Football: Pep Guardiola v Jurgen Klopp, who will be Premier League champion on Sunday?

It was supposed to be the defining rivalry in English football, the head to head between the world's greatest coaches. Actually Pep Guardiola saw off Jose Mourinho's challenge comfortably. Jurgen Klopp has presented himself as Guardiola's toughest opponent.No one has more wins against Guardiola's side than Klopp. The Catalan has said Liverpool are one of the two best teams he has faced. And it could take 98 points for his Manchester City to hold off Liverpool and win the league on Sunday (May 12). But how do they compare?

Football: Australian players' union demands World Cup prize-money parity

Football: Australian players' union demands World Cup prize-money parity

MELBOURNE (REUTERS) - Australia's soccer players' union has launched a campaign calling for prize-money parity at the women's and men's World Cups, and offered support for the country's footballers to take legal action against global governing body Fifa.
The winning team at the women's World Cup in France, which starts on Friday, will receive US$4 million (S$5.47 million) in prize money from the tournament's total pool of US$30 million. In contrast, France banked US$38 million for winning the men's tournament in Russia last year.
Professional Footballers Australia Chief Executive John Didulica and other PFA executives wrote to Fifa last week demanding an immediate doubling in prize money for the women's tournament, saying the players were "victims of discrimination".
"The PFA expressly reserves the rights of the players to have this matter resolved through appropriate means including mediation and arbitration," the letter, addressed to Fifa's Chief Officer for Women's Football Sarai Bareman, said.
The PFA has launched a website (www.ourgoalisnow.com) outlining the campaign's aims and instructing women's players how to participate.
Australia's Matildas, quarter-finalists at the last women's World Cup in Canada, have thrown their weight behind the campaign, with players posting its logo and video on their social media accounts.
Gender pay disparity in football was put in the spotlight in March when the US women's team sued the US federation, alleging gender discrimination three months before their World Cup title defence.
Although prize money at the women's World Cup in France is double the amount from Canada, the pay gap with the men's tournament actually increased to US$370 million from US$343 million. The men's prize money grew from US$358 million at the 2014 Brazil World Cup to US$400 million in Russia.
Fifa is hosting its first "Women's Football Convention" in Paris on June 6-7 where it said leaders from the world of sports and politics would discuss the development and empowerment of women in soccer.

Football: Maradona out of hospital after internal bleeding scare, agreed earlier to stay in Mexico for another season

Football: Maradona out of hospital after internal bleeding scare, agreed earlier to stay in Mexico for another season

BUENOS AIRES (REUTERS) - Argentinian football legend Diego Maradona was discharged from hospital, after being admitted earlier on Friday (Jan 4) with internal bleeding in the stomach which was discovered during routine examinations, his daughter Dalma said.
"For those who were really worried about my dad I can tell you that he is well," she wrote on Twitter after fears over her father's health spread. "He is going home soon."
The 58-year-old was having a routine medical check-up in his homeland before returning to Mexico, where he is coach of second division side Dorados de Sinaloa, when doctors discovered the problem.
However, a source close to the family told Reuters the problem was not serious and that the former Boca Juniors, Napoli and Barcelona midfielder, who famously led his country to the 1986 World Cup title, was not in any danger.
Another source said that Maradona, who left the hospital without talking to the media, may have to undergo more tests.
Friday's scare was the latest for Maradona, who has suffered frequent periods in hospital over the years, often owing to the extravagant lifestyle that helped make him one of the most admired and iconic footballers of the 20th century.
He last fell ill at the 2018 World Cup in Russia, where he was filmed passing out in an executive box at the Argentina-Nigeria group-stage game. Argentina won 2-1 to reach the last 16, where they were knocked out by eventual winners France.
Maradona was taken into hospital in 2004 with severe heart and respiratory problems linked to cocaine use. He later underwent drug rehabilitation in Cuba and Argentina before a stomach-stapling operation in 2005 helped him lose weight.
In 2007 he checked himself into a clinic in Buenos Aires to help him overcome alcohol abuse problems.
In recent months, he has walked with the aid of crutches because of problems with his knees.
The unexpected news of Maradona's admission to hospital on Friday came just hours after his lawyer confirmed that he would coach in Mexico for a second consecutive season.
He took over at struggling Dorados de Sinaloa in September and got them into the play-offs where they lost to Atletico San Luis.
"Diego Maradona has arranged to continue with Dorados de Sinaloa and will stay as coach of the team for the whole season," his agent Matias Morla wrote on Twitter.
The club said his assistant Jose Maria Martinez would lead the team until Maradona returned.

Klopp wants angry reds

Klopp wants angry reds

LONDON • Liverpool remain the only unbeaten team in the Premier League this season and 16 points ahead of tomorrow's visitors Manchester United but Jurgen Klopp knows better than most that form often goes out of the window against their fierce rivals.
Down the years, the biggest game in English football has always been a tempestuous affair, notably in 2015, when then captain Steven Gerrard was sent off for a stamp on Ander Herrera just 38 seconds after coming on at half-time.
While referee Martin Atkinson will again be taking charge of the game and is sure to clamp down on any transgressions, Klopp wants his players to show aggression without going over the top.
At his pre-match press conference yesterday, the German said: "We have to be angry on Sunday and we will be. We will fight for those points on Sunday."
The 51-year-old knows how heated rivalries can get, having been in charge of Borussia Dortmund for their "Der Klassiker" matches against Bayern Munich.
He added: "It's a big one! It is a very important game and it is very special.
"When I was back in Germany, I tried everything I could to watch it. Very often, it was very intense. Now I'm here, it's always tight.
"In Europe, we were good against them and I don't remember bad results too much."
His opposite number Jose Mourinho sought to gain a psychological edge ahead of his side's trip, noting that it was trophies in the cabinet that counted, not plaudits for playing style.
While Klopp has won widespread praise for his brand of "heavy metal football", he has yet to achieve silverware in his three years on Merseyside.
He has also yet to get the better of United under Mourinho, having not beaten them since the 55-year-old took charge in 2016, drawing three times and losing once.
The Portuguese made a sly dig at his pre-match press conference, saying: "Trophies matter, it matters, especially when you have the potential to fight for trophies and especially when you clearly say the objective is to win the trophy.
"Jurgen told already they want to win the Premier League (title), (that) is their objective."
He also suggested that structural issues at Old Trafford were to blame for his United team being a long way from playing in his image.
But, while Mourinho claimed that United were far from "living in an amazing house" and will travel without the injured trio of Marcos Rojo, Victor Lindelof and Alexis Sanchez, Liverpool have problems of their own, too.
While their issues, unlike the Red Devils' deep-seated ones, are relatively short term, they will have a direct impact on Klopp's selection as Liverpool will be without three defenders, two of whom are usual starters.
Joel Matip joined Joe Gomez, already ruled out for six weeks with a fractured leg, on the sidelines after breaking his collarbone against Napoli in their Champions League win on Tuesday.
Klopp bemoaned the injury that Trent Alexander-Arnold suffered in the dying moments of that same match, calling it "not top-class news".
"It's our situation. Crisis is only a crisis if you feel it," he said.
"Trent is not as serious as the other two boys. It was unlucky as well, like with Joel."
While James Milner can fill in at right-back with Alexander-Arnold set to miss at least two games, Klopp hinted that forgotten man Nathaniel Clyne could be in line to make his first league appearance since May.

Just like in their last two outings, Klopp's team needed late goals from Mohamed Salah and Jordan Henderson to move two points clear of City, who still have a game in hand.

Football: Liverpool's van Dijk in doubt for Leicester game

Football: Liverpool's van Dijk in doubt for Leicester game

LONDON (REUTERS) - Liverpool centre-back Virgil van Dijk is back in training but remains doubtful for the Premier League leaders' home match against Leicester City at Anfield on Wednesday (Jan 30).
Manager Juergen Klopp reserved judgement on the Dutch international's availability amid fears that the player, who went sick after a warm weather training break in Dubai, could miss out.
"Virgil was a little bit ill, but he trained yesterday and will train today, so we will see," Klopp told reporters on Tuesday.
Van Dijk, who joined from Southampton a year ago for a reported £75 million (S$130 million), is a key pillar in the tight defence that has helped Liverpool soar to the top of the table.
Liverpool have limited options in defence with right back Trent Alexander-Arnold needing more time to recover from a knee injury and James Milner suspended.
"We will play with a right back. Or maybe a wing-back... I have no clue what we are doing tomorrow to be honest," joked Klopp.
Closest rivals Manchester City can close the gap to one point when they play at Newcastle United on Tuesday, but Klopp said that was of no concern.
"If we win the game, we are not interested in other results," said the German.
"How can we change the approach? I've said a few times, I expect City to win every game and it makes sense that you think like this.
"I really believe in that you have to do your own work and your own job if you want to have something, don't be concentrated on other teams," he added.
"I expect to be one point up before the game tomorrow, and that doesn't bother me."
Liverpool, not in FA Cup contention, will have had an 11-day break since beating Crystal Palace 4-3 on Jan 19 but Leicester are similarly rested.
Klopp said a game in that period would have been difficult, given injury and sickness.
"It was good that we didn't have to play, even though the cup competitions are important. It would really not have been possible for a lot of players," he said.
"We had a few more days and could wait for one or two players - we have to see if they will be really available for the game tomorrow."
