Football: Madrid beat Villarreal in front of sparse Bernabeu crowd

MADRID (REUTERS) - Real Madrid earned a fifth consecutive home win by beating Villarreal 3-2 in an open and entertaining game on Sunday (May 5) in front of their lowest crowd for a league fixture this season.
Madrid got off to an ideal start when Mariano Diaz netted in the second minute after teenager Brahim Diaz had chased down Santi Cazorla but Villarreal hit back in the 11th when Gerard Moreno slammed the ball inside the near post from outside the area after Real midfielder Casemiro was dispossessed.
Madrid, got themselves back in front shortly before halftime when defender Jesus Vallejo stuck the ball into an empty net after a deflected shot from Marcelo, while Mariano struck again early in the second half to stretch his side's advantage.
Villarreal continued to threaten and after they missed several chances Jaume Costa pulled a goal back in stoppage time, while defender Xavier Quintilla had an opportunity to level in the final seconds of the game but missed the target.
As a disappointing season for Madrid winds to a close, the encounter at the Bernabeu was played in front of only 46,294 fans, in a stadium that holds over 80,000.
Madrid are third in the standings on 68 points after 36 games and still have an outside chance of catching second-placed Atletico Madrid who have 74 after losing at Espanyol on Saturday.
Champions Barcelona have 83 points after losing 2-0 at Celta Vigo.

The Goalkeeping Mindset. The role of the goalkeeper is never well understood by most, except by other goalkeepers. Goalkeepers are lonely specialists, put in a position that is mostly a setup for failure. They do not touch the ball, as often as field players and when they do it they have the entire spotlight.

Football: Scottish title-chasing Rangers sign Jermain Defoe on loan from Bournemouth

GLASGOW (AFP) - Rangers looked to strengthen their bid to win the Scottish Premiership title for the first time in eight seasons by announcing on Sunday (Jan 6) that they had signed former England striker Jermain Defoe in a loan move.
The 36-year-old, who has scored 162 goals in England's top flight, has joined from Premier League club Bournemouth in an 18-month deal.
Rangers, managed by former England midfielder Steven Gerrard, are currently level on points with arch Glasgow rivals and reigning champions Celtic at the top of the table.
"I'm delighted to be able to welcome Jermain to Rangers," said Liverpool great Gerrard. "He is an exceptionally talented striker and vastly experienced footballer who has scored goals at every club where he has played."
Defoe was not the only player on his way to Ibrox in a loan move from a south-coast Premier League club on Sunday.
Southampton midfielder Steven Davis returned to Rangers for a six-month stint, having previously made over 200 appearances in a four-year spell with the Gers that saw him win eight major trophies, including three league titles.
"He has previously captained the club and been captain for his country and Southampton, so we welcome yet another leader into our dressing room," said Gerrard.

Football: Dogged Argentina hold Japan to goalless draw in women's World Cup

PARIS (AFP) -Â Japan failed to break down a determined and well-organised Argentine defence in Paris on Monday (June 10) in the first goalless draw of the Women's World Cup.
Japan, finalists in 2015 and winners in 2011, enjoyed almost two thirds of possession in front of a crowd of 25,000, but only forced two saves from goalkeeper Vanina Correa.
Argentina's women, who have never won a match at the World Cup, managed three tame late strikes, none of which tested Ayaka Yamashita.
The result, which earned Argentina's women their very first point in a World Cup, leaves both teams on one point in Group D, behind England who beat Scotland on Sunday (June 9).
When the whistle blew at Paris Saint-Germain's Parc des Princes stadium Argentina's substitutes jumped off the bench to join the players on the pitch at finally getting a point on the World Cup board at the seventh attempt.
"This point is really important for us. I think we're able to reflect upon what Argentina is and what it means as a team," said Estefania Banini, Argentina's captain who was voted player of the match.
"We weren't good enough to break down Argentina's defence today," said Asako Takakura, the Japan coach.
Argentina came out to defend with a back four pressing high up the field, the midfield quartet forming a screen a few yards in front and attacker Banini dropping back to fill the gaps.
It worked.
"Basically we couldn't play any other way against this team," said Carlos Borrello, the Argentina manager.
"We had to keep ourselves back and focused, and be very, very organised with that sort of attitude to come out with a counter-attack. It was satisfying to gain a point in this World Cup." Japan managed only two shots in the first half, neither close to the goal. But Argentina did not attempt any.
When Japanese goalkeeper Ayaka Yamashita came out to collect a high and hopeful cross after 40 minutes, the crowd roared.
Banini, short, left-footed and wearing number 10, has inevitably been dubbed the female Lionel Messi, but in build and manner she more closely resembles another left-footed Argentine 10, Diego Maradona.
She was tenacious both with and without the ball and both first-half yellow cards were for rough Japanese challenges on the Argentine captain.
Japan played with more urgency in the second half, pushing Argentina back.
"We don't set out to be defensive against any team," said Takakura. "Of course we have to keep a very solid defence but we don't want to play defensive football. It wasn't in our mindset at all. But the players were cautious today.

Â
"In the second half, they realised they had to be more offensive - so their tempo was faster and they attempted more shots at goal." After 50 minutes, Kumi Yokoyama's drive from 35 metres drew a sprawling save from Vanina Correa. The ball ran to Yuki Sugasawa who blasted over from close range.
Then a clever Japanese move gave Yui Hasegawa a shooting chance near the penalty spot but she sliced wide.
As Japan pressed, Argentina had more chances to counter attack. Banini tormented the Japanese defenders with jinking runs, but could not create a clear chance. Argentina were credited with five goal attempts, all in the last 20 minutes, but none were dangerous.
Since the group stage only eliminates eight of the 24 teams, the draw leaves Japan and Argentina needing one victory in their next two games. Both will need to find a way to score.
"We've still got two teams to face and they're going to be really competitive," said Banini. "We have to play really intelligent, compact football and become a really compact team and I think that we can progress.
"We believe that we can continue fighting and we can get more points and not go home with just one." Later Monday Canada face Cameroon in Group E.

Football: Fandi Ahmad plays down SEA Games rule of two overaged players as he focuses on improving U-22 side

SINGAPORE -Â An age restriction rule tweak has given him more options, but national Under-22 football coach Fandi Ahmad stressed his priority is to develop the current crop under him as they attempt to win Singaporeâ€™s first SEA Games gold.
The football tournament became exclusively an U-23 event in 2001 and this was lowered to U-22 for the 2017 edition in Kuala Lumpur.
But this yearâ€™s host, the Philippines, has adjusted the criteria to allow the 11 countries to include two overaged players for the Nov 30-Dec 11 Games.Â
This directive was recently communicated to the Football Association of Singapore through the Singapore National Olympic Council.
While Fandi could draft senior Lions like national captain Hariss Harun (age 28), forward Faris Ramli (26) or veteran goalkeeper Hassan Sunny (35), he said that with more than seven months to go, he has yet to decide which, if any, areas need strengthening.
â€œVery importantly, we need players who can understand the way we want to play, how we defend and attack,â€ said Fandi, 56.
â€œEverything is still open, and we donâ€™t really see an area that is weakest or strongest (in the U-22 team) at this point.â€
His immediate focus, he added, was to raise the levels of his Young Lions team, whoÂ beat Hougang United last Sunday for their first win of this seasonâ€™s Singapore Premier League.

Â
Last month, Fandiâ€™s U-22 charges also participated in the 2020 AFC U-23 Championship qualifiers and produced some encouraging performances.Â They beat Mongolia and drew with North Korea and Hong Kong to finish second in their group, although it was not enough to secure qualification for next yearâ€™s finals in Thailand.
Over 29 editions of the biennial SEA Games, the Republicâ€™s best showing in football are three silvers in 1983, 1985 and 1989 â€“ all of which Fandi featured as chief goal-getter.
Regarding the new overage rule, Fandi also cautioned against over-emphasising its importance.
Not only could the organisers decide to scrap it at the last minute, he might also not get the players he wants, citing past scenarios involving the Asian Games.
Its football tournament switched to an U-23 category in 2002 â€“ with teams allowed three overaged players â€“ but, like the SEA Games, both competitions are not sanctioned by world governingÂ body Fifa.Â
This means it is not compulsory for professional clubs to release their players for the Games.
At the 2014 IncheonÂ Asiad,Â then Singapore coach Aide Iskandar took senior players Hassan, Baihakki Khaizan and Afiq Yunos to South Korea.
Afiq was a third-choice pick after key midfielders Hariss and Shahdan Sulaiman were not released by their clubs.
The presence of seasoned pros among young players can be a boost, noted national midfielder M. Anumanthan, who was an U-23 player in Incheon.
The 24-year-old said:Â â€œThey (Hassan and Baihakki) brought maturity and stability to the team.
"They used their knowledge and experience to teach us how to deal with moments of pressure and uncertainty.â€

Football: Morata at the double for FA Cup holders Chelsea as Gillingham knock out Cardiff

LONDON (AFP) - Alvaro Morata scored twice as holders Chelsea began their FA Cup defence with a 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest in a match where a tearful Cesc Fabregas appeared to bid farewell to English football.
The third round is the stage where top-flight clubs enter the worldâ€™s oldest senior knockout football tournament and has traditionally been associated with upsets.
But there was only one "giant-killing" on Saturday (Jan 5) with third-tier Gillingham beating Premier League Cardiff 1-0.
Championship side Bristol City defeated top flight basement club Huddersfield by the same score thanks to Josh Brownhillâ€™s 72nd-minute goal and Crystal Palace left it late to see off fourth-tier Grimsby 1-0.
Meanwhile, second division Derby, managed by former England midfielder Frank Lampard, came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 with Premier League strugglers Southampton.
Newcastle were also held to a draw, a Matt Ritchie penalty five minutes from time ensuring a 1-1 result against Championship club Blackburn.
But Arsenal, the record 13-times FA Cup winners, won 3-0 at Blackpool.
Both Morata and Fabregas have been linked with moves away from Stamford Bridge in the January transfer window â€“ the latter is reportedly set to join a Monaco side managed by former Arsenal team-mate Thierry Henry.
Captain for the day Fabregas saw his poor 30th-minute penalty saved by Luke Steele but two goals in the space of 10 minutes in the second half from the previously misfiring Morata, settled the tie.

â€˜Fantastic Cescâ€™

Chelsea coach Carlo Cudicini, taking press questions instead of manager Mauricio Sarri, was uncertain when asked if Fabregas had played his last game for the Blues.
â€œI personally donâ€™t know,â€ he said.
â€œHe (Fabregas) has been fantastic for the teams he played for before us and the contribution he has given to this club and to this team has been amazing. Cesc is a top, top player.â€Â
Cardiff conceded eight minutes from time when midfielder Elliott List scored for south-east club Gillingham.
â€œWe wouldnâ€™t have scored in a million years,â€ admitted Neil Warnock, the Cardiff manager.
Delighted Gills boss Steve Lowell, born in Swansea â€“ Cardiffâ€™s arch Welsh rivals â€“ added: â€œI havenâ€™t played against many Premiership teams before so itâ€™s got to be the best, hasnâ€™t it? Itâ€™s a great result.â€
Southampton were cruising following Nathan Redmond goals early in each half but Derby hit back with two in quick succession after the hour mark through Jack Marriott and Tom Lawrence.
Everton eventually saw off fourth-tier Lincoln 2-1 at Goodison Park as Ademola Lookman and Bernard put the Toffees 2-0 up by the 14th minute but the hosts pulled a goal back in the 28th minute with Michael Bostwickâ€™s effort.

Â
Â
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer enjoyed a fifth successive win since becoming interim manager of Manchester United following the dismissal of Jose Mourinho with a 2-0 win over Reading.
United, last seasonâ€™s losing finalists, scored twice before half-time, through Juan Mata and Romelu Lukaku.
â€œYou canâ€™t ask for more than going through but the way we played wasnâ€™t the best,â€ Solskjaer told the BBC.
Marko Arnautovic helped West Ham beat Championship club Birmingham 2-0 scoring in the second minute but was substituted after 19 minutes by manager Manuel Pellegrini.
â€œHe felt a pain in his back at the beginning,â€ said Pellegrini. â€œHe wanted to continue after that, but it was not good to take a risk.â€Â
Andy Carroll, the man who replaced Arnautovic, made it 2-0 in the 90th minute with his first goal since April.
Elsewhere, an all-Premier League clash saw Brighton win 3-1 away to south coast rivals Bournemouth.
Premier League strugglers Burnley needed a late penalty from Chris Wood to see off third-tier Barnsley 1-0.

Bizarre build up

Arsenal had a bizarre build-up to their tie when a Blackpool fan climbed onto the roof of the coach taking the squad to Bloomfield Road.
Eventually, after being spoken to by police officers, the man came down off the roof after some 40 minutes before he was arrested.
Joel Willock, one of four teenagers in Arsenalâ€™s side, scored twice before half-time, with Alex Iwobi added a third goal late on.
â€œWe imposed our quality on the game and it was good to see the young players do well today as well,â€ said Arsenal manager Unai Emery after his FA Cup debut.
League One leaders Portsmouth, the 2008 FA Cup winners, needed an Andre Green stoppage-time goal in a 1-0 victory away to Championship high-flyers Norwich, down to 10 men after Grant Haleyâ€™s early red card.

Football: Giroud hat-trick helps Chelsea ease into Europa League quarters

PARIS (AFP) - Olivier Giroud scored a hat-trick as Chelsea cruised into the Europa League quarter-finals with an 8-0 aggregate thrashing of Dynamo Kiev on Thursday (March 14), while Napoli also booked a last-eight spot.
After a 3-0 victory in last week's last 16, first leg at Stamford Bridge, 2013 winners Chelsea were even more dominant in Kiev despite manager Maurizio Sarri ringing the changes, thumping the Ukrainians 5-0.
The Premier League giants are bidding for a first trophy under the Italian after losing last month's English League Cup final to Manchester City, and hoping to secure qualification for next season's Champions League.
"We started very well. We wanted to start in this way," Sarri told BT Sport. "We played a wonderful first half and managed the game in the second half."
Giroud, who is yet to start in the Premier League in 2019 after the signing of Gonzalo Higuain, netted a first-half double, before Marcos Alonso slid home a third on the stroke of half-time.
Frenchman Giroud completed his first Chelsea hat-trick by heading home Willian's free-kick just before the hour mark and is now the leading scorer in this year's competition with nine goals.
Teenage winger Callum Hudson-Odoi continued his own fine Europa League form, slotting in his fourth goal of the tournament after racing clear with 12 minutes remaining.
But Sarri reserved special praise for England midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek, who also impressed after being given a rare start.
"His potential as a player is very, very, high," he said.
"Physically, technically and tactically he is improving. He can become one of the best midfielders not only in England but in Europe."

NAPOLI THROUGH DESPITE DEFEAT

Elsewhere, Napoli wrapped up a 4-3 aggregate victory over last season's semi-finalists Salzburg despite a 3-1 second-leg loss in Austria.
Arkadiusz Milik scored a crucial away goal in the 14th minute to all but end the tie, leaving Salzburg needing five unanswered goals to progress.
Munas Dabbur and Fredrik Gulbrandsen struck to give the hosts a glimmer of hope, but Christoph Leitgeb's injury-time third goal was only enough to secure a consolation win on the night.
Russian outfit Krasnodar suffered heartbreak in the other early game, as Goncalo Guedes scored a dramatic injury-time equaliser to send Valencia through 3-2 on aggregate after a 1-1 second-leg draw.
The 19-year-old Magomed-Shapi Suleymanov's 85th-minute effort looked set to dump out the Spaniards on away goals, but Portugal international Guedes came off the bench to send Valencia through.
Marcelino's men have recovered well from a slow start to the season, having also reached the Copa del Rey final and stepped up their bid for a top-four place in La Liga.

Football: Hojbjerg strike gives Southampton 1-0 win at Brighton

BRIGHTON, England (REUTERS) - Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg scored the goal as Southampton withstood a second-half onslaught from Brighton & Hove Albion to secure a vital 1-0 Premier League victory on Saturday (March 30).
The win put the relegation-threatened Saints level with Brighton on 33 points, five above the drop zone.
After a cagey first half, midfielder Hojbjerg gave his side the lead in the 53rd minute, winning the ball high up the pitch and finishing a quick counter-attack by flicking Nathan Redmond's pass home with the outside of his right boot.
The goal prompted a barrage of balls into the box from the home side and Martin Montoya came closest to putting Brighton level, cutting inside and curling a powerful shot that thumped off the crossbar before bouncing to safety.
Brighton pushed Shane Duffy up front for the last few minutes but they failed to get enough quality crosses in to the big Irish defender as Southampton hung on for their third win in their last four games.
Though the performance was punctuated by plenty of errors, Hojbjerg praised the fighting spirit his team have shown.
"Our technical play can be better, (but) performing as a team was excellent. In these away games you don't get a win by being nice - you get it by being brutal and clinical," he told Sky Sports.
"It was the perfect team performance. We're one step closer (to safety), but we're not there yet."
