GLASGOW, Scotland : Ukraine coach Oleksandr Petrakov said Wednesday's World Cup qualification playoff win over Scotland had been a victory for his compatriots who "fight with every last drop of their blood".
Argentina lifted their second trophy in 11 months as they defeated Italy in the Finalissima on Wednesday evening.
Oleksandr Zinchenko says Ukraine need to beat Wales in their final World Cup play-off qualifier or else the win over Scotland “won’t mean anything”. Ukraine won the rescheduled play-off semi-final 3-1 at Hampden Park, and face Wales for a place in the World Cup on Sunday. Ad/> Zinchenko, who had broken down in tears in the pre-match press conference when discussing Russia’s invasion of his country, said his side “dream” of reaching Qatar and must finish the job this weekend.
Marin Cilic says he is “unbelievably proud” to be through to his first French Open semi-final and has credited Andrey Rublev for showing “great sportsmanship” during the match. The 33-year-old Croatian needed four hours and 10 minutes to overcome the Russian and will play either Holger Rune or Casper Ruud in the next round. Cilic has reached the quarter-final stage of Roland-Garros in 2017 and 2018 but has broken new ground by reaching the final four.
They came to see their king and he did not disappoint. Three weeks before his 35th birthday but still as influential as ever, Lionel Messi inspired Argentina to victory over Italy in a “Finalissima” that certainly lived up to all the hype. Billed as a showdown between the champions of Europe and South American and being played for the first time since 1993, there only ever looked like being one winner on Giorgio Chiellini’s final international appearance as Lionel Scaloni’s side stretched their unbeaten run to 32 matches. A former defender, Scaloni spent half a season on loan at West Ham in 2006 under the management of Alan Pardew and, with Messi pulling the strings from a deeper position, he has clearly assembled a side that should be considered genuine contenders for the World Cup later this year.
Ukraine’s emotional quest to qualify for the World Cup amid the ongoing troubles with Russia moved a step closer with a 3-1 win over Scotland in a pulsating playoff semi-final.
