Cristiano Ronaldo has won $334,637.50 from his rape accuser’s ‘dodgy’ lawyer for acting in ‘bad faith’ over the bogus sex claims. A US judge declared Kathryn Mayorga’s lawyer Leslie Stovall must personally hand over the cash to the world’s highest-paid sportsman after Ronaldo claimed he had been prejudiced by the attorney’s ‘reckless conduct’ in the long-running case. District Judge Jennifer Dorsey also threw out a bid by former model and teacher Mayorga to get the former Manchester United striker to produce his contract with his lawyer to see if he had benefited from any fee discounts. Granting the footballer’s compensation request…

Chelsea owner Todd Boehly reportedly jetted into the French capital on Tuesday to meet with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaïfi to discuss a potential deal for one of the Parisians superstars. Boehly has splashed over £600m on new arrivals at Stamford Bridge since taking over the club last year and is looking to spend heavily again in the summer, with the American interested in securing a move for PSG’s Neymar. The Brazilian is out of contract in 2027 but looks set to leave the Ligue 1 giants in the summer, six years after he joined the club for a world transfer record £200m. Chelsea’s American owner flew into…

Who would win in a fight between Earth-616 Captain Marvel and Scarlet Witch? The MCU can now finally answer that question after the events of Phase 4. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness made Scarlet Witch into a villain, which can help settle the MCU’s Captain Marvel vs. Scarlet Witch debate. Two of the most powerful characters in the Marvel universe, Wanda and Carol Danvers, never actually interacted despite fighting side by side in Avengers: Endgame. Scarlet Witch did face Earth-838 Captain Marvel Maria Rambeau in Doctor Strange 2, but a Wanda vs. Carol Danvers fight has yet to happen. Debates on who…

EARLY REVIEWS SAY QUANTUMANIA’S SCRIPT IS A BIT UNDERCOOKED, BUT JONATHAN MAJORS, COREY STOLL, AND MICHELLE PFEIFFER HELP ELEVATE THE VISUALLY STUNNING SPECTACLE IN THE FRANCHISE’S MOST SCI-FI ENTRY YET. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania carries a lot on its shoulders. Not only does the movie close out the Ant-Man trilogy, but it also marks the start of Phase Five of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and sets the stage for the next big bad of the franchise. Does it satisfy these responsibilities? According to the first reviews, there are enough worthy elements to this third outing, particularly Jonathan Majors’ performance as the villain Kang the Conqueror and its Star…

German football expert Stefan Bienkowski has spoken to football.london about Borussia Dortmund, what Chelsea can expect, and how Graham Potter can get the better of Edin Terzic. Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund go head-to-head in a competitive match for the first time on Wednesday night. This means the trip to Signal Iduna Park, a stadium well renowned for creating a ferocious and hostile atmosphere, is something of an unknown quantity for Chelsea. The Blues will know the difficulties of travelling to west Germany and picking up a result but it’s certainly not deemed impossible and Graham Potter will have confidence in his side’s ability…

Cristiano Ronaldo has been named among the stars featured on FIFA’s shortlist to make their FIFPro team of the year. The former Manchester United forward could be considered as a surprise name among the 26-man squad having endured a troubled career since the summer, when his relationship with Manchester United started to sour towards a bitter exit. Despite being the club’s top scorer last season with 24 goals, the forward started the season out of favour at Old Trafford under Erik ten Hag after demanding to leave Old Trafford following their failure to qualify for the Champions League. However, poor form led to him losing…

Emiliano Martinez has denied mocking France’s beaten World Cup final star Kylian Mbappe after Argentina’s triumph in Qatar. The PSG star scored a hat-trick and converted his penalty in the shootout, but it was not enough to see his side win successive World Cups. Martinez was ultimately one of the biggest heroes for Argentina, saving Kingsley Coman’s penalty to help secure his country’s third World Cup title. Despite the historic win, Martinez received widespread backlash for his wild celebrations – in which he called for a minute’s silence for Mbappe in the dressing room and later held aloft a baby doll with the striker’s face on…

Revisit some of Kang the Conqueror’s strangest plans before his next adventure in Jed MacKay and C.F. Villa’s ‘Avengers’ #1 this May. Since his introduction in the 1960s, Kang the Conqueror has used his advanced technology and knowledge of the future to make trouble for the Avengers and other heroes. However, as is so often the case with time travel, things can get very weird, very fast. Here are seven of Kang’s wackiest stories from over the decades. A KANG IN KING ARTHUR’S COURT While most Kang stories have focused on his attempts to conquer present day Earth, STRANGE TALES (1951) #134 illustrated his desire to…

Chelsea boss Graham Potter hits back at ‘angry’ Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp comparisons. Graham Potter has hit back at those who accused him of not being angry enough as Chelsea were not awarded a penalty against West Ham in the Premier League. Conor Gallagher’s shot was blocked by the hand of Tomas Soucek but not deemed to be worthy of handball call by referee Craig Pawson and VAR. Potter commented that Soucek had made a ‘good save’ following the game but was deemed not to have been critical or angry enough about the decision during his media duties by Rio Ferdinand. The…

Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe have all been named on FIFA’s FIFPro Men’s Team of the Year 26-player shortlist for 2022. Ronaldo’s inclusion was arguably the major surprise after a difficult back half to the year where he was dropped by both Manchester United and Portugal, ultimately parting ways with the Red Devils in November. The Portuguese star has made the Team of the Year, along with Messi, every year since 2007, but will face stiff competition among the forwards alongside Erling Haaland, Mbappe, Neymar, Robert Lewandowski and reigning Ballon d’Or winner Karim Benzema. Last year, four forwards…

Still barely able to conceal his anger on Tuesday, Mikel Arteta claimed Arsenal will have to find last weekend’s two lost points — locked away in Stockley Park’s bulging drawer of gaffes — ‘somewhere else’. Tonight would be advisable. Beating Manchester City would widen the gap back up to six points in a title race which should become more captivating with each passing month. Arteta will use VAR official Lee Mason’s failure to draw offside lines when assessing Brentford’s equalising goal on Saturday as motivation for his players. Guardiola cited referees and the home fans as potential problems for City…

Even in the hush of a warm Spring morning, there is the intoxicating sense of soul about Old Trafford. The old Munich clock on the corrugated red metal of the South-east corner. The red rose slotted into the hand that Bobby Charlton slings over Denis Law’s shoulder on the bronze United Trinity statue. To walk the place and its surrounding terraced streets is to feel the identity of a club which has persevered and won through, despite everything. Sir Alex Ferguson’s own story also fitted that narrative in the late 1980s, before the glories came. Ask Manchester United’s supporters what single…

Chelsea transfer news: The Blues will need to make some player sales this summer following an enormous spending spree in recent months. Chelsea are set for a busy summer of outgoings as they look to trim the squad following several signings in the last two transfer windows. The Blues have brought in 16 new players in the last six months for a total spend of more than £500million, with Christopher Nkunku of Red Bull Leipzig also expected to add to that number ahead of next season. Chelsea have not brought in a great deal from player sales in that time either and…

Jordi Alba admits “everything was easier” when Lionel Messi was at Barcelona, with the pair forging a destructive, if somewhat unlikely partnership. WHAT HAPPENED? While Alba is a left-back, and Messi spent much of his time at Camp Nou operating from the right of an attacking trio, two products of the famed La Masia academy system combined for 34 goals across nine memorable years. Messi’s departure for Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent in 2021 brought a productive relationship in Catalunya to a close, with Alba conceding that the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner remains a big miss for La Liga heavyweights. WHAT THEY SAID: Spain international…

Rio Ferdinand believes that Marcus Rashford can become even more ‘horrible’ to play against, while he sometimes makes it too ‘easy for defenders’. The Manchester United forward is in electric form, netting 13 times in 15 games since the World Cup. The 25-year-old added to his fine goalscoring tally with a wonderful late header against one of Ferdinand’s former sides Leeds to send United on their way to a 2-0 victory at Elland Road on Sunday. Despite Rashford being in the form of his life under Erik ten Hag after having coming through a tough period in his career, Ferdinand believes there could be even more to…

Arsene Wenger has urged his former club Arsenal to keep pushing in their pursuit of the Premier League title, insisting they will not get a better opportunity in future seasons. The Gunners, who sit three points ahead of Manchester City at the summit of the table, have not been crowned champions since Wenger’s star-studded ‘Invincibles’ went undefeated in 2003-04. But two negative results on the spin – a 1-0 loss to Everton at Goodison Park and 1-1 draw with Brentford last weekend – has cast fresh doubt over whether Arsenal will lift the elusive trophy in May. Mikel Arteta’s side host the reigning champions at the Emirates on…
