Sunderland Defeat Sheffield Wed to Strengthen Promotion Push

Sunderland took a major step in their push for Premier League promotion with a 2-1 victory over Sheffield Wednesday on Friday, led by Eliezer Mayenda’s brace. Mayenda, who had already scored twice against Wednesday earlier this season, once again proved to be the difference as his goals secured another crucial win for the Black Cats. However, the victory came with controversy, as Mayenda’s opener in the 34th minute sparked protests from Wednesday. The hosts argued that Leo Hjelde’s long ball hit his arm before he shot it into the net. However, the referee stuck with the decision to count it as a goal. The win moves Sunderland five points behind second-placed Sheffield United in the league standings.

Arteta insist not giving up Title Race

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has stated that his squad has no intention of giving up the Premier League title race. He told reporters on Tuesday that regardless of the injuries and setbacks, his team has done well. In the report he said. “We’re not going to stop. Over my dead body,”  If somebody tells you at the start of the season that you play five times with a red card, over half an hour in each of those games, and you have lost this amount of players… you’re in the middle of the table at least,” Arteta said. “That’s not the situation. So that tells you the resilience, resources, the ambition the team has.”

Guardiola Dismisses City Rebuild as Biggest Challenge of His Career

Pep Guardiola has rejected the idea that rebuilding Manchester City is the toughest challenge of his managerial career. Despite his team struggling to finish among the top four in Premier League, the City’s Coach remains unfazed by the task ahead of him. City, who face Tottenham on Wednesday, sit 20 points behind leaders Liverpool after a 2-0 defeat to Arne Slot’s side. They’ve also been struggling with their defense this season. They were knocked out of the Champions League following a 6-3 aggregate defeat to Real Madrid. Despite all of this, Guardiola insists that he is prepared for the challenge of helping City reclaim their dominance as seven time Premier League title winners. “We have done it already, so after nine years it’s not the same thing that we started nine years ago. We have done it two or three times already, so it’s not the biggest challenge,” the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss said on Tuesday. “The challenge I had was when I was starting my managerial career and with my staff and a lot of staff, we worked together and proved to our staff that we can do it. “ City made four signings in the January transfer window – Omar Marmoush, Abdukodir Khusanov, Nico Gonzalez and Vitor Reis – illustrating the scale of the rebuild required following injuries and a loss of form for key players.
