Football: Jesus returns to boost City's title bid

MANCHESTER, United Kingdom (AFP) - Gabriel Jesus has returned to boost Manchester City's quadruple bid, offering much-needed relief for the club's record goal-scorer Sergio Aguero.
Aguero has been in prolific form for Pep Guardiola's side, scoring 12 goals since the turn of the year as City fight to retain the Premier League title.
But Jesus's fitness problems have piled an increased workload on Aguero, who played six games over 24 days in February while his City team-mate struggled with a hamstring injury in recent weeks.
However, Brazil forward Jesus is in competition to return as City visit Bournemouth on Saturday (March 2) looking to secure a victory that would temporarily move them two points ahead of Liverpool before the current leaders face Everton on Sunday.
Jesus's presence is a relief for Guardiola, whose squad has been stretched by the injuries to Fernandinho and Aymeric Laporte in last weekend's League Cup final win over Chelsea.
City captain Vincent Kompany has made a welcome return to the squad, playing three games in a week despite his long record of injury problems.
But Guardiola admitted handling Kompany's persistent fitness issues has been a challenge.
"It's not easy, in one time he's incredible, the only guy I've met who doesn't train for two months then can play 90 minutes after one and a half training sessions," Guardiola said.
"He knows his body perfectly. It's a risk. But John Stones is back, like Gabriel, we'll see tomorrow.
"Nico (Otamendi) cannot play against Schalke and Aymer is injured so let's see what he have to do.
"He likes to play the way we try to play. I've spoken to him. He adapts quite well, when we are not here he has been injured, the intensity, he knows his position perfectly, he knows the game.
"He understands what we need to do. We cannot use him so regularly because of his fitness but when he is fit he's an incredible player."
The situation regarding England midfielder Fabian Delph, who has been struggling with an ankle injury and illness, is less clear however, with Guardiola confirming that he is available but has not been selected for the trip to Bournemouth.
"He was injured but makes the training session. He can play but he's not in the squad," Guardiola said.

Football: Barcelona on verge of La Liga title after beating Alaves

BARCELONA (REUTERS) - Barcelona have one hand firmly on the La Liga title after winning 2-0 at Alaves on Tuesday (April 23), leaving them 12 points clear at the top of the table with four games to play.
Should second place Atletico Madrid lose at Valencia on Wednesday or against Real Valladolid on Saturday, Barcelona will be champions before they face Levante that evening.
With one eye on next week's Champions League semi-final against Liverpool, Ernesto Valverde picked a side with Lionel Messi, Jordi Alba and Arthur among other regular starters, on the bench.
After a turgid first half, Barcelona stepped up a gear in the second and midfielder Carles Alena sent the Catalans ahead at Mendizorroza after 54 minutes.
Arturo Vidal and Sergio Roberto combined well, the latter threading a pass through to Alena which Luis Suarez cleverly stepped over, allowing the 21-year-old to coolly slot home.
Suarez added the second from the penalty spot after Tomas Pina's handball was spotted by VAR, putting Barcelona in touching distance of their 26th league title.
Samuel Umtiti bundled home from an offside position but after VAR ruled out the defender's goal, the handball by Pina was penalised.
Valverde brought on Messi, Alba and Arthur in the final stages to help Barcelona see the game out, with title celebrations poised for Saturday, or sooner. Alaves are eighth.
"We started well, we could have gone ahead in the first half," said Alena.
"It took a superb move (to break through), a great ball by Sergi that Luis left for me. He saw me coming behind him and he's such a world class player that he was aware of my movement.
"Let's wait and see what Atletico do tomorrow. If they fail, we're champions. I think we deserve this title, we've been the best team."
Earlier, Huesca beat Eibar 2-0 to move 19th, while Real Valladolid climbed to 15th with a 1-0 win over Girona, leaving their visitors in 17th place.

Football: AC Milan may be banned from Europe as Uefa orders another Financial Fair Play probe

LAUSANNE (AFP) - AC Milan risk being excluded from European competition next season after Uefa on Wednesday (April 10) ordered another probe be carried out into the Italian club for breaches of Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.
European football's governing body said in a statement that Uefa's Club Financial Control Body (CFCB) investigatory chamber had decided "to refer the case of AC Milan to the CFCB adjudicatory chamber as the club has failed to comply with the break-even requirement."
The period relates to the 2018-19 season and covering 2016, 2017 and 2018, the statement continued.
"This referral is not related to the decision that was made by the CFCB adjudicatory in December 2018 and covering the 2014-15, 2015-16 and 2016-17 seasons," it added.
The Serie A giants are one of several clubs to have been investigated for breaching Uefa's rules, whereby clubs cannot spend more than they generate by their own means.
Milan have fallen foul of the financial rules since they spent â‚¬200 million (S$304.8 million) on transfers in the summer of 2017.
The 18-time Italian champions won an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) last year, following a Uefa ban from the Europa League.
The club persuaded sport's highest court that their finances would improve under American hedge fund Elliott Management Corporation, who took control last summer when former Chinese owner Li Yonghong forfeited on the loan he had taken to buy the club in 2017 from former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi.
Milan were assessed by Uefa in December, when they were told to break even by 2021 or have their European ban restored.
The club are currently on target to qualify for next season's Champions League, which they have won seven times, as they sit fourth in Serie A with seven games to play.
They failed to progress to the Europa League's knockout rounds but have managed to reach the semi-finals of the Italian Cup.

Football: China strips South Korea of Panda Cup for 'indecent' celebrations despite team's apology

SHANGHAI (AFP) - South Korea's victorious under-18 team were stripped of the Panda Cup on Thursday (May 30), after they infuriated hosts China with their celebrations.
The Koreans had already apologised to "all the people in China" after a picture emerged of a player with his foot on the trophy.
The Koreans were accused of disrespect after they defeated hosts China 3-0 on Wednesday to win the youth international competition in the city of Chengdu in south-western Sichuan province.
The photograph caused uproar in the Chinese media and on social media, with the organising committee accusing the Koreans of "a serious insult".
South Korea's squad and coaches subsequently appeared late in the evening at their hotel and made a public apology in which all the players and staff bowed deeply.
But with the Chinese media fanning the flames, and claims that Korean players also pretended to urinate against the cup, the Chengdu Football Association made it clear that apologies were not enough.
"The Panda Cup organising committee decided to take back the trophy won by the Korean team this time," it said in a statement on the Twitter-like Weibo.
The association, which called the players' behaviour "indecent", suggested that South Korea would not be invited back in future.
"Teams and players who violate sports ethics and spirit are not welcome to participate," it warned.
South Korea, which has a simmering sports rivalry with China, also defeated New Zealand and Thailand to win the Panda Cup mini-tournament, which is in its sixth edition.
But the tournament winners have been scrambling to limit the fallout since the image emerged of the player with his foot on the cup.
A team official, reading a statement in English late on Wednesday in a hastily arranged display of public contrition, called it "a huge mistake".
"We are really sorry for the mistake again and we humbly apologise to all the fans, all the players and also all the people in China," he said.
"(We) apologise again," he added, bowing.
The Chengdu FA's video of the apology has been viewed more than 10 million times on Weibo, where the story was trending, underlining the huge public interest.
The Chinese FA lodged a complaint with the Asian Football Confederation, while the Chinese media, meanwhile, documented other instances of perceived injustices at the hands of South Korean teams.
They highlighted last year's Pyeongchang Winter Olympics, when China were disqualified in the short-track speed skating women's 3,000m relay, a race won by South Korea.
A South Korean footballer was also in hot water at the London 2012 Olympics, when he held up a banner about a disputed island chain after his team beat Japan to win the men's bronze medal.

Football: Buchanan goal hands Canada slender 1-0 win over Cameroon in women's World Cup

MONTPELLIER, FRANCE (REUTERS) - Defender Kadeisha Buchanan scored on the stroke of halftime to hand Canada a winning start to the women's World Cup as they edged Cameroon 1-0 at a rainy Stade de La Mosson on Monday (June 10).
Buchanan came storming in at a corner and delivered a textbook header to break the deadlock.
Yet it was an unconvincing performance from Canada, who are fifth in the FIFA women's rankings and were quarter-finalists at the last World Cup.
Despite all their possession and passing, Canada managed just three efforts on target as they battled to get the better of the African's defence.
Canada's veteran captain Christine Sinclair could only muster several half chances in her bid to become the first player to score at five different women's World Cups.
Nichelle Prince hit the outside of the post just before Buchanan's goal and then also put a close-in effort wide on the hour mark.
But Canada almost paid a price for failing to add to the goal when Claudine Meffometou went just wide from a 70th minute corner in the only real effort of the night for Cameroon.

Football: Klopp rues missed opportunity as Liverpool settle for United draw

MANCHESTER (AFP)Â â€“ Jurgen Klopp admitted Liverpoolâ€™s 0-0 draw at injury-hit Manchester United felt like a missed opportunity.Â
Kloppâ€™s side moved one point clear at the top of the Premier League after their stalemate at Old Trafford on Sunday (Feb 24).
But it was a frustrating afternoon for Liverpool, who wasted a chance to go three points above title rivals Manchester City.Â The Reds managed only one shot on target and Klopp felt their erratic display was largely due to the number of injuries suffered by both teams.Â
Liverpool lost Roberto Firmino to a first half injury, while United saw Ander Herrera, Juan Mata and Jesse Lingard limp off before the interval.Â
â€œIt was a strange game. We started really well, exactly like we wanted. Then the injury crisis started and that obviously cost us the rhythm. It was like â€˜whatâ€™s going onâ€™,â€ Klopp said.Â
â€œIn the end we have to admit United played with a completely new midfield and strikers. We lost our rhythm and couldnâ€™t get it back.Â
â€œIt was a game without a lot of highlights. It was an intense situation. It was a point United wanted and we lost two.Â
â€œSome days United are beatable. You have to do it and we didnâ€™t do it.â€
Liverpoolâ€™s second successive goalless draw came at the end of a week in which they failed to break down Bayern Munich in the Champions League last 16 first leg.Â None of Liverpoolâ€™s attacking stars shone against United, with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane both quiet.Â
Klopp conceded Liverpool had lacked composure at critical moments and he called on them to bounce back against Watford in midweek.Â
â€œIâ€™m not here to be frustrated. I always take what I get from the boys. It doesnâ€™t feel world-class in the moment. Thatâ€™s OK,â€ Klopp said.Â
â€œWe didnâ€™t play a lot of wonderful balls in the final third. The build-up from deep was OK, but then you need to be more flexible.Â
â€œYou need to keep the ball in the right areas, to shoot. We didnâ€™t do it often enough.Â
â€œIt is a point gained because we have one more than before but it doesnâ€™t feel like that. Now Wednesday is our next game.â€
United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was impressed with the way his players kept Liverpool at bay despite so many injuries.Â
â€œEverything that could have gone wrong in the first half went wrong. We had four injuries â€“ we had to keep Marcus Rashford on â€“ it seemed like it was going to be a tough afternoon,â€ he said.Â
â€œI canâ€™t remember Liverpool having a chance. Even though they had possession, I canâ€™t remember David de Gea making a save.â€Â
