Is 'the power of Anfield' real - and can it really ruffle PSG?

Few arenas in world football can truly change the course of a match, yet among that rare group, one stands apart.It has become almost cliche to talk of special European nights at Anfield, yet it remains the case that Liverpool is one of those grounds where the atmosphere is not a byproduct of the game, but its driving force. And if Liverpool are to overhaul a two-goal deficit against Paris Saint-Germain tomorrow night, then the crowd will have played a significant role.Advertisement

Filip Gustavsson loses his last pre-playoffs start behind preseason-like lineup: Takeaways

ST. LOUIS — If the Minnesota Wild wanted to boost struggling Filip Gustavsson’s confidence in what was his final start before the playoffs, playing him behind an exhibition-style lineup probably wasn’t the wisest idea to get him back on track.While resting players and keeping them healthy is understandably Minnesota’s biggest priority heading into the start of the Dallas Stars series next weekend, Gustavsson, the presumptive No. 1 heading into the playoffs and the player coach John Hynes called...

Serie A Briefing: Chivu's Inter stun rising Como, Milan flop again and Ranieri skewers Gasperini

Cristian Chivu’s face has always fit at Inter. He has never tried to be anybody else, even if, on the pitch, a resemblance to Simone Inzaghi is inevitable. “You get the chance to put on thousands of masks in the world of football,” he said. “Choosing not to put one on is real courage.” Chivu is Inter, and so when he has defended his players perhaps too much, as was the case with Alessandro Bastoni after the Derby d’Italia, he is still being true to himself and to his club.Advertisement
