Adrián Liso’s Brace Sinks Sevilla as Getafe Stay Perfect in La Liga

Getafe continued their dream start to the 2025–26 La Liga season with a gritty 2–1 away win over Sevilla, thanks to a brilliant brace from Adrián Liso. The victory marks Getafe’s second straight win, placing them among the early front-runners alongside Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Villarreal.

The visitors struck first in the 15th minute, when Liso latched onto a short corner from Luis Milla and fired a deflected shot past Sevilla keeper Ørjan Nyland. Sevilla responded just before halftime, but not in the way they intended — a teasing cross from Juanlu Sánchez was mistakenly headed into his own net by Juan Iglesias, leveling the score at 1–1.

Getafe regained the lead in the 51st minute, with Liso once again combining with Milla to slot a low shot into the bottom corner. Despite Sevilla dominating possession with 72%, they struggled to convert chances. Isaac Romero hit the woodwork, and Akor Adams was denied late on by a sharp save from Getafe goalkeeper David Soria.

Adrián Liso celebrates his match-winning brace that lifted Getafe to fourth in the La Liga standings.

Sevilla manager Matías Almeyda, still searching for his first win, admitted his side lacked sharpness in the final third. “We’re building something new, but we need to be more clinical,” he said post-match. Almeyda’s tenure has now begun with two consecutive defeats.

Getafe’s coach José Bordalás praised his team’s discipline and resilience. “We knew Sevilla would dominate the ball, but we stayed compact and took our chances,” he said. Liso, who now has three goals in two games, is quickly emerging as one of La Liga’s breakout stars.

With this result, Getafe climb to fourth in the table, while Sevilla sink toward the bottom, still winless after two rounds. The pressure is mounting in Seville, but Getafe fans have every reason to dream.

US Open : Alcaraz and Djokovic Advance, Medvedev Crashes Out in Chaotic First Round

The opening rounds of the 2025 US Open have kicked off with high intensity and unexpected twists. World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz began his campaign today with a first-round match against American Reilly Opelka. Alcaraz, fresh off his Cincinnati Masters win, is eyeing a third consecutive Grand Slam final showdown with rival Jannik Sinner, who plays his opener against Vit Kopriva tomorrow.

Alcaraz, who won the US Open in 2024, said he’s “relishing the possibility” of facing Sinner again in the final. The two have split the last eight Grand Slam titles between them, drawing comparisons to the legendary Federer-Nadal era.

Meanwhile, Novak Djokovic made history by securing his 75th consecutive Grand Slam opening-round win, defeating 19-year-old Learner Tien in straight sets (6-1, 7-6, 6-2). Despite battling a foot blister and a time violation, Djokovic showed his trademark resilience and tactical brilliance. “It was a strange kind of match,” he said, reflecting on the contrast between the quick first set and the grueling second.

But the biggest shock came from Daniil Medvedev, who was eliminated in a chaotic five-set thriller against Benjamin Bonzi. The match was interrupted when a photojournalist entered the court between serves, causing a seven-minute delay and sparking a heated exchange between Medvedev and the umpire. The Russian, who won the US Open in 2021, was visibly frustrated and later said, “I was not upset with the photographer. I was upset with the decision”.

Off the court, players have voiced mixed feelings about the US Open’s famously rowdy atmosphere. Frances Tiafoe and Ben Shelton say they thrive in the chaos, while others like Casper Ruud and Agnieszka Radwanska find the noise, smells, and long commutes draining.

The tournament continues through September 7, with top seeds like Coco Gauff, Holger Rune, and Taylor Fritz also advancing. Fans can expect more fireworks as the second round begins tomorrow.

Athletic Club Clinch Narrow 1–0 Win Over Rayo Vallecano at San Mamés

Athletic Club continued their strong start to the 2025–26 La Liga season with a hard-fought 1–0 victory over Rayo Vallecano on Monday night in Bilbao. The lone goal came from Oihan Sancet, who converted a penalty in the 66th minute to seal all three points for the hosts.

The match, played at the iconic San Mamés Stadium, was a tense affair from the outset. Rayo Vallecano, fresh off a confident win against Girona, dominated possession with 57% of the ball but struggled to break down Athletic’s disciplined defense. The visitors were also plagued by indiscipline, picking up four yellow cards, including bookings for Unai López, Andrei Ratiu, Álvaro García, and Pep Chavarría.

Athletic, meanwhile, were more clinical. Despite having less of the ball, they created more meaningful chances, with the Williams brothers — Iñaki and Nico — constantly threatening down the flanks. The breakthrough came after a foul inside the box, and Sancet stepped up to calmly slot the ball past Rayo keeper Augusto Batalla.

Athletic Club players celebrate Sancet’s penalty goal in front of a packed San Mamés crowd.

Rayo Vallecano pushed hard for an equalizer in the final minutes, with Jorge de Frutos and Isi Palazón leading the charge. However, Athletic’s backline, marshaled by Dani Vivian and Aitor Paredes, held firm. Goalkeeper Unai Simón made a crucial save late in the game to preserve the clean sheet.

The win marks Athletic’s best start to a La Liga season since 2013, with two victories from two matches. Manager Ernesto Valverde praised his side’s resilience, especially in the absence of key players like Beñat Prados and Unai Gómez. “We knew Rayo would be aggressive and organized. We stayed patient and took our chance,” Valverde said post-match.

Rayo manager Iñigo Pérez expressed disappointment but remained optimistic. “We controlled the game but lacked sharpness in the final third. We’ll regroup and come back stronger,” he told reporters.

With this result, Athletic climb to third in the table, while Rayo drop to mid-table with one win and one loss. Both teams will now turn their attention to next weekend’s fixtures, with Athletic facing Real Betis and Rayo hosting Mallorca.

Liverpool Edge Newcastle 3–2 in Stoppage-Time Thriller at St. James’ Park

 

In a match packed with drama, controversy, and a star-making moment, Liverpool defeated Newcastle United 3–2 in a gripping Premier League encounter on Monday night. The game, played in front of a roaring crowd of over 52,000 at St. James’ Park, saw 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha score a stunning 100th-minute winner on his Premier League debut.

Liverpool took the lead in the 35th minute through Ryan Gravenberch, who fired past Nick Pope after a slick build-up. Just before halftime, Newcastle’s Anthony Gordon was sent off for a reckless tackle on Virgil van Dijk — initially shown a yellow, but upgraded to red after a VAR review.

The Reds doubled their lead seconds into the second half when Hugo Ekitike, a summer signing, slotted home Liverpool’s second goal. But Newcastle, down to ten men, mounted a spirited comeback. Bruno Guimaraes headed in a goal in the 57th minute, and William Osula equalized in the 88th minute, sending the home fans into a frenzy.

Just when it seemed the Magpies had salvaged a point, Liverpool’s teenage sensation Ngumoha — subbed on in the 96th minute — swept in a composed finish from Mohamed Salah’s assist to seal the win. The goal made Ngumoha Liverpool’s youngest-ever Premier League scorer, just four days shy of his 17th birthday.

The match was also overshadowed by the ongoing Alexander Isak transfer saga. The Swedish striker, reportedly the subject of a £110 million bid from Liverpool, was absent from the squad and has not trained with Newcastle since pre-season.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot praised Ngumoha’s composure, saying, “He’s shown himself in a high-pressure moment. He’s got to be involved.” Newcastle boss Eddie Howe, meanwhile, expressed pride in his team’s fight but lamented the red card and mounting injuries.

With this win, Liverpool remain unbeaten and top the table, while Newcastle are still searching for their first victory of the season.
