Villa Paksa Tottenham Telan Kekalahan Di Laga Kandang Pamungkas Villa paksa Tottenham Telan Kekalahan di Laga Kandang Pamungkas Realitarakyat.com – Aston Villa memaksa Tottenham Hotspur menelan kekalahan 1-2 dalam laga kandang pemungkas mereka musim ini yang dimainkan sebagai pertandingan pekan ke-37 Liga Inggris di Stadion Tottenham Hotspur, London, Rabu waktu setempat (Kamis WIB). Kendati sempat tertinggal akibat gol cepat Steven Bergwijn, Villa mampu membalikkan keadaan setelah memaksa Sergio Reguilon mencetak gol bunuh diri yang disusul gol penentu kemenangan Ollie Watkins. Hasil itu jadi kemenangan pertama Villa atas Spurs dalam tujuh pertandingan di semua kompetisi, sejak November 2015. Kemenangan tak mengubah posisi Villa yang tetap menduduki posisi ke-11 klasemen dengan 52 poin, tapi mereka mampu mengganggu peluang Tottenham ke Liga Europa musim depan. Pasalnya Tottenham yang ada di urutan keenam dengan 59 poin, terancam disalip oleh West Ham United (59) yang baru main di laga lebih larut, demikian catatan laman resmi Liga Inggris. Delapan menit pertandingan berjalan, Bergwijn memantik sorak sorai publik tuan rumah lewat aksi individualnya mencuri penguasaan bola dari Marvelous Nakamba sebelum menerobos ke dalam kotak penalti dan melepaskan tembakan keras yang membawa Tottenham memimpin atas Villa. Keunggulan Totteham tidak bertahan lama sebab Villa mampu menyamakan kedudukan pada menit ke-20 saat umpan silang Nakamba disambut dengan sapuan buruk Reguilon yang membuat bola bersarang ke dalam gawangnya sendiri. Gol itu memantik pergerakan lebih agresif para pemain Villa, sayang tembakan Jack Grealish dari tepi kotak penalti mudah diamankan kiper Hugo Lloris dan percobaan jarak jauh John McGinn melambung tinggi di atas sasaran. Kerja keras tim tamu akhirnya membuahkan hasil, ketika Watkins dengan perkasa mengalahkan Eric Dier dalam bola udara sebelum melepaskan sepakan keras yang membawa Villa berbalik memimpin pada menit ke-39. Gol tersebut membuat Watkins jadi pemain kedua di Liga Premier musim ini yang bisa mencetak gol tandang melawan Tottenham dan Arsenal setelah penyerang Leicester City Jamie Vardy. Tottenham memasuki babak kedua dengan agresivitas tinggi, tetapi kiper Emiliano Martinez dua kali menggagalkan peluang bagus yang dimiliki Bergwijn. Di ujung lapangan berbeda, Lloris juga unjuk kebolehan menutup ruang tembak Watkins yang lolos dari jebakan offside dan menciptakan situasi satu lawan satu dengan kiper asal Prancis itu. Momentum Villa berlanjut dan anak-anak asuh Dean Smith seharusnya mampu menambah keunggulan pada injury time, sayang sepakan Anwar El Ghazi melenceng dan tembakan Watkins dimentahkan Lloris. Pada menit ke-77, Kane yang selalu mencetak gol ke gawang Villa dalam empat pertemuan terakhir nyaris melanjutkan tren positifnya jika saja Martinez tidak menghalau tembakan keras kapten tim nasional Inggris itu. Tujuh menit berselang, Watkins kembali menciptakan peluang untuk menambah keunggulan Villa, tetapi bola sepakannya dihadang oleh Eric Dier sebelum mencapai gawang. Tottenham tak berkutik menciptakan momentum kebangkitan dan nyaris kalah lebih telak jika saja tembakan talenta muda Villa Jaden Philogene-Bidate yang sudah memperdaya Lloris tak menghantam tiang gawang pada menit kelima injury time. Di pertandingan pemungkas yang berlangsung serempak pada Minggu (23/5), Tottenham akan melawat ke Stadion King Power menghadapi Leicester City, sedangkan Villa menjamu Chelsea di Villa Park.(Din) .

  • Le Zimbabwe Avec Des Joueurs Évoluant En Angleterre, En France Et En Afrique Du Sud
    Sport / Sports L’entraÎneur des Warriors fait appel à 23 éléments face à l’Algérie Le Zimbabwe avec des joueurs évoluant en Angleterre, en France et en Afrique du Sud © D.R. C’est finalement hier que le sélectionneur de la Zambie a dévoilé la liste des joueurs convoqués pour la double confrontation face à l’Algérie les 12 et 16 novembre, comptant pour les éliminatoires de la Coupe d’Afrique des nations. Le driver des Warriors, Logarusi Zdravko, a choisi de compter sur les joueurs évoluant à l’étranger, particulièrement en France et en Angleterre. En effet, tous les joueurs convoqués évoluent dans différents championnats d’Europe, voire des États-Unis, à l’exception du milieu de terrain King Nadolo (Dynamos). Quoi de plus normal puisque le sélectionneur du Zimbabwe veut mettre tous les atouts de son côté afin de décrocher l’un des billets qualificatifs à la phase finale de la compétition africaine. Ainsi, Logarusi comptera sur le talent du jeune joueur et attaquant de l’Olympique Lyonnais Tinotenda Kadewere (7 matches, un but et une passe décisive depuis l’entame du championnat français de Ligue 1). Le nouveau coéquipier de Benlamri à Lyon, qui compte seulement cinq apparitions sous le maillot de son pays et qui a suivi le match Algérie-Zimbabwe depuis le banc de touche lors de la CAN 2017, est un atout non négligeable pour l’adversaire des Verts. D’autant plus qu’il sera associé dans sa tâche au revenant David Moyo du club écossais de Hamilton Academy, ainsi que le nouveau visage de l’équipe Prince Dube qui évolue au club tanzanien du FC Azam.

    WELL all the players of Dutch football have finished the hard training of the pre-season and the kick-off to a new campaign is here! After the raging success of the Total Dutch Football Top 50 magazine we provided last month, we decided to follow up with a season preview publication. Although the team have previewed all 18 Eredivisie sides inside these pages, this will prove to much more. Inside you will find the management hierarchy for each club, as well as updated squad lists with full squad numbers and date of births. I have provided my thoughts and betting tips on the Eredivisie season ahead while Martijn Hilhorst has give his knowledge of the new Jupiler League campaign to give you a taste for that action. So to quote the front page of this exclusive, free magazine this is... 'Your Definitive Guide to the Dutch Football Season'. Enjoy, Will Burns All transfer and statistical information included in this publication is correct as of August 6th 2015. Will Burns introduces the latest arrivals to the Eredivisie... YOUNG striker Yaya Sanogo joins the Amsterdammers on a season-long loan from Premier League giants Arsenal with a great reputation. However, spending last year at Crystal Palace in another loan deal, the 22-year-old failed to make an impact. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has a good relationship with Dennis Bergkamp and Marc Overmars and has trusted de Godenzonen to improve the youngster in a move and thinks Sanogo could help Ajax on the way: 'I am sure it will be good for Ajax and he has an opportunity to play in the Champions League and that's vital for his experience.'.

  • 125 Jaar Vitesse. Een Traditieclub Dus, De Op Een Ger Lange
    PROLOOG “Arnhem is geen voetbalstad.” “Vitesse is haar ziel kwijt.” Ach, we zijn wel wat gewend als supporter van geel-zwart. Er zijn al- lerlei voor- en tegenargumenten in te brengen. Ik hou het liever bij de feiten: 125 jaar Vitesse. Een traditieclub dus, de op een na oudste in het Nederlandse profvoetballandschap, heel vroe- ger lange tijd de beste van het oosten. Op het laatste moment het betaald voetbal ingestapt en daar sinds jaar en dag vaak de nummer één van Gelderland. De eerste Nederlandse profclub in buitenlandse handen. Duizenden supporters, honderden spelers en andere betrokkenen door de geschiedenis heen, ruim 4.500 wedstrijden, van 1892 tot nu. In dit boek wordt op elke kalenderdag een wedstrijd uit die club- historie gekoppeld aan interessante wapenfeiten, memorabele spelers of andere opmerkelijke gebeurtenissen. De wedstrijden dienen vooral als kapstok om de geschiedenis van Vitesse te belichten. Geen boek vol wedstrijdverslagen dus, al ontbreken prachtige, verrassende of ontroerende overwinningen natuur- lijk niet. Bij elk bijzonder – maar soms ook nietszeggend – duel lees je meer over een seizoen, de levensloop van een opvallen- de Vitessenaar of een mijlpaal van de club, aangevuld met veel uniek beeldmateriaal: 366 verhalen, elke dag Vitesse.* VITESSE Toch zal je ook tevergeefs zoeken naar sommige historische voetbalfeiten. Zoals op 19 mei, de dag van die wel heel grote nederlaag in Amsterdam in 1972, omdat wij veertien jaar- la ter voorzichtig een aanstaande periodetitel vierden. En ooke d “officiële feestdag voor alle Vitessenaren” – vrij naar Maasbert Schouten – is niet gemarkeerd in dit calendarium op de bewuste 16e augustus, want die dag komt John van den Brom aan bod.
