T he rivalry between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo may never have been as fiery as some have assumed, but never has it been as friendly as in the past week, when both players heaped praise on the other. First, the Real Madrid forward explained in the build-up to the Champions League final just how much he enjoys watching the Barcelona No.10, before the Argentine responded with comments of his own. "Of course I like him, as I like to watch all of the good players and he is one of those," Ronaldo told FOX Sports Argentina when asked about Messi. "[Messi] is a 'crack', a star. "I really enjoy watching him play." In an interview with ESPN, Messi had some similarly high praise for the man he has shared the Ballon d'Or with over the past nine years. "He is a phenomenal player with a lot of quality, who outdoes himself each year," Messi said of Ronaldo. "The entire world kno...

B arcelona have made little secret of the fact that their primary objective this summer is to sign a right-back and of the fact that Arsenal's Hector Bellerin is their top choice, but Arsene Wenger has insisted that the player is not for sale. Undeterred, the Blaugrana will keep working to make the player's Camp Nou return a reality and could offer far more than the 40 million euros they'd initially hoped to spend. It is already turning into a transfer saga and these are five of the main questions which need answered. 1. Have Barcelona met with Bellerin? While it's true that there has been a phone call to inform the 22-year-old of the club's intent to sign him and to ask about his contract situation, there has been no meeting between the Blaugrana directors and the player's agent. 2. Has he promised his future to Arsenal? There is no agreement between Bellerin and the Catalan club, nor has there even been a formal offer made to ...

A t the age of 31, Sergio Ramos is already one of the great Real Madrid heroes. The centre-back, who joined Los Blancos in 2005, can boast an enviable track record at the club with two Champions League wins, two Club World Cups, two European Super Cups, four LaLiga titles, two Copa del Rey wins and two Spanish Super Copa trophies. If he helps Real beat Juventus, he will not only emerge victorious in the Champions League for the third time but would also form part of a select club of Real captains who have had the privilege of raising the European Cup on two occasions with the armband proudly in place. 1955/56 MIGUEL MUNOZ (Real Madrid 4-3 Stade de Reims) The first man to achieve the feat was Munoz, who was also the first man to lift the trophy as a winning captain. He scored Real's debut goal in the competition against Servette on September 8, 1955. In the final that year, Real had to come from 2-0 behind to overcome Stade de Reims and a year later, he was c...

ROANOKE COUNTY, Va. — Curiosity got the best of a 200-pound bear who found itself locked inside a car Thursday while trying to find an early morning snack. Virginia police responded to the call around 5 a.m. after the bear honked the car’s horn and woke the homeowners up.

Luckily, the baby bear caused minor damage to the vehicle and was able to find some treats before making its way out back into the woods.

A gainst Sevilla on Sunday night, Cristiano Ronaldo once again came to the rescue of Real Madrid. He grabbed a crucial brace , taking his tally to 11 since Los Blancos’ Champions League visit to Bayern Munich in April. That night the forward scored twice and in the return leg, bagged a hat-trick before delivering another against Valencia ahead of hitting Atletico Madrid for three at the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. Against Sevilla, Ronaldo has popped up with two important goals to help his side to a 4-1 victory and of those 11 goals he has scored recently, they all have a common denominator. All of them came within the penalty box, like so many of the former Manchester United forward’s goals this season. In total, he has scored 37 times during the current campaign and 33 of those goals have came inside the penalty area. It is further evidence that Ronaldo is revelling in a central role, with both goals against Sevilla coming with his first touch in the box, instantly sendin...
