      Stay up to date with all the action from the Nashville Municipal Auditorium…
      Survivor tag?
      Right then, what is this main event we have?
      Misfits have tried their best to explain it and I’ll try and break it down (… before ultimately sending you to the Misfits website for more info).
      The main thing to note is it’s not a tag team match, it’s every man for himself, so ignore the name.
      Two fighters are in the ring at any one time with the first two fighters decided by a social media fan vote.
      Fighters can tag in and out of the match and refusal to accept a tag will result in elimination.
      A knockdown is also an immediate elimiation.
      The winner is the last man standing after four rounds, unless there’s more than one left standing in which case it goes to points.
      Is that as clear as mud? Here’s how Misfits explain it:
      Full card
      Here’s the full fight card for tonight with the survivor tag top of the bill.

      NichLmao v Swarmz v BDave v Ryan Johnston
      Anthony Taylor v Paul Bamba
      Alan Belcher v Hasim Rahman Jr
      Deen The Great and Ree Mo vs OJ Rose and Kimbo Slice Junior
      Brandon Herrera v Ac7ionMan
      Unbaer v Corn
      Alex Stein v Mo Deen
      The Magic Crasher v Jack Grady

      How to watch
      DAZN’s broadcast of the main card begins at 8pm ET (1am UK) with the countdown show getting underway at 7pm (midnight).
      The Misfits 008 card is not on pay-per-view and available on a regular DAZN subscription – which costs $19.99 a month on a 12-month plan, or $24.99 a month on a flexible plan.
      In the UK, it’s £9.99 a month on a 12-month plan or £19.99 a month for the flexible option.
      Fight night
      Goooood evening fight fans. Welcome along to our live coverage from the latest Misfits boxing event.
      The influencer boxing roadshow rolls into Nashville, Tennessee tonight with something that nobody has ever head of.
      Tonight’s main event will be a survivor tag clash between four men – something I’m sure will take a bit of working out on the go.
      The way I can best describe it like an Elimination Chamber in WWE but with four fighters and no actual chambers… more on that later.
      Also on the bill is Anthony Taylor – fresh from a shock win over Salt Papi last time out.
      And there are some star names too with Kimbo Slice Jr and Hasim Rahman Jr in action.
      Nobody ever knows quite what to expect on these influencer boxing night. Tonight definitely fits into that category.
      Stay right there and I’ll try and break it all down for you.

      Some people are heading for the exits.
      They clearly have no idea.
      Inter Miami 1 Cruz Azul 1
      88. Messi has been pretty special since coming on.
      Every time he gets the ball, you feel something is going to happen.
      The crowd will go home happy without a doubt.
      Inter Miami 1 Cruz Azul 1
      87. Lovely ball by Robert Taylor, finds Messi and he squares for Martinez who rolls in. But the offside flag is up.

      85. Great link up, once again, between the two former Barcelona stars – Messi and Busquets.

      He just tried to win a penalty – Busquets lifted the ball into the box and Messi went down all too predictably.

      Inter Miami 1 Cruz Azul 1
      78. Great early signs for boss Tata Martino in what’s only his second game in charge.
      Obviously it helps to have two absolute world-class talents at your disposal but their introduction has naturally given the whole team a life.
      I wonder what Kim Kardashian thinks of Busquets’ range of passing.
      Inter Miami 1 Cruz Azul 1
      77. Lovely reverse pass by Messi sets Martinez free, but he can’t squeeze the ball in from a very tight angle.

      Busquets’ passing ability is already on show.
      The Spanish star should be a fantastic asset in MLS.
      Inter Miami 1 Cruz Azul 1
      71. Messi had his first chance but his shot was blocked.
      He set up his left foot but the Cruz Azul defense was a step ahead.
      Tie game with 20 minutes left.
      Inter Miami 1 Cruz Azul 1
      69. Messi takes the corner – and almost scores!
      A very knowledgeable Argentine journalist reliably informs me it’s the one type of goal the little man has never scored.
      Came pretty close just now.

      And they are all welcoming Messi to US shores.
      Messi’s moment
      In Spanish, Lionel Messi delivers his message to his adoring supporters.

      Beckham on stage

      And there it is. Announced by Mas.
      Messi takes to the rain-soaked cat walk, avoiding injury thanks to his nimble balance and managing to stay on his feet.
      The crowd are loving this.
      Mas takes centre stage
      Never short of a sound bite or opinion, Jorge Mas dishes his two pence.

      Chapter and verse
      “The next chapter of our story starts now,” Beckham proudly declares.

      David Beckham can’t hide his feelings on the Messi capture.
      “Forgive me for feeling a bit emotional tonight,” he tells the crowd.
      Is that a tear drop streaming down his face?
      No, it’s probably rain.
      Careful now!
      Beckham and Mas take to the stage.
      It is still raining, and it’s a hazardous runway they have to negotiate.
      Oops! Mas nearly slips!
      Beckham begins… in Spanish. “Bueno,” he starts.
      Licence to thrill
      One of the presenters on stage is urging fans to buy an Inter Miami licence plate.
      But they only have one thing to say… or sing.
      “Messi, Messi, Messi.’
      They are waiting (patiently) for their talisman.
      It’s getting heavier
      Now we’re being treated to a wall of sound in the shape of techno.
      Is this Inter Miami’s stadium or a South Beach hotspot, one asks?
      We’ll soon find out!
      When’s the unveiling!
      Kick in the pyrotechnics
      It’s wild now at the DRV PNK.
      Fireworks are going off and it’s a party atmosphere.
      The fans are, unsurprisingly, lapping it up says The US Sun reporter Steve Brenner in the field.
      It. Is. Going. Off.
      Here we go!
      Lights down, light show incoming.
      Messi’s image is flashed on the big screens around the stadium.
      Fans gasp.
      Becks fulfilling his TV duties
      With Apple TV being host broadcasters, David Beckham is doing an interview with them pitchside.
      Skirting across the sodden turf, he’s there suited and booted.
      Careful of those shoes, Becks.
      The commissioner is giving interviews
      Don Garber is doing some press.
      It’s a big day for the MLS Commissioner, welcoming an all-time great to US soccer fans.

      A clue to the entertainment
      Marc Anthony has also arrived at the DRV PNK Stadium.
      The singer was famous for his marriage to Jennifer Lopez.
      Will he be performing tonight?

      Busquets is here
      Inter Miami new boy Sergio Busquets has also shown up.
      Will it be a double unveiling?

      He’s here!
      Lionel Messi has arrived on site.

      Lionel Messi unveiling LIVE – Inter Miami fans await arrival of MLS’ biggest star as David Beckham calls it a ‘dream’

      by

      LIONEL MESSI is set to be unveiled as an Inter Miami player today, with the Argentina superstar becoming the biggest star in MLS history.David Beckham has bent over backward to sign the former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain icon, who won the World Cup with Argentina just eight months ago.
      Inter Miami announced the arrival of Messi on Saturday and he will meet the fans at the DRV PNK Stadium alongside ex-Barca boss Gerardo Martino.

      Stay up to date with all the latest from Lionel Messi’s unveiling…
      ‘OVERJOYED’
      Lionel Messi will be available to play for Inter Miami against LIGA MX side Cruz Azul on 21 July in their opening match of Leagues Cup.
      And it is not only him and David Beckham that cannot wait to see him in action.
      MLS commissioner Don Garber said: “We are overjoyed that the greatest player in the world chose Inter Miami and Major League Soccer, and his decision is a testament to the momentum and energy behind our league and our sport in North America.
      “We have no doubt that Lionel will show the world that MLS can be a league of choice for the best players in the game.
      “We look forward to seeing his debut for Inter Miami in our Leagues Cup tournament later this month.”

      ‘COULDN’T BE PROUDER’
      INTER owner David Beckham has also been speaking about pulling off the huge coup.
      The England and Man Utd legend said: “10 years ago, when I started my journey to build a new team in Miami, I said that I dreamed of bringing the greatest players in the world to this amazing city.
      “[I wanted] players who shared the ambition I had when I joined LA Galaxy, to help grow football in the USA and to build a legacy for the next generation in this sport that we love so much.
      “Today that dream came true. I couldn’t be prouder that a player of Leo’s calibre is joining our club, but I am also delighted to welcome a good friend, an amazing person and his beautiful family to join our Inter Miami community.
      “The next phase of our adventure starts here, and I can’t wait to see Leo take to the pitch.”
      ‘VERY EXCITED’
      Lionel Messi struggled to contain his emotions after officially joining MLS side Inter Miami on a deal that runs until the end of 2025.
      The seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, 36, left French champions Paris St-Germain last month.
      And ahead of his official unveiling later, he said: “I’m very excited to start this next step in my career with Inter Miami and in the United States.
      “This is a fantastic opportunity and together we will continue to build this beautiful project.
      “The idea is to work together to achieve the objectives we set and I’m very eager to start helping here in my new home.”
      Messi brings his wife and kids to Miami
      The world’s biggest football star has brought his wife Antonella to Florida, along with their three sons.
      She has known the Barcelona star since she was five years old as her cousin, Lucas Scaglia, was a childhood friend of his.
      If Messi has a reputation of being shy, this was certainly not the case in his pursuit of Antonela, as he regularly visited her home from a young age, just to see her.
      It is not known how long the pair have been together behind closed doors, but they went public with their relationship in 2008.
      The bond between the couple was believed to have strengthened in 2007, when Messi flew back to Rosario to comfort Antonela after the death of her friend.
      The pair have been inseparable ever since and celebrated on the pitch together with the three boys after the World Cup final in Qatar.

      ‘The dream becomes a reality’
      David Beckham has finally got his man – and has been delighted to share it.
      The Manchester United and Real Madrid legend has posted a picture alongside the ex-Barcelona man.
      And Becks’ grin could hardly be wider.

      Last night’s Messi announcement
      Inter Miami put together a slick ‘welcome to Miami’ video to announce Messi as their new player.
      In the video a graffiti artist sprays his name in the Inter Miami font on a screen, before cutting to Messi with the city’s skyline behind him.

      When is Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami debut?
      Needless to say, he will NOT be making his US debut in in the MLS All Stars clash against Arsenal.
      Instead, Messi will play for Inter Miami in their Leagues Cup clash against Mexican side Cruz Azul.
      That takes place at the DRV PNK Stadium on July 22 at 1am UK / 8pm ET.
      Mega contract – how much Messi is earning at Inter Miami
      Lionel Messi’s new deal is worth $150million or £115m.
      That equates to $60m a year and $1.1m a WEEK.
      He gets his regular salary, a signing-on bonus and a share in the club.
      Revenue-sharing agreements with Adidas and Apple have been negotiated as part of Messi’s Miami salary.
      There really has never been anything like it in MLS history.
      Blink and you’ll Mess it
      Hello and welcome to SunSport’s coverage of Lionel Messi’s unveiling from the DRV PNK Stadium in Miami.The MLS – and more importantly Inter Miami – have finally got their man.
      David Beckham and the team have been trying relentlessly to get some top talent from Europe to the MLS, just as he did in 2007 when he moved to LA Galaxy.
      And now, Messi joins the likes of Beckham, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Wayne Rooney and Andrea Pirlo to make the move Stateside.
      After playing for some of the most historic clubs in Europe, Messi has arrived at one of the MLS’ newest clubs.
      Inter Miami only played their first match in 2018, but in that time they have been trying to woo the Argentina ace.
      The timings have finally aligned, Messi arrives as a world champion and content that he has won every trophy that matters in the club and international game.
      He is ready to be the latest name to add legitimacy and quality to the MLS’ growing reputation to go with its impressive crowds.

      by

      KINGPYN BOXING’S semi-finals concluded in stunning fashion in Dublin – with AnEsonGib and King Kenny booking their final spots.Gib boxed superbly to beat Jarvis after five action-packed rounds.
      While King Kenny also boxed brilliantly in his semi-final against Whindersson, winning on points and dropping the Brazilian en route to his win.
      Though the night did not go to plan for Elle Brooke or Aaron Chalmers, with BOTH suffering big losses.
      Casino special – best no deposit bonus offers
      Follow ALL of the latest from Dublin below…
      Kenny says
      “We put in so much hard work. But I want to thank God for helping through me camp physically and mentally. Thank you to Whindersson for giving me this opportunity and thank you to Brazil for coming out tonight, you’ve got amazing energy.
      “I had my jab so easy and clean from round one. I was able to work everything off that. It wasn’t easy, he kept coming forward like the Terminator and was eating my punches.”
      Breaking news
      AnEson Gib will fight King Kenny in the Kingpyn High Stakes men’s tournament final.
      That bout will likely take place later this year.
      Kenny completely dominated Whindersson in the main event of tonight’s card in Dublin.
      Kenny wins!
      Was there ever any doubt?
      King Kenny wins it 50-44 on all three scorecards.
      He takes his place in the final of Kingpyn with a brilliant performance.
      Round 5
      It’s over. Whindersson has been put out of his misery.
      Kenny has literally toyed with him for five rounds. A quite stunning performance.
      The judges will make it official…
      Round 4
      This is nothing more than a sparring session for Kenny at the moment.
      He’s picking his shots and landing at will. Combinations, flurries, hooks, jabs. It’s all there for Kenny at the moment.
      The crowd is silenced. Whindersson is trying everything and is having no joy.
      One more round and it would have to be something very dramatic for Kenny not to win this.
      Round 3
      Whindersson trying his hardest to get into this fight, but he just can’t get near Kenny.
      The Watford man is in complete control and wins another round.
      Kenny might be wearing Brazil colours, but his teammates are lapping it up in Argentina football shirts and a replica World Cup.
      Round 2
      What a massive round for Kenny and Whindersson seemingly has no answers.
      Kenny is walking him down and dominating.
      The fans are trying to lift the Brazilian, but this is one way traffic.
      Whindersson down!
      Whindersson is down! HUGE left hook!
      So much for Kenny showboating but not hurting in round one.
      Well he’s on fire here in round two and looking to finish Whindersson.
      He and his fans are stunned.
      Round 1
      Kenny puts on a show in round one.
      Not sure how much he impacted or hurt Nunes really, but he certainly showed his showboating and flashiness.
      Round one to Kenny for sure with his slick boxing on the outside. Whindersson yet to get going.
      Seconds out
      The formalities are over, the fighters have had their final instructions.
      We’re ready to roll in the main event of the evening.
      Electric atmosphere in Dublin.
      What an entrance
      The roof just came off this place as Whindersson made his entrance.
      Incredible noise in the arena. He rapped along to the words as well.
      We’re all set for a cracker.
      Here we go
      King Kenny is on his way to the ring, playing Brazilian music and wearing the Brazil colours on his robe.
      He knows exactly what he’s doing in front of a pro-Brazilian crowd cheering on Whindersson.
      Main event
      Who will AnEson Gib face in the Kingpyn High Stakes tournament final?
      We’ll find out very shortly with Whindersson and Kenny set to make their way to the ring.
      Gib says
      “I have all respect for Jarvis. Kenny, Whindersson I’m coming for you. Whoever wins I’ll see you in the final.
      “People said I was underestimating him but he’s nothing I didn’t know. I smoked him for five rounds.”
      Gib wins!
      It’s comprehensive and unanimous. AnEson Gib is into the final of the Kingpyn tournament.
      Very impressive.
      Round 5
      And it’s over. We go to the scorecards.
      Gib looks the happier man and for good reason. He took control of that bout in the second half.
      We’ll see how the judges saw it in just a second.
      Round 4
      Gib really stamping his authority now. He’s in the ascendancy here and Jarvis is getting left behind.
      He’s being pushed back and worn down. One round to go and it looks like Jarvis needs to win it, if not get a knockdown.
      Round 3
      Gib with some brilliant combinations that catch the eye and get a roar from the crowd in round three.
      It’s good, but it’s few and far between. Jarvis hanging in with him through the rounds other than for a few Gib clashes.
      Round 2
      Jarvis begins round two how he started round one and does a better job of maintaining his flow.
      A much better showing from him and a close round. Very tough to score.
      Cagey so far. Not many big shots thrown or landed.
      Round 1
      Gib finishes the round very strong. He probably does enough to steal it.
      Jarvis started very well but seemed to lose his way and his timing deserved him as the round went on.
      Gib grew into it and was boxing very well towards the end of it.
      Seconds out
      Gib vs Jarvis is underway in Dublin. The co-main event and first men’s semifinal.
      A lot of this crowd are awaiting their Brazilian hero in the main event – Whindersson Nunes.
      Here we go then…
      Jarvis is on his way to the ring with Living on a Prayer playing at the 3 Arena.
      The first semifinal just moments away.
      Fury time?
      Crosbie has called out Tommy Fury after that impressive win.
      He said: “Step in here with me you little B*tch and I’ll slap the head off ya!”
      Fury is closing in on a fight against KSI, but this one would certainly be interesting.
      It’s unanimous
      Kiefer Crosbie wins! 50-45 on two cards and 48-45 on the other.
      Not sure what the 48-45 score was about but it’s a unanimous win and deservedly so.
      Round 5
      It’s over. The fighters put the bad blood behind them and hug in the ring.
      We go to the scorecards but this one is surely going to Crosbie, even if he didn’t have a knockdown.
      Disappointing night for Chalmers, especially after getting in the ring with Floyd Mayweather last time out.
      But we wait for the scorecards.

      National anthems
      The players walk out of the tunnel in Batumi for the final.
      Kick-off is just minutes away with the national anthems being sung.
      High praise
      Both managers have shown each other huge respect ahead of the final.
      Lee Carsley said: “Spain, along with three or four others, have always been high quality and had exciting individuals.
      “Watching La Liga there is a very similar style at the top. It’s always good to learn and watch good teams play.”
      Spain gaffer Santi Denia said: “I wouldn’t like to mention any individuals in the England team. They’re a great side.
      “I would like to praise the job my colleague, Lee, has done with the team. They’ve had a great tournament so far, and he’s done a great job.”

      “The team can suffer, like against Portugal. We’ve got it in our locker to stick together and put your body on the line to keep it out.

      “It’s a shame in that respect [that many of the team will be finished at U21 level afterwards]. One of the benefits is that there is another group waiting to come through.
      “I’d like to see this group finish off this campaign with winning it. They deserve it, work so hard and are so diligent.
      “The bigger the stage you’ll see a different intensity to the team. I’m looking forward to it.”

      2009 runners-up
      This is England’s first final in the Under-21 Euros since 2009.
      The Young Lions were beaten by a German side including Manuel Neuer, Sami Khedira and Mesut Ozil 4-0.
      England that day lined-up with the likes of Mark Noble, Micah Richards and James Milner in the team.
      Star Player – Abel Ruiz
      Abel Ruiz is leading the scoring charts at the Euros with three goals and has two assist to his name.
      The Braga striker is 23-years-old and one of the oldest players eligible.
      He came out of Barcelona’s famous La Masia academy and has been capped twice by Spain’s senior side.
      It is also worth keeping an eye on Sergio Gomez, the Man City left-back is playing an advanced role on the wing and showing his attacking quality.
      Star Player – Gibbs-White
      England have impressed in every game and there has been several star performers.
      But without Morgan Gibbs-White, the Young Lions would not be the same.
      The Nottingham Forest attacking midfielder has played just off striker Anthony Gordon and created chances for fun.
      He has the most assists in the tournament with three and he netted the crucial opening goal in the semis with a great looping header.
      His passing has been a joy and his quick touches and lay-offs when he drops deep have been key in England’s ability to play a great brand of football.
      Further up the pitch, in-perfect through balls have unlocked most defences so far.

      Batumi Arena
      The stage is set – the Batumi Arena in Georgia.
      The stadium has become England’s second home as this will be the Young Lions’ fourth match there.
      Spain have not played in the ground yet with all of their matches being played in the over host nation in Bucharest, Romania.
      England boss Lee Carsley said: “It’s definitely a venue we feel comfortable in. From the journey to the stadium, the lads are aware of how far it is and the reception we get.
      “The Premier League is very popular in Georgia, you see the shirts everywhere. The players have made a point of signing autographs and meeting the locals.
      “We’ve had a lot of kids at training and they’ve been giving them jerseys, that goes a long way.”

      They have scored an impressive 13 goals en route to the final, including a 5-1 hammering of Ukraine in the semis.
      Typical of a Spanish side, they are confident on the ball and look set to be England’s toughest opponents so far.
      Untouchable England
      England have made the final with a perfect run. Five matches played, ten goals scored and zero conceded. 
      The Young Lions have oozed quality and shown their superiority and talent in the squad.  
      Defensively, Levi Colwill and Taylor Harwood-Bellis have not put a foot wrong, offering composure on the ball and fantastic protection to the highly-rated James Trafford between the sticks.
      England have been excellent in possession, dominating the ball against every opponent and creating chances for fun via Morgan Gibbs-White and Emile Smith Rowe.
      Boss Lee Carsley plays with a rotating front four that has been unstoppable so far.
      The Final
      England are in the final – will it come home?
      The Under-21s have impressed throughout the tournament and are now 90 minutes away from glory.
      It is the Young Lions first final since 2009 and they last won this competition in 1984.
      We have all the build-up, live text commentary and post-match reaction as Lee Carsley’s side hope to beat Spain.

      by

      EDWIN VAN DER SAR has been admitted to intensive care after suffering bleeding around the brain, his former club has confirmed.The former Manchester United legend, 52, is currently in a stable condition after falling ill while on holiday in Croatia, according to Dutch broadcaster Nos.
      Ajax released a statement confirming his condition, writing: “On Friday, Edwin van der Sar has had a bleeding around his brain. He’s currently in hospital in the intensive care unit and is in a stable condition. Once there is more concrete information, an update will follow. Everyone at Ajax wishes Edwin a speedy recovery. We’re thinking of you.”
      Meanwhile the Red Devils – Van der Sar’s former club which he helped scoop four Premier League titles – has paid tribute to the world-famous goalie on Twitter, writing: “Sending all our love and strength to you, Edwin.”
      Van der Sar most recently worked at the Eredivisie giants but left his role after the club finished third last season.
      Read our Edwin Van der Sal blog below for the latest news…
      Annemarie’s cerebral hemorrhage
      In December 2009, Edwin was given compassionate leave by Manchester United to be by his wife’s side after she suffered a brain hemorrhage.
      At the time, Annemarie’s condition was described as “very poorly” after collapsing on December 23, aged 36.
      Annemarie spent three weeks in the hospital.
      Does the couple have children together?
      The couple share two adult children together, Joe and Lynn.
      The football star’s son has previously played for the Pittsburgh Panthers.
      More on Van der Sar’s wife, Annemarie van Kesteren
      Both Annemarie and Edwin remain closely involved with the Edwin van der Sar Foundation and the Brain Foundation.
      Aside from sharing her health journey with the public, not much else is known about Annemarie, with the football stars wife appearing to prefer keeping her private life out of the spotlight.
      However, Edwin has occasionally shared pictures of his wife to his official Instagram account, @edwinvandersar1.
      In March 2023, Edwin shared a montage of sweet snaps and selfies taken with his wife to celebrate her birthday.
      Get to know Van der Sar’s wife, Annemarie van Kesteren
      Edwin van der Sar married Annemarie Van Kesteren in May 2006, in a ceremony that took place in Amsterdam.
      Annemarie, who also suffered a brain hemorrhage in 2009, is a founder of the Edwin van der Sar Foundation, alongside her husband.
      The foundation is committed to supporting people with brain injuries.
      In January 2021, the Edwin van der Sar Foundation and the Brain Foundation joined forces.
      When Van der Sar started at Man Utd
      Van der Sar joined Manchester United on June 10, 2005, for a rumored cost of £2million.
      The precise amount was not released.
      Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson regards him as the club’s finest goalkeeper since Peter Schmeichel.
      Time with Fulham
      Van der Sar chose to play in England and signed a four-year contract with newly promoted Fulham in a shock move worth £7million on August 1, 2001.
      Fulham formally revealed Van der Sar the next day.
      On August 18, 2001, he made his league debut in a 3-2 away loss to Manchester United.
      During his time with Fulham, he made 127 league appearances. In his final season with the club, he saved two penalties from Juan Pablo Ángel in a 1-1 draw against Aston Villa.
      His achievements for the Cottagers drew the attention of Manchester United and Sir Alex Ferguson.
      Time with Juventus, conclusion
      Van der Sar lost his spot in the summer of 2001 when the Bianconeri paid Parma 100billion lire (roughly £32.6million) for Italian international goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, a world record amount for a goalkeeper.
      He made it obvious that he did not want to be second-choice behind Buffon after two years in Serie A.
      Time with Juventus, continued
      During his first two seasons in Italy, he was the first-choice goalkeeper, making 66 Serie A games as Juventus were runners-up in the league twice under Carlo Ancelotti, each time with the best defensive record in the league.
      In his debut season, he won the 1999 UEFA Intertoto Cup and helped the team challenge for the Serie A crown.
      However, on the last day of the 1999-2000 season, Juventus lost to Perugia Calcio after Van der Sar was defeated by Alessandro Calori’s volley, allowing Lazio to surpass Juventus and win the league title by a single point.
      Time with Juventus
      Van der Sar’s status as one of Europe’s finest goalkeepers garnered interest from Manchester United, who were looking for a replacement for Peter Schmeichel.
      Nevertheless, Van der Sar transferred to the Italian side Juventus for a fee believed to be in the region of £5million.
      He made his Old Lady debut in a 1-1 tie with Reggina at the Stadio delle Alpi.
      He became the Turin club’s first non-Italian goalkeeper.
      Fan reactions to Ajax resignation
      Many words of support flooded the replies to Van de Sar’s tweet announcing his resignation from Ajax.
      One fan wrote: “The doors of Old Trafford are always open for you, Legend.”
      Another said: “Legend!! You’ll have a new job in no time.”
      ‘Dear Ajax’
      In his most recent Twitter post made on May 30, Van der Sar shared an open letter to Ajax, resigning from his role of chief executive.
      The images read in part: “I feel the need to take some distance, to get some rest, and do other things. It doesn’t feel good to take decisions about the future of this wonderful club in the coming period.
      “That is why I have decided to resign.”
      Time with Ajax, continued
      He was in goal for Ajax in the 1996 UEFA Champions League Final, although they were defeated on penalties by Juventus and had to settle for a runner-up medal.
      Van der Sar appeared in 226 games for Ajax, scoring a penalty in the 1997-98 season to seal an 8-1 victory over De Graafschap.
      He won the Dutch Football Goalkeeper of the Year in his first full season as Ajax’s No. 1 and went on to retain the trophy for the next three years.
      Time with Ajax
      Van der Sar, who was born in Voorhout, began his career with Foreholte before moving on to VV Noordwijk.
      He was brought to the notice of Louis van Gaal at a somewhat late age, and he later signed for Ajax.
      Despite his late arrival, he spent time in the reserve team before being called up to the main team by Louis van Gaal.
      He had a long and successful career with them, winning the 1991-92 UEFA Cup (albeit as a reserve, making no appearances in the run) and the 1994-95 UEFA Champions League (by now the starting goalkeeper), as well as the 1995 Best European Goalkeeper award, in addition to domestic honours.
      Teams Van der Sars has represented
      Throughout his time as a successful goalkeeper, Van der Sars has seen a variety of teams.
      Here is a list of each of the teams he has represented:

      Ajax
      Juventus
      Fulham
      Machester United
      Dutch national team

      One of the best footballers ever
      Van der Sar is regarded as one of the finest goalkeepers of all time by both critics and teammates.
      He is also one of the most successful players in history, having won 26 major trophies throughout his career, most of which he earned with Ajax and Manchester United.
      During the 2008-09 season, he established a world record by going 1,311 minutes without allowing a league goal.
      He is also the oldest Premier League winner, having done it in 2011 at the age of 40 years and 205 days.
      Van der Sar has received several individual honors, including Best European Goalkeeper in 1995 and 2009, as well as UEFA Club Goalkeeper of the Year in 2009.
      Knowing how to separate one thing from another
      One fan took to Twitter to wish Van der Sar the best, despite him being “an enemy on the pitch.”
      The fan wrote: “Football is important but certain things transcend the tribal allegiances of supporters.
      “The plight of ex @ManUtd keeper Edwin van der Sar is one such occurrence after he suffered a bleed on his brain. He was the enemy on the pitch but here’s wishing him a speedy recovery.”
      Fans send in their support
      After hearing the news of Van der Sar’s hospitalisation, fans have flocked to Twitter to send shows of support.
      One fan wrote in Spanish: “Lots of encouragement to Edwin Van der San, legend of the @ManUtd, I hope that everything turns out well and that he gets well soon.”
      Mucho ánimo a Edwin Van der Sar, leyenda del @ManUtd , espero que todo salga bien y se recupere pronto ❤️ #RedDevils— Jhine RM (@jrealm14) July 7, 2023

      In February this year, Davis pleaded guilty to four offences relating to the incident three years ago, in which he smashed into a car carrying four people – including a pregnant woman.

      The megafight between Davis and Garcia was a highly anticipated fight, but many missed it after the DAZN PPV stream broke and charged some customers up to six times for the event.
      DAZN offered the fight to subscribers at a lower price of $60 compared to the Showtime/PPV price tag of $84.99.

      delays in accessing the PPV broadcast after buying it.

      Gervonta Davis is turning into a mini-monster hell-bent on taking Mike Tyson’s tag
      This is a comment piece by Colin Hart
      Gervonta Davis is a tiny tearaway who is big trouble inside and outside the ring.
      He is rapidly turning into a mini-monster who seems hell-bent on taking over Mike Tyson’s role as boxing’s “Baddest Man on the Planet.”
      Davis is a ferocious punching pocket-battleship who fires explosive missiles with both hands.
      It was obvious he was an exceptional talent to those fortunate to see him destroy Liam Walsh in less than three rounds when he defended his world super-featherweight crown at East London’s Copper Box, six years ago.
      Since then, Davis has been arrested on numerous occasions for several offences including aggravated assault.
