00:00Welcome to Maxi-Sport on Mediain TV, your sports news report.
00:15Manchester United beat Southampton in the last round of the Premier League by 3-1.
00:21Last night at Old Trafford, with a three-pointer from his Ivorian ally Ahmad Diallo,
00:25in the 21st day of the Premier League, the Red Devils conceded the opening goal.
00:30In the first period, after a goal against Manuel Ugarte's side,
00:34two minutes from the break, to give the Saints an advantage, a surprise in the theatre of dreams.
00:39Back in the dressing room, it's the Ivorian international Ahmad Diallo,
00:42only 22 years old, who sounded the Cunha revolt by scoring a three-pointer
00:46in the last ten minutes of the match.
00:48Offering a precious victory to United, this victory puts an end to a series of four unsuccessful games
00:54in which Ruben Amorim's men conceded three defeats and a draw.
00:58In the standings, Manchester United climb to 12th place in the Premier League,
01:0211 points ahead of the European teams,
01:04while Southampton remain the Red Lantern of the Champions League,
01:07with six points behind them.
01:10I didn't say nothing to Ahmad after the match.
01:13I'll tell him tomorrow that he needs to rest, eat well to prepare for Sunday,
01:17because I'll need him again.
01:19He's done an excellent job.
01:21It's a great moment for a young player like him to score a three-pointer in a club like this,
01:26but he needs to focus on the next match, because it's already in the past,
01:30and he needs to prepare for the next game.
01:37The important thing is to win, and he helped us to win.
01:40He's had a very good season, and that's all.
01:42I've already spoken about it.
01:43We need to be careful with the young players.
01:45He's done a very good job.
01:47He still has a lot of things to improve, but this match is now in the past.
01:52We need to prepare for the future in football.
01:55That's how life is.
01:57Congratulations to him and to the whole team.
01:59Enjoy this evening.
02:00It's a very good moment, and he needs to enjoy this kind of moment.
02:03But tomorrow he's going to recover, and we need to prepare for the next game.
02:07I appreciate this moment, but tomorrow he's going to recover,
02:10and we have to prepare for the next game.
02:37International Marocan Brahim Diaz, who scored a goal,
02:40allowed Vinicius Junior to double the score.
02:42Following an obvious mistake by Eduardo Camavinga,
02:45Jonathan Bamba reduced the gap for Celta de Vigo to 2-1 at the 83rd minute,
02:49before the Galician team drew the equaliser on a penalty,
02:53thanks to Marcos Alonso in the first minute of the extra time of the second period.
02:57In overtime, Real Madrid finally unblocked the situation
03:00to get their ticket to the Copa del Rey quarter-finals,
03:03thanks to a double from Hendrik and an overpowering shot from Federico Valverde.
03:07The draw for the rest of the competition will take place on Monday.
03:13And if FC Barcelona had run out of threats from the Spanish fair play,
03:17at least they took a big step in this direction by making it official.
03:22This morning, they announced the sale of 475 VIP seats from Camp Nou
03:27to two investors from the Middle East.
03:29In fact, these investors acquire a license for the use of 30-year-old seats,
03:34which they can then exploit commercially or personally,
03:37while paying a seasonal subscription.
03:39In this way, Barça estimates that this reduces the risk
03:42in the process of commercialization of this type of seat,
03:45since the income is guaranteed throughout the period of exploitation
03:49and the investors pay the license for the use of the seat
03:52throughout the duration of the contract at its entry into force,
03:55so that the price of the VIP seat per season...
03:59Let's talk about Mercato now.
04:01It's more than an extension, it's a commitment for the rest of his career.
04:05The Norwegian striker Erling Haaland has extended his contract
04:08with Manchester City until 2034.
04:11An exceptional longevity that could make the Sky Blues
04:14the last club in the professional career of the Nordic scorer,
04:17who will be 34 years old at the end of this new break,
04:20signed with the retirees of Etihad Stadium,
04:24recruited in 2022 by the Panamancunian club in Borussia Dortmund
04:28for a bonus of 60 million euros.
04:31Erling Haaland has already scored no less than 111 goals
04:34under the Blue Sky jersey in 126 games,
04:37all mixed competition, which makes him one of the most feared
04:40strikers of recent years in Europe,
04:43becoming the 15th best scorer in the history of the club.
04:46At the Palmarès level, he has already won the Premier League,
04:49the English Cup, the Champions League and the European Super Cup.
04:52All this during his first season,
04:55before being crowned champion of England for his second season
04:58last spring.
05:01The Georgian player Vyshak Vrachrelia
05:04said goodbye to Napoli in a long video
05:07posted yesterday on social media,
05:10before joining Paris Saint-Germain in what will be one of the 30
05:13fairs of this winter.
05:16He is part of his affection for Naples, a unique and interesting city,
05:19and the football god Diego Maradona.
05:22He returns to the title of champion of Italy,
05:25conquered in 2022-2023.
05:28He wanted to come to the Napoli stadium one last time to host this video.
05:31It's hard for me, but it's time to say goodbye.
05:34I grew up as a person and as a player.
05:37It was a great honour for me to wear this jersey.
05:40Does he still swear?
05:43He leaves after 107 games with the Italian club for 30 goals and 29 decisive passes.
05:47Meanwhile, the player has already arrived in Paris
05:50and his signature should be made official during the day.
05:53We are talking about a transfer of 75 million euros.
05:58At 39, Cristiano Ronaldo would have concluded a deal
06:01with Anasal to extend his contract until June 2026,
06:04ensuring his presence in Arab football
06:07for at least two additional seasons.
06:10According to local media, CR7 will earn a salary close to 180 million euros
06:13for the 2025-2026 season.
06:16Although this figure is slightly lower than the 200 million euros he currently receives,
06:19it remains a contract that reflects his status
06:22and importance in Middle Eastern football.
06:25Moreover, according to Marca, he will now own Alnasser
06:28at a 5% stake.
06:31His continuity also reveals his intention to prepare
06:34for the World Cup in Saudi Arabia in 2026,
06:37perhaps his last major international tournament.
06:40Despite scoring 75 goals since he joined Alnasser,
06:43Ronaldo continues to add to his impressive total,
06:46now totaling 911 goals in the club and in the national team,
06:49with the challenge not so far-fetched to reach the bar
06:52of the 1,000 achievements in his career.
06:57Still in Saudi Arabia, under contract until June,
07:00Neymar Junior has no future at El Hilal.
07:03This is what his coach, Jorge Jesus, announced
07:06after the correction inflicted on El Fate in the Champions League.
07:10Neymar will not be included in the team for the championship.
07:13He can participate in the Asian Champions League.
07:16The Saudi league is one of the best leagues in the world.
07:19Physically, Neymar can no longer evolve to the level
07:22we are used to. This is what the Portuguese coach said
07:25before mentioning his future in the club of the Saudi capital.
07:28He is still under contract with El Hilal and it is perhaps
07:31up to him to decide his future. It depends on the administration.
07:34I don't know anything about Neymar's future.
07:37He will decide his life, end of quote.
07:40A sad end of adventure for Neymar Junior,
07:43courted by the Chicago Fire or the Inter-Miami in MLS
07:46where he could reform the famous MSN with Lionel Messi
07:49and Luis Suarez in Florida.
07:54From tennis and Italian, Yannick Sinner made the logic
07:57respected yesterday afternoon to pick up his ticket

08:21of a wild card from the organizers

08:27Sinner will play his place in the eighth final
08:30against the American Marcos Girón, 46th in the ATP ranking

09:44who took his first set in Melbourne.
09:47The quadruple laureate in the Grand Slam won
09:50in 6-2, 6-4, 6-7, 6-2
09:53against an opponent he had already dominated
09:56in the previous duel.
09:59It was in 2023 on the beaten ground of Barcelona,
10:02winner in three games of his first two matches.
10:05Alcaraz has given up his first set since the start of this Grand Slam tournament
10:08against Borges, semifinal of the ATP 250 in Auckland
10:11in the eighth final.
10:14The 21-year-old Spaniard will face either the British Jack Draper,
10:1718th in the ATP ranking, or the Australian Alexander Vukic,
10:2068th in the world, before a possible quarterfinal shock
10:23against the Serbian Novak Djokovic,
10:26who beat him 10 times in Melbourne,
10:29in search of a 25th title in the Grand Slam.
10:32For the women, now a double of the title in Melbourne,
10:35the number one in the world, Arina Sabalenka,
10:38qualified today with difficulty for the eighth final
10:41of the Olympics in Australia.
10:44Often fragile on her service games against the Danish Clara Thausen,
10:4742nd in the world.
10:507-6, 6-4 against the recent winner of the tournament in Auckland,
10:53which she faced for the first time in her career.
10:56Neither of the two players managed to keep their service
10:59during the first seven games of the match.
11:02The first round was won by Sabalenka,
11:05who needed five sevens to conclude.
11:08In the second act, Belarus managed to break away twice
11:11to seal the match.

11:1715th in the world at only 17 years old,
11:20and the winner of the Polish Magdalena Frech in three games.
11:26We end this edition with basketball.
11:29After sticking 59 on eights the night before
11:32for a franchise record,
11:35the Los Angeles Clippers impose 29 points on the court of Portland
11:38against the Trailblazers. Final score 118-89.
11:41Even if Kawai Leonard and the players of Tyrone Lou
11:44and Ivika Subac close the score at the start of the match.
11:47And two against on attempts to dunk
11:50and a James Harden to direct the maneuver on the other side of the court.
11:53Like an Anfernee Simons with zero points,
11:56the Blazers never made it into the match
11:59and the gap climbed to 34 units after a dunk by Kobe Brown.
12:02In the east, the Wizards follow an eighth consecutive defeat
12:05despite the 23 points of the Swiss Keisha Ungeorge.
12:08Aleksar's partners, 16 points, 9 rebounds,
12:12woke up far too late for one who was the Suns of Devin Booker.
12:1537 points, so it's the third game in a row at 30 points and more.
12:18In balance, the Suns have won only one game
12:21by 10 points and more this season.
12:26This concludes this edition of Maxi-Sport.
