Olise’s pass, took one touch to his left and, with Iraqi defenders affording him space, unfurled a powerful strike from ⁠the edge of the penalty area that sailed beyond Ahmed Basil’s dive.

The delay could have served as a recovery period for Iraq, who spent most ⁠of the match chasing the ball. Instead, they gifted France ⁠and Mbappe a second on a dreadful mistake from a goal kick.

Dembele was the provider for Mbappe’s tap-in. He scored 12 minutes later, after controlling Olise’s incisive pass into the 18-yard box and finishing low past Basil.

With the outcome never in doubt, ‌the weather provided the drama.

After referee Drew Fischer blew his half-time whistle as storms were already beginning, the skies opened further, and spectators were told to seek shelter in the stadium concourses.

Players finally ‌re-emerged ‌for warm-ups about 1 hour and 40 minutes later, and even then, the restart was delayed further as stadium personnel used squeegees to shuttle standing water off the east side of the pitch.

Skaloni: “Messinin fədakarlığı heyrətamizdir”

Futbol üzrə Argentina millisinin baş məşqçisi Lionel Skaloni dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Avstriyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində keçirilmiş bu oyunda argentinalılar 2:0 hesablı qələbəyə seviniblər.

Lionel Skaloni matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında komandanın kapitanı Lionel Messinin çıxışını yüksək qiymətləndirib. 38 yaşlı hücumçu matçda dubla imza ataraq Argentina yığmasına vaxtından əvvəl 1/16 final mərhələsinə vəsiqə qazandırıb. Skaloni xüsusilə Messinin meydandakı fədakarlığını vurğulayıb:

“Komandamız çətinlik çəkdiyi anlarda belə Leo top qazanmağa, sonadək mübarizə aparmağa davam edirdi. O, rəqib meydanının yarısında topu saxlayır, nə qədər motivasiyalı olduğu açıq şəkildə görünürdü.

Futbolda belə fədakarlığa tez-tez rast gəlmək olmur. Amma Leo hər zaman özünü məhz belə göstərib. Bu, sadəcə heyrətamizdir və biz buna görə çox sevinirik. Düzünü desəm, Messi haqqında daha nə demək olar, bilmirəm”.

Avstriya ilə oyunda vurduğu iki qol sayəsində Messi yalnız komandasına vacib qələbə qazandırmayıb, həm də rəsmi olaraq dünya çempionatları tarixinin ən məhsuldar futbolçusu adına sahib çıxıb.

Avstriya millisinin baş məşqçisi Ralf Ranqnik də Argentina ilə matçdakı məğlubiyyəti şərh edib:

“Daha artığına nail ola bilərdik. Amma ümumilikdə oyunumuz planlaşdırdığımız kimi – cəsarətli və aqressiv idi.

İstərdim ki, bir-iki epizodda bir qədər daha cəsarətli davranaydıq və uzaq məsafədən zərbələr endirəydik. Xüsusilə ilk hissədə bunun üçün imkanlar var idi.

Əks-hücumdan ikinci qolu buraxmağımız çox üzücüdür. Lakin ümumilikdə pis çıxış etmədik”.

Iran leave powerful hand-written message for the world after hard-fought World Cup draw

The Iran national football team left an emotional, handwritten note in their SoFi Stadium dressing room on Sunday, following a hard-fought 0-0 draw against Belgium.

Released by the Iranian football federation, the message reflected deep national pride and gratitude toward their hosts, while keeping their dreams of reaching the World Cup knockout stages alive under grueling logistical circumstances.

Iran pens heartfelt note and call for peace

The 74-word message left on the locker room whiteboard struck a poignant chord, highlighting the resilience of the squad amid immense geopolitical strain.

The note expressed a fierce message of cultural unity and an explicit appeal for global harmony, standing out as one of the most powerful moments of the tournament so far.

“From the ancient Persia of thousands of years ago to the civilized Iran of today, the spirit of Iran remains alive and steadfast,” the handwritten note read. “Thank you, Los Angeles, for your hospitality. We came to Los Angeles with pride, competed with honor, and leave with dignity.”

The letter also extended deep gratitude to the passionate local Iranian diaspora who packed the stands, thanking every supporter who gave their “heart, voice, and soul” over the team’s 180 minutes in California.

Iran left a note in the SoFi Stadium locker room. Read it.

They didn't make it out of the group stage. But before they left Los Angeles, the Iranian squad left something behind in the locker room at SoFi Stadium, and it's gone viral for all the right reasons.

The message read:… pic.twitter.com/NVdA9H0w94

Crucially, the text featured the tags “#168” and “#Minab”, a tribute to the school children killed in a historic missile strike in Minab. It concluded with a plea that “peace, respect, and friendship prevail among all nations.”

From the football pitch to the negotiating table to the battlefield, every step we take as Iranians is part of a larger struggle: defending the honor and dignity of our dear people.#Minab168 pic.twitter.com/CFZ6EbYo49

Iran overcomes heavy travel restrictions to stay unbeaten

The defiant gesture comes as Iran battles unprecedented off-pitch obstacles. Due to rigid travel limitations imposed by US immigration authorities, the Iranian team are restricted from staying on US soil for more than 48 hours at a time.

Consequently, head coach Amir Ghalenoei and his squad have been forced to base themselves across the border in Tijuana, Mexico, commuting over for games.

Ghalenoei fiercely criticized the environment, labeling his side the “most oppressed team in the World Cup.”

Iran must beat Egypt in crucial final group clash

Iran currently sit second in the group, with two points, two points behind first placed Egypt who recorded their first win in World Cup with a 3-1 win over New Zealand.

Belgium sit third with two points and are expected to beat New Zealand in the final game which would take them to five points.

Which is why Egypt is a must win game for the Iranians if they want to qualify to the next round.

Steam Next Fest June 2026 – Capybaras, Dual Dimensions, and Soulslike Swordplay

A collage of game images above an announcement for 'Next Fest,' detailing a celebration of upcoming games, running from June 15 to June 22 at 10 AM Pacific.

We're halfway through the year, which also means it's time for the second Steam Next Fest of 2026. In my roundup of the February edition, I got pulled in by several platformers to the point where they were the highlight of my demo fest. This time around, I didn't pull myself away from the genre, but I did make a conscious effort to go beyond my jumping comfort zone. And unsurprisingly, I still came out of Steam Next Fest with several incredibly strong games I'll have my eye on as they near their launch. Before getting into the demos, one […]

World Cup official line-ups: France vs Iraq, Maignan, Rabiot and Kone start

The France squad has plenty of Serie A talent including Manu Kone, Mike Maignan and Adrien Rabiot as they take on Iraq, but there are thunderstorm warnings in Philadelphia.

It kicks off at the Philadelphia Stadium at 22.00 UK time (23.00 CEST, 17.00 local time) in Group I.

Les Bleus defeated Senegal 3-1 in their opening game of the 2026 World Cup, despite a poor first half performance, with a Kylian Mbappé brace and Bradley Barcola counter-attack.

That goal was assisted by Milan midfielder Rabiot, who again starts this evening with his club teammate Maignan in goal.

However, this time he is partnered by Roma’s Manu Koné rather than Aurelien Tchouameni in the middle of the park.

Inter striker Marcus Thuram is on the bench and still waiting for his first minutes of this World Cup.

Iraq were on the end of a 4-1 thrashing by Norway in their first fixture of the tournament, even though Aymen Hussein had scored a temporary equaliser.

There are concerns that kick-off might be delayed this evening because of severe thunderstorm warnings in the Philadelphia area.

This is one of the problems with having the USA, Canada and Mexico hosting the World Cup during the height of lightning season.

There has even been a warning from the stadium organisers that gate opening will be delayed, urging fans not to travel to the stadium at this time.

Rules were put in place that if lightning is detected within eight miles of the stadium, the match will be put on pause for 30 minutes so fans and players can be escorted to shelter.

Arkansas State Football Preview 2026: Can the Red Wolves Win the Sun Belt?

The Sun Belt is better now than it was when Hugh Freeze, Gus Malzahn, Bryan Harsin, and Blake Anderson were winning conference titles, but Butch Jones has his Red Wolves in the mix every year.

It took a few years, but Jones has a consistent winner now with three straight bowl appearances, 21 wins over the span, and with a team returning that should be good enough to challenge for a championship.

Can the Red Wolves Do Enough to Be Sun Belt Title Good?

Arkansas State Quick Hits

  • Head Coach: Butch Jones (6th year, 26-37; 14th year overall, 110-91)
  • Best Case / Worst Case: Win the Sun Belt title/Just miss out on a bowl game
  • Key Player: Trey Owens, QB Soph. (or whoever wins the quarterback job)
  • 2025 Record: 7-6
  • Biggest Question: Can the defense do more despite the loss of all the top pass rushers?

Arkansas State Key 2025 Stats

  • 2nd Quarter Points: 101, 3rd Quarter Points: 44
  • Penalties: Opponents 116 for 999 yards, Arkansas State 82 for 752 yards
  • Tackles For Loss: Arkansas State 81 for 345 yards, Opponents 81 for 309 yards

Offense

The offense kicked it in late in the season, but it needs to be more consistent and explosive.

It's a loaded team full of good veterans, but the missing pieces are big.

Overall, there needs to be more efficiency, better play from the line, and consistency, but the players are in place to be terrific for new offensive coordinator, Garrett Altman.

What’s Working

The offensive line returns just about everyone. It needs to be far better - the pass protection needs to show up - and the ground attack has to be much stronger, but four starters are back, there's decent depth, and there are plenty of strong reinforcements coming in from the transfer portal.

Top target and star Corey Rucker is gone, but just about every other important receiver returns, starting with 73-grab veteran Chauncy Cobb and No. 3 man Hunter Summers. Landing Boski Barrett from Vanderbilt helps an already strong situation.

There needs to be a lot more happening from the ground game, and it starts with giving the 1-2 punch of Kenyon Clay (the thump) and Devin Spencer (the quickness) even more work.

There's even more help coming from Corey Reddick Jr., a quick back from Valdosta State who ran for 651 yards and seven scores last year.

What Needs Work

The quarterback situation. Jaylen Raynor threw and completed more passes for more yards than anyone in the Sun Belt last year, and now he's at Iowa State. Now it's a fight for the gig - the Red Wolves don't have it figured out yet.

Ethan Crawford is back after seeing minimal action last year. Drew Dickey (Vanderbilt) is a smallish baller, and 6-5 Trey Owens (Texas) and 6-4 Jeremy St-Hilaire (Vanderbilt) are bigger options.

Consistent scoring. The Red Wolves failed to score 17 points four times, and went 1-5 when they failed to push past 21.

As a program, it didn't get more than 21 in 18 games over the last three years, and it wasn't just against the top teams on the slate.

The ground game has to be stronger. The line has to generate a push - the Red Wolves only averaged more than five yards per carry once, and that game against Georgia Southern was the only time it got more than 160 yards.

Player to Watch

Devin Spencer, RB Jr.
Can the 5-10, 175-pound speedster get the ball more? He's not a workhorse, and he'll split time again, but he averaged over five yards per carry and needs to have the ball in his hands at least ten times a game.

- Sun Belt Football Win Total Predictions

Defense

There's plenty of work to do.

The offense gets a lot of parts back, but the defensive side doesn't. There's a redo happening, with the portal playing a huge role for a defense that allowed well over 400 yards per game.

It wasn't great against the run, and it had a few meltdowns against the better passing teams. As long as it can keep teams to around 24 points, it should be okay.

What’s Working

The safeties are among the best in the Sun Belt. The main men are back, starting with the combination of AG McGhee and Brandon Barnes, who combined for 151 tackles and seven broken up passes last year. Brandon Greil is also back after making 54 stops. If that wasn't enough ...

The coaching staff brought in lots and lots of defensive backs. The safety situation is great, and it's even better with Makai Shahid (Youngstown State) and Jaylen Heyward (UCF) adding depth.

The corners are the stronger of the defensive back transfers, with Noah Flores (Utah State) Bryson Ross (Portland State), and Five Hamilton (Kennesaw State) ready to go right away.

Good things happen when the run defense holds up. It'll take a village of transfers to transform the line - eight linemen are entering the fun - and if they can be nasty against the run, everything changes on the defense.

The Red Wolves were 5-0 when allowing 160 yards or fewer, and 6-1 when giving up fewer than 185 yards. Basically, just don't get gouged.

What Needs Work

Where are the pass rushers? This was one of the best pass rushing teams in America, but the 16.5 sacks from Demarcus Hendricks and Eathan Hassler are done. Cody Sigler left for Auburn, and Drew Collins is off to South Carolina.

The portal needs to bring the production, but the new guys don't have any appreciable proven track record.

The linebacking corps needs the transfers, too. Top tackler Aaron Alexander left for North Texas, and after being banged up last year, Javante Mackey is gone to Texas State.

Joshua Ofor (NC State) and Tre Stevens (Lafayette) join veteran Nigel Nelson - 54 tackles last year - to try piecing things together.

The pass defense got torched. There's a reason why so many new players are coming in through the portal.

Even with a fantastic pass rush, the Red Wolves got hit for 245 yards per game. Opposing quarterbacks combined to complete 68% of their throws.

Player to Watch

AG McGhee, S Sr.
He's only around 190 pounds, but he works in a hybrid position in the ASU defense - part safety, part linebacker.

No matter where he plays, he makes things happen, with 100 tackles in his last two seasons at Marshall before coming up with 83 stops with a pick and five broken up passes last year.

Keys to the Season

  • Find the pass rushers who can step up right away.
  • Settle the quarterback situation as quickly as possible.
  • Get more pop to the offense with both the downfield passing game and rushing attack.

Player Who Needs To Shine

Donquarius Parker, EDGE, Sr.
The transfers for the pass rush are mostly FBS players who haven't done much yet.

The 6-1, 240-pound Parker is one of the few players with plenty of experience, making 39 tackles with 5.5 sacks and 11.5 tackles for loss last year for North Carolina Central. He'll get every shot to be the main man on the outside.

Biggest Concern

The defensive line
The offensive side issues - quarterback, consistency, pass protection - should be helped by experience. The defensive line has to be even stronger against the run and find the same pressure, but with wholesale changes needed up front.

Biggest Game

Troy, November 28
This is hardly a perfect Arkansas State team coming into the season, but it has the talent and upside to win the Sun Belt West - by far the easier of the two divisions.

One way or another, a spot in the Sun Belt Championship should come down to the regular season finale when the Trojans come to Jonesboro.

Transfer Portal

The Red Wolves needed a lot of players, and they got a lot of players.

They totally rebuilt the defensive line and loaded up in the secondary, but the only thing that matters is the quarterback situation.

One of the several players coming in has to be an instant star for the veteran offense.

Best Signing

Makai Shahid, S (Youngstown State)
This could be whichever quarterback rises up from the pack - Trey Owens from Texas might be the best signing - but Shahid is right up there with the team's best new guys.

The Red Wolves are already good at safety, and they added more to the mix with the 6-0, 190-pound Shahid, who made 125 tackles with six broken up passes over the last two years at Youngstown State.

Biggest Loss

Cody Sigler, DT (Auburn)
In his one year at Arkansas State, Sigler turned into a whale of an interior pass rusher with five sacks and 35 tackles for loss. And now he'll be a part of the rotation at Auburn.

Other Names to Know

  • Joshua Ofor, LB (NC State)
  • Manasse Itete, OG (Florida State)
  • Noah Flores, CB (Utah State)

CFN Season Prediction

To try threading this prediction needle, Arkansas State should be an okay team with an okay record and with strong overall results.

The glitches might not easily be fixed. The offense will be fine, but all the veteran offensive linemen have to form a better overall unit. The transfer portal will help the defense, but it has to be better, too.

But with the Sun Belt divisional format, it's possible to lose games and still be deep in the mix for the conference title. That's Arkansas State.

CFN Prediction: 7-5

Can the Red Wolves win the road games? Last year they lost to Kennesaw State away from home and dropped the date to a bad ULM team, but they also won their last three road games against South Alabama, Troy, and App State in close games.

This year, they should lose at Memphis and TCU early, and dates at Louisiana and Southern Miss lean loss.

It'll all come down to back-to-back road games against Coastal Carolina and Louisiana Tech late, and then the home game against Troy.

It'll be a fourth straight bowl season without too much of a concern, but it'll take a few breaks to play for the Sun Belt title.

DÇ-2026: Messidən dubl, Argentinadan pley-offa vəsiqə!

Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (ABŞ), Kanada və Meksikada təşkil edilmiş futbol üzrə sayca 23-cü dünya çempionatı (DÇ-2026) davam edir.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Argentina və Avstriya yığmaları üz-üzə gəliblər. Dallasda (Texas, ABŞ) keçirilmiş J qrupunun matçında argentinalılar inamlı qələbəyə seviniblər.

Qolları Argentina yığmasının lideri və kapitani Lionel Messi vurub. O, 38-ci və 90+5-ci dəqiqələrdə fərqlənib.

Bununla da o, dünya çempionatları tarixində 18-ci qolunu vurub və Almaniya yığmasının sabiq forvardı Miroslav Klozeni (16) geridə qoyub.

Messi 9-cu dəqiqədə penaltidən də qol vurmaq fürsəti qazanıb. Amma onun zərbəsi dəqiq alınmayıb.

Beləliklə, hazırda J qrupunda 6 xalı olan Argentina millisi son matçın nəticəsindən asılı olmayaraq, 1/16 finala vəsiqəni təmin edib. Avstriya yığmasının 3 xalı varsa, İordaniya və Əlcəzair xal hesabını aça bilməyib.

Messidən rekord

Argentina millisinin futbolçusu Lionel Messi dünya çempionatlarında əsas mərhələdə ən çox qol vuran futbolçu olub.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, hücumçu Avstriya ilə hazırda davam edən matçda fərqlənməklə buna nail olub. Qollarının sayını 17-yə çatdıran Messi bu göstəricidə mütləq rekordçudur.

İkinci hissəsi davam edən Argentina – Avstriya oyununda “tanqoçular” öndədir – 1:0.

Watch: Lionel Messi becomes World Cup’s all-time top goalscorer with strike against Austria

Lionel Messi has broken the record. The Argentine icon has put his side ahead against Austria, becoming the highest goalscorer in World Cup history with a moment that will be replayed for generations.

The stage was set early for Messi to make history when Argentina were awarded a penalty in the opening stages but the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner showed his human side, sending the spot-kick wide and leaving the record temporarily out of reach.

Lionel Messi’s record breaking goal vs Austria

It looked as though the moment might pass him by. Austria held firm, and the tension inside the stadium grew with every passing minute.

But Messi being Messi, he refused to be denied. Thirty minutes after his penalty miss, the 38-year-old unleashed a brilliant, composed finish from the edge of the box that left the goalkeeper with no chance.

The goal means Messi now stands alone at the summit of World Cup history.

HE'S DONE IT!! ???

Messi makes World Cup history

 

The record-breaking goal is the culmination of a remarkable tournament for the Argentine captain.

It was his hat-trick against Algeria in the opening group stage clash vs Algeria that drew him level with German legend Miroslav Klose on 16 World Cup goals, a mark many thought would never be surpassed.

Tonight, he surpassed it. And given his current form, he might end the World Cup campaign with a number that could put the record out of reach for others to come.

1 Lionel Messi Argentina 17

World Cup All-Time Top Goalscorers

The match against Austria is still ongoing, and Messi will be hungry for more. But whatever happens from here, the little boy from Rosario has written his name into World Cup history forever and no one can take it from him.

Misir millisi tarixində ilk dəfə DÇ-də qələbə qazandı

Misir millisi futbol üzrə dünya çempionatları tarixində ilk qələbəsini qazanıb, hücumçusu Məhəmməd Salah isə yeni rekorda imza atıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, Afrika təmsilçisi DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunda Yeni Zelandiyanı 3:1 hesabı ilə məğlub edərək tarixi uğura imza atıb.

Kanadanın Vankuver şəhərində keçirilmiş qarşılaşmada Yeni Zelandiya hesabı açsa da, misirlilər geridönüş etməyi bacarıblar. Yeni zelandiyalıların heyətində Finn Serman 15-ci dəqiqədə fərqlənib. Misirin qollarını isə Mustafa Ziko (58), Məhəmməd Salah (67) və Trezeqe (82) vurublar.

Bu qələbəyədək Misir millisi dünya çempionatlarının final mərhələsində keçirdiyi səkkiz oyunda üç heç-heçə edib və beş dəfə məğlub olmuşdu. Beləliklə, yığma mundial tarixində ilk qələbəsini doqquzuncu matçında əldə edib.

Məhəmməd Salah isə Misir yığmasının yeni rekordçusu olub. Təcrübəli hücumçu Misir millisinin tarixində qol vurmuş ən yaşlı futbolçu adına sahib çıxıb. O,, Yeni Zelandiya ilə matçda 34 yaş 6 günlüyündə qapıya yol tapmaqla Maqdi Abdelqaninin rekordunu geridə qoyub. Abdelqani 1990-cı ildə keçirilmiş Niderland ilə matçda qol vurarkən 30 yaş 320 günlük idi.

Yeni Zelandiya millisi isə dünya çempionatlarında dörd oyundan ibarət məğlubiyyətsiz seriyasını başa vurub. Okeaniya təmsilçisi 2010-cu il mundialında qrup mərhələsində keçirdiyi hər üç oyunda heç-heçə etmişdi.

İki turdan sonra G qrupunda Misir 4 xalla turnir cədvəlinə başçılıq edir. İran və Belçikanın hərəsinin 2 xalı var. Yeni Zelandiya isə 1 xalla sonuncu pillədə qərarlaşıb.

Qrup mərhələsinin son turunda Misir İranla, Belçika isə Yeni Zelandiya ilə üz-üzə gələcək.

Qeyd edək ki, ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikada keçirilən DÇ-2026 iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq. Dünya çempionatında ilk dəfə 48 komanda iştirak edir. Turnirin son qalibi Argentina millisidir.

Lamin Yamal: “Mən həmişə DÇ-yə düşməyi arzulamışam”

İspaniya millisinin hücumçusu Lamin Yamal dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Səudiyyə Ərəbistanına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, ərəblər üzərində qazanılmış 4:0 hesablı qələbədən sonra təəssüratlarını bölüşüb.

18 yaşlı futbolçu komandanın ilk turdakı uğursuzluqdan nəticə çıxardığını və hazırda daha yaxşı vəziyyətdə olduqlarını bildirib.

“Biz oyunun ilk hissəsini keçirib bir qədər dincəlməyi planlaşdırmışdıq, amma əsas məqsəd komandaya kömək etmək idi. İlk oyunda özümüz kimi deyildik, lakin indi formaya düşmüşük və daha artığını etməyə hazırıq.

Hər şey istədiyimiz kimi alındı: üç top fərqi ilə üstünlük qazanmağımız mənə dincəlmək imkanı verdi. Buna görə də hər şey ideal keçdi. Qalib gəlməli olduğunu düşündüyün oyunda heç-heçə etmək xoş deyil. Biz bu barədə çox düşündük və bu matça məhz istədiyimiz şəkildə yanaşdıq”.

Gənc futbolçu dünya çempionatında start heyətində çıxdığı ilk oyunda qol vurmağın onun üçün xüsusi məna daşıdığını vurğulayıb.

“Mən həmişə dünya çempionatına düşməyi arzulamışam. Start heyətində keçirdiyim ilk mundial oyununda qol vurmaq sadəcə bir xəyaldır. Son dünya çempionatını məktəbdə sinif otağında izləyirdim. İndi isə burada, anamın və bütün ailəmin gözü qarşısında qol vurmaq sadəcə möhtəşəm hissdir”.

Yamal “Barselona”nın yetirməsidir və 2023-cü ilin aprel ayından əsas komandada çıxış edir. Gənc futbolçu Kataloniya klubu ilə üç dəfə İspaniya çempionu (2023, 2025, 2026), iki dəfə İspaniya Super Kubokunun qalibi (2025, 2026), bir dəfə isə ölkə kubokunun sahibi (2025) olub.

Lamin Yamal İspaniya millisinin heyətində keçirdiyi 27 oyunda 7 qol vurub və 12 məhsuldar ötürmə ilə yadda qalıb.

“Qalatasaray”ın futbolçusu üçün mundial bitdi

Fil Dişi Sahili millisi ciddi itki ilə üzləşib.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, yığmanın müdafiəçisi Vilfrid Sinqo zədələnib. Almaniya ilə dünya çempionatının II tur matçında (1:2) zədələnən oyunçu azı 3 ay yaşıl meydanlardan uzaq qalacaq.

Sinqo “Qalatasaray” klubunun da üzvüdür.

Fil Dişi Sahili yığması mundialda qrupda Almaniya, Ekvador və Kurasao ilə mübarizə aparır. Yığma 1 xalla qrupda ikinci sıradadır.

World Cup 2026: Argentina vs Austria line-ups – Lautaro Martinez starts with Messi

Inter striker Lautaro Martinez leads the line with Lionel Messi as Argentina face Austria in the 2026 World Cup with a head-to-head for the top of Group J.

It kicks off in Dallas at 18.00 UK time (19.00 CEST, 12.00 local time).

This will be a head-to-head to see who wins the group, as Argentina opened with a 3-0 victory over Algeria thanks to the Messi hat-trick, while Austria pushed Jordan aside 3-1 in their first game.

Whoever gets the three points today will practically book their place in the Round of 32.

Inter captain Lautaro Martinez will be hoping for his first goal of the tournament, as he again partners Messi upfront in Lionel Scaloni’s side, with Como talent Nico Paz on the bench.

The only change from the first game is ex-Udinese full-back Nahuel Molina in for Gonzalo Montiel.

As they seek to retain the World Cup trophy, they also mark the 40th anniversary of Diego Armando Maradona’s ‘Hand of God’ goal against England at the 1986 World Cup.

Austria are safe in the knowledge they locked down coach Ralf Rangnick, who had been approached by Milan to take over as their new technical director.

Instead, he signed a new contract and will remain in charge of their national team going forward.

Ex-Inter striker Marko Arnautovic is still going strong at age 37, while Venezia defender Michael Svoboda recently earned promotion to Serie A.

Both are on the bench, but Como-owned defender Stefan Posch starts.

Report Suzuki focus of Aston Villa and Leeds United bidding war

Aston Villa have reportedly begun talks with intermediaries for Zion Suzuki, but Parma are hoping a bidding war erupts with Leeds United for the goalkeeper.

The Japan international had already impressed in Serie A this season by helping them secure a mid-table finish, and is now pulling out all the stops at the 2026 World Cup for his country too.

There had already been reports in Italy over the last few days that Aston Villa had chosen Suzuki as the ideal heir to Emiliano Martinez, who would seem to be close to a Serie A switch for Juventus.

Suzuki targeted by Premier League clubs

Now teamTALK claim that the Premier League club has stepped up the pursuit by contacting intermediaries, hoping to put themselves in pole position for the Japanese-Ghanaian star.

However, Aston Villa are seemingly yet to speak directly with Parma, so any formal proposal is still quite a long way off.

The same source also notes that Leeds United have put Suzuki on their wish list, so Parma are hoping a Premier League bidding war breaks out.

He was purchased from Belgian side Sint-Truiden for €8.2m plus add-ons in 2024 and has a release clause in his contract worth €40m, which puts Parma in a very strong bargaining position.

His deal at the Stadio Tardini runs to June 2029 and Suzuki will celebrate his 24th birthday in August.

It had been a tough campaign for the goalkeeper, who was out of action from November 2025 to February 2026 after fracturing a bone in his hand.

Serie A World Cup Watchlist: Future Moves and Rising Stars

The 2026 World Cup gives Serie A one of its biggest stages in years. Even without Italy’s presence, the league’s players, prospects, and transfer stories remain central to betting sites and how clubs, scouts, and fans will read the summer market.

Below, the focus is on the players who could rise, the established stars under pressure, and the deals that may follow. From breakout attackers to unsettled forwards, Serie A has enough storylines to shape much of the post-tournament conversation.

Why Serie A talent will be under the spotlight

The league’s growing influence on the international stage

Serie A no longer feels like a league defined only by defensive caution. Its clubs now produce flexible attackers, sharp midfielders, and modern defenders who can handle different systems. That range helps explain why so many Italy-based players arrive at the World Cup already prepared.

How the World Cup shapes player reputations

A strong month at the World Cup can change how a player is judged faster than a full domestic season. Nico Paz, Kenan Yildiz, and Maduka Okoye all have the platform to turn club momentum into wider recognition, stronger value, and serious transfer interest.

Why scouts focus heavily on Serie A representatives

Scouts trust Serie A players because the league teaches details that travel well. Positioning, pressing responsibility, and tactical patience matter when matches become tense. That makes its representatives easier to assess, especially for Premier League clubs looking for talent that can adapt quickly.

Breakout performers ready for global recognition

Young attackers with the potential to become stars

Nico Paz and Kenan Yildiz bring different kinds of excitement, especially in a tournament already full of possible breakout stars. Paz has Como’s calm playmaking touch, while Yildiz gives Turkey direct running, close control, and Juventus-level confidence.

Midfielders capable of controlling the biggest matches

Samuele Ricci and Reda Belahyane show why breakout stories in midfield often feel less flashy but more important. Ricci can slow chaos with clean passing, while Belahyane adds energy, tackles, and forward carries that help World Cup players turn pressure into dangerous attacks quickly. 

Defenders prepared to elevate their status.

Tarik Muharemovic and Nicolo Savona both fit the modern defender profile scouts now chase. Muharemovic brings size, calm passing, and aerial security, while Savona offers tactical flexibility that lets him play wider or tuck inside without weakening the defensive shape.

Goalkeepers who could emerge among the tournament’s best

Maduka Okoye and Devis Vasquez have the kind of tournament roles that can change reputations fast. Okoye’s Udinese season showed volume and command, while Vasquez offers agility, sweeping, and distribution that may stand out if Colombia faces sustained pressure.

Established Serie A stars facing major expectations

Leaders expected to carry their national teams

Lautaro Martínez, Dušan Vlahović, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia carry different national burdens, but the demand is similar. Each must handle goals, leadership, and World Cup pressure, where even outside noise can make tight matches feel heavier, as often suggested by Serie A predictions.

Players seeking redemption after difficult seasons

Rafael Leão, Marcus Thuram, and Jonathan David need the World Cup to change the mood around them. Leão must show consistency, Thuram needs goals to support his value, and David has to prove that his struggles at Juventus have not damaged him.

Veterans chasing a defining World Cup legacy

Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Romelu Lukaku, and Danilo know this tournament may shape how their international careers are remembered. They bring experience, tactical calm, and responsibility, but legacy now depends on performances worthy of a Serie A trophy pursuit. 

Transfer targets who could dominate headlines

Rising stars already attracting elite European interest

Nico Paz and Kenan Yildiz already had serious attention before the tournament, but World Cup minutes can make that interest harder to control. Paz brings creative output, while Yildiz offers Juventus star power with the profile Club World Cup players usually build early. 

Players entering the final stage of their current projects

Rafael Leão and Jonathan David both feel close to turning points. Leão needs a fresh challenge after an uneven Milan season, while David’s Juventus spell has not matched expectations, making the World Cup a useful stage for a cleaner exit.

World Cup performances that could trigger bidding wars

Maduka Okoye and Samuele Ricci show how one strong tournament can change the market. Okoye can raise his price with decisive saves, while Ricci’s calm control in midfield could attract clubs desperate for press-resistant passing and tactical balance.

Contracts and situations that make transfers realistic

Some moves feel possible because the background already supports them. Marcus Thuram has a major release clause, Inter need defensive renewal, and Juventus are changing recruitment direction, which makes targets like Tarik Muharemovic, Marco Palestra, and Brahim Díaz more realistic.

The clubs most represented on the World Cup stage

Which Serie A teams provide the most internationals

Inter, Juventus, and AC Milan remain the clearest sources of international quality, with players spread across major national teams. As fans follow the World Cup schedule, Atalanta, Bologna, and clubs linked to Che Adams show Serie A’s presence beyond traditional powers. 

How club success influences international recognition

Club success often makes international managers more confident when selecting players. Deep European runs, Scudetto races, and demanding tactical systems prove that these Serie A names can handle pressure before they even arrive at the World Cup with their countries.

The benefits of having multiple World Cup participants

Having several players at the World Cup can create worries for Serie A clubs, especially when fatigue, injuries, and short recovery windows become part of the season planning. Still, below is why strong international representation can also become a major advantage.

  • Clubs gain wider visibility when their players perform well in front of global audiences.
  • Strong World Cup displays can increase player valuations before the summer market heats up.
  • FIFA compensation can bring useful financial returns for every player involved in the tournament.
  • Future signings may see Serie A as a league where international careers can grow faster.
  • Clubs with many representatives can strengthen their reputation as serious talent developers.

These benefits matter because World Cup exposure does not end when the tournament finishes. A strong showing can influence negotiations, recruitment, sponsorship interest, and player confidence, giving Serie A clubs more leverage both on and off the pitch.

Position-by-position watchlist

Defenders capable of becoming transfer priorities

Tarik Muharemovic and Nicolo Savona give scouts two useful defensive profiles. Muharemovic offers size, aerial control, and left-footed build-up, while Savona’s flexibility makes him valuable to teams that need a full-back like Yerry Mina to protect central spaces. 

Midfielders with elite technical and tactical qualities

Samuele Ricci and Reda Belahyane show why midfield value is often about control, not noise. Ricci can settle matches with press-resistant passing, while Belahyane brings tackles, energy, and quick carries that help Morocco move forward after recoveries in dangerous moments.

Wingers bringing pace and creativity

Nico Paz and Kenan Yildiz bring the kind of attacking variety that makes tournament scouting interesting. Paz can create from half-spaces with his left foot, while Yildiz gives Turkey direct dribbling, sharp changes of pace, and brave decisions near goal.

Strikers who could increase their market value

Marcus Thuram and Jonathan David have different situations, but both can raise their market value with goals. Thuram needs to justify elite interest, while David must show that his difficult season at Juventus has not compromised his movement or finishing instincts.

Future moves that could reshape Serie A

Premier League clubs monitoring Italian-based talent

Premier League clubs remain the loudest threat because they can move quickly when a player looks ready. Rafael Leão, Marcus Thuram, and Samuele Ricci all fit different English needs, while Zion Suzuki represents another profile attracting growing international attention. 

Interest from Spain, Germany, and France

Spain, Germany, and France will also watch Serie A closely, but their focus may be more specific. Nico Paz’s situation keeps Spanish attention high, while Bundesliga clubs value energetic midfielders and PSG often looks to Italy for proven big-match talent.

Potential domestic transfers within Serie A

Serie A’s internal market could be just as important as foreign interest. Juventus want Brahim Díaz to bring more unpredictability, while Inter’s defensive rebuild makes Tarik Muharemovic, Marco Palestra, and Johan Vasquez realistic targets after the World Cup. 

The growing role of emerging football markets

Emerging markets now affect Serie A planning more directly than before. Saudi clubs can turn release clauses into immediate exits, while MLS becomes more attractive during a North American World Cup, especially for veterans seeking money, visibility, and a different final chapter.

Players with the most to gain from the tournament

Talents seeking their first breakthrough

Nico Paz, Kenan Yildiz, and Reda Belahyane all fit the breakthrough category. Paz has elite creative momentum, Yildiz carries Juventus pressure with maturity, and Belahyane can use Morocco to show that his Serie A energy belongs alongside John Yeboah at a higher level. 

Squad players aiming to secure bigger roles

Timothy Weah, Samuel Chukwueze, and Davide Frattesi need the tournament for leverage. Weah wants a clearer attacking role, Chukwueze needs consistent trust at Milan, and Frattesi can make Inter rethink how often he starts instead of changing matches late.

Individuals playing for lucrative career opportunities

Marcus Thuram, Jonathan David, and Maduka Okoye are playing for serious financial outcomes. Thuram has a release clause to justify, David needs to rebuild value after Juventus frustration, and Okoye can turn strong Nigeria performances into elite goalkeeper interest.

The next generation of Serie A stars

Young prospects expected to shine after the World Cup

Kenan Yildiz, Nico Paz, and Reda Belahyane feel like players whose post-tournament status could rise quickly. Yildiz brings star power, Paz offers refined creativity, and Belahyane gives Verona a high-energy midfielder who may soon outgrow his current setting.

Academy graduates nearing elite status

Marco Palestra, Nicolo Savona, and Francesco Camarda show why academy development still matters in Serie A. Palestra offers Atalanta’s wing-back energy, Savona reflects Juventus’s tactical schooling, and Camarda remains Milan’s carefully managed striker for the next cycle.

Future leaders for club and country

Samuele Ricci, Tarik Muharemovic, and Lautaro Martínez point to different kinds of leadership. Ricci controls rhythm, Muharemovic organises from the back, and Lautaro already shows how a Serie A star can become a reference point for club and country.

Predictions for the post-World Cup transfer market

Players most likely to secure high-profile moves

Rafael Leão and Jonathan David feel most likely to make major exits if their tournaments go well. Leão has Premier League attention after an uneven Milan season, while David can use Canada’s home stage to rebuild value after a frustrating Juventus campaign.

Potential record-breaking transfer fees

Marcus Thuram’s release clause could become one of the summer’s biggest triggers if France gives him the right platform. Meanwhile, Nico Paz may force Como into a difficult decision if elite clubs turn his World Cup rise into huge offers.

Clubs expected to face intense interest in their stars

Inter, Como, and Torino may spend the summer defending their most valuable assets. Inter must manage Thuram’s interest and a defensive change; Como will face pressure around Paz; and Torino could receive serious bids for Samuele Ricci, whose controlled midfield profile is in demand.

Which breakout performers could define the next transfer window

Kenan Yildiz, Maduka Okoye, and Reda Belahyane could shape the next window in different ways. Yildiz affects attacking valuations, Okoye may define the goalkeeper market, and Belahyane offers the high-energy midfield profile many clubs now want.

How the World Cup could influence Serie A’s future

Increased visibility for Italian football

Italian football benefits when Serie A players become important figures in matches watched everywhere. If talents like Yildiz, Paz, or Ricci look comfortable under World Cup pressure, the league’s modern identity feels clearer to fans who still remember old defensive stereotypes.

The financial impact of successful international performances

Successful international performances can give Serie A clubs more than pride. Player values rise quickly, FIFA compensation provides useful income, and selling at the right moment can generate the funds needed for rebuilds before another expensive season begins in Italy.

New stars capable of becoming the faces of the league

Serie A needs fresh faces, and the World Cup can speed up that shift. Kenan Yildiz, Nico Paz, and Samuele Ricci all offer different kinds of appeal, giving the league young, marketable names to follow beyond older established stars.

Long-term implications for clubs, players, and recruitment strategies

The bigger lesson may be how clubs plan after the tournament. Juventus, Inter, and others could place greater trust in live scouting, academy development, and younger profiles, especially if World Cup performances prove that Serie A’s next generation is already prepared.

Conclusion

Serie A’s World Cup watchlist is not only about who plays well for one month. It is about how those performances change value, trust, and timing, especially for clubs trying to rebuild before the next domestic season begins.

For fans, the tournament offers a clear look at the league’s present and future. Some players will protect their status, others will force bigger moves, and a younger group may return to Italy with a completely different level of attention.

FAQs

What makes World Cup scouting different from club scouting?

World Cup scouting compares players in unfamiliar systems against opponents they rarely face. It helps clubs test decision-making outside rehearsed club routines.

Can one poor World Cup hurt a player’s market value?

Yes, but clubs rarely judge a player on a single tournament. Poor displays can raise doubts when they confirm existing concerns.

Why do clubs watch off-ball movement during tournaments?

Off-ball movement shows intelligence that statistics can miss. It reveals how players create space, support teammates, and react when possession changes quickly.

How can World Cup pressure affect future contract talks?

World Cup pressure can strengthen a player’s negotiating position if performance matches demand. Agents often use tournament evidence to justify improved terms.

Analysis: Spain, Michael Jordan and the siege of Chattanooga

Spain smote Saudi Arabia with such brusque intent on Sunday evening that by the time the first hydration break arrived, the thirst for a reaction had been quenched. Lamine Yamal pierced the Saudi defence time and again. When Mikel Oyarzabal touched the ball, it was a chance, if not a goal. This Spain was exuberant, quick, aggressive without recklessness. More than anything, it was familiar. What none of us realised at the time is that Spain managed to do all of it while under siege.

Their opening draw against Cabo Verde came out of the deep blue, and more than anything, baffled the Spanish public. La Roja have treated their country to success, but have done so playing with fluid movement and a pioneering spirit, the faces of Lamine Yamal, Nico Williams and Rodri Hernandez visible on the bow of the ship. When Cabo Verde massaged a slightly misshapen Spain attack into lethargy, committing just a single foul, it was met with a slightly perturbed Spain crowd, but no more frustrated than the Spain players themselves.

It is a monument to the faith in this Spain side that it was not met with hysteria, but instead simple disappointment in that particular performance. ‘Upset’, shouted Diario AS, ‘Red Alert’ read Sport, and Mundo Deportivo were a little more emotional with ‘What a Comedown.’ It’s true that Marca permitted themselves a more melodramatic headline with ‘Historic Disappointment,’ but the most derogatory, meting out disdain in equal measure, came from BILD in Germany, who declared ‘A Group of Islands Embarrass Spain.’ Below the headlines though, and beyond the first few minutes of the nightly analysis of Spain’s problems over the airwaves, was a refreshingly mature perspective.

To summarise the general sentiment, Luis de la Fuente’s side had been unable to move the ball swiftly enough, and his selection of Gavi didn’t quite convince, but the return of Lamine Yamal to the starting XI, and Pedri to his best position, deeper in midfield, would remedy many of the ills in Atlanta. “A wake-up call is not a bad thing, quite the opposite,” shrugged former Spain manager Jose Antonio Camacho on Cadena SER. All things that de la Fuente has done before, and did against Saudi Arabia, and with regard to the tempo, the very thing that the players and de la Fuente had pointed to as an issue.

“It’s normal that they were upset or furious. Nobody likes having their professionalism, ability, or work questioned. This reaction is logical, but it’s no different from things we’ve done in the past,” said pointedly after their sharp 4-0 response. “We wanted to make a statement, to assert ourselves.”

Before the match, Lamine Yamal was already a little acidic before he shredded the left side of the Saudi defence. “You want to jump to conclusions. Now Spain is terrible. But those who know, know that’s not the case,” he complained after several days of stewing in Spain’s base camp in Chattanooga, Tennessee. “We’re calm, even with all the noise from outside,” said Gavi’s much more natural alternative on the left, a rather satisfied Alex Baena, on the other side of the Saudi rout.

Spain’s style of play is expansive, sweeping, at times it feels as if it can rip through any opposition in the world. Their squad is full of talent, and firm in its belief in its own abilities, and behind them are, as de la Fuente is not slow to point out, 33 games without defeat. Hence why the siege mentality response feels… A little unconvincing. Or at least ill-fitting. While Spain are in fact taking on the rest of the world en route to glory, they rank high among the favourites to win the World Cup, and few contenders have seduced as many neutrals.

Were this de la Fuente side closer to La Furia Roja, the Red Fury, a whirling dervish of legs and studs famed for bad-tempered victories, perhaps it would be easier to buy from the outside. Perhaps de la Fuente and this Spain squad need a beast to slay though. Coming into Euro 2024, few gave the 63-year-old rookie manager and his young side much hope of winning it.

Who can forget Adrien Rabiot’s perplexing desire to lay down a challenge to Lamine Yamal before the semi-final? Four years on from the release of The Last Dance, Michael Jordan’s words vibrated through Lamine Yamal’s phenomenal equaliser. Prior to that, the squad had rallied around their captain Alvaro Morata, who was shaded by a question mark wherever he walked, until he hoisted the trophy high above his head.

“No one is immune to criticism,” a more placated de la Fuente commented later in his press conference, statement made. “Their pride was stung, their self-image. They can do even better, but those comments they receive motivate them, and that’s good.” Just as the great Jordan constantly found something to take personally, the optimistic Spaniard will hope that the contrived bullishness hints at a similar mindset.

Kevin Lenini DÇ tarixində unikal rekorda imza atdı

Futbol üzrə Kabo Verde milli komandasının yarımmüdafiəçisi Kevin Lenini dünya çempionatları tarixində unikal rekorda imza atıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, “Krasnodar”ın futbolçusu DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunda Uruqvaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunda komandasının mundiallardakı ilk qolunu vuraraq adını tarixə yazdırıb.

21-ci dəqiqədə birbaşa cərimə zərbəsini dəqiq yerinə yetirmiş Kevin Lenini Kabo Verde millisinin dünya çempionatlarındakı ilk qolunun müəllifi olub.

Opta statistik platformasının məlumatına görə, bununla da Kabo Verde mundial tarixində turnirdəki ilk qolunu birbaşa cərimə zərbəsindən vurmiş ilk milli komanda kimi rekorda sahib çıxıb.

Qeyd edək ki, Kabo-Verde millisi tarixində ilk dəfə dünya çempionatının final mərhələsində iştirak edir. Afrika təmsilçisi ilk turda İspaniya ilə qolsuz heç-heçə etmişdi (0:0).

ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikada keçirilən DÇ-2026 iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq. Mundial tarixində ilk dəfə 48 komanda turnirdə iştirak edir. Komandalar 12 qrupa bölünüb və hər qrupdan ilk iki yeri tutan yığmalarla yanaşı, ən yaxşı nəticə göstərən səkkiz üçüncü yer sahibi də 1/16 finala yüksələcək.

İran millisi dünya çempionatları tarixinə yeni rekordla düşdü

İran millisi futbol üzrə dünya çempionatları tarixində bir matça çıxmış ən yaşlı start heyətinin rekordunu müəyyənləşdirib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunda Belçikaya qarşı keçirilən oyunda İran yığmasının start heyətinin orta yaşı 32 il 181 gün təşkil edib.

Bununla da iranlılar mundiallar tarixində yeni rekordun müəllifi olublar.

Maraqlıdır ki, İran millisinin start heyətində meydana çıxmış futbolçulardan yalnız üçü 30 yaşdan aşağı olub. Bunlar müdafiəçi Saleh Hardani (27 yaş 177 gün), hücumçu Məhəmməd Mohebi (27 yaş 183 gün) və yarımmüdafiəçi Səid Ezzətollahi (29 yaş 263 gün) olub.

Bununla yanaşı, əvvəlki rekord 1998-ci ildən Almaniya millisinə məxsus idi. Həmin vaxt almanlar qrup mərhələsində məhz İran yığmasına qarşı oyuna orta yaşı 31 il 334 gün olan heyətlə çıxmışdılar.

Yeri gəlmişkən, İran millisinin futbolçuları Belçika ilə oyundan sonra sülhə çağırış mesajı yayıblar.

Xatırladaq ki, Los-Ancelesdə baş tutan qarşılaşma qolsuz heç-heçə ilə yekunlaşıb. İran yığmasının futbolçuları matçdan sonra aşağıdakı mesajı paylaşıblar:

“Min illər əvvəlki qədim Farsdan bu günkü sivilizasiyaya qədər İranın ruhu yaşayır və güclü olaraq qalır. Biz Los-Ancelesə qürur hissi ilə gəldik, şərəflə mübarizə apardıq və ləyaqətlə ayrılırıq.

Qonaqpərvərliyinizə görə təşəkkür edirik, Los-Anceles. Həmçinin bu iki oyun ərzində ürəyini, səsini və ruhunu komandaya verən hər bir iranlıya təşəkkür edirik. Qoy bütün xalqlar arasında sülh, qarşılıqlı hörmət və dostluq hökm sürsün”.

Qeyd edək ki, İran millisi qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda Yeni Zelandiya ilə 2:2 hesablı heç-heçə edib. İranlılar son turda, iyunun 27-də Misir yığması ilə qarşılaşacaqlar.

DÇ-2026 ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikada keçirilir. İlk dəfə 48 komandanın iştirak etdiyi mundial iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq. Turnirin son qalibi isə Argentina millisidir.

Montella ‘not given the chance to resign’ after Turkiye World Cup failure

Turkish Football Federation President Ibrahim Haciosmanoglu assured Italian coach Vincenzo Montella would not resign or be fired after the 2026 World Cup debacle.

While Turkiye had been tipped to be one of the dark horses for the competition in the USA, Canada and Mexico, they were a huge disappointment.

They lost the opening match of the tournament 2-0 to Australia, then suffered a 1-0 defeat to a Paraguay side that was down to 10 men for the entire second half.

This makes the result of the final group game against the USA entirely futile, as the squad including Kenan Yildiz and Hakan Calhanoglu will be eliminated.

Montella under fire as Turkiye coach

There have been calls for Montella to resign or be fired in the wake of these dismal results, despite the fact he only recently signed a new contract that runs to July 2028.

However, Turkish Football Federation President Haciosmanoglu spoke to reporters before today’s training session and calmed the waters.

“Everyone’s heart aches, because these were not the ambitions we had going into this World Cup, but the 85 million in our beloved nation should know that everyone worked hard here and is just as saddened as they are.

“Let’s not forget it was ‘Our Boys’ who brought us here. Most of them are around 20 years old, they will perhaps play in three or four more tournaments over the coming years. They are our children and we need to support them.

“We will stand by our coach, and we will stand by our players. This is not a club team, and even there failures occur due to a lack of consistency. You can’t get rid of 15 players and bring in 15 more, or change coach for another.

“For the last two days, the media has been writing the names of various coaches, but those who know our character must realise we never replace those who we’ve met along the way with those we find.

“If this coaching staff and these players achieved successes in two years, we will stand by them.”

Montella took the Turkiye national team job in September 2023 and has overall been fairly successful, taking them to the quarter-finals of EURO 2024 and then qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.

When President Haciosmanoglu was asked if Montella’s resignation had ever been discussed, he cut short any conversation.

“I never gave him a chance to say it. We didn’t have that kind of conversation, and there’s no need to give him that chance to say it anyway. If you’re the President, you need to understand the psychology of both the player and the coach.

“You must support them, not drag them into this situation.”

The overall record on the Turkiye bench for Italian Montella is of 20 victories, five draws and 10 defeats.

Lamin Yamal və İspaniya millisi DÇ-nin tarixinə düşdü

İspaniya millisinin hücumçusu Lamin Yamal futbol üzrə dünya çempionatları tarixində 19 yaşına çatmamış hesabı açan ikinci futbolçu olub.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, 18 yaşlı forvard DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunda Səudiyyə Ərəbistanına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunda fərqlənərək adını mundial tarixinə yazdırıb.

Bu göstərici üzrə rekord üçqat dünya çempionu, braziliyalı əfsanə Peleyə məxsusdur. O, 1958-ci ildə keçirilmiş dünya çempionatında 17 yaşında olarkən Uels millisi ilə qarşılaşmada yeganə qolu vuraraq komandasına qələbə qazandırmışdı.

Qeyd edək ki, Səudiyyə Ərəbistanı ilə matç Yamal üçün dünya çempionatlarında ilk dəfə start heyətində meydana çıxdığı oyun olub. O, qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda Kabo Verde ilə qolsuz bərabərliklə başa çatan görüşdə ikinci hissədə əvəzedici kimi meydana daxil olmuşdu.

Hazırda 18 yaşı olan Yamal “Barselona”nın yetirməsidir və 2023-cü ilin aprel ayından əsas komandada çıxış edir. Gənc futbolçu Kataloniya klubu ilə üç dəfə İspaniya çempionu (2023, 2025, 2026), iki dəfə İspaniya Super Kubokunun qalibi (2025, 2026), bir dəfə isə ölkə kubokunun sahibi (2025) olub.

Lamin Yamal İspaniya millisinin heyətində keçirdiyi 27 oyunda 7 qol vurub və 12 məhsuldar ötürmə ilə yadda qalıb.

İspaniya millisi isə dünya çempionatları tarixində unikal rekorda imza atıb. Son Avropa çempionu buna Səudiyyə Ərəbistanını məğlub etdiyi oyunda nail olub.

İspaniya tarixdə 18 yaşda iki oyunçunun mundial matçında qol vurduğu ilk milli komanda olub.

Lamin Yamal (18 yaş 343 gün) ötən gün 4:0 hesabı ilə qalib gəldikləri görüşdə fərqlənib. Daha əvvəl Qavi (18 yaş, 110 gün) 2022-ci ildə keçirilmiş turnirdə, Kosta Rika ilə oyunda adını tabloya yazdırmışdı.

Xatırladaq ki, ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikada təşkil olunmuş DÇ-2026 iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq.

De Laurentiis: ‘Incredible’ World Cup organisation, Napoli always ‘competitive and attractive’

Aurelio De Laurentiis praises the 2026 World Cup organisation, which he’s following from Los Angeles: ‘What they call ‘soccer’ here can become something truly important…’

Napoli owner De Laurentiis spoke about the World Cup and its potential implications for Serie A and Italian football in his latest interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.

De Laurentiis, a film producer, has a home in Los Angeles, and has attended some of the World Cup matches at the stadium.

De Laurentiis opens up about Napoli future, Italy national team, World Cup and more

“I’m watching the matches with my wife, my colleagues, and some friends. I saw Switzerland v Bosnia live at SoFi to honour my wife Jacqueline’s nation,” he said.

“An extraordinary stadium, perfect hospitality. Great organisation for traffic and parking too, all without queues. I’ve also just watched Belgium v Iran to greet Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku, two Napoli players. I’ve only watched the USMNT on TV: they’re a very interesting team…”

De Laurentiis is impressed by the level of World Cup organisation in the USA.

“It’s incredible. Despite the very high prices, the stadiums, even those with 70,000 seats, are always packed, even on weekdays,” he said.

“The message we can take from this is that, even in America, what they call ‘soccer’ here can become something truly important.”

The journalist argued that, in American sports, every match becomes a major event.

“We need to move past a major misunderstanding: is football intended as a sports and entertainment industry, or just a sport?” Asked ADL.

“If it’s a sports and entertainment industry, as I and many others believe, it should have a proper balance between costs and revenues, containing costs as much as possible and increasing revenues as much as possible. To make it more spectacular, we should build new stadiums. The existing ones are too old, obsolete…”

De Laurentiis has been vocal about the need for change in Serie A and Italian football, especially after missing out on World Cup qualification for the third time in a row.

The Napoli owner continued to demand “financial aid from the government,” as “football mobilises 28 million voters.”

ADL also called to “abolish all regulations that limit and slow down the construction of new facilities in one fell swoop. Prevent municipalities, superintendencies, and higher authorities from hindering construction under the direction of the super-commissioner for stadiums, who can oversee project quality.

“Regarding the necessary reforms to improve football, let’s be clear,” continued De Laurentiis.

“There isn’t just one, and they require courage. This is what is lacking, because everything would need to be reset and the system refounded in a way that looks to the future and generational changes.”

Last month, De Laurentiis confirmed he had rejected an offer to buy Napoli.

“From 2017 to today, I have received several expressions of interest for Napoli and have turned down billions,” he insisted.

“Now, we should aim for fantastic national leagues with fewer teams, but ones that possess significant economic and financial capacity and large fan bases.

“We should also consider European and global club championships important, while always finding ways to protect players’ health, who should never risk their well-being by playing too many matches. Therefore, I am not worried if funds acquire European clubs. The concern, if anything, is that these acquisitions might occur in a stagnant context, without looking to the future.

“I’ve been hearing about reducing the Serie A championship to 18 teams for about 10 years,” De Laurentiis continued.

“I’ve said many times that there are too many matches played today. There isn’t enough time to train the national team. If we reduced the leagues to 16 teams, we would already reduce the number of matches from the current 380 to 240, which is 140 fewer than now.”

“There would be two months available at the end of the season to truly prepare a national team worthy of competing at the highest levels.”

The FIGC Presidential elections take place today, and Giovanni Malagò is the favourite to succeed Gabriele Gravina.

I am sure that [Giovanni] Malagò will be the right person in the right place and will also be able to solve the various problems affecting Serie A, as well as find solutions for the Azzurri,” De Laurentiis said.

De Laurentiis spent the last few weeks in Los Angeles, where there’s also a strong community of Napoli fans.

“It’s a second home. When I return to Los Angeles, I feel a true sense of freedom and respect for those who succeed and pay their taxes,” ADL said.

“There is no envy or resentment towards those who work hard and achieve great results.

“Napoli will be, as always, strong, competitive, and attractive. Imagine that here in San Pedro, there’s a community of 30,000 Napoli fans. When the film about the last Scudetto was screened at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, the audience’s reaction was enthusiastic. So, to all Neapolitans, I say that our team will remain where it belongs: at the top.

“The coming years will be dedicated to solving two important problems: a club-owned stadium and a training centre,” he concluded.

“These are two issues that will fully occupy me in the near future. However, when I think of Napoli, I think of the most beautiful colour, that azure blue that joins the sea and sky on the horizon, making them an inimitable immensity.’

Hossam Hassan: “İstərdim ki, bu nəsil gələcəyini özü müəyyən etsin”

Misir millisinin baş məşqçisi Hossam Hassan dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Yeni Zelandiyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində baş tutmuş görüşü Misirin 3:1 hesablı qələbəsi ilə yekunlaşıb.

Hossam Hassan matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Fasilədə futbolçulara dedim ki, qələbə qazanmaq əzmi ilə dolmadan və bizə göstərilən dəstəyə görə qürur hiss etmədən meydana qayıtmayacağıq.

Misir futbol ictimaiyyətinə özünəinam qazanmaq, güclü tərəflərindən istifadə etmək, final mərhələsinə gedən yolu təhlil etmək, eləcə də bu imkanları yaratmağa çalışan əvvəlki nəsillərin zəhmətini qiymətləndirmək üçün zamana ehtiyac var idi”.

Baş məşqçi hazırkı futbolçu nəslinin öz taleyini özü müəyyən etməsini istədiyini də vurğulayıb.

“İstəyirdim ki, bu nəsil öz gələcəyini, öz yolunu özü müəyyən etsin. Biz həmçinin milli çempionatın və ümumilikdə Afrika futbolunun inkişafını davam etdirmək istəyirik”.

Hossam Hassann komandanın lideri Məhəmməd Salahın çıxışına da toxunub:

“Salah meydanda çox çalışdı və bunu bilməlisiniz. Ola bilsin ki, onun təhlükəliliyinə, bacarığına və keyfiyyətlərinə ən uyğun mövqedə oynamasına imkan verən ilk məşqçi mənəm. Biz bir çox məqamlar üzərində işləmişik və əminəm ki, onu hələ dəfələrlə meydanda görəcəyik”.

Yeni Zelandiya millisinin baş məşqçisi Darren Beyzli də oyundan sonra fikirlərini bölüşüb. Mütəxəssis komandasının ilk hissədə yaxşı çıxış etdiyini, lakin ikinci yarıda oyunun tempini itirdiyini bildirib:

“Məyusuq. Birinci hissədə çox yaxşı oynadıq. Topa nəzarətdə üstün idik və çoxlu təhlükəli epizodlar yaratdıq. İkinci hissəyə çıxanda hər şeyin qaydasında olacağını düşünürdüm, amma oyunun tempini tuta bilmədik.

Misir sürətini artırdı və biz ilk hissədə uğurla etdiklərimizi təkrarlaya bilmədik. Nəticədə bu, bizə zərər verdi. Tarixi uğura qədər cəmi bir oyunumuz qalıb. Bilirik ki, indi Belçikanı məğlub etməliyik”.

“Dünya çempionatında qol vurmaq inanılmazdır. Hər zaman bunu arzulamışam və start heyətdə çıxdığım ilk oyunda bunu bacardığım üçün çox xoşbəxtəm. Xəyalım gerçəkləşdi. Son dünya çempionatını məktəbdə izləmişdim, indi isə burda qol vururam. Özümlə qürur duyuram”.

Marselo Byelsa: “İntensivliyi azaltmamalı idik”

Uruqvay millisinin baş məşqçisi Marselo Byelsa DÇ-2026-nın H qrupunun ikinci turunda Kabo Verde yığmasına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların məhsuldar keçən görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib – 2:2.

Marselo Byelsa matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında komandasının oyunun müəyyən hissələrində nəzarəti itirdiyini və bunun nəticəyə təsir göstərdiyini bildirib:

“Yaxşı müdafiə olunduğumuz zaman oyun bizə üstünlük qazanmağa imkan verirdi. Oyuna nəzarəti itirdiyimiz anlarda isə bu üstünlük rəqiblə müqayisədə azalırdı. Nəticəyə təsir edən əsas amil oyunun intensivliyini azaltmağımız oldu. Bu isə baş verməməli idi”.

Kabo Verde millisinin baş məşqçisi Bubişta isə Uruqvayla heç-heçəni (2:2) yüksək qiymətləndirib və futbolçularının əzmkarlığını xüsusi vurğulayıb:

“Komandamızı və bütün xalqımızı ürəklə oynadığımız bu oyuna görə təbrik etmək istəyirəm. Matçı çox çətin şəraitdə başa vurduq, çünki bir çox futbolçuda artıq qıcolmalar başlamışdı. Buna baxmayaraq, komandamız bütün matç ərzində cəsarətli idi, daim qələbə qazanmağa çalışırdı və bu, bizi çox sevindirir.

Biz bütün futbolçularımıza inanırıq. Həmişə dəyişikliklər edirik və komandamız hər oyuna qələbə qazanmaq istəyi və yaxşı təşkilatlanmış şəkildə çıxır. Bu gün əldə etdiyimiz nəticədən razı qalmalıyıq”.

Donis: “İspanları saxlamağa gücümüz çatmadı”

Səudiyyə Ərəbistanı millisinin baş məşqçisi Georgios Donis DÇ-2026-da İspaniyaya məğlub olduqları görüşü şərh edib.

Futbolpress.az FIFA-ya istinadən xəbər verir ki, mütəxəssis 0:4 hesabıyla bitən matçla bağlı bunları deyib:

“İspanları saxlamağa gücümüz çatmadı. Oyun alınmayanda və qısa müddətdə üç qol buraxanda bütün planlar pozulur. Çoxlu səhvlər etdik. Komandanı fasilədə sakitləşdirə bilsək də, artıq nəticə bəlli idi.

Hamı başa düşür ki, Yamal kimi oyunçular meydandadırsa, komanda daha qətiyyətli və inamlı oynayır. O, təkbaşına rəqiblərini məğlub etmək gücündədir. Həm “Barselona”da, həm də İspaniya millisində dəfələrlə bunu göstərib”.

“Oyunun tempini aşağı salmamalı idik” – Byelsa

Uruqvay millisinin baş məşqçisi Marselo Byelsa DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsində Kabo Verdeyə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Futbolpress.az FIFA-ya istinadən xəbər verir ki, mütəxəssis 2:2 hesabıyla bitən matçla bağlı bunları deyib:

“Müdafiədə yaxşı oynayanda üstünlük bizdə idi. Lakin bəzi anlarda nəzarəti itirdik. Fərdi səhvlərdən qol buraxdıq və qələbə qazana bilmədik. Oyunun tempini aşağı salmamalı idik. Bu, rəqibə də kömək etdi və sonda da əldə etdiyimiz fürsətləri dəyərləndirə bilmədik”.

Uruqvay H qrupunda 2 xalla 2-ci sıradadır. Komanda sonuncu turda İspaniya ilə üz-üzə gələcək.

“Bu nəticə illər sonra da Misir futbolunun uğuru kimi xatırlanacaq”

Misir millisi dünya çempionatlarının əsas mərhələsində ilk qələbəsini qazanıb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, Afrika təmsilçisi DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunda Yeni Zelandiyaya qalib gəlib – 3:1. Matçda bir qol vuran Məhəmməd Salah oyunla bağlı fikirlərini FIFA-nın mətbuat xidməti ilə bölüşüb:

“İnanılmazdır, bu hissləri sözlə ifadə etmək olmur. Komanda olaraq böyük bir nailiyyətə imza atdıq. Burada hər kəsin əməyi var. Əldə etdiyimiz bu nəticə illər sonra da Misir futbolunun uğuru kimi xatırlanacaq. İndi sadəcə qələbədən zövq almalı və növbəti matça hazırlaşmalıyıq”.

Misir yığması G qrupunda 4 xalla liderdir. Afrikalılar qrupda Belçika, İran və Yeni Zelandiya ilə mübarizə aparır.

 

Diniyevin mundial fikirləri: “Əsas oyunlar qrup mərhələsindən sonra olacaq”

ABŞ, Meksika və Kanadanın ev sahibliyi etdiyi dünya çempionatı davam edir.

Qrup mərhələsinin II turunun matçları keçirilir və son günlərin gündəmi Türkiyə yığmasının Paraqvaya məğlub olmaqla (0:1) qrupda qalmasıdır.

Azərbaycan millisinin sabiq baş məşqçisi Şahin Diniyev “ay-ulduzlular”ın uğursuzluğu və dünya çempionatı oyunları haqda danışdıq:

– Mundialda artıq bir həftə geridə qalıb. Turnirlə bağlı  təəssüratlarınız necədir?
– İlk oyunlarda adaptasiya baxımından problemlər yaşana bilər. Bu mundial göstərir ki, zəif komanda yoxdur. Hələ ikinci turun oyunları gedir. Hansısa komandanı xüsusi fərqləndirmək olmur. Görünən odur ki, eyni səviyyədə, iddialı kollektivlər var.

– Bütün komandalar bir tur keçirib. İndiki məqamda kimləri daha yaxşı hesab edirsiniz?
– Braziliya, İngiltərə, İspaniya və Fransa bir addım öndə görünür. İndi kimisə fərqləndirmək çətindir. Çünki qarşıda vaxt çoxdur və hələ qrup mərhələsi bitməyib. Zədələr, vərəqə cəzaları da oyunların nəticəsinə təsir göstərə bilər. Bu baxımdan, geniş və keyfiyyətli heyətə malik komandalar daha şanslı olacaqlar.

– Ev sahiblərinin çıxışını necə qiymətləndirirsiniz?
– Ev sahibləri Meksika, ABŞ və Kanada da inamlı təsir bağışlayırlar. Yaxşı futbol oynayırlar və onların da irəli gedə biləcəyini düşünürəm.

– Azərbaycanlı futbolsevərlərin yaxından izlədiyi Türkiyə də mundialı erkən bitirdi. Bu barədə fikirləriniz nələrdir?
– Komandamız dediyimiz Türkiyə yığması çox zəif təsir bağışladı. Heyətin keyfiyyətinə görə  bir çox kollektivdən üstün olsalar da, potensiallarından aşağı səviyyədə çıxış etdilər. Şansları qalmadı və bütün türk dünyasını məyus qoydular. Avstraliya və Paraqvay kimi komandaları məğlub edə bilmirsənsə, çox düşünməyə ehtiyac yoxdur.

– İlk oyunda het-trik edən Messinin Argentinası ardıcıl ikinci mundialı qazana bilər?
– Tək Argentina deyil, Almaniyanı da siyahıdan silmək olmaz. Ardıcıl qələbə qazanan almanlar artıq pley-off  düşünürlər. Məncə, Argentina da qrupda büdrəməyəcək. Mundialın əsas oyunları isə qrup mərhələsindən sonra olacaq.

Dünya çempionatı yeni formatda – üç fərqli ölkədə, 48 komandanın iştirakı ilə keçirilir. Yeni formatı və turnirin təşkilati tərəflərini necə dəyərləndirirsiniz?
– Təşkilatçılıq yüksək səviyyədədir. Düzdür, bəzi nüanslar var. Belə deyim, FIFA başqa dünyadır. Lakin hər ölkənin öz qaydaları var və bura gələn komandalar bu reallıqla barışmalıdır. Hazırda əsas mübarizə futbolun populyarlaşması uğrunda gedir və yeni format məhz buna hesablanıb. Turnirdən sonra geniş təhlillər aparılacaq, götür-qoy ediləcək və hansı formatın daha uğurlu olacağına qərar veriləcək.

Greece May 2026: Renault Clio and Hyundai i20 impress in highest market in 16 years

Greek Renault Clio sales are up 138% year-on-year in May.

Note: April 2026 data is also included in the data section of this article.

In April, the Greek new car market recedes -2.8% year-on-year to 14,243 units, leading to a year-to-date tally up 2.5% to 49,055. We bow have data by channel to share, and it’s quite notable. Indeed private sales (=retail) only account for 30% total registrations while corporate sales (leasing, rentals) is at 70% with 10,010 cars. Hybrid models (mild and full) have a 55% share vs. 27% for petrol, 6% for PHEVs, 4.9% for BEVs (693 sales) and 3.6% for diesel.

Strikingly, the Top 4 brands all defy the market with significant YoY gains. Toyota is up 9.1% to 16.6% share vs. 14.8% year-to-date, Peugeot is up 20.4%, Opel up 36.6% and now #3 YTD and Kia gains 28.7% YoY and 10 spots on March to #4. Dacia (+35.8%) also manages a splendid gain at #7.

Model-wise, the Peugeot 2008 (+46.8%) takes the lead both for the month and YTD, unsettling the Toyota Yaris Cross (+32.4%) also in great shape. The Suzuki Vitara (+32%) is up five ranks on last month to #3 while the Kia Picanto (+22.8%) surges 17 spots to #4. The Hyundai i20 (+80.7%), Opel Corsa (+67%) and Toyota C-HR (+66.7%) are the most dynamic in the Top 10.

In May, new car sales are up 3.7% year-on-year to 16,250 units, which is the highest May volume in 16 years: since 2010. The year-to-date volume is now up 2.8% to 65,305. Hybrids (full and mild) represent 56.1% of the market, petrol is at 29.5%, PHEV at 5.9%, BEVs at 5.9% also and diesel at 2.6%. Toyota (+2.6%) remains by far the most popular carmaker in the country with 16.2% share, almost double the #2 Suzuki (+24.5%) which ascends to #3 YTD. Peugeot (-3.5%) and Hyundai (-6.4%) are in difficulty below but Renault (+79.1%), Dacia (+23.2%) and Fiat (+14.6%) shine.

Over one the models charts, the Toyota Yaris Cross (+52.3%) reclaims the pole position both for the month and year-to-date, with the Peugeot 2008 (+6%) down to #3 in May. The Suzuki Swift (+16.9%) soars from outside the April Top 10 directly to 2nd place but isn’t estimated to crack the YTD Top 10 as a result. The Renault Clio (+138%) and Hyundai i20 (+111.2%) post surreal YoY gains with the Suzuki Vitara (+55%), Dacia Sandero (+19.5%) and Toyota Yaris (+12.6%) also in great shape.

Luis de la Fuente matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında fikirlərini paylaşıb. İspaniyalı mütəxəssis komandasının həm taktiki, həm də fiziki baxımdan yaxşı çıxış etdiyini bildirib:

“Birinci hissəni əla keçirdik, ikinci hissədə də yaxşı oynadıq. Ən vacibi odur ki, bu nəticə bizə tempi qorumağa və qarşıdakı vacib matçlara hazırlaşmağa imkan verir. Uruqvaya qarşı bizi çətin və çox gərgin oyun gözləyir.

Biz bunu futbolçularla müzakirə etdik və hamı eyni fikirdə oldu ki, daha vertikal və daha intensiv futbol oynamalıyıq. Bunu zərbələrimizdə də görmək mümkün idi – ilk dəqiqələrdən rəqibə təzyiq göstərir, onları öz cərimə meydançalarına sıxışdırırdıq. Bu yanaşmadan çox razıyıq, lakin inkişaf etməyə və daha da təkmilləşməyə davam etməliyik.

Yamal artıq indi tam gücü ilə oynamaq üçün ideal formadadır. Oyarzabal barədə nə demək olar? Onun kiçik problemləri var idi – hər şeyi açıqlamaq olmaz, amma o, həmişə yüksək səviyyəli oyun nümayiş etdirir. Əlbəttə, matçın necə inkişaf edəcəyini görməli idik, lakin bugünkü qələbə məqsədimizə doğru atılmış vacib addım oldu”.

Səudiyyə Ərəbistanı millisinin baş məşqçisi Giorgos Donis isə qarşılaşmadan sonra rəqibin üstünlüyünü etiraf edib.

“Biz öz cərimə meydançamızda İspaniyanı saxlamaq üçün kifayət qədər güclü deyildik. Həddindən artıq çox səhvə yol verdik. Oyun istədiyiniz kimi getməyəndə və çox qısa müddətdə üç qol buraxanda özünüzə inamınızı itirirsiniz. Belə hallar böyük turnirlərdə tez-tez baş verir.

Hamı görür ki, Yamal kimi futbolçular fərdi keyfiyyətləri və təkbətək epizodlardakı bacarıqları ilə oyunun gedişatını dəyişirlər. O, bunu İspaniya millisində də tez-tez edir və fiziki hazırlığı daha da yaxşılaşdıqca, daha effektiv futbolçuya çevriləcək”.

Rudi Qarsiya: “Bizdə hücumda effektivlik çatışmırdı”

Belçika millisinin baş məşqçisi Rudi Qarsiya dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində İranla qolsuz heç-heçə etdikləri (0:0) oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xatırladır ki, belçikalılar görüşün son 30 dəqiqəsini Natan Nqoyun qırmızı vərəqə alaraq meydandan qovulmasından sonra azlıqda keçiriblər.

Rudi Qarsiya matçdan sonra jurnalistlərə açıqlamasında növbəti xal itkisinə belə şərh verib:

“Bizə hücumda effektivlik çatışmırdı. Məhz belə bir oyun gözləyirdim: təxminən 70 faiz topa sahib olmaq, çoxlu cinah ötürmələri və zərbələr. Çərçivəyə düşən zərbələrimiz oldu, amma rəqib qapıçını kifayət qədər çətin vəziyyətə sala bilmədik. On nəfərlə oynamaq da bizə müsbət emosiyalar vermədi.

Biz əvvəllər də bu üslubda oynamışıq və adətən ən azı üç qol vurmuşuq. Bu, dünya çempionatına bir qədər ləng start verməyimizin tərkib hissəsidir. Bəzən bir qədər tərəddüdlü görünürdük. Bununla belə, indi Yeni Zelandiya ilə matçda hansı nəticəyə ehtiyacımız olduğunu dəqiq bilirik”.

İran millisinin baş məşqçisi Amir Qalenoy isə Belçika ilə heç-heçəni ədalətli nəticə kimi qiymətləndirib:

“Düşünürəm ki, bu, çox maraqlı və gərgin oyun oldu. Hər iki komanda qələbəyə layiq idi, hər ikisi üç xal qazana bilərdi. Bütün futbolçulara, xüsusilə də qapıçı Əli Beyranvanda səmimi təşəkkürümü bildirmək istəyirəm”, – deyə iranlı mütəxəssis bildirib.

Qalenoy həmçinin turnir zamanı komandasının üzləşdiyi viza məhdudiyyətləri və çətin şəraitlə bağlı FIFA-nı və ABŞ hakimiyyətini ictimai şəkildə tənqid etməyə davam edib.

Moriyasu: “Fanatların dəstəyi bizim üçün böyük stimul oldu”

Yaponiya millisinin baş məşqçisi Hajime Moriyasu dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Tunis üzərində qazandıqları 4:0 hesablı qələbəni şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, yaponiyalı mütəxəssis komandasının oyuna yaxşı hazırlaşdığını və futbolçuların verilən tapşırıqları uğurla yerinə yetirdiyini bildirib.

“Biz oyuna yaxşı hazırlaşmışdıq və aqressiv futbol nümayiş etdirdik. Hazırlıq prosesi zamanı məşqçilər korpusu nə etməli olduğumuzu dəqiq şəkildə izah etmişdi və bunun sayəsində futbolçular öz potensiallarını tam ortaya qoya bildilər.

Çoxlu sayda yapon azarkeş Monterreyə gəlmişdi, onlar bizimlə birlikdə dövlət himnimizi oxudular və bizi yüksək səslə dəstəklədilər. Onların dəstəyi bizim üçün böyük stimul oldu”, – deyə Moriyasu FIFA-nın rəsmi saytına açıqlamasında bildirib.

Tunis millisinin baş məşqçisi Herve Renar isə Yaponiyaya 0:4 hesabı ilə məğlub olduqları oyundan sonra rəqibin üstünlüyünü etiraf edib:

“Belə nəticə ilə barışmaq olmaz. Birinci hissədə topa nəzarət vasitəsilə müdafiədən çıxmaqda tamamilə aciz idik. İkinci hissənin ilk iyirmi dəqiqəsində bunu daha yaxşı bacardıq, lakin daha sonra müdafiədə həddindən artıq yumşaq oynadıq.

Hazırda mənəvi durum baxımından vəziyyət asan deyil. Futbolçular əllərindən gələni etdilər, sadəcə, qarşımızda səviyyə baxımından bizi xeyli üstələyən komanda var idi.

Mübarizəni davam etdirməliyik. Futbolçular üçün bu, asan məqam deyil, çünki artıq turnirlə vidalaşdığımız məlumdur. Buna görə də son matçda ən azı bir qədər qürur nümayiş etdirməliyik”, – deyə fransalı mütəxəssis bildirib.

Qeyd edək ki, turnirin ilk iki oyununda məğlub olan Tunis millisi DÇ-2026-nın pley-off mərhələsinə yüksəlmək şansını vaxtından əvvəl itirib. Yaponiya isə 4 xal toplayaraq 1/16 finala vəsiqəni demək olar ki, təmin edib.

Dik Advokat: “Ekvadorla heç-heçə möcüzəyə bərabərdir”

Kurasao milli komandasının baş məşqçisi Dik Advokat DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsində Ekvador yığmasına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib və debütant Kurasao yığması mundiallarda ilk xal sevincini yaşayıb.

Dik Advokat matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında komandasının göstərdiyi mübarizədən razı qaldığını bildirib:

“Məncə, göstərdiyimiz oyun baxımından bu, həqiqətən də əla matç idi. Oyunun sonunda futbolçuların ayaqlarında yorğunluq hiss olunurdu. Komandamın əzmkarlığına heyranam.

Xoşbəxtlikdən, nəticəni qoruyub saxlaya bildik. Düşünürəm ki, buna layiq idik, çünki bizim də qol vurmaq imkanlarımız oldu. Yaxşı oyun keçirdik. Kurasao üçün Ekvadorla heç-heçə etmək möcüzəyə bərabərdir”.

Ekvador millisinin baş məşqçisi Sebastyan Bekkasese isə qolsuz bərabərliklə yekunlaşan oyundan sonra nəticəyə görə məsuliyyəti öz üzərinə götürüb.

“Futbolda izahı mümkün olmayan şeylər var. Biz qalib gəlmək istəyirdik, amma bunu bacarmadıq. Buna görə məsuliyyət daşıyan şəxs mənəm. Komandama dedim ki, əgər sonadək mübarizə aparırsınızsa və bütün gücünüzü ortaya qoyursunuzsa, sizə heç bir iradım yoxdur.

Nə qədər ki, şansımız var, sona qədər mübarizə aparacağıq. Biz çox sıx birləşmiş kollektivik, bir ailə kimiyik. Heç kim bunun asan olacağını demirdi. Komanda əldə etdiyindən daha artığına layiq idi və buna görə məsuliyyəti mən daşıyıram”.

DÇ-2026: Kurasao millisindən tarixi heç-heçə

Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (ABŞ), Kanada və Meksikada təşkil edilmiş futbol üzrə sayca 23-cü dünya çempionatı (DÇ-2026) davam edir.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Ekvador və Kurasao yığmaları üz-üzə gəliblər. Kanzas Sitidə (Missuri, ABŞ) keçirilmiş E qrupunun matçında qapılara qol vurulmayıb – 0:0.

Qeyd edək ki, bu, tarixində ilk dəfə mundiala qatılmış Kurasao yığmasının dünya çempionatlarında ilk heç-heçəsidir.

Xatırladaq ki, bu qrupun digər oyununda Almaniya millisi Kot-d’İvuar yığması üzərində əzmkar qələbəyə sevinib – 2:1.

Hazırda Almaniya yığmasının 6 xalı var və bu komanda növbəti mərhələyə vəsiqəni təmin edib. Kot-d’İvuar milli komandasının 3 xalı var. Ekvador və Kurasao yığmaları isə hərəyə 1 xal toplayıblar.

Nagelsmann: “Bu, uğurumuzun açarıdır”

Almaniya millisinin baş məşqçisi Yulian Nagelsmann dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Kot-d’İvuara qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, Kanadanın Toronto şəhərində keçirilmiş görüşdə almanlar əzmkar qələbəyə seviniblər.

Nagelsmann matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Nəticəyə görə çox sevincliyəm. Vacib qalibiyyətə görə futbolçularımı artıq təbrik etdim. Qazandığımız 3 xal çox önəmli idi. Komandamızda yaxşı birlik var. Gördüyümüz kimi, əvəzetmədən oyuna daxil olan futbolçular da komandaya xeyir verə bilirlər. Bu, uğurun açarıdır.

Deniz Undav bu gün iki yüksək səviyyəli qol vurdu. O, anadangəlmə hücumçudur. Hər iki qolu düşünmədən vurdu. O, hara və necə zərbə endirməyi çox yaxşı bilir”.

Almaniyalı mütəxəssis “Ştutqart”ın hücumçusunun qrup mərhələsinin son turunda Ekvadora qarşı matça start heyətində başlama ehtimalının olduğunu da qeyd edib.

“O, öz rolunu əla yerinə yetirir. İndi yenidən onun əsas heyətdə oynayıb-oynamaması ilə bağlı müzakirələr başlayacaq. Amma belə də demək olar: qoy, öz yolu ilə davam etsin”, – deyə baş məşqçi vurğulayıb.

Nagelsmann həmçinin müdafiəçi Niko Şlotterbekin zədəsindən narahatlığını ifadə edib:

“Onun vəziyyəti yaxşı görünmür. Sabah MRT müayinəsindən keçəcək və bundan sonra hər şey aydın olacaq”.

Kot-d’İvuar millisinin baş məşqçisi Emers Fae də komandasının çıxışını dəyərləndirib:

“Bu, qrupda birinci yer uğrunda yüksək səviyyəli qarşılaşma idi. Biz 1:0 hesabı ilə öndə idik və ikinci hissənin əvvəlində üstünlüyə sahib idik. Təəssüf ki, ikinci qolu vura bilmədik. Yaxşı oyun keçirdik, amma bəzi detallar həlledici oldu. Bizə bir qədər təcrübə çatmır. Böyük komandalara qarşı oynayanda buraxılan qoldan heç vaxt sığortalanmırsınız.

Oyunçularımla qürur duyuram. Təəssüf ki, bir neçə real qol vəziyyətini boşa verdik. Lakin Almaniya millisi böyük təcrübəyə malikdir. Oyunun gedişində taktiki cəhətdən müəyyən dəyişikliklər etdilər və üstünlüyü ələ keçirdilər”.

Emers Fae rəqibdən daha ədalətli oyun gözlədiyini də bildirib. O, Almaniyanı qələbə münasibətilə təbrik etsə də, narazılığını gizlətməyib:

“Almaniyanı qələbə münasibətilə təbrik edirəm. Amma mən belə böyük bir ölkədən daha ədalətli oyun gözləyirdim.

World Cup 2026: Belgium vs Iran – Lukaku, De Bruyne & Saelemaekers all start

Belgium vs Iran takes place in Los Angeles this afternoon, as Group G’s stalemate pushes into the second round of World Cup fixtures.

Belgium drew their opener 1-1 with Egypt, whilst Iran were held to a 2-2 draw by New Zealand. With it all to play for, both sides will be eager to secure a good result, but the pressure rests more on the European side who were expected to be able to top their group.

Napoli’s Kevin De Bruyne once again stars in the heart of the Belgium attack, with Atalanta’s De Ketelaere moving to the bench after starting the opener.

Napoli forward Romelu Lukaku starts tonight after his vital involvement in his side’s goal against Egypt. Milan’s Alexis Saelemaekers also starts tonight for the Belgians.

Meanwhile, former Inter forward Mehdi Taremi leads the line for Iran.

Juventus forward Conceicao rejects super-sub label and hails father Sergio as ‘main advisor’

Francisco Conceicao has spoken warmly about his father Sergio and offered a respectful nod to Fabio Cannavaro ahead of Portugal’s second World Cup group game against Uzbekistan, as the Juventus winger prepares to face the Italian legend who was his father’s former international teammate.

Speaking at a press conference in Palm Beach, with quotes via the Corriere dello Sport, Conceicao was asked about Cannavaro, now coaching Uzbekistan, and the family connection to his father’s former colleague.

“We have not spoken about Cannavaro, but I know he was a great player, a legend,” he said. “I know Italian coaches well and I know their strategy will be to delay our goal for as long as possible. We know what difficulties await us.”

Conceicao dismisses super-sub label as father Sergio named his biggest footballing influence

The winger also pushed back on the perception that he is purely a substitute option at international level.

“I would like to be known simply as Francisco Conceicao,” he said. “If one is talking about a player who only comes on in the last 10 or 15 minutes, that is not quite right. I play at Juventus in Serie A and I have been a regular starter for my club.”

On making history as the first Portuguese father-son pair to both play at a World Cup, Conceicao was reflective.

“My father told me that a small mistake can compromise everything, that is precisely what we want to avoid,” he said. “My father is my main advisor. There is no one better to talk to about football. He helps me a great deal both in football and in personal life.”

Roma star Mancini on Italy World Cup pain: ‘I cannot watch the matches, it hurts too much’

Gianluca Mancini has admitted he cannot bring himself to watch the 2026 World Cup, describing Italy’s third consecutive absence from the tournament as a pain that remains too raw to confront, even as a spectator.

Speaking to Sky Sport, via TuttoMercatoWeb, the Roma centre-back was candid about how deeply the qualification failure has affected him.

Mancini was on the pitch in Zenica during one of the key moments of the play-off defeat to Bosnia, just before Alessandro Bastoni’s red card that effectively ended Italy’s hopes.

“I can speak as a player who did not achieve World Cup qualification,” Mancini said.

“It is a pain, it hurts. I am not watching the matches, I cannot. I watch the highlights, but not the full games. It hurts not to be there.”

Mancini looks forward to Champions League with Roma after Italy disappointment

On the broader issue of Italy’s repeated failures, Mancini did not look for easy excuses.

“If we have not qualified three times, it is not just a problem of young players, youth sectors and coaches,” he said. “It is bigger than that. We hope to resolve it in the coming years.”

Despite the disappointment, Mancini was notably upbeat about Roma’s Champions League return.

“After the match in Verona, embracing Cristante, I thought about it,” he said. “I imagined the stadiums, a little tune I have never heard in my career. It is beautiful even just to imagine it, I cannot wait to play in the competition.”

Spain forward slams media coverage of Lamine Yamal

Spain forward Borja Iglesias has criticised the coverage of Barcelona star Lamine Yamal, who remains the centre of attention at the Spain camp in Chattanooga in the United States. His fitness has been a matter of national concern over the past two months, since he suffered a hamstring injury in April.

The 18-year-old superstar spent seven weeks recovering from his hamstring tear suffered in April with Barcelona. In Spain’s first match, he was only deemed fit enough to play the final 20 minutes against Cape Verde, but the expectation is that he will start against Saudi Arabia in their second group match.

Borja Iglesias critical of Spain coverage of Lamine Yamal

On Saturday, Spain teammate Borja Iglesias was asked about how fit Lamine Yamal looked to him.

“He’s really good. I also ask how Lamine is when he doesn’t look good. Obviously, Lamine is very good, but I would also like you to ask me about Lamine on days like when we play against Egypt in Barcelona, ​​when things happen off the pitch,” he told Cadena SER.

Lamine Yamal Condemns Anti-Muslim Chant at Spain vs. Egypt Match: “Religion  Is Not a Joke”

Iglesias is referring to the racist chants that occurred in March during Spain’s friendly with Egypt. ‘Whoever doesn’t jump is a Muslim’ was sung on multiple occasions by the Spanish fans, with Lamine Yamal on the pitch, who is himself a Muslim. The Barcelona star later emitted a statement condemning the racist behaviour of the fans, and while it was roundly condemned by media, Iglesias is referencing a lack of concern for their own star at the time.

Iglesias has been a strong voice for social change in Spain, speaking up against racism, sexism and homophobia in recent years, but he made the headlines this week due to a mix-up. Spain players were given time off this week, and after Iglesias left the complex, he was not recognised by security when trying to get back in. He had to explain who he was to the staff there in order to do so.

Argentine reporter resigns after report on health of Lionel Messi’s father

Although the World Cup is an emotional event for all involved, it did somewhat surprise that both Lionel Messi and Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni were in tears following their 3-0 win over Algeria. The veteran forward scored an historic hat-trick, but there was swift speculation over the motives for those tears.

Shortly after the 3-0 win over Algeria it was reported that the Messi family were dealing with an illness in the family, and that it could well be related to his father, Jorge Messi. There were even some reports in Argentina that he had passed away.

That was swiftly denied by none other than Messi himself. The family released a statement confirming that Jorge Messi was ‘going through a health situation’, but that he was receiving treatment and progressing well. They expressed consternation at the lack of respect for their privacy, and noted that only the family had access to the real information on the situation, and that any other reporting was simply untrue.

The blowback in Argentina has been significant, and has cost at least one reporter their job. Florencia Pena was the person who reported that Messi Snr. had passed away, and has since resigned. She announced the news live on Luzu TV, and put out the following statement on social media.

“I apologise to the Messi family for the awful moment I imagine they are going through. I am deeply ashamed to have been the vehicle for this pain. I must clarify that this false information was provided to me during the live broadcast as verified by the production team of the show, and I trusted it.”

“Even so, I take responsibility for being part of the mistake, and that’s why I decided to step aside and end my participation in Luzu. I apologise again from the heart; I was wrong.”

Pido perdón a la familia Messi por el momento espantoso que imagino que están viviendo. Estoy muy avergonzada de haber sido el vehículo para este dolor.

Tengo que aclarar que esta falsa información me fue brindada en medio del vivo como chequeada por cucaracha por la producción…

Curacao veteran sets World Cup record after heroic performance

There has been a lively debate over the format of the 2026 World Cup, which increased the number of teams by 50%, from 32 to 48 teams, with a number of nations making it to the tournament for the first time. There have been no shortage of stories coming out of the United States, Canada and Mexico though.

That began with Cape Verde securing an impressive 0-0 draw with Spain in their opening game, earning a point against one of the tournament favourites, while Qatar rescued their first ever World Cup point in stoppage time against Switzerland. On Saturday night, Curacao secured their first ever result, keeping Ecuador at bay in a 0-0 draw, with one standout hero.

After 40-year-old Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha made the headlines against Spain, against Ecuador it was 37-year-old Eloy Room. The veteran shot-stopper made a total of 15 saves in Kansas City, setting a World Cup record for the most in a 90-minute match say Opta, since records began in 1966.

As explained by Marca, there has been one previous instance of more saves being made, when Tim Howard made 16 stops for the United States against Belgium in 2014. Yet that game included extra time, a match in which the USA were eliminated in a 2-1 defeat in the Round of 16.

Curacao’s first World Cup

It is a first World Cup for Curacao, who qualified from the Concacaf region under former Rangers and Netherlands manager Dick Advocaat. They topped their group with Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago and Bermuda. Curacao is a group of islands belonging to the Dutch crown in the Carribbean coast, just north of Latin America. They have a population of just 98,000, but have a large Dutch diaspora, from which many of their players come from.

Room himself qualifies to play for Curacao due to his father, having spent much of his career in the Netherlands, where he grew up. Room now plays for Miami FC, but in the past has featured for PSV Eindhoven and Vitesse Arnhem.

Jude Bellingham called former manager in bid to regain England spot under Thomas Tuchel

England started off the World Cup in fine fashion this week, blasting past Croatia with a convincing 4-2 win in their opening game. On the scoresheet was Jude Bellingham, who nudged England ahead early in the second half following an excellent move from deep, with a finish to match.

While it seemed unlikely that Bellingham would be left out of the England squad entirely, there has been plenty of debate over his spot in England’s starting XI over the past few months. The form of Morgan Rogers, combined with the impression that Thomas Tuchel was not a major fan of the Real Madrid star, have left a question mark over his importance. Last year, the German manager apologised publicly after calling Bellingham ‘disgusting’.

Bellingham, it seems, was conscious that he was not in Tuchel’s good books last year, and decided to be proactive about it. Diario AS have revealed that Bellingham called former Real Madrid boss and current Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti to get his advice on the matter. Bellingham was keen to hear what Ancelotti had to say, due to his experience in the game, and his relationship with Thomas Tuchel. Whatever Ancelotti told him, it appears to have paid dividends.

Bellingham’s best form came under Ancelotti

Ancelotti was the manager behind his positional shift at Real Madrid, deciding to use him off the forward line rather than as a typical central midfielder, where he was playing for Borussia Dortmund. Dealing with a shoulder injury and a dysfunctional team around him, Bellingham has struggled to regain his form, but against Croatia, showed flashes of the player that scored 23 goals and gave 12 assists in his first season.

Undav injury-time goal sees Germany beat Ivory Coast to top World Cup group

Deniz Undav scored two goals off the bench as Germany pulled off a thrilling comeback to beat Ivory Coast 2-1 in their ⁠World Cup Group E match, securing their place in the knockout stage for the first time since they won the title in 2014.

After having two goals disallowed in the first half on Saturday, Germany did not lose ⁠focus and used intricate passing to find their way, while the West Africans produced their dynamic brand of attacking football in a wild Group E clash.

Undav levelled the score with a controlled, volleyed finish in the 68th minute and struck again when he received a pass on the turn, before swivelling and firing home a ball that Yahia ‌Fofana had no chance at stopping.

The versatile striker now has nine goals in his last eight matches.

Simon Adingra had a late chance for Ivory Coast, but he failed to get a shot off in the area before Germany charged back down the field and Fofana blocked a low shot from Nathaniel Brown.

Ivory Coast had opened the scoring in the first half when Franck Kessie slotted home a rebound off a shot by Amad Diallo on a play created when Yan Diomande charged down the left side and sent in ⁠a cross.

With more than 100,000 people of German ancestry living in Toronto, Julian Nagelsmann’s ⁠men enjoyed plenty of support but were a frustrated group at the interval with nothing to show for their eight attempts on goal.

Germany looked to have opened the scoring when midfielder Aleksandar Pavlovic rose to meet a short corner in the 25th minute but was ⁠deemed to have fouled Fofana in the process.

The ruling left Pavlovic with his hands atop his head in disbelief while Fofana received some attention after the collision, and ⁠the partisan German crowd made their disdain for the referee’s decision ⁠known.

Shortly after, it was Ivory Coast who finally broke through with Kessie’s goal. The West Africans have scored in their last seven matches at the tournament – the longest such sequence on the global stage in their history.

Germany once again put the ball in the back of the ‌net, but their celebrations were cut short as the referee determined that Jamal Musiala had fouled Odilon Kossounou in the buildup.

Germany top Group E with six points and are through to the last 32, while Ivory Coast remain ‌on three after two matches. Ecuador and Curacao meet in Kansas City later on Saturday.

Germany will close out the group stage against Ecuador on Thursday in New Jersey, while Ivory Coast face Curacao in Philadelphia.

Ronald Kuman: “Hər oyunda qalib gəlmək istəyirik”

Niderland millisinin baş məşqçisi Ronald Kuman dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində İsveç üzərində qazanılan 5:1 hesablı qələbəni şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, təcrübəli mütəxəssis matçdan sonra bunları söyləyib:

“İlk qolda istəyə biləcəyiniz hər şey var idi. Biz bilirik ki, Brayan Brobbi bunu çox yaxşı bacarır. Hər şey Bart Verbrüggenin topu uğurla dəf etməsi ilə başladı. Daha sonra sürətli əks-hücum təşkil olundu və Brayan yenidən qapı qarşısında peyda oldu. Qapıçının da köməyi ilə bundan daha mükəmməl qol vurmaq çətindir”, – deyə Ronald Kuman Brayan Brobbinin oyunun gedişini necə dəyişdirdiyini qeyd edib.

Narıncılar” üçün bu qələbənin nə dərəcədə vacib olduğu barədə suala Kuman qəti cavab verib:

“Biz hər oyunda qalib gəlmək istəyirik. Bundan əlavə, turnirdə ilk qələbəmizi qazanmaq istəyirdik və bu, komandaya müəyyən rahatlıq verdi”.

Yaponiya ilə oyunda etdiyi əvəzləmələrə görə ünvanına səslənən tənqidlərə Kuman zarafatla münasibət bildirib:

“Bəlkə də, bu dəfə əvəzləmələr əvvəlki matçdakından daha yaxşı alındı”.

Daha sonra o, ciddi şəkildə əlavə edib:

“Bu oyunda təzyiq daha çox idi, çünki qalib gəlməli olduğumuzu bilirdik. Amma heç bir gərginlik hiss etmirdim. İlk oyundan sonra müəyyən işlər gördük. İndi isə hər şeyin qaydasında olduğunu görürsünüz”.

İsveç millisinin baş məşqçisi Qrem Potter isə ağır məğlubiyyətə belə şərh verib:

“Bəzən belə təcrübələr yaşamaq lazımdır. Oyunun bu cür keçəcəyini düşünmürdüm, amma bundan nəticə çıxarmalıyıq. Biz güclü komandaya qarşı oynayırdıq. Onlar hücum edir və cinahlarda bizi üstələyirdilər. İlk qolu uzun ötürmədən sonra buraxdıq və həmin epizodda kifayət qədər yaxşı müdafiə oluna bilmədik”.

DÇ-2026: Niderland İsveçi 5 qolla yendi

Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (ABŞ), Kanada və Meksikada təşkil edilmiş futbol üzrə sayca 23-cü dünya çempionatı (DÇ-2026) davam edir.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Niderland və İsveç yığmaları üz-üzə gəliblər. Hyustonda (Texas, ABŞ) keçirilmiş F qrupunun matçında Niderland yığması darmadağına sevinib.

Niderland millisinin heyətində Brayan Brobbi və Kodi Qakpo dubla imza atıblar. Daha bir qolu isə Krisensio Sammervill 89-cu dəqiqədə rəqib qapısından keçirib. İsveç yığmasının yeganə qolunu 59-cu dəqiqədə Antoni Elanqa vurub.

Beləliklə Niderland 4 xalla ilk pilləyə yüksəlib. İsveç yığması 3 xalla ikincidir.

Xatırladaq ki, bu qrupun digər qarşılaşmasında düz bir saat sonra Almaniya millisi Kot-d’İvuar yığmasını sınağa çəkəcək.

Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani welcomes second child with wife Mamiko Tanaka

MLB team Los Angeles Dodgers‘ superstar Shohei Ohtani and his wife, Mamiko Tanaka, have announced the birth of their second child.

The couple shared the news Saturday through a joint statement on Instagram. Ohtani was recently placed on the Dodgers’ paternity list and stepped away from the team to be with his family.

“We are again overjoyed to experience this wonderful day in our lives together,” Ohtani and Tanaka wrote. “Thank you for being born safely. We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has supported us throughout this journey.”

The couple did not reveal the baby’s name, gender, or exact birth date.

This marks the second child for Ohtani and Tanaka, who welcomed a daughter in April 2025. The family has largely kept personal milestones private since Ohtani announced their marriage in early 2024.

The announcement included a photo of the newborn’s feet wrapped in a blue blanket. Their dog, Decoy, also appeared in the family photo.

The timing comes during another remarkable season for Ohtani.

Shohei Ohtani is once again dominating this MLB season

The 31-year-old star continues to dominate as both a hitter and pitcher for the Dodgers.

Entering the weekend, Ohtani owns a .296 batting average with 15 home runs and 42 RBIs. On the mound, he has posted a 7-2 record with a 1.47 ERA and 78 strikeouts in 73.2 innings.

Ohtani remains one of the leading candidates for both the National League MVP and Cy Young Award. He has already won three consecutive MVP awards, including the last two in the National League.

The Dodgers have not missed a beat despite Ohtani’s brief absence. Los Angeles entered the weekend with MLB’s best record at 49-27 and a commanding lead in the National League West.

Ohtani is expected to rejoin the club before the end of the weekend. For now, however, baseball has taken a back seat as one of the sport’s biggest stars celebrates a major family milestone.

World Cup 2026: Netherlands vs Sweden – Malen, Dumfries, Hien & Karlstrom start

The Netherlands vs Sweden is the first World Cup match of the day, as Group F gets underway in the second round of fixtures; the Swedes topping the group so far after their emphatic 5-1 victory over Tunisia in their opener.

The Dutch, meanwhile, were held to a thrilling 2-2 draw with Japan that came alive in the second half, but leaves them needing to win today if they have any hope of topping the group.

Roma striker Donyell Malen starts up front once again for Ronald Koeman’s team, whilst outgoing Inter right-back Denzel Dumfries features in defence.

Meanwhile, Atalanta’s Isak Hien and Udinese’s Jesper Karlstrom both start once again for Sweden.

On the bench, Atalanta’s Marten de Roon, Juventus man Teun Koopmeiners and Napoli-owned forward Noa Lang all sit for the Netherlands.

Sweden: Nordfeldt; Lindelof, Hien, Lagerbielke; Gudmundsson, Ayari, Karlstrom, Bernhardsson; Nygren; Isak, Gyokeres

Dumfries reveals what Netherlands must learn from Inter: ‘A little fire is important’

Denzel Dumfries has offered a candid insight into the contrasting dynamics of the Inter dressing room and the Netherlands national team setup, suggesting Koeman’s side need to develop the same edge and directness that characterises life at the Nerazzurri.

Speaking to Voetbal International ahead of the Netherlands’ World Cup campaign, the outgoing Inter right-back, whose move to Real Madrid is imminent, was frank about what he believes his country’s squad is currently lacking.

“We need to demand more from each other,” he said, with quotes via FCInter1908.

“This is the lesson we learned from the last European Championship, as a group we can tell each other the truth more often and more openly. And I will do that, because I am someone who takes responsibility in that sense. A little fire in the team is important.”

Dumfries calls for Netherlands to replicate Inter directness after Euro disappointment

The comparison with Inter was illuminating.

“There we can clash hard with each other, but there are so many strong personalities and firm opinions that you are practically forced to assert yourself,” Dumfries said.

“In the Dutch national team we have a very pleasant group, with a lot of spontaneity and positivity, but every now and then we could shake each other up a little more. Always with the intention of improving.”

On a more positive note, Dumfries acknowledged that communication within the Netherlands squad is developing.

“More and more players are aware that the first ball must be played well and to the right foot,” he said. “That is a positive development.”

Manuel Noyer DÇ-2026-dan sonra Almaniya millisindən gedəcək

Almaniya yığmasının qapıçısı Manuel Noyer dünya çempionatından (DÇ-2026) sonra milli komandadakı karyerasını başa vuracağını açıqlayıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, 40 yaşlı qolkiperin sözlərini jurnalist Fabrisio Romano özünün X sosial şəbəkəsindəki səhifəsində paylaşıb.

AÇ-2024-dən sonra Almaniya millisinə dəvət almayan Noyer Şimali Amerikada keçirilən dünya çempionatında iştirak etmək üçün yenidən yığmaya qayıtmışdı.

“Bu, Almaniya millisində mənim son turnirim olacaq. İki ildən sonra keçiriləcək Avropa çempionatında iştirak etməyi planlaşdırmıram.

Mən hər oyunu səbirsizliklə gözləmək və vida, yaxud son matç haqqında düşünməmək istəyirəm”, – deyə Noyer bildirib.

Qeyd edək ki, Manuel Noyer 2011-ci ildən “Bayern”də çıxış edir. Təcrübəli qolkiper Münhen təmsilçisi ilə 13 dəfə Almaniya çempionu, 7 dəfə ölkə Super Kubokunun, 6 dəfə Almaniya Kubokunun qalibi olub. O, həmçinin iki dəfə UEFA Çempionlar Liqasının, UEFA Super Kubokunun və Klublararası Dünya Çempionatının qalibi adını qazanıb.

Noyer Almaniya millisinin heyətində 2014-cü ildə dünya çempionu olub, 2010-cu il mundialında isə bürünc medal qazanıb.

Bundan əvvəl təcrübəli qolkiper dünya çempionatlarının beşində iştirak edən ikinci qapıçı olmuş, həmçinin mundial tarixində qapıçılar arasında keçirilən oyunların sayına görə rekordu təkrarlamışdı.

Ancelotti confirms big Neymar update for Scotland clash and more Brazil changes

Carlo Ancelotti says Neymar ‘will be available’ against Scotland and confirms more Brazil changes for their final World Cup group stage game.

Brazil beat Haiti 3-0 on Friday night and are now preparing for their final group stage game against Scotland on Wednesday, June 24, with kick-off at 11 pm BST.

Ancelotti confirms Neymar’s return vs. Scotland

Italian tactician Ancelotti discussed his potential moves for the next Brazil match during a press conference last night: “I don’t want to give a definitive identity; I might change something in the next match,” he said via Gazzetta.

“We want to beat Scotland to finish top of the group; that would be important. We will prepare for it, but it won’t be easy. Scotland have very defined characteristics; they caused Morocco problems and can do the same to us. But we must remain calm, composed, and focused on our game. The psychologist is working with us and is helping us.”

Neymar has missed the opening two games due to injury, but will make his return in the next game: “He’s fine; he’ll train alone for a day and then return to the squad. He’ll be available for Scotland,” confirmed Ancelotti.

Barcelona winger Raphinha, on the other hand, was forced to come off with an injury: “We are waiting for the tests to understand what he has,” Ancelotti said.

Lastly, the Italian tactician gave his verdict on the controversial hydration breaks at the World Cup, already criticised by many, including Inter defender Manuel Akanji: “I like them; with the intense heat, players can recover, and we coaches can adjust things,” Ancelotti concluded.

Türkiyə millisinin FİASKOSU

Data analizlər göstərir ki, faktiki Türkiyə millisi tarixinin ən güclü heyətidir. Lakin 2000-lərdəki emosional tonus üzərindən müsbət saldo cızan milli ilə son illərdəki yığmanın əsas fərqi fərdiçilikdir.

Türkiyə millisinin baş məşqçisi Vinçenso Montella taktiki təfəkkürü və oyun fəlsəfəsi ilə bu ölkənin futbol şüuruna uyğun deyil.

“Ay-ulduzlar” taktiki sxemlərə “tabe olan” futbol ənənəsinə sahib deyil. Burada əsas amil komandanın liderinin olması və baş məşqçi ilə komanda arasında kommunikasiyanın məhz bu xətlə qurulması faydalı iş əmsalını artıra bilər.

İndi lider kimdir? Nə baş məşqçi Montella, nə ən populyar oyunçu Arda, nə Seria A-da baş çıxaran Kenan Yıldız, Çalhanoğlu və s.

Əvvəllər milli komanda üçün döyüşən oyunçulardan ibarət yığma idisə, indiki milli özünü klub karyerası üçün qoruyan fərdlərdən ibarətdir. Təbii ki, bu hamısına aid deyil, amma Türkiyə yığmasını ənənəvi ruhunu pozan “virus” öz işini görür – 10+ il uğursuzluq.

Görünür, yeni ideoloji mühit yaradılmalı, klublarında ulduz olan eqoların əksərini millidən kənarlaşdırmalı, “qan dəyişikliyinə” gedilməli, “vatan-millet-sakarya” ruhu bərpa edilməlidir.

Praqmatizm Türkiyə futbolu üçün deyil, yaramır…

Akanji ‘not a big fan’ of hydration breaks, but SoFi Stadium ‘the best I’ve played in’

Inter and Switzerland defender Manuel Akanji admits he’s ‘not a big fan’ of hydration breaks at the World Cup, but says the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles is the best he’s ever played in.

Inter defender Akanji, a former Manchester City star, gave an interview to Gazzetta dello Sport while on international duty with the Switzerland national team at the 2026 World Cup.

Akanji’s side secured one win and one draw in the opening two group stage games.

Akanji opens up about Inter, Chivu, hydration breaks and more

The Swiss defender has just completed his first season at Inter, winning the domestic double at San Siro, lifting the Scudetto and Coppa Italia.

“Inter is a great school, a university that helps you grow in various aspects. I am very grateful to those who wanted me here, and I am happy to stay and win more with this coach,” he said.

Safe to say Akanji has enjoyed working with Cristian Chivu in 2025-26.

“I hadn’t often experienced playing in a back three at club level; it had only happened with the national team. But at Inter, I had to get to know the position much better and work with new teammates,” he said.

“Now I think differently in various game situations. If we were to switch to a back five in the future, I would know exactly what to do.

“Chivu understands players very well because he himself was a top-level footballer and experienced the same situations we are going through now,” Akanji continued.

“Furthermore, he has won many trophies with Inter and knows exactly what the club needs. He is also a very communicative and empathetic coach: he often talks to us players and, importantly, he is willing to listen to us. This is precisely what creates an excellent relationship with all of us.”

Italy were supposed in the same group as Switzerland at the World Cup, but the Azzurri were knocked out by Bosnia and Herzegovina in the play-off final.

Bosnia lost 4-1 to Switzerland just a few days ago, in a match played at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

“Well, it’s truly fantastic. I told my friends that if we’re talking about the overall experience, this is the best stadium I’ve ever played in,” Akanji said.

“I’ve seen many, but SoFi is incredible. When you enter and look at everything around you, you are impressed and understand why it cost so much. I’m even an NFL enthusiast, but I’m neither a Rams nor a Chargers fan, the teams that play here.

“I support the Atlanta Falcons, and I’ve already been to the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Georgia, which is very nice, but it doesn’t reach these levels. However, when it comes to football alone, playing at San Siro is simply unparalleled; it remains an incredible feeling.”

Regarding the World Cup, Akanji was asked for his thoughts on the controversial hydration breaks, which seem aimed more at boosting sponsorship revenue than at ensuring players’ health.

“No, I’m not a big fan. I understand the organisational and commercial reasons; I understand that advertising and other activities can be inserted during those breaks,” Akanji said.

“But as a footballer, I think they take away from the match’s rhythm. If a team is struggling, a break can help them by allowing tactical adjustments, and conversely, it can interrupt a favourable moment.”

Analysis: Spain approach turning point after flummoxing open to World Cup

“Nothing has given us any doubts. Whatever is said or has been left unsaid… this is the path we must follow,” shrugged a husky Luis de la Fuente after his Spain side had thumped the ball against the Cape Verdean wall 23 times, and seen it come back every time. The Spanish media, known for histrionics whenever unnecessary, were strangely sanguine after their 0-0 draw, but perhaps de la Fuente’s words were the most unsettling part of disappointing opening to a World Cup.

This same side has installed a sincere belief in Spain that while other sides may have similar, or perhaps even a touch more quality, this World Cup is well within reach. Cape Verde defended impressively, committing a single foul, a mark of militant discipline from a country planting a flag on the world stage. That was a part of the dowdy, laboured look about Spain’s offensive efforts. De la Fuente played off the result as a lack of finishing, accusing precision and freshness as the main culprits sabotaging Spain’s path to victory. Just as Spain looked a little like the sides that had been eliminated in 2018 by Russia and in 2022 by Morocco, de la Fuente sounded a little bit like Luis Enrique after the match.

“We have to insist on the same idea,” he repeated. If you’re wondering why a seemingly innocuous statement like that might furrow your brow, it’s because de la Fuente has never been one for being boxed in by the idea. If Luis Enrique or even supply coach Fernando Hierro were wedded to a plan and a system, de la Fuente was unrestricted, flexible as a virtue.

Naturally his Spain side have always had an idea, a plan, but at Euro 2024, he was praised for simplifying the game. If La Roja were struggling to dominate the box, on would come Joselu Mato. Should they have space to run into, Ferran Torres was let off the leash. Mikel Merino and Mikel Oyarzabal are not themselves pacy, but they, like de la Fuente himself, were raised on Basque football, the most direct and aggressive form of the game in Spain. The same XI would start, and start fast, looking to set Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams into space, but as the game approached its climax, whatever risks the opposition decided to take, de la Fuente would signal for the corresponding player that could exploit them.

Curiously, there are only four changes from de la Fuente’s starting side against Cape Verde to the Morocco elimination four years ago. It looks a little different, but there was Ferran Torres on the right, Pedri as the most advanced midfielder, and Dani Olmo playing as a makeshift left-winger. The use of Gavi on the left against Cape Verde was held up as the most egregious betrayal of what de la Fuente’s Spain had become known for. “The idea with Gavi was for him to drop inside to create depth. We intended for Cucurella to join the attack, and he did,” de la Fuente defended, correctly.

There was something a little unconvincing about Spain catering their starting XI to unleash left-back Marc Cucurella, while top scorer in qualifying Mikel Oyarzabal disappeared from the game. Cucurella’s runs from deep did create Spain’s best chances, but he was about the only one who did attempt to breach the Cape Verde backline. The fitness of Victor Munoz, Nico Williams and Lamine Yamal somewhat tied his hands, but de la Fuente still had enough freedom to beckon over Yeremy Pino, the most mobile of his wide players.

On Thursday, Borja Iglesias was denied entry into Spain’s accommodation, after security failed to recognise the 6’2 (187cm) target man, and de la Fuente seemed to forget about him three days earlier too. As Lamine Yamal jinked inside, two, three times in the closing minutes, he was forced to lash the ball towards the run of Olmo – a scenario Cape Verde manager Bubista was fully onboard with.

Not until the 71st minute did de la Fuente challenge the Cape Verde defence with something different, and while Lamine Yamal helps any side to look more dynamic, it was still difficult to digest that this Spain side were so hesitant on the ball, so slow to find a pass. More promising for de la Fuente is that all week Spain’s players have sung from the same hymn sheet, of a higher tempo on the ball, of calm and cool heads.

Last year, assistant manager Pablo Amo left the Spain setup for a job in Qatar. No body of work can ever be divided between a manager and their assistant, but when his departure was announced, a number of outlets covering Spain credited him with a significant contribution to their successful tactical work to that point. In Spain’s documentary on their path to Euro 2024 victory, Amo is seen in a classroom explaining the plan to press Germany in the quarter-final. Perhaps the Spain manager can reprimand the editor, but de la Fuente looked just as flummoxed as the rest of us did with their performance on Monday. Should they lack the dynamism that has characterised de la Fuente’s Spain, without fresh solutions to unpick what will no doubt be a similar Saudi Arabia approach, will open Pandora’s box of alarm bells.

What the US-Iran peace deal means for the ‘Team Melli’ World Cup campaign

The Iranian football team began their World Cup campaign under the shadow of a war with the United States. They soon became collateral damage in the conflict with strict conditions on their visas to the US and other difficulties. Now, as a peace deal emerges between the US and Iran, experts have asked what this could mean for Team Melli – as the Iranian squad is known – in the tournament.

Although World Cup hosts have been at war with other nations at the time of tournaments, and Argentina was also in the midst of the Dirty War during the 1978 tournament, there has not been a single case of an organiser being embroiled in a conflict with another participant, as is the case with the US and Iran.

The US and Israel launched a war on Iran in February 28. Although a temporary ceasefire suspended much of the most intense fighting on April 8 and a peace agreement was signed this week, tensions between the two countries remain high and have spilled over into the supposedly apolitical World Cup.

This bubble burst in March when US President Donald Trump said on Truth Social that the Iran squad was welcome to the US but he “[did not] believe it ⁠is appropriate that they be there, for their own life and safety”.

Iran’s football team has been held hostage to the US’s immigration whims right up till the start of the tournament. Players were granted visas for the US — where they play all their group stage matches — just 10 days before their opening match against New Zealand in Los Angeles – and have had to leave the country for their base camp in Mexico after finishing their games. Iranian-American political analyst and journalist Negar Mortazavi has described this as “extra animosity” towards Team Melli.

Whether the team would even be allowed into the country remained unknown as FIFA President Gianni Infantino appeared unable to secure any guarantees from Trump about the Iranian team’s visa situation.

Out of a rightful abundance of caution, manager Amir Ghalenoei’s side switched the team’s base camp from Arizona, US, to Tijuana, Mexico, at the last minute. The US doubled down on Tuesday and said the team had to depart within hours of the full-time whistle being blown. They had arrived just one day prior to kickoff.

As a hurried memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran began to materialise on Wednesday night, questions arose on its ramifications for Team Melli.

Can the peace deal really impact Iran’s football team in the US?

While neither side has released a physical copy of the memorandum of understanding, nor are World Cup-specific arrangements expected to be written in, experts hope that the agreement translates to more amicable treatment for the Iranian football team in the US.

“With a peace deal, things can change,” Mortazavi said in an interview with Al Jazeera.

“We can see President Trump’s rhetoric on Iran has dramatically changed over the past few days, and he’s suddenly talking about better relationships with Iran from a political and economic standpoint, and that can certainly extend to sports,” she continued.

The shift from threats to diplomacy sprouted last week when Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform that “our relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous Administrations have had”. “Hopefully, this process will all work out quickly, easily, and smoothly.”

Mortazavi said that despite the World Cup’s stance on steering clear from politics, the US’s treatment of Iran’s team was a testament to how politics can impact the sport.

“I expect a US peace deal to open the door for better relations and hopefully have a positive impact on the situation of the team and remove some of the hurdles if the US can extend some goodwill gestures to the team,” she said.

A slight thawing of relations ahead of the peace deal announcement came as the US on Tuesday quickly reissued a multiple-entry visa for Iran winger Mehdi Torabi after his visa expired following the game with New Zealand.

However, political scholar Niki Akhavan cautioned that Trump might renege on the deal due to the immense pressure he faces from Republican anti-Iran hardliners, pro-Israel groups and Democrats for giving Iran “too much” in the peace deal.

“But, in the best-case scenario, issuing a multiple-entry visa for Torabi may be a good indication of some kind of flexibility on the US’s part to actually adhere to its responsibilities as a host nation,” Akhavan told Al Jazeera.

“The comments Trump has made today on Iran are friendly comments, we might see better treatment of the Iran team, which has been unfairly treated the most. It’s a sign of them softening their unreasonable stance towards Iran.”

Akhavan’s caution stood true as tensions at the World Cup reignited after the solitary goodwill gesture of Torabi’s visa renewal.

Iran announced on Thursday that it would lodge a complaint with FIFA after its football federation claimed its request to enter the US two days before their match against Belgium on Sunday was declined.

“Despite having submitted its preparation schedule for the tournament well in advance, Iran’s national football team has once again encountered restrictions imposed by the organisers, affecting the implementation of its technical staff’s plans,” a spokesperson for the federation said.

Part of the host nation’s responsibilities include each team’s safety, and, Akhavan argues that the US’s decisions regarding Iran’s logistics at the World Cup have been discriminatory and have deliberately attempted to hurt the team.

The logistical barriers were compounded when Iran’s World Cup ticket allotment for fans was withdrawn just before the tournament began. Additionally, several members of the squad’s technical staff were denied entry to the US, even though all football players were allowed.

“You’re actively disadvantaging a team; the whole idea is that everybody is level on the playing field, and the US’s actions thus far have been counter to that,” Akhavan said.

“I can only hope that one impact of this agreement is that they [the US] will adhere to their responsibilities [as host nation] and we’ll see some changes.

“Because this is unfair to these young men; this is their dream and they’re representing their people.”

Akhavan also emphasised that FIFA could have pushed the US to fulfil its responsibilities as a host nation and transcend the war and politics.

“Hopefully, now that there is an agreement, [Infantino] can use that as motivation to make peace part of the agenda of the World Cup. There’s a lot of empty gestures towards peace by Infantino and FIFA with the armbands and the FIFA peace prize,” Akhavan said, referring to Trump being the recipient of FIFA’s inaugural accolade in December.

“Let’s see if they can actually put some of that into material reality in terms of the Iranian team.”

World Cup: Ancelotti’s Brazil bounce back but Montella and Turkey are already eliminated

Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil secured a 3-0 win over Haiti in the second group stage game of the World Cup, but Vincenzo Montella’s Turkey lost 1-0 to Paraguay and faced elimination.

It’s been a night of mixed feelings for Italian coaches at the World Cup, with one, Montella, knocked out after just two rounds.

His Turkey side lost 1-0 to Paraguay despite playing the entire second half a man down. The South Americans took the lead in the second minute through Matias Galarza. Serie A stars Hakan Calhanoglu and Kenan Yildiz played the full 90 minutes but were unable to turn the game around.

World Cup: Montella’s Turkey eliminated

Turkey already lost the opening round 2-0 to Australia, so their second consecutive loss means they are now eliminated.

“It’s truly incredible; we put down two high-level performances, making 65 shots towards the goal without being able to score. We didn’t concede much, but even that little was capitalised,” Montella said via Gazzetta.

“Sincerely, something like that had never happened to me in 35 years of football. It is clear that, in these two matches, fate was not on our side. However, it cannot be said that the spirit, the soul or the will to fight was lacking. The team gave it their all until the last second. We tried every way, but it didn’t go.

“I feel very sorry for the Turkish people, who had great expectations and great ambitions. I feel sorry for the Federation and the president, who have always been close to us and supported us at all times. And I’m especially sorry for the footballers, because they left everything on the pitch.”

While Turkey have already faced elimination from Group D, Ancelotti’s Brazil secure a comfortable 3-0 win over Haiti, scoring all three goals in the first half.

Matheus Cunha scored the opening two goals, with Vini Jr. netting the third for Brazil, his second at the 2026 World Cup.

“I think that for this game Matheus Cunha’s position was a good one to create problems for the defence. He also filtered passes very well and moved into position really well. He can be an option. I don’t want a clear identity, because in the next game we may change,” Ancelotti said at full-time.

“He came into the World Cup well, in excellent condition. We don’t expect it to be Vinícius’s World Cup; we expect it to be Brazil’s World Cup.

“We moved Vini a little more inside, leaving the wide play more to Douglas Santos, who did very well. Vini is dangerous not only one-on-one, but also when attacking in behind. Attacking in behind through the centre of the pitch is more dangerous — he scored a goal and provided an assist.

“We were much better in the first half, with more effectiveness up front. In the second half we had more control. We had many opportunities; we could have scored more goals. Overall it was a good game.”

In the other Group C game last night, Morocco beat Scotland 1-0, so Brazil and Morocco are now the group leaders with four points, followed by Scotland with three and Haiti with none.

Troy Deeney has named the weakest link in the England team at the World Cup

England may have started their World Cup campaign with an impressive 4-2 win over Croatia, but not everyone is convinced Thomas Tuchel’s side have the full package needed to go all the way.

Former Premier League striker Troy Deeney has raised serious doubts over England’s chances of winning the tournament with Jordan Pickford as first-choice goalkeeper.

DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL CAUGHTOFFSIDE APP FOR ALL THE LATEST & BREAKING UPDATES – STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE! ON APPLE & GOOGLE PLAY

Speaking on CBS Sports, as reported by the Mirror, Deeney suggested Pickford’s style creates too much uncertainty in high-pressure moments.

Pickford has been England’s trusted No.1 for years and has produced big tournament performances before.

However, his critics argue that he can look emotional, reactive and occasionally chaotic, traits that become magnified in knockout football.

Deeney did not hold back with his criticism

On CBS Sports, Deeney was asked if he felt Pickford was too chaotic, replying:

‘To say the least, yeah. I don’t really know the stats and all of that. I’m just saying what my eyes told me.

‘I still think he should have saved the first one [Croatia goal], that’s my opinion. I think when you get a hand to it, it’s got to be a solid hand and keep it out.

‘There’s just that feeling when I watch Jordan…there’s a shot from 50 yards and it trickles to him and he’s screaming at everyone, “Do your job! Don’t let any shots come in!”

‘Every time he parries one, fouls someone, does whatever, he’s like, “Don’t look at me!”

‘We’re trying to win a World Cup. That’s why we’re here. In my opinion, and respectfully Jordan, because you know I like you. We can’t win it with that guy in goal. He doesn’t give you any confidence.’

A debate Tuchel cannot ignore

The comments feel harsh, but they tap into a wider question around England’s tournament mentality.

Pickford has experience, leadership and loyalty from managers, but England are chasing the biggest prize in football. Small details matter.

Tuchel is unlikely to change goalkeeper immediately. But if England concede more soft goals, this debate will only get louder.

What are the rules change for the tie-breaker criteria at the 2026 World Cup?

FIFA is using head-to-head records instead of goal difference as the primary tiebreaker for teams level on points for the first time at a World Cup.

Haiti, Turkiye and Tunisia have been eliminated because they are unable to catch the third-placed teams in their respective groups, as they lost to those teams.

Tie-breaker criteria for World Cup groups

According to FIFA’s rules for the tournament, if two or more teams in the same group are equal on points after the group stage ends, the following criteria, in the order below, will be applied to determine the ranking:

Step one

  • Greatest number of points gained in the group matches.
  • Superior goal difference in the group matches between the teams concerned (head-to-head).
  • Greatest number of goals scored in the group matches between the teams concerned (head-to-head).

If the teams are still tied, the criteria below applies:

Step two

  • Superior goal difference across all group matches.
  • Greatest number of goals scored across all group matches.
  • Highest team conduct score (players and team officials) relating to the number of yellow and red cards obtained.

If the teams somehow still cannot be separated, then the following criteria below applies:

Step three

  • The two or more teams still equal on points shall be ranked according to the most recent published edition of the FIFA world rankings.

The criteria for the eight best‑ranked teams

The eight best teams among those ranked third will be determined as follows:

  • Greatest number of points gained in all group matches.
  • Goal difference resulting from all group matches.
  • Greatest number of goals scored in all group matches.
  • Highest team conduct score (players and team officials) relating to the number of yellow and red cards obtained in all group matches.
  • The two or more teams still equal on points shall be ranked according to the most recent published edition of the FIFA world rankings.

Which teams have reached the World Cup round of 32?

(As of June 23, 02:30 GMT)

⚽️ Mexico (Group A) 

The cohosts were the first to qualify for the knockouts, after taking top spot in Group A with a 1-0 win over South Korea on Thursday, June 18. The Mexicans started their campaign with a 2-0 win over South Africa in a chaotic tournament opener.

⚽️ USA (Group D)

The United States were the second team to punch their ticket to the knockouts, thanks to their 2-0 win over Australia that sent them on top of Group D on Friday, June 19. The USA thumped Paraguay 4-1 to kick off their campaign.

⚽️ Germany (Group E) 

Germany became the third team to enter the last 32 with a 2-1 win over Ivory Coast on Saturday, June 20. The Germans – who failed to get out of the group stage both at Russia 2018 and four years ago in Qatar – started their tournament with a 7-1 thrashing of Curacao.

⚽️ Argentina (Group J)

Argentina sealed their ticket to the knockouts with a 2-0 victory over Austria on Monday, June 22, as Lionel Messi scored twice, becoming the World Cup’s all-time leading scorer with 18 goals. The Argentina captain also bagged his maiden tournament hat-trick in their 3-0 opening game win over Algeria. Reigning champions Argentina are guaranteed the top spot in Group J.

⚽️ France (Group I)

Pre-tournament favourites France secured a place in the round of 32 with a 3-0 win over Iraq later on Monday, as Kylian Mbappe scored a brace. The 2018 world champions beat Senegal 3-1 to kick off their tournament, with Mbappe scoring twice in that game, too.

⚽️ Norway (Group I)

Norway beat Senegal 3-2 in their second game of the tournament, sealing their place in the knockouts. The Norwegians, who are back at the World Cup after 28 years, started their campaign with a 4-1 thrashing of Iraq.

Which teams have been knocked out of the World Cup 2026?

⚽️ Haiti (Group C)

Haiti became the first team to be sent home packing from the World Cup after suffering a 3-0 loss to Brazil on Friday, June 19. Playing in their first tournament since 1974, they also lost 1-0 to Scotland in their first game.

⚽️ Turkiye (Group D)

Turkiye soon followed suit, bowing out of the tournament after a 1-0 defeat to 10-man Paraguay later on Friday. They also suffered a shock 2-0 defeat to Australia in the first group match – their first appearance at the tournament after 24 years.

⚽️ Tunisia (Group F)

Tunisia became the third team to be eliminated after they lost 4-0 to Japan on Saturday, June 20. The defeat came shortly after they suffered a heavy 5-1 defeat to Sweden in the opener. Tunisia were the first African team to win a World Cup match when they beat Mexico in 1978, but they have never progressed beyond the group stages.

Montella: “Belə matçlara adətən 50 oyundan bir rast gəlinir”

Türkiyə millisinin baş məşqçisi Vinçentso Montella dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsi çərçivəsində Paraqvaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində üz-üzə gəlmiş komandaların görüşü Türkiyə millisinin 0:1 hesablı məğlubiyyəti ilə yekunlaşıb.

Montella Türkiyənin mərhələ adlamaq şanslarını itirdiyi görüşdən sonra bunları söyləyib:

“Çox, çox üzgünəm. Xalqımızın böyük gözləntiləri var idi. Bizim özümüzün də böyük gözləntilərimiz vardı. Türkiyə Futbol Federasiyası adından da çox məyusam. Onların nə qədər əziyyət çəkdiyini bilirəm.

Mən artıq 35 ildir peşəkar futbolun içindəyəm. Adətən belə matçlara 50 oyundan bir rast gəlinir. Amma bunun ardıcıl iki oyunda baş verməsi həqiqətən təəccüblüdür.

Son iki oyunda ümumilikdə 65 zərbə vurmuşuq. Hələ topa sahibolma faizindən danışmıram belə. Taleyin bu dəfə bizim tərəfimizdə olmadığını düşünürəm.

Futbolçularıma dedim ki, onlar meydanda hər şeylərini ortaya qoyublar və başlarını dik tutmalıdırlar. Qismətdən artıq yol yoxdur”.

Paraqvay millisinin baş məşqçisi Qustavo Alfaro da oyundan sonra açıqlama verib. O, 1:0 hesabı ilə qalib gəldikləri matç haqqında fikirlərini bölüşüb:

“Bu görüşdə əlimizdən gələni etməli idik. Oyunçular məşqçilik karyeramın ən yaxşı günlərindən birini mənə yaşatdılar. Kimsə sizə “Paraqvay öldü” desə, şübhə edin. Dərhal inanmayın. Ən pis məğlubiyyət özünüzə olan inamı itirməkdir”.

Uğurcan: “Bacarmadıq”

Türkiyə millisi DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin II turunda Paraqvaya uduzub – 0:1.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, ardıcıl ikinci matçında məğlub olan türklərin qrupda qalacağı dəqiqləşib.

Türkiyə yığmasının qapıçısı Uğurcan Çakır məğlubiyyətdən sonra azarkeşlərdən üzr istəyib:

“Hamıdan üzr istəyirik. Xalqımızı məyus etdik. Bizdən gözləntilər böyük idi, amma olmadı. Oyun haqqında danışmağa bir şey yoxdur. Hər kəs gördü. Ölkəmizi qürurlandırmaq istəyirdik, amma bacarmadıq”.

DÇ-2026: Türkiyə yenə uduzdu, qrupda qaldı

Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (ABŞ), Kanada və Meksikada təşkil edilmiş futbol üzrə sayca 23-cü dünya çempionatı (DÇ-2026) davam edir.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Türkiyə və Paraqvay yığmaları üz-üzə gəliblər. Santa Klarada (Kanada) keçirilmiş D qrupunun matçında Paraqvay yığması yeganə qolla qələbə qazanıb. Matias Qalarsa 2-ci dəqiqədə vurduğu qolla Türkiyə millisini məyus edib.

Xatırladaq ki, bu qrupun digər qarşılaşmasında ABŞ millisi Avstraliya yığmasını 2:0 hesabıyla məğlub etmişdi.

Beləliklə, 2 turdan sonra ABŞ yığması 6 xalla qrup lideridir və növbəti mərhələyə vəsiqəni təmin edib. Avstraliya və Paraqvay yığmalarının hərəyə 3 xalı var. Xalsız və sonuncu olan Türkiyə millisinin isə qrupdan çıxa bilməyəcəyi artıq dəqiqdir.

Ançelotti: “İstənilən komandaya qarşı rəqabət apara bilərik”

Braziliya millisinin baş məşqçisi Karlo Ançelotti dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsi çərçivəsində Haitiyə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində qarşılaşmış bu komandaların görüşü Braziliya millisinin 3:0 hesablı qələbəsi ilə yekunlaşıb.

Ançelotti matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:Ə

“Bu, bütöv və keyfiyyətli oyun oldu. Birinci hissədə daha yaxşı çıxış etdik, hücumda daha effektiv idik. İkinci hissədə isə oyuna daha çox nəzarət etdik. Bununla belə, kifayət qədər qol epizodlarımız var idi və daha çox qol vura bilərdik. Bu, yaxşı oyun idi.

Biz Vinisius Junioru mərkəzdə oynatdıq, Duqlas Santos isə cinahda qaldı və Vinisius bu rolda özünü əla tərəfdən göstərdi. Vini təkcə birəbir vəziyyətlərdə təhlükəli deyil. O, yarımmüdafiənin dərinliyindən də hücumlara təhlükə yarada bilir. Mövqelərini dəyişə bilər və digər futbolçular da buna uyğunlaşırlar.

Sağ cinahda isə Rafinya və Rayan Fransisko ilə sabitliyimizi qoruyuruq, çünki istəyirik ki, Danilo bir qədər geridə oynasın.

Biz pley-off mərhələsi haqqında düşünmürük. Hazırda məqsədimiz Şotlandiyaya qarşı oyunda daha yaxşı çıxış etmək, qalib gəlmək və mümkün olsa, qrupda birinci yeri tutmaqdır. Şotlandiyanın özünəməxsus xüsusiyyətləri var və Mərakeşlə oyunda olduğu kimi problemlər yarada bilər. Vacib olan sakitliyi, soyuqqanlılığı qorumaq və işləməyə davam etməkdir.

Bütün oyunlar çətindir. Braziliya Futbol Konfederasiyasında inanırıq ki, istənilən komandaya qarşı rəqabət apara bilərik. Buraya həm Haiti, həm də Fransa daxildir.

Sabah Neymar fərdi məşqlər edəcək, bazar günü isə ümumi qrupla çalışmalara qayıdacaq. Bundan sonra o, Şotlandiya ilə oyun üçün heyətə daxil ediləcək”.

Haiti millisinin baş məşqçisi Sebastyen Minye isə uduzduqları qarşılaşmanı şərh edib:

“Braziliya millisi ilə qarşılaşmağımız bəxtsizlik idi. Sonuncu dəfə dünya çempionatında iştirak etməyimizdən 52 il keçib və bunu nəzərə almalıyıq. Futbolçularımız da burada olmağa layiq olduqlarının fərqindədirlər. Çox yaxşı oyun planımız var idi, lakin ilk su fasiləsindən sonra etdiyimiz səhvlər və top itkiləri bizə baha başa gəldi”.

DÇ-2026: Braziliyadan Haitiyə 3 cavabsız qol

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Braziliya və Haiti yığmaları üz-üzə gəliblər. Filadelfiyada (Pensilvaniya, ABŞ) keçirilmiş C qrupunun matçında Cənubi Amerika təmsilçisi darmadağına sevinib. Mateus Kunyanın dubla imza atdığı görüşdə digər qolu Vinisius Junior vurub.

Xatırladaq ki, bu qrupun digər qarşılaşmasında Mərakeş millisi Şotlandiya yığmasını tək qolla üstələmişdi.

Beləliklə, 2 turdan sonra Braziliya və Mərakeş yığmalarının hərəyə 4 xalı var. Şotlandiya 3 xalla üçüncüdür. Xalsız olan Haiti millisi isə sonuncudur.

Stiv Klark: “Məyusuq, amma hələ bir şansımız var”

Şotlandiya millisinin baş məşqçisi Stiv Klark dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsi çərçivəsində Mərakeşə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində üz-üzə gəlmiş bu komandaların oyunu Mərakeş millisinin 1:0 hesablı qələbəsi ilə bitib.

Stiv Klark matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında komandasının məğlubiyyətinə belə şərh verib:

“Düşünürdük ki, istədiyimiz nəticəni əldə edə biləcəyik. Oyuna çox pis başladıq. Qarşılaşmaya uyğunlaşmaq üçün ilk beş-on dəqiqəni tab gətirməli olduq. Bundan sonra isə rəqibə problem yarada biləcəyimizi göstərdik.

Təəssüf ki, hesabı dəyişə biləcək yeganə açıq qol epizodundan yararlana bilmədik. Həmin qol bizə ən azı bir xal qazandıra bilərdi.

Bu komanda uzun illərdir xarakter və dözümlülük nümayiş etdirir. Biz məyusuq, amma hələ bir şansımız var.

Hamı Skott Maktmineylə bağlı epizodu müzakirə edir. Mən Con Makqinnlə bağlı vəziyyətə baxdım – bu, 50-yə 50 epizod idi. Bəzi hakimlər penalti təyin edərdi, bəziləri isə yox. Bəzən VAR sistemi də müdaxilə edir.

Bu komanda yenidən ayağa qalxmağa hazırdır. Biz buraya indiyədək heç bir Şotlandiya komandasının bacarmadığını etmək üçün gəlmişik. Bu gün əlimizdən gələni etdik və yenə də bunu etməyə çalışacağıq”.

Mərakeş millisinin baş məşqçisi Məhəmməd Uahbi isə Şotlandiya üzərində qazanılan qələbədən sonra komandasının çıxışını yüksək qiymətləndirib:

“Bu, əla oyun idi. Ümid edirəm ki, eyni ruhda davam edəcəyik”.

Mütəxəssis bildirib ki, “Atlas şirləri” sürəti azaltmaq fikrində deyil və komanda bundan sonra da əzmlə çalışmağa davam edəcək.

“Abde Ezzalzuli (Saybari) iki qol vurdu və ümid edirəm ki, bu cür davam edəcəyik”.

Komandanın birliyini necə qoruduğu ilə bağlı suala isə Uahbi təvazökarlıqla cavab verib:

“Komanda onsuz da vahid kollektiv idi. Mən və köməkçilərim sadəcə heyətə gənc futbolçular əlavə etdik”.

Baş məşqçi həmçinin bu komandanın bir hissəsi olmaqdan qürur duyduğunu bildirib.

DÇ-2026: Mərakeş Şotlandiyanı tək qolla yendi

Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (ABŞ), Kanada və Meksikada təşkil edilmiş futbol üzrə sayca 23-cü dünya çempionatı (DÇ-2026) davam edir.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Şotlandiya və Mərakeş yığmaları üz-üzə gəliblər. Foksboroda (Massaçusets, ABŞ) keçirilmiş C qrupunun matçında Mərakeş tək qolla qalib gəliblər. Qalib komandaya qələbəni gətirən qolu 2-ci dəqiqədə İsmael Saybari vurub.

Qeyd edək ki, bu qrupun digər qarşılaşmasında saat 04:30-da Braziliya Haiti ilə üz-üzə gələcək.

Poçettino: “Bu, fantastik oyun idi”

ABŞ millisinin baş məşqçisi Maurisio Poçettino dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsi çərçivəsində Avstraliyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində üz-üzə gəlmiş bu komandaların oyunu ABŞ millisinin 2:0 hesablı qələbəsi ilə bitib.

Bu nəticə sayəsində ABŞ yığması vaxtından əvvəl pley-off mərhələsinə vəsiqə qazanıb.

Poçettino matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Bu, fantastik oyun və çox yaxşı keçən ilk hissə idi. Düşünürəm ki, meydanda üstün tərəf biz idik.

Çox çətin matç gözləyirdim, xüsusilə də dekabr ayında onlarla heç-heçə etdiyimizi nəzərə alsaq. Azarkeşlərimiz adına çox sevinirəm.

Kristian Pulişic zədə səbəbindən oynaya bilmədi. Amma turniri qazanmaq istəyiriksə, bizə bütün komanda lazımdır”.

Avstraliya millisinin baş məşqçisi Toni Popovic də oyundan sonra komandasının çıxışını dəyərləndirib:

“Bilmirəm, bəlkə də səbəb mövcud vəziyyət idi, amma biz ləng və çevik olmayan təsir bağışlayırdıq.

Rəqib daha sürətli, daha güclü idi, bütün ikili mübarizələri və ikinci topları qazanırdı. Belə olduqda oyunun tempini tutmaq çox çətinləşir və nəticədə iki asan qol buraxdıq.

Hesab edirəm ki, ikinci hissədə komandamız çox yaxşı reaksiya verdi. Azarkeşlərin yaratdığı böyük təzyiq və səs-küy fonunda futbolçular ikinci hissədə nəyə qadir olduqlarını göstərdilər”.

DÇ-2026: Əlcəzair hakimlikdən narazı qalıb – FIFA-ya şikayət

Əlcəzair Futbol Federasiyası DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin I turunun Argentina ilə matçının hakimliyindən FIFA-ya şikayət edib.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, bu barədə “Lequipe” nəşri məlumat yayıb. Federasiya oyundakı iki epizodla bağlı rəsmi şikayət ərizəsi təqdim edib.

Epizodların biri 32-ci dəqiqədə Lionel Messinin Aissa Mandinin baldırına endirdiyi zərbə ilə bağlıdır. Referi bu müdaxiləyə sarı vərəqə belə göstərməyib, VAR müdaxilə etməyib.

Digər epizod isə Aleksis Mak Allisterin 74-cü dəqiqədə İbrahima Mazanı dirsəklə vurması ilə bağlıdır. Hakim bu epizodda da rəsmi xəbərdarlıq etməyib.

Argentina – Əlcəzair görüşü “tanqoçular”ın qələbəsiylə başa çatıb – 3:0. Görüşdə qolları Lionel Messi vurub.

“Sambaçılar”da Neymar sevinci

Braziliya millisinin futbolçusu Neymar zədəsini sağaldıb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, bu barədə komandanın baş məşqçisi Karlo Ançelotti yerli mətbuata açıqlamasında deyib. O, hücumçunun məşqləri bərpa edəcəyini və DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin III turunda Şotlandiya ilə matçda meydana çıxa biləcəyini bildirib.

Neymar mundialdakı iki turu da buraxıb.

Braziliya qrupda 4 xalla birinci sıradadır.

Arda Güler: “Çox məyusuq, utanırıq”

Türkiyə millisi DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin II turunda Paraqvaya uduzub – 0:1.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, ardıcıl ikinci matçında məğlub olan türklərin qrupda qalacağı dəqiqləşib.

Türkiyə yığmasının futbolçusu Arda Güler məğlubiyyətdən sonra azarkeşlərdən üzr istəyib:

“Hamıdan üzr istəyirəm. Çox məyusuq, hətta utanırıq. Bundan sonrakı turnirlərdə daha yaxşısını etməyə çalışacağıq.

Bu məğlubiyyətləri unutdurmaq üçün əlimizdən gələni edəcəyik. Böyük komandalarda oynadığımızı meydanda göstərə bilmədik”.

Mundialı tərk edəcəyi dəqiqləşən iki komanda

DÇ-2026-da qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunun oyunları keçirilir.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki artıq iki komandanın mundiala tərk edəcəyi dəqiqləşib.

C qrupunda Braziliyaya uduzan Haiti və D qrupunda Paraqvaya məğlub olan Türkiyə millisinin sona bir tur qalmış növbəti mərhələ şansları qalmayıb.

Hər iki komanda mundialdakı iki oyunu da uduzub.

55 zərbə, 0 qol

Türkiyə milli komandası DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turunda Paraqvaya uduzub (0:1) və növbəti mərhələ şanslarını bitirib.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, Vinçenso Montellanın rəhbərlik etdiyi kollektiv keçirdiyi iki oyunda ümumilikdə rəqib qapılarına 55 zərbə endirib, amma qol vura bilməyib.

DÇ-2026: yeni qaydalarla gələn ilk “qırmızı”

Paraqvay millisinin futbolçusu Mikel Almiron DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin II turunun Türkiyə ilə matçında qırmızı vərəqə alıb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, bu mundialdan tətbiq edilən yeni qaydalara görə meydandan qovulan ilk futbolçu olub.

Belə ki, Almiron rəqibi ilə danışan zaman ağzını əli ilə bağladığı üçün qırmızı vərəqə alıb.

Türkiyə – Paraqvay matçı ikincilərin qələbəsiylə başa çatıb – 1:0.

Paraguay’s Almiron becomes first player to get sent off at World Cup under new FIFA rule

The World Cup has already produced one of its most unusual disciplinary moments, with Paraguay attacker Miguel Almiron becoming the first player at the tournament to be sent off for covering his mouth during a confrontation.

The incident happened late in the first half of Paraguay’s Group D match against Turkey.

During a heated exchange with an opponent, Almiron covered his mouth while speaking, which triggered the tournament’s new disciplinary protocol.

After a VAR check, the referee showed him a straight red card.

According to The Guardian, the decision left Paraguay down to 10 men while they were trying to protect their position in a crucial group-stage fixture.

It was a major moment not only in the match, but also in the wider debate around how football handles abuse on the pitch.

Why the rule was introduced ahead of World Cup

The new law was approved in April by IFAB ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

It was designed to stop players from hiding potentially discriminatory language by covering their mouth with a hand, arm or shirt during confrontations.

The rule gained momentum after Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior alleged he had been abused by Benfica’s Gianluca Prestianni during a Champions League match.

That incident created pressure for football authorities to act more aggressively against hidden insults and abusive language.

Important caution over the incident

However, Almiron’s red card also raises an important question.

There was no immediate suggestion that he said anything racist or discriminatory.

The punishment appeared to be based on the act of covering his mouth itself, rather than confirmed evidence of what was said.

That is where the controversy lies. The rule has good intentions, and football clearly needs stronger protection against racism and abuse.

But if referees apply it automatically, players may now be punished severely even when the actual words remain unknown.

This incident has made one thing clear: the new rule will not be ignored.

Players have been warned, and the World Cup has already delivered its first major test case.

Kurasao millisi Ginnesin Rekordlar Kitabına düşdü!

Kurasao millisi futbol üzrə dünya çempionatında (DÇ-2026) iştirak edən ən az əhaliyə malik ölkə kimi “Ginnesin Rekordlar Kitabı”na düşüb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komanda “Ginnesin Rekordlar Kitabı”nın mətbuat xidməti tərəfindən rekordçu elan olunub.

Karib dənizində yerləşən və Niderland Krallğının tərkibinə daxil olan Kurasaonun əhalisi cəmi 156 min nəfərdir.

Kurasao yığması dünya çempionatları tarixində ilk oyununu iyunun 14-də keçirib. Debüt matçında komanda Almaniya millisinə 1:7 hesabı ilə məğlub olub.

Kurasao 2010-cu ilə qədər Niderland Antillesnin tərkibində olub. Həmin ildən sonra ada Niderland Krallığının tərkibində muxtar dövlət statusu qazanıb.

Qeyd edək ki, 2026-cı il dünya çempionatı ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikanın birgə ev sahibliyi ilə keçirilir. Tarixdə ilk dəfə 48 komandanın iştirak etdiyi turnir iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq.

Komandalar 12 qrupa bölünüblər. Hər qrupdan ilk iki yeri tutan yığmalar, həmçinin ən yaxşı nəticə göstərən səkkiz üçüncü yer sahibi pley-off mərhələsinə vəsiqə qazanacaq.

Kurasao millisi E qrupunda Almaniya, Kot-d’İvuar və Ekvadorla mübarizə aparır. Sözügedən komanda növbəti oyununu iyunun 21-də Ekvadora qarşı keçirəcək.

Cud Bellingem DÇ-2026-da iştirakla yeni rekorda imza atdı

Futbol üzrə İngiltərə milli komandasının və Madrid “Real”ının hücumameyilli yarımmüdafiəçisi Cud Bellingem Avropa futbolunda yeni rekorda imza atıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, o, buna DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda Xorvatiyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunda (4:2) nail olub.

Belə ki, Bellingem dörd müxtəlif böyük beynəlxalq turnirdə iştirak edən ən gənc avropalı futbolçu adını qazanıb. Xorvatiya ilə matç zamanı o, 22 yaşı 353 günlüyündə olub.

Əvvəlki rekord isə Lukas Podolskiyə məxsus idi. O, dördüncü böyük beynəlxalq turnirində 23 yaş 4 günlük olarkən iştirak etmişdi.

Xatırladaq ki, Cud Bellingem 2023-cü ilin iyunundan “Real”da çıxış edir. O, Madrid klubuna 103 milyon avro məbləğ müqabilində Dormund “Borussiya”sından keçib. Hücumameyilli yarımmüdafiəçi İspaniya nəhəngi ilə müddəti 2029-cu ilin iyun ayının sonuna qədər nəzərdə tutulmuş müqaviləyə imza atıb.

Bellingem geridə qalmış mövsümdə meydana çıxdığı 40 oyunda 8 qol vurub, 5 məhsuldar ötürmə verib. İngilis yarımmüdafiəçinin “Real”ın heyətində çıxışının ümumi mənzərəsi 140 oyun, 46 qol və 33 məhsuldar ötürmədən ibarətdir.

Bellingem “Real”la İspaniya Super Kubokunun (2024), İspaniya La Liqasının (2023/2024), UEFA Çempionlar Liqasının (2023/2024), UEFA Super Kubokunun (2024), FIFA Qitələrarası Kubokun (2024) qalibi olub.

Cud Bellingem 2020-ci ilin noyabr ayında debüt etdiyi İngiltərə yığmasının heyətində 49 oyun keçirib, 7 qol vurub və 10 məhsuldar ötürmə verib.

“Transfermarkt” 22 yaşlı yarımmüdafiəçisinin transfer dəyərini 130 milyon avro məbləğində qiymətləndirir.

Joan Manzambi 24 illik rekordu yenilədi

Futbol üzrə İsveçrə milli komandasının 20 yaşlı mərkəz yarımmüdafiəçisi Joan Manzambi dünya çempionatlarının tarixinə düşüb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, gənc yarımmüdafiəçi buna DÇ-2026-nın B qrupunun 2-ci turunda Bosniya və Herseqovinanı məğlub etdikləri matçda nail olub.

O, mundiallarda əvəzetmədən meydana çıxaraq dubl edən ən gənc oyunçu olub. Manzambi bunu 20 yaş 247 günündə bacarıb.

Əvvəlki rekord DÇ-2002-də Sloveniyaya qarşı görüşdə iki dəfə fərqlənmiş paraqvaylı Nelson Kuevasaya (22 yaş 153) məxsus idi.

Xatırladaq ki, İsveçrə Bosniya və Herseqovinanı 4:1 hesabı ilə üstələyib.

Joan Manzambi bu oyunda vurduğu iki qoldan sonra təəssüratlarını bölüşüb. Qələbədə əsas pay sahiblərindən biri olan futbolçu bu uğurun karyerasında xüsusi yer tutduğunu bildirib.

“Fikrimcə, bu, karyeramın ən yaxşı anıdır. Dünya çempionatına uğurlu başlaya bilməməyimizin səbəblərini bilirdik. Bu oyunda isə soyuqqanlı davranmağı bacardıq. Bizim çox yaxşı komandamız var və bunu bu gün meydanda göstərdik”.

Conatan Devid Kanada millisinin və DÇ-nin tarixinə düşdü

Kanada yığmasının hücumçusu Conatan Devid DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsində Qətərlə matçda het-trik edərək dünya çempionatları tarixinə düşüb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, futbolçu 1966-cı ildən bəri mundialda ev sahibi ölkə millisinin heyətində het-trik edən ilk oyunçu ünvanına yiyələnib.

Bütövlükdə isə bu, dünya çempionatları tarixində 6-cı belə haldır.

Conatan Devid dünya çempionatları tarixində daha bir nadir uğura imza atıb. Kanadalı forvard 1930-cu ildən bəri KONKAKAF (Şimali və Mərkəzi Amerika və Karib Hövzəsi Futbol Konfederasiyası) ölkələrini təmsil edən ilk futbolçu olub ki, dünya çempionatında bir matçda 3 qol vurub.

Bundan əvvəl dünya çempionatında bir oyunda üç qol vuran son KONKAKAF futbolçusu ABŞ millisinin sabiq hücumçusu Bert Patenaude olmuşdu. O, bunu 1930-cu ildə Paraqvaya qarşı oyunda bacarmışdı.

Kanada yığması da Qətər üzərində qazandığı 6:0 hesablı qələbə ilə tarixi nailiyyətə imza atıb. Sözügedən komanda dünya çempionatları tarixində Avropa və Cənubi Amerika xaricindən çıxan ilk komanda olub ki, bir oyunda 5-dən çox qol vurmağı bacarıb.

Vankuverdə keçirilmiş qarşılaşmada həm də Qətər millisinin baş məşqçisi Xulen Lopeteqi dünya çempionatları tarixində ispan məşqçilərin rəhbərlik etdiyi komandalar arasında ən böyük hesablı məğlubiyyət rekordunun sahibi olub.

İki turdan sonra Kanada B qrupunda 4 xalla liderdir. Eyni xala malik İsveçrə yığması ikinci pillədə qərarlaşıb. Bosniya və Herseqovina və Qətər yığmaları isə hərəyə 1 xal toplayıblar.

Qrup mərhələsinin son turunda Kanada İsveçrə ilə, Qətər Bosniya və Herseqovina ilə qarşılaşacaq.

Qeyd edək ki, DÇ-2026 ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikanın birgə ev sahibliyi ilə keçirilir. Tarixdə ilk dəfə 48 komandanın iştirak etdiyi turnir iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq.

Germany and Ivory Coast aim to seal World Cup knockout place: All to know

Who: Germany vs Ivory Coast
WhatFIFA World Cup 2026 Group E match
Where: Toronto Stadium, Toronto, Canada
When: Saturday, 4pm (20:00 GMT)
How to follow: Keep up with all updates on Al Jazeera Sport

One of the most mouthwatering matches in the second round of games in the World Cup 2026 group stage sees four-time champions Germany facing a talented Ivory Coast outfit in Toronto on Saturday evening.

Both sides made a winning start to their Group E campaign, in very different ways, as Die Mannschaft overcame an early scare against Curacao to romp to a 7-1 win, while The Elephants eventually pipped Ecuador 1-0 with a last-gasp goal, after the South Americans had hit the woodwork three times.

Germany under the radar?

After disappointing group-stage exits in 2018 and 2022, Germany came into this tournament somewhat under the radar, with the perennial powerhouse ranked only seventh-favourites to lift their fifth World Cup.

While they turned on the style thanks to young stars like Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz to pile on the goals against Curacao – the smallest nation by size and population ever to have taken part in a World Cup – and the goals have flowed in 10 straight wins, this will be a far stiffer test.

Curacao caused the German defence a few problems, especially in the opening half-hour, and it’s their pivotal central-defensive pairing of Jonathan Tah and Nico Schlotterbeck, playing in front of 40-year-old keeper Manuel Neuer, that will ultimately decide how deep the Germans can go in this tournament.

Dynamic Arsenal attacking midfielder Kai Havertz continued his recent goalscoring run for club and country with a double for Germany in the opening game, but he will likely find the Ivory Coast defence a harder challenge than that posed by Curacao’s backline.

By winning their group opener, Germany did what they couldn’t in 2018 and 2022 and appear certain to progress to a first knockout match since the 2014 World Cup Final. Whether they advance as group winners, or limp through in the minor places, might well come down to the result in Toronto.

A win against Ivory Coast would secure direct top-two qualification to the Round of 32 and would likely be enough to top Group E should Ecuador fail to beat Curacao four hours later in Kansas City.

In an alternate scenario, even with a German victory against Ivory Coast, Ecuador – if they can beat both Curacao and then the Germans in Thursday’s group finale – would make things very interesting, with the potential for three teams – Germany, Ivory Coast and Ecuador – to be locked on six points and tiebreakers needed to separate them.

It matters because the team finishing first will play a third-placed qualifier, while the runner-up will face the team finishing second in the group featuring France, Norway, Senegal and Iraq, and the team qualifying third would face a group winner, potentially England or Mexico.

Pivotal match as Ivory Coast seek history

The Elephants might have ridden their luck, but ending Ecuador’s 19-match unbeaten streak across nearly two years in their opening game caught the eye of their fan base and will have raised expectations.

Amad Diallo’s last-minute winner ensured Ivory Coast have now won a game at all four World Cups for which they have qualified, and they can reach the knockout stages for the first time, if they defeat Germany.

In fact, they can seal top spot in Group E should they beat Die Mannschaft and Ecuador fail to beat Curacao in the other group game later on Saturday evening.

A draw against Germany would make for an intriguing group finale on Thursday night, as it would likely leave all three teams in with a chance of finishing first going into the final game, with Ivory Coast potentially needing to beat Curacao by more than six goals to ensure supremacy on goal difference.


How does the group stage work?

Germany, Ivory Coast, Ecuador and Curacao are in Group E.

They will play each other once in the initial stage of the tournament. The top two teams from each of the 12 groups – along with the eight best third-placed teams – will proceed to the next phase, the round of 32, which has been introduced at the World Cup for the first time.

Head-to-head

This will be just the second meeting between Germany and Ivory Coast.

The previous game was a friendly in November 2009, which saw Lukas Podolski score twice, including a last-gasp equaliser in a 2-2 draw.

Form guide:

(Last five games, latest match first)

Germany: W-W-W-W-W

Ivory Coast: W-W-W-W-L

Germany’s thumping win over Curacao last Sunday means they have won 10 straight games going back to September 2025 and have scored two or more goals in nine of those matches.

They have, however, struggled at the opposite end of the pitch, conceding goals in seven straight World Cup matches, their longest run since 1970, and their last clean sheet came in the 2014 final against Argentina in Brazil.

Ivory Coast go in search of a fifth straight victory, and confidence is high after both the Ecuador triumph last Sunday, which followed their 2-1 win against world number-three France in their final warm-up game in Paris on June 4.

Their last defeat came in the AFCON quarterfinal against Egypt in January.

5 - Last night for @equipenatciv vs Ecuador, Yan Diomande became the first player Opta has on record since 1966 to create 5+ chances (5), make 5+ tackles (5), win 10+ duels (11) and have 10+ touches in the opposition’s box (12) in a FIFA World Cup match.

Team news: Germany

Coach Julian Nagelsmann might well keep faith with the same XI that eventually put Curacao to the sword, but if he does, it might be tough on Deniz Undav.

The Stuttgart forward came off the bench to replace Jamal Musiala with 26 minutes to go and scored and provided two assists as Germany picked up their biggest win since the 2014 semifinal against Brazil. The versatile Undav has scored seven times and added four assists in just 10 appearances for Die Mannschaft.

Team news: Ivory Coast

Ivory Coast coach Emerse Fae likely has more decisions to make.

Elye Wahi started the win over Ecuador up front before being replaced just before the hour by Ange-Yoan Bonny.

He was initially denied entry into Canada for this match due to visa complications. He was linked to a sports betting scandal while playing for Nice in Ligue 1 last month, but has since been authorised to travel and could yet be involved.

Bonny and unused subs from the first game, Oumar Diakite and Evann Guessand, are alternative options in attack.

Diallo came off the bench to win it, and the Manchester United attacking midfielder will be pushing to start, which might mean a switch of flanks for teenage starlet Yan Diomande, who stole the show on the right against Ecuador and will be eager to put on a show against the nation in which he plays for RB Leipzig.

Germany predicted XI:

Neuer (goalkeeper); Kimmich, Tah, Schlotterbeck, Brown; Pavlovic, Nmecha; Sane, Musiala, Wirtz; Havertz.

Ivory Coast predicted XI:

Y. Fofana (goalkeeper); Doue, Singo, Agbadou, Konan; Diallo, Kessie, S. Fofana, Diomande; Bonny, Toure.

İsmael Kone Qətərlə matçda ağır zədə aldı, DÇ ilə vidalaşdı

Kanada millisinin yarımmüdafiəçisi İsmael Kone dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turunda Qətərlə oyunda ciddi zədə alıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, Vankuverdə keçirilmiş qarşılaşmanın 52-ci dəqiqəsində, hesab 3:0 Kanada komandasının xeyrinə olarkən, Qətər millisinin müdafiəçisi Asim Madibo Koneyə qarşı kobud qayda pozuntusuna yol verib.

Bundan sonra həkimlər dərhal meydana daxil olaraq futbolçuya ilkin yardım göstəriblər. Zədənin ağırlığı səbəbindən Kone meydanı xərəkdə tərk edib. Hadisədən sonra futbolçular arasında gərginlik yaşanıb və qısa müddətli qarşıdurma baş verib.

Kanada yığmasının bəzi üzvləri zədə alan komanda yoldaşına görə göz yaşlarını saxlaya bilməyiblər. Zədənin həddən artıq ciddi olması səbəbindən matçın yayımı zamanı epizodun təkrarının göstərilməməsi qərara alınıb. Çünki qayda pozuntusu zamanı Konenin ayağı qırılıb.

Baş hakim qayda pozuntusuna görə Madibonu birbaşa qırmızı vərəqə ilə meydandan kənarlaşdırıb. Qətər millisi oyunu doqquz nəfərlə davam etdirmək məcburiyyətində qalıb. Belə ki, bundan əvvəl komandanın digər üzvü Homam Əl-Əmin də qırmızı vərəqə alaraq meydandan qovulmuşdu.

İtaliyanın “Sassuolo” klubunun formasını geyinən İsmael Kone ağır zədə səbəbindən ən qısa zamanda əməliyyat olunacaq. Onun bərpa müddəti dəqiq bilinməsə də, bu dünya çempionatında bir daha oynamayacağı dəqiqdir.

Qeyd edək ki, ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikanın birgə ev sahibliyi etdiyi dünya çempionatı iyulun 19-da başa çatacaq.

Koné injury: Sassuolo and Serie A react as Canada star faces lengthy layoff

Sassuolo and Lega Serie A reacted to Ismael Koné’s horrific injury with the Canada national team, wishing him a speedy recovery: ‘We will get through this difficult time together,’ his club said.

Sassuolo midfielder Koné suffered a broken leg during Canada’s 6-0 win over Qatar in their second 2026 World Cup group stage game on Thursday.

Koné immediately underwent surgery in Vancouver, where he was visited by his teammate Moïse Bombito.

Koné scored six goals in 36 matches with Sassuolo during the 2025-26 season. He played a significant role for the Neroverdi in his first year in Serie A, and the Italian club sent him a message on social media following his injury.

“Get well soon, Isma,” Sassuolo wrote on X.

“We are close to you, and together we will get through this difficult time.”

Get well soon, Isma!

Ti siamo vicini e insieme supereremo questo momento difficile 🖤💚#ForzaSasol pic.twitter.com/KdTjlx5YNF

— U.S. Sassuolo (@SassuoloUS) June 19, 2026

Lega Serie A joined Sassuolo in wishing Koné a speedy recovery with a message posted on Facebook: “We’re gonna wait to see you again like this! Get well soon.”

The Serie A message came with a picture of Koné celebrating one of Canada’s goals against Qatar before his injury in the second half.

Koné’s recovery time remains unclear, but he’ll obviously miss several months of action with his club.

Ancelotti confirms Brazil line-up changes for World Cup game vs. Haiti

Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti confirms he’ll ‘make some changes’ for the second World Cup group stage game against Haiti: ‘We have to find a solution.’

Brazil face Haiti in their second group stage game at the 2026 World Cup on Saturday, June 20 at 2:30 CET Friday, June 19 at 6:30 pm local time.

Ancelotti’s side had a disappointing start to the tournament, grabbing a 1-1 draw against Morocco, which dominated proceedings for much of the match.

Brazil vs. Haiti – Ancelotti confirms line-up changes

“The team can and must do more,” Ancelotti admitted at a pre-match press conference via Corriere dello Sport.

“We’ll make some changes, maybe bring in a fresher player. We need to improve our balance and the quality of our play. Make fewer steps wrong. We have the quality to do it, to play a fun game.

“I have no problem communicating initial training. Football has no secrets, but I prefer to tell the players first,” Ancelotti added.

“Against Morocco, the match didn’t go well and makes me a bit critical of the team. We have to find a solution. We have been working over the past few days to try to resolve the situation, and I believe we will succeed because I continue to trust that the team will be competitive in this World Cup.”

According to Gazzetta, Ancelotti will make three changes to the Brazil XI, but Endrick is expected to remain on the bench.

Douglas Santos is expected to replace Alex Sandro as left-back, Fabinho should replace Casemiro in central midfield, while Luiz Henrique will replace Paquetà, Gazzetta claims.

“We have to do many things well: defend with a low block, attack, exploit individual quality, be aggressive forward, lower the block, defend in our own area,” Ancelotti continued.

“Haiti is a very balanced team, with above all physical quality, well organised and with a rather clear system.

“They play good football given their characteristics. We must respect everyone because this is a World Cup and everyone is very motivated.”

Probable Brazil XI vs. Haiti (4-2-4): Alisson; Danilo, Marquinhos, Gabriel, Douglas Santos; Fabinho, Bruno Guimarães; Raphinha, Vinícius, Matheus Cunha, Luiz Henrique.

Xavyer Aqirre: “Bu, ən yaxşı oyunumuz deyildi”

Meksika yığmasının baş məşqçisi Xavyer Aqirre dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Cənubi Koreyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində Cənubi Koreya üzərində 1:0 hesablı qələbəyə sevinmiş meksikalılar dünya çempionatının pley-off mərhələsinə yüksəliblər.

Xavyer Aqirre matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Çox çətin oyun oldu. Biz rəqibi çox yaxşı tanıyırıq. Onlar bizə güclü təzyiq göstərirdilər. Onlar bizə boşluq vermədiyi kimi, biz də onlara imkan yaratmırdıq.

Sonda elə görünürdü ki, bir səhv oyunun taleyini həll edə bilər. Bu, ən yaxşı oyunumuz deyildi. Çünki rəqib bizə öz futbolumuzu tam göstərməyə imkan vermirdi”.

Cənubi Koreya yığmasının baş məşqçisi Hon Myon Bo isə Meksikaya 0:1 hesablı məğlubiyyətdən sonra komandasının çıxışını belə dəyərləndirib:

“Biz planlaşdırdığımız kimi oynadıq. Məğlubiyyətin bu şəkildə gəlməsi məyusedicidir.

Qrup mərhələsinin son oyununda bütün gücümüzü ortaya qoyacağıq. Futbolçulardan sakit qalmağı və öz oyunumuzu oynamağı xahiş etmişdim. Düşünürəm ki, bunu kifayət qədər yaxşı bacardıq.

Oyun boyu soyuqqanlılığımızı qoruduq. İndi isə bütün diqqətimizi növbəti qarşılaşmaya hazırlığa yönəldəcəyik”.

Cessi Marş: “Bu, bizim üçün tarixi qələbədir”

Kanada millisinin baş məşqçisi Cessi Marş dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsi çərçivəsində Qətərə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, Kanada millisi DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində qarşılaşdığı bu rəqibini 6:0 hesabıyla məğlub edib.

Cessi Marş matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Bu, bizim üçün tarixi qələbədir. Lakin hazırda ən çox düşündüyümüz məsələ İsmayıl Konedir. Onun zədəsi bizi çox narahat edir. Komanda olaraq onun ətrafında birləşmişik və ən qısa zamanda sağalmasını arzulayırıq. İsmayıl əla insandır. O, ideal deyil, amma məhz buna görə onu sevirik. O, digər futbolçuların bacarmadığı şeyləri edə bilir. O, bir çox cəhətdən komandamızın simvoludur. Bosniya və Herseqovina ilə oyunda ən yaxşı futbolçumuz idi. Bu, bizim üçün çox böyük itkidir. Biz bütün qəlbimizlə onun yanındayıq və ona dəstək oluruq. Amma əminəm ki, bu oğlanın qarşıda çox böyük gələcəyi var”.

Qətər yığmasının baş məşqçisi Xulen Lopeteqi isə ağır məğlubiyyəti belə şərh edib:

“Bu, bir neçə səbəbə görə çox çətin matç idi. Biz çox güclü rəqibə qarşı oynayırdıq. Oyunun əvvəlində qol buraxdıq, daha sonra isə qırmızı vərəqə aldıq. Bu, dönüş nöqtəsi oldu.

İlk qırmızı vərəqə və üçüncü qol oyunun taleyini həll etdi. Amma futbol belədir. İndi futbolçularımızı fiziki, mənəvi və psixoloji baxımdan bərpa etməliyik.

Dünya çempionatında hər növbəti oyun əvvəlkindən daha çətin olur. Lakin biz bu turnirdə iştirak etmək haqqını qazanmışıq.

Bosniya və Herseqovina ilə oyun? Həmin qarşılaşmada səhv etmək hüququmuz yoxdur. Bu, həm bizim, həm də onların son oyunu olacaq. İndi əsas məqsəd bərpa olunmaqdır. Dediyim kimi, bu matç bir neçə səbəbə görə çox ağır keçdi. Futbolçuların sağlamlığının qayğısına qalmalıyıq, sonra isə nə olacağını görəcəyik”.

Kanadalı futbolçu dünya çempionatları tarixinə düşdü

Kanada millisinin futbolçusu Conatan Devid dünya çempionatları tarixinə düşüb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, hücumçu II turda Qətərlə matçda (6:0) het-trik etməklə buna nail olub.

Devid mundiallar tarixində 1966-cı ildən sonra ev sahibi ölkənin heyətində üç qol vuran birinci futbolçu olub.

Conatan eyni zamanda 1930 dünya çempionatından sonra bir matçda het-trik edən ilk KONKAKAF (Şimali Amerika, Mərkəzi Amerika və Karib Futbol Assosiasiyaları Konfederasiyası) futbolçusudur.

Picture: Canada defender visits Koné in hospital as Sassuolo star has surgery

Ismael Koné underwent surgery after suffering a broken leg in Canada’s 6-0 World Cup win over Qatar last night and was immediately visited at the hospital by his compatriot Moïse Bombito.

Canada’s first-ever World Cup win, inspired by Jonathan David’s hat-trick last night, was marred by a horrific injury suffered by Sassuolo midfielder Koné.

The 24-year-old was stretchered off following a reckless challenge from Assim Madibo, who was immediately confronted by some of Koné’s teammates and then received a straight red card after a VAR check.

“You could hear the bone snap,” said Canada coach Jesse Marsch via The Athletic.

Your heart goes out to him. Everybody’s shaken for him.”

Ten minutes after Koné’s injury, Nathan Saliba scored a free-kick goal for Canada and celebrated by holding up Koné’s No.8 shirt.

“Koné means everything to this team,” said Juventus and Canada striker David.

“If you ask the same question to any guy on this team, they will tell you the same. He is someone that we love a lot.”

Koné immediately underwent surgery at a Vancouver Hospital and was visited by his teammate Bombito, who then shared a picture on Instagram.

David makes history with Canada hat-trick at World Cup, but Koné suffers serious injury

Juventus striker Jonathan David has made history for Canada, becoming the country’s first player to score a hat-trick at a World Cup, but Sassuolo midfielder Ismael Koné suffered a serious injury in a 6-0 win over Qatar.

Canada secured a comfortable 6-0 win over Qatar in their second group stage game at the 2026 World Cup last night.

Juventus striker David makes Canada history at World Cup

Juventus striker David took centre stage by scoring a hat-trick, becoming the first-ever Canadian player to score three goals in a World Cup match.

There was, however, also bad news for one of the World Cup’s host countries as Sassuolo midfielder Koné suffered a broken leg eight minutes into the second half with Canada leading 3-0.

Assim Madibo’s reckless challenge led to Koné’s injury. The player from Qatar initially received a yellow card, but this was quickly upgraded to a red card after a VAR review.

 “Ismael is such a great kid – he’s so imperfect, but that’s part of why you love him,” said Canada coach Jesse Marsch via The Sun.

“Because he can do great things that nobody else can do, then the next moment he loses concentration. He embodies us as a team, it’s a huge loss for us. He’ll be fine; we’ll get him good doctors and get him back, but that kid is a big part of our future and everything we do.”

Both Koné and David have just terminated their first season in Serie A.

David scored eight goals in 46 appearances across all competitions with Juventus, while Koné netted six times in 36 matches with Sassuolo.

David is now the World Cup’s top-goal scorer, but according to recent reports in Italy, Juventus are open to offers for the Canada international this summer.

According to Gazzetta, however, David wants to remain at Juventus and fight for a starting spot in 2026-27.

Top-tier configurations are equipped with LiDAR and the Horizon Journey J6B ADAS chip to support high-speed and urban Navigation on Autopilot (NOA). The Beta S3 is available in plug-in charging variants and rapid battery-swapping variants. A automated battery swap at a compatible station takes just 99 seconds to unlock, remove, and replace the pack.

Pricing is heavily incentivised towards the Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) swapping option, starting at just 59,800 yuan (US$8,200 or 7,700€) supplemented by a monthly battery rental fee of 599 yuan. The battery-owned pricing is 79,900 to 120,800 yuan. Main competitors are the BYD Seal 06, Nevo A07 and GAC Aion S Plus. The S3 has generated 30,000 orders within one month of pre-sales starting and is destined to great success.

3. Onvo L80 (5,949 sales)

The L80 is the third model by NIO’s mainstream brand Onvo. It is a mid-to-large premium electric SUV, the two-row, five-seat variant of the larger three-row L90 and shares its underlying architecture and most of its body styling with it. To appeal to outdoor enthusiasts, the vehicle is built around extensive cargo access, featuring a wide-aperture, powered front hood. The L80 stands at 5,145 mm long, 1,998 mm wide and 1,766 mm high with a 3,110 mm wheelbase. The cabin features a premium wraparound dashboard layout available in four interior colour themes. It uses high-end materials, including ultra-fibre velvet headlinings, genuine floating wood trim, and “Galaxy Illusion” customisable ambient lighting.

The digital cockpit is spread across a 35-inch Augmented Reality Head-Up Display (AR-HUD) for safety information, a central 17.2-inch 3K infotainment screen, and an 8-inch screen dedicated to rear-row entertainment. The L80 boasts an unprecedented 2,840 litres of maximum storage, the largest of any 5-seat SUV in China. It includes 2,600 litres in the main boot with the second row folded completely flat ad a 240-litre powered front trunk with an 830 mm wide opening.

The RWD variant has a 340 kW electric motor and accelerates 0-100 km/h in 5.9 seconds while the AWD adds a 100 kW front motor for a 0-100 km/h in 4.7 seconds. All trims use an 85 kWh ternary (NCM) battery pack. The RWD range is up to 605 km while the AWD range is up to 570 km. The L80 supports 600 kW ultra-fast charging, capable of replenishing 250 km of range in just 5 minutes. Crucially, it fully supports Nio’s automated battery swap network, allowing a full battery replacement in under three minutes at over 2,500 compatible stations across China.

Pricing for the full purchase option (battery included) is from 242,800 to 279,800 yuan (US$35,700-41,200 or 31,200-35,900€) but buyers who choose to rent the battery via subscription can drop the entry vehicle price down to a stunning 156,800 yuan (US$23,100 or 20,100€) plus a monthly battery rental fee. The Tesla Model Y is the L80’s primary target. Onvo undercuts the base Model Y’s retail price by roughly 17,700 yuan.The L80 is significantly larger, features 900V architecture (which Tesla lacks), boasts battery-swapping tech, and incorporates LiDAR-based autonomy. Tesla relies on its superior brand equity and global Supercharger reputation to push back. The Li Auto L7, Xpeng G9 and Denza N7 are other competitors. The L80 is already Onvo’s best-seller for its first month in market and should continue this way to be deemed a success.

4. NIO ES9 (3,108 sales)

The ES9 is NIO’s ultimate flagship executive SUV. Built on the advanced NT 3.0 platform, it stands as the largest mass-produced pure electric SUV developed in China. Striking a distinct balance between a luxury family hauler and a chauffeured business lounge, it pulls high-end technology from NIO’s ultra-luxury ET9 sedan. The ES9 is 5,365 mm long, 2,029 mm wide and 1,870 mm high with a 3,250 mm wheelbase. Primarily offered in a 2+2+2 six-seat executive layout, the cabin features premium materials, including traditional Chinese landscape art-inspired Su embroidery (boasting nearly 400,000 stitches in a rivers-and-mountains motif) across higher-tier trims.

The interior highlight is the “Sky Island” executive cabin. The second row boasts zero-gravity seats with a continuous 2.3-meter cushion surface and a 42-point full-body massage system. It features liquid crystal (LC) smart dimming windows that tint dark in just 17 milliseconds for absolute privacy. A central “Executive Console” incorporates dual 16-inch screens, a high-definition video conferencing system, and a magnetic tea tray.

A dual-motor all-wheel-drive system produces a combined 520 kW (697 hp) and 700 Nm of torque, catapulting this massive SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.3 seconds, with a top speed of 220 km/h. The ES9 is equipped with the SkyRide 48V fully active air suspension, steer-by-wire technology, and rear-wheel steering—giving this 5.3-metre giant a nimble turning circle of just 10.9 metres. It utilises a 102 kWh CATL ternary lithium-ion battery pack, delivering a CLTC-rated pure-electric range between 580 km and 620 km depending on the configuration and wheel size. Built on a 900V high-voltage platform, it supports 5C ultra-fast charging (adding 255 km of range in 5 minutes via 600 kW hyperchargers). Crucially, it supports NIO’s third-generation network, allowing a full battery swap in under 3 minutes.

NIO undercuts traditional foreign luxury giants by offering its Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) subscription model, which significantly slashes the upfront vehicle purchase cost by 108,000 yuan. Prices range from 498,000 to 628,000 yuan (US$69,000-87,000 or 64,000-80,700€) but are down to 390,000 to 520,000 with BaaS, with an additional monthly battery rental fee. The ES9 rules the ultra-premium, full-size new-energy SUV class, directly targeting the AITO M9, Li Auto L9 and imported legacy icons scubas the BMW X7 and Mercedes GLS as well as flagship luxury EVs like the Mercedes EQS SUV and BMW iX.

5. WEY V9X (1,018 sales)

The WEY V9X is Great Wall Motor’s (GWM) flagship full-size luxury 6-seater SUV, representing a push into the ultra-premium “9-series” SUV segment in China. The V9X features a commanding, business-class silhouette that leans away from rugged off-roading and heavily into modern, streamlined luxury. It draws heavy inspiration from traditional Chinese architectural elements and is available in dual-tone paint schemes. The V9X is offered in two distinct body lengths to suit either families or executives: the standard wheelbase is 5,205 mm long with a 3,050 mm wheelbase and the long wheelbase (Executive Edition) is 5,299 mm long with a 3,150 mm wheelbase. The interior layout is 2+2+2, with the second row featuring premium independent captain’s chairs with heating, ventilation, built-in wireless phone charging pads on the doors, and a 7-litre thermal refrigerator box.

The dashboard features a 12.3-inch driver cluster, dual 17.3-inch infotainment and passenger entertainment touchscreens and a 29-inch smart Head-Up Display (SR-HUD). There is also a 21.4-inch 4K ceiling-mounted entertainment monitor for the rear rows. The initial launch centres on the PHEV setup, with BEV versions expected later. A 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder gasoline engine (175 kW / 235 hp) is paired with dual electric motors and a 4-speed dedicated hybrid transmission (DHT) sending power to all four wheels. Combined system output scales dramatically by variant, producing 684 to 738 hp. It achieves 0–100 km/h in a swift 4.4 to 4.6 seconds. The V9X is offered in three SVOLT battery capacities (55.4 kWh, 66.6 kWh, and 80 kWh), yielding a pure-electric range of 240 km to 470 km (CLTC). Combined with a full gas tank, total comprehensive range spans an incredible 1,343 km to 1,700 km.

The V9X is priced from 349,800 to 389,800 yuan (US$51,400-57,300 or 44,900-50,100€) and enters the heavily contested large, luxury three-row NEV segment in China, targeting premium buyers looking to split the difference between luxury SUVs and MPVs. It will compete with the likes of the Li Auto L9, AITO M9, Denza N9, BYD Great Tang, Zeekr 8X and IM LS9. This is new territory for the WEY brand so we will keep our expectations modest.

6. Luxeed V9 (549 sales)

The Luxeed V9 is a premium, flagship full-size luxury MPV jointly developed by tech giant Huawei and automaker Chery under the Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance (HIMA). Moving away from traditional, bulky MPV design tropes, it is engineered to act as a cutting-edge mobile office and luxury family lounge. The V9 moves away from the oversized, aggressive front grilles common on modern Chinese luxury minivans. It features a clean, fully enclosed front fascia, smooth geometric contours, and a streamlined silhouette designed to lower aerodynamic drag. The V9 is 5,359 mm long, 2,009 mm wide and 1,879 mm high with a 3,250 mm wheelbase.

The vehicle can be arranged in a premium 3-row, 7-seat (2+2+3) or executive 6-seat layouts. The second row can rotate 180 degrees backward to create a face-to-face conference/lounge room with the third row. The entire rear area can also fold into a flat “double bed mode.” In a mass-production first, the V9 features seat-integrated helmet airbags which automatically deploy from the headrests during a crash to encircle and protect the occupants’ heads and necks. The front dashboard features a panoramic triple-screen array (instrument cluster, central infotainment, and passenger screen), supplemented by dual 21.4-inch 3K screens for rear-row passengers. 

The V9 is launched primarily as an Extended Range Electric Vehicle (EREV), utilising a 1.5T engine as the range extender and dual electric motors, paired with a choice of two battery packs: a 37 kWh LFP battery for a pure electric range of 158 km and a 53.4 kWh Ternary Lithium battery for a pure electric range of 210-223 km. Combined with a full tank of gas, the EREV achieves a comprehensive cruising range of up to 1,250 to 1,320 km. The V9 is priced from 389,800 to 519,800 yuan (US$56,500-75,300 or 50,100-66,800€) and will compete with the likes of the Denza D9, Li Auto Mega, Zeekr 009 and Xpeng X9.

7. Audi E7X (400 sales)

The AUDI brand, with a four-letter logo instead of the four-ring badge, is a cooperation with SAIC Motor that was launched last year and is developed specifically in China for China to target tech-savvy, younger buyers. AUDI’s first model was the E5 sportback which has been a complete failure. The pressure is on then for the E7X, a mid-to-large luxury electric crossover, to rectify the trajectory, and first month volumes are not encouraging. The E7X features a monolithic, coupe-like fastback crossover silhouette with short overhangs and a muscular, broad-shouldered stance. It is notably large—stretching over 5 meters long—giving it an imposing road presence that is slightly longer and wider than a standard Audi Q8. The front end features an innovative hidden lighting system: when turned on, more than 1,000 individual triangular LEDs glow straight through the body paint to form a striking signature.

The E7X is 5,049 mm long, 1,997 mm wide, 1,710 mm high with a 3,060 mm wheelbase. The interior strips away physical buttons, anchoring the cockpit around a massive 27-inch 4K panoramic curved infotainment touchscreen seamlessly blended alongside a 12.3-inch digital driver instrument cluster. The rear cabin experience is augmented by a 21.4-inch ceiling-mounted retractable cinema monitor. The E7X offers the Momenta ADAS Suite which enables advanced point-to-point urban Navigation on Autopilot (NOA) and fully automated scenario parking.

The E7X operates on a highly efficient 900V high-voltage electrical architecture utilising ternary NMC battery packs sourced from CATL. RWD variants have a 402 hp electric motor and AWD have dual electric motors for a combined 670 hp and a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 3.9 seconds. Thanks to its 900V platform and 4C fast-charging compatibility, it can charge from 10% to 80% in just 13 minutes, adding roughly 429 km of driving range in a 10-minute flash charge.

Audi launched the E7X with aggressive, market-disrupting pricing to directly tackle domestic Chinese premium brands. It goes from 269,800 to 359,800 yuan (US$39,800-53,000 or 34,700-46,200€), with its primary competitive target being the Xiaomi YU7. While Xiaomi commands ecosystem loyalty and strong initial momentum in China, AUDI counters with a more sophisticated active suspension architecture, a more executive-focused rear cabin (including that massive 21.4-inch drop-down screen), and legacy German manufacturing pedigree. Other competitors include the NIO EL7, Onvo L80 and Porsche Macan Electric.

8. Xpeng GX (270 sales)

The GX is Xpeng’s new flagship full-size SUV, marking the brand’s entry into the luxury three-row market, packing unprecedented processing power and an advanced steer-by-wire chassis. The GX features an undeniable “Range Rover-esque” road presence. It embraces a stately, boxy, and minimalistic design language with an upright front fascia, a high hood line, and distinctively slanted A and B-pillars. The side profile includes sleek retractable door handles. The rear features an executive split-opening tailgate and a clean, single full-width upper LED light bar. The GX comes in at 5,265 mm long, 1,999 mm wide, 1,800 mm high with a 3,115 mm wheelbase.

The vehicle is offered in a luxury 6-seat (2+2+2) layout. The digital cabin skips clutter for crisp screen real estate, powered by XPeng’s proprietary software and includes a 17.3-inch central infotainment touchscreen, 8.8-inch driver digital instrument cluster, 88-inch high-definition Augmented Reality Head-Up Display (AR-HUD) and 21.4-inch ceiling-mounted drop-down entertainment monitor for rear passengers. The GX rides on an advanced chassis featuring Bosch steer-by-wire and brake-by-wire technology, a dual-chamber active air suspension, and rear-wheel steering (7.5° angle normally, ramping to 10° for automated parking), giving it a tight, hatchback-like turning circle.

It is sold in two distinct powertrain variants. First as a BEV supporting 5C fast charging (10% to 80% in 12 minutes) with RWD (635-665 km range) or AWD (720-750 km range and 0-100 km/h in 4.0 seconds). Second as an EREV using a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine as a generator. The GX is priced from 279,800 to 329,800 yuan (US$41,060-48,395 or 35,950-42,400€) and will compete with the likes of the Li Auto L9, AITO M9, NIO ES9 and Denza N9. The GX received 24,863 firm orders within 12 hours of entering the market, so we are looking at a solid performance for the brand’s new flagship.

9. Smart #6 (133 sales)

The #6 is the first ever sedan from the Smart brand, now a Geely Mercedes joint venture. Rather than going pure electric right away, it uniquely debuts with a long-range plug-in hybrid powertrain. The #6 features an elegant, low-slung, “neo-retro” fastback liftback silhouette that measures nearly 4.9 meters long. It comes at exactly 4,906 mm long, 1,922 mm wide, 1,508 mm high with a wheelbase of 2,926 mm (larger than a standard BMW 3-Series). It abandons aggressive angular lines for smooth, aerodynamic curves, giving it a majestic road presence—earning it the official brand mascot of a “shark.”

The interior mirrors the rugged luxury of the Smart #5 but adapts it into a sleeker, lower-profile executive cabin. The dashboard boasts a fully digital driver instrument cluster and dual 13-inch OLED screens seamlessly spanning the centre console over to the front passenger side. The #6 utilises Geely’s high-efficiency NordThor Hybrid (EHD) powertrain, with a front-wheel-drive (FWD) setup paired with a Mercedes-tuned chassis and premium ZF steering. A 1.5-litre turbocharged inline-4 engine producing 120 kW (161 hp) is paired with a 200 kW (268 hp) electric motor integrated into a 3-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) for a combined output of 429 hp.

Smart offers two lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery variants: a 20 kWh pack (SVOLT) for 110–135 km pure electric range (CLTC) or a 41.5 kWh pack (CATL) for up to 285 km pure electric range (CLTC). Combined with a full tank of gas, it reaches 1,810 km of total cruising range, with a fuel economy of roughly 3.9L/100km. The #6 is priced from 177,900 to 217,900 yuan (US$24,500 to $30,000 or 22,900-28,000€) and enters a very competitive premium segment. It will compete with the likes of the BYD Han, BYD Seal 07, Deepal L07, Nevo A07, Zeekr 007 and Xiaomi SU7. Smart has struggled to raise interest with Chinese buyers so far, and the #6 doesn’t seem to have what it takes to reverse the trend.

Murat Yakin: “Su fasiləsini gözləməyə qərar verdik ki…”

İsveçrə yığmasının baş məşqçisi Murat Yakin dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Bosniya və Herseqovinaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 2-ci turu çərçivəsində keçirilmiş oyunda İsveçrə millisi rəqibi üzərində 4:1 hesablı qələbəyə sevinib.

Murat Yakın matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Bu gün vacib olan bütün enerjimizi meydanda qoymaq və həll yolları tapmaq idi. Bizə səbir göstərmək lazım idi. Taktiki dəyişiklikləri etmək üçün su fasiləsini gözləməyə qərar verdik ki, rəqibin buna reaksiya vermək imkanı olmasın.

Daha sürətli futbolçuları meydana buraxdıq və rəqib yorulduqdan sonra boş zonalar yaranmağa başladı. Biz də həmin boşluqlardan istifadə edərək matçın taleyini inamlı şəkildə həll etdik”.

Bosniya və Herseqovina yığmasının baş məşqçisi Sergey Barbarez də məğlubiyyətdən sonra fikirlərini bölüşüb:

“Su fasiləsinə qədər meydanda daha yaxşı oynayan komanda biz idik. Yaxşı çıxış edir, rəqibə təzyiq göstərirdik.

İsveçrə çox güclü futbolçulara malik yaxşı komandadır və onlar boş zonalardan istifadə etməyi bacarırlar. Nəticədə bizi cəzalandırdılar. Amma həyat belədir.

Bu, son 10 oyunda ilk məğlubiyyətimizdir, lakin həyat bununla bitmir. Qarşıda daha bir oyunumuz var və biz həmin matçda qalib gəlmək üçün əlimizdən gələni edəcəyik”.

Iran to lodge complaint with FIFA over World Cup 2026 travel restrictions

Iran’s 2026 World Cup team will lodge a complaint with FIFA claiming they are being subjected to travel restrictions during the tournament in North America, the Iranian football federation spokesperson said on Thursday.

“Despite having submitted its preparation schedule for the tournament well in advance, Iran’s national football team has once again encountered restrictions imposed by the organisers, affecting the implementation of its technical staff’s plans,” the spokesperson said, according to AFP news agency.

Iran wanted to fly from their base camp in Tijuana, Mexico, to the United States two days before their next group match against Belgium in Los Angeles on Sunday. But the Iranian federation claims its request was turned down.

“Given that the game will be played at 12pm local time in Los Angeles, the football federation of Iran requested that the team be allowed to travel to Los Angeles two days before the match,” the spokesman said.

“The aim was to provide sufficient time for players to adapt to the match conditions, complete their final training session, and finalise preparations.

“Despite the technical reasons presented by the federation, the request was once again denied.”


 

After Iran’s first World Cup game on Monday – in which they drew 2-2 with New Zealand in a politically charged encounter – US officials said that the team will have to leave the country within hours of the full-time whistle at their World Cup group games in Los Angeles and Seattle.

The response from the World Cup 2026 cohost nation came on Tuesday following criticism of its handling of the Iranian team’s visas and stay in the US after their first game.

The Iranian delegation left the US hours after the match in LA ended at about 8pm local time (03:00 GMT) and returned to their base camp in Mexico, prompting criticism of the US handling of their visas, as the team did not get a day to recover at their hotel.

‘Match day minus one,’ says US government

The US administration has pushed back against the Iranian claims.

Andrew Giuliani, the executive director of the White House FIFA Task Force, said on Monday that Iran had been informed in advance that they would be allowed to come into the US only on the day before the game.

“The team will be allowed to come in, match day minus one, so the day before the match,” Giuliani told CBS News.

“They’ll be asked to leave the day that the match wraps up, so the evening of the match. And they’ll be able to do that again in Los Angeles.”

He added that the procedure would be the same for Iran’s final group game against Egypt in Seattle on June 26.

Iran, who are in Group G, kicked off their campaign this week in North America after months of uncertainty over the team’s participation in the World Cup amid the US-Israel war on Iran.

Raul Rangel’s legendary saves against South Korea validate Mexico’s goalkeeper change

Raul “Tala” Rangel produced arguably the save of the tournament during Mexico’s 1-0 victory against South Korea to clinch the top spot in Group A, marking the first time they topped a World Cup group since the 2002 edition of the soccer tournament.

During the 88th minute, a cross found South Korea’s Cho Gue-Sung alone in the box, and the forward tried to head the ball in for the equaliser. However, Rangel kept the ball out with his right foot as he fell to the ground. Yang Hyun-Jun came for a rebound, but the Guadalajara native somehow raised his right hand just enough to snatch the ball out of the air before it could cross the goal line.

Rangel’s intervention sealed the deal for Mexico, which went ahead earlier in the match when Luis Romo scored off a mistake from South Korea goalkeeper Kim Seung-Gyu.

“Raul Rangel, I think he is a hero right now with the double save. Initially, it was a really good service from South Korea, but Rangel was on point,” former Mexican player Janelly Farias stated on CBS. “That’s what makes a keeper great at this level. He did exactly what he needed to do.”

Mexico head coach Javier Aguirre gets brutally honest on ‘ugly’ performance against South Korea

Despite clinching their Round of 32 spot, Mexico head coach Javier Aguirre was not fully satisfied with their performance. To Aguirre’s point, El Tricolor produced a worse expected goals (xG) than the Taeguk Warriors (0.48 to 0.67).

“It was a very close game; we ​didn’t give up a single centimeter and fought for every ball as if it were our last,” Aguirre told reporters. “It was a game where whoever made a mistake would lose, and it was them… It ​was a game to forget, but the result is one to remember.”

“We’ve been doing very well. It wasn’t a great match, but I think that our opponent didn’t let us do too much. But we still were able to score on that mistake, in addition to another two or three opportunities,” he continued.

For two decades, Mexico have relied on Guillermo Ochoa as their last line of defense. But on Thursday night, and probably for the rest of the World Cup 2026, Raul Rangel is their de facto starting No. 1, relegating Ochoa to the bench.

Watch: Arsenal and Man United target steals the show with outrageous volley and two-goal masterclass

Reported Arsenal transfer target Johan Manzambi stole the show for Switzerland last night, firing a sensational late brace to help his country secure a commanding 4-1 victory against Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The 20-year-old midfielder completely turned the match on its head after being introduced from the substitutes’ bench, solidifying his reputation as one of Europe’s most electric young prospects.

Johan Manzambi scores late brace to help Switzerland to a 4-1 win

The Group B World Cup clash at SoFi Stadium seemed destined for a tense finish until Manzambi’s introduction in the second half.

The SC Freiburg starlet broke the deadlocked match in the 74th minute, producing an outstanding, technically flawless volley that flew into the back of the net to give the Swiss a 1-0 lead.

Johan Manzambi that is TERRIFIC ?

After Ruben Vargas doubled the advantage in the 85th minute, Manzambi wasn’t done. In the 90th minute, he capped off a fluid team move orchestrated by Granit Xhaka, opening his body up to calmly steer a side-footed finish past Bosnia goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj.

Although Bosnia grabbed a late consolation goal via a thunderbolt from Enis Mahmic, a stoppage-time penalty from Xhaka put the final gloss on a stellar 4-1 win, moving Switzerland to the top of the group.

Arsenal linked in contest to sign Manzambi

Manzambi’s international heroics come amid swirling rumors regarding his future, with Arsenal heavily linked with a move for the versatile midfielder.

Previous reports have stated that the Gunners have emerged as ‘serious contenders’ to sign the Swiss international, who was recently named the UEFA Europa League Young Player of the Season after guiding Freiburg to the final.

Mikel Arteta is known to be in the market for a dynamic, energetic box-to-box midfielder to bolster his engine room.

Manzambi’s rare combination of raw pace, defensive industry, and clinical execution in the final third has made him a player in demand this summer, with reports also linking the likes of Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester United with the player.

With his stock rapidly rising on the grandest stage of the World Cup, Arsenal may have to act quickly before a multi-club bidding war drives his price tag through the roof.

Miroslav Kubek: “Heç-heçədən məyusuq”

Çexiya yığmasının baş məşqçisi Miroslav Kubek dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində CAR millisinə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ikinci turu çərçivəsində baş tutmuş Çexiya – Cənubi Afrika Respublikası matçında qalib müəyyənləşməyib – 1:1.

Miroslav Kubek matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Bu nəticədən məyusuq. Çünki yaratdığımız qol imkanlarına baxsaq, qələbəyə daha yaxın olan tərəf biz idik. Lakin bir səhvə yol verdik və bu səhv bizə qələbə bahasına başa gəldi. Buna baxmayaraq, ikinci hissədə daha yaxşı oynadığımızı düşünürəm”.

Cənubi Afrika Respublikası yığmasının baş məşqçisi Huqo Bros da oyundan sonra komandasının çıxışından razı qaldığını bildirib.

“Komandamla çox fəxr edirəm. Bu, Cənubi Afrikadır – biz gözəl futbolu sevirik, aqressiv oynayırıq və qol imkanları yaradırıq. Bəli, səhvlər etdik, amma bugünkü çıxışımızla fəxr edirəm. Çexiya güclü komandadır və heyətində çox hündürboylu futbolçular var. Buna baxmayaraq, biz çox yaxşı oynadıq.

Hesabın 1:1 olması bir qədər təəssüf doğurur. İndi isə Cənubi Koreyaya qarşı oyunda qalib gəlməliyik. Həmin matç da çox çətin olacaq. Əgər bugünkü əzmkarlıq və yanaşma ilə oynasaq, buna nail olmaq mümkündür”.

Lionel Messi’s family release statement amid rumours about father’s health

They have not gone into any specific details, as one would expect, but it’s clear that the Messi family were keen to end the speculation and gossip about the situation, which must make an already unpleasant experience a great deal more stressful.

Messi family statement in full

“The Messi family informs that Jorge Messi is currently going through a health situation.

“At this time, he is under medical supervision, recovering and progressing favorably within the condition he is experiencing.

“In light of the reports, rumors, and speculation that have circulated in recent hours, the family wishes to express its deep concern regarding the lack of sensitivity, respect, and discretion with which some individuals have treated a strictly private family matter.

“The family would also like to clarify that only Jorge’s immediate family has real and accurate information regarding his condition. Therefore, any version, statement, or information that does not come directly from the family and its official channels should not be considered valid or truthful.

“At times like these, we ask for responsibility, prudence, and humanity. A person’s health and the peace of mind of their loved ones should not be the subject of speculation or irresponsible media attention.

“We sincerely appreciate the expressions of affection, respect, and concern we have received, and we ask that Jorge’s privacy, confidentiality, and personal space—as well as that of his entire family—be respected throughout this process.

“Any relevant updates will be communicated in due course by the family and through the appropriate channels.

“Thank you for your understanding.”

Messi’s tears during World Cup win

Messi has started the 2026 World Cup on fire with a hat-trick in Argentina’s opening game against Algeria.

However, as quoted by BBC Sport, the former Barcelona forward explained why he was tearful during the game as he admitted he was being affected by something away from football.

When asked about it after the game, he said: “Why did I cry? It was something completely unrelated to football.

“I went through some difficult days, but I’m grateful to the entire delegation and my team-mates because they were always by my side, giving me a lot of strength to help me get through it.”

One imagines this was related to his father’s health, now that more information about the matter has come to light.

The 38-year-old continues to perform at an extraordinary level on the pitch and he’ll be looking to help Argentina retain the World Cup after their win in Qatar four years ago.

Fayzullayev DÇ-də yeni rekorda imza atdı

Özbəkistan millisinin üzvü Abbosbek Fayzullayev XXI əsrdə dünya çempionatında başla qol vurmuş ən bəstəboy futbolçu olub.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, 22 yaşlı yarımmüdafiəçi bunu DÇ-2026-nın K qrupunun 1-ci turunda baş tutmuş Kolumbiya ilə oyunda bacarıb.

Türkiyənin “Başakşəhər” klubuna məxsus olan oyunçunun boyu 167 sm-dir.

Əvvəlki rekord 2022-ci ildə baş tutan mundialda Qanaya qol vurmuş uruqvaylı Corcian de Arraskaetaya (173 sm) məxsus olub.

Bundan başqa, Abbosbek Fayzullayev Özbəkistan millisinin mundiallar tarixində ilk qolunun müəllifi olub.

Qarşılaşmada komandasının yeganə qolunun müəllifi olan Fayzullayev nəticədən narazı qaldıqlarını bildirib:

“Nəticəyə görə məyusuq. Heç olmasa bir xal qazana bilərdik. Uşaqlar meydanda sonadək mübarizə apardılar və bütün güclərini ortaya qoydular. İlk dəqiqələrdə həyəcan hiss olunurdu, amma ikinci hissədə yaxşı oynadıq. Rəqibin ikinci qolu bizim öz səhvimizdən sonra vuruldu. Bu, çox üzücü oldu.

Həm stadiona gəlib bizi dəstəkləyən azarkeşlərə, həm də səhər saatlarında ekran qarşısında oyunu izləyən hər kəsə təşəkkür edirəm. İndi bütün diqqətimizi qarşıda qalan iki oyuna yönəltmişik”.

Xatırladaq ki, Özbəkistan millisi Kolumbiyaya 1:3 hesabı ilə uduzub.

Yeri gəlmişkən, eyni gündə Portuqaliya millisinin yarımmüdafiəçisi Joao Neves də XXI əsrdə dünya çempionatlarında başla qol vurmuş ən qısaboylu üçüncü futbolçu kimi adını tarixə yazdırıb. O, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda Konqo Demokratik Respublikası yığmasına qarşı keçirilən oyunda dünya çempionatlarının tarixinə düşüb. Portuqaliyalı yarımmüdafiəçinin boyu 174 santimetrdir.

Harri Keyn DÇ-2026-da bir dublla rekordları sıraladı

Futbol üzrə İngiltərə yığmasının hücumçusu Harri Keyn DÇ-2026-da keçirdikləri ilk oyunda dubla imza atmaqla bir neçə ilki gerçələşdirib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikanın birgə ev sahibliyi etdiyi dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda İngiltərə yığması Xorvatiya millisinə 4:2 hesabıyla qalib gəlib.

Keyn bu görüşdə iki qol vurmaqla tarixi nailiyyətə imza atıb. 32 yaşlı futbolçu əvvəlcə matçın 12-ci dəqiqəsində penaltidən fərqlənərək dünya çempionatları tarixində ən çox penalti qolu vuran oyunçu olub. Keyn mundiallarda vurduğu penalti qollarının sayını 5-ə çatdıraraq bu göstəricidə indiyədək liderliyi bölüşdüyü Eysebio, Rob Rensenbrink, Qabriel Batistuta və Lionel Messini geridə qoyub.

Bu qol Keyn üçün dünya çempionatlarındakı 9-cu qol olub. Bununla da İngiltərə millisinin kapitanı mundial qollarının sayına görə Kristiano Ronaldonu (8 qol) arxada qoyub. O, eyni zamanda dünya çempionatlarında ən azı 9 qol vurmuş 26-cı futbolçu kimi tarixə düşüb.

Keyn ikinci qolunu da vuraraq dünya çempionatlarındakı qollarının sayını 10-a yüksəldib. Beləliklə, o, İngiltərə millisinin mundiallar tarixində ən məhsuldar futbolçusu olan Qari Linekerin rekorduna şərik çıxıb. Hər iki futbolçunun hesabında 10 qol var və onlar bu göstəriciyə 12 oyunda nail olublar.

Keyn bu mundialda növbəti qolunu vuracağı təqdirdə bu göstəricidə Linekeri geridə qoyaraq təkbaşına lider olacaq.

İngiltərə yığmasının lideri həmçinin dünya çempionatlarında 10 qol həddinə çatmış 16-cı futbolçu olub. Bundan başqa, o, Devid Bekhemdən sonra üç müxtəlif dünya çempionatında qol vurmağı bacaran ikinci ingilis futbolçu kimi tarixə düşüb.

Qeyd edək ki, Harri Keyn hazırda Almaniyanın “Bayern” klubunda çıxış edir. O, 81 qolla İngiltərə millisinin tarixində ən yaxşı bombardirdir. Hücumçu 2018-ci ildə Rusiyada keçirilmiş dünya çempionatında 6 qol vuraraq turnirin bombardiri olmuşdu.

Beləliklə, Xorvatiya ilə qarşılaşma Harri Keyn üçün təkcə uğurlu start deyil, həm də dünya çempionatları tarixində bir neçə mühüm rekordu yenilədiyi unudulmaz oyun kimi yadda qalıb.

Kannavaro tarixə düşdü

Özbəkistan milli komandasının baş məşqçisi Fabio Kannavaro dünya çempionatları tarixinə düşüb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, yığma mütəxəssisin rəhbərliyi altında mundialda Kolumbiya ilə qarşılaşıb və 1:3 hesabıyla uduzub.

Kannavaro “Qızıl top” sahibi olaraq həm futbolçu, həm də baş məşqçi kimi mundialda iştirak edən dördüncü mütəxəssis olub.

Bundan əvvəl Frants Bekkenbauer, Oleq Bloxin və Marko van Basten bunu bacarıb.

Kannavaro 2006-cı ildə “Qızıl top” qazanıb.

Özbək futbolçu: “Güclü rəqibə yaxşı müqavimət göstərdik”

Özbəkistan millisinin futbolçusu İqor Sergeyev DÇ-2026-da Kolumbiyaya uduzduqları oyunu şərh edib.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, hücumçu 1:3 hesabıyla bitən görüşlə bağlı bunları deyib:

“Başa düşürük, Kolumbiya millisi güclüdür. Amma heç-heçə edə bilərdik. Öz səhvlərimizdən qollar buraxdıq və buna görə məyusuq. Məncə, mundialda ilk oyunumuzda güclü rəqibə yaxşı müqavimət göstərdik. Hələ heç nə bitməyib, qarşıda oyunlar var”.

World Cup star being heavily scouted by Chelsea as he’s open to transfer

Chelsea are reportedly showing an interest in Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall and scouting him heavily at this summer’s World Cup.

The 20-year-old will be one to watch if you follow World Cup 2026 news as he could be a key player for the Swedish national team as they make a strong start to the tournament.

According to Simon Phillips, Bergvall is now someone being closely monitored by Chelsea as they sense he could be open to leaving Tottenham this summer.

It was a difficult season for Spurs, who only narrowly avoided relegation with a win on the final day of the Premier League season, so work is needed to fix Roberto De Zerbi’s squad.

This surely also means some sales could be likely, with a talented young player like Bergvall perhaps likely to be tempted to look elsewhere for opportunities.

Could Chelsea swoop for Lucas Bergvall?

Chelsea have been mentioned to us as suitors for Bergvall before, and it seems this is increasingly likely to be one to watch.

It will be interesting to see how the Sweden international performs at the World Cup, as that could be key to earning him a big move.

It’s not easy to flourish in this under-performing Tottenham side, but Bergvall might look better with his national side, who thrashed Tunisia 5-1 in their opening group game.

Chelsea could be a good destination for Bergvall if he does look to leave Spurs for a new challenge, with the Blues showing they’re prepared to invest in young players for the future.

On the other hand, it’s debatable if a move to Stamford Bridge would be enough of a step up, as they were also pretty poor in 2025/26, finishing trophyless and in 10th place in the Premier League, meaning they won’t be in Europe next season.

THFC need a lot of work to improve, but that’s true of their London rivals as well, so it might be more realistic to see Bergvall moving if even bigger clubs end up looking into a transfer.

Turkiye May 2026: Renault (+21.1%) monopolises podium in mediocre market (-22.5%)

First podium finish for the Renault Duster in Turkiye.

New light vehicle sales in Turkiye crash down -22.5% year-on-year in May to just 83,442 units. As a result the year-to-date tally is now off -7.4% to 453,138. Renault (+21.1%) braves the negative context to score a runaway win with 13.1% share, in line with the 13% it holds year-to-date. Volkswagen (-12%) also beats the market to stay in 2nd place with 8.8% share, distancing a cratering Fiat (-41.8%). VW ascends to #3 year-to-date as a result. Hyundai (-0.3%) and local EV maker Togg (-4.7%) resist in the Top 10 with Toyota (-17.1%) also above the market fall rate, but Opel (-45.8%), Ford (-37.5%) and Citroen (-35.1%) all implode. Below, Jeep (+258.5%), KGM (+107.1%) and Omoda & Jaecoo (+103.2%) stand out.

Renault monopolises the podium in the passenger car models ranking. The Clio (-9.7%) holds onto the top spot ahead of the Megane Sedan (-8.9%) while the Duster (+203.8%) delivers its first ever podium finish at #3. The Toyota Corolla (+17.6%) is the best of the rest at #4, distancing the VW Taigo (-36.9%) and Fiat Egea Sedan (-48.8%) both freefalling. The Hyundai Bayon (+40.6%) and Nissan Qashqai (+11.4%) are also up in the remainder of the Top 10. Further down, notice the Kia Sportage (+216%), Chery Tiggo 7 (+181.5%), Renault Austral (+166.5%) and VW Tiguan (+148.9%). The new Togg T10F is back up four spots on last month to #13 and ranks #11 YTD.

Italy legend Maldini reacts to Messi’s hat-trick with six-word message – picture

Paolo Maldini reacts to Lionel Messi’s hat-trick with a social media message: ‘No words needed, simply the best.’

Argentine legend Messi scored three goals in the Albiceleste’s 2026 World Cup debut against Algeria on Wednesday, leaving ex-Milan and Italy star Maldini impressed.

The legendary defender reacted to Messi’s latest World Cup display with an Instagram story: “No words needed, simply the best,” Maldini wrote, posting a picture of the Argentine superstar’s goal celebration.

Maldini participated in four World Cups, finishing 3rd in 1990 and second in 1994, when Italy lost the final on penalties to Brazil.

Video: Thierry Henry slams selfish Cristiano Ronaldo antics as Portugal start World Cup with draw

Arsenal and France legend Thierry Henry criticised Cristiano Ronaldo for seeming more focused on getting goals for himself than for his team as Portugal drew with DR Congo yesterday.

The 41-year-old is still going strong despite his age, with his performances with Al Nassr in the Saudi Pro League getting him close to a remarkable 1000 career goals.

Still, it wasn’t Ronaldo’s day yesterday as Portugal could only draw 1-1 with Congo in a disappointing start to their 2026 World Cup campaign.

As well as missing some chances, it also seemed like Ronaldo was getting in the way of his teammates due to a strong desire to be on the scoresheet himself, as highlighted by Henry in the video clip below…

Really good analysis from Henry. This is the Ronaldo issue right now.

He's playing as a 9, but he's never been a 9 and he's not acting as a 9. Not giving Portugal those traits and it hurt them today. pic.twitter.com/yjSaOK2J5J

— Marc Geschwind (@MarcGeschwind) June 17, 2026

“One thing that’s important … the team needs to score, not you need to score,” Henry said.

“Cristiano Ronaldo has been in this situation multiple times – if you make the run here then you make the defender take a decision, but because he wants to score he goes into the path of Bruno Fernandes.”

Henry added that if Ronaldo had instead made the run into the six yard box, the defender would have had to follow him, leaving space for Fernandes.

The Frenchman even said you could see the frustrated reaction of his teammates.

Cristiano Ronaldo struggles as Lionel Messi shines at World Cup

It’s just one game, but you just know there are going to be the usual big debates about Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, with the latter making a dream start to the World Cup.

While Ronaldo looked like a weak link for Portugal in their draw with Congo, Messi was in unplayable form to hit a hat-trick for Argentina in their win against Algeria.

Messi won the World Cup with Argentina in 2022, scoring twice in the final victory over France, while Ronaldo has never won this competition.

This year will surely be Ronaldo’s last chance to do so, but at the moment there are surely serious questions about if he should even be starting games for his country anymore.

Messi, meanwhile, looks like he’s still good enough to guide Argentina to glory again.

“They both stepped up” – Ian Wright singles out England duo for praise in “brilliant” World Cup win

Former Arsenal and England star Ian Wright praised Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham as the key players that stepped up for the national team last night.

For those who weren’t following the World Cup live, England started their campaign with an impressive performance to beat Croatia 4-2.

Wright was really pleased with the “brilliant” performance and style of play from England as they picked up an important three points from what looks, on paper at least, like being the toughest game in their group.

Kane scored twice on the night and Bellingham also got an important goal to put the Three Lions back in front after Croatia had twice pegged them back.

Speaking after the game, Wright said it will be significant for England this summer if those two players can continue to perform at that high level.

Ian Wright praises Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham

“What we saw tonight is they both (Kane and Bellingham) stepped up and I’m sure when the games get tougher they will do that again,” the pundit said on ITV, as quoted by the Metro.

“We’ve got to make sure we are funnelling it into those two because they will deliver, they both will deliver.

“It’s been a long time since I watched an England team going forward with as much gusto as we saw from them tonight. It was brilliant.

“Croatia weren’t as good as we thought they might be given their experience but we beat them quite comfortably which was really promising.”

Who else impressed for England?

England can take a lot of positives from last night’s game, with Kane and Bellingham perhaps the stand-out stars, but with the likes of Declan Rice and Noni Madueke also doing an impressive job.

Reece James and Nico O’Reilly also showed a lot of promise as the two full-backs, but the defence probably should have done more to prevent Croatia’s goals, even if the first one in particular was a fantastic finish.

Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka impressed off the bench, and that kind of depth is hugely encouraging for Thomas Tuchel, though perhaps Anthony Gordon and Elliot Anderson could’ve done more.

Kannavaro: “Bura Özbəkistanı tanıtmaq üçün gəlmişik”

Özbəkistan yığmasının baş məşqçisi Fabio Kannavaro dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Kolumbiyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, tarixində ilk dəfə mundiala qatılmış özbəklər DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda qarşılaşdığı Kolumbiyaya 1:3 hesabıyla məğlub olublar.

Fabio Kannavaro məğlubiyyətdən sonra fikirlərini bölüşüb:

“Maraqlı oyun alındı. İkinci hissədə matçın gedişatını dəyişə bildik. Sol cinah vasitəsilə təhlükəli hücumlar qurur, oyuna nəzarəti ələ almağa çalışırdıq.

Hər şeydən əvvəl biz bura Özbəkistanı bütün dünyaya müsbət tərəfdən göstərmək üçün gəlmişik. Mən komandaya həmişə deyirəm ki, matç boyu fəal və cəsarətli oynamaq lazımdır. Kolumbiya kimi komandaya qarşı top olmadan oynamaq asan deyil.

Ümumilikdə ikinci hissədə yaxşı çıxış etdik, amma təəssüf ki, qollar buraxdıq. Bu oyunu xatırlayacağıq, çünki o, tarixidir. Biz dünya çempionatındayıq. Deyə bilərəm ki, bu qarşılaşma bizim üçün faydalı oldu. Səhvlərimiz var idi və onların üzərində işləyəcəyik.

Futbolçularımla fəxr edirəm. Onlar yaxşı oynadılar. Bu gün çox çətin matç idi. Belə bir stadionda, belə azarkeşlər qarşısında oynamaq asan deyil. Amma bu, eyni zamanda əlavə motivasiya da verə bilər”.

Kolumbiya yığmasının baş məşqçisi Nestor Lorenso isə qələbəni şərh edib:

“Bizi çox çətin oyunun gözlədiyini bilirdik. Qələbə böyük sevincdir. Lakin bir çox futbolçular yorğun təsir bağışlayırdılar. Bu, həm emosional, həm də fiziki gərginliklə bağlı idi.

Bundan əlavə, müəyyən çətinliklər yaşayırdıq, çünki hamı bizdən yalnız inamlı qələbə gözləyirdi. Düşünürəm ki, Özbəkistan yığmasının gücünü həqiqətən yalnız məşqçilər korpusu tam dərk edirdi”.

DÇ-2026: Özbəkistan debüt matçında məğlub oldu

Amerika Birləşmiş Ştatları (ABŞ), Kanada və Meksikada təşkil edilmiş futbol üzrə sayca 23-cü dünya çempionatı (DÇ-2026) davam edir.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, bu gün daha bir oyun baş tutub.

Mundialın növbəti matçında debütant Özbəkistan millisi Kolumbiya yığması üz-üzə gəlib. Mexikoda (Meksika) təşkil edilmiş K qrupunun oyununda 4 qol qeydə alınıb. Yekunda qələbəni bayram edən tərəf Kolumbiya millisi olub.

Kolumbiyanın qollarını Daniel Munyos (40), Luis Dias (65) və Xaminton Kampas (90+9) vurublar. Özbəkistan yığmasında isə Abbosbek Fayzullayev (60) fərqlənən oyunçu olub.

Xatırladaq ki, bu qrupun Portuqaliya – Konqo Demokratik Respublikası oyunu 1:1 hesablı heç-heçə ilə başa çatmışdı.

Karlos Keyroş: “Bu oyunu ağlımız sayəsində qazandıq”

Qana yığmasının baş məşqçisi Karlos Keyroş dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Panama yığmasına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turu çərçivəsində baş tutmuş bu görüşdə Qana yığması rəqibi üzərində 1:0 hesablı qələbəyə sevinib.

Karlos Keyroş matçdan sonra qələbəni belə şərh edib:

“Əvvəlcə səbir göstərməli olduq, döyüşçülər kimi mübarizə apardıq. Bu oyunu ağlımız sayəsində qazandıq.

Panama futbol oynamağı bacaran komandadır. Bilirdik ki, onlar oyuna nəzarət etməyə çalışacaqlar. Bizim strategiyamız isə təşəbbüsü onlara vermək və bundan faydalanmaq idi”.

Panama yığmasının baş məşqçisi Tomas Kristiansen də matçdan sonra fikirlərini bölüşüb:

“Bu nəticə ağrılıdır, çünki Panama yığması daha artığına layiq idi. Birinci hissədə oyuna nəzarət edirdik, lakin ikinci hissədə rəqibin üslubunda oynamağa başladıq. Biz bunu istəmirdik, amma indi peşman olmağın vaxtı deyil. Qarşıda hələ iki oyunumuz var. Pley-off mərhələsinə yüksəlmək istəyiriksə, Xorvatiya ilə oyunda yaxşı nəticə əldə etməliyik.

Qanaya məğlubiyyətdən nəticə çıxarmalıyıq. Dünya çempionatında səhvlər çox baha başa gəlir. Xorvatiya ilə oyunda çəkinməyəcəyik. Panamanın məğlub edilməsinin nə qədər çətin olduğunu göstərmək istəyirik və son nəfəsimizə qədər mübarizə aparacağıq”.

Roderik Miller DÇ-2026-da ilk oyunu kənardan izlədi

Panama millisinin və “Turan Tovuz”un mərkəz müdafiəçisi Roderik Miller DÇ-2026-da ilk turun oyununda iştirak şansı qazanmayıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, ABŞ, Kanada və Meksikanın birgə ev sahibliyi etdiyi DÇ-2026-nın L qrupunda Qana və Panama milliləri üz-üzə gəliblər.

Torontoda keçirilmiş qarşılaşma Qananın 1:0 hesablı qələbəsi ilə başa çatıb. Matçın böyük hissəsi qarşılıqlı hücumlar şəraitində keçsə də, komandalar yaranan imkanlardan istifadə edə bilməyiblər. Qarşılaşmanın taleyi əlavə olunmuş vaxtda həll edilib. Çaleb Yirenkyi 90+5-ci dəqiqədə fərqlənərək Qanaya üç xal qazandırıb.

Miller matçın iştirakçısı olmayıb. Panamanın mərkəz müdafiəçisi sonadək ehtiyat oyunçular skamyasında əyləşib.

Xatırladaq ki, Miller Panama millisinin DÇ-2026 üçün 26 nəfərlik yekun heyətində yer alıb. Bununla da Miller Azərbaycan Premyer Liqasında çıxış edərək dünya çempionatına dəvət almış ilk futbolçu kimi tarixə düşüb.

Qeyd edək ki, Panama millisi dünya çempionatında Xorvatiya, İngiltərə və Qana yığmaları ilə birgə L qrupunda mübarizə aparır.

Roderik Miller “Turan Tovuz”a 2023-cü ilin mart ayında transfer olunub. O, indiyə qədər Tovuz təmsilçisinin heyətində 80 oyuna çıxıb, 10 qola imza atıb, 4 məhsuldar ötürmə müəllifi olub.

Miller peşəkar karyerasına Panamanın “San Fransisko” komandasında başlayıb. Müdafiəçi Meksikanın “Venados”, Kolumbiyanın “Atletiko Nasional”, Portuqaliyanın “Feyrense”, Qazaxıstanın “Okjetpes”, Perunun “Karlos Steyn”, İraqın “Əl-Quva” və “Əl-Mina” klublarında legioner həyatı yaşayıb.

Roderik Panama millisində 48 oyun keçirib, 2 qola imza atıb, 1 assist müəllifi olub. O, Panamanın U-20 və U-23 yığmalarında da oynayıb.

Tomas Tuxel: “Futbolçuların reaksiyası xoşuma gəldi”

İngiltərə yığmasının baş məşqçisi Tomas Tuxel dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Xorvatiyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turu çərçivəsində üz-üzə gəlmiş komandaların görüşündə İngiltərə millisi 4:2 hesablı qələbəyə sevinib.

Tomas Tuxel matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Yaxşı reaksiya göstərdik. Birinci hissə bizim üçün bir qədər çətin keçdi. Komandada müəyyən gərginlik hiss olunurdu. Verdiyimiz qərarlar daha ehtiyatlı oynamaq və geri çəkilmək istəyi ilə bağlı idi. Oyunun ritmini tapmaqda çətinlik çəkirdik və rəqibin müdafiəsindəki boşluqlardan istifadə etmək üçün bizə özünəinam çatmırdı.

Statistikaya baxdım: birinci hissədə ikili mübarizələrin cəmi 33 faizini, ikinci hissədə isə 73 faizini qazanmışıq. Deməli, topsuz oyunda da ilk hissədə kifayət qədər yaxşı deyildik, lazımi fədakarlığı göstərmirdik.

İkinci hissədə futbolçuların reaksiyası xoşuma gəldi. Bu emosional bir qarşılaşma idi, meydanda çoxlu hisslər yaşanırdı. Oyunun ritminə düşmək üçün bizə müəyyən vaxt lazım oldu”.

Xorvatiya yığmasının baş məşqçisi Zlatko Daliç isə uduzduqları oyundan sonra komandasının çıxışını tənqid edib:

“İkinci hissəni çox pis keçirdik. Birinci hissədə iki qolu standart vəziyyətlərdən buraxdıq, onlardan biri penalti idi. Bəzi məqamlarda səhvlərə yol verdik.

Üçüncü qolu uzun ötürmədən sonra buraxdıq və həmin andan etibarən oyuna qayıtmağın nə qədər çətin olduğunu gördük. Biz pis reaksiya verdik və oyunumuzu yenidən düzgün qura bilmədik”.

Arsenal star provides injury update after appearing to limp off in England’s win vs Croatia

Declan Rice has insisted he only went off as a precaution in England’s 4-2 win over Croatia in their opening World Cup 2026 group game.

Arsenal and England fans will no doubt have been concerned to see the midfielder appearing to limp off when he was subbed by Thomas Tuchel with 20 minutes to go.

World Cup news has only really been positive for England so far, with the team avoiding injuries to key players and gelling really well in an impressive victory against a tough opponent in Croatia last night.

And it seems Rice’s injury is not a major concern either, with the 27-year-old insisting he’s fine and he’ll be back for the next game against Ghana.

Speaking after the game, as quoted by the Metro, Rice sounded upbeat and explained that he only went off as a precaution due to carrying a minor niggle for some time.

“All good, good as gold,” Rice said to ITV.

“Just what I’ve been nursing probably in the second half of the season, little neural pains here and there, but I’m all good.

“All fine, just precaution and I’ll be back out there against Ghana.”

Declan Rice delivers again with assist and solid display

Rice is Mr Reliable for club and country, and WhoScored had him down as one of England’s top performers in last night’s win, with a 7.6/10 rating.

The Gunners midfielder always plays with great energy, doing his defensive work whilst also driving the team forward with his range of passing and ball-carrying ability.

On top of that, he picked up an assist with one of his trademark corner kick deliveries, which Harry Kane headed in.

Needless to say, Rice is not a player England would want to be without for long, so it was probably sensible from Tuchel to remove him early just to be on the safe side.

DÇ-2026: birinci turdan önə çıxanlar

Dünya çempionatında qrup mərhələsinin birinci turu başa çatıb.

Futbolpress.az xəbər verir ki, hər qrupda 2, ümumilikdə 24 oyun baş tutub. I turda vurulan qol sayı 75-dir.

Lionel Messinin het-triki, Meksika ilə CAR arasındakı açılış matçında üç qırmızı vərəqənin damğa vurduğu birinci turda üç futbolçu da avtoqolla yadda qalıb.

Meydan sahibləri ABŞ və Meksika qələbə qazanıb, Kanada isə bosniyalılarla “sülh”ə razılaşıb.

İlk turda 9 heç-heçə qeydə alınıb. Mundialın ilk sürprizinə Qətər yığması imza atıb. Komanda İsveçrə ilə matçda son dəqiqə qolu ilə məğlubiyyətdən qaçıb.

Digər sensasiya favorit İspaniyanın oyununda olub. “Buğalar” tarixində ilk dəfə mundialda iştirak edən Kabo Verdeyə qalib gələ bilməyib.

Portuqaliya millisi də uğursuz start verib. Kriştiano Ronaldolu portuqallar Konqo ilə matçda qələbə qazana bilməyib və bir xalla başlayıb.

İlk turun “adamı” isə Vozinyadır. Kabo Verde yığmasının qapıçısı ispanlara qarşı “divar” olub və çıxışı böyük ajiotaj yaradıb. Məhz bu oyundan sonra Vozinyanın instaqramda izləyici sayı 9 milyon artıb.

İkinci tura bu gün start veriləcək. Birinci matçda İsveçrə ilə Bosniya və Herseqovina münasibətlərinə aydınlıq gətirəcək.

The message resonated immediately with England’s players. The team responded in emphatic fashion after the restart.

Just two minutes into the second half, Jude Bellingham latched onto a superb pass from Elliot Anderson, drove into the penalty area and fired home with his right foot to restore England’s lead at 3-2.

Perfect start for England to the World Cup 2026

After Bellingham restored the lead, Croatia goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic made a string of brilliant saves before substitute Rashford sealed the deal five minutes from the end.

It was the World Cup debut of Thomas Tuchel as England manager, and he could not have scripted a better opening statement.

The brace saw him now tied with Gary Lineker as England’s all-time leading World Cup scorer with 10 goals in 12 games

England will next face Ghana on Tuesday 23rd June before taking on Panama on Saturday 27th June

Given how they performed tonight, they will be expected to cruise past to the next round of the tournament.

Kristiano Ronaldo DÇ-2026-da bir neçə tarixi rekorda imza atdı

Portuqaliya millisinin hücumçusu Kristiano Ronaldo DÇ-2026-da Konqo DR ilə oyunda meydana çıxmaqla daha bir neçə rekorda imza atıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, mundialın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunun bu görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib – 1:1.

Ronaldo start heyətində meydana çıxmaqla futbol tarixinə daha bir neçə rekord əlavə edib. Portuqal ulduz ilk növbədə, dünya çempionatlarının final mərhələsində iştirak edən futbolçular arasında xüsusi bir göstəriciyə nail olub. O, karyerasında altıncı dünya çempionatında meydana çıxaraq bu göstəricidə yalnız Lionel Messi ilə eyni səviyyəyə yüksəlib. Beləliklə, Ronaldo və Messi dünya çempionatlarının altı final mərhələsində iştirak edən yeganə futbolçular olublar.

Konqo DR ilə qarşılaşma Ronaldonun dünya çempionatlarındakı 23-cü oyunu kimi tarixə düşüb. Bu göstərici ilə o, əfsanəvi italiyalı müdafiəçi Paolo Maldini ilə bərabərləşərək turnir tarixində ən çox oyun keçirən futbolçular siyahısında dördüncü pilləyə yüksəlib. Ondan yuxarıda yalnız Messi (27 oyun), Lotar Matteus (25 oyun) və Miroslav Kloze (24 oyun) qərarlaşıblar.

41 yaşlı portuqaliyalı daha bir mühüm nailiyyətə imza atıb. O, dünya çempionatlarında meydana çıxan ən yaşlı avropalı futbolçu olub. Bununla da Ronaldo 1986-cı ildə son dünya çempionatı oyununu 41 yaşında keçirmiş Şimali İrlandiya yığmasının sabiq qapıçısı Pat Jenninqsin rekordunu geridə qoyub.

Bununla yanaşı, Ronaldo dünya çempionatları tarixində start heyətində meydana çıxan ən yaşlı meydan oyunçusu rekordunu da yeniləyib. Qarşılaşma zamanı onun yaşı 41 il 132 gün idi. Bu göstəricidə onu yalnız 2018-ci il mundialında 45 yaş 161 günündə start heyətində meydana çıxmış misirli qapıçı Essam El-Hadari qabaqlayır.

Xatırladaq ki, 41 yaşlı Ronaldo karyerası ərzində:

5 dəfə UEFA Çempionlar Liqasının qalibi olub;
Avropa çempionu adını qazanıb;
2 dəfə UEFA Millətlər Liqasını qazanıb;
Milli komandalar tarixinin ən məhsuldar bombardiridir;
Avropa çempionatları, UEFA Çempionlar Liqası və klublararası dünya çempionatlarının qol rekordlarına sahibdir;
5 dəfə “Qızıl top” mükafatını qazanıb.

Hazırda Səudiyyə Ərəbistanının “Əl-Nəsr” klubunda çıxış edən Ronaldo karyerası ərzində “Sportinq”, “Mançester Yunayted”, “Yuventus” və “Real” kimi nəhəng klubların formasını geyinib.

Roberto Martines: “Oyunumuza tənqidi yanaşlamalıyıq”

Portuqaliya millisinin baş məşqçisi Roberto Martines dünya çempionatında Konqo Demokratik Respublikasına qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turu çərçivəsində üz-üzə gəlmiş bu komandaların görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib – 1:1.

Portuqaliya hesabı erkən açsa da, üstünlüyünü qoruya bilməyib. Roberto Martines matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Oyuna çox yaxşı və düzgün başladıq. Lakin erkən vurduğumuz qol müəyyən mənada hücumdakı sonrakı fəaliyyətimizə mənfi təsir göstərdi. Biz həddindən artıq topa nəzarət etməyə fokuslandıq və rəqibin cərimə meydançasına daxil olmaqda çətinlik çəkməyə başladıq. Bu isə Konqo DR futbolçularına yenidən təşkilatlanmaq imkanı verdi.

Fasilədən dərhal əvvəl buraxdığımız qol standart vəziyyətdən vuruldu. Biz çox yaxşı bilirdik ki, bu, fiziki cəhətdən güclü və standart vəziyyətlərdən əla istifadə edən komandadır. Amma dünya çempionatının səviyyəsi məhz budur. İndi hər şeyi ətraflı təhlil etməliyik, lakin komandanın münasibəti və yanaşması mənim xoşuma gəldi.

Konqonun qolu matçın psixoloji baxımdan bizim üçün ən çətin anında gəldi. Buna baxmayaraq, futbolçular buraxılan qola yaxşı reaksiya verdilər. Onların oyuna münasibəti nümunəvi idi.

Bəli, nümayiş etdirdiyimiz futbolun yekun keyfiyyətindən tam razı qalmadıq. Amma oyunçuların son saniyəyə qədər meydanda nələr qurmağa çalışdıqlarından və göstərdikləri əzmkarlıqdan məmnunam. Bunların hamısı inkişaf prosesinin bir hissəsidir.

Qarşıda bizi daha iki çox vacib qrup oyunu gözləyir. Öz çıxışımızı tənqidi şəkildə qiymətləndirməliyik və bunu mütləq edəcəyik. Bu qarşılaşma bir daha göstərdi ki, dünya çempionatında asan oyun olmur. Portuqaliya oyundan oyuna inkişaf etməli və güclənməlidir”.

Konqo Demokratik Respublikası yığmasının baş məşqçisi Sebastyan Desabre isə heç-heçəyə belə şərh verib:

“Konqo Demokratik Respublikası yığmasının dünya çempionatında ilk xalını qazanması və ilk qolunu vurması bizim üçün böyük qürur mənbəyidir. Futbolçular inanılmaz fədakarlıq və özlərini oyuna tam həsr etmə nümayiş etdirdilər. Oyun planını tam olaraq nəzərdə tutduğumuz kimi yerinə yetirdik, standart vəziyyətdən qol vurduq və açığını desəm, futbolçularımla çox qürur duyuram. Onlar Konqonu layiqincə təmsil etdilər və bütün ölkə buna layiqdir”.

Watch: €50m Tottenham & Aston Villa target scores stunning goal vs England

Croatia have equalised against England courtesy of a wonder goal from Martin Baturina.

Harry Kane gave his side the lead early in the game, after Luka Modric brought down Noni Madueke inside the box.

The England captain stood up but saw his initial penalty saved. However, he was given a second chance by the referee due to the keeper being off the line and made no mistake in the second time of asking.

However, Croatia responded not too long after with Baturina scoring a peach of a goal to make it 1-1.

The Como star linked with a move to the Premier League struck the ball from outside the box, straight in to the top left corner.

Jordan Pickford just about got a hand to it but not enough to keep it out.

It's a cracking hit!

Tottenham and Aston Villa have reportedly made a €50m bid for Martin Baturina

Baturina’s world-class impact on the international stage comes amid intense speculation regarding his domestic future.

Reports indicate that Tottenham and Aston Villa have reportedly made a €50m bid for Martin Baturina to tempt Serie A outfit Como into a summer sale.

Spurs’ bid has been reported by Portuguese journalist Pedro Almeida who reported earlier in June that the North London club has presented an offer around €50m to Como for Baturina.

And reports of Aston Villa’s bid for the player comes from Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport (via Sport Witness), who reported that Unai Emery’s side have bid in the region of €50m and €55m for the player.

Leeds have also been linked with the player in the past.

Robero De Zerbi’s side are busy rebuilding the squad, already signing the likes of Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi. Spurs are also closing in on a deal for Jan Paul van Hecke.

Adding Baturina would no doubt be a quality signing for the club, with the club looking to bolster its midfield this summer.

Watch: Harry Kane gives England lead vs Croatia after retaken penalty drama

Harry Kane has given England an early lead vs Croatia, scoring from the spot to make it 1-0.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic brutally shuts down Alexi Lalas live on air after France criticism

Zlatan Ibrahimovic didn’t hold back in indirectly calling Alexi Lalas ignorant for his comments about France.

The legendary Swedish striker, serving as a marquee analyst for FOX Sports during the World Cup 2026, delivered a ruthless live-television shutdown that instantly went viral across social media, highlighting the growing tension on the network’s star-studded studio set.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic calls Alexi Lalas ignorant in front of him

The heated exchange ignited during the post-match breakdown of France’s tournament opener.

Assessing Les Bleus’ initial tactical struggles, former USMNT defender Alexi Lalas called France arrogant for their first-half performance against Senegal before praising them for their response in the second half.

Lalas suggested that if the French team was behaving with an air of arrogance, they at least proved they could back it up with their eventual tactical dominance.

Sitting directly next to him, Ibrahimovic grew visibly unimpressed. Turning his attention to Lalas, the former AC Milan and PSG forward completely dismissed the premise of the critique with trademark bluntness.

Ibrahimovic responded saying, “It’s not arrogance, it’s confidence. Ignorant people call it arrogance, intelligent people say it’s confidence.”

The sharp rejoinder left the rest of the broadcast panel, including fellow legendary striker Thierry Henry, looking stunned as host Rebecca Lowe quickly moved to steer the program forward.

France beat Senegal 3-1 to kick off World Cup defence

On the pitch, the drama was just as intense as France beat Senegal 3-1 to kick off their World Cup defence.

The reigning champions endured a heavily contested first half where a highly physical Senegal side looked far more threatening, routinely exposing gaps in the French midfield.

However, the second half belonged entirely to Les Bleus. Led by a commanding performance from captain Kylian Mbappe, the French clinical frontline completely overwhelmed the African nation.

The reigning titleholders flipped the switch with three second-half goals, proving that their calm composure was indeed supreme confidence rather than complacency.

Tarixə düşən afrikalı

DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin I turunda Fransa yığmasına qol vuran Seneqal yığmasının üzvü İbrahim Mbaye tarixə düşüb.

Futbolpress.az FIFA-ya istinadən xəbər verir ki, o, dünya çempionatlarında qol vuran ən gənc afrikalı futbolçu olub.

Mbaye bunu 18 yaş 143 günlüyündə bacarıb.

Əvvəlki rekordçu Mussa Vaqe idi. O, 2018 mundialında 18 yaşında qol vurmuşdu.

Marko Arnautoviç Avstriya millisində daha bir rekorda imza atdı

DÇ-2026-nın final mərhələsinin ilk turunun İordaniya ilə oyunu Avstriya yığmasının hücumçusu Marko Arnautoviç üçün əlamətdar olub.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, təcrübəli futbolçu 3:1 hesabıyla qalib gəldikləri bu oyunda komandasının sonuncu qoluna imza atıb.

Bununla da o, Avstriya yığmasının rekordçusuna çevrilib. Belə ki, Marko
mundiallar tarixində qol vurmuş ən yaşlı avstriyalı futbolçu ünvanını əldə edib. FIFA-nın yaydığı məlumata görə, təcrübəli hücumçu bu rekordu 37 yaş 59 günlüyündə rəsmiləşdirib. O, bununla da uzunmüddətli rekordu yeniləyib. Əvvəlki rekord DÇ-1998-də Kamerun yığmasına qarşı matçda (1:1) bərabərlik qolunu vurmuş Toni Polsterə məxsus idi. Sözügedən futbolçu 34 yaş 93 günlüyündə fərqlənmişdi.

Xatırladaq ki, Marko Arnautoviç hazırda Serbiyanın “Srvena Zvezda” klubunda çıxış edir. 36 yaşlı forvard 2025-ci ilin yayında İtaliyanın “İnter” klubundan azad agent kimi ayrılaraq Serbiya təmsilçisi ilə 2 illik (2027-ci ilin 30 iyununa kimi) müqavilə imzalayıb. O, bu komandanın heyətində 32 oyuna çıxıb, 10 qol və 9 məhsuldar ötürmə müəllifi olub.

Arnautoviç daha əvvəl İtaliyada “İnter” və “Bolonya”nın, Niderlandda “Tvente”nin, Almaniyada “Verder”in, İngiltərədə “Vest Hem” və “Stok Siti”nin, Çində “Şanxay SİPQ” komandasının da formasını geyinib.

Marko Arnautoviç 2008-ci ilin oktyabr ayında debüt etdiyi Avstriya yığmasında 134 oyun keçirib, 48 qol vurub, 30 məhsuldar ötürmə verib.

“Transfermarkt” internet-portalı 37 yaşlı hücumçunun transfer dəyərini 2 milyon avro məbləğində qiymətləndirir.

İbrahim Mbaye – DÇ-də qol vuran ən gənc afrikalı futbolçu!

DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin 1-ci turunda Fransa yığmasına qol vuran Seneqal milli komandasının üzvü İbrahim Mbaye tarixə düşüb.

Arena.az bu barədə FIFA-ya istinadən xəbər verir.

Belə ki, o, dünya çempionatlarında qol vurmuş ən gənc afrikalı futbolçu olub. Mbaye 18 yaş 143 günlüyündə fərqlənib.

Qeyd edək ki, I qrupunun matçında Fransa yığması Seneqalı 3:1 hesabı ilə məğlub edib. Gənc futbolçu komandasının yeganə qolunu qarşılaşmanın 90+5-ci dəqiqəsində vurub.

İbrahim Mbaye Fransa nəhəngi PSJ-nin şərəfini qoruyur. 18 yaşlı futbolçu 2018-ci ildən Paris klubunun sistemindədir. İstedadlı vinger PSJ-nin əsas komandasında indiyə qədər 42 oyuna çıxıb, 4 qol vurub, 4 məhsuldar ötürmə verib.

İbrahim vaxtilə Fransanın U-16, U-17, U-18 və U-20 yığmalarında oynasa da, 2025-ci ildən Seneqalın əsas millisində forma geyinir. Yeniyetmə futbolçu bu komandanın heyətində 12 oyuna çıxıb, 4 qol vurub, 5 məhsuldar ötürmə verib.

Harry Maguire explains his theory on why quiet Chelsea centre-back was called up ahead of him

Trevoh Chalobah has been called up to the England squad, while Harry Maguire has remained out of the picture.

If you enjoy CaughtOffside coverage and want to see more of it, add us as a preferred source on Google to make us a favourite and see more of our content.

After years as a key figure for Gareth Southgate’s England team, most people were expecting Harry Maguire to get a callup for England this summer. He didn’t get one.

Then they will have been expecting him to get a callup to replace the injured Tino Livramento last week. He didn’t get that either.

The defender has explained why he thought Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah was preferred to him or to Trent Alexander-Arnold as an emergency callup.

No fuss Chalobah gets the nod

“When someone drops out like that, I do believe that as a squad, you need to call someone up with the minimum of fuss. No real media attention to it, no disruption to the camp,” Maguire said while working as a pundit for the Rest is Football.

“I don’t think Trent would have ever been called up; when it’s a big game, all the questions would have been about him. If he called me up, it would be about me,” the experienced England defender added.

“Luke Shaw is the same; we’ve been to previous tournaments, we play for big clubs. But congratulations to Trevoh, I hope he does well and has an impact on the squad,” he summarised, on Chalobah’s addition.

Chalobah is really the perfect player for these circumstances, then. He’s about as low profile as an England player could be. He’s not likely to play, he’s not going to cause trouble, he’s not going to grab headlines.

He’s going to go and work hard, bring some positive energy and be ready if the team need to call on him. It’s a great reward for some impressively consistent years in the Premier League.

In other news…

Hayden Hackney has been a big name in the Championship for a while – it looks like this year could be the moment he gets his Premier League move.

The Premier League’s top teams are all closing in on one very interesting option who has yet to agree a new deal at his current club.

Lionel Messi bir het-triklə DÇ-də rekordları alt-üst etdi

Futbol üzrə Argentina milli komandasının ulduz hücumçusu Lionel Messi dünya çempionatlarında yeni rekordlara imza atıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, 38 yaşlı futbolçu DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda Əlcəzairə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunda meydana çıxmaqla mundiallarda 6 dəfə iştirak etmiş ilk oyunçu olub.

Messi meydana çıxması ilə dünya çempionatları tarixində keçirdiyi oyunların sayını da 27-yə çatdıraraq rekordu yeniləyib. Hələ karyerasını davam etdirən futbolçular arasında bu göstəricidə ona ən yaxın olan Kristiano Ronaldo 22 oyunla ikinci yerdə qərarlaşıb.

Messi Əlcəzairlə oyunda het-trik edərək dünya çempionatları tarixinin ən yaxşı bombardirləri siyahısında almaniyalı Miroslav Klozeyə çatıb. O, görüşün 17-ci, 60-cı və 76-cı dəqiqələrində fərqlənməklə mundiallarda vurduğu qolların sayı 16-ya çatdırıb.

Messi Əlcəzairlə görüşdə qol vurmaqla dünya çempionatlarında daha bir rekorda imza atıb. 38 yaşlı forvard mundial tarixində fərqli rəqiblərə ən çox qol vurmuş futbolçu olub. O, ümumilikdə 11 müxtəlif milli komandanın qapısına yol tapıb və bu göstəricidə Kristiano Ronaldo, Yurgen Klinsmann və Miroslav Kloze kimi əfsanələri geridə qoyub.

Bundan başqa, Messi dünya çempionatları tarixində qol vuran üçüncü ən yaşlı oyunçu, bu turnirin tarixində het-trik edən ən yaşlı oyunçu olub.

38 yaşlı hücumçu matçın 17-ci dəqiqəsində cərimə meydançasının kənarından möhtəşəm qola imza atıb. Bu, onun dünya çempionatları tarixində cərimə meydançasından kənardan vurduğu 5-ci qol olub. Bununla da Messi dünya çempionatı tarixində cərimə meydançasının xaricindən ən çox qol vuran braziliyalı əfsanəvi oyunçu Rivelinonun rekordunu təkrarlayıb.

Qeyd edək ki, Lionel Messi hazırda ABŞ klubu “İnter Mayami”də çıxış edir. O, Argentina millisinin heyətində 2022-ci ildə dünya çempionu olub, 2014-cü ildə isə gümüş medal qazanıb. Futbolçu 8 dəfə “Qızıl top” mükafatına layiq görülərək bu göstəricidə də rekord sahibidir.

Bellingham or Rogers? How England could line up for World Cup 2026 opener vs Croatia

The big team news questions mainly surround Jude Bellingham or Morgan Rogers for the attacking midfield role, while Thomas Tuchel also has decisions to make in central defence, and wide on the left.

While we think there’s a serious case for Tuchel to go for form over names by picking Aston Villa star Rogers over Real Madrid Galactico Bellingham, it’s perhaps hard to imagine the Three Lions boss taking a big gamble like that for the toughest opponent in the group.

Likewise, we suspect Tuchel will also opt for experience at the back, with John Stones over Ezri Konsa alongside Marc Guehi in central defence.

England predicted line up to take on Croatia

See below for prediction for how England could line up against Croatia this evening…

England look strong with this line up, but there’s always the possibility that Bukayo Saka’s fitness could be a problem, perhaps meaning a starting spot for Noni Madueke.

Saka has been a world class performer for Arsenal and England down the years, but he has had a few more fitness problems after playing so many games in recent times.

On the other flank, Anthony Gordon has done well after recently becoming more of a key player for England, but Marcus Rashford also goes into this tournament in fine form after a strong loan spell at Barcelona.

The Manchester United outcast is another player who might also be worth choosing for his experience, but we expect Gordon is slightly ahead in the pecking order right now due to his direct style, pace, and work-rate.

The likes of Harry Kane and Declan Rice are surely certain to start whatever happens, but it will be interesting to see if they play the full 90 minutes in the blistering heat that has been touted as a bit of an issue in the US.

What do you make of the possible England line up and are you confident about the game? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

“We’re very similar” – Lionel Messi makes comparison with tennis legend

Lionel Messi announced his presence at the 2026 World Cup in dramatic fashion on Wednesday night, scoring all three goals in their win over Algeria. The 38-year-old scored his first ever hat-trick at the World Cup for Argentina, in a masterclass that will live long in the memory. There had been some doubt about Messi’s level, after several seasons in Major League Soccer with Inter Miami, and some injury issues during that time. Messi himself had expressed uncertainty that he would even make the tournament last year, but against Algeria he appeared to dispel all doubts. It remains to be seen how he will hold up physically as the tournament goes on.

Messi believes he is ‘very similar’ to Nadal

Following the game, Messi spoke to the press in the mix zone. He revealed that he and his Argentina teammates are currently watching RAFA, a new biopic on the career of Spanish tennis legend Rafael Nadal. “I love playing football, it’s been my passion since I was little and when I’m feeling good I give it my all. We’re watching Rafa Nadal’s series right now and I identify with him a lot, I think we’re very similar in that sense, that I always want to give my all and I want to feel good and I enjoy it that way. As long as I can and am well enough to do it, we’ll be there,” quote MD.

Can Messi lead Argentina back to glory?

Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni may be pleased that the Albiceleste do not face any of the heavyweights in the group stage, allowing them to grow into the tournament. Certainly their midfield looked in fine fettle, and with Messi in that form, they will be a handful for any side. Perhaps the biggest question mark will be the pace of this Argentina side, who are relying on Giuliano Simeone to provide some of Angel di Maria’s runs in behind, although there is no substitute for the latter’s quality.

“I don’t understand…” – Kalidou Koulibaly takes aim at Donald Trump after issue in France-Senegal game

Senegal centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly has aimed a dig at US president Donald Trump’s immigration policy after fans have struggled to make it to the World Cup.

Supporters from all over the world will be eager to follow the World Cup 2026 live, but Trump has previously signed executive orders imposing travel bans on certain countries, including partial bans on a number of African nations.

Although some fans, many of whom are of Senegalese origin but based in the US, were able to watch yesterday’s game against France, it’s clear that large numbers have been prevented from coming to watch their team play.

Koulibaly was not happy about this, and brought it up with the Athletic after yesterday’s game, though he was also keen to insist he was not trying to get overly political about the issue.

Kalidou Koulibaly on Senegal fans

“The federation did the work for us to have parents or our close family with us,” the former Chelsea defender told the Athletic. “But it’s true that some supporters couldn’t fly to America.

“I think that every team can have their people, so I don’t understand why people from Africa cannot have their people.

“I don’t want to speak about politics or something like this. I just want to speak about football, enjoy football, and I think football is for everybody.

“I just want to tell this and I hope that the situation will be OK, but for me the most important is that we have to play for our people.”

Most fans will surely agree that a major sporting event like a World Cup, with teams from all over the world taking part, should mean a more open policy when it comes to allowing in visitors from abroad.

The White House have previously put out a statement explaining their decision to impose travel bans on certain countries, citing high crime records.

Ralf Ranqnik: “Haqq etdiyimiz qələbəni qazandıq”

Avstriya yığmasının baş məşqçisi Ralf Ranqnik dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində İordaniyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların dörd qolluq görüşü Avstriya millisinin 3:1 hesablı qələbəsi ilə yekunlaşıb.

Ralf Ranqnik matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunlarır söyləyib:

“Matçdan əvvəl də mətbuata demişdim ki, bu dünya çempionatında artıq bir çox sürprizlər görmüşük. İordaniya çox təhlükəli, qapanan və sürətli əks-hücumlar edən komandadır.

Bu, çox çətin oyun idi. İordaniya bizim işimizi xeyli çətinləşdirdi. Xüsusilə ikinci hissənin ortalarında özümüzə gəlmək üçün bizə müəyyən vaxt lazım oldu. Nəticədə haqq etdiyimiz qələbəni qazandıq, amma bunun üçün çox çalışmalı olduq.

Fasilədən sonra etdiyimiz əvəzetmələr və taktiki dəyişikliklər bizə böyük kömək göstərdi.

İordaniya? Onlar özlərini çox yaxşı tərəfdən göstərdilər. Açığı, belə bir oyun nümayiş etdirəcəklərini gözləmirdik.

Oyunçuların reaksiyasından razıyam. İkinci hissənin əvvəlində qapımızda qol görsək də, komanda intizamı itirmədi. Romano Şmidin fərdi keyfiyyəti və Marko Arnautoviçin son nöqtəni qoyması bizə vacib 3 xalı qazandırdı”.

Ranqnik hədəflərinin qrupdan çıxmaq olduğunu sözlərinə əlavə edib:

“28 illik fasilədən sonra mundiala qələbə ilə başlamaq mükəmməldir. Lakin Argentina və Əlcəzair kimi rəqiblərin olduğu qrupda hələ heç nə bitməyib. İndi növbəti oyunlara fokuslanmalıyıq. Məqsəd qrupdan çıxmaqdır”.

“Biz bura sadəcə iştirak üçün gəlməmişik”

İordaniya millisinin baş məşqçisi Camal Sellami isə komandasının məğlubiyyətinə belə şərh verib:

“Birinci hissəyə çox müsbət başladıq, lakin rəqib yaxşı təşkilatlanmış komanda idi. Hesabı bərabərləşdirdikdən sonra rəqib ərazi üstünlüyünü ələ keçirdi.

Nəticə İordaniya komandasının nümayiş etdirdiyi fədakarlığı və mübarizəni tam əks etdirmir. Şəxsən mən komandamızın çıxışından çox razıyam.

Qalib gələ bilməməyimizin səbəblərindən biri də Avstriya yığmasının heyətində “Real” və “Bayern” kimi klublarda çıxış edən futbolçuların olmasıdır. Amma düşünürəm ki, bizim əldə etdiklərimiz də qürur mənbəyidir”.

Mütəxəssis Əli Olvanın tarixi qola imza atdığını da vurğulayıb:

“Ölkəmizin dünya çempionatları tarixindəki ilk oyununda qol vurduq. Əli Olvanın qolu bütün İordaniya xalqı üçün tarixi bir an idi. Avstriya kimi güclü Avropa komandası ilə başabaş mübarizə apardıq. Hesab 1:1 olarkən avtoqol oldu və bu, oyunçularımın motivasiyasına təsir etdi. Sonda təyin olunan penalti isə nöqtəni qoydu”.

O, mübarizəni sonadək davam etdirəcəklərini bildirib:

“Biz bura sadəcə iştirak üçün gəlməmişik. Futbolçularımın göstərdiyi cəsarətdən qürur duyuram. Növbəti oyunlarda səhvlərimizi düzəldib qrupdan çıxmaq üçün sonadək vuruşacağıq”.

Skaloni və Pektoviç matçı qoyub, Messidən danışdılar

Argentina millisinin baş məşqçisi Lionel Skaloni dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Əlcəzairə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandalar DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turu çərçivəsində üz-üzə gəliblər və yekunda Argentina yığması 3:0 hesablı qələbəyə sevinib.

Lionel Skaloni matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında daha çox bu oyunun qəhrəmanı Lionel Messidən söhbət açıb:

O, Messinin yüksək oyunu sayəsində qalib gəldiklərini bildirib:

“Messi istədiyi müddətcə dünyanın ən yaxşısı olmağa davam edəcək. Onun barəsində deməyə söz tapmıram. Lionel bunu artıq 20 ildir bacarır. Messinin bütün dünyaya ötürdüyü hissləri və göstərdiyi futbolu dəyərləndirməliyik. Bu, həqiqətən, inanılmazdır. Biz isə oyundan-oyuna mübarizəmizi davam etdirəcəyik.

Qarşıya çıxan problemləri vaxtı gəldikcə həll edəcəyik. Komanda razıdır, biz bir çox futbolçuya oyun vaxtı verdik. Ümid edirəm ki, növbəti matçı da qazanacağıq ki, üçüncü qrup oyununda bütün futbolçular şans əldə edə bilsinlər”.

Əlcəzair yığmasının baş məşqçisi Vladimir Petkoviç də bu qarşılaşmada het-trik etmiş Lionel Messi haqqında danışıb:

“Sinif və ustalıq daim qalır. Çünki biz sıradan bir futbolçudan yox, karyerası ərzində yeddi və ya səkkiz dəfə “Qızıl top” qazanmış bir oyunçudan danışırıq.

Təəssüf ki, ilk və ikinci qolları vurmaq imkanı ona özümüz verdik və bunu etməsi onun üçün asan oldu. Onun bəxti gətirib ki, bütün Argentina yığması onun üçün çalışır və ona dəstək verir. O isə artıq neçə illərdir, bəlkə də onilliklərdir, inanılmaz işlər görür.

Bu gün Argentina yığmasının qapıya ümumilikdə 10 zərbəsi oldu və onların yeddisini Messi vurdu”.

Solbakken: “İraqla matçda layiqli qələbə qazandıq”

Norveç yığmasının baş məşqçisi Stol Solbakken dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində İraq millisinə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların görüşündə qapılara 5 qol vurulub və yekunda Avropa təmsilçisi 4:1 hesablı qələbəyə sevinib.

Stol Solbakken matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Komandamız oyuna yaxşı başladı və ilk hissədəki qollar bizə üstünlük qazandırdı. Lakin İraq da xüsusilə ilk hissədə yaxşı mübarizə apardı və bizə çətinlik yaratdı. Ümumilikdə oyuna nəzarət etdik və layiqli qələbə qazandıq. Müdafiədə bəzi səhvlərimiz oldu ki, onları da düzəltməliyik.

Təcrübəli mütəxəssis bu matçda dubl etmiş hücumçu Erlinq Haland haqqında da fikirlərini bölüşüb:

“Erlinqlə işləmək çox asandır. O, komanda yoldaşlarına hər zaman ən yaxşısını arzulayır, onlarla və məşqçilər heyəti ilə vaxt keçirməyi sevir. O, superulduzdur, amma eyni zamanda çox sakit və sadə insandır”.

İraq millisinin baş məşqçisi Qrem Arnold isə məğlubiyyəti belə şərh edib:

“Bəzi anlarda oyunumuz həqiqətən möhtəşəm idi, amma bir neçə səhv bizə çox ciddi zərər vurdu. Norveç millisi, həqiqətən, yaxşı futbolçulardan təşkil olunmuş komandadır. Bu məğlubiyyətə baxmayaraq, qrupdan çıxmaq üçün şansımız var. Bizim hələ iki oyunumuz qalır”.

Kilian Mbappe Fransa millisinin ən yaxşı bombardiri oldu!

Fransa millisinin hücumçusu Kilian Mbappe futbol üzrə dünya çempionatlarında vurduğu qolların sayına görə bir neçə rekorda imza atıb.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, o, buna DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda qarşılaşdıqları Seneqal yığması ilə oyunda dubla imza atmaqla nail olub.

27 yaşlı forvard komandasının 3:1 hesablı qələbəsində əsas pay sahibi olub. Mbappe bu qollarla mundiallardakı qol sayını 14-ə çatdırıb. O bununla braziliyalı Peleni (12 qol), argentinalı Lionel Messini (13 qol) və həmyerlisi Jüst Fonteni (13 qol) geridə qoyaraq almaniyalı Gerd Müllerin göstəricisini təkrarlayıb. Siyahıda yalnız braziliyalı Ronaldo (15 qol) və almaniyalı Miroslav Kloze (16 qol) ondan öndə qərarlaşıb.

Bununla yanaşı, hücumçu Fransa millisi tarixinin ən yaxşı bombardiri adına da sahib çıxıb. Mbappe milli komandada keçirdiyi 99-cu oyunda 58-ci qolunu vuraraq 57 qola malik Olivye Jirunun rekordunu yeniləyib.

Xatırladaq ki, Kilian Mbappe 2024-cü ildən İspaniya nəhəngi “Real”ın formasını geyinir. Hücumçu ötən mövsüm 44 oyunda 42 qol və 7 məhsuldar ötürmə ilə yadda qalıb. O, Fransa millisinin heyətində 2018-ci ildə dünya çempionu olub, 2022-ci il mundialında isə gümüş medal qazanıb.

Video: Lionel Messi’s superb solo goal that made World Cup history – and perhaps settled GOAT debate for good

Lionel Messi scored his 16th World Cup goal in some style as his hat-trick gave Argentina a 3-0 win over Algeria last night.

The 38-year-old is now level with legendary Germany striker Miroslav Klose as the World Cup’s all-time leading goal-scorer, and you’d very much assume he’s going to break that record as there will still be so many more opportunities to do so at this year’s tournament.

Messi, playing at his sixth World Cup, is now on a record-equalling 16 goals in the tournament, and you have to wonder if this might even go a step further to settling the GOAT (greatest of all time) debate between himself and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Lionel Messi vs Cristiano Ronaldo at the World Cup

The Messi-Ronaldo debate has gone on for much of the last decade or more now, but the fact that Messi won the 2022 World Cup, scoring twice in that final victory over France, will have been decisive for some.

The fact that Messi is now also joint top as the all-time record scorer at the World Cup, scoring double the amount that his Portuguese nemesis has at this level, is another big argument in his favour.

World Cup top scorers Goals Games
Lionel Messi 16 27
Miroslav Klose 16 24
Ronaldo 15 19
Gerd Muller 14 13
Kylian Mbappe 14 15
Just Fontaine 13 6
Pele 12 14

Ronaldo, of course, is still playing at this year’s World Cup, so can do his best to catch up with Messi, but it’s hard to imagine he stands much of a chance of meaningfully catching up.

Interestingly for Messi, though, he may have another major rival to watch out for as Kylian Mbappe is only two World Cup goals behind him, having scored twice for France in their win over Senegal yesterday.

Deşam: “İlk oyundakı qələbə həlledici deyil”

Fransa yığmasının baş məşqçisi Didye Deşam dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsində Seneqal millisinə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk turu çərçivəsində qarşılaşmış bu komandaların görüşü Fransa yığmasının 3:1 hesablı qələbəsi ilə yekunlaşıb.

Didye Deşam matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Bu qələbə bizə müəyyən rahatlıq gətirir. Oyuna bir qədər ehtiyatlı və gərgin başladıq, rəqib isə çox yaxşı çıxış edirdi. Daha sonra oyunumuzu tapa bildik, xüsusilə də Usman Dembelenin və Maykl Olisenin mövqelərini dəyişdikdən sonra. Bredli Barkola da çox təhlükəli oynadı.

Dörd komandadan ibarət qrupda ilk oyunda qələbə qazanmaq hələ heç nəyi həll etmir. Fransa azarkeşləri bizi dəstəkləmək üçün uzaq yoldan gəliblər və bu, ucuz başa gəlmir. Futbol yalnız qalib gəldiyin və həmin emosiyaları onlarla bölüşə bildiyin zaman həqiqətən sehrli olur.

Barkola ilə bağlı onu deyə bilərəm ki, start heyətində yer almağa tam haqqı çatan çox sayda futbolçu var. Rayan Şerki də onlardan biridir. Bizə onların hamısı lazım olacaq”.

Seneqal yığmasının baş məşqçisi Pap Tiav isə 1:3 hesablı məğlubiyyəti belə şərh edib:

“Biz bu matçda qalib gəlməyi çox istəyirdik və bu, meydanda da görünürdü. Təəssüf ki, bizə effektivlik çatmadı. Dünya çempionatında isə hər şeyi xırda detallar həll edir. Qol vurmaq üçün imkanlarımız var idi, amma eyni zamanda vacib məqamlarda top itkilərinə yol verdik. Biz özümüzə belə səhvlərə icazə verə bilmərik.

Nəticə gözlədiyimiz kimi olmadı. İkinci hissədə bir neçə kollektiv səhvə yol verdik və sonda məhz onlar həlledici oldu. Müdafiədə oyunun böyük hissəsində yaxşı təsir bağışlayırdıq, lakin bəzi anlarda topa nəzarəti itirdik və bunun cəzasını çəkdik.

Fikrimcə, biz bu sınağa layiqincə cavab verdik. Belə turnirlərdə əziyyət çəkmək normaldır. Hesabda geri düşdükdən sonra reaksiya verməyə və hesabı bərabərləşdirməyə çalışdıq, lakin buna nail ola bilmədik. Norveçə qarşı növbəti oyunda daha aqressiv olmalıyıq”.

France Player Ratings vs Senegal: Mbappe shines with 9/10 in World Cup 2026 opener

France have started their FIFA World Cup 2026 campaign with a convincing 3-1 win over Senegal.

Kylian Mbappé scored twice to hand his team a delightful start to the tournament, and they will be hoping to build on this and go all the way this time around.

France looked quite cagey in the first half and struggled to cope with Senegal’s pace and directness in transition. However, they gained control in the second half and completely outplayed their opposition.

France won the World Cup in 2018 and finished as runners-up in 2022. Didier Deschamps has a lot to be positive about after what he has seen from his team tonight, and he will certainly hope they can go all the way.

Here at CaughtOffside, we look at how the French players fared in a tricky game against Senegal.

🇫🇷3-1🇸🇳 #FRASEN | #FIFAWorldCup pic.twitter.com/AkdgvaQ3Ku

— Equipe de France ⭐⭐ (@equipedefrance) June 16, 2026

Mike Maignan – 6/10

The goalkeeper had relatively little to do for large parts of the contest, but he should have done a lot better about Senegal’s late goal. His distribution was tidy, and he looked composed whenever called into action.

Jules Koundé – 6.5/10

Koundé provided energy down the right flank and was generally reliable defensively. He had a few difficult moments against Senegal’s pace but recovered well and helped France maintain their shape during a challenging first half.

Dayot Upamecano – 7/10

The Bayern Munich defender looked solid throughout. He looked dominant in aerial situations but was occasionally exposed when Senegal attacked with speed. Improved significantly after the break as France gained control.

William Saliba – 6.5/10

Saliba’s composure on the ball helped France play out from the back under pressure. Although Senegal’s attackers caused problems at times, the Arsenal defender remained calm and delivered a solid if unspectacular performance.

Theo Hernández – 6.5/10

One of France’s most adventurous defenders, Hernández constantly looked to push forward and stretch the Senegal backline. Defensively, he was tested on occasion but contributed positively in possession.

Aurélien Tchouaméni – 7/10

France struggled to establish control early on, but Tchouaméni grew into the match. His ball-winning ability and positional discipline became increasingly important as Senegal began to tire, allowing France to dictate the tempo.

Adrien Rabiot – 6.5/10

Rabiot worked hard in midfield and helped France regain authority after a difficult opening period. While he was not particularly influential in the final third, his experience and physical presence proved valuable. Also created the second goal of the game for Bradley Barcola.

Michael Olise – 8.5/10

The creative heartbeat of the French attack. Olise’s vision and passing repeatedly opened up Senegal’s defence, and his assist for Kylian Mbappé’s opener was a moment of genuine quality. Whenever France threatened, he was usually involved.

Ousmane Dembélé – 7/10

Dembélé remained a constant threat with his pace and direct running. His final ball was inconsistent at times, but he stretched Senegal’s defence and created space for his teammates throughout the game.

Desire Doue – 6/10

Worked hard and helped France maintain attacking pressure. However, that final bit of quality was lacking and he never really threatened Senegal with his flair or goalscoring ability.

Kylian Mbappé – 9/10

— Opta Analyst (@OptaAnalyst) June 16, 2026

The difference-maker. Mbappé was relatively quiet at times during the match but once again demonstrated why he is one of the world’s elite players. Two clinical goals settled the contest and ensured France began their World Cup campaign with maximum points.

Bradley Barcola – 8/10

Barcola CLUTCH 🇫🇷💥 pic.twitter.com/JMpx4GjEAd

— Ligue 1 English (@Ligue1_ENG) June 16, 2026

Barcola brought energy, urgency and cutting edge to France’s attack. His goal effectively killed off Senegal’s hopes of a comeback and capped an excellent display. The young winger made a huge impact whenever he got on the ball.

Rayan Cherki – 6.5/10

Added fresh legs in midfield and helped France see out the match comfortably. Looked lively after his introduction, but did not have enough time to make a major impact on the contest.

Sabri Lamuşi Herve Renarla əvəzləndi – DÇ-də şok istefa

DÇ-2026-da mübarizə aparan Tunis yığmasının baş məşqçisi Sabri Lamuşi istefaya göndərilib, onu bu postda Herve Renar əvəz edib.

Arena.az bu barədə Tunis Futbol Federasiyasına istinadən xəbər verir.

Bildirilir ki, DÇ-2026-nın qrup mərhələsinin ilk oyununda İsveçə ağır məğlubiyyətdən (1:5) dərhal sonra Sabri Lamuşi istefaya göndərilib. Federasiya rəhbərliyi bu darmadağından sonra gözlənilməz qərar verməklə dünya çempionatları tarixində qeyri-adi bir addım atıb.

Xatırladaq ki, Lamuşi bu ilin yanvar ayından Tunis yığmasına rəhbərlik edirdi. 54 yaşlı fransalı mütəxəssis bu komandanı cəmi 5 oyuna çıxarıb, 1 qələbə, 1 heç-heçə və 3 məğlubiyyət görüb.

Lamuşini Tunis millisində həmyerlisi Herve Renar əvəz edib. Onunla cəmi 1 aylıq müqavilə imzalanıb. Renarın bu komandadakı gələcəyi millinin DÇ-2026-dakı nəticələrindən asılı olacaq.

Qeyd edək ki, F qrupunda yer almış Tunis millisi növbəti matçını iyunun 21-də Yaponiya yığmasına qarşı keçirəcək.

Renar daha əvvəl Səudiyyə Ərəbistanı, həmçinin Fransanın qadınlardan ibarət millilərini də çalışdırıb.

Donald Trump to be part of World Cup trophy lift with winning team

There has been no shortage of uproar over the past few months over the protocols in the United States pertaining to the World Cup, starting with their immigration policies. US President Donald Trump has been defiant that he will not alter policy for the tournament, but FIFA are set to do so for him.

FIFA President Gianni Infantino has defended the USA’s right to refuse entry to thousands of fans, members of Iranian team staff, and Somali referee Omar Artan, saying that they cannot dictate to the USA. This is despite the fact that he had previously guaranteed freedom of movement to the participants in the tournament.

The United States’ unique approach to hosting this tournament could continue to the very end of it too. Talksport report that FIFA will not stand in the way of President Trump being part of the World Cup trophy lift following the final. Back in 2022, there was uproar at the Emir of Qatar placing a traditional bisht on Argentina captain Lionel Messi before he lifted the trophy, which was then immortalised in photos of Messi hoisting the trophy.

FIFA protocol states that only the team will be part of the team trophy lift after being presenting with the Jules Rimet, but they will not stand in Trump’s way if he desires to hand the trophy to the winning captain, and remain there for the initial celebrations.

Trump pulled off similar stunt with Chelsea

Trump has already been the protagonist of similar scenes last year, drawing confused looks from Cole Palmer during Chelsea’s celebrations after the Blues came out victorious in the Club World Cup last summer. In that instance, Trump remained in the group of Chelsea players after handing the trophy to Reece James as he then lifted it with his teammates.

Spain manager after Cape Verde shock: “We have to continue with the same idea”

Spain manager Luis de la Fuente has claimed that it is time to double down rather than react with changes to their shock draw against Cape Verde on Monday night. La Roja, who came into the World Cup as one of the favourites to win, could not find a way past Cape Verde, who were making their debut in the tournament.

On the whole, Spain were unable to find space in the final third, as evidenced by Mikel Oyarzabal’s unwanted touches record. Even so, there were chances for La Roja, who had 27 shots but only managed six on target, and de la Fuente was keen to put out the message that the solution was not change.

“The solution lies in persisting with the same idea, continuing to improve with more finesse, but oh well… These are the kinds of matches where, as Rodri has explained, you create a lot, but without the freshness you need for these kinds of games,” he told Marca.

“The idea is what has brought us this far, what has made us European champions, what has allowed us to remain undefeated for so long; to continue betting on that idea, and also to continue betting on recovering the important players we need to recover, who will have an important role as we progress in the competition.”

‘We lacked some speed of passing’ – De la Fuente

Continuing on, de la Fuente was impressed with their opponents, and felt that a little more sharpness would have unlocked the door.

“They are a very organised team. We knew they would be playing in a low block, making it very difficult to create space. Even so, we created chances, but we lacked some speed of passing to generate more. When the ball just won’t go in, it just won’t go in. There were shots, opportunities, and a desire to settle the game quickly. We know this is very difficult, and we know it’s extremely hard to win here.”

Image via AFP7 via Europa Press AFP7 / Europa Press

“These kinds of competitions are extremely close and difficult. The teams have different characteristics, and despite their limitations, they do what they do well. The team we faced was clearly inferior to ours, but they did what they had to do very well and defended very well. If we had scored a goal in the first half, the game would have been different, but they do what they do very well. So in every match, you have to apply yourself with absolute precision at a very high level to be able to overcome your rivals, and of course, they’ve shown us that we have to keep growing, we have to keep improving.”

He insisted that his side could be relied upon to progress and to grow into the competition.

“All the noise and drama is fine, but this team is undeniably reliable. By the way, today we made it to 32 matches unbeaten. The numbers show it’s an extraordinarily reliable team. We’ll be better in the next match, that’s for sure. And we know how difficult this type of competition is; if you lack that finesse, that freshness, that accuracy in the final passes, well, this is what happens.”

“But there’s nothing that should cause us any doubt, nothing that should cause us any distraction or excessive worry, other than that it’s an area for improvement that we need to keep working on. That’s all. Whatever is said or left unsaid, we’re sticking to our path, and it’s the path that has brought us here, after many months of doing things very well and continuing to do so.”

Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams fitness

In the final stages of the game, de la Fuente put Lamine Yamal on for the final 25 minutes, and Nico Williams for the final five minutes. Both have been recovering from hamstring injuries over the past two months.

“The goal is to gradually give them playing time, so they can gain confidence and rhythm and be in better shape for future matches.”

Gavi selection choice

If there was a decision that attracted criticism though, it was the choice to play Gavi out on the left wing, away from his natural place in central midfield.

“We thought Cape Verde would sit deeper, not as deep as they did, but their retreat was so deep, a result of our absolute dominance and the constant sense of danger we created. This pressure forced them to push all 10 defenders, including the goalkeeper, back into the box, thanks to the movement of our wingers cutting inside and the width and depth provided by our full-backs. But, to put it simply, sometimes you just don’t have the necessary touch, that decisive pass that could have led to some of the goals we created.”

All eyes will be on de la Fuente’s starting line-up for their next clash with Saudi Arabia on Sunday, and whether it will see starts for any of their three wingers, Lamine Yamal, Nico Williams or Victor Munoz. In Spain, de la Fuente has certainly taken plenty of heat for his selection choices.

Just in: England suffer World Cup injury blow as defensive plans take late hit

England’s World Cup preparations have been hit by a major injury concern, with Tino Livramento expected to be ruled out of the tournament.

According to The Telegraph, the Newcastle United full-back is now unlikely to feature at the 2026 World Cup, although the FA has not yet officially confirmed the situation.

That final detail matters, but the mood around the camp appears worrying ahead of England’s opening match against Croatia.

Livramento was named in Thomas Tuchel’s 26-man squad and had been viewed as an important defensive option because of his pace, energy and ability to play on either side of the back line.

FourFourTwo listed him among the fresh faces selected for England’s tournament squad, underlining how much faith Tuchel had placed in him.

England consider Chalobah as possible replacement

Trevoh Chalobah is reportedly one of the options being considered as a replacement. That would make sense from Tuchel’s point of view.

The Chelsea defender is versatile, mobile and already familiar with the manager’s demands from their time together at Stamford Bridge.

Tuchel has previously shown he values defenders who can cover different roles, and Chalobah fits that profile.

He may not be a natural like-for-like replacement at full-back, but he can operate across the defensive line and would give England another athletic option if the squad needs adjusting.

A massive blow at the worst possible time

This is a frustrating moment for England because defensive balance was already one of the biggest talking points around Tuchel’s squad.

The likes of Harry Maguire and Luke Shaw were not selected in the squad which raised eye-brows.

Tuchel would be hoping that his decision prove to be right in the end since criticism would be massive if he gets his selections wrong, having made some unpopular calls.

Losing Livramento now would remove one of the squad’s most dynamic wide defenders just as the tournament begins.

England still have quality options, but tournament football often comes down to depth, flexibility and fitness.

England are still waiting for official confirmation from the FA. But if Livramento is ruled out, Tuchel will have to react quickly.

Qalenoy və Beyzlidən heç-heçəyə şərh

İran yığmasının baş məşqçisi Əmir Qalenoy dünya çempionatınn qrup mərhələsində Yeni Zelandiyaya qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların bu gün baş tutmuş görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib – 2:2.

Qalenoy matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Çox gözəl görüş alındı. Məncə, ilk turun ən yaxşı matçı idi. Oyundan razı olsam da, nəticədən razı deyiləm. Qapımıza iki top gəldi, hər ikisi qolla nəticələndi. Bizim isə çox qol imkanlarımız oldu. Amma yararlana bilmədik. ABŞ-yə daha tez gəlməli idik. Amma təəssüf ki, buna imkan vermədilər. Hələ tam uyğunlaşmamışıq. Artıq bir az dincəlməli və bərpa olunmalıyıq. Bu matçı təhlil edəcəyik və zəif cəhətlərimizin üzərində işləyəcəyik”.

Yeni Zelandiya millisinin baş məşqçisi Darren Beyzli isə məhsuldar heç-heçəyə belə şərh verib:

“Oyunçularla son dərəcə fəxr edirəm. Düşünürəm ki, topa sahib olmaqda həqiqətən də çox yaxşı idik və yaxşı müdafiə olunduq. Oyunda çoxlu qol imkanları yaratdıq. İki dəfə üstün olduğumuz oyunu qazana bilmədiyimiz üçün məyusam, iki əla qol vurduq, bəzi anlar yaşadıq ki, bu da həqiqətən yaxşı idi. Bu gecə tarix yazmaq və Dünya Kubokunda bir oyun qazanmaq şansımız var idi. Biz qalib gəlməyə çox yaxın idik”.

Byelsa: “Qalib gəlməli olduğumuz oyunda xal itirdik”

Uruqvay yığmasının baş məşqçisi Marselo Byelsa dünya çempionatında Səudiyyə Ərəbistanı millisinə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların bu gün baş tutmuş görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib – 1:1.

Marselo Byelsa matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Qarşılaşdığımız rəqib məğlub etməli olduğumuz komanda idi. İlk hissədə bəzən gördük ki, işimizi düzgün qurmamışıq. Bu, qalib gəlməli olduğumuz oyun idi. Düşünürəm ki, qələbə qazana bilməməyimizin səbəbi ən yaxşı oyunumuzu göstərə bilməməyimizdir. Məhz buna görə qalib gələ bilmədik. Birinci hissədə ikinci hissədə oynadığımız kimi oynamaq üçün hər şeyimiz var idi, amma bunu yalnız fasilədən sonra bacardıq.

İkinci hissədə oyun dəyişdi. Daha çox variant yarandı, futbolçular hərəkət etmək, topsuz açılmaq və qol vəziyyətləri yaratmaq imkanı əldə etdilər. Futbolda belə hallar olur. Bəzən az sayda qol epizodu yaradırsan, amma qol vurursan. Bəzən isə çoxlu imkanlar əldə etsən də, bundan yararlana bilmirsən”.

Səudiyyə Ərəbistanı millisinin baş məşqçisi Georgios Donis isə güclü rəqibə qarşı çıxış etdiklərini bildirib:

“Təşkilatlanmış müdafiə sərgilədiyimizi və oyun planına sadiq qaldığımızı söyləyə bilərəm. Bu matçda qazanılan 1 xal həqiqətən çox dəyərlidir. Növbəti matçlarda da ən azı eyni uğuru təkrarlamağa çalışacağıq”.

Kazakhstan May 2026: Changan cracks podium, helped by new CS35 Max

The new Changan CS35 Max is up to #3 in Kazakhstan in May.

New vehicle sales in Kazakhstan drop -5.1% year-on-year in May to 18,393 units, pushing the year-to-date tally further into negative territory at -1.8% to 84,002. This month, after a freak surge by Chevrolet in April, Hyundai (-27.6%) reclaims the top of the brands charts with 15.8% share and despite a sharp year-on-year fall. Chevrolet (-0.2%) is relegated to #2 with 12.7% share vs. 17.2% so far this year where it stays #1. Changan (+17.5%) advances further to a record this place, the carmaker’s first time on the Kazakh podium. In contrast Kia (-24.9%) drops to #4 ahead of four Chinese carmakers: Chery (+9.8%), Haval (+19.7%), JAC (+58.4%), all rising apart from Jetour (-7.8%).

Over in the models charts, the Chevrolet Cobalt (+19.7%) stays on top even though it drops from 25.5% share last month to 12.2%. The Hyundai Tucson (+0.6%) remains at #2 while the new Changan CS35 Max ascends to the podium for its third month in market. It distances its big brother the Changan CS55 Plus (-26.3%) while the Haval M6 (+2.2%) rounds out the Top 5. The Chery Tiggo 2 (-6%) is up four spots on April to #5 and the JAC S3 (+78.2%) is up 20 to #7. The Toyota Camry (+147.8%), Haval Jolion (+49.7%) and Jetour X70FL (+20.1%) also shine in the remainder of the Top 10.

Previous month: Kazakhstan April 2026: Chevrolet Cobalt at 25.5% share

Rudi Qarsiya: “Misirə qalib gələ bilərdik”

Belçika yığmasının baş məşqçisi Rudi Qarsiya dünya çempionatının qrup mərhələsinin ilk turunda Misirə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların bu gün Sietldə (ABŞ, Vaşinqton) baş tutmuş görüşündə qalib müəyyənləşməyib.

Rudi Qarsiya matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Dünya çempionatı kimi turnirin ilk oyunu həmişə çətin olur, xüsusilə də Misir kimi Afrikanın ən güclü yığmalarından birinə qarşı oynayanda. Vacib olan odur ki, biz təslim olmadıq. Ehtiyatdan meydana daxil olan futbolçunun sayəsində hesabı bərabərləşdirə bildik və bu, bütün komandanın nə qədər vacib olduğunu göstərir. Bu, iki çox yaxşı milli komanda arasında baş tutan əla bir oyun idi. Rəqib komanda ilk zərbədən qol vurdu. İkinci hissədə bərabərlik qolunu vurduq. Fikrimcə, qələbə də qazana bilərdik”.

Misir yığmasının baş məşqçisi Hossam Hassan da heç-heçədən sonra komandasının oyununu yüksək qiymətləndirib:

“Futbolçularımla fəxr edirəm. Son iki il ərzində üzərində çalışdığım taktiki ideyaları meydanda necə həyata keçirdiklərindən razıyam. Mən onlara həmişə deyirdim ki, fərqli futbol oynamalıyıq və istənilən komandaya qarşı mübarizə apara bilərik. Bizim üçün ən vacib məqsəd növbəti mərhələyə yüksəlməkdir. Qarşıdakı oyunlarda vəziyyəti daha da yaxşılaşdırmaq şansımız var”.

Qeyd edək ki, bu matçın son dəqiqələrində Misirin futbolçuları Zizonun belçikalı müdafiəçi ilə toqquşmadan sonra yıxıldığı epizoda görə penalti təyin olunmasını tələb etsələr də, onların etirazı qəbul edilməyib. Baş məşqçi həmin epizoda da toxunub:

“Biz qələbəyə çox yaxın idik və həmin epizodda bizim xeyrimizə penalti verilməli idi”.

De la Fuente: “Burada zəif rəqib yoxdur”

Futbol üzrə İspaniya millisinin baş məşqçisi Luis de la Fuente dünya çempionatında Kabo Verdeyə qarşı keçirdikləri oyunu şərh edib.

Arena.az xəbər verir ki, sözügedən komandaların bu gün baş tutmuş görüşündə qapılara qol vurulmayıb – 0:0

Luis de la Fuente matçdan sonra təşkil edilmiş mətbuat konfransında bunları söyləyib:

“Matça yaxşı başladıq və oyun ərzində üstün tərəf olmağa çalışdıq. Bir neçə qol imkanı yaratdıq, lakin son nöqtəni qoya bilmədik. Kabo Verde müdafiədə çox intizamlı çıxış etdi və işimizi çətinləşdirdi. Əlbəttə, qələbə qazanmaq istəyirdik, amma bu nəticədən nəticə çıxarıb yolumuza davam etməliyik.

Bizim əhval-ruhiyyəmiz müsbətdir və inkişaf etmək istəyirik. Meydanda baş verənləri, yaratdığımız çoxsaylı qol vəziyyətlərini nəzərə alsaq, bu günkü oyunda qalib gəlməli idik. Lakin bizə həm fiziki təravət, həm də soyuqqanlılıq çatmadı. İnkişaf etməyə və formamızı daha da yaxşılaşdırmağa davam etməliyik. Növbəti oyuna qədər olan günlərdə əsas məqsədimiz məhz budur.

Rəqib fiziki baxımdan çox güclü idi. Biz bilirdik ki, onlar çox aşağı müdafiə xətti ilə oynayacaq və heyətlərində çox güclü futbolçular var. Buna bizim təravət çatışmazlığımızı da əlavə etsək, ortaya bu mənzərə çıxır. Futbolda belə hallar olur — burada zəif rəqib yoxdur”.

“Biz cəsur oğlanlarıq”

Kabo Verde milli komandasının baş məşqçisi Bubista (Pedro Leytao Brito) isə sensasiyalı heç-heçəni belə şərh edib:

“Bu nəticə ölkəm üçün hər şey deməkdir. Biz çox istəyirdik ki, nəhayət bütün futbol dünyası yığmamızın necə oynadığını görsün. Biz sübut etdik ki, inanılmaz dərəcədə dözümlü bir komandayıq.

Final fitindən sonra qapıçımız Vozinyanın göz yaşları yalnız onu bürüyən güclü emosiyalardan qaynaqlanırdı. Bu nəticə uzun illər davam edən ağır, səbirli və əziyyətli əməyin bəhrəsidir. Biz müdafiədə möhtəşəm və təşkilatlanmış şəkildə oynadıq. Vozinya uzun illərdir milli komandanın formasını geyinir, lakin mən fərdi olaraq hansısa futbolçunu xüsusi vurğulamağı xoşlamıram. O, bu oyunda qapıda sakit və inamlı görünürdüsə, bunun əsas səbəbi qarşısında oynayan bütün futbolçuların meydanda öz işlərini ən yüksək səviyyədə yerinə yetirməsi idi.

Ümumiyyətlə, indi kağız üzərində daha zəif hesab olunan yığmaları təbrik etməyin vaxtıdır. Onlar nəhəng iş görürlər. Dünya futbolunun ümumi səviyyəsi hazırda xeyli dərəcədə bərabərləşib. Yüksək taktiki təşkilatlanma sayəsində planetin ən güclü komandaları ilə bərabər səviyyədə rəqabət aparmaq mümkündür. Bəli, İspaniya topa tam nəzarət edirdi, amma bu, heç də oyunun gedişatına tam nəzarət etdiyi anlamına gəlmir. Əlbəttə, biz özümüz də daha çox hücum etmək istərdik və matçın sonlarına doğru bunu müəyyən qədər bacardıq.

Bununla belə, etiraf etməliyik ki, İspaniya yığması fantastik, ən yüksək səviyyəli komandadır. Və biz yalnız fəxr edə bilərik ki, dünya çempionatındakı debüt oyunumuzda belə bir nəticəyə nail olduq.

Amma bu uğurdan başımız dönmür. Uruqvay çox sərt və sistemli komandadır, lakin biz həmişə öz oyun üslubumuza sadiq qalırıq və ona inanırıq. Qrup mərhələsində bizi daha üç çox çətin qarşılaşma gözləyir, amma biz cəsur oğlanlarıq. İspaniya kimi rəqiblə heç-heçə etmək bizə daha çox psixoloji sabitlik və öz gücümüzə inam verir. İndi biz praktikada bilirik ki, istənilən rəqiblə bu qədər yüksək səviyyədə rəqabət apara bilərik. Məhz bunu bütün dünyaya sübut etmək istəyirdik”.

Spain forward sets insane unwanted record during Cape Verde’s heroic draw

Tournament favourites Spain ground to a shock 0-0 draw with Cape Verde to open their World Cup campaign, with the African side securing their first ever point on the world stage at the first time of asking. The Blue Sharks held Spain at arms’ length for most of their encounter, as evidenced by a remarkable statistic to emerge from the game.

While Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha, 39 years of age, made a total of seven saves during the match, but he did not finish the game being peppered by efforts from La Roja. Although it was backs to the wall defending, they looked capable of holding Spain at bay throughout, who were unable to get their forwards into the game.

That was epitomised by Mikel Oyarzabal, who came into the game on a run of 10 goal contributions in eight games in qualifying. Yet the Real Sociedad forward started at nine, and could not get into the match. Opta have reported that Oyarzabal was the first player in World Cup history, since records began in 1966, to go for thirty minutes without touching the ball.

When he finally did, it was a loose first touch that broke down a half-chance, with Oyarzabal looking to get a shot off. He finished the game with 25 touches, getting five shots off and making 10 passes, eight of which were successful.

Although Oyarzabal did not have a great game, it was symptomatic of their performance overall than just the Basque forward’s contribution. With Gavi and Ferran Torres out wide for the first 70 minutes, La Roja could not stretch their opposition, and there was little space in the final third. Luis de la Fuente will no doubt hope the return to fitness of Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams will go some way to remedying that.

PSG and Arsenal will have to break Romeo Lavia record to sign rising star of World Cup

Lille are set to demand a record fee for their teenage central midfielder, with Arsenal and PSG the most likely to pay it as it stands.

If you enjoy CaughtOffside coverage and want to see more of it, add us as a preferred source on Google to make us a favourite and see more of our content.

The World Cup always brings big moves and plenty of rumours, and before even the first round of games has been completed one of the breakout stars of the tournament already looks to have emerged.

Morocco’s hugely impressive 1-1 draw against Brazil was the most high profile match of the competition so far, and the star of the show was sensational teenage midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi.

He ran the show against the Selecao, and it’s no surprise that transfer interest in the Lille starlet has ramped up since.

Teenage talent fee could smash records

TeamTalk are reporting that Arsenal and PSG are the front runners to sign him, but it won’t come cheap.

A £60m fee would be the highest ever for a teenage central midfielder, breaking the record set by Chelsea’s disastrous signing of Romeo Lavia.

Given Bouaddi’s age and potential, it would still seem like a pretty good deal. If he keeps playing well at the World Cup and Morocco go far in the tournament, the number could climb even higher.

In other news…

Ismael Saibari is closing in on a move to join Bayern Munich, with a medical set to take place in the USA in the coming days.

Chelsea are going to make a number of signings this summer – but Alex Scott won’t be one of them if you listen to quotes from sources close to the club.

Predicted Teams Spain-Cape Verde: La Roja open World Cup with Lamine Yamal – on the bench

Tournament favourites Spain are set to open their World Cup campaign this evening against Cape Verde in Atlanta at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Many eyes will be on Lamine Yamal, to see how the Barcelona star fares as he recovers from injury.

The Euro 2024 winners are seeking their second ever win, and optimism is high in Spain that they have the quality to do so. Up against them in their first game is Cape Verde, who are participating in their first ever tournament, with the oldest squad in the competition by average age.

According to Marca, Manchester City star Rodri Hernandez will anchor the midfield, with Pedri and Fabian Ruiz ahead of him. Mikel Oyarzabal will continue to lead the line between Alex Baena and Ferran Torres, in a line-up without too many surprises. New Real Madrid signing Marc Cucurella is also expected to start.

For Cape Verde, manager Bubista said he and his players were ready to take on any challenge. Veteran forward Ryan Mendes will captain the side, with Shamrock Rovers defender Roberto ‘Pico’ Lopes marshalling the backline.

Many will be watching closely to see how Lamine Yamal fares, with the 18-year-old returning from injury after nearly two months out. Diario AS say that he will start on the bench, and manager Luis de la Fuente did not give away what his plan was. It seems Nico Williams and Victor Munoz, who have both been dealing with injuries too, will be sat alongside him. The latter is currently in negotiations to join Newcastle United this summer, and alongside Williams, is one of two wide players that stand out for their pace, an essential for de la Fuente.

Malaysia May 2026: Proton Saga back in charge

The Proton Saga is the best-selling vehicle in Malaysia in May.

It’s a difficult month for new car sales in Malaysia with May volumes off -10.7% year-on-year to 66,053. The year-to-date tally remains in positive, just, at +0.07% to 335,853. Perodua (-22%) skids down to 37.1% share vs. 38.9% year-to-date and 42.5% a year ago in May 2025. In contrast other local carmaker Proton (+26.6%) jumps to 24.4% share vs. 17.2% last year. The Top 7 brands are unchanged on April and YTD, with Toyota (-13.3%), Honda (-37.8%) and Omoda Jaecoo (+16.3%) rounding out the Top 5 ahead of Mitsubishi (+6.5%) and Mazda (+50.4%). Jetour (+1263.4%) celebrates one year in market with a record 8th place while newcomer iCaur is up to a best ever #13.

Model-wise, the Proton Saga (+37%) lodges its second win of the year after last January with 11.1% share. The Perodua Bezza (-22.7%) is in trouble at #2 but remains in the lead year-to-date. The Perodua Axia (-21.3%), Myvi (-28.9%) and Alza (-34.1%) complete the Top 5, all in a rut. Meanwhile the Proton S70 (+34.2%) aka Geely Emgrand is up to #6 ahead of the Proton e.MAS 7 (+141%) aka Geely EX5 up 9 spots on April to #7. The new Perodua Traz slides down three ranks to #12 with fellow newcomers the Toyota Yaris Cross (#15), Proton e.MAS 5 (#16) and Jetour T2 (#22) in tow.

Crysencio Summerville is wanted by several clubs including Tottenham

Summerville is a player in demand this summer with several clubs after him.

Tottenham, who wanted to sign him in January, have entered the race for the winger again this summer as Roberto De Zerbi looks to bolster his attack.

Manchester United are another club rumoured to be interested in him alongside Mateus Fernandes, who remains one of their top targets.

Besides Premier League clubs, Several Serie A clubs, namely, AS Roma, Napoli and AC Milan are interested in signing the winger.

West Ham under pressure to sell Summerville after relegation

The Hammers face an uphill battle to keep hold of their prized asset. Following West Ham’s recent devastating relegation from the top flight, the London club is under intense financial pressure to trim their wage bill and raise capital.

Watch: Liverpool and Man Utd-linked defender powers home towering header for Germany vs Curaçao

Germany have restored their lead against Curacao courtesy of a goal from Nico Schlotterbeck.

His Borussia Dortmund teammate Felix Nmecha gave his side an early lead inside just six minutes.

However, the World Cup debutants responded back not too long after. In the 21st minute, the Caribbean side stunned the four-time world champions.

Livano Comenencia smashed home an equaliser, making history with Curaçao’s first-ever goal at a World Cup finals.

But in the 38th minute, the 6 ft 3 in defender Nico Schlotterbeck rose above the defence, connecting with a towering header to make it 2-1 from the corner.

On the cusp of halftime, the drama intensified as Nmecha was upended in the box. Kai Havertz stepped up in the fourth minute of stoppage time, coolly rolling the penalty into the bottom left corner to stretch the lead to 3-1.

Liverpool have been linked with Nico Schlotterbeck as they eye Van Dijk replacement

 

Schlotterbeck’s crucial defensive and attacking display will only fuel the intense transfer market speculation surrounding his future.

Liverpool have been heavily linked with the 26-year-old as they intensely scout a long-term successor for veteran captain Virgil van Dijk.

The Dutchman turns 35 this year, with his current contract set to expire in 2027. And Schlotterbeck’s combination of left-footed distribution and aerial dominance makes him the ideal Anfield candidate.

Man United are also interested in the German defender

The Merseyside outfit will face a fierce battle for his signature, as Manchester United are also reported to be highly interested in the center-back.

Michael Carrick is eager to secure an elite, ball-playing defender to anchor their defensive rebuild and has reportedly identified him as an ideal candidate.

Sky Sports’ journalist Florian Plettenberg has recently confirmed United’s interest in the player, stating that if the player doesn’t renew with Dortmund, he will be available for in the summer for €30m-35m (£26-31m).

With the World Cup spotlight firmly on him, Schlotterbeck’s stock is set to skyrocket further as the second half gets underway.

World Cup: Each of the Three Favourites’ Likely Route to the Final

The World Cup is finally here, and while its monstrous ticket prices have dominated much of the build-up, the actual football is finally set to take over. So, which teams are you likely to see should you stump up enough cash to secure your spot at MetLife Stadium on July 19th? 

Well, online betting sites have had their favourites priced up for months, and it’s the usual suspects who find themselves at the top of the odds lists. The latest World Cup betting at Bovada odds currently make Spain the 9/2 outright frontrunner, with France just behind at 5/1. Then there’s England at 7/1, third favourites. But what could each of their routes to the biggest game in world football potentially look like? Let’s take a look at their most likely path to glory. 

Spain

Spain famously stormed to a record-breaking fourth European championship crown in Germany two years ago. Now, their talented young squad attempts to take their talents from the continental stage to the global one. Lamine Yamal was just 16 years of age for much of that tournament in Germany in 2024. Now aged 18, he has matured into arguably the best player on the planet, and flanked by his loyal Barcelona cohorts, such as Pedri, Gavi, Dani Olmo, and Pau Cubarsí, he is now tasked with bringing the famous gold trophy back to Spain for the second time. 

His side has been handed the perfect group to do exactly that. Luis de la Fuente’s men will face debutants Cape Verde in their opener in Atlanta on June 15th, before then facing Saudi Arabia in the same stadium five days later. Those two games will almost certainly yield six points and a slew of goals, before a clash with Uruguay in Guadalajara on June 26th brings their group stage commitments to an end. 

The bookies make Spain a whopping 1/5 favourite to top Group H, and if they don’t, it would be a monumental shock. Presuming that they do, then La Roja would likely face either Austria or Algeria in the stunning SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on July 2nd for another clash that they will be heavily favoured to win. Win that, and they have a Round of 16 clash against either Croatia or Colombia to look forward to, again a contest they’ll be well backed to win. 

Spain could well emerge at the quarterfinal stage without breaking a sweat. There, the USA, Turkey, and Belgium are considered their most likely opponents, arguably the weakest of any of the tournament favourites at that stage. In the semi-finals, second-favourites France will likely lie in wait. 

France 

France have reached each of the last two World Cup finals, and this summer, they aim to reach a record-equalling third straight. They beat Croatia in the first of those two showpieces in Moscow before losing a thriller on penalties to Argentina in Qatar four years later. However, if they are to reign supreme this summer, they will have to do so without two men who threaded the team together for over a decade: Antoine Griezmann and Olivier Giroud.

Even without those two, Les Bleus still have quality right across the pitch, but it’s in attack that they’re truly deadly. Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele, Michael Olise, and Desire Doue make up arguably the most fearsome attacking quartet at the entire tournament, and they will strike fear into each and every defence they come up against. But even so, they do have a much tougher run to the final than frontrunners Spain. 

Didier Deschamps’ side has been drawn into arguably the most difficult group at the tournament alongside both Norway and Senegal. Still, the bookies make them a clear 2/5 favourite to head Group I, and if they do, they will head to MetLife Stadium on June 30th for a clash with one of the best-placed third teams. 

From there, they will head to Philadelphia for a crunch round of 16 clash against fellow heavyweights Germany, before embarking upon a potential quarterfinal against the Netherlands in Boston on July 9th. After already running the gauntlet, a well-rested Spain side will then likely lie in wait in the semis, with July 14th in Dallas the date for that monster showdown. 

England 

Pretenders or contenders? That’s always the question with England. Their runs to each of the last two European Championship finals suggest that they are firmly the latter as opposed to the former, while the appointment of proven winner Thomas Tuchel only aids their case. Add to that the blistering form of Harry Kane, whose 61 goals in 51 games for Bayern Munich this season have positioned him as the favourite to win the Ballon d’Or, and it’s clear that the Three Lions could well roar. 

Heartbreak for England is a constant on the big stage…

+700 to bring home a World Cup for the first time since 1966 ??????? pic.twitter.com/oO0cPRYomD

— Bovada (@BovadaOfficial) June 4, 2026

They must navigate perennial banana skin Croatia in their opening game, before then facing Ghana and Panama in Group L, a quartet that they’re 1/4 favourite to top. They will also face one of the best-placed third-place teams in Atlanta on July 1st, before gearing up for a likely clash against tournament co-hosts Mexico in front of thousands of Mexicans at the iconic Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. 

The task gets no easier in the quarterfinals as the Three Lions will likely gear up for a clash with Brazil in a repeat of their 2002 quarterfinal. They will then probably face one of their two modern rivals in the semi-finals, either Argentina or Portugal, with those two set to square off in the quarterfinals and the winner facing England in the semis.

Mexico May 2026: Record market, Nissan Magnite, Chevrolet S10 at all time high

The Nissan Magnite is up to a record 4th place in May.

The Mexican new vehicle market is up 5% year-on-year in May to 127,107 units. This is a new May record, eclipsing the 122,925 sales of May 2017. At 627,619 units after 5 months, sales are also at a record level, beating the 615,686 of the 5 months of 2017. Nissan (-4.9%) stays atop the brands charts with 16.9% share, distancing Chevrolet (+2.8%) and Toyota (-1.2%). Volkswagen (+3.9%) follows while Mazda (+12.5%) pips Kia (+5.1%) to round out the Top 5. Hyundai (+3%) is soft and Ford (-7.3%) skids YoY but advances two spots on April to #8. Geely (+295.7%) surges ahead at #9. Below, Dodge (+84.3%), Renault (+25.4%), Ram (+22.1%) and Changan (+21.2%) stand out.

Over in the models charts, the Chevrolet Aveo (+5.7%) threepeats at #1, which is starting to be a little worrying for the Nissan Versa (-22.8%) in complete freefall and now just 1,606 sales above the Aveo year-to-date. The Kia K3 (+15.5%) is down one rank on last month to #3 while the Nissan Magnite (+89.7%) is up one spot to a new ranking record at #4, beating its previous best of #5 reached just last month. It also breaks its volume (3,751) and share (3%) records. Meanwhile the Chevrolet S10 (a rebadged Maxus T60) is up 71.2% to equal its ranking (#7) and share records (2%) and reach an all time high 2,548 sales.

Pakistan May 2025: Suzuki Fronx lands, Tank 500 up

The Suzuki Fronx lands directly at #8 in Pakistan in May.

According to local manufacturers association PAMA, 17,660 new locally assembled vehicles hit Pakistani roads in May, a vigorous +19.4% year-on-year lift. Year-to-date, sales are up 45.5% to 95,382. Note not all manufacturers present in Pakistan are members of PAMA such as Kia, Changan and MG notably and therefore don’t appear in these statistics. Suzuki (+60.1%) brilliantly maintains itself above 50% share, distancing a struggling Toyota (-27.6%) at 19.8%. Honda (+12.6%) and Haval (+36.5%) follow. Tank is up five spots on its inaugural month to #6 and 2% share while Jetour drops one rank to #8.

Model-wise, the Suzuki Alto (+74.9%) tightens its grip on the charts with 33.8% share, followed this month by the Suzuki Swift (+109.1%) more than doubling its sales year-on-year. The Sazgar Haval H6 (+36.5%) is down to #3 as a result. We have a new model in the charts: the Suzuki Fronx landing directly at #8 with 3.1% share. Notice also the Tank 500 up 11 spots on April to #13.

Previous month: Pakistan April 2026: Suzuki at 50% share, Jetour and Tank land

Portugal May 2026: Tesla Model 3 #1, BYD Atto 2 inside Top 10

The BYD Atto 2 breaks into the Portuguese Top 10 in May.

25,080 new cars hit Portuguese roads in May, a 6.5% improvement which is a great result given May 2025 was already up 18.6% on the year prior. The year-to-date tally is now up 9.8% to 110,731. This month Volkswagen (+10.8%) takes the lead of the brands charts with 7.3% share, only 16 sales above traditional leader Peugeot (-27%) in freefall. Mercedes (+3.6%) completes the podium. The best performer in the Top 10 is clearly Tesla (+348.8%) up 4-fold year-on-year and 19 spots on April to #6 with 5.8% share vs. 4% so far this year. BMW (+15%) and Toyota (+14.5%) are also strong in the remainder of the Top 10. Below, BYD (+68.3%) and MG (+39.1%) stand out.

Model-wise, the Tesla Model 3 (+1616.4%) surges ahead to land in pole position for the 5th time in Portuguese history after November 2023, May 2024, September 2024 and September 2025. The Citroen C3 (-2.9%) is back up six spots on last month to #2 while the Peugeot 2008 (-25.6%), in great difficulty, rounds out the podium but remains #1 year-to-date. The Dacia Duster (-9.8%) and Renault Captur (+6.8%) round out the Top 5 ahead of last month’s leader, the Peugeot 208 (+4%). Outstanding month for the Hyundai i20 (+32.9%) up to #8. The other performer of the month is the BYD Atto 2 (+585.7%) up 47 ranks to break into the Top 10 at #10.

Previous month: Portugal April 2026: Peugeot scores 1-2 with 208 and 2008 in the lead

South Korea May 2026: Tesla Model Y first foreign model to top charts outright

The Tesla Model Y is the best-selling vehicle in South Korea in May.

New car sales in South Korea stumble -10.2% year-on-year in May to just 126,955 units. However it would have been worse without the help of foreign manufacturers, up 5.9% to 23.5% share whereas domestics ones drop -14.3% to 76.5% of their home market. Year-to-date, the market is now up just 1% to 686,008 units including 540,054 domestic manufacturers (-5.1%) and 145,954 foreigners (+32.3%).

Kia (-0.9%) celebrates 5 consecutive months at #1 with 35.2% share, confirming its newfound dominance over sister brand Hyundai (-20.7%) at only 30.9%. Kia now has a whopping 22,105-unit advantage over Hyundai year-to-date. Tesla (+65.4%) continues to stun, selling over 10,000 units for the third month in a row. BMW (+2.3%) passes a freefalling Genesis (-35.3%) for fourth place. Audi (+47.7%) and Lexus (+13.8%) defy the negative market with splendid YoY gains. BYD (+101.2%) slides outside the Top 10 at #12 but still doubles its sales year-on-year.

Looking at domestic models, the Kia Sorento (+1.3%) delivers an 8th win in the past 9 months, outselling the Hyundai Grandeur (+12.7%) like last month. The Kia Sportage (-10.1%) matches the market and is back up three spots on last month to #3, whereas the Kia Carnival (-31.7%) and Hyundai Avante (-29.7%) both implode. Excellent performance by the Kia EV3 (+61.9%), lodging a 4th straight Top 10 finish. The new Renault Korea Filante seems to have already peaked, down 9 ranks on last month to #31.

As for foreign nameplates, the Tesla Model Y (+40.5%) delivers a historic result: at 8,762 sales it is simply #1 in the overall market including domestic models. It is simply the first time we have ever seen a foreign model top the South Korean charts. Ever (at least since Korean manufacturers were born). The BMW 5 Series (-1.5%) is back above the Tesla Model 3 (+294.2%) with the Mercedes E Class (-45.3%) and BMW X3 (+33.9%) rounding out the Top 5. At #6, the new BYD Sealion 7 manages a 9th straight Top 10 finish.

Slovenia May 2026: Renault Clio leads, Leapmotor up to #12 brand

Leapmotor is up to #12 in the Slovenian brands ranking in May.

6,154 new cars hit Slovenian roads in May, a splendid 20.2% year-on-year improvement. This brings the year-to-date tally up 14.7% to 28,659. Volkswagen surges 38.8% to 17.7% share vs. 15.2% so far this year and is followed like last month by Skoda (+13.6%), Renault (+7%) and Toyota (+20.7%). Peugeot (+12.2%) is back up 7 spots on last month to #5 but trails the market. It’s a mediocre month for Hyundai (-38.3%) while BMW (+30.2%) is in outstanding form at #10. Launched last July, Chinese newcomer Leapmotor is up seven ranks on April to #12 with 185 sales and 3% share, all records.

Over in the models charts, the Renault Captur (+21.4%) lodges its first win of the year at 4.1% share, distancing the Skoda Octavia (+26.2%) which becomes #1 year-to-date. The Peugeot 3008 (+71.2%) is up 12 spots on last month to #3, ending the month ahead of the VW T-Roc (+86.5%) and Renault Clio (-32.1%). The VW Touran (+134.1%) and Golf (+75.3%) also shine in the remainder of the Top 10 while the Skoda Kamiq (+22.1%) is just above the market growth rate. The best-selling recent launches are the Leapmotor B10 and T03, equal #16.
