Football match news, live scores and match reports

Want quick, clear updates on recent games? This tag page collects our best match reports, live-score updates, and key transfer news so you don’t miss the action. We focus on African fixtures alongside major global leagues — match results, turning points, and what those results mean for teams and fans.

What you'll find here

Short match reports that tell you who won, how they won, and the main moments. For example, read about Algeria’s commanding 3-0 CHAN 2024 start against Uganda that showed discipline and attacking fluency. Want club drama? We have pieces on big names, like Cristiano Ronaldo’s tense finale for Al Nassr and Manchester City’s plans around Erling Haaland after heavy summer spending.

We also cover league battles and cup finals: Fiorentina’s late 3-2 win over Cagliari, Inter Milan edging closer to the Serie A top spot, and Bayern vs Inter tactical previews in the Champions League. Match previews detail expected lineups and stakes — see the Italy vs Moldova write-up that notes Spalletti’s tactical changes ahead of his last game.

How we cover matches

We aim for fast, factual reports. Each story highlights the scoreline, key players, decisive moments, and what the result means next. Transfer-related match context is included when relevant — for instance, how Manchester United’s interest in Bryan Mbeumo could shift squad plans, or how Juventus and other clubs react to late-season form. You’ll also find disciplinary updates, like Antony’s red-card reversal that allowed him to face Real Madrid.

If you need live context, look for articles flagged as live updates or match centers. Our articles usually include minute-by-minute turning points, quotes from coaches or players when available, and implications for league tables or tournament standings.

Want deeper angles? We publish tactical breakdowns and player-focused features. These explain why teams won or lost — defensive errors, set-piece decisions, or substitutions that changed the game. Examples include analyses of Haliburton and Mathurin driving the Pacers in NBA Finals Game 3 and tactical shifts that helped Lazio vs Parma get postponed amid larger events.
