FIFA Women's World Cup 2023: Germany vs Colombia | Match Report

First half:

A hard-fought first half brought plenty of drama but very few moments of magic from either side to break the deadlock. Germany forward Alexandra Popp enjoyed the best chance when a deflected shot fell to her inside the box, but she could only steer her volley over the bar. Carabali was playing like a wall for Colombo. She just didn't allow any opposition players to drive past her. Colombia were defensively solid while Germany weren't clinical enough to find the opener.

Second half:

The game brought life just after the break with a moment of brilliance from Caicedo. She just nullified two German defenders with her skill and then scored a worldie. A curling shot into the top corner of Merle Frohms' net, was just impressive to witness. Colombia pressed for a second goal but instead of the goal they received their first one back.

Schuller received a fine pass from Dabritz with her back to the goal. She dummied knowing Oberdorf was making a third-player run in behind. She collected and took the ball away from Perez, and absorbed the keeper's challenge for which she got booked. Popp couldn't spoil the chance and went through the middle to provide Germany, the equalizer. The South Americans didn't lose hope and claimed a famous win when Vanegas scored a brilliant header in the 97th minute from the corner. Colombia just nullified the German side and booked their tickets for the playoffs.

Donald Trump: 2026 World Cup an 'incentive' for Russia to end Ukraine war

Donald Trump: 2026 World Cup an 'incentive' for Russia to end Ukraine war

US President Donald Trump has made a claim that the FIFA 2026 World Cup could help end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and shut down the war. The Russian national football team has been banned from international competition by FIFA and UEFA since the country's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Trump, during his 2024 campaign, vowed to end the Russia-Ukraine war on the first day back in. But his efforts to broker a deal between the countries have so far stuttered.

Trump was unaware of the ban

Trump was questioned about the possible participation of Russia at next year's World Cup. Speaking alongside FIFA president Gianni Infantino at the meeting, Trump admitted he was unaware that Russia are banned from the 2026 World Cup.

During the meeting at the White House, a reporter asked the president for his stance on the ban, which was part of global sporting sanctions imposed on Russia following its 2022 invasion of Ukraine.

Trump said, "I didn't know that, is that right? You want to explain that?"

"That is right," replied Infantino. "They are banned for the time being from playing but we hope that something happens and peace will happen so that Russia can be readmitted."

Trump on Russia-Ukraine war

The United States are hosting the World Cup next year along with Canada and Mexico but Russia are currently banned by both FIFA and UEFA from participating in international competitions due to their invasion of Ukraine.

Trump has now said that reinstating Russia for the tournament could help end the war in Ukraine, feeling that it ‘could be a good incentive’ for Putin.

"That's possible. Hey, could be a good incentive, right?" Trump replied to Infantino.

"We want to get them to stop. We want them to stop. 5,000 people a week are being killed -- it's not even believable. We're going to get that war stopped."

Russia haven't played a competitive fixture since a 2022 World Cup qualifying defeat to Croatia in November 2021. They have played 16 friendlies since then, winning 11 of them.

Premier League: History

The Football League First Division was the top-tier football league in England from 1888. But in the post-1970s and early 1980s, the league started to reach a low point with incidents like the 1985 Heysel Stadium disaster, which banned them from UEFA Competitions for five years. 

But after England reached the 1990 FIFA World Cup semi-finals, the downward trend started to reverse. The stadium started to get filled, and the Taylor Report on stadium safety standards also helped clubs to create better standard stadiums. 

After a dispute over TV rights and maximising the club revenue, the big five clubs, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and Arsenal, opted to come out of the Football League First Division and create another league. 

At the close of the 1990-91 season, the FA Premier League was formed, and from 1992-93 the Premier League era started with 22 teams. Manchester United were the first Premier League champions and went on to win seven of the first nine trophies.

Who has won the most Premier League titles?
