The post England vs Spain: The Outstanding Lionesses Fall Short in a Thrilling World Cup Final appeared first on All Around Insider.
]]>What’s the story about England vs Spain?
England vs Spain was the final match of the FIFA Women’s World Cup 2023. The teams played on Sunday, August 20, 2023, at 20:00 ACT (11:00 BST) at Stadium Australia in Sydney.
Spain won the match, defeating England 1-0. Olga Carmona scored the only goal of the game in the 29th minute.
The starting lineup for England (the Lionesses), led by their manager Sarina Wiegman, was:
- Goalkeeper: Mary Earps
- Defenders: Jess Carter, Millie Bright, Alex Greenwood
- Midfielders: Keira Walsh, Georgia Stanway, Lucy Bronze, Rachel Daly
- Central Attacking Midfielder: Ella Toone
- Forwards: Lauren Hemp, Alessia Russo
Head coach Jorge Vilda led the Spanish team. The starting lineup for Spain was:
- Goalkeeper: Cata Coll
- Defenders: Ona Batlle, Irene Paredes, Laia Codina, Olga Carmona
- Midfielders: Aitana Bonmatí, Teresa Abelleira, Jennifer Hermoso
- Forwards: Mariona Caldentey, Alba Redondo, Salma Celeste Paralluelo Ayingono
The final was a close and tense match, with both teams creating chances. England had the better of the first half despite the out-standing goal scored by Carmona that would turn out to be the winner. But Spain came out stronger in the second half and won even after having a penalty sensationally saved by England goalkeeper Earps.
The victory is Spain’s first ever FIFA Women’s World Cup title. They are the ninth team to win the tournament, and they take over from the 2015 and 2019 Champions, the United States.
The win is also a major boost for women’s football in Spain. The Spanish league is one of the strongest in the world, and the national team is now one of the favourites to win future tournaments.
Spain’s victory is a disappointment for England, who were hoping to win the country’s first World Cup title since 1966. However, the lionesses can be proud of their performance in the tournament, and we will be hoping to see them go one step further in the next World Cup.

The Man City vs Sevilla match took place on Wednesday August 16, 2023, for the UEFA Super Cup. Manchester City won the match 5-4 on penalties after the teams tied 1-1. This is Man City’s first UEFA Super Cup title.
We always look forward to the UEFA Super Cup as it is between two of the best teams in Europe. Man City are the defending Champions League, and Premier League and FA Cup, champions, while Sevilla are the defending Europa League champions. The teams played the match in Piraeus, Greece, which is a popular tourist destination.
In addition, young English player Cole Palmer was a standout star. Palmer, who is only 21 years old, scored the equalising goal for Man City in the 63rd minute. We thought that Palmer’s performance was brilliant and are expecting that he will be a regular starter for Man City this season.

]]>What’s the story about Man City?
Man City win opening Premier League match 3-0 against Burnley, with Erling Haaland scoring twice
Man City won their opening Premier League match of the season against Burnley 3-0 on Friday 11 August 2023. See the highlights below. This was their first match since losing to Arsenal in the FA Community Shield the weekend prior (Sunday 6 August 2023). Man City won the Premier League title for the third time in a row last season, and their match against Burnley was a convincing victory against a newly promoted side. Erling Haaland scored twice in the match, and he is quickly becoming our favourite at City.
Man City facing points deduction over alleged financial fair play breaches
Second, Man City are facing a potential points deduction from the Premier League due to alleged breaches of financial fair play rules. This comes off the back of a four-year investigation by the Premier League. The Premier League has charged City with breaking the rules around 100 times over a nine-year period from 2009-2018. During this time City won the FA Cup once (2011), the FA Community Shield twice (2012 and 2018), the Football League Cup three times (2014, 2016 and 2018) and the Premier League three times (2012, 2014 and 2018). If the Independent Commission (IC) find City guilty, they IC could deduct a substantial number of points from City, which could have a major impact on their title hopes.
Man City linked with Lucas Paqueta and Jeremy Doku
Finally, Man City are pursuing high-profile transfer targets, including Lucas Paqueta and Jeremy Doku. These transfers would be expensive, at an expected £80m and £45m respectively, but they would help City to strengthen their squad and challenge for more trophies in the coming seasons.
Why should I care about this story?
Whether or not you’re a fan of Man City, the club is a major force in English football, and their success or failure is important.
Man City is a major club in the UK, and one of the most successful teams in the league
The club has won the Premier League title five times in the last six seasons (2018, 2019, 2021, 2022 and 2023). They are always one of the favourites to win the Champions League and are the current reigning champions having won it in 2023.
The news that Man City are facing a potential points deduction is therefore significant.
If the Independent Commission (IC) find City guilty of breaking financial fair play rules, the IC could deduct a substantial number of points from City, which could have a major impact on their title hopes. This would be a blow to City fans, and it would also be a disappointment to those of us who enjoy watching the Premier League and the Champions League.
We are concerned about the fairness of competition in the Premier League and believe that Man City’s alleged financial fair play breaches, if true, give them an unfair advantage. We are worried about the impact that a points deduction could have on the Premier League as a whole.
The news that Man City have high-profile transfer targets is also interesting.
The club have a significant amount of money to spend, and they are always looking to improve their squad. If City are able to sign some of the top players in the world, it will make them even more likely to win trophies in the coming seasons. This is something that we will be watching closely. We are, however, worried about the impact that expensive transfers could have on the Premier League as a whole – are Man City the new Galacticos of English football?

]]>The post Onana Escapes Penalty in the Man Utd vs Wolves Match After Controversial Foul: Could VAR Be Better? appeared first on All Around Insider.
]]>What’s the story about Man United vs Wolves?
The Man United vs Wolves match that took place yesterday, 14 August 2023, was controversial. Manchester United won the match 1-0, however there were missed opportunities for Wolves and a potential penalty that was not given.
The goalkeeper for Man United, Andre Onana, was at the centre of the controversy. During stoppage time, he appeared to foul Wolves player Sasa Kalajdzic in the penalty area. However, the referee, Simon Hooper, and the VAR both decided that it was not a foul (they have since been dropped from this weekend’s upcoming Premier League fixtures).
Gary O’Neil, a former West Ham player, was critical of the decision. He said afterwards that “It looked like the keeper almost took our strikers head off. It looks the same now. I think it is a foul.” and ” I’ve spoken to Jon Moss and fair play to him, he apologised, said it was a blatant penalty and that it should have been given”. Jon Moss is the Select Group 1 Manager at the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL).
The controversy overshadowed Mason Mount’s disastrous Premier League debut, having transferred in from Chelsea for £60millon in July 2023. He was eventually replaced by Christian Eriksen 68 minutes into the game.
The VAR controversy has led to calls for it to be scrapped or reformed. What are your thoughts? Is the system too inconsistent and making the game more difficult to referee? Or is VAR necessary to make sure that the big decisions are right? Let us know in the comments section below.
Regardless of your opinion on VAR, there is no doubt that the Man United vs Wolves match was a controversial one. What are your thoughts? Was the decision not to give the penalty to Wolves the right one?
Why should I care about this story?
The match was a Premier League match, which is the highest level of football in the UK.
The Man United vs Wolves match is important because it raises questions about the use of VAR in football.
The match was controversial, because of the decision not to give Wolves a penalty. VAR is a relatively new technology that is still being tested and refined. The decision not to give the penalty to Wolves has highlighted potential flaws in the system.
We care about this issue because it could have a big impact on the way football is played in the future.
The controversy has led to calls for VAR to be scrapped or reformed. If VAR is not used correctly, it could lead to unfair results and a loss of faith in the game.
It is also important to note that the Man United vs Wolves match was not the only one that resulted in controversy over VAR this weekend.
There were also other matches in the Premier League where decisions were made that were met with criticism such as the Liverpool vs Chelsea match.
This suggests that VAR is a problem that needs to be addressed. The authorities need to find a way to make the system more consistent and dependable. Otherwise, it will continue to be a source of controversy and distrust.
