Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich goals reflected Leverkusen’s superiority and made it 47 unbeaten for the German champions Here’s the match report: Thanks for reading tonight and thank you for emailing in. Especially you, Peter Oh. Bye for now. That was another sublime performance from Bayer Leverkusen.Best porn XXX. Xabi Alonso has built an endlessly efficient side who seem to outclass their opponents almost by stealth. They often don’t seem to do anything flash, but have a handy knack of keeping possession, passing the ball around their opponents, and staying solid at the back. They can hit you quickly on the break or pass the ball through you – and they often punish opposition errors ruthlessly. If there is a criticism tonight it’s that they should have probably have won 3-0 or 4-0. A quick hit from Reuters before our proper match report arrives: Goals by Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich gave Bayer Leverkusen a 2-0 advantage over AS Roma in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday. The newly-crowned Bundesliga champions and German Cup finalists took the lead through Wirtz before the half-hour mark when the midfielder scored with a simple low finish, capitalising on Roma’s defensive error. Andrich doubled the advantage in the 73rd minute, leaving Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar with no chance when he fired an unstoppable shot from outside the box and under the bar. The second leg will be played in Leverkusen next Thursday and the winner of the tie will face Olympique de Marseille or Atalanta in the final on May 22 at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium. Here are two words that will send a shiver down the spine of every Chelsea fan: pure profit. In a world dominated by considerations around the Premier League’s financial regulations, they cannot help but fret about their homegrown talents being sold off to protect the bottom line. Here’s Ben Fisher’s report from Villa Park and the Europa Conference League: “As much as it pains me to say it, having fallen in love with Roma during the heyday of Daniele de Rossi and Francesco Totti, this tie is probably over,” emails Kári Tulinius. “I’ve watched a lot of Leverkusen this season, and they just don’t do collapses.” Jeremie Frimpong has a chat with TNT Sports: “We knew it was going to be hard coming here,” says the tricky and impressive winger. “Roma’s a good team. We stayed focused and we’re happy. I think every game when we play we want to win. We wanted to get the goals here. And that’s what we did today.” “You’re fast, aren’t you?” observes Matt Smith. “Yeah, yeah.” Frimpong laughs. “Genetics, genetics, you know.” On the second leg: “They have to come to our house, and to come to our house is difficult. We can’t wait for the second leg. “I think motivation is easy [after wining the league]. We’re still in tournaments. It’s easy to get motivated. Everybody thinks we’ve done it [the Bundesliga] so we’re going to calm down, but there’s more trophies out there. “I think, next week, we can play even better.” Smalling was certainly at fault for the first goal. It was a speculative long ball that bounced high around halfway. Smalling failed to deal with it, allowing the far shorter Adli to out jump him. Smalling’s reaction was noticeable when the ball ended up in the back of the net too. He was distraught. They just replayed Andrich’s goal. Svilar was literally rooted to the spot. Open-mouthed in wonder. Beaten all ends up. What a lovely hit. Aston Villa 2-4 Olympiakos was how it finished in the Conference League semi-final: Here is David Hytner’s report from Chelsea 2-0 Tottenham: Marseille 1-1 Atalanta is a final score from the other semi-final first leg. Roma had 53% possession, and seven attempts to Leverkusen’s 12. Roma had three on target, the German side four. Roma completed 439 of 530 passes to 351 of 430 for Leverkusen. Those stats are not as sobering for Roma as you might think, given the one-sided nature of the game. That is 47 games unbeaten for Leverkusen, but perhaps more importantly, that is also a place in the Europa League final – unless Roma can stage something absolutely spectacular over in Germany. 90 min + 3: Oh. My. Days. A hopeful cross from the left causes panic for Leverkusen – very rare panic – when Kovar comes to punch but doesn’t make it. The ball ends up floating back across the open goal where Tammy Abraham is waiting. He snatches at his header from about three yards and sends it up and over the crossbar. What a miss! What a chance to take something for Roma! 90 min + 2: Pellegrini belts a cross over from the Roma right. Leverkusen deal with it easily. Kossounou comes off the bench for the German champions. Grimaldo goes off. 90 min: We will have four minutes of added time. Can De Rossi’s Roma grab a lifeline? 90 min: Villa are losing 4-2. Think of the coefficient, lads! 88 min: Frimpong is immediately withdrawn for Palacios. I wouldn’t fancy wearing Leverkusen colours in the Eternal City tonight, I must say. 87 min: Frimpong makes more inroads into the Roma defence from the Leverkusen right wing, wriggling away from a tackle or two with the ball seemingly glued to his feet. “He’s like a little electric eel!” says our commentator, Ian Darke. Which is fair. 85 min: A quick VAR check for a possible handball by Tah. Nothing doing for Roma. 84 min: Huge chance for the hosts! Pellegrini strokes a decisive low pass into the penalty area for Azmoun, just off the bench. He’s on the edge of the six-yard box with a clear sight of goal but completely mishits his shot – in fairness because Hincapie, the Leverkusen defender, is on hand to put him off. 83 min: Chelsea 2-0 Spurs FT 82 min: Azmoun and Baldanzi on for Roma. Lukaku and Paredes off. For Leverkusen, Tella and Hofmann on, for Adli and Wirtz. 80 min: Spinazzola, Cristante, Xhaka and Andrich have all been booked. Spinazzola and Xhaka for the pushing and shoving after the goal. Not sure what sparked that, maybe some over-zealous celebrating. So, the goal: Leverkusen hold another masterclass in playing the ball out from the back. The defenders exchange a few tidy passes before Xhaka is released in space in a central position around halfway. Grimaldo is in turn released by a fine searching pass by Xhaka, and chases the ball down the right channel. He turns back, recycling possession with a chipped pass back for Frimpong, who feeds Stanisic, who plays it back to Andrich just outside the box. With the Roma defence out of shape, Andrich has time to set himself and stroke a quite wonderful looping, curling shot that rockets across and over the goalkeeper and into the top corner. Wow. Svilar can only watch it sail over his head and into the net- he barely even moves. What a goal, both the buildup and the finish. There is a big dust-up involving loads of players after a brilliant goal by Andrich. That is special! 71 min: On co-commentary Robbie Savage says Roma seem to lack a bit of energy, which is true, but I reckon that’s just down the fitness and skill levels of Leverkusen, not to mention their positional discipline. 70 min: Frimpong has a sight of goal from an angle but doesn’t get his head over the ball and it rockets over the bar and into the stand. 68 min: The minutes tick away and Roma continue to struggle to exert any kind of pressure on the visiting defence. There are some concerned and frustrated faces in red shirts. It’s disheartening for them that Leverkusen are comfortably keeping them at arm’s length, like a boxer just waiting to deliver the knockout blow. 66 min: The Leverkusen fans are pictured partying up in the stands. It’s looking like 47 unbeaten for them … 63 min: Tapsoba tees up Grimaldo for a shot that flies wide. 62 min: The former Manchester City defender Angelino comes on, with Karsdorp going off for Roma. An unpleasant night for Karsdorp but it’s hardly as if his mistake will be decisive if the tie continues like this. Leverkusen will ease into the final unless Roma can somehow turn this tide. 60 min: Another corner for Roma. Lukaku is pictured in close-up looking a bit fed up. Which is not surprising: he’s hardly got into this game at all, although it’s not for lack of effort. Roma have built nothing in terms of a possession-based game that Lukaku needs to thrive, by taking the ball to feet and looking to turn in the penalty area. 56 min: Again the Roma pressing isn’t great: Andrich has time to gather the ball about 30 yards out, turn, and size up another shot from distance that swerves well wide. Not the best effort, but certainly not good defensively from Roma, either. 55 min: Chance for Roma! Dybala swings in a corner. Cristante flicks it downwards at the near post: He’s looking for goal, I reckon, but he doesn’t get enough on it and the ball bounces up beyond the far post and out for a goal kick. Someone could have got on the end of that. Both Dybala and Cristante make their frustration clear. 54 min: Perhaps fortified by some half time refreshments, the crowd are keeping up a very decent level of noise as they cheer Roma on. But the home team have rarely threatened. They are being starved of possession while their errors are being punished, most notably when Karsdorp’s scuffed back pass led to the goal. 53 min: Wirtz spreads the play to Adli on the Leverkusen left. Stanisic is lurking in the middle and Adli, having advanced into a gaping hole down that flank, tries to cut the ball back to him – but Roma can intercept and clear. 51 min: Leverkusen win a corner that Hincapie tries to nod goalwards. It’s a good chance – he’s in space and just a few yards from goal – but he can’t get over the ball after an awkward bounce. 48 min: Roma stroke the ball around in midfield and try to get something going. But they are mostly being forced back, or at least sideways, by Leverkusen’s positional discipline. In the end, Spinazzola bends a rather hopeful low cross over from the Roma left that evades everyone. Karsdorp is rushing on to it at the far post and has a chance to hit a shot albeit from a tight angle. No matter, he completely misses his kick anyway. 47 min: No changes for either side at the break. The official attendance is 64,073. Can Roma get back into this? And while you’re here, why not support The Guardian? Thanks, we do appreciate it. Taha Hashim has Villa 1-2 Olympiacos: Simon Burnton has Chelsea 1-0 Tottenham here: The positive to cling to for Roma is that this tie could conceivably be over already. Alonso’s side are mesmerisingly good. “I’m not surprised that the visitors are finding loads of real estate in Rome,” emails Peter Oh. “After all, it’s a Bayer’s market.” 45 min: A touch of late pressure for Roma. El Shaarawy creates a chance for a cross and Tapsoba is forced to head the ball out for a corner. Nothing comes from the set-piece though and suddenly Roma are facing a fluid, fast Leverkusen counter led by Wirtz. It’s very, very nearly 2-0 but Roma escape after a bit of penalty-area pinball. Leverkusen are just too damn good. 42 min: And there is a chance for Roma, after all! Lukaku takes it to feet with his back to goal on the edge of the penalty area but rather than gather it he plays a good first-time pass for Pellegrini, teeing his teammate up for a shot. Pellegrini bends a powerful right-footed effort that curls just wide and sends Kovar’s water bottle flying. 41 min: Now Andrich, the Leverkusen central midfielder, cracks a powerful shot from 25 yards. Svilar saves but unconvincingly: That was a sweet strike that was moving in the air. Roma have not had a sniff of goal since that Lukaku header against the bar, and that feels a long time ago now. 40 min: Marseille 1-1 Atalanta is a latest score in the other semi. 38 min: Wirtz is bossing this, often dropping into the hole behind the forwards in Scholes-esque fashion. He takes the ball about 30 yards out but no one closes him down. He tees up the ball for a shot and bangs a looping effort that flies wide of Svilar’s goal. This match is passing Roma by. 36 min: There is a flare-up in midfield involving Karsdorp and Adli. I think it was Roma’s ball but Adli grabbed it and Karsdorp gave his opponent a shove. Unfortunately for Roma that’s the only way they are able to get close to their opponents at the moment. 34 min: Roma are being battered now. From out on the left wing, Grimaldo squares with surgical precision for Frimpong, who swivels and hits a left-footed shot first time from about 10 yards. It squirts just wide. 31 min: More liquid football from Leverkusen: Frimpong sprints into space down their right wing and cuts back for Wirtz, whose powerful first-time sidefooted effort is saved by Svilar. The Roma defence were at sixes and sevens there. It looks effortless from Leverkusen, and that’s one of the things that makes it so impressive. Roma are under pressure after Smalling fails to deal with a bouncing long ball around halfway, and the far smaller Adli outjumps him. The Dutch defender, Karsdorp, then tries to play a backpass with the outside of his right boot, looking for the keeper from out near the touchline. But he underhits it horribly and straight into the path of Grimaldo. It’s immediately a three-on-one, although that’s three Leverkusen players v Svilar in goal. The Spaniard strolls into the penalty area and squares for Wirtz, who rolls a finish calmly into the far corner of the net. What a terrible error by Karsdorp. He hangs his head in shame. Calamity for Karsdorp! 26 min: Roma have a free-kick, which is central but a good 35 yards out, and Dybala tries a shot. It flies over the goal and never looks likely to trouble the scorers. 23 min: After being fed by a fine ball by Xhaka, Wirtz slides a delightful Toni Kroos-style pass for Frimpong through on the Leverkusen right that tears the home defence open … Frimpong is in, one on-one, but directs his shot just wide of Svilar’s goal as the keeper rushes out to meet him and narrow the angle! To use a well-worn co-commentator’s phrase: He’ll be disappointed with that.

The already-short-handed New York Knicks may have suffered another setback. Knicks forward Josh Hart appeared to suffer an abdominal injury in the Knicks’ Game 6 loss to the Indiana Pacers. Hart suffered the injury in the first quarter and was in and out of the game over the next two periods. He was ruled out for good in the fourth quarter with what the Knicks called “abdominal soreness.” It’s been a brutal season of injuries for the Knicks.Best porn XXX. Entering Game 6, they were already without Julius Randle, Bojan Bogdanovic (who got hurt in Game 4 of the first-round series), Mitchell Robinson (who was ruled out after Game 1 against the Pacers), and OG Anunoby, who strained his hamstring in Game 2 and has been day-to-day since. All season long, the Knicks have shrugged off these injuries, repeating the same mantra: they have more than enough to win. Both Tom Thibodeau and Donte DiVincenzo used that line following Game 6. However, Jalen Brunson on Friday ceded that the Knicks have had extraordinarily bad luck this postseason when it comes to health. Asked about Hart’s injury, Brunson said “add it to the list.” “I wasn’t necessarily worried or anything [about Hart], but I guess you can just add it to the list,” Brunson said. It may not seem like much, but it’s as close to an admission that the Knicks are reeling as they have given all season. “There’s been a lot of things, obviously, [that] physically don’t go our way with our team this year,” Brunson said. “But I think our main focus is that whoever we have out there, regardless of what you’re dealing with or anything, if you’re out there, you’re ready to go. That’s just been our mindset.” Brunson has embodied that mindset as well as any Knick this series. Brunson suffered an apparent foot injury in Game 2 and was said to be experiencing foot soreness over the following two games. Despite poor performances in Games 3 and 4, Brunson insisted that if he’s playing, he’s healthy. Still, if Hart is limited or misses Game 7, it may be the straw that breaks the camel’s back for the Knicks. Hart has been a monster rebounder for the Knicks this postseason (12.2 per game) while filling in on scoring, playing physical defense, and making intangible hustle plays each game. The Knicks do have one advantage going for them heading into Game 7: Madison Square Garden. It’s been nearly 30 years since the Knicks’ last Game 7 at home, but in a series where the home team has won every game, a raucous home crowd might be enough to push the Knicks across the finish line. Scott Davis has been covering the Knicks and NBA for over a decade, most recently with Business Insider from 2014 to 2023. He has interviewed everyone from star players and coaches to high-profile trainers, while reporting on trade demands, free agency rumors and more.

Chelsea’s players have been left shocked by Mauricio Pochettino leaving his post as head coach by mutual consent after less than a year in the job. Pochettino had strong support from his players after a positive end to his first season in charge and news of his departure has not gone down well in the dressing room.Best porn XXX. The mood was summed up by a senior player expressing concern at the constant upheaval at Chelsea, who have already been through five managers since being purchased by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital two years ago. A source close to another player said his client could not believe the news. Signs that Chelsea were moving in the right direction under Pochettino had left his young team feeling optimistic about the future. There is widespread unhappiness that the Argentinian has been allowed to leave after holding talks with the co-sporting directors, Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley, and the influential co-controlling owner, Behdad Eghbali. The fear for the players is that Chelsea, who will have some form of European qualification next season, will be back to square one with a new head coach. It has not gone unnoticed that many players have flocked to social media to thank Pochettino, who was popular because of his man-management skills. Nicolas Jackson uploaded a picture of himself with Pochettino and accompanied it with “facepalm” emojis. “Love you, coach. Wish we could stay together more,” wrote the striker. “But may God continue to bless you and your family.” Gaffer, thank you for everything you have done for me & making my dreams come true. All the best 💙 pic.twitter.com/TQsfgNqFf9 Cole Palmer, who excelled under Pochettino after joining from Manchester City, wrote: “Gaffer, thank you for everything you have done for me and making my dreams come true. All the best.” Moisés Caicedo, Chelsea’s record signing, posted a picture of himself with Pochettino with a crying emoji and said: “Mister! It was a pleasure.” Raheem Sterling said: “Thank you for everything Coach. Good luck for the next chapter.” Chelsea’s former captain John Terry, who works in the academy, posted on Instagram that he was gutted to see Pochettino and his staff leave. “I just hope we don’t sign or sell any players until we get a manager in,” Terry added. Chelsea hope to make a swift appointment. They are competing with Brighton for Ipswich’s Kieran McKenna and are monitoring Brentford’s Thomas Frank, Leicester’s Enzo Maresca, Stuttgart’s Sebastien Hoeness and Girona’s Míchel. There is long-standing interest in Burnley’s Vincent Kompany, who is also a target for Bayern Munich.

The 2024 Olympics once again contains football, and a few Premier League clubs are set to lose some important players. The Games only come around once every four years, and due to the age limit applied in the men’s tournament, top-flight clubs don’t often suffer too badly. In Paris, only footballers born on or after 1 January 2001 can play, with the Games permitting just three exceptions per squad.Best porn XXX. That does still mean several Premier League players will represent their nations at the Olympics, meaning they’ll be almost certain to miss the start of the 2024/25 season. Here, talkSPORT.com has a look at which Premier League clubs are set to lose players to the Games. Julian Alvarez – Manchester City – Argentina Of all the Premier League players to be called up to the Olympics, Alvarez is the biggest name. The versatile forward is a key player for club and country and just helped Argentina win the Copa America. But there is no rest for him, as he’s heading straight to Paris to play in the 2024 Olympics. Julio Enciso – Brighton – Paraguay Enciso barely played any football for Brighton last year due to a long-term knee injury. However, that hasn’t stopped his country from calling him up for the Olympics, just weeks after he also featured in the Copa America. Certainly, it’s a good opportunity for Brighton’s 20-year-old sensation, but it’s hard to imagine the Seagulls will be too pleased. Enso Gonzalez – Wolves – Paraguay Gonzalez is a current member of Wolves’ Under-21 squad, having joined last summer from Libertad in Paraguay. He is a winger who can operate on either side and has made one senior appearance for the Old Gold. But other than that, he’s yet to settle into life in England, failing to provide a goal contribution in any game for Wolves’ Under-21s so far. Henry Gray – Ipswich – New Zealand Gray is a young goalkeeper who was born in Germany but has chosen to represent the Kiwis. He signed for the Tractor Boys last summer and spent the second half of last season out on loan at National League South side Chelmsford. Unsurprisingly, he is yet to make his first-team debut for Ipswich. Jean-Philippe Mateta – Crystal Palace – France At the end of the 2023/24 Premier League season, there weren’t many better strikers in the division than Mateta. Under Oliver Glasner’s guidance, the powerful forward came into a new lease of life and scored nine times in the last six games. He will undoubtedly play a key role this year, but first, he wants to win Olympic gold alongside former Eagles pal Michael Olise on home soil. Alex Paulsen – Bournemouth – New Zealand Paulsen is a 22-year-old goalkeeper who joined Bournemouth this summer from Wellington Phoenix. He has one senior cap for the Kiwis and is likely to be their number one in Paris. For the Cherries, he’ll likely provide competition for Neto. Gabriel Slonina – Chelsea – United States Slonina is one of Chelsea’s young players, and he’s in the US Olympic team. The 20-year-old joined the Blues in August 2022 and has been out on loan ever since. He is yet to make a first-team appearance for Chelsea, so Enzo Maresca is unlikely to miss him too much. Boubacar Traore – Wolves – Mali Traore is a 22-year-old who is yet to be capped by his country at senior level. The defensive midfielder joined Wolves permanently last summer after an initial season-long loan deal. He doesn’t start many games for the Old Gold, but he is an important squad member. Lesley Ugochukwu – Chelsea – France Ugochukwu joined the Blues last summer from Rennes in a deal worth £23 million. But due to midfield competition and a few injuries, he was limited to just 12 Premier League appearances. He will hope this year is better, although missing a big chunk of pre-season for the Olympics doesn’t seem like the perfect preparation. The football at the Olympics is set to start on Wednesday, July 24 and will end on Saturday, August 10. This is just six days before the start of the top-flight campaign, meaning any top-flight payer at the Olympics stands almost no chance of making the opening weekend, even if they are eliminated earlier in the tournament. There are some players, like Alvarez and Enciso, who are yet to have a proper break, having gone from the Premier League to the Copa America to the Olympics. FIFPro guidelines state that footballers should have four weeks off between seasons to rest and recover, which could mean City and Brighton are without either until late September. Meanwhile, the other players who’ve had holidays and not been involved in any international tournaments are likely to be back with their clubs a couple of weeks into the season.
