The Premier League's Wild Wednesday
In a dramatic turn of events, Erling Haaland, the Manchester City striker, reached a remarkable milestone, scoring his 100th Premier League goal. However, the real story unfolded at Fulham, where City almost let a four-goal lead slip away!
But here's where it gets controversial... Pep Guardiola, the City manager, was left baffled by his team's collapse. Despite Haaland's heroics, goals from Alex Iwobi and Samuel Chukwueze brought Fulham back into the game, leaving City fans on the edge of their seats. Guardiola's post-match comments reflect the madness: "It's just a question of survival. I don't have an answer."
Meanwhile, Tottenham and Everton also had their moments. Cristian Romero, the Tottenham skipper, produced a moment of magic with an overhead kick to salvage a point against Newcastle. And over at Bournemouth, Jack Grealish's strike ensured Everton's return to winning ways.
England's Women: Champions of 2025
England's women's team ended a memorable year on a high, beating Ghana 2-0 at St Mary's. This victory capped off a remarkable 2025, which saw them lift the Women's Euro trophy.
Sarina Wiegman, the England manager, praised Lucia Kendall, who marked her second international start with a goal. Wiegman described it as a "special moment" for Kendall, who celebrated as if she had won the Champions League.
And this is the part most people miss...
Off the pitch, there was a heart-stopping moment as television presenter Laura Woods collapsed live on air during ITV's coverage of the England-Ghana match. Woods later assured fans she was okay, attributing the incident to a virus.
