The Tyson Fury v Klitschko title match is still months away, but it has already kicked off at the press conference.

Though Wladimir Klitschko is 1.22 (2/9) favorite against the British-Irish boxer at Bet365, Fury wants to break Klitschko’s face in their respective fight that is scheduled to 24 October. The two will clash in Dusseldorf for the heavyweight titles possessed by the Ukrainian. Klitschko has a 64-3 record with 53 knockout victories and with his last loss coming more than 10 years ago.

Tyson Fury, who is 4.50 (7/2) underdog at Bet365, has an immaculate record. He turned pro in 2008 and since then he recorded 24 victories, 18 of them being knockouts. It seems that the promo campaign for the bout in October will be fun to follow, as the 26-year-old started the fight with his mouth already.

BBC.com: Tyson Fury v Wladimir Klitschko: Briton wants rid of ‘boring’ boxer

 
British fighter Tyson Fury wants to break Klitschko’s face in their upcoming match, gambling news report. The 26-year-old considers Wladimir Klitschko as boring, and he said his opinion to the Ukrainian in person in a media session. Fury said, “You have about as much charisma as my underpants – zero. I’m interested in breaking your face in.”

The 39-year-old Ukrainian suffered his last defeat in 2004 against Lamon Brewster. Klitschko possesses the belts of WBA, IBF and WBO. He prepares for his 28th heavyweight title match, which is a world record. Followers of gambling facts might know that this will be his 19th title defense in his second world champion spell. However, Fury thinks that this was it for Klitschko.

Fury said, “I’m interested in all of them belts you’ve got on there. I want to rid you out of the heavyweight division. You go on – you’re a sports psychologist, you speak 37 different languages, so what? You’re still a robotic person. You’re still not exciting and fun to watch. I am the new blood in the division, you are an old man.”

Klitschko had a fitting answer for the Briton. He said, “This guy is so entertaining. He sings, he dances, he is a cool dude. He does different things that people like – or hate. Some people adore you, some people say they can’t stand you, which is good.”

Tyson Fury and Wladimir Klitschko met in Dusseldorf, Germany to promote their fight that will be held in the city in October. Fury wants to break Klitschko’s face in, no less, as he considers the Ukrainian as a boring and uncharismatic fighter. Fury said, “It’s a personal mission for me to rid boxing of a boring person like you. Your jab-and-grab style – surely all of Europe wants to see you get beaten and all of Europe and the rest of the world will see you get beaten.”

Fury considers himself Klitschko’s nemesis. He expressed, “I believe he has never faced a challenge like me ever before and I don’t think he will face a challenge like me again.” Followers of live sports results might have noticed that he doesn’t have self-assurance issues it seems. He added, “I’m a unique fighter, one of a kind, there’s never been someone like me before in history. A fighter like me only comes around every 1,000 years.”

Klitschko said that he was a fan of the Briton, and he thinks that Fury could really challenge him in their upcoming fight. He said, “I believe Tyson Fury is really meaning what he is talking about and he is definitely not coming here on October 24 just to be present and be on the canvas. No, he came here to win the championship fight.”

Wladimir Klitschko prepares for his 28th heavyweight title bout, this time against Tyson Fury, as many sports scores fans might know. That would be a world record with Klitschko overtaking Joe Louis. The legendary American fighter currently holds the record together with the Ukrainian. However, the Irishman slammed the Ukrainian’s statistics in a Dusseldorf press conference where the two were promoting the upcoming Tyson Fury v Klitschko match.

The Briton said, “Are you greater than Louis, Ali, Frazier, Holmes? I think not. You’ve just fought bums well selected for you by your management.” Fury, who sometimes underlined his statements with swearing, considers himself “an American-style fighter with European fitness”. Fury wants to break Klitschko’s face in, as he confirmed, adding that he didn’t care about anybody’s opinion of what he said as he didn’t consider himself a role model.

Fury, who kept on abusing Klitschko, also spoke about the size differences, him standing 6 feet 9 inches, three inches taller than Klitschko. He said, “When I look at you I’m not feared. I don’t even see a big man because you’re not only shorter than me but you’re light for a modern heavyweight. You look old even though I think you’ve had botox. Jab-and-grab won’t be enough against me.”

The reverse fixtures in the second round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers are scheduled to this week.
 
Wednesday brings some interesting matches for those, who like to bet on live sports results.
Though Lech Poznan fans might be terrified looking at Sarajevo’s results from last year, it would be surprising if the Poles would be unable to force their way to the next round. Celtic are also favourites against Stjarnan from Iceland. The biggest issue of the Scots expected to be the artificial grass, which might prevent them from fluid play. A galore of goals is not expected from them, but their advance looks safe.The New Saints will have quite a task against the Hungarian champions. Videoton has a 1-0 lead from the first leg, they play at home and will feature all of their foreign players who had visa problems last week. Dundalk will have a chance to upset BATE, so if you fancy football surprises, the Irish might provide you one.

Michael Wilde leads New Saints’ all-time scoring chart in the Welsh Premier League. As some of those, who follow sports scores in the UK might know, he was also top scorer in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers after the first three games. He bagged his three goals against B36 Tórshavn, however TNS might use another couple to overcome a 1-0 deficit against Videoton in Hungary in the second leg of the second qualifying round.

Dundalk is looking for an upset against BATE Borisov. The Irish champions registered a 2-1 away defeat in the first leg in Belarus. David McMillan scored Dundalk’s precious away goal then, and the forward sees a chance for overturning the fixture. He said, “They won’t fancy coming to Oriel Park. We are confident now.” He added, “It was important that we didn’t concede late in the game the other night. A lot of Irish teams would have done that in the past.”

Sarajevo is travelling to Poland with a two-goal deficit to take on Lech Poznan. As the Bosnians were able to register two 3-1 away wins twelve months ago, they might have a shot at advancing this year too. Midfielder Samir Radovac said, “Last season we played better as guests. Let’s hope that’s the case this season too,” gambling news report.

Kazakhstani champions Astana have to overcome only one goal against Maribor at home. The hosts’ line-up will expectedly feature goalkeeper Nenad Eric, who was out in Slovenia last week due to injury. Manager Stanimir Stoilov said, “We need to act wisely and we need the support of the crowd until the very last second.” He added, “Though the first-leg of The Champions League qualifiers result leaves us in a very difficult situation, we played a good game in Maribor and the lads did well.”

Goal.com: Stjarnan – Celtic Preview: Scots hope to avoid slip-up on plastic pitch

 
Celtic won the first leg in the second round of the UEFA Champions League qualifiers against Stjarnan. Ronny Deila’s team is obviously favourite to advance against the champions of Iceland. However, they have to perform well on an artificial playing surface at Stjornuvollur, which will be strange for the Bhoys.

Stjarnan got a lot of criticism for the quality of their turf last year from Motherwell manager Stuart McCall. The Icelanders were able to eliminate the Scottish side in the Europa League qualifiers last summer. Celtic players are in a cheerful mood though, after beating Spanish outfit Eibar 4-1 in a preseason friendly at the weekend, online mobile news report.

Leigh Griffiths, who missed a penalty against Stjarnan last week, scored three against Eibar. He said, “It [the Eibar game] was a good test for us going into Wednesday night. We got the win last Wednesday, but I don’t think we played as well as we could have and we showed against Eibar what we’re all about. I got 90 minutes so I’m feeling sharp, but it’s a different kettle of fish on Wednesday night with the Champions League Qualifiers.”

Meanwhile Stjarnan struggles in Urvalsdeild, the Icelandic top tier, being 10 points behind leaders KR. Manager Runar Pall Sigmundsson thinks that the bad conversion of chances is the main reason of his team underperforming. He said, “We have been dominating games, but we are not taking our chances and it ends up costing us. We have to improve in future games, starting against Celtic.”

The shocking news about Man United Bid for Muller is the latest high-profile transfer story in the German media, though Bayern turned down the offer.

The news about Man United Bid for Muller might be shocking at first, but mainly because of the fee that the Red Devils reportedly offered for the German forward. It might be strange to burn that amount of money on such an unspectacular player. However, Thomas Muller is a special football talent. His intelligence, positioning and reading of the game provides many goal scoring opportunities for himself and for his teammates as well.

Louis van Gaal claimed that he planned to go with a 4-3-3 formation next season. Muller is the ultimate addition to that, as he perfectly fits to a lopsided three-man forward line. He also contributes greatly to his team through is work rate and fitness. He might be far from any Brazilian forward regarding ball skills, but he is far more effective than most of them by always taking up the proper position. The reported EUR 100 million might be still a crazy amount for him, but if he can help United to the title, he might worth it for Van Gaal.

The Guardian: Manchester United target Thomas Müller but Bayern Munich stand firm

Bayern Munich don’t want to transfer another player to Old Trafford. However, as gambling news report that Man United want Muller, it is understood that the German international fancies an opportunity in Louis van Gaal’s squad. Manchester United are allegedly ready to spend more than EUR 80 million on the intelligent forward.

Thomas Muller would reportedly get EUR 20 million per year in Manchester. That equals a GBP 265,000 weekly salary, which is twice as much as the player receives from Bayern. Van Gaal prepares his team in a 4-3-3 for next season. The 25-year-old, who has a good understanding of the game, would be a useful addition to that system.

Though the Bavarians rate the World Cup winning player highly, Pep Guardiola might be not that convinced about his qualities. Keen followers of sports scores might remember that the Catalan manager left out Muller last season, stunning the supporters. The two were also involved in a training ground rift recently. These facts might help Muller to get away from his beloved club.

uk.eurosport.yahoo.com: Premier League – Manchester United ‘make €100m bid for Thomas Muller’

Louis van Gaal mysteriously mentioned a shock move for an attacker recently. According to reports emerged from the German media, Man United want Muller to join them. The story also has that Bayern rejected an initial EUR 82 million offer. That was reportedly followed by an increased bid of EUR 100 million, only to be turned down by club chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge personally.

Thomas Muller plays for Bayern since 2000, making his debut for the first team in 2008. The 25-year-old was built in the Bayern team by Louis van Gaal. Since then he collected four Bundesliga titles and won the Champions League too. With Germany, he won the World Cup last year, having scored five goals throughout the tournament, equaling his tally from 2010, as followers of gambling facts might know.

Though the second bid might be no more than media speculation, it is clear that Muller would be a wonderful signing for Manchester United. The forward is regularly praised for his intelligent positioning, creativity and his productivity. He is also able to do an outstanding job in different roles either in the forward line or in midfield.

Manchester United acquired the services of midfield maestro Bastian Schweinsteiger recently. It seems that Louis van Gaal needs more German talent in his squad, as Man United want Muller as well, according to online mobile news.

The Red Devils reportedly offered EUR 82 million for the forward, but Bayern chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge stated that the club will not sell another one of his top assets for Manchester United. Rummenigge also warned the entire German football.

He said, “The Bundesliga has to finally act. The English are overtaking us left, right and centre. When taking into account transfer market activity, in marketing terms, in TV money – anywhere, really.”

He added, “The Bundesliga has to be careful not to fall further behind, I think. Anyone who follows the transfer market at the moment, within which English clubs work, knows their clubs are being fully upgraded. The Bundesliga has to be careful that we’re not emptied out.”

Jules Bianchi’s death might not come as a shock but it still hurt the world of motorsport.

Bianchi suffered severe head injuries in the 2014 Japanese Grand Prix. He went out of the track in the pouring rain under double yellow flags to hit a recovery truck that was there to pull out Adrian Sutil’s car. The German unfortunately crashed at the same place just minutes before. Despite the very bad conditions, safety car wasn’t deployed.

Tragically, as the inquiry found out, Bianchi was unable to slow down his Marussia, before he left the track. The 25-year-old Frenchman was in coma for nine months before he died in his hometown, Nice on Friday night. He is the first F1 driver to pass away due to injuries sustained in a Formula One car since the great Ayrton Senna died in 1994.

The Telegraph: Jules Bianchi death: Formula One to pay their respects with minute’s silence before Hungarian Grand Prix

Formula One drivers and teams will expectedly hold a minute’s silence before the start of the Hungarian GP on Sunday, gambling news report. They will remember Jules Bianchi, the first F1 driver who died of injuries he suffered in a Formula One Grand Prix in more than twenty years.

The 25-year-old Frenchman crashed in the Japanese Grand Prix last October. His accident was so tough that many of those, who follow sports scores feared the worst. However, Jules Bianchi’s death still shocked the people around motorsports. He passed away on Friday in his hometown, Nice after being in coma for nine months.

The Grand Prix Driver’s Association released a statement about the fight for safety, which never should be over. It said, “It is at times like this that we are brutally reminded of how dangerous racing still remains. Despite considerable improvements, we, the grand prix drivers, owe it to the racing community, to the lost ones and to Jules, his family and friends, to never relent in improving safety.”

SkySports.com: Formula 1 is safe despite Jules Bianchi’s death, says Bernie Ecclestone

Formula One Group Chief Executive Bernie Ecclestone expressed that Formula One is safe after Jules Bianchi’s death. He revealed that his priority is to make the cars faster at the moment, according to online mobile news. He added that he thought that Bianchi, who passed away at 25 in Nice would have wanted the same.

Bianchi suffered an accident at the Japanese Grand Prix in October, 2014. He was in coma for nine months before he died in his hometown. “First he was a very, very, very nice person” Ecclestone commented the sad news. “Secondly, he was very talented, so it’s a great loss, a loss to the sport and obviously a big loss to his parents.”

Ecclestone then added that Jules Bianchi’s death was the consequence of an extremely unfortunate incident, as he hit a truck that was deployed inside the crash barriers to extract Adrian Sutil’s car. He still considers F1 safe. He said, “Formula 1 is safe now, the cars are super safe, the circuit is safe, everything is good, as I say, if that truck hadn’t have been there it wouldn’t have happened.”

Motorsport.com: F1 must never get complacent over safety – Prost

Four-times Formula One world champion Alain Prost revealed that he thinks F1 should never be satisfied with their safety efforts after his fellow Frenchman Jules Bianchi’s death. Bianchi hit a tractor that was on the side of the track to pull out a crashed car without the safety car being deployed. As a result of the accident, F1 adopted the virtual safety car system, as keen followers of live sports results might remember.

Prost said, “I just think there was a small misjudgment that cost very dearly. There was an accident, pouring rain and appalling visibility. There should have been a safety car to slow the race down before the recovery truck went on track – that’s the misjudgment.”

He added “They have done a lot for safety. We had not had a fatal crash in F1 for 21 years, it means that a lot of work was done. But like everywhere, there’s always a little bit more to be done. The only thing that still was to be done for safety was about this recovery truck that goes on the circuit.”

He was in coma for nine months before he died in his hometown. “First he was a very, very, very nice person” Ecclestone commented the sad news. “Secondly, he was very talented, so it’s a great loss, a loss to the sport and obviously a big loss to his parents.”

Ecclestone then added that Jules Bianchi’s death was the consequence of an extremely unfortunate incident, as he hit a truck that was deployed inside the crash barriers to extract Adrian Sutil’s car. He still considers F1 safe. He said, “Formula 1 is safe now, the cars are super safe, the circuit is safe, everything is good, as I say, if that truck hadn’t have been there it wouldn’t have happened.”

Motorsport.com: F1 must never get complacent over safety – Prost

Four-times Formula One world champion Alain Prost revealed that he thinks F1 should never be satisfied with their safety efforts after his fellow Frenchman Jules Bianchi’s death. Bianchi hit a tractor that was on the side of the track to pull out a crashed car without the safety car being deployed. As a result of the accident, F1 adopted the virtual safety car system, as keen followers of live sports results might remember.

Prost said, “I just think there was a small misjudgment that cost very dearly. There was an accident, pouring rain and appalling visibility. There should have been a safety car to slow the race down before the recovery truck went on track – that’s the misjudgment.”

He added “They have done a lot for safety. We had not had a fatal crash in F1 for 21 years, it means that a lot of work was done. But like everywhere, there’s always a little bit more to be done. The only thing that still was to be done for safety was about this recovery truck that goes on the circuit.”

Premier League sponsors and broadcasters were asked to consider leaving the game. The reason is that many clubs refuse to develop their stadium’s disabled facilities.

Currently only three Premier League stadiums are able to fulfill the regulations. The rest of them are in constant violation of policies regarding wheelchair spaces and other services for disabled spectators.

Lord Holmes is a Conservative peer and former nine-times Paralympic gold medalist. Holmes called Premier League sponsors and clubs to reconsider their relationships with clubs failing to comply with disabled facility regulations. According to a new bill proposal, Premier League stadiums might be closed down if they fail to meet the minimum guidelines.

It was told to Premier League sponsors and broadcasters that they should avoid football stadiums until those don’t provide useful facilities for disabled fans, gambling news report. The most successful Paralympic swimmer of Great Britain, Lord Holmes of Richmond addressed the House of Lords with the problem.

He said, “What we see is nothing short of shambolic. Today, I’m going to write to the sponsors of the Premier League and the broadcast partners to suggest to them that if there isn’t considerable progress – so far I think we can describe it as glacial progress – in this area they should consider their relationship with football and how that fits with their ethical state in the market.”

Only three Premier League stadiums, the properties of Swansea, Bournemouth and Leicester have enough wheelchair spaces, according to online mobile news. A 2014 BBC survey pointed out that eight out of 20 top light football stadiums failed to offer half of the required wheelchair spaces.

The disability commissioner of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) asks Premier League sponsors to think about withdrawing from financial support of clubs. Football clubs should offer enough facilities for disabled people to retain the benefits of sponsorships.

Nine-times Paralympic Games swimming gold medalist, Lord Holmes, is fed up with disputing with the clubs, latest gambling news report. For example, Chelsea representatives stated that their old ground is not suited to offer enough wheelchair spaces considering safety measurements. Chelsea made a promise of fulfilling the wheelchair space quota, when they will build a new stadium.

However, Holmes argues that clubs are ready to arrange their grounds immediately, when new TV facilities are to be installed. Holmes, said “Whether it’s the Fifa debacle, casual sexism or the national scandal of discrimination against disabled fans, the need for football to discover its moral compass has never been greater. Poor access and discrimination against disabled fans has tarnished the reputation of football for too long.”

Before Lord Chris Holmes’ calls were made in the House of Lords, it was already in the newspapers that the nine-times Paralympic gold medallist considers the state of Premier League football stadiums a national scandal, regarding facilities for disabled people.

He thinks that “some clubs are still stuck in the dark ages”, when referring to some incidents, disabled people were involved in when attending football matches in the English top flight. According to a new bill proposal, Premier League stadiums would lose their safety licenses unless meeting the minimum quota of wheelchair spaces and other facilities. This would mean that those stadiums were unable to host football matches.

It was reported by sports scores news earlier this year that three supporters were dispossessed by their crutches and walking sticks when attending a Premier League football match between Manchester United and Arsenal. A police liaison officer commented the incident, saying the stewards lacked common sense completely.

Though the German GP is expected to return next year after it was included to the 2016 Formula One calendar, its future is not safe at all.

The 2015 German GP was originally scheduled to this weekend. However as the Nurburgring and the Hockenheimring both struggle financially, the event was dropped from this year’s Formula One calendar. Since Stirling Moss won the 1961 race in a Lotus-Climax at the 22-kilometer-long Nurbugring Nordschleife, no year passed without Germany hosting a Formula One Grand Prix.

Though Formula One was done with the Nordschleife after Niki Lauda’s horrible accident in 1976, it was always either the Nurburgring Sudschleife or the Hockenheimring that hosted the event since 1961. With the Nurbugring being pulled out this year, possibly for good, the future of the German GP lies at Hockenheim. But first of all, a sold out race is a must for 2016.

A sold out 2016 Grand Prix in Hockenheim might save the future of Formula One in Germany. The track is also prepared to hold the 2017 German GP if needed, gambling news report. To secure a long term future for the race in Germany, it is necessary to attract the fans in numbers.

The 2015 German GP was scheduled to this weekend initially before it was cancelled in March, as keen followers of live sports results might remember. The Nurburgring would have hosted this year’s event originally, however the leaders of the circuit were unable to reach an agreement with Bernie Ecclestone.

To step in for 2015 wouldn’t be a profitable move for Hockenheim. However the venue had no problem with the 2016 German GP. So that the event was scheduled to the recently issued provisional 2016 calendar, that includes as much as 21 races. If everything goes according to plans, next year’s season would be the longest ever in Formula One history.

Hockenheimring executives stated that a sold out 2016 German GP is a must for keeping the event in the Formula One calendar for long. The German Grand Prix was scheduled for 2016 but that doesn’t guarantee that the series will return to the country in the future beyond next year.

It never happened since 1960 that the German GP was left out from the F1 calendar, as many of those who follow sports scores might know. This year however Nurbugring pulled out because of financial problems in March. Then it was too late to strike a lucrative deal with Hockenheim, and the 2015 German Grand Prix was dropped.

The event was already under threat in the past years. Sebastian Vettel might have dominated the series, but home supporters just weren’t interested. Only 50,000 supporters were watching Nico Rosberg claiming his home victory in a Mercedes last year. Now it seems that the 2016 German GP will be held at Hockenheim, but nothing else is a certainty.

Though Mercedes was there to help out the organizers, no deal was agreed in March. This meant that the German GP was dropped from the 2015 Formula One calendar after it was alternated between Nurburgring and Hockenheim for years.

Georg Seiler, Hockenheimring’s managing director expressed that the future of the German GP is up to the 2016 event. According to experts only a sold out event can keep Germany in the F1 calendar. Seiler said, “We need a well filled house next year so that Formula One has a future. We must tell the fans: come to the race next year and secure the future of F1 at Hockenheim.”

He added, “It is very sad because Formula One is an image carrier all over the world. For other countries it is part of their tourism promotion, money comes from other areas and they can stage the races without problems.”

Rivaldo and son, 20-year-old Rivaldinho played together for Mogi Mirim last year. That is the club where Rivaldo jump-started his career in the early nineties.

And that is the club where he became club president in 2008. He also returned as a player twice for them. However he decided to finish his playing career recently. But it was tough for him, as Mogi Mirim struggled.

After a while Rivaldo returned to the team that was on the bottom of the Brazilian Serie B table. Since then, they are unbeaten in two games. Moreover, Rivaldo and son both scored against Macae most recently. The World Cup winner contributed to all of his team’s three goals. He scored one himself and his son bagged a brace.

The World Cup winner was playing for Barcelona at the peak of his career. Now he spent 50 minutes on the pitch to get involved in all three of his team’s goals. He contributed to his son’s diving header with a key pass in the build-up as early as the third minute.

Rivaldo and son, Rivaldinho then scored two more. The former world class player found the net from the spot in the 17th minute. Then Rivaldinho converted a one-on-one towards half-time.

Rivaldo set up the assist before his son’s header with a key pass in the third minute. Then he scored from a penalty, before his son registered the third. Many of those who follow sports scores might remember famous father and son moments. There was Briand and Nigel Clough, Cesare and Paolo Maldini, but none of them played together.

The 17-year-old Eidur Gudjohnsen replaced his father, Arnor, 34 then, in an Iceland international game in 1996. They weren’t together on the pitch though like Rivaldo and son.

The Micronesia national football team made the news all over the world.

Their 46-0 record defeat was shown or mentioned in sports news everywhere. They are doomed to failure without the support of the international football federation. Development and the spreading of grassroots football are virtually impossible without help from the FIFA.Micronesia applied for a FIFA membership before, but the organization did not incorporate them yet.

Once they joined, Micronesia will apply for a membership in the Asian Football Confederation.

Celebcafe.org: Micronesia suffer third record defeat as they lose 46-0 to Vanuatu

The Micronesia national football team is planning to join the Asian Football Confederation. Just after they registered a 46-0 record defeat against Vanuatu, they are preparing to compete against teams like Australia, Japan or South Korea. To make this step though, they will need FIFA recognition first.

This might change as their 46-0 record defeat against Vanuatu was all over the sports scores news. Micronesia’s Aussie coach Stan Foster hopes the defeats might raise the attention of FIFA.

He said, “Even though [these defeats] have been bad publicity in the way of scores, I’m hoping that there’ll be a sympathetic ear because of that by FIFA. And with [FIFA affiliation] comes technical advisors, maybe coaches that will be stationed either semi-permanently or permanently on each of the three main islands that are encouraging grassroots soccer.”

Many followers of live sports results have signed it already.

Watson said, “The fact Micronesia was even at the Pacific Games was a near miracle and owed so much to years of hard work from the country’s unpaid coaches, players and administrators. Micronesia was the only nation at the Games not to receive any development funding from FIFA.”

Roger Federer lost in four sets against Novak Djokovic in a vastly interesting and thrilling gentlemen’s singles final of the 2015 Wimbledon Championships.
 

A fitting match closed the men’s singles event of the Wimbledon 2015 final, as the world’s two best players met at the Centre Court of the All England Club. Though Roger Federer played as good as ever in the tournament, Novak Djokovic won the first set of the title decider in a tie-break. The second set brought the best tie-break in Wimbledon in 35 years, as Federer outlasted seven Djokovic set points to equalize. The momentum seemed to be on Federer’s side after that, however Djokovic was able to shape up, and he came back stronger. The rain caused a short stoppage in the third set, and after the players returned, it was virtually no question that the Serb will wrap up the match eventually.

The Guardian: Wimbledon 2015 final: Novak Djokovic ends era of Big Four to stand alone

 

After Novak Djokovic won the Wimbledon 2015 final of the men’s singles event, an era is considered to be over. There is no more the domination of the big four of Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. Djokovic is clearly the best of the world and he is ahead of the others.

By beating Roger Federer in London, Djokovic captured his third Wimbledon title, and his ninth Grand Slam title overall. The Serb would have retained the leading spot in the ATP ranking even if he went down against Federer in the Sunday final anyway, however, by conquering the Centre Court once again, he made a statement, pointing out to followers of sports scores that he is the undisputable number one at the moment.

Djokovic demonstrated that when he is in top form, no one is able to overcome him. Even Federer, who is in way better shape than he was in the last couple of years, was unable to beat the Serb though they were playing in Wimbledon Centre Court, which is considered as the Swiss’ own house, where he won a record seven titles.

At the end of an interesting and exciting Wimbledon tournament, the best player in the world picked up the title both in the gentlemen’s and in the ladies’ singles competition. After Serena Williams won on Saturday, Novak Djokovic was also able to top his own field in a tight game against Roger Federer.

The match also included an instant classic tie-break at the end of the second set. According to pundits and keen followers of live sports results, the Wimbledon 2015 final was the best in that regard since the legendary final between Bjorn Borg and John McEnroe in 1980. Federer was able to avoid seven Djokovic set points, to win it by 12-10.

Djokovic became really upset only once during the final, and if he will reach a point, where he will be able to handle the biggest matches without such explosions, he might be simply unbeatable. Yet, he overcame this episode, and wrapped up the game as only he can, to win his third Wimbledon title.

Federer said, “I still think I had a great tournament. You can have good tournaments without winning as well at the end. I still won six matches and lost one. The ratio still remains very good. But of course, you walk away empty-handed.” He added, “I’m right there. My game is good. I got broken very few times this tournament. I played on my terms. Things are all right.”

Federer is 33, which is an age when most tennis players have retired already. However the Swiss continues his career and he just reinforced his status as world’s number 2 with his performance and his achievement, collecting the runners-up trophy in Southwest London.

Australia veteran Chris Rogers expressed that he wasn’t totally happy with their performance, gambling news report. He said, “I think they are probably in a happier position at the moment.

He added, “To get out the way a lot of us did does hurt especially as there was an opportunity to make it count today. I got a 90 and there were three thirties. We think we are better than that. But when you are positive and going at it you are going to get out these days.”

Iker Casillas has been rumoured to be leaving Real Madrid ever since José Mourinho started benching him, but Spain’s and Real Madrid’s captain kept fighting for his place. However, this summer’s transfer window could really be the end of an era.
 

FC Porto are close to naming Iker Casillas as their new player, according to the reports of several Portuguese and Spanish gambling news. Casillas would be the biggest star of the Portuguese side, the only question is if he is willing to actually sign for them.

Goal: Casillas edging closer to Porto

 

Iker Casillas is on the edge of reaching an agreement with FC Porto. He played more than 700 games and broke tons of records with the Royal Club, but right now he is very close to leave his current side. He would be the brightest star and the highest paid player if he joined the Portuguese team.

Online gambling news from Spain report that Real Madrid’s aim for this summer is to strengthen their squad with Manchester United’s David De Gea. The young Spaniard would be Keylor Navas’ competitor for the starting goalkeeper’s position, and there would be no more place left for the current number 1.

Los Blancos will do everything in their power in order to find the most suitable club for their legendary goalkeeper. Casillas and his agent hope for a EUR 15 million exit payment, but it is unlikely that the club would pay him that amount, so still a lot of negotiations are ahead of the two actors.

Meanwhile, Carlo Cutropia, Iker’s representative, has given an interview to Record magazine on Monday, in which he said that the 3-time Champions League winner would be happy to join FC Porto. “Casillas is pretty excited about the opportunity to join Porto. We hope Real Madrid will allow him to move on and give him an easy exit,” he said.

AS: Iker Casillas’ arrival may cause unrest at FC Porto

 

Spanish daily magazines highlight the fact that Iker Casillas signing for FC Porto might cause a huge shock for Portuguese football. That is because FC Porto are usually known for purchasing players for cheap transfer fees and letting them go to larger teams for larger amounts of money.

That is not the case with Iker Casillas, because, he might join the team for free, but he would be the highest paid player in the squad, which could lead to discontent among other players. Online mobile news report that Casillas would earn EUR 3,5 million at Porto, while he makes EUR 7,5 million at Real Madrid.

In addition, it is also unknown whether Casillas wants to play in a league which is far weaker than the Liga BBVA. The Spanish first division is the fourth strongest league economically, while the Portuguese is only the 11th. Only the transfer fee of Cristiano Ronaldo would be enough to cover the budget of several clubs in the Primeira Liga.

However, it is also known for sure that Casillas’ wife would have no problem finding a new job in the Portugal city. Sara Carbonero has become extremely popular in the entire country thanks to the interview which she made with Casillas after the 2010 World Cup, when he kissed her on television, during a live broadcast.

Marca: Iker Casillas called by Lopetegui

 

According to the reports of the latest gambling news, Julen Lopetegui has contacted Iker Casillas in order to try to convince him to join his side. His main goal with the call was to find out whether Iker Casillas is even interested in joining the Portuguese side, or not.

The Basque manager, who is now the head boss of the Dragoes, has heard about the rumours that his team wanted to sign Real Madrid’s captain. He did not care about the rumours, he wanted to know the real intentions of the main character of the latest transfer news, so he called the goalkeeper.

Iker Casillas has worked together with Julen Lopetegui in the past and they have quite a good relationship, supposedly. Lopetegui was a member of the Spanish national team’s coaching stuff during Inaki Saez’ reign at the FIFA World Cup 2002 in Japan and South-Korea.

The legendary goalkeeper is still on his vacation for the next few days and will start the pre-season with his current team on 10 July. However, if the Basque manager’s calls were not useless and he did manage to convince Real Madrid’s captain, then he might start packing as soon as possible.

Casillas and his agent hope for a EUR 15 million exit payment, but it is unlikely that the club would pay him that amount, so still a lot of negotiations are ahead of the two actors.

Meanwhile, Carlo Cutropia, Iker’s representative, has given an interview to Record magazine on Monday, in which he said that the 3-time Champions League winner would be happy to join FC Porto. “Casillas is pretty excited about the opportunity to join Porto. We hope Real Madrid will allow him to move on and give him an easy exit,” he said.

AS: Iker Casillas’ arrival may cause unrest at FC Porto

 

Spanish daily magazines highlight the fact that Iker Casillas signing for FC Porto might cause a huge shock for Portuguese football. That is because FC Porto are usually known for purchasing players for cheap transfer fees and letting them go to larger teams for larger amounts of money.

That is not the case with Iker Casillas, because, he might join the team for free, but he would be the highest paid player in the squad, which could lead to discontent among other players. Online mobile news report that Casillas would earn EUR 3,5 million at Porto, while he makes EUR 7,5 million at Real Madrid.

In addition, it is also unknown whether Casillas wants to play in a league which is far weaker than the Liga BBVA. The Spanish first division is the fourth strongest league economically, while the Portuguese is only the 11th. Only the transfer fee of Cristiano Ronaldo would be enough to cover the budget of several clubs in the Primeira Liga.

However, it is also known for sure that Casillas’ wife would have no problem finding a new job in the Portugal city. Sara Carbonero has become extremely popular in the entire country thanks to the interview which she made with Casillas after the 2010 World Cup, when he kissed her on television, during a live broadcast.

Marca: Iker Casillas called by Lopetegui

 

According to the reports of the latest gambling news, Julen Lopetegui has contacted Iker Casillas in order to try to convince him to join his side. His main goal with the call was to find out whether Iker Casillas is even interested in joining the Portuguese side, or not.

The Basque manager, who is now the head boss of the Dragoes, has heard about the rumours that his team wanted to sign Real Madrid’s captain. He did not care about the rumours, he wanted to know the real intentions of the main character of the latest transfer news, so he called the goalkeeper.

Iker Casillas has worked together with Julen Lopetegui in the past and they have quite a good relationship, supposedly. Lopetegui was a member of the Spanish national team’s coaching stuff during Inaki Saez’ reign at the FIFA World Cup 2002 in Japan and South-Korea.

The legendary goalkeeper is still on his vacation for the next few days and will start the pre-season with his current team on 10 July. However, if the Basque manager’s calls were not useless and he did manage to convince Real Madrid’s captain, then he might start packing as soon as possible.

Caroline Wozniacki thinks that those who arrange tennis schedules in Wimbledon, tend to prefer male players to female colleagues, as women have hardly any opportunity to show themselves on the Centre Court. After he crashed out on a smaller court, the major venue saw a Roger Federer, who looked ten years younger than his actual age, taking Roberto Bautista Agut apart at ease. The Swiss, who is on his way to his record eight Wimbledon title, might have terrified his rivals with that outstanding performance. The second week also saw another special moment, when the Williams sisters faced each other on the Centre Court.

 

The Guardian: Caroline Wozniacki accuses Wimbledon of a bias to men on show courts

 

Danish professional tennis player Carolin Wozniacki accused the Wimbledon organizers with some sort of sexism as he thinks that female players don’t get as much playing time at the major courts like their male colleagues. Wozniacki slapped the Wimbledon directors after she crashed out in the round of 16.

The 6-4, 6-4 loss against Garbiñe Muguruza was the fifth exit from the tournament at that stage in Wozniacki’s career, as she never reached the quarter-finals in Southwest London. She suggested angrily that women tennis players should get exactly the number of matches on the show courts like men do, gambling news report.

She said, “I would love to play on a big court. I think that’s what it’s all about; you work hard and practice to play on the big courts. The women really haven’t gotten the opportunity here to play on the big courts. You only get one women’s match on Court One and Centre Court.”

Butista Agut had no answer for the wide range of shots Federer used in their respective match.

American tennis superstar Serena Williams defeated her older sister in the fourth round of the Wimbledon Championships. She said after the game, “It definitely doesn’t get easier. But today I was out there, and I thought: ‘Wow. I’m 33, and she just turned 35. I don’t know how many more moments like this we’ll have.’ ”

Serena Williams expressed that she wanted to keep on playing for a few years, but maybe that was the last time she had the opportunity to play against her sister on the Wimbledon Centre Court, where each of them won five singles titles. She added, “I just wanted to take the moment in. I remember when we were 8 years old. We dreamed of these moments. It was kind of surreal there.”

Formula One must be really boring now. Not just for spectators, but for drivers as well. Lewis Hamilton is so fed up with things for example, that he started to criticize… the trophies. Not the lack of competition, the artificial overtaking process or the quiet and not very intimidating cars, but he slapped those who provide the actual pieces representing Grand Prix wins on the podium.

He wants quality pieces, preferably made of gold, okay, who doesn’t, but it is somehow ridiculous if you hear a driver complaining about baubles. Especially if that particular driver is a two-time world champion, who won his first British Grand Prix in 2008 in pouring rain…

The Guardian: Lewis Hamilton: British Grand Prix gives me the biggest buzz

Two-time British world champion driver Lewis Hamilton is the number one favourite to win the 2015 British Grand Prix. He won four out of eight races this year and in the build up to this year’s event, he recalled the 2008 Silverstone race, where he was able to pull out a victory in his second season.

“My favourite British Grand Prix is still that win in the rain,” he said. “I qualified fourth but then the heavens opened and I knew that it was my day. I got a great start and I just followed the lines that I took from my experience of Formula Renault days. It was a great race and everybody was standing every single time I went through Abbey, in the pouring rain with umbrellas up. That was a really special time. I won by 68 seconds.”

Seven years passed since Hamilton’s first championship-winning season, Formula One is considered to be in decline, but Mercedes’ British driver is the number one personality in the business, according to British followers of sports scores. Without him, the stands of the former military airport probably wouldn’t be packed this weekend, but he is a guarantee for high spectator numbers.

The Telegraph: Lewis Hamilton is fed up with the poor standard of trophies in Formula One

Lewis Hamilton has won so many trophies in his Formula One career that he became an expert on the quality of the awards. No joke, and it wasn’t posted on a brand new gambling blog started by Hamilton either, this is really about those pieces the drivers get on the podium.
Hamilton prefers gold, though it turned out that he will be racing at Silverstone for another plastic bauble this weekend, after online gambling news revealed the trophy of this year’s British Grand Prix. Hamilton revealed that he was so annoyed by its cheapness that he took the point to Bernie Ecclestone, the owner of the commercial rights of F1.

Hamilton said, “We just need to make better trophies – it’s shocking how bad the trophies are.The trophies are as good as… at go kart level, it was really bad.” He went on to add, “Formula Renault was just little boxes with a car in the middle. Formula Three was good, and at the beginning of my Formula One career the trophies were really good. But now they are just terrible man. They are so bad. I told Bernie and he got the trophy guy in the room and I just said, ‘you know’.”

BBC.com: Nic Hamilton: From computer games with Lewis to racing history

While Lewis Hamilton was on the racing track all the time to pursue his dreams about becoming a Formula One world champion, his younger brother, Nic, who has cerebral palsy, spent virtually three years in his bedroom to do something similar in the virtual world.

Nic Hamilton became so good at computer racing games, that after a while Lewis didn’t have any chance against him, though the latter had the occasion to try a few professional simulators during his career.

Though Nic’s condition makes it difficult to walk and also causes pain for him and tied him to a wheelchair for the majority of his childhood, he was so good at simulators, that he had the opportunity to become a real racing driver.

At 23 he became the first disabled driver in the history of the British Touring Car Championship last weekend, gambling news report. “I became UK online champion in 2009”, he expressed “And it got to a point that when I was playing against Lewis I was always faster than him.”

He added, “Some people might call it sad, but for me it was a form of motorsport and actually the thing that started my whole career. That’s how it became real – basically it was his idea saying: ‘You need to get in a real car.”

Argentina met Paraguay again at the 2015 Copa America after the two sides played a 2–2 draw against each other already in their Group B meeting. Lionel Messi and his teammates had the upper hand on that occasion, but somehow they were unable to finish the game off and Paraguay came back to equalize and grab an important point.

This time Argentina took a two-goal lead once again, but now they did not let the same happen, though Lucas Barrios made it 2–1 before half time. Tata Martino set his players to terminator mode for the second half however and they scored four more to back their claim to the title, which they can win against hosts Chile who look for their maiden Copa victory.

SkySports.com: Argentina 6-1 Paraguay: Angel Di Maria nets twice in easy win

Argentina hammered Paraguay in the second semifinal of the Copa America and will meet with Chile in the title decider on Saturday. Argentina put six past Paraguay goalkeeper Justo Willar and the goals of Albiceleste came from Angel di Maria, Marcos Rojo, Javier Pastore, Sergio Aguero and Gonzalo Higuain, online gambling news report.

Just before half-time it seemed that the game would be much more interesting, when Lucas Barrios made it 2–1. However this time Paraguay weren’t able to come back after being 2–0 down like in the group stage match of the two, like many of those who follow sports scores would recall.

Though Argentina had a lot of chances against Colombia in the quarter-final and still were unable to score, they were much more clinical against Paraguay. Marcus Rojo took the lead after 15 minutes of football from a Lionel Messi free kick, and after that the Argentinian attackers had a lot of space to create goal-scoring opportunities as Paraguay was pushing desperately.

The Guardian: Argentina hit Paraguay for six to reach Copa America final

In the semifinal against Paraguay, Argentina showed their best display in the Copa America so far and swept their opponents aside easily with a 6–1 scoreline. That result sent Tata Martino’s team to the final where they will play against hosts Chile, gambling online news report.

Though he did not score himself, the key role was Lionel Messi’s, who organized his team’s attacking play and who also delivered three assists. Argentina had a tally of four goals from their first four matches in the Copa America, but against Paraguay they were able to score more than that in a single game. Messi expressed that the reason behind the considerable low amount of goals in the early stages of the tournament wasn’t Argentina playing badly.

“We talked about that just before the match,” said Messi, “And we said it was just chance that we hadn’t scored more because we’ve been playing well. Today all the goals came at once.” Paraguay lost their two strikers because of injuries in the first half, and though substitute forward Lucas Barrios was able to make it 2–1, Paraguay were never in contention to reach the final, as Argentina were rolling in the second half.

When Lucas Barrios scored with a left-footer to make it 2–1, many of those who follow live sports results would think that Paraguay could be able to equalize again after going down 2–0 against Argentina, as they did in their group match. However this time Argentina came out to the second half as a virtually unbeatable side and finished the game with an embarrassing result for Paraguay.

La Albiceleste had a lot of opportunities to finish the game on the break in their group stage match, but those chances left unconverted. This time the setting was similar, however Messi and co. kept on scoring and with only eight minutes into the second half it was 4–1 and all over practically.

It is interesting that Paraguay weren’t playing any worse than they did in their first match against Argentina at the 2015 Copa America, but Argentina were so much better and more clinical that La Albirroja just didn’t have any chance to reach the final of the competition.

Chile will take on Uruguay in the first quarter-final of the 44th edition of the Copa America. This match could be one of the most intriguing clashes in the tournament as the two teams have characteristically different styles and mentalities. Chile will play on the floor, attacking and pressing all the time while Uruguay is going to sit back and try to win set pieces in the opposition’s half. The hosts, who seriously lack height, have troubles with high balls and La Celeste could be able to exploit this despite the fact that Chile will play in front of their own crowd.

 

IBTimes.com: Chile vs. Uruguay 2015: Prediction, Preview For Copa America Quarterfinal

 

In the first quarter-final of the 2015 Copa America the hosts will entertain the title-holders. Uruguay is the most successful team in the history of the competition with 15 titles, while Chile have yet to win their first Copa despite taking part in all the 44 edition of the tournament.

Chile have never had a chance like this to win the Copa or any other international trophy, which puts a considerable amount of pressure on the team. The group of players is the best in quality the nation ever had, however their display was far from immaculate in the group stages, as followers of live sports results might have noticed.

Arturo Vidal and co. were the best against Bolivia, in a match when the pressure was off, with advancing already secured. However their defensive problems and their lack of height contributed significantly to a 3–3 scoreline against Mexico, and all this could be exploited by Uruguay too, but the hosts are still the favourites to advance.

Uruguay coach Jorge Sampaoli thinks that title-holders Uruguay will cause a lot of problems in their respective Copa America quarter-final at the Estadio Nacional. After winning group A convincingly, La Roja is on track to win its first title in the 99-year long history of the competition, to please all the Chileans who follow sports scores.

However, Sampaoli outlined that Uruguay’s style will make their quarter-final a troublesome tie, online gambling news report. He said, “I believe the game for us is a final and it will be very complicated due to the opponents’ characteristics, We will play against a team which knows how to play this kind of game. These are distinct matches with a mental factor.”

He also spoke about the aerial threat Uruguay poses. He expressed, “They have played against teams with more height than us and have always scored goals because they have good headers of the ball.” He went on to emphasize the importance of Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez. He said, “Alexis has to play an integral role for the function of the Chilean attack and has to impose himself with his skill and the form he is in.”

Chile racked up 10 goals in the group stage of the Copa, with no other team reaching five, and this should indicate that they are on a level where it is no problem for them to convert their chances. However, Chilean football expert Leonardo Veliz expressed that they weren’t as impressive in the first phase as their tally would suggest, according to gambling news.

“The Chile that qualified did not convince me,” he expressed. “Its apparent brilliance came only against an already qualified Bolivia. Those five goals against Bolivia hide a reality. There are great individual strengths… but also gaping collective weaknesses which could be exposed against opponents with more quality.”

They will have 90 minutes to seal the game before a possible penalty shoot-out against a Uruguay team that is capable of knocking out the hosts. Even without their biggest star, the banned Luis Suarez, because their strengths are the organized defending and nodding in high balls in the opposition’s box.

The Warriors refused to relinquish their momentum as they won the title 4-2.

Lebron James was the first player in NBA history to enter five consecutive championship finals with two different teams. The Cleveland Cavaliers have never won a game in an NBA Final. Lebron and Cavaliers were out to make history as Cleveland welcomed back with open arms their prodigal son and only hope in four-title holder Lebron James.
The Golden State Warriors won 67 games in the 2014-2015 season making gambling news. The Warriors and NBA MVP Stephen Curry were ready to dominate the post season in an effort to win their first finals since 1975.

Game four was a continuation of the surge of momentum that was seen by Golden State at the end of the fourth quarter in Game three. The adjustment made by Warriors coach Steve Kerr to go with a smaller playing force in order to maximize ball movement seemed to pay off brilliantly in Game and set the tone for Game five. Cleveland kept Timofey Mozgov from most of the game in order to do “go small.”

The new problem was that Golden State were getting far more boards than Cleveland which was the weapon that carried the Cavaliers to the finals. With Harrison Barnes and Draymond Green dominating boards over Cleveland, Mozgov was missed. Unfortunately Lebron had to over-exceed his boundaries again. His 40 points made up almost half the total Cavalier points and his 14 rebounds almost a third.

Lebron made almost twice as many assists as the entire Cavalier team. Cavalier guards JR Smith and Iman Shumpert were incapable of producing for 48 minutes simply because they’ve never had to. Matthew Dellavedova wasn’t a premier player, but his notable contributions were regarded by Cleveland as heroic and regarded as “folklore in the making.”

Golden State’s Curry cannot be used as evidence of poor Cavalier defense because he’s a superior shot maker whose ability to set up plays to a “less weary” Warriors team was the advantage they had over a Cavalier team who continued to suffer from a seven-man rotation. No punter nor layman was surprised by the 104-91 win. Only the bravest punters using sports scores news should wage on a Cavaliers victory in Game 6.

Coach Kerr’s adjustment to the Warriors line-up was the replacement of Andrew Bogut for Andre Iguodala. The choice resulted in Iquodala’s 25-point game and the Finals MVP award. Draymond Green, who had a triple-double, was moved to the center for the Warriors to cover Mozgov, who was put back into the normal line up for Cleveland. The move by Coach Kerr proved gutsy, but seemed to favor Golden State.

With Harrison Barnes covering Tristan Thompson, the Cavaliers best rebounder, it seemed that both teams were going “big” once again. Luckily Iguodala helped the Warriors overtake the Cavaliers in rebounding while putting more pressure on them individually to perform. This plan by Golden State almost appears to be a same plan performed against them by Cleveland in Games two and three.

Although Cleveland tried many things to put pressure back on the Warriors and tie up their offense, but ended up unsuccessful. Smith performed too far outside his comfort zone to be a larger factor and Dellavedova proved too weak a player to slow down Curry who had 25 points. Although Lebron had 32 points, 18 rebounds and nine assists, his shooting couldn’t make more of a difference.

The halftime score of 45-43 may have given some punters gambling from recent sports scores had a moment of regret for not waging on Cleveland. Cleveland’s higher turnover rate also contributed to their demise. Although Cleveland did surpass the Warriors in rebounds, the Cavaliers 39 percent shooting prevented them from taking advantage of their opportunities.
