Mbappe Double Fires PSG Past Real Sociedad To Champions League Quarters | Football News

[ad_1] Kylian Mbappe lethally fired Paris Saint-Germain into the Champions League quarter-finals with a brace in a 2-1 win at Real Sociedad on Tuesday, his team cruising through 4-1 on aggregate. Coach Luis Enrique has slashed Mbappe's minutes in recent weeks after the player told the club he would leave at the end of the season, but the France captain proved he will be vital if PSG are to finally win the competition for the first time. The electric Mbappe was impossible for Real Sociedad to shackle and his strikes after 15 and 56 minutes left the Ligue 1 leaders with a simple night in the north of Spain."We are very happy, it was the objective," Mbappe told Canal Plus."We wanted to qualify but today we also wanted to win and give ourselves a bit of an easier game. That is what we did."W...

[ad_1] Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique said on Tuesday that he expects Kylian Mbappe to be unhindered by a recent ankle knock when his side face Real Sociedad in their Champions League last-16 first leg. Mbappe was rested for PSG's Ligue 1 win over Lille at the weekend to make sure he was fully fit for Wednesday's clash against La Real at the Parc des Princes. "When a team has a player at the level of Kylian Mbappe, the more he plays, the better it is for the team," Luis Enrique told a pre-match press conference.

Umar Sadiq Blows Chances To Earn Real Sociedad Cup Semi Lead At Mallorca | Football News

[ad_1] Real Sociedad striker Umar Sadiq spurned a string of opportunities to earn his team a first leg-advantage in a 0-0 Copa del Rey semi-final draw at Real Mallorca. Imanol Alguacil's side, who won the 2019-20 Copa del Rey, with the final played in 2021 because of the Covid-19 pandemic, will feel they should have taken a win back to the Basque Country. Sadiq, said La Real coach Alguacil, "knows it's a semi-final. He knows that this goal would have given us an advantage for the second leg, but here, when we slip up, we slip up together, when we win, we win together."  The visitors had ...

Manchester United, Arsenal Rocked In Champions League As Inter Milan Edge Benfica | Football News

[ad_1] Manchester United crashed to a second successive Champions League defeat on Tuesday, losing 3-2 at home to Galatasaray, while Lens stunned Arsenal 2-1. Mauro Icardi made amends for a missed penalty by scoring the winner for Galatasaray as the Turkish club twice came from behind at Old Trafford to pile more misery onto a deeply troubled United side. United have lost their first two games of a Champions League group for the first time, leaving Erik ten Hag's men in  danger of an early exit."The mental errors we make, you cannot allow them at this level. You get punished. This is difficult to control," Ten Hag told TNT Sports."We are all in this together. We were twice up and in control of the game. We expect more together."Rasmus Hojlund was one of the rare bright spots for United, ...
