Marc-Andre ter Stegen plans to speak with Hansi Flick if he feels pleased about Barcelona's comeback.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen, the Barcelona goalkeeper, appears to be nearing the end of his recovery after damaging ligaments in his knee in September. After an operation and six months of recuperation, ter Stegen just resumed training with the rest of the club, raising the issue of whether he will play again this summer. The 32-year-old is the club captain and has been the undisputed number one for some time, but after a lengthy injury and with Barcelona in the midst of the title race, the Copa del Rey final, and the Champions League, there are understandable doubts about whether it is the right time to change goalkeepers. Furthermore, Barcelona is yet to taste loss since adding Wojciech Szczesny as an injury replacement. Despite a rocky start, the Polish veteran has performed admirably. "Only one goalkeeper can play," ter Stegen told Sport, laughing, after the 'Gentleman's Day' award ceremony. He went on to say he will talk to manager Hansi Flick about a possi...

Leading Bayern is forced to make their first Bundesliga error against Leverkusen.

Bayern Munich's dismal 1-1 draw with Bayer Leverkusen resulted in their first Bundesliga loss of the year.

It was always going to be an exciting match at the Allianz Arena between the record champions and the current champions. And despite the split points, Xabi Alonso's team left the game a little happier after 90 minutes.

For ninety minutes, Bayer Leverkusen relinquished possession of their field to Bayern Munich. However, Jamal Musiala's brilliance and Harry Kane's uninteresting performance prevented the hosts from taking full advantage of it.

Granit Xhaka, Florian Wirtz, and the rest of the defense put on a masterful display, waiting to take advantage of the situation. And it came as a complete surprise when Robert Andrich's long-range drive, which was made from 21 meters out, defeated Manuel Neuer, who was diving, at 110 km/h.

But Bayern quickly leveled the score with a rocket goal of their own. With a stunning half-volley that struck the top right corner at 102 kilometers per hour from 25 meters out, Aleksandar Pavlović tied the score at one.


Throughout the second half, the hosts maintained their superiority. They had 71% of the ball and an incredible 17 shots to 2 for Leverkusen, but only three of those shots found the goal.

Serge Gnabry was amazingly denied by the post and crossbar, and Joshua Kimmich and Alphonso Davies were forced to shoot from range by the disciplined and compact visiting defense. Bayern lost their first real test and were left furious as nobody produced a late winner.

Kane was carted off the field in the closing seconds with what appeared to be an ankle injury, adding to manager Vincent Kompany's night of agony.

According to the table, Bayern leads the Bundesliga by two points and is still unbeaten after the draw, with Leverkusen in third place.

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 ...
