Yesterday was not a good day for Arsenal, their players and fans. In a fierce battle for the Premier League title, the Gunners lost at home to Bournemouth 2-1 and are not in a state of shock and anger, just days before the showdown with Manchester City, who are now nine points below, but with two games in hand. And this would not be the first time that the Citizens are trailing Arsenal and then come up on top in May. So, there is a state of emergency at the Emirates. Saturday’s defeat brought some heavy scenes with angry supporters while some of the players didn’t help the situation with their clumsy statements.Arteta admits “it has to hurt”, Henry is fuming: “That’s arrogance, not control”The penalty goalscorer Victor Gyokeres ended up being at the headlines due to his statement that a ‘dry pitch’ was one of the reasons for the defeat. “We had some okay chances in the end. The pitch was maybe a bit dry there to be honest, so that didn’t help. We all need to do better and take our chan..

Juventus FC can see the UEFA Champions League again—and they can largely thank Jeremie Boga for it. Not him alone, but more than anyone else, as the winger from Ivory Coast has delivered two crucial wins over the past month. This latest one was especially important, as the Turin side defeated Atalanta BC 1–0 in one of the key clashes of Serie A’s 32nd round, against a direct rival for fourth place. Boga arrived at Juventus late in the January transfer window as a backup solution. The club had spent all of January trying to strengthen their attack, but after failing to sign Randal Kolo Muani and Jean-Philippe Mateta, they turned on February 1st to the winger from OGC Nice, who was eager to leave the French Riviera. Juventus offered him a way out—and now he’s repaying them.🗣️ Jeremie Boga: “I couldn’t have dreamed of a better start. Today was a very difficult game, we fought even with the example of the captain, who showed us the way, and we are very happy for today, because they are thr..

Nairobi United head coach Godfrey “Solo” Oduor has explained why Ugandan star Mustapha Kizza has been starting from the bench.Naibois fans and Kenyan football lovers at large have been wondering why the former CF Montréal man has not been featuring in the starting eleven in recent times.##NAJAVA_MECA_9666606##Kizza once again started on the bench in their FKF Premier League match against Kakamega Homeboyz on Wednesday 8 April but still showed his class, curling a beautiful free kick into the back of the net in the 70th minute which was an equaliser that ensured the match ended in a 2-2 draw.In his post match press conference Oduor was put to task to explain his decision not to start the 26 year old.“Kizza initially started some matches when he came in but then he was fasting during Ramadan when we largely used him as a substitute,” said Oduor.Mozzart Bet Cup: Kakamega Homeboyz, Nairobi United and KCB in action packed Sunday showdown“Once the holy month was over there were players who h..

All of Germany knew it would happen on this game day. That the Bundesliga would get a new record, that an achievement more than half a century old would go down in history. And so it did. Bayern used Matchday 29 and their trip to St. Pauli (0–5) to salute an old, mighty generation and elevate a new, dominant one that could become timeless. The Bavarians of Udo Lattek, featuring Franz Beckenbauer, Gerd Muller, Uli Hoeness and Paul Breitner, scored 101 goals in the 1971/72 Bundesliga season. That number had remained untouchable—until now. Vincent Kompany has turned Bayern into the most powerful attacking force in Europe. This new Bayern has surpassed the old guard and now sits on 105 league goals with five matches still to play. Who knows where they’ll stop?105 – Der FC Bayern München schoss 105 Tore in dieser Bundesliga-Saison, neuer Saison-Rekord eines Teams in der BL-Historie.

Moses Shumah is a man on a mission, and a very clear one at that: winning the Zambian Super League ZSL Golden Boot in his first attempt. The main man upfront for league leaders Power Dynamos, Shumah struck his 18th goal on Saturday in a hotly contested Kitwe derby, dispatching Nkana FC at the Levi Mwanawasa Stadium. He is, by far and large, unstoppable, and his team knows it.Shumah sought a new challenge at the end of the 2024/25 FKF Premier League campaign, from which he walked away with the Golden Boot. Power Dynamos were ready for the lanky forward, whose towering leaps in the 18 yard area are responsible for more than half of his goals. He rises to meet crosses with purpose, something defenders in the ZSL are yet to counter. After his 18th, Shumah remains focused.##NAJAVA_MECA_9666664##Download our Mozzart Sport app for more news“The most important thing is to stay consistent and focused. There will be more opportunities to score more goals and, if my focus is right, I will add a f..

The title is all but wrapped up.Another stumble from Real Madrid was punished instantly, as Barcelona brushed aside Espanyol 4-1, stretching their lead at the top to nine points – a gap that already feels decisive.And yet, the mood is anything but carefree.Because unless Hansi Flick finds a way to overturn a two-goal deficit against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday, this domestic dominance will offer little comfort. Another early European exit would mark an 11th straight year without a final, and raise uncomfortable questions.Top of the league. pic.twitter.com/MxOO1UdEjA— FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) April 11, 2026 Flick opted for a calculated gamble.
