Despite signs of renewed intensity, Real Madrid fell to their second loss in four days against Manchester City. How long can a positive reaction overshadow negative results? No attacker in Real Madrid’s history had gone without a goal for as long as Rodrygo but at last he was released and he had a message to deliver, performed for public consumption. The Brazilian, who had not scored in nine months and was starting only his fifth game this season, beat Gianluigi Donnarumma to give them the lead against Manchester City. Then he turned and ran towards the touchline to embrace Xabi Alonso, the manager on the edge for whom this could prove an even greater release. “It’s a difficult moment for him, like it is for us,” Rodrygo said. “Things aren’t coming off and I wanted to show people that we are together with the coach. People say a lot of things and I just wanted to show that we are united. We need that unity to keep going.” By the time Rodrygo spoke, the lead had been taken from them, another loss taking its place. City had turned it around, going 2-1 ahead with “very little”, Alonso said. That can happen when you’re in a “delicate” state, he added, but at least Madrid had reacted. This time they could not complete a comeback. Endrick, on as a substitute having played 11 minutes all season, hit the bar in the dying moments. Continue reading...

The festive season is well and truly underway at Aston Villa and, to celebrate, we’re recounting some of the most famous and impressive goals scored in claret and blue. Throughout the month of December, Aston Villa's Advent Calendar will reveal a goal which has been notched in Villa history by a player wearing the shirt number corresponding to the day of the month – every day up to Christmas Eve. We'll be counting down to Christmas in style, championing some of the best-ever players to pull on our famous colours, and indeed some of the most iconic goals to have ever been scored for our famous club. Opening the 11th window of the Aston Villa Advent Calendar on December 11, is Villa's current No.11, Ollie Watkins... Unai Emery’s Villans were into the final month – and three matches – of the 2024/25 season. Having bounced back from successive defeats with a 1-0 win at home to Fulham, a long trip to the south coast to take on Bournemouth would be their penultimate away game of the campaign. Villa were chasing European football for a third consecutive season and, for Watkins, there was even more jeopardy, as he hunted his own place in the club’s record books. Having netted his 74th Premier League goal for the Villans less than a month prior, the England international was now tied with Gabby Agbonlahor, and just one goal away from becoming the club’s all-time leading Premier League goalscorer. And, on that sunny afternoon at the Vitality Stadium, his moment arrived. The half-time whistle was imminent when Matty Cash won the ball from Antoine Semenyo and Morgan Rogers located the run of Watkins on the centre. The 29-year-old got the faintest touch on his England teammate’s cross to glance into the far corner and spark scenes of jubilation in the away end he celebrated in front of. Watkins had his 75th Premier League goal in claret and blue. The record was his. And not just that, the only goal of the game tied up a crucial 1-0 win on the road which secured Villa’s place in Europe for the third season running. Since then, another three goals have taken his tally up to 78 and counting. Here’s to many more! Enjoy Ollie's record-breaking moment in all its glory below, and keep your eyes peeled throughout the month for the remainder of the Aston Villa Advent Calendar.
