Liverpool concede title with Leicester loss

0

Liverpool endured another shocking defeat away at the King Power Stadium to Leicester City, with goals from Harvey Barnes, James Maddison and Jamie Vardy late in the second half spelling out the doom for the reigning Premier League champions. 

The first goal saw James Maddison nick one from a free-kick with Alisson’s view blocked. However, an offside call from the linesman was ruled out by VAR, the technology awarding a goal for seemingly the first time.

The second goal was the tipping point in the match, which saw Ozan Kabak and Alisson have a horrendous piece of miscommunication between each other. The Brazilian often sweeps up after the advanced centre-backs but collided with Kabak in an attempt to clear out a long ball played into their half. 

This set up Jamie Vardy to shoot into an open net before Harvey Barnes buried the match off of a break to seal all three points for the hosts. 

Liverpool now finds themselves with 40 points from 24 games played, and could find themselves out of the top 4 should Chelsea win their fixture against Newcastle United on Monday. 

To be fair, it only took Liverpool one set of very, very infamous errors from Karius to effectively end his time at the career. However, as of late, Alisson has not been giving the fans any confidence either. His blunders against Manchester City and now against Leicester will leave fans in serious doubt about his form. 

In the post match interview, an extremely emotional Jürgen Klopp conceded the title, claiming that their hopes of defending the title were essentially over after the 3-1 loss to his predecessor as Liverpool coach. Things have been even more difficult for the German given a personal tragedy that has struck him, shaking him to his core. 

Liverpool will be hoping to turn things around in their next outing in the Merseyside derby against Everton at Anfield.

Cristiano Ronaldo becomes the first person to have 500 million followers on Social Media platforms

Juventus star Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the best footballers to have ever graced the football pitch. The former Real Madrid man has won 5 Ballon d’Ors along with various other team and individual awards.

Other than his on-field brilliance, he is also very popular off the field. He has a huge fanbase as he played for three big clubs in his career. After starting with Sporting CP, he has played for Manchester United and Real Madrid and is currently playing for Serie A side Juventus.

Cristiano Ronaldo has now made another record. He becomes the first person to cross the 500 million followers mark across Instagram, Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Ronaldo currently has 262 million followers on Instagram, 147 million followers on Facebook and 91 million followers on Twitter. He has a huge fanbase owing to all his football success.

Until now, the Portuguese captain has won all the trophies on offer both on individual, club and country level except the FIFA World Cup. The 2022 Qatar World Cup would most probably be his last shot at winning the most coveted trophy.

This time Portugal has many world-class talents in their team other than Ronaldo. They have Bruno Fernandes, Diogo Jota and Joao Felix among many others. Cristiano Ronaldo has a very realistic chance of ending his international career with a World Cup win as he himself is in a great run of form.

Cristiano Ronaldo is ageing just like old wine.

Top 10 highest-earning football players on Social Media in 2021

Footballers lead a very luxurious life which is possible only because of their huge earnings. They earn from their football clubs and also from endorsements. Social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok have become an important source of income for footballers nowadays.

The research, carried out by luxury clothing retailer Aphrodite, analysed follower count, value per post, and post frequency to calculate an estimated yearly fee for each player. 

Here we take a look at the top 10 highest-earning football players on Social Media in 2021:

Footballer earnings Combined Top 10 highest-earning football players on Social Media in 2021

Social media has been a key way for fans to keep up to date with their favourite players during the past year of restrictions placed on professional football. While some teams have resumed play, stadiums look set to remain closed for many spectators. 

Commenting on the findings, Duncan McKenzie from Aphrodite said: “Many footballers have gained immense followings across social media platforms in recent years, and it acts as a way of appealing to a new generation of fans, too. 

What happens off the pitch is constantly shaping the nature of the game, and new stars can be born from social media rather than scoring actual goals”. 

Note:

  • Information was gathered using Instagram analysis, and footballers chosen for the data sample were done so based on their follower count. 
  • Instagram average post value is calculated based on a value per follower of £0.005 based on data from Inkifi. 
  • Data was correct as of 11/01/2021

Rohit Sharma finally shuts his critics by an excellent 161 during the India Vs England second Test, Day 1

0

Indian opening batsman, Rohit Sharma with his brilliant 161-run knock has shut the mouths of his critics during the second Test against England at MA Chidambaram Stadium on Saturday. The Indian opener was the centre of a lot of criticism after a series of low performances. But during the second Test against England, he proved to everyone why he is called the ‘Hitman’.

Amidst the list of 203 batsmen, who have a score of at least 1500 runs at home, Rohit Sharma reached that milestone during the opening day of the second test against England, only one batsman, who after Don Bradman did much better. The Hitman has now seven hundred in 23 innings for India, four of which have been 150-plus scores, and only once he was dismissed for less than 150 after he passed his century.

“We knew about how the pitch was prepared. We knew it was gonna turn and so we had a good few training sessions before the game began and we trained according to what we were going to expect in the middle,” said Rohit in the virtual press conference on Saturday.

“So basically using you feat a lot more, making sure you sweep the ball and those kinds of things when you play on turning pitches. You gotta be proactive. You should be on top of the bowler making sure you are ahead of him was very crucial,” he added.

Rohit hit an exceptional 161 runs bejewelled with 18 fours and two sixes and a rock-solid and important partnership with vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane. The solid duo added 162 runs with fourth wickets before Moeen Ali sent Rohit Sharma back in the 73rd over.

In an interview, the right-handed opening batsman said commanding the bowlers was in his plan on this turning track in Chennai’s M.A Chidambaram. India was already suffering the loss of three wickets during the first session, but Rohit displayed a brilliant batting performance by attacking the bowlers all around the ground for boundaries.

“So little adjustment based on that and understanding if the ball is turning how big is the turn whether it is bouncing or whether it is keeping low. Those were the things that I was thinking about before playing any shot,” said Rohit.


“So yeah, mentally before the game I was prepared of what I will be facing the ones I get in and I think the preparation really helped in terms of getting out there and playing shots,” he added.

With three wickets for India in the final hour of play finished the opening day of the second Test being slightly in the favour of England after Hitman Rohit Sharma’s exceptional knock had made the base for India’s innings up on Saturday.

Team India lost Rohit at 161 runs, Vice- Captain Ajinkya Rahane at 67 runs, and R. Ashwin at 15 in the final hour of the play. At stumps, India’s score was 300/6 with Rishabh Pant and Axar Patel both at 33 and 5 runs respectively.

Jamie Carragher hails Jamie Vardy as the best signing in history

0

In an era of football where money spent on players does the talking, it is not very likely to see a £1 million signing almost single-handedly push the club into Europe from the Championship. 

However, that is the exceptional story of one Jamie Vardy, who joined Leicester from non-league club Fleetwood Town in 2012, and almost a decade later, is arguably one of the best strikers in the world, if not only in the Premier League. 

‘That’s one of many reasons why there may never be a better transfer than Vardy’s from Fleetwood Town to Leicester – not just in the Premier League era, but in football history,’ said Jamie Carragher in his column for the Telegraph.

‘I am always reluctant to definitively declare anyone or anything is ‘the best ever’. It can only be a matter of opinion. But if you were compiling a list of the greatest, most influential signings and judging it on value for money, who eclipses Vardy?

‘We can talk about many transfers which changed the course of Premier League history, such as Eric Cantona joining Manchester United, Dennis Bergkamp to Arsenal, Yaya Toure or David Silva moving to Manchester City, or Virgil van Dijk joining Liverpool.

‘They were established, international players and household names heading to clubs already building towards titles – the finishing touch to emerging teams.

‘The Vardy story stands alone in that he joined Leicester for £1 million directly from non-league football and defied expectations. Whenever the story of English football is told to future generations, they will talk about Leicester before and after Vardy’s arrival.’

The 34-year-old has managed to find the back of the net 144 times in 333 appearances, with his most recent strike being essential in taking three points off of reigning champions Liverpool at the King Power Stadium. 

Manchester United was interested in Ismaila Sarr

Manchester United was interested to sign Ismaila Sarr last summer. The agent of the Senegalese has confirmed that the Red Devils are interested to sign him.

Ismaila Sarr joined Watford in 2019 for £27m from Rennes. He made his mark in his first season at Premier League. He made 30 appearances for Watford in his breakthrough season and scored 6 times. His brace against Liverpool last season is one of the best performances. He also provided 5 assists for Watford last season. This season he has already made 25 appearances for them and scored 5 goals.

His attacking abilities caught the eyes of many other big Premier League clubs. Manchester United Liverpool and many other clubs wanted the 22 years old.

It was rumoured that Manchester United is the front runner to sign Ismaila Sarr. Manchester United was linked to some of the exciting talents last summer to solve their winger issues.

Speaking in a recent interview with Panafricalfootball, the agent of Ismaila Sarr revealed how close his agent was to join the Red Devils. He said, “During the summer, the Manchester club wanted to sign the Senegalese forward.”

“At the last moment, they offered a loan without an option, which Watford didn’t accept because the loan was expected to be accompanied by an option with right of first refusal for the Manchester club.”

In January, Manchester United finally signed 18 years old Facundo Pellisti in the summer as the winger before they signed Amad Diallo. Sarr could have been an excellent addition to the Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad.
