England Women played a great innings against West Indies Women. They set a huge target of 345 runs in 50 overs which was tough for West Indies Women. But they started well. At the beginning of the second innings the score was a bit low but they managed to keep the wickets. I was a little optimistic to see the partnership of Hayley Matthews and Qiana Joseph. Maybe they could have given a competitive match today but they could not do that. Since the break of this pair, West Indies Women kept losing wickets which created a big problem. Only Aaliyah Alleyne played an innings of 47 runs but the others could not do much. Due to which they had to lose the match by a big margin.
In female cricket, I have never seen a team won at 5+ targets. The England women's team collected a huge 5 runs. England was unlikely to be defeated after such a big collection. The West Indies team was able to get a good start. The two openers batted well, but the West Indies women's innings stopped at 20. The West Indies women's team defeated the match by 5 runs. This series will be held in 5 ODI matches. I don't think we will see the West Indies women's team win in a match. This is England's home series. The England team is well aware of their pitch and it is very difficult to win against England on such a pitch. Even more important is that the West Indies players' performance is very irregular. |

Mumbai Indians have qualified if they can win their next match against Punjab Kings. Their great win against Gujarat Titans gave them a lot of confidence, although most people bet on Gujarat in this match, they lost. Basically, Gujarat Titan had a lot of chances to win this match, but if Shubman Gill had not been out early, they could have won the game, but they lost by just 20 runs. However, Sai Sudarshan played well, if Shubman Gill had played well, they would have been sure of winning, but the failure was rather Mumbai Indians bowled well, due to which they qualified for the next round.
Gujarat's opposition victory proves that Mumbai players are in very good form. Especially Mumbai's batting order played very well in this match. Rohit Sharma, Baistwo, Tilak Verma, Suryakumar and Pandya are all very good buttsmen. Mumbai won this important match against Gujarat with a huge 221 runs. Punjab played very bad in their last match. The team collected only 5 runs. However, it is not said that Punjab will play bad against Mumbai. So Mumbai must perform well if they want to win. Punjab also has the ability to collect big. Mumbai vs. Punjab's match will be exciting. |

Tomorrow is the big final, and we all hope for a great match. I’m curious to know what you think the exact score will be and who might score the goals?I’m also interested in how many goals you expect in the game? and who you give the edge to ahead of this big match?
We are unlikely to see many goals in this match. The main reason for this is that in the previous matches, the teams got two chances each. They played in home and away matches. So even if they performed badly in one match, they had a chance to perform well in the second leg match and win. But in the final, this chance is not there. So each team will perform very carefully. Both Inter Milan and PSG are very tactical teams. However, we have seen PSG playing aggressively in most of the matches. PSG players attack a lot. On the other hand, Inter Milan keeps their defense strong and still tries to score goals from counterattacks. We have seen such gameplay from Inter Milan in both matches against Barcelona. However, in the final, it seems that both of them will change their tactics. |

Indeed, Manchester United management should give full support to Ruben Amorim to build the team for next season because from what happened this season, Ruben Amorim cannot be blamed because he came in the middle of the season when the team was already very depressed in the hands of Ten Hag.
But now the problem is that Ruben Amorim also cannot be fully trusted because he is not an experienced coach so if Manchester United management again overhauls the squad on a large scale it will spend a lot of money and that is quite risky for the stability of the team, especially since Ruben Amorim cannot promise anything, this is a difficult situation for management, maybe what can be done is to see the progress with changes slowly.
In the last few seasons, Manchester United management has not been able to perform as well as expected despite changing coaches several times. This season, the team's performance was even weaker. Manchester United could not win the Europa League title. The team was also very close to the relegation zone in the Premier League. Amorim is quite talented. I have seen several positive changes in Manchester United's performance. But this is not enough. Manchester United management should now add new talented players to the squad and try to sell old players. they will have to build a completely new squad. This requires a lot of money. However, unless major changes are made to the squad, their performance is unlikely to improve. |

Leverkusen has some big problems to solve. Tah is gone, Wirtz, Frimpong, the coach Alonso of course, I don't know who else will leave, but this is serious change going on.
There are going to be some big changes in the Leverkusen squad. This season we did not get the expected good performance from Leverkusen. The team could not compete for the title. they were 13 points behind from Munich I will say the biggest loss for Leverkusen is Xabi Alonso leaving. The management has appointed Ten Hag as Xabi's replacement. However, since Ten Hag was unsuccessful with Manchester United, yes he is great, but they cannot rely on Ten Hag. Moreover, if they want to do well next season, it is important to strengthen the squad. But does the Leverkusen management have enough money to strengthen the squad? |

Inter are clearly aiming to win the Champions League, it is clear that they will do everything to win the Champions League, this will bring a cup that has been coveted in Italy for many years and as you say the fans will be happy to have won such an important tournament forgetting everything
Inter Milan performed poorly in Serie A and Coppa Italia matches with the sole aim of winning the Champions League. They wanted to focus entirely on the Champions League title, a trophy that has eluded them since 2010. Because of this, the team lost to AC Milan in the Coppa Italia and failed to win the Serie A title. Inter Milan was only 1 point behind Napoli, how tragic! Inter Milan is desperate to win the Champions League title. However, there is no chance to underestimate their opponent, PSG are equally hungry for their first Champions League triumph. Under Luis Enrique, PSG has already proved its strength by grabbing multiple domestic titles. Barcola, Doué, & Achraf Hakimi made a strong unbreakable attacking lineup. Simone brings experience & a rich European pedigre, while Enrique's gang are hungry to make history with their first Champions League win. |

Maybe next season there will be a new surprise from Man United and Tottenham who performed badly this season, the presence of several strong teams will make it difficult for small teams or newly promoted teams to survive in the EPL. Leicester City, Ipswich town and Southampton have felt how difficult it is to compete in this competition.
It was difficult for Man United and Tottenham to survive in the EPL this season. Man United ended up in 15th place , while Tottenham avoided relegation very narrowly by finishing 17, their lowest top finish in 48 years. However , both teams did well in the Europa League. very unexpected ! Tottenham won their first major trophy in 17 years by defeating Man United , & cemented a spot in next season UCL Man United may focus on developing young talent, cause missing out on European competition means more financial constraint. Whatever , the competition at the top of the EPL is wild, so without significant improvement, staying even in the top 7 of the table will be difficult for both teams. |

It's not about NBA but didn't Diego Maradona said something similar? - Ban bookmakers and you'll see a real football.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I remember a similar statement from someone but I don't know who and how they said it in English, it's my interpretation.
Basketball is the most famous sport after soccer, NBA is one of the richest league in the world, richer than soccer leagues. I'd say that the NBA is not rigged but sometimes referees are rigged. NBA is too big to rig, no profit worth the potential loss that it will generate if they rig the game or anyone inside the NBA leaks the information. I often bet on soccer matches and I know that there are cases when referee will be on one team's side, so I either bet on that team or I avoid the match.
Yes Diego Maradona has been known to have been against the involvement of money-influence in sports. Yes, he was known for his outspoken views, that the bookmakers should not have an influence on game. However a direct quote from him saying, "Ban bookmakers and you'll see real football" doesn't valid i think. I can catch his view, he always want to see the sport free from external manipulations, just it. Now come to NBA, even though there have been claims and suspicions about the influence of various factors, including series expansion, there is still little clear evidence. Although NBA has handle actively all of the officiating concerns but fans and media always bring those controversial issues to increase viewership. So we should avoid those rumor, and enjoy the game. |

Looks like Napoli is really close to singing 2 players.
kevin de Bruyne and jonathan David can sing for Napoli really close.
Looks like their president is trying everything to keep Conte, who manifest the interest in going away.
The deal is still not confirmed, his contract will expire next month, still 1 month in his hands for exploring new opportunities & making the final decision. On the other hand, Conte was promoted to UCL after winning the Serie A cup, now he needs to rebuild his squad and search for some fresh blood for the upcoming UCL challenge. De Bruyne could be a good asset for Conte, since he has potential experience and playmaking skills.  source- The Time On the other hand, Bruyne already expressed huge interest for Napoli cause, his compatriot Romelu Lukaku inspired him a lot. he is ready to discuss about his 2-year contract with Napoli. If you talk about Jonathan David, his move is still uncertain. This canadian striker is set to leave Lille as a free agent, he has already connected with Napoli, Juventus, Inter Milan, Liverpool, and Barcelona. I've heard a rumor that Napoli is offering him a 5 year contract, but I haven't heard any progress to finalize that offer. While Bruyne's move to Napoli seems to be very progressing, David's future destination is still undecided |

In addition, it is true, Real Madrid is sometimes always able to provide surprises this season. But I am sure that a team that can always provide surprises will lose to a team that is always consistent in every match. Because surprises do not come in every match, it is different if a team is consistent in its performance. So even though it is true that this season Real Madrid sometimes always gives unexpected surprises, but I believe that most likely Real Madrid will lose to Barcelona this season. Because Barcelona has a fairly good performance consistency at this time.
Real Madrid is still capable of winning the La Liga title. Madrid is experienced and strong. I still think that Real Madrid is the strongest team in La Liga. However, Barcelona players are in great form at the moment. We can see Barcelona performing well consistently on every platform. And that is why Barcelona has the biggest chance of winning the La Liga title. If Barcelona does not face any major problems, then this team will dominate La Liga. However, if any important player in the squad is injured, Barcelona's performance is likely to be erratic. Barcelona has a busy schedule. So Hansi Flick will have to be careful in making his match strategy. |

Almost all of us agree that Liverpool are already in the safe zone to secure the title, 12 points means 4 games lead while the Premier League has 9 matches left so Liverpool only need to win 5-6 more games to be able to start the celebrations. Regarding Aston Villa yeah they can't compete in the Premier League I mean for top 4 but the good thing is that Aston Villa are still in the Champions League and of course they will prioritize the UCL matches. What caught my attention was Chelsea who have continued to play well over the last few seasons, from 12th position then 6th and this season 4th who knows next season Chelsea will compete at the top of the standings because I think Liverpool are almost at the end of their golden era so there will be another team to replace it and for now Chelsea deserve it.
Liverpool can easily win the Premier League title. Liverpool is ahead by a large margin. Also, Arsenal, who are in second place in the table, have not been performing consistently. Moreover, Liverpool are now competing only for the Premier League title. So the team will not lose the Premier League title. Chelsea are now in fourth place in the table. However, the team's performance is still quite erratic. Chelsea is trying to qualify for the Champions League. However, it is not certain whether Chelsea will be able to retain the fourth place in the table. Also, Chelsea will try to strengthen their squad next season. If Chelsea can raise big funds and add talented players to the squad, then maybe we will see better gameplay from Chelsea next season. |

However, spending often does not equal yield, you see Manchester City is the team that has spent much more money than everyone else but that just can't make the step forward, in fact if you look at the Premier League ranking it has gone backwards.
I think that at the moment the one with the best performance is Real Madrid
It is not possible to perform well in the Champions League by spending money alone. And we have seen the proof of this a few years ago. PSG spent a lot of money to build the squad. But even then the team could not do well in the Champions League. Experience is very important to do well in the Champions League. This season, PSG management did not spend much money on building the squad, but their performance is quite good. You are right. Real Madrid is always very strong on the Champions League platform. However, Barcelona is also performing well on the Champions League platform this season. Also, Inter Milan and Munich are still in the competition. |

Mainz are not bad in defense. But they had better keep their scoring as high as possible. Their performance so far deserves a spot for it in my opinion.  Mainz's attack is quite weak. Even then, this team is able to perform well consistently. This is definitely commendable. Although the attack is weak, since Mainz's defense is quite strong, we can see Mainz gaining points in most of the matches. Mainz has won four of the last 5 matches and drawn one. Mainz is in very good form. Mainz is going to face Dortmund in the next match. Although Dortmund is one of the renowned teams in the Bundesliga, Dortmund's performance has been weak this season. The team is not even able to make it to the top 10 of the points table. Dortmund has even lost in the last two matches. Dortmund is most likely to lose points against Mainz. The match will be a draw, the new Mainz will win. |

Barcelona knew what will happen if they allow Atletico Madrid get all 3pt and it would have been game over because the 3 teams won't want to lose and drop point while hoping for others to make that mistake. I don't think the champions league game they lost to Madrid was the cause of what killed Atletico Madrid's morale, they were over confidence after leading by 2 goals against Barcelona and that's bad if you're playing against Barcelona who are also fighting to get that top spot and secure the 3pt, you go all out to give your best and also defend more too, they should have continue to press and defending just like they did to Bayer Leverkusen but they failed. Barcelona will continue their good form till the last day, for now the whole thing is in the hands of the top 3 teams.
If Atletico Madrid had won against Barcelona, Real Madrid would have been at the top of the table and Atletico Madrid would have been 1 point behind in the second place. But Barcelona performed brilliantly and secured 3 points. Despite playing one match less than Real Madrid, Barcelona is on the same points table as Madrid. Atletico Madrid is now far behind in the title race due to losing the last two matches. If Barcelona wins their next match, Atletico Madrid will be ahead of them by 7 points. This is a very big gap at the moment. So I would say that Atletico Madrid has already been eliminated from the title race. Now the fight will be between Barcelona and Real Madrid. |

Luis Enrique is doing a great job especially because they got rid of all the star players and he's building a young team. Of course they spent a lot of money for those players but I appreciate this PSG way more than the old one.
Has he spent more money than Pep Guardiola? Well, what do I know? Lol that will be a story for another day. It's glad to see them improve after losing Lionel Messi, Kylain Mbappe and Neymar Jr. I'm proud of Luis Enrique and his squad, I won't be boggled seeing him winning the Champions league competition. He has the experience as he already won with Barcelona. They'll be up with a familiar face ( Unai Emery ) who has one time managed the club. They weren't doing so well, but stepped up and won the best side from group stage should send a strong message across down the spines of other clubs. PSG management has spent a lot of money in the past years. Even then, this team does not get the expected success. But has Luis Enrique spent too much money? Luis Enrique would have spent a very large amount of money to add any player to the squad. PSG is still a mediocre squad. Even then, the team is able to perform excellently with the help of Luis Enrique. It was unexpected that PSG will play so well in the Champions League this season and defeat Liverpool. Luis Enrique has made the impossible possible. Aston Villa is not a difficult opponent for PSG in the quarter-finals now. An easy victory is waiting for PSG in this match |

Well I don't think they will be in that situation at least not this season. The point gap difference between Tottenham and 18th places Ipswich is 17 points, that's a whole lots of points to lose from the remaining 9 games in the league this season. Besides Tottenham has 34 and will be needing 6 points extra to reach the compulsory 40 points benchmark to avoid relegation. So I strongly still think that Tottenham will not find themselves in such a position at least not this season.
Tottenham have no chance of falling into the relegation zone. And that is why Tottenham can now focus their full attention on winning the Europa League title. Tottenham also have no chance of coming in the top 6/7 of the Premier League table. So Tottenham coach may now focus his full attention on the Europa League matches. Ipswich, Southampton and Leicester City will be in the relegation zone of the Premier League. Wolves, who are in 17th place in the table, also have a very low chance of falling into the relegation zone. Because the performance of the three teams at the bottom of the table is very poor. These teams are facing defeats continuously. The possibility that they will surprise everyone and win in the upcoming matches is very low. |

If Leverkusen manages to win at Stuttgart, then the two are only 6 points apart.
If,  And with Stuttgart just having another go at the goal as I type this and Bayer not managing to get their aim right, it might turn out that the point difference will grow rather than shrink. Well, technically Bayern will have a lot on their plate for the end of the season, facing Mainz, Leipzig and both Borussias bot so does Bayer as their schedule is almost to the point the same with two matches back, so, no, not seeing Bayer coming back and sweeping the title on the last leg. And certainly not with the way they play at the moment. Stuttgart was leading 1-0 at the end of the first half. And Stuttgart managed to score another goal at the beginning of the second half. Nick Woltemade scored in the third minute of the second half. Stuttgart was able to take a 2-0 lead. And at the moment I don't see any chance of Leverkusen winning. We have seen poor performance from Leverkusen in the last few matches. In the last match, Leverkusen lost 2-0 against Bremen. And that's why I didn't bet on Leverkusen winning today. If I had bet on Leverkusen winning, I would have lost money today too. Leverkusen's performance today is also quite poor |

Namibia's target was not big. Canada could have won the match without any pressure. Especially with the way they started, they had a good chance of winning but it was unfortunate that the opening batsmen made a big score but the rest could not stay on the wicket. batsman of the Namibian team could have stayed on the wicket, it would not have been difficult to win this match. Due to the over reduction, the required score was only 167 in 43 overs. They batted according to that score but all their wickets fell in 42 overs. The team had to lose the match by just 12 runs. The biggest regret in the match will be for Shreyas Movva who tried well from one side. He was unbeaten till the end. I think the team needs more experience.
After the match was delayed due to rain, the target for Canada was 167 runs in 43 overs. I don't see any reason to call it a big target. I at least thought that Canada was going to get an easy win against this target. But even after batting against such a small target, Canada lost by 12 runs. I would say it is a shame for a team like Canada. Canada has been playing cricket for a long time, but this team has not improved. Canada's players need to work harder. Gerhard Erasmus's excellent bowling helped Namibia win. Gerhard Erasmus took 4 wickets for just 24 runs in 9 overs. |
