    I want to play with Lionel Messi here in Barcelona: Robert Lewandowski

Lionel Messi is set to leave PSG this summer but his next destination remains unclear. “I want to play with Messi here in Barcelona. He has changed his style in recent years. It is easier to play with players who understand football as deeply as he does,” Lewandowski has told Meczyki. “Messi’s playing style has evolved in recent years. He thinks differently, and positions himself differently on the pitch. He has a unique sense. “We would definitely use it. Where will I put it on…

    Argentina to visit Indonesia for national team friendly

    World Cup winners Argentina will visit Indonesia next month for a friendly against its national team, its top football official said on Wednesday, in a boost for a country that has suffered a succession of recent soccer setbacks.

The announcement comes at a time when Argentina is hosting the Under-20 World Cup as a replacement for Muslim-majority Indonesia, which in March was stripped of the tournament over domestic resistance to the participation of Israel.

    India’s men’s hockey team cut down on flashiness in the quest for structural solidity

    There was no heavy-metal hockey. None of those breathtaking runs or thrilling forward marches. Few speedy counterattacks, fewer risks and almost no flashiness. Change the stripes and sport and it would feel like watching the recent Brazilian football teams – stripped of all the adventure, instinctiveness and fun in their desperation to ape the Europeans. In his first match in charge, Craig Fulton showed he isn’t afraid to tinker with the Indian DNA. He picked simplicity over style, focussed on defence over attack and slowed down the pace immensely. The man who has been one of the masterminds of Belgium’s march to the top of the hockey world wants India…

    Player disqualified at smaller event for smashing racket on umpire’s chair loses at French Open

    Four days after getting disqualified from a smaller tournament for smashing his racket against the umpire’s chair during a match, Swedish tennis player Mikael Ymer was back in competition at the French Open on Sunday, bowing out in the first round. Ymer’s exit this time was far more conventional and far less dramatic: Quite simply, he was outplayed over three sets by No. 17 seed Lorenzo Musetti of Italy and lost 7-5, 6-2, 6-4 on Court 7 at Roland Garros. Was it tough for the 56th-ranked Ymer to set aside what happened at the Lyon Open on Wednesday, when he was defaulted from the contest against French teenager Arthur Fils…

    Nepali sherpa saves Malaysian climber in rare Everest ‘death zone’ rescue

    A Malaysian climber narrowly survived after a Nepali sherpa guide hauled him down from below the summit of Mount Everest in a “very rare” high altitude rescue, a government official said on Wednesday. Gelje Sherpa, 30, was guiding a Chinese client to the 8,849 metre (29,032 feet) Everest summit on May 18 when he saw the Malaysian climber clinging to a rope and shivering from extreme cold in the area called the “death zone”, where temperatures can dip to minus 30 degrees Celsius (86F) or lower. Gelje hauled the climber 600 metres (1,900 feet) down from the Balcony area to the South Col, over a period of about six hours,…

    Premiership: Brad Shields opens up on the hefty sum owed to him by Wasps

    Former England international Brad Shields has opened up on the implications of Wasps’ downfall on himself and his teammates whilst also revealing there is a big sum of money that he is unlikely to receive. Shields moved from the Hurricanes to Wasps in 2018 and had a good stint with the side until financial disaster struck last year when the club was placed under administration. Since then, the club had two deadline extensions to secure funding to pay their creditors but failed to do so, meaning Wasps could not be deemed financially able to compete in the Championship. The result is a fall to the bottom of the rugby pyramid.…

    Olivier Giroud sets out summer transfer window plan

    Speaking to reporters at a French national team press conference, Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud revealed his plans for the summer transfer window. “I will speak to the coach about whether or not he is counting on me. It is true that I have had limited playing time but at one moment or another, it is true that there are things going against me. I am not going to accept another year with such a weak amount of playing time. I will have to think hard with those close to me and my advisors. It will be a deeply considered decision in order to have more playing time.” Click Here: nsw…

    URC: Stormers admit Cape Town Stadium pitch is ‘on its last legs’

    Stormers assistant coach Dawie Snyman is not concerned about the condition of the Cape Town Stadium pitch, but does concede that “it’s on its last legs”. The less than ideal playing surface has been an issue during Stormers’ matches for some time and tore up badly during their 33-21 quarter-final victory over the Bulls on Saturday, especially at scrum time. Big talking point The state of the pitch has been a big talking point since last season as large chunks of turf have been cut up as the campaigns have progressed. However, the issue has been exacerbated this year after a Monster Jam trucking event took place at the venue…
