CNN —The Champions League returned on Tuesday with a bang. Bayern beat Dinamo Zagreb of Croatia 9-2 at Allianz Arena, becoming the first team in Champions League history to score nine goals in a single match. “What were my chances of setting foot even in the Premier League, playing in the Premier League, winning something as a player, playing for the national team? Kylian Mbappé opened his Champions League account for Real, scoring just after half-time before Deniz Undav equalized for the German side. It was the first game in Champions League history to feature five US players, per Goal.com.

CNN —Union Berlin’s head coach Nenad Bjelica was sent off for twice pushing Bayern Munich forward Leroy Sané in the face during a feisty Bundesliga encounter on Wednesday. As players and coaching staff rushed in to separate the pair, Bjelica again put his hand in Sané’s face. On the pitch, Bayern Munich was keen to hit back after losing to Werder Bremen last time out. Despite all its first-half dominance, Bayern began to creak as the game wore on and Union Berlin had a number of chances to equalize. The referee waved away the protests from Union Berlin’s players and Bayern managed to hold on for an important win.

ODEMIRA, Portugal, Aug 8 (Reuters) - Hundreds of firefighters scrambled on Tuesday to put out a blaze raging in southern Portugal that has scorched thousands of hectares of land and forced the precautionary evacuation of around 1,400 people. High temperatures and strong winds are complicating efforts to combat the flames, which have destroyed around 6,700 hectares of land. A total of 19 tiny villages, four tourist accommodations and a camping site have been evacuated out of precaution. [1/5]People watch a wildfire in Aljesur, Portugal, August 7, 2023.

☆ Leaders Dortmund ready to open up gap with win over Bochum
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-27 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

With second-placed Bayern Munich, a point behind on 59, in action at home to Hertha Berlin on Sunday, victory over Bochum would pile more pressure on Dortmund's embattled title rivals. Their last league title dates back to 2012. Dortmund coach Edin Terzic could be without defender Nico Schlotterbeck against Bochum while Raphael Guerreiro trained alone earlier this week. They are in 15th place on 27 points, just two points above the relegation playoff spot. Hertha are without a win in their last seven games and are anchored in last place on 22 points points.

☆ Dortmund crush Frankfurt 4-0 to storm into the Bundesliga top spot
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-22 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +1 min

DORTMUND, Germany, April 22 (Reuters) - Borussia Dortmund cruised past Eintracht Frankfurt 4-0, with two goals coming from Donyell Malen, on Saturday to take over the lead in the Bundesliga from Bayern Munich with five matches left in the season. For Frankfurt, last year's Europa League winners, it was their eighth league game without a win and they dropped to ninth, out of contention for a European spot. Jude Bellingham opened Dortmund's account in the 19th minute after picking up the ball at the edge of the box, turning on the spot and firing in. Their second goal, five minutes later, was far easier, with keeper Gregor Kobel kicking the ball deep in to the Frankfurt half and Malen slotting in after the ball was headed on twice past a clueless Frankfurt backline. Mats Hummels made it 3-0 with a well-timed header from a Raphael Guerreiro cross before Karim Adeyemi's solo effort set up Dutch striker Malen for his second goal of the evening in the 66th.

☆ Portugal young gun Ramos faces tough test from wily Saiss
▼ + stars: | 2022-12-08 | by ( Shady Amir | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Ramos, 21, made headlines when the teams were announced, picked to lead the attack in place of Portugal's all-time leading scorer Cristiano Ronaldo who was relegated to the bench. It did not take long for the youngster to become one of the biggest stories of the Qatar World Cup. Ramos made his debut in Portugal's 4-0 win over Nigeria in a warm-up game before the World Cup and played a total of 10 minutes as a substitute in two of the three group matches. Perhaps Ramos, who helped Benfica reach the Champions League last 16 this season, benefited from being the third striker in the squad behind Ronaldo and Andre Silva. He will now be firmly in the spotlight when Morocco coach Walid Regragui considers his tactics.

☆ Analysis: 'Sorcerer' Ramos dazzles with hat-trick in first World Cup start
▼ + stars: | 2022-12-06 | by ( Karolos Grohmann | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +3 min

Ramos could not have hoped for a more magical night in Qatar, having made his international debut only three days before the World Cup started. Ramos had only featured for 10 minutes in total in Portugal's World Cup group matches but earned a surprise start when Santos opted to leave the country's all-time top scorer Ronaldo on the bench and take a risk with the youngster. Ramos is neither the muscular package that is Ronaldo nor does he play as far forward as the Portugal captain. While thousands of fans at Lusail stadium repeatedly chanted 'Ronaldo' 'Ronaldo', hoping to see the superstar in action, Ramos became the first player to score a hat-trick in his first World Cup start since Germany's Miroslav Klose 20 years ago. But by then a new Portugal hero, no longer the sorcerer's apprentice, had stolen the show with a memorable performance.

☆ Cristiano Ronaldo dropped to bench as Portugal thrashes Switzerland to reach World Cup quarterfinals
▼ + stars: | 2022-12-06 | by ( Ben Church | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

CNN —No Cristiano Ronaldo, no problem for Portugal as it produced a dynamic display to thrash Switzerland 6-1 and reach the quarterfinals at Qatar 2022. The superstar striker was dropped from the starting lineup on Tuesday by Fernando Santos but the bold decision paid off for the Portugal manager. Either way, the news of his absence from the starting lineup was the major talking point ahead of the crunch game. The decision to drop him from the starting lineup was truly vindicated with Portugal looking far more threatening in attack. With all his experience, though, Ronaldo can still have a role to play in Portugal’s World Cup campaign but it’s yet to be seen whether that’s from the bench or in the starting lineup.

☆ After the tears, South Korea turn eyes to Portugal

South Korea must beat the 2016 European champions - as they did at the 2002 World Cup on home soil - and hope that the result of the other final Group H match between Ghana and Uruguay goes their way too. Assistant coach Sergio Costa said South Korea would bounce back from their disappointment. South Korea have only one point after drawing their opening game against Uruguay and must beat Portugal to have any chance of progressing. At the World Cup 20 years ago, South Korea beat a 10-man Portugal - whose team included Bento - in their final group game. Portugal opened their campaign in Qatar with a 3-2 victory against Ghana before enjoying a more controlled 2-0 win over Uruguay on Monday.

În următoarea etapă a competiției, Belgia va înfrunta Italia, în data de 2 iulie, la Munchen, iar Cehia va juca în sferturi contra Danemarcei, în data de 3 iulie, la Baku. Meciul Belgia - Olanda, cap de afiş al optimilor, a fost unul destul de echilibrat, scrie Agerpres. Apoi Ronaldo (min 25) a executat bine o lovitură liberă de la 25 de metri, dar Courtois a respins. Repriza a doua a fost dominată de Portugalia, care a căutat cu insistenţă golul egalării, însă rareori a găsit culoare spre poarta lui Courtois. Ocazia cea mai mare a portughezilor a fost irosită de Guerreiro (83), al cărui şut de la 16 metri s-a dus în bară.

La finalul partidei, Cristiano Ronaldo nu s-a ferit să își arate dezamăgirea cauzată de rezultat, aruncând banderola de căpitan chiar pe gazon. Starul naționalei Portugaliei, campioana en-titre a Campionatului European, a devenit, însă, și ținta ironiilor. Cristiano Ronaldo a jucat doar patru meciuri la această ediție a Campionatului European, suficient, însă, pentru a marca cinci goluri și a doborî sau egala recorduri. De asemenea, Cristiano Ronaldo este singurul fotbalist din istorie care a jucat la cinci ediții ale Campionatului European.
