This weekend's UFC 308 event is not just a highly anticipated match between featherweight fighters Max Holloway and Ilia Topuria, but it also marks the football 'El Clasico' between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. In a fun twist, Topuria, known to be a die-hard Real Madrid fan, has received a custom #9 jersey from Barcelona - typically reserved for the team's strikers. In a recent interview, Holloway expressed his gratitude and excitement for the gift, as well as his confidence in winning the fight. With FC Barcelona openly supporting Holloway, this has added another layer of excitement for fans of both MMA and football alike.
The highly anticipated FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid match, known as "The Classic," has stirred up more controversy than excitement. In the midst of a tense game, a disputed goal call due to the absence of goal-line technology has caused an uproar on social media. LaLiga EA Sports president Javier Tebas has faced criticism for not implementing such technology, leading to the third incident this season. However, Tebas has defended the decision by pointing out flaws in other leagues' systems.
La Liga president Javier Tebas has expressed his desire for Mason Greenwood to continue playing in Spain beyond this season, amid rumours that the Manchester United forward may return to the Premier League. Despite facing charges of attempted rape and assault, Tebas "doesn't care" about Greenwood's past and is impressed by his performances at Getafe on loan this season. His comments come as Manchester United have expressed disappointment over the portrayal of Bruno Fernandes' injury on viral video.
