Gareth Southgate does not believe in fairytales, but the England manager is a firm believer in dreams, so he said on the eve of the Euro 2024 final.
England take on Spain with history on the line in Berlin on Sunday.
Win, and the Three Lions will end a 58-year wait for a second piece of silverware. Spain, on the other hand, could become the first team to win the European Championships on four separate occasions.
England lost to Italy on penalties in the final of Euro 2020 three years ago, and while they have stuttered their way through in Germany, Southgate wants to create a special moment in time.
I m not a believer in fairytales, but I am a believer in dreams, he said.
We ve had big dreams and felt the importance of that, but you ve got to mak…
Dropping what could be a pair of costly points on Saturday afternoon as they had to settle for a away at Nottingham Forest, Manchester City also sacrificed their spot at the top of the Premier League table.
While the defending champions might have laid down a real marker away at the Emirates last weekend as they claimed a thumping 3-1 romp against Arsenal, Pep Guardiola s side are seeking some stability.
Likewise, along with facing what is a heavyweight title scrap in 2023, the Sky Blues are also dealing with some rather public issues behind the scenes in Manchester.
Charged with breaking the Premier League s around 100 times over a nine-year period, there remains a real cloud of uncertainty over the Etihad.
Although City might have made quite the stat…
Leicester s Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez has asked the to leave the Foxes
Algerian winger Riyad Mahrez lit up the Premier League in season 2015/16 helping Leicester City to an extraordinary title victory.
However, just like his team, Mahrez’s performances went downhill in the next season.
The 26-year-old struggled to get anywhere near the form that won him the Player of the Year award in the previous campaign, scoring just six goals and producing three assists in the Premier League.
Following a disappointing campaign, Mahrez has now asked to leave the Foxes this summer. The club have stated he will only be sold for ‘a substantial fee’.
The question is will he ever recapture the sensational form of his one golden season in English football?<…
Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor was fined £25,000 and handed a suspended two-match ban by the Football Association for his celebration against former club Arsenal on this day in 2009.
Adebayor was punished after he ran the full length of the pitch to celebrate in front of visiting Gunners supporters after he scored in the 80th minute of a Premier League match.
The then 25-year-old had already served a three-match suspension for violent conduct in a separate incident during the 4-2 victory at Eastlands on September 12.

When building same-game parlays, it’s important to build a proper narrative and then make corresponding picks. The Cowboys are dealing with injuries and with pressure coming from ownership to run the football more. We can expect to see a different-looking Dallas offense dominating this matchup which creates a tempting same game parlay with a big payout.

Fall officially kicks off this weekend, bringing it with crisp autumn air, pumpkin spice baby wipes, and harvest season.
These days, we simply saunter into the grocery store and buy whatever we want – regardless of what month it is. But harvest time used to be vital to our survival.
Folks gathered up all the fruits and veggies they carefully cultivated over the summer, storing, jarring, and pickling all they could to sustain themselves over the cold winter months.
If you’re a fan of betting on NFL underdogs, you know the fall is also harvest time at the sportsbook.
