Watch: Jamie Carragher apologises to Mohamed Salah for his ‘disgrace’ comment during Liverpool’s Champions League clash against Inter Milan | Football News

Former Liverpool captain Jamie Carragher has issued an apology to forward Mohamed Salah for his comments over the latter’s rant, following the club’s 3-3 draw against Leeds United. Carragher said that he loved Salah as a player, but urged him to improve his behaviour. Carragher had called Salah’s comments after the Premier League match ‘a disgrace.’ He added that it wasn’t an emotional outburst from the 33-year-old and stated that when he made a rare appearance in the mixed zone, he and his agent staged an event to cause maximum damage. “Would you like to apologise to Mo, and just say sorry for any disrespect? It just come from passion, you’re a fan, go on, just say it down the lens,” Carragher’s colleague Micah Richards asked him during the CBS Sports’ Champions League show. “Mo, I apologise, I’ve upset you. I love you as the Liverpool player, but you just need to behave yourself off the pitch, “ Carragher said in response.

AC Milan and Inter complete acquisition of San Siro for new stadium project | Football News

AC Milan and Inter Milan have teamed up to complete the acquisition of the San Siro stadium and surrounding land from the city authorities, in a further step towards demolishing the venue and building a new one, the two clubs said on Wednesday. AC Milan and Inter, owned by US investment funds RedBird and Oaktree respectively, have hired architectural firms Foster + Partners and Manica to work on a new stadium with a capacity of 71,500, part of a broader redevelopment of the area with commercial and residential buildings. The old ground, which the clubs share, will be demolished except for a heritage section comprising part of its second tiers. Story continues below this ad Prosecutors in Milan have opened an investigation into alleged bid-rigging in the deal, judicial sources said on Wednesday, following a complaint from another group who said they wanted to make an offer but did not have sufficient time. The complaint is not expected to block the deal. Italy is under pressure to upgrade its soccer stadiums, driven by foreign investors …

Soccer-Inter held 2-2 by Lazio as Pedro penalty deals blow to title hopes | Football News

MILAN -Inter Milan’s title hopes were dealt a crushing blow when a late Pedro penalty earned Lazio a 2-2 draw at the San Siro on Sunday, to leave the Serie A champions one point behind Napoli going into the final game of the season. HT Image With leaders Napoli held to a 0-0 draw by Parma, Inter missed the perfect opportunity to move into pole position at just the right time, but Yann Bisseck went from hero to villain, conceding the 90th-minute penalty after opening the scoring. Inter are on 78 points and are away to Como on the final day with Napoli on 79, and they will host Cagliari. Should the sides finish level on points, the title will be decided by a playoff. Lazio are sixth on 65 points, two behind Juventus in fourth. The first half was mostly played at a pace which made the game look like an end of season match with nothing riding on it rather than two sides with still very much to play for. Federico Dimarco’s first-time …

Soccer-Conte calls for calm as Napoli’s title dreams go to the wire | Football News

May 12, 2025 03:24 AM IST SOCCER-ITALY-NAP-GEN/REPORT (PIX):Soccer-Conte calls for calm as Napoli’s title dreams go to the wire May 11 – Napoli manager Antonio Conte urged perspective after Sunday’s draw with Genoa, emphasising that his side were still in the hunt for the Serie A title, which would have been an ‘unthinkable’ target at the start of the season. HT Image Napoli’s advantage over second-placed Inter was cut to a single point after they were held to a 2-2 draw at home by Genoa on Sunday, leaving the title race wide open following Inter’s win against Torino. With two games to go and the title within touching distance, Conte still believes his side has overachieved this season. “The last rounds represent a target that at the start was absolutely unthinkable. To achieve that would be incredible. These fans deserve it, as the people of Naples always followed us with passion and enthusiasm,” Conte told DAZN. “We are still going beyond our capabilities, so can only thank these players for everything. The bitterness today is …

Barca manager Flick after UCL semis loss

Barca manager Flick after UCL semis loss

An upset Barcelona manager, Hansi Flick, criticised refereeing decisions in his side’s 4-3 loss against Inter Milan in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) that stopped the Catalans reaching their first Champions League final in a decade after an extra-time goal by home substitute Davide Frattesi. “I don’t want to talk too much about the referee, but every decision that was 50-50 went (Inter’s) way,” said Flick after the match. The German criticised Polish referee Szymon Marciniak, who had a busy night in the semi-final, second leg at San Siro, with Inter advancing 7-6 on aggregate to face the winner of Paris Saint-Germain vs Arsenal. Marciniak awarded Inter a penalty after a VAR review for a challenge by Pau Cubarsi on Lautaro Martinez that he did not deem an infringement and later reversed a decision he had signalled as a spot kick for Barcelona, with VAR saying Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s foul on Lamine Yamal was just outside the box.

Davide Frattesi Shoots Inter Milan Into Champions League Final After Barcelona Epic

Davide Frattesi Shoots Inter Milan Into Champions League Final After Barcelona Epic

Davide Frattesi fired Inter Milan into the Champions League final on Tuesday with an extra-time winner which gave the Italians a stunning 4-3 triumph over Barcelona, 7-6 on aggregate. Italy midfielder Frattesi won a tie for the ages under a downpour in Milan when he lashed home in the 99th minute after great play from Marcus Thuram, sending a packed and rocking San Siro wild with joy. Simone Inzaghi’s team will face either Arsenal or Paris Saint-Germain at the end of this month in Munich, where they will feel they have a great chance to be crowned kings of Europe for a fourth time after coming out on top in an epic contest. Frattesi has become something of a super-sub for Inter and he struck late just as he did in the first leg of his team’s quarter-final win over Bayern Munich. “It’s just incredible, I don’t know what to say. I thought after the Bayern game I couldn’t ever feel the same emotions, but tonight was even more incredible,” said Frattesi to …

Barcelona Fight Back Against Inter Milan In Sensational Champions League Semi-Final Draw

Barcelona Fight Back Against Inter Milan In Sensational Champions League Semi-Final Draw

Barcelona and Inter Milan shared a compelling 3-3 draw in a high-octane Champions League semi-final first leg clash on Wednesday. The Italian side raced into a two-goal lead with superb strikes from Marcus Thuram and Denzel Dumfries, before the unstoppable Lamine Yamal pulled Barca back into it with a sublime solo effort. Ferran Torres levelled for the five-time champions and although Inter nosed ahead through Dumfries again, a Yann Sommer own goal left the tie on a knife-edge at the halfway stage. Inter were desperately hoping Thuram would be fit to play after a thigh injury and he showed precisely why, scoring the fastest ever Champions League semi-final goal after 30 seconds. Barcelona’s Copa del Rey final winning goalscorer Jules Kounde hacked a poor clearance to the edge of the box, and Inter capitalised. Dutch wide man Dumfries aimed a low cross towards Thuram and Inigo Martinez slipped at just the wrong time, allowing the France striker room to finish with an impudent back-heel flick. Quadruple-chasing Barcelona seized control and pushed forward, roared …

Inter Milan Slump Puts Season At Risk Ahead Of Daunting Barca Trip

Inter Milan Slump Puts Season At Risk Ahead Of Daunting Barca Trip

Inter Milan head into the Champions League semi-finals at risk of finishing the season empty-handed after a late-season slump killed their treble hopes and has left them wondering where the next win will come from. Wednesday’s daunting clash at Barcelona could hardly have come at a worst time for Inter who, since reaching the last four, have lost three games on the bounce without scoring a goal. Those three defeats handed Napoli a three-point lead at the top of Serie A with four matches remaining and left Inter out of the Italian Cup after a dismal 3-0 derby defeat at the hands of AC Milan last week. Simone Inzaghi’s team look tired and bereft of ideas up front. Sunday’s 1-0 home loss to Roma was played in front of a soporific San Siro crowd which couldn’t have been more different to the raucous atmosphere which accompanied their thrilling passage past Bayern Munich a fortnight ago. “We deserved more and created situations from which we failed to get anything, largely because we lacked sharpness,” …

Inter Milan Downed By Roma, Scott McTominay Fires Napoli To Top Of Serie A

Inter Milan Downed By Roma, Scott McTominay Fires Napoli To Top Of Serie A

Inter Milan’s defence of their Serie A title was hit with a setback on Sunday as they lost 1-0 at home to Roma, while Scott McTominay netted a brace as Napoli beat Torino 2-0 to go top of the table. No fixtures were played on Friday or Saturday because of the funeral of Pope Francis in Rome, meaning the full round of Serie A matches take place on Sunday and Monday. Matias Soule’s first-half strike for Roma knocked Inter off top spot earlier in the day before new table-toppers Napoli opened up a three-point buffer with victory in Sunday’s late kick-off. “Three defeats in one week hurts, and we’re not used to such a run,” said Inter coach Simone Inzaghi. “It was a very important game, but we lacked a clear head. We need to try and get our energy back, and we’ll go to Barcelona with a lot of respect for this team, but without fear.” Argentinian Soule stunned the San Siro when he slotted home coolly as the ball ping-ponged around …

Luka Jovic Shoots AC Milan Into Italian Cup Final With Derby Double

Luka Jovic Shoots AC Milan Into Italian Cup Final With Derby Double

Luka Jovic fired AC Milan into the final of the Italian Cup with a brace in Wednesday’s convincing 3-0 derby win over Inter Milan which sent his team through 4-1 on aggregate. Serbia forward Jovic doubled his goal tally for the season, with Tijjani Reijnders sealing the tie late on, as Milan fans were given something to shout about in what has been an awful season for the seven-time European champions. Milan are unbeaten in all five of this season’s local derbies, winning the Super Cup final against Inter in January, and Wednesday’s win also ended Inter’s hopes of repeating the Serie A, Champions League and cup treble won under Jose Mourinho in 2010. “Jovic is working really hard, in particular in the last three or four weeks. He’s lost a bit of weight too, which helps,” said coach Sergio Conceicao to Mediaset. “He gives us something that we needed for this match, every forward has their own set of qualities. He doesn’t give defenders a lot to work with.” Conceicao’s side, who …
