Bernardo Silva reveals how Arsenal is being handed title advantage
Bernardo Silva claims refereeing inconsistency has handed Arsenal a title advantage after Manchester City’s frustrating 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest increased the gap at the top to seven points. Manchester City captain Bernardo Silva has voiced frustration over officiating following a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest that left his side seven points adrift of Premier League leaders Arsenal. Silva criticized the decision to deny Erling Haaland a penalty after a collision with goalkeeper Matz Sels. He stated, “I just think that all the 50-50s this season have gone against us – all of them.” Despite leading twice through Antoine Semenyo and Rodri, City conceded late to Elliot Anderson, further complicating their title defense. Silva admitted City’s own errors contributed to the gap, acknowledging, “It’s on us that we didn’t win.” Meanwhile, Forest manager Vitor Pereira urged his squad to remain focused on the present as they battle to stay outside the relegation zone on goal difference. -
Cristiano Ronaldo suffers hamstring injury, expected to return before 2026 FIFA World Cup
Cristiano Ronaldo is expected to return to action within a month after sustaining a hamstring injury, keeping his hopes of participating in the 2026 FIFA World Cup fully intact.
Al Nassr star Cristiano Ronaldo has been diagnosed with a hamstring tendon injury following a 3-1 victory over Al Fayha.
The club confirmed on Tuesday that the veteran forward has commenced a rehabilitation program.
Fortunately, the injury is not considered long-term, with reports suggesting a recovery period of two to four weeks, ensuring his availability for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup in June.
The 41-year-old was substituted late on Saturday after appearing to be in significant pain.
While he is expected to miss Portugal’s friendlies against Mexico and the USA, his return to club action remains the priority.
Off the pitch, Ronaldo recently expanded his business portfolio by purchasing a stake in Spanish side UD Almería, stating, “It has been a long-time ambition of mine to contribute to football, beyond the pitch.”

Jacob Ramsey red card verdict as Newcastle and Premier League told Man Utd mistake made
Football pundits and manager Eddie Howe have condemned the “harsh” second yellow card given to Jacob Ramsey for simulation during Newcastle United’s dramatic 2-1 victory against Manchester United.
Premier League referee Peter Bankes is facing intense criticism following his decision to send off Jacob Ramsey during Newcastle’s 2-1 win over Manchester United.
Ramsey received a second yellow card for simulation, despite replays suggesting he merely lost his balance.
On Match of the Day 2, Micah Richards argued, “He just loses balance, it’s as simple as that. It’s not a second yellow card.”
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe joined the chorus of disapproval, labeling the dismissal “really harsh” and insisting the midfielder was not seeking a foul.
Howe remarked, “I don’t think he’s looking for a penalty there.”
Despite the disadvantage, the Magpies triumphed through William Osula’s late winner, with Howe praising the squad’s resilience in what he described as an “amazing night” at St James’ Park.

Senne Lammens slams Man Utd’s ‘every aspect’ after Newcastle defeat, Rio Ferdinand agrees
Manchester United’s unbeaten run under Michael Carrick ended with a 2-1 loss to Newcastle after a late William Osula goal triggered internal criticism from Senne Lammens and Rio Ferdinand.
Michael Carrick’s undefeated streak as Manchester United interim manager collapsed at St James’ Park following a 2-1 defeat to Newcastle.
Despite the hosts losing Jacob Ramsey to a red card, Anthony Gordon converted a penalty before Casemiro equalized.
However, a 90th-minute William Osula “howitzer” secured the win for the Magpies, leaving Carrick to defend his team’s character during a tense post-match interview.
Goalkeeper Senne Lammens delivered a scathing review of the performance, contradicting his manager’s more measured stance.
Lammens stated, “I think our mentality needs to be better. In every aspect it was not our game today.”
Club legend Rio Ferdinand echoed this frustration on social media, noting that “Newcastle deserves that… We’ve not been at the races!” as United failed to capitalize on their man advantage.

Man United’s Jack Fletcher apologises for anti-gay slur after FA sanction
Manchester United’s Jack Fletcher has received a six-game ban from the FA for using an anti-gay slur during a match against Barnsley. Fletcher has apologized, stating he did not intend the term as a homophobic insult, and will undergo further training on inclusive language. The club and United’s LGBTQ+ supporters’ group have welcomed the apology.
1. Match Summary
Newcastle secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Manchester United in a match filled with drama and cards. The game saw a penalty awarded to Newcastle, converted by Anthony Gordon, and a goal from Manchester United's Casemiro. A late goal in the 90th minute from Will Osula sealed the win for Newcastle. A significant moment was the red card shown to Jacob Ramsey in the 45th minute, leaving Newcastle to play a large portion of the game with ten men.
2. Team Performance Analysis
Newcastle: Despite playing with ten men for almost the entire second half, Newcastle demonstrated resilience and tactical discipline. Their expected goals (xG) of 2.22 suggests they created the more dangerous chances, and they ultimately converted on those opportunities. They were slightly less dominant in possession (45% vs United's 55%) but were more clinical in their attacking play. The high number of fouls (15) and yellow cards (4, including a red) indicates a combative performance, potentially stemming from defending with a man down. Their passing accuracy of 77% was respectable.
Manchester United: Manchester United controlled possession (55%) and completed more passes (460 vs Newcastle's 375) with a higher accuracy (82%). However, they struggled to convert their possession into clear-cut chances, as evidenced by their lower xG (1.28). They also committed a high number of fouls (16) and were unable to capitalize on Newcastle's numerical disadvantage for a sustained period. Their blocked shots (5) suggest Newcastle's defense, even with a man down, was effective in disrupting their attacks.
