Lionel Messi And Argentina To Play Australia In China Friendly

Lionel Messi will lead world champions Argentina in a friendly against Australia in Beijing, the country said on Monday, followed by another game in Indonesia. The clash on June 15 at the Workers' Stadium in the Chinese capital is a rematch of Argentina and Australia's meeting in the last 16 of the Qatar World Cup. Messi scored in a 2-1 win for Argentina and they went on to win the World Cup. "On June 15, Lionel Messi will lead the Argentinian national team in a friendly against Australia in Beijing," the South American country's embassy in China said on the Twitter-like Weibo.

Kylian Mbappe Goals See PSG All But Secure Ligue 1 Title

Paris Saint-Germain all but secured the Ligue 1 title on Sunday as a Kylian Mbappe brace gave them a 2-1 win away to Auxerre that left the Qatar-owned club six points clear at the top of the table with two games remaining. PSG had hoped to officially confirm a second straight championship triumph, and a ninth in the last 11 seasons, but they needed closest rivals Lens to slip up earlier in the day. Lens won 3-1 at Lorient, and so PSG still require one point from their final two matches to secure a French record 11th title overall.

Named in the starting lineup as part of Manchester City's second string vs Chelsea, Aymeric Laporte took a ten-minute solo stroll around the Etihad pitch around 90 minutes before kick-off at the Etihad, taking videos, watching the big screen, and seemingly chatting to someone on his phone. It's not unusual for players to do things like that - Jack Grealish and Riyad Mahrez always inspect away grounds in similar fashion - but it's not something City players often do at home, and Laporte appeared to be in tears at one point.

Erik ten Hag may not need new signings in one key area for Man United to challenge rivals

Wingers will always catch the eye. It's arguably the most exciting and threatening position in a football team; operating in those areas of unpredictability, where freedom exists and risks are taken along with responsibility. So much comes from the wide positions; the art of one-on-one battles over the course of 90 minutes - those players constantly looked for by others, in search of a spark.
