Man City vs Newcastle: City Goes 3 Points Clear At The Top Of The Table
Premier League defending champions Manchester City are now three points clear at the top of the Premier League Table with a comfortable 5-0 victory over Newcastle United at Etihad Stadium.

Man City vs Newcastle Match Highlights: The game started with the home team dominating and bossing around with the ball, while Newcastle try to contain their threats. The first 45 minutes saw Manchester City leading by two goals to nil, thanks to goals by Raheem Sterling and Aymeric Laporte.
The Citizens were knocked out of the Champions League in the midweek when they lost to Real Madrid 3-1 despite winning the first leg of the semi-final game 4-3 at Etihad. Real Madrid proceeds to the final stage of the competition on a 6-5 aggregate and will face Liverpool who equally triumphed over Villareal on a 6-3 aggregate.
However, Liverpool slipped off the English Premier League title race when they drew 1-1 with Tottenham Hotspurs at Anfield on Saturday. Pep Guardiola’s side sees this as an ample opportunity to go 3 points clear at the top of the table and they utilized it.
Rodri made it three early in the second half when he converted Kevin De Bruyne’s corner kick into the back of the net. Moments later, substitute Phil Foden added the fourth goal and Raheem Sterling was on the score sheet again in the stoppage time to seal a comfortable victory for the Citizens at Etihad.

Team News
Pep Guardiola made four changes from the team that lost to Real Madrid in the second leg of the Champions League tie during the midweek. Kyle Walker, Bernardo Silva, Riyad Mahrez, and Phil Foden all made way for Raheem Sterling, Jack Grealish, Oleksandr Zinchenko, and IIkay Gundogan.
Eddie Howe also made three changes from the squad that last played last weekend. Chris Wood returned to the squad to assume his position upfront with Joelington drifting back to the midfield. Fabian Schar was replaced by Jamaal Lascelles while Sean Longstaff replaced Jonjo Shelvey in the midfield.
Match Analysis
Eight minutes into the first half, Newcastle had a golden chance when Chris Wood’s header was easily gathered by Ederson, with Joelington standing free behind him. It was a huge miss due to inadequate communication from the Newcastle players.
A few moments later, Joao Cancelo took Gundogan’s pass and send a cross to Sterling which the English man nodded to the back of the net to put the home team ahead.

Newcastle almost equalized immediately through Chris Wood if not for Bruno Guimaraes’s offside when he made contact with Jamaal Lascelles’s header.
Martin Dubravka was unable to contain IIkay Gundogan’s long-range shot, he was beaten to the rebound by Ruben Dias before Laporte forced the goal in, to make it 2-0.
Rodri’s near post headed handed Manchester City what seems to be a comfortable victory. Newcastle’s chance of a consolation goal was proved abortive by Ederson who safely put away Callum Wilson’s shot.
Jack Grealish made good work and was the creator of the fourth goal when he passed to Zinchenko, the aftermath of Zinchenko’s cross was a clean sweep by Phil Foden.
In the stoppage time, Raheem Sterling was right on time to convert Jack Grealish’s pass to make it 5-0 comfortable home win for the Guardiola’s side. The unfortunate scenario in the game was an injury to Ruben Dias, that forced him to be substituted at halftime.

Rangers Youngster Sets Celtic Fans Alight with Bold Celebration in Epic Kilmarnock Moment
Rangers Youngster Sets Celtic Fans Alight with Bold Celebration in Epic Kilmarnock Moment!
In a Scottish Premiership clash that had fans on the edge of their seats, Rangers’ loanee Findlay Curtis turned heads with a cheeky celebration that has since gone viral online. The 19-year-old, on loan at Kilmarnock, was at the heart of the drama as his side surged into an early lead against fierce rivals Celtic at Rugby Park — and he didn’t hold back in celebrating it.
Curtis, deployed in a more advanced role for this fixture, made the most of his opportunity. After Tyreece John-Jules opened the scoring and Kilmarnock doubled their advantage, cameras caught the young winger raising his arms and gesturing in celebration directly in front of the Celtic supporters in the away end — a moment that instantly lit up social media.
Although his exuberant celebration was quickly cut short when veteran keeper Kasper Schmeichel ushered him away, the damage was done — pundits and fans alike have been talking about it ever since. That kind of on-field bravado in front of the rival support doesn’t happen every day, and it’s one that will stick in the minds of supporters on both sides.

Whether you see it as passionate football emotion or a bit of mind games, Curtis’ reaction added another unforgettable moment to a season already packed with drama and rivalry — showing once again why the Scottish Premiership never fails to entertain.

End of the Road at Parkhead? Andy Walker Drops Brutal Verdict on Celtic’s Japanese Duo
“Are Celtic’s Japanese Stars Past Their Best? Andy Walker Predicts End of the Road for Maeda & Hatate”
Recent pundit commentary has stirred fresh debate among fans of Celtic Football Club, with veteran analyst Andy Walker making bold claims about two of the team’s key Japanese players — Daizen Maeda and Reo Hatate. Walker’s verdict? This could be the final chapter at Parkhead for both players if they don’t turn their seasons around.
Struggles on the Pitch
Walker’s view stems from both men’s current dip in form. Hatate, normally a creative midfield presence, was recently scrutinised after a costly mistake led to a penalty for Livingston — and Walker suggested it might be time for him to lose his place temporarily in the starting XI to find confidence again.
Meanwhile, Maeda — who once electrified Scottish football with blistering pace and a PFA Player of the Year-winning season — has yet to recapture that spark this campaign. The forward is playing well below the high standards he set previously, and Walker believes both he and Hatate may have run their course at Celtic unless they rediscover their best form before the season ends.
Why This Matters
Walker’s assessment resonates beyond just match performance:
- Maeda’s Blocked Transfer: Earlier in the season, Maeda openly admitted he wanted a move away — only for Celtic to block it — and pundits speculated this block may have affected his focus and sharpness.
- Legacy and Timing: If both players fail to make a strong impact before the campaign’s conclusion, Walker argues their legacies at Celtic could be overshadowed by disappointment rather than remembered for their earlier success.
The Bigger Picture
Celtic’s squad is at a crossroads. With new tactics, fresh faces and evolving expectations under manager Brendan Rodgers, long-serving players must justify their place or risk being phased out. Walker’s blunt but insightful commentary has sparked fresh debate among supporters over who should lead the club forward — and who’s time might be running out.

Adrie van der Poel deelt verontrustend bericht over Mathieu
Wout van Aert kende een dramatische afloop aan de cross in Mol, maar ook Mathieu van der Poel kwam niet ongeschonden uit deze wedstrijd. De Nederlander had het bijzonder koud, en kwam zelf eerder ook ten val. Vader Adrie zag daar een probleem.
Valpartij had invloed
Nochtans maakte Van der Poel duidelijk dat hij geen schade heeft overgehouden aan zijn tuimeling: “Eigenlijk viel ik zelfs nog zacht”, aldus de Nederlander. “Ik kreeg gewoon mijn voet niet uit mijn klikpedaal in het zand, waardoor ik stomweg omviel. Maar ik heb er gelukkig geen last van.”
Zo zag vader Adrie het echter niet tijdens de wedstrijd. In een interview met Sporza stelde hij immers dat Van der Poel last ondervond van zijn eerdere valpartij, eerder nog dan van de koude. Al voegde Adrie er ook wel aan toe dat zijn zoon niet bepaald staat te springen voor een koers in de sneeuw.
Van der Poel viseert enkel de koude
Reken daarbij nog de haast ondragelijke koude, en we kregen een verkleumde Van der Poel te zien na de finish. In zijn interviews achteraf stond hij nog steeds te bibberen, en maakte de wereldkampioen duidelijk dat hij behoorlijk hard had afgezien.
“Het was geen aangename cross. Ik heb het nu al een beetje warmer, maar ik heb zeker veel koud geleden vandaag”, luidde het bij MVDP. “Je weet ook dat wanneer je nadien weer opwarmt, het vijf minuten echt veel pijn gaat doen. Met dat gevoel was ik de laatste rondes al bezig.”
Voor Van der Poel was de conclusie dan ook duidelijk: “Dit was de moeilijkste wedstrijd van het jaar. Na een tijd hadden mijn handen en voeten zo veel koud dat het niet meer vanzelf ging.” Nu maar hopen dat vader Adrie toch geen gelijk krijgt over een mogelijke blessure, die door onderkoeling mogelijk onder de radar zou zijn gebleven.
