Leverkusen lost to third-tier Bielefeld.

Holders Bayer Leverkusen are knocked out as third-tier Arminia Bielefeld reach the DFB Cup final. Bayer Leverkusen were the latest victims of Arminia Bielefeld's giant-killing DFB Cup campaign, with the third-tier club coming from behind to win 2-1 and go to the final. Bielefeld had defeated Bundesliga teams Union Berlin (2-0), Freiburg (3-1) and Werder Bremen (2-1) in previous rounds to go to the final four, but there was a general belief that Xabi Alonso's defending cup holders would be too much for them. So, when Jonathan Tah volleyed home an early goal from Amine Adli's flick-on at a corner, the game appeared to be going as planned. Bielefeld quickly equalized after Marius Wörl took advantage of a loose ball inside the Leverkusen penalty area and curled a shot past Lukáš Hrádecký. Bielefeld's home crowd cheered them on, and they nearly scored again when Noah Sarenren Bazee went one-on-one with Hrádecký. However, the goalie made an incredible save. On the strok...

How will Group E finish if all four teams are tied on points? 🧠.

With Group E still hanging in the balance, the final day of group matches in EURO 2024 could include an intriguing story twist.


Slovakia and Romania are engaged in a 1-1 draw, while Ukraine's match with Belgium remains goalless.


With little under 20 minutes left in both games, this is how things are presently expected to end:

Group E's current situation at halftime:

1. Romania (4 points) 
2. Belgium (4 points).
3. Slovakia (4 points)
4. Ukraine (4 points).

Despite having more points than third-placed Hungary, Ukraine was eliminated. 🫠


Another possible wrinkle is that teams could be bumped up or down based on their respective disciplinary histories.

Denmark finished second in Group C on Tuesday because they received fewer yellow cards than Slovenia, despite being tied on points and goal difference.

Thierry Henry was denied a joyful homecoming as France was defeated by gold medal winners Spain.

Exactly 36 years after Vinnie Jones, Dave Beasant, Lawrie Sanchez, and others ripped up the rulebook to propel Bobby Gould's Wimbledon to a storied FA Cup victory, Thierry Henry's France fell agonisingly short of capturing an emotional Olympic gold medal in front of a sold-out Parc des Princes in Paris. Henry, who gave his young French team the nickname the 'Crazy Ones' due to their fun-loving nature, won nearly everything as a player, and despite the stars appearing to align for a historic gold medal on home turf, the Arsenal legend was overshadowed by Santi Denia's slick Spaniards in a dramatic 5-3 extra-time defeat. Sergio Camello of Rayo Vallecano was their unexpected late nemesis, dunking French goalkeeper Guillaume Restes with 100 minutes on the clock to startle a stunned capacity crowd. And he delivered a virtual carbon copy of that finish with the game's final kick, charging in on goal as the French flung bodies forward to slot past Restes and cruelly ...
