After the game, United fans only had one man on their minds: Osimhen. With 18 goals in 19 league games, he has propelled Napoli to the top of Serie A, and he also has two goals in Europe. The Red Devils have been linked with his signature, but Napoli may require a club record £115 million to consider selling. Many United fans, however, believe Osimhen is worth every penny and have urged the club to go all out to sign him. The word on the street is that there is a new zombie movie in the works, and it will feature zo

RECAP: The holders of the Champions League rip Liverpool apart as Vinicius and Benzema both run riot. Real Madrid's young France midfielder Eduardo Camavinga spoke about the spirit that drives Europe's champions on the eve of the club's arrival in England this week. He discussed how La Remontada, or the comeback, is ingrained in Real Madrid lore. 'People think Madrid is dead, but Madrid is never, never dead,' Camavinga said. He was referring to last season, when Carlo Ancelotti's team staged a series of epic comebacks on their way to the Champions League final against Liverpool. Two goals down with half an hour to

Graham Potter's tenure as Chelsea manager has been difficult.Credit: Alamy However, the Blues manager, 47, is struggling to get a song out of his mega-money squad, which includes £600 million in new signings this season alone. The stats now show that he is nearly replicating his campaign at Brighton from last season. Chelsea is tenth in the Premier League after 23 games this season. They have won eight, drawn seven and lost eight, scoring 23 and conceding 23. With 15 games remaining, they have 31 points, four points and three places behind Brighton, who also have a game in hand.

They had 25 goals but had also given up 23 goals, giving them 33 points and a ninth-place finish. Tuchel oversaw Chelsea's first six games of the

"I hadn't watched the final again until the weekend," he explained. Then I realized why I hadn't watched it before — because it was pure torture. "We played well and could have won the game." And that is the key word: 'could.' They scored a decisive goal, while we did not. "Real do not worry when other teams have a chance and they do not lose confid

  0-2 Osasuna Real Madrid: Marco Asensio and Federico Valverde score late goals to cut the champions' lead over LaLiga leaders Barcelona to five points. Federico Valverde eventually opened the scoring, and with just over 10 minutes remaining, Marco Asencio sealed the three points for the champions. Moi Gomez scored for Osasuna in their best effort of the game. Real Madrid cut the gap at the top of La Liga to five points with a 2-0 win over Osasuna three days before facing Liverpool in the Champions League. It was a hard-fought victory won without Karim Benzema, Toni Kroos, and Aurelien Tchouameni, all of whom should be available for Tuesday's game. There were times when Benzema's absence was felt, but Alvaro Rodriguez's superb second-half performance as a substitute will have given Carlo Ancelotti food for thought for the next time he is without the Frenchman. After Fede Valverde scored the first, he set up Marco Asensio for the second. In the first half, he was the mai
