Kiev’s “Dynamo” congratulated Ukrainian boxer, world champion in the WBC, WBO, WBA and IBO heavyweight divisions Oleksandr Usyk on his victory over Tyson Fury in the rematch held yesterday by unanimous decision of the judges.

“Our champion!!! Oleksandr Usyk won against Tyson Fury for the second time in a rematch.

2:0. We are proud of you, Cossack!”, — said the message from “Dynamo” on the club’s Telegram channel.

This is already Usyk's second victory over Fury: the first fight also ended in victory for the Ukrainian, with the only difference being that it was determined by a split decision of the judges.

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim admitted that he will help the Brazilian forward Antony regain his former form.

“He needs more confidence. If you remember Antony at Ajax, he currently lacks confidence in one-on-one situations. He will improve in this aspect.

He works very hard and tries. Antony is moving more into the depth of the field rather than to the flank. He just needs to work stubbornly, and I will help him become better as a player,” Amorim is quoted by Sky Sports.

Famous Italian football insider Fabrizio Romano has denied information regarding negotiations between Paul Pogba and Manchester City.

Real Sociedad midfielder Martin Subi mendi explained why he decided to refuse a transfer to Liverpool in the summer of 2024.

- I went on vacation, and during that time, representatives of Liverpool contacted me. It was not what I had planned. I felt uncomfortable at that moment, but I weighed all the pros and cons and decided to stay at Sociedad.

I do not believe in once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. If you want to achieve something, you will definitely have opportunities. There is no need to rush.

I look at myself, my development, and the club's project. I stayed because I understood the importance of this season and my steps this season. This decision was not difficult. There were a lot of reasons for the decision, but I acted selfishly because it was better for me, - said Martin Subi mendi.

“Manchester United” has agreed to sign left-back Diego Leon from “Cerro Porteño,” reports football insider Fabrizio Romano.

According to the source, “Manchester United” and “Cerro Porteño” reached an agreement for Leon’s transfer, but the Paraguayan will join the Mancunians in the summer of 2025, when the player turns 18 years old. The transfer fee for the player will be 4 million dollars.

The former striker of Vorskla and Oleksandriya, Serhiy Chuychenko, expressed his opinion about the performance of Ukrainian clubs in the European Cups:

"Of course, I expected more from Kyiv's Dynamo. Somehow they didn't manage to perform well in this season’s European Cups. For the first time in history, Dynamo showed such results. They scored only one goal and lost all matches. Perhaps in the two remaining games, the Kyiv team will find their form and earn points for Ukraine. Although the opponents in the form of Galatasaray and RFSh are also strong. But it all depends on the mood of Dynamo and how they will play."

Regarding Shakhtar, it can be said that the Donetsk team, in principle, played quite well in some matches. And at least the miners took 4 points! But I want our teams to earn more points for Ukraine in the UEFA coefficient table. I want to emphasize that we are counting on Shakhtar and Dynamo to gather points for Ukraine! This is necessary so that in the coming seasons more of our teams can play on the European Cup stage."

Manchester City forward Erling Haaland commented on his team’s defeat in the 17th round of the English championship against Aston Villa.

“Of course, we are disappointed. Our confidence leaves much to be desired. We know how important confidence is, and you can see how it affects every person. So we need to keep going and maintain a positive attitude, even if it’s hard.

Guardiola has won the Premier League six times over the years, and we will never forget that. Pep will find a solution. He does it every year. We still believe in him, and now we need to work harder than ever,” said Haaland’s words, the club’s press service reports.

Leading Manchester City defender Ruben Dias has been sidelined for a certain period due to a muscle injury, announced the team’s head coach Pep Guardiola.

— Ruben will be out for a long time. The recovery period is three to four weeks — it’s a muscle injury. He played 75 minutes against Manchester United and felt discomfort. But due to his desire to play, he continued playing injured, — said Pep Guardiola.
