Barcelona Stages Thrilling Comeback to Beat Celta Vigo - Jordan News

Jordan News20-04-2025
Barcelona pulled off a dramatic 4-3 comeback win over Celta Vigo on Sunday, securing three valuable points with a stoppage-time penalty goal and extending their lead at the top of La Liga to 7 points over defending champions Real Madrid. اضافة اعلان Brazilian winger Raphinha was the hero, scoring twice — including the winning penalty in the 98th minute, confirmed by VAR. The match saw Barcelona trailing by two goals after a hat-trick from Celta's Borja Iglesias (15', 52', 62'), but goals from Ferran Torres (12'), Dani Olmo (65'), and Raphinha (68', 90+8) turned the tide. Olmo, who won the penalty late in the game, said: "This is football. We really wanted the win. Maybe we didn't start well, but the team's response and the fans' support pushed us to a well-deserved victory." Barcelona now sits on 73 points, awaiting Real Madrid's crucial match against Athletic Bilbao. The two Spanish giants will also face off in the Copa del Rey final on April 26. Premier League: Manchester City Sinks Everton Manchester City continued their dominance over Everton, defeating them 2-0 at Goodison Park — their 17th consecutive unbeaten league game against the Toffees since January 2017. Nico O'Reilly opened the scoring in the 84th minute, and substitute Mateo Kovačić sealed the win in stoppage time. City now climbs temporarily to 4th place, keeping their Champions League hopes alive. Bundesliga: Bayern Munich Crushes Heidenheim 4-0 After crashing out of the Champions League to Inter Milan, Bayern Munich bounced back with a dominant 4-0 win over Heidenheim in Bundesliga action. Goals came from Harry Kane (12'), Konrad Laimer (19'), Kingsley Coman (36'), and Joshua Kimmich (56'). Kane now leads the scoring chart with 24 goals, 7 ahead of Patrik Schick of Bayer Leverkusen. Bayern sits on 72 points, 9 points ahead of Leverkusen, who play St. Pauli later today. Ligue 1: PSG Defeats Le Havre, Remains Unbeaten Paris Saint-Germain, already crowned Ligue 1 champions, returned to league action with a 2-1 win over Le Havre, continuing their undefeated run this season. Goals from Désiré Doué (8') and Gonçalo Ramos (50') secured the win, while Issa Soumaré pulled one back for the visitors.
PSG now has 77 points, far ahead of Monaco in second. They aim to finish the season undefeated, while Le Havre, stuck on 27 points, risks relegation as they sit 16th, facing a possible playoff to stay up.

Dortmund interested in re-signing Sancho

Ammon News - Borussia Dortmund are interested in re-signing Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho for a second time. The German side are one of a number of clubs, including Juventus, that are keen on the 25-year-old. Dortmund have explored the conditions of a deal for Sancho and Sky in Germany are reporting that internal discussions are taking place about bringing him back to the club. Sancho joined United from Dortmund in 2021 for £73m and returned there on loan in the second half of the 2023/24 season. Sancho impressed in that loan spell as Dortmund reached the Champions League final. Juventus have held talks with United and the player's representatives about signing Sancho. Dialogue remains open between all the parties involved, although it is understood Juve would need to make sales to fund a deal. Napoli were looking at Sancho earlier in this window too and are expected to move on to alternative winger targets after missing out on Dan Ndoye's signing to Nottingham Forest. Jack Grealish, Raheem Sterling and Federico Chiesa are the names currently under consideration, according to Sky in Italy. Clubs in Saudi Arabia are also keeping an eye on Sancho's situation. United prefer a permanent sale, but may consider another loan – provided a permanent option or obligation was attached.

Barcelona Reveals Special El Clasico Kit for 2025-26 Season

Published July 29th, 2025 - 09:05 GMT FC Barcelona will launch a fourth kit for the 2025-26 season, featuring a distinct new design made specifically for El Clásico. This new kit will add to the club's traditional home, away, and third kits, highlighting the intensity of its rivalry with Real Madrid both on and off the field. First Look at the New Design The first images of the special edition jersey were recently shared by Footy Headlines, a trusted source, citing an Instagram post from Mask Jerseys. The design stands out with its non-uniform red and blue stripes and a touch of gradient sky blue accents. It offers a modern and artistic take on Barcelona's classic colors, challenging the usual kit styles. Early Reactions: Bold and Positive Spanish designer @OriolWarero posted a digital mock-up on X (formerly Twitter) showing Brazilian winger Raphinha in the new shirt. This image received positive feedback from fans, who admired the club's new direction and its effort to innovate for one of football's biggest matches. A Marketing Move with Global Reach Creating a kit specifically for El Clásico is not just a design choice; it's also a smart strategy. El Clásico is among the most-watched sports events in the world, and Barcelona aims to take advantage of that wide audience. The club has set record merchandise sales in recent seasons, and this limited edition jersey is expected to boost that success. © 2000 - 2025 Al Bawaba (
