CNN —Ukraine’s soccer team qualified for this summer’s European Championships with a come-from-behind win over Iceland, a rare moment of joy for the country more than two years into Russia’s invasion. Coach Sergiy Rebrov’s players made a ring around the center circle to lead the fans in a ‘Viking thunder clap’, the celebration made famous by their defeated opponents Iceland at Euro 2016. Ukraine finished third in their qualifying group, behind England and Italy, but beat Bosnia-Herzegovina in an earlier play-off to set up the decisive clash with Iceland. Russia will not be taking part, having been banned by European governing body UEFA because of the invasion. Ukraine will play in Group E of Euro 2024, along with Belgium, Slovakia and Romania, and face the prospect of taking to the continental stage while war rages back home.

With one team scoring after just 18 seconds and another after 21 seconds, the Premier League made an explosive return Tuesday following the competition's short winter break. Arsenal left it much later for its goals in a win that kept the pressure on Liverpool at the top. Arsenal might be able to maintain a title push heading into the final months of the campaign, but can Aston Villa?

Nov 11 (Reuters) - Arsenal beat struggling Burnley 3-1 to move level on points with leaders Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table on Saturday after Tottenham Hotspur slipped to a last-gasp loss at Wolverhampton Wanderers. Leandro Trossard, William Saliba and Oleksandr Zinchenko scored in Arsenal's victory which lifted them above Spurs to second in the table, level on 29 points with Manchester City, who have a game in hand.

A goal in the 59th minute from defender Victor Lindelof earned United a 1-0 win over Luton and secure a second successive league victory. Idrissa Gueye scored four minutes from time to earn Everton a breathless win at Selhurst Park.

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Erik ten Hag can breathe a sigh of relief after Manchester United ended another difficult week on a winning note. Victor Lindelof's goal secured a 1-0 win against Luton in the Premier League on Saturday that should hold back further speculation about Ten Hag's future for now. It wasn't the most convincing performance from a United team that had lost 4-3 against Copenhagen in the Champions League in midweek. It was vital Ten Hag secured a win ahead of the upcoming international break, with questions raised about his position in recent weeks.

CNN —Arsenal was cruising three weeks ago, one hand on its first Premier League trophy for 19 years, albeit with one eye on an impressive Manchester City, then eight points behind in the title race with a game in hand. It seemed like it might be a blip, simultaneously a dropped two points and salvaged one point, that injected drama into a title race still balanced on a knife-edge between Arsenal and City. Arsenal's three consecutive draws has changed the complexion of the title race. “Whether the point makes that much difference to Arsenal, I’m not quite sure,” former Liverpool player and now pundit Jamie Carragher said on Sky Sports. “They’ve probably got to go to Man City and get three points if they want to go on and win the league.
Saliba struggling to return to Arsenal title fight

LONDON, April 20 (Reuters) - Defender William Saliba is struggling to return to Arsenal's Premier League title run-in because of a back injury while Oleksandr Zinchenko is also a doubt for Friday's crucial home game against bottom club Southampton. Frenchman Saliba, who has impressed this season after returning from a loan spell with Marseille, has not played for a month and manager Mikel Arteta is concerned. Regarding William, we still have to wait a little bit more," Arteta told reporters on Thursday. Zinchenko has a groin injury and Arteta says the former Manchester City player "needs some more time to heal". "The rewards maybe haven't been there in terms of results in some games but they are a really good team."
The men’s team sits atop the English Premier League, with a manager full of ideas and a fearless new generation breaking through into the first team. Arteta’s Arsenal now leads Manchester City in the Premier League – a team that is touted for greatness – and shows very little signs of slowing down. He took his shirt off, swore at the Arsenal fans and stormed down the tunnel in what looked to be his last act as a player for the club. The realistic expectation, then, is not necessarily to win the Premier League title but to cement itself back in the Champions League. The Premier League will pause for over a month as many of Arsenal’s players will travel to the Gulf nation to join their respective teams.

După ce a schimbat mai multe posturi, Zinchenko a ajuns să evolueze foarte bine ca mijlocaș ofensiv, cu un potențial enorm. A fost apoi căpitan al naționalei U19 a Ucrainei, iar la Șahtior a evoluat alături de Douglas Costa, Henrikh Mkhitaryan și Fernandinho. În 2014, când a izbucnit războiul în regiunea Donbas, mama lui Oleksandr Zinchenko a decis că e mai bine ca familia să fugă în Rusia. A impresionat imediat și a primit și prima convocare la naționala mare a Ucrainei, chiar cu câteva zile înainte de a împlini 19 ani, în octombrie 2015, într-o înfrângere cu Spania, 0-1.
