“I’m proud of the boys. The fans were already fired up before kickoff,” he said. “Nights like this need energy, big moments, and a bit of magic — and we saw all of that tonight.”

The club filed misstated accounts and concealed the true state of its finances from its auditors and football regulators.
– Manchester City was significantly in breach of both the Premier League’s and UEFA’s spending limits.
– During the Premier League’s investigation, Manchester City committed multiple breaches of its duties of co-operation and utmost good faith towards the League (three of the four alleged breaches were upheld).”

“When I won it, I told him that he would be next. If he doesn’t win it for whatever reason, I will give it to him.”
Popular footballer Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on retirement and shares how he actually thought of retiring from international football after the 2026 World Cup.

He adds, “The young kids love me because they see me as an example, and that, for me, is the most important thing. I will continue to do that even when I retire after 10 years.”
