The 25-year-old responded aggressively when questioned by a reporter regarding Gary Medel’s controversial red card in the latter stages of Saturday's clash in Andalucia Cesc Fabregas has insisted that he did not exaggerate his reaction to Gary Medel's alleged head-butt in the latter stages of Barcelona's match with Sevilla. The Chilean was adjudged to have knocked down the former Arsenal midfielder, changing the dynamic of the game as the Blaugrana capitalised on their numerical advantage by coming back from two goals down to win 3-2 in dramatic fashion. When a journalist quizzed him about the red-card incident, Fabregas said after the match: “If you want, I’ll do to you what Medel did and you can tell me. "I have been hit in the face and therefore it’s a straight red card. I saw a penalty in the first half that was not given and the game balanced itself out. "There’s contact because he gets my face and in the world of football it’s ...

The encounter will now be played at a later date, as a result of the wires to the stadium's lighting system being damaged Sunday's Liga clash between Rayo Vallecano and Real Madrid has been postponed until further notice after wires serving the stadium's lighting were cut prior to the game. The match was due to kick off at 20:00 CET, but the unexpected turn of events means that the pair will now go head to head at a later, unspecified date, with a 17:00 CET kick-off on Monday suggested by Cristina Cifuentes, a delegate of the Government of Madrid. "Right now the boards of the two teams are making the decision on whether the match will take place on Monday or later," she explained. "Unfortunately we have to suspend the game. We are reviewing the options, the problem is not guaranteed to be fixed tomorrow because the damage is greater than we expected.  "The game could be played at 17:00 CET.

The former Arsenal captain has admitted that he is going through a difficult spell, but he says that it's not for the first time, and he remains confident and happy at Camp Nou Barcelona midfielder Cesc Fabregas has quashed speculation that he is unhappy despite conceding that he has been going through a tough time. The Spain international moved to the Catalan giants at the beginning of last season and though he started brightly, his form eventually suffered. However, he remains confident that he will get back to his best. "I've been playing in the top flight for nine years now and it isn't the first or second time that I've had a spell like this. I'm playing with a smile on my face and I still believe in my abilities," he was quoted by Marca.  Recently, Fabregas has been afforded more playing time under new boss Tito Vilanova, which has buoyed his spirits though he re-emphasised that it is the team that is the number one priority. "I...

The two-time European Cup winner likened the Blues' rise to prominence to that of his former club Chelsea under Roman Abramovich, while also dismissing talk of pressure at Bernabeu Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho has predicted Manchester City will win the Champions League in the near future if they continue developing at their current rate. The two-time European Cup winner Mourinho will guide his side against the Premier League champions in their opening Champions League match on Tuesday evening and the Portuguese has likened City’s investment-fuelled progression to that of his former club Chelsea’s after Russian billionaire Roman Abramovic took control of the west London outfit.  Mourinho told reporters: "I don't think it is very different to Chelsea. “Since Roman bought the club, [Claudio] Ranieri was the first coach, then I came and we won the first league, some cups and some more titles.

The 62-year-old also believes that members from his "well-educated" squad suit the playing style of the Spanish club Arsene Wenger  believes it is a compliment that  Barcelona  see  Arsenal  players as transfer targets. For the past two summer transfer windows, Barcelona have signed two Arsenal midfielders in Alex Song, who arrived last month, and Cesc Fabregas, who made his move to the Camp Nou in August 2011. Wenger claims the interest in his players from Barcelona means his squad are well-educated and that his members from his squad can adapt quickly to the Spanish club's playing style. "That Barcelona come look and buy our players can be seen as a compliment for us," Wenger told  Bein Sport . "Because it proves that our players are well-educated and also that our players are those that are most relevant to their style of game." Wenger has also claimed he is in no hurry to sign a new contract with Arsenal with two years remaining on h...

The Roja's No. 1 expressed a certain confidence about the world champions' chances of defending their title in Brazil but concedes he finds it strange that they have to qualify Spain's  goalkeeper  Iker Casillas  has raised concern over the possibillity of his side not featuring in World Cup 2014.  As it stands, current rules now mean the reigning world champions have to go through qualification which previously was not the case. This could mean if Spain fail to qualify from Group I, then, they will miss out on Brazil something which Casillas admits is peculiar. "Obviously it is strange and unusual that the world champions do not have an automatic ticket for Brazil," he told  AS . "It could happen that we do not reach the World Cup and it would be strange if the champions were not there to defend their title, but we are just thinking about what we are doing." The affectionately named  San Iker  then turned his attention to their upc...

The forward tucked away a penalty in his first game for his country since returning from a broken leg, but it was his Barcelona team-mate Pedro who stole the show with two goals Spain  warmed up for their opening 2014 World Cup qualifier with a predictably facile 5-0 friendly win over  Saudi Arabia  on Friday night. Santi Cazorla opened the scoring and Pedro doubled the home side's advantage soon after. Substitute Xavi netted a third two minutes into the second half before Barcelona team-mate David Villa announced his return to the international arena by converting a penalty shortly after entering the fray. Pedro then put the seal on an impressive individual display when he tucked away a terrific through-ball from David Silva with 17 minutes remaining. The reigning world and two-time European champions, who take their first step on the road to Rio against Georgia next week, fielded an experimental starting lineup, with Xavi and Andres Iniesta among those na...

The Portuguese winger has refuted claims that his refusal to celebrate the 149th and 150th goals of his Blancos career was motivated by a financial dispute with the club Real Madrid  attacker  Cristiano Ronaldo  has dismissed the notion that his post-match declaration of "sadness" on Sunday evening was related to a desire for a new and improved contract at the club. The 27-year-old scored a double as  Los Blancos  beat Granada 3-0, but Ronaldo's refusal to celebrate his 149th and 150th goals for the club stole the headlines.  In a statement on his personal Twitter account the 27-year-old added further mystery as to the source of his apparent dismay in the Spanish capital, while insisting he would continue to give his all for Madrid. " That I am feeling sad and have expressed this sadness has created a huge stir. I am accused of wanting more money, but one day it will be shown that this is not the case ," he stated on the social networking sit...

The Ghanaian has hailed his former boss at Stamford Bridge, and placed himself at the disposal of his new team as they aim to win yet more trophies Michael Essien  has credited his season long loan move from  Chelsea  to Real Madrid to his special relationship with  Jose Mourinho . The pair originally worked together in London when the Portuguese trainer brought Essien to Stamford Bridge from Lyon in 2005 and the midfielder is now relishing the opportunity to work under his former mentor again. "Everything happened so fast," reflected the 29-year-old at a press conference. "Mourinho called me and said he was ready to take me. I said yes immediately." "That was more than enough for me to come here. I see him as a father because he was the one responsible for my move to Chelsea. We have a very good relationship, with a clear understanding of each other." Essien has enjoyed several injury-laden campaigns at Stamford Bridge in recent years, stru...
