Having lost the KNVB Cup final in 2014, 2017 and 2018, PSV Women must’ve thought their cursed existence in the competition was rearing its ugly head again in the 2021 final on Saturday.
In the 17th minute, PSV set about defending a Den Haag corner. The ball eventually fell to Den Haag’s Jannette van Belen, whose attempted shot was blocked and ricocheted back off the top of her shoulder.
ANKARA — A Turkish court on Friday sentenced a media executive and a former police chief to more than 1,000 years each in prison for conspiring to bring match-fixing charges against top soccer club Fenerbahçe.
Fenerbahçe's president was jailed for match-fixing a decade ago and the club was barred from playing in European competitions for two seasons, but the case was reopened after prosecutors said it was founded on a conspiracy.

With the 2021 Champions League Final between Manchester City and Chelsea on Saturday, this week has been full of conjecture over the future of the competition. While the Super League appears to have (mostly) died down, a few fairly major changes to Champions League rules could be on the cards, including away goals, substitutions and a “Final Four.”
Not long ago, Central Scotland was home to a generational footballing talent. Scouts from across Europe descended on the coastal city of Dundee to watch teenage sensation Ryan Gauld as he slalomed past Premiership defenders and picked apart backlines with his inch-perfect passes.
Standing 5-5 (he has since grown to 5-7) with an innate quickness and a deft left foot, Gauld quickly drew comparisons to Lionel Messi — gaining him nicknames such as: "Baby Messi," "Mini Messi" and "Aberdeen Messi" (the last one a tribute to the youngster's hometown).

Un implacable brote de Covid-19 afecta a River Plate de Argentina. Hace unos días, el equipo Millonario tuvo 15 bajas debido al virus para el Superclásico ante Boca Juniors, en un partido que terminó perdiendo a través de los lanzamientos penales. El vía crucis, sin embargo, no acaba ahí: hoy River tiene a 21 jugadores out y enfrentará a Independiente Santa Fe de Colombia con apenas 11 elementos, sin suplentes y con uno de los futbolistas de campo improvisado en la posición de arquero.
Tras un 1-1 en los 90 minutos, Boca Juniors se impuso a River Plate en una interesante tanda de penaltis en La Bombonera.
