When Enzo Maresca left Chelsea at the beginning of 2026, the club reacted quickly and brought in the most logical solution – the head coach of its affiliate club Strasbourg, Liam Rosenior, who was familiar with the system in the two teams owned by the BlueCo company and had achieved some exceptional results with the Ligue 1 side.However, the English tactician still seems to be trying to figure things out at the new club, and the proof for that statement is abundant.His touchline reactions have been mocked, making him a fertile ground for memes. He’s often been seen frantically writing something down in a notebook while his crew looked completely disorganized on the pitch, and the pre-game huddle he introduced has already been ridiculed, especially after the recent “incident” with referee Paul Tierney.Chelsea’s huddle ritual had a surprise guest – the ref!Some would think the Blues’ boss was maxed out when it comes to peculiar things, but they would be wrong. There’s more…Namely, foll..

Napoli’s performance was forgettable, but three points against Cagliari on the road are very memorable and can delight the Neapolitans’ fans – 1-0.Even Scott McTominay’s winner – scored just 75 seconds into the game – wasn’t a goal for ages. On the contrary, it was a mere tap-in after a corner kick, a melee in Cagliari’s box, and a clumsy reaction of their defence. Still, it was everything Antonio Conte’s men needed tonight.The following hour and a half brought a fierce fight, countless duels, and a lot of running, but too few nice moves and notable attempts.Nevertheless, the result is the only thing that counts, and it helped Napoli leapfrog AC Milan to second place in Serie A, as the Neapolitans are now six points behind the leaders Inter, though the Nerazzurri have one game in hand.Cagliari Calcio 0–1 SSC Napoli#Cagliari #Napoli #SerieA #MatchResult #Football pic.twitter.com/aUU1S4INcA— Fulltime Herald (@fulltimeherald) March 20, 2026 In a fierce and tough away turf in Sardinia, Nap..

For supporters of AFC Leopards and Gor Mahia, the past few weeks have likely been anything, but comfortable.In offices and homes across Kenya, the simple sight of bread and tea, a daily staple, may have carried an unexpected sting.Follow our WhatsApp channel for more newsThe reason? A little-known community side named Bakor Bakery, fondly known as BB Bread, has been serving up slices of humiliation to two of the most decorated giants in Kenyan football.”We beat AFC Leopards, we dismantled Gor Mahia and we are ready to tear apart any team in the Round of 16,” declares a buoyant Justin Okoba, the club’s coach, his voice still carrying the excitement of a cup run few could have predicted.For a team plying its trade in the Nairobi East Regional League Zone B, BB Bread has become the ultimate underdog story of this year’s FKF Mozzart Bet Cup, a David slinging stones with astonishing precision at football’s Goliaths.##NAJAVA_MECA_9612966##BB Bread first sent shockwaves through Kenyan footbal..

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup approaching, national teams are slowly but surely beginning their preparations for the tournament in the USA, Canada, and Mexico, which means friendly matches are on the horizon.The England national team will thus play two friendly duels in the final days of March, hosting Uruguay on the 27th and Japan four days later, both at Wembley Stadium.The Three Lions’ head coach, Thomas Tuchel, announced a 35-man squad for those games earlier today and sprung a few surprises.Here we go. It’s your #ThreeLions squad for March camp! 👀— England (@England) March 20, 2026 First and foremost, Trent Alexander-Arnold didn’t make the cut! Despite playing for arguably the greatest club in the world, Real Madrid, the right-back apparently failed to impress the German, who instead opted to rely on Jarell Quansah, Djed Spence, and Tino Livramento.On the other hand, there was enough space in the squad for as many as five goalkeepers, one of which (Jason Steele of Brighton) has yet..

No matter what lineup France puts out, it’s a team that strikes fear into opponents. Very few national teams in world football have such depth and quality as Les Bleus. Didier Deschamps can practically pick any player, and that player will look outstanding on the pitch. That’s how strong they are—and why they are among the main favorites to win the World Cup. France will play two friendly matches during the upcoming international break: first against Brazil national football team on March 26, and then three days later against Colombia national football team.Michael Olise shines, Florentino Perez reactsFor these matches, Deschamps has called up 26 players. The coach hasn’t experimented much—there are no major surprises or debutants, mostly proven players—but the squad still looks frightening. The only change in defense is that Jules Kounde is out due to injury, and Pierre Kalulu takes his place. It’s surprising that such a quality player like the Juventus full-back has only one cap for ..
