The Ferrari star will be anxious to confirm his future drive after Fernando Alonso set the latest domino toppling by signing a new contract with Aston Martin. The 29-year-old Spaniard is viewed by Red Bull as a worthy candidate to replace Sergio Perez, but the reigning champions are in no rush to confirm their 2025 line-up and are still assessing both their incumbent second driver Yuki Tsunoda. Mercedes are also monitoring Sainz’s availability, but Toto Wolff still has his heart set on three-time champion Max Verstappen and is therefore unwilling to commit at present. Discussing Sainz’s predicament on the Sky Sports F1 podcast, Brundle said: “Will Perez keep the Red Bull seat? That’s the key, that’s the cork in the bottle. Because putting Sainz in the Red Bull would be a no-brainer for me, or an Aston Martin or a MercedesBenz for that matter. “He’s now got the experience, he’s got the speed, he’s still got youth on his side to an extent. So the problem team Sainz have is that Sauber, let’s call them Audi going forward, are putting him under pressure to do a long-term deal, which means he will then be at Sauber next year. “(He’ll be) treading water and then hanging all of his chances on how quickly Audi can get their team and their power unit together and become competitive, and that’s no small task. “I think my advice to Carlos and his Dad would be just… things happen very quickly in this business. Two weeks is a very long time in Formula One… just keep your options open.” – Express Newspapers JOS BUTTLER smashed an unbeaten 107 to trump Sunil Narine’s first T20 century as Rajasthan Royals pulled off a joint record IPL chase against Kolkata Knight Riders off the final ball yesterday. Chasing 224 for victory, Rajasthan looked in trouble at 121-6 in the 13th over but Buttler moved through the gears in his 60-ball blitz to achieve the target with two wickets to spare at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens. Rajasthan equalled their own record from 2020 when they chased down 224 against Kings XI Punjab in Sharjah. Buttler, who came in as an impact substitute, reached his second ton of the season in 55 balls with a six off Varun Chakravarthy at the start of the last over. Buttler, struggling with cramp, then played out three dot balls before a two and a single on the final delivery ensured Rajasthan held on to top spot in the table with six wins in seven matches. “Keep believing, that was the real key today,” Buttler said. “I was struggling a bit for rhythm. At times you feel frustrated or you are questioning yourself.” He said, “There’s been plenty of times throughout the IPL, you’ve seen crazy things happen. Guys like (MS) Dhoni and (Virat) Kohli, the way they stay till the end and keep believing and I tried to do the same.” England’s Buttler, who hit nine fours and six sixes, moved ahead of Chris Gayle with seven IPL tons and is only behind Kohli’s eight in the T20 tournament. Buttler built key partnerships including 50 runs with Riyan Parag (34), 57 with Rovman Powell (26) and then an unbeaten 38-run stand with Avesh Khan (0 not out). Spinners Narine, Chakravarthy and fast bowler Harshit Rana took two wickets each for KKR. “Emotions were a rollercoaster, certainly didn’t think we will get into this situation,” said Kolkata captain Shreyas Iyer. “It’s a funny game at the end of the day, he was striking the ball cleanly and timing them so well, have to take it on the chin and move on.” – AFP Buttler ton powers Rajasthan over Knight Riders PERISYTIHARAN JUALAN DALAM MAHKAMAH TINGGI MALAYA DI PULAU PINANG PERMOHONAN UNTUK PERLAKSANAAN NO: PA-38-44-01/2024 Dalam perkara mengenai Seksyen 256 dan 257 Kanun Tanah Negara, 1965 Dan Dalam perkara mengenai Gadaian Perserahan No: 0799SC2020017081 (bertarikh : 23/07/2020) ke atas semua bahagian tanah yang dipegang di bawah Hakmilik Strata No. Hakmilik Geran 78884/M1B/16/310, Lot 10088, Mukim 13, Daerah Timor Laut, Pulau Pinang Dan Dalam perkara mengenai Aturan 83 Kaedah- Kaedah Mahkamah, 2012 ANTARA PUBLIC BANK BERHAD (No. Syarikat : 6463-H) ...PLAINTIF DAN YEOH KEE CHAI (No. Kad Pengenalan : 840109146049) ...DEFENDAN Menurut Perintah Mahkamah Tinggi Malaya di PULAU PINANG mengenai Perintah Jualan dan Perintah bertarikh 8 Ogos 2023 dan 15 Mac 2024, adalah dengan ini diisytiharkan bahawa Timbalan Pendaftar/Penolong Kanan Pendaftar Pusat Operasi e-Lelong di Kuantan AKAN MENJUAL SECARA LELONG AWAM Pada Hari Rabu, 8 Mei 2024, Pada Jam 11:00 pagi, SECARA ELEKTRONIK DI LAMAN WEB e-LELONG, PUSAT OPERASI e-LELONG, KOMPLEKS MAHKAMAH KUANTAN, PAHANG DARUL MAKMUR NOTA: Bakal pembeli adalah dinasihatkan aqar membuat carian Hakmilik secara rasmi di Pejabat Tanah dan memeriksa semua tanqqunqan, bebanan serta mengenal pasti dengan tepat hartanah tersebut sebelum jualan lelongan dijalankan.

SPORTS SPORTS THURSDAY | APR 18, 2024 28 RAFAEL NADAL said he had limited expectations at the Barcelona Open as he made a triumphant return from injury yesterday, beating Italy’s Flavio Cobolli 6-2, 6- 3. The 22-time Grand Slam champion had not played a competitive match since January but eased past the 62nd-ranked Cobolli in 85 minutes to reach the second round. The former world No. 1 has seen his ranking slip to 644 after missing all of the 2023 season following the Australian Open. His comeback at the start of this year hit a stumbling block when he felt a hip injury flare up in Brisbane. For Nadal, a 12-time winner in Barcelona, it was his first appearance on clay since he won the French Open almost two years ago, but the Spaniard was keen not to get ahead of himself. Stefanos Tsitsipas, last week’s Monte Carlo Masters champion, said earlier this week he wouldn’t be surprised to see Nadal to reach the final on a court named after him. “ To d a y to say that I am favourite I think i s stupidity, Tsitsipas knows that it’s not the case,” said Nadal, who turns 38 in June. “I understand what he says as respect for what I have done in this tournament. Everybody knows I am not favourite to win a tournament. “I didn’t have the slightest idea if I was favourite today, I know tomorrow I will not be,” added Nadal, who plays fourth seed Alex de Minaur overnight for a place in the last 16. “But it doesn’t matter, I will go out and play and it will be an experience against a top level player.” After a double fault to fall 30-0 behind Nadal found his rhythm, with Cobolli intimidated by the fervent support for the Spaniard on the court named after him. Nadal converted his third break point in the fourth game for a 3-1 lead, with Cobolli surviving four more to hold at 4-2 down. The Spaniard broke again to claim the set in 43 minutes, clenching his fist in celebration. Cobolli handed Nadal a break for 2-0 in the second set with two more unforced errors but finally put some pressure on Nadal’s serve in the third game to break back. However Nadal broke again for 3-1 after Cobolli’s third double fault and served it out to triumph. “It was a good start – when you return you can’t get rid of the doubts in one day, above all, on a physical level,” Nadal told TVE. “Within what it could be, it was a good first round. He made mistakes and I think I played the game that I had to play.” – AFP Nadal cool on expectations Former world No. 1 makes winning return in Barcelona McIlroy rejects rumours of RM4b move to LIV Golf RORY MCILROY denied a published report on Tuesday linking him to an US$850 million (RM4b) move to LIV Golf, saying he plans to remain with the PGA Tour “the rest of my career.” McIlroy’s agent, Sean O’Flaherty, called Tuesday’s story in the London newspaper City AM “fake news.” McIlroy addressed the report with Golf Channel from the practice range in Hilton Head, site of this week’s RBC Heritage tournament. “I honestly don’t know how these things get started,” McIlroy said. “I’ve never been offered a number from LIV, and I’ve never contemplated going to LIV. Again, I think I’ve made it clear over the past two years that I don’t think it’s something for me. “It doesn’t mean that I judge people who have went and played over there. I think one of the things that I have realised over the past two years is that people can make their own decisions for whatever they think is best for themselves, and who are we to judge them for that? “But personally, for me, my future is here on the PGA Tour, and it’s never been any different.” O’Flaherty told the Irish Independent there was “zero truth” to report in City AM, which claimed “two separate sources” confirmed that a deal was “close” to give McIlroy US$850 million to join plus a 2% equity stake in the league. “It’s never even been a conversation for us,” McIlroy said. “It’s unfortunate we have to deal with it, and this is the state our game is in. I’m obviously here and going to the PGA Tour event next week, and I’ll play the PGA Tour the rest of my career.” – Field Level Media BRIAN HARMAN is excited for his friend Scottie Scheffler and wife Meredith to welcome their first child into the world. And the reigning Open champion wouldn’t mind if that momentous event occurs a few days earlier than the expected due date later this month. “There’s lots of parts of me that hope (Scheffler) doesn’t play,” Harman joked yesterday ahead of this week’s RBC Heritage on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Scheffler traveled to the Harbour Town Golf Links on the heels of his second Masters triumph on Sunday. It’s one of eight signature events on the 2024 PGA Tour schedule, but Scheffler has vowed that he will leave on a moment’s notice should Meredith go into labour early. The No. 1-ranked player in the world has won three of his past four starts and finished an agonising missed putt on the 72nd hole short of forcing a playoff in the other. Scheffler’s four-shot win at the Masters was his second in the past three years at Augusta National. Scheffler is now chasing one more big trophy before heading back to Dallas to prepare for the birth of the couple’s first child. “I’m not surprised. He’s one of those guys that when he commits to do a thing, he’s going to do it,” Harman said. “He’s about as impressive as a guy that you’re ever going to meet.” The gap between Scheffler and the rest of the world’s elite players has continued to stretch during this latest run of dominance. It has started to garner comparisons to the 2012-13 stretch enjoyed by Tiger Woods, when he won a combined eight times in 35 starts. “Seems like Scottie and his current trajectory would be very comparable to that,” Harman said. “I’m sure the guys felt the same way when Tiger was winning every tournament that he stepped foot on. “It feels like right now that if Scottie shows up with anything above a ‘B’ game he’s probably going to be right there. He’s been so consistent. “He works extremely hard. I can remember at The Players this year he had just won Bay Hill the day before and Monday afternoon he’s out just, I mean, golf ball after golf ball after golf ball, working, working, working. So, he’s very dedicated to it. He’s got a great mental approach to the game.” Harman is one of those who is trying to close that gap. He remains 10th in the Official World Golf Ranking, but Harman is coming off a missed cut at the Masters, the second time he has failed to reach the weekend in his past three starts. – Field Level Media PIN HIGH Scheffler’s trajectory ‘comparable’ to Tiger’s dominance ‘No rumours about me’ IF another wave of players defecting for LIV Golf is on the horizon, it isn’t going to include Matt Fitzpatrick. On the same day Rory McIlroy denied reports of an US$850m (RM4b) offer from the Saudi Arabian-backed league and with rumours swirling about a potential defection by Viktor Hovland, Fitzpatrick reiterated that he has no intention of signing with LIV. “There’s been no rumours about me,” Fitzpatrick said yesterday ahead of his title defense at the RBC Heritage. “For me, I want to stay out of it. I don’t really have any interest. I want to play tournaments like obviously the RBC Heritage, I want to play The Players Championship, I want to go and play BMW Wentworth. That’s what’s important to me, that’s what I want to go do and that’s what I’ll continue to do.” Masters ratings drop THE Masters was not a big hit with television viewers as the CBS audience dropped by nearly 23%. Sunday’s final round averaged 9.589 million viewers, down from 12.058 million for the 2023 Masters. Sports Media Watch said it was the least-watched Masters since 1993 if you take out the Covid-19 years of 2020 and 2021. Scottie Scheffler won his second green jacket in three years on Sunday but there wasn’t any suspense as he completed his round as a four-stroke winner. Sunday’s final-round viewership topped out at 12.562 million viewers. CBS averaged 8.21 million viewers for its two-day weekend coverage, down from 8.99 million last year. Spain’s Jon Rahm won the 2023 Masters. Stenson not losing sleep over Ryder Cup future SWEDEN’S Henrik Stenson is happy to sit back and wait for the DP World Tour to make a decision on his Ryder Cup future, the former British Open champion said yesterday. Stenson was due to captain Team Europe at last year’s Ryder Cup, but was stripped of the role after agreeing to sign up for the Saudi-backed LIV Golf circuit in 2022. He was replaced by Luke Donald, who led Team Europe to victory over the US in Rome. In recent months, there have been calls from top players, such as four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, for the DP World Tour to rewrite the rules on eligibility for the Ryder Cup so LIV players can qualify for the biennial team competition. “There’s decisions that need to be made in the next five or six months, from the DP World Tour or Ryder Cup Europe, in terms of eligibility,” Stenson told reporters ahead of the 2024 Saudi Open. “With Jon (Rahm) and Tyrrell (Hatton) and (Adrian) Meronk joining LIV as well, I’m sure they’ve got some figuring out to do on how to get all these things together. The rest of us, we just sit back. It’s been an interesting time over the last two years. I’m not really spending my time or my sleep trying to figure out somebody else’s strategy or conclusions.” Rafael Nadal returns the ball to Flavio Cobolli (not pictured) during their ATP Barcelona Open singles match at the Real Club de Tenis in Barcelona. – AFPPIX
SPORTS SPORTS THURSDAY | APR 18, 2024 29 ATALANTA have a chance to make history on Friday (3am) as they welcome Liverpool to Bergamo with one foot in the Europa League semifinals thanks to a stunning first-leg win at Anfield. Atalanta once again punched way above their weight last week by dishing out a 3-0 hammering to Liverpool and are on the verge of reaching the last four of a European competition for the first time since 1988. Last week’s win in England was probably the greatest European night in Atalanta’s history as their run to 2020 Champions League quarterfinals – where they were desperately unlucky to lose to Paris SaintGermain – came at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic which devastated Bergamo. Atalanta’s recent form has been patchy with three wins in 11 matches, and throwing away a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 with struggling Verona on Monday reminded coach Gian Piero Gasperini of the dangers of complacency. “Verona managed to score two goals against us in four minutes so we need to be careful. Liverpool are a team that came back from three goals down in a Champions League final against a team of greats,“ said Gasperini to Sky Sport yesterday. “We know that nothing has been decided and that we will have to play really well.” A historically small club playing in the shadow of – and competing for fans with – the Milanese giants down the road, Atalanta have reached new heights since Gasperini took over as coach in 2016. Should Atalanta get through they will face one of Benfica or Marseille, missing out on a clash with one of two other Italian teams left in the competition or newlycrowned German champions Bayer Leverkusen, who are heavy favourites to get past West Ham. – AFP J URGEN KLOPP was headed for a glorious send-off in his final season at Liverpool just a few weeks ago, but talk of a potential quadruple is now long forgotten as the Reds have come off the rails. Liverpool have a mountain to climb if they are to make the Europa League semifinals on Friday (3am) after losing the first leg of their last-eight tie at home to Atalanta 3-0. Klopp’s men were also dumped out the FA Cup by Manchester United last month as the Red Devils edged a thrilling tie 4-3 at Old Trafford. Liverpool failed to learn their lesson from that defeat as they were held 2-2 by United three weeks later and then stunned 1-0 at home by Crystal Palace in their last two Premier League games to fall two points behind Manchester City in the title race. Liverpool’s habit of fighting back from losing positions was lauded earlier in the campaign as a sign of the “mentality monsters” Klopp has created throughout his time at Anfield. They have amassed 27 points after falling behind in the Premier League alone this season, but saw their luck run out against Palace on Sunday after another slow start. To compound a run of nine games without a clean sheet, L i v e r p o o l ’ s forward line has also gone off the boil come the business end of the season. In their last six league games, the 19- time English champions have scored nine goals from a total of 149 shots, a conversion rate of 6%, which would be the worst in the Premier League over the course of a season. The quest for the quadruple could now be coming back to haunt Klopp as Liverpool look to have run out of steam. They have already played 51 games this season and will have a minimum of seven more before the end of the campaign. A number of academy graduates stepped up during an injury crisis in the early months of 2024 and helped ensure Klopp did at least secure some silverware in his final season by winning the League Cup in February. Yet, just as they are getting major players back with Alisson Becker and Trent Alexander-Arnold returning along with Diogo Jota in the past week, those that have been relied on most during the winter months are fading. Klopp admitted after the Palace match that midfield duo Alexis Mac Allister and Wataru Endo are struggling due to the burden placed upon them. “A couple of players had to play a lot and a couple of players always were interrupted – that’s a bit the situation,“ said Klopp. “We just have to make sure that we don’t think about where we are coming from – whether they are injured or whether they are not – and make sure we find a way to beat the specific opponent in front of us. It’s always like this.” – AFP Burnt out Reds Klopp’s farewell at risk of fizzling out Atalanta ready to deal fatal blow to Liverpool Pochettino threatens to axe Chelsea duo CHELSEA manager Mauricio Pochettino has issued a stern warning to Nicolas Jackson and Noni Madueke, threatening to cut them from the team after their attempt to overstep four-goal hero Cole Palmer during a penalty-taking incident. During Chelsea’s thumping of a poor Everton side, which saw a barrage of six goals from the Blues, the fantastic performance by Palmer was overshadowed when his teammates, Jackson and Madueke, engaged in an on-field tug-of-war with him. The dispute occurred when refereeing official Paul Tierney granted Chelsea’s 14th penalty of the season as they were impressively ahead at 4-0. Pochettino was incensed when Jackson and Madueke, disregarding the fact that regular taker Palmer holds a flawless record, tried to seize the opportunity for themselves. Pochettino expressed his fury about the incident: “I told them this is the last time I accept this type of behaviour. Next time those involved in a situation like this are all out. This is not a joke.” Despite the heated disagreement, Palmer took a more relaxed stance towards the penalty-kick controversy, noting: “Other players wanted to take it, which was understandable. “But I am the penalty taker and wanted to take it. We’re just trying to show everyone that we want to take responsibility. Maybe it was over the top a bit, the argument. We were laughing and joking about it.” Pochettino suggested the disagreement wouldn’t influence his team selection for Saturday’s FA Cup semifinal against Manchester City at Wembley “We are like in a school. They are kids and they need to learn.” But he warned:, “But if they don’t learn, yes we will take some decisions.” – Express Newspapers Postecoglou hits back after Dier comment TOTTENHAM manager Ange Postecoglou has hit back at claims that he “does no tactical work”. Ex-Spurs defender Eric Dier recently claimed that the Aussie boss’ training style focused on how he wants his team to play, regardless of opposition. Postecoglou has impressed with how he has taken to life in north London. The ex-Celtic boss has transformed the club into an attacking, highenergy team that looks capable of pushing for silverware with the right investment in certain areas. Tottenham still appear to have their weaknesses defensively, conceding four goals against Newcastle over the weekend. However, despite their frailties, Postecoglou has responded to suggestions that he does not conduct “tactical” work on the training ground. Earlier this month, former Tottenham star Dier told The Overlap: “Interestingly, he really doesn’t do any tactical work (in training). What he does is, every single training drill from Monday to Friday is drawn up to represent the way that he wants to play.” Postecoglou was taken aback when quizzed on how he would respond to such claims, to which he replied: “I would probably say we don’t do anything apart from tactical work. “That’s all we do every day. If we’re working on our fitness, we’re still trying to play our football. “If you’re talking about do we do training where we’re standing around and working on how we’re going to stop an opposition, no we don’t do that. But I don’t think that’s the only kind of tactical work that exists. Anyone who trains with us will tell you that all we do is train the way we play. Maybe that’s not tactical work, I don’t know!” – Express Newspapers Alonso honoured, wants more silverware XABI ALONSO said it was an honour to manage Bayer Leverkusen to their first Bundesliga title after the runaway leaders clinched the trophy in style with a 5-0 victory over Werder Bremen. Leverkusen were crowned German champions for the first time in their 120-year history with a dominant win which saw Florian Wirtz net a second-half hat-trick at an ecstatic BayArena. Victor Boniface had opened the scoring from the penalty spot before Granit Xhaka doubled the lead with a long-range effort. Alonso, who committed his future to Leverkusen after being linked with former clubs Liverpool and Bayern Munich earlier this season, lauded the “special” achievement after winning his first major trophy in management. “This success is special for everyone, for the entire club. It belongs to so many people,” the 42- year-old Spaniard said after the match, as reported by Kicker. “We have to enjoy winning this for the entire club. The first championship in 120 years. It’s an honour to be part of it and working here. Today we deserve to celebrate, with family, friends and fans.” Leverkusen remain unbeaten during a fairytale campaign which could yet yield even more silverware. They hold a 2-0 first-leg lead over West Ham in the Europa League quarterfinals – the second leg takes place in London on Friday (3am) – and also have a DFB Pokal final against Kaiserslautern to look forward to next month. “It may not be the last party of the current season,” Alonso added. “We want more. We still have a big goal in the Europa League. We have a good chance to be in the semifinals and also in the cup, the feeling is incredible.” Leverkusen’s success ends Bayern’s 11-year reign as German champions, with Borussia Dortmund back in 2012 the last team to deny them top spot. Bayern, who are currently a massive 16 points behind Leverkusen after a largely disappointing season for Thomas Tuchel’s side, were quick to applaud the new title winners. “Congratulations to Bayer Leverkusen on a historic first Bundesliga title in the club’s history,” Bayern president Herbert Hainer said. “The title goes absolutely deservedly to Leverkusen – it’s the reward for an outstanding season and great football. Bayern chief executive Jan-Christian Dreesen added: “They’ve had a flawless season so far, the team have demonstrated courage, class and above all consistency, and that’s why they deserve to be 2024 German champions.” – The Independent/Agencies █ BY REUBEN ROSSO-POWELL Bayer Leverkusen’s head coach Xabi Alonso celebrates after the Bundesliga match against Bayer Leverkusen. – AFPPIX

German masterclass Dortmund sink Atletico to reach Champions League semifinals BORUSSIA DORTMUND fought back to beat Atletico Madrid 4-2 in their quarterfinal second leg yesterday, securing a 5-4 aggregate victory and a first Champions League semifinal since 2013. Trailing 2-1 from the first leg, goals from Julian Brandt and Ian Maatsen had Dortmund 2-0 up at halftime. Maatsen, 22, signed a contract extension with parent club Chelsea in January before joining Dortmund on loan until the end of the season. The Dutchman had been playing Championship football this time last year while on loan at Burnley. “I always had the belief to play for Chelsea but unfortunately for some reasons it didn’t work out,” he said. “But, now I am here, I am very grateful for this opportunity. I came here to experience at the highest level and play my game and today I think I showed a very good performance.” Visiting coach Diego Simeone made three changes at the break, including bringing on Angel Correa and his energy told immediately, Mats Hummels conceding a poor own goal before the Argentine netted to put Atletico back ahead in the tie. But those goals brought a sluggish Dortmund back to life, with Niclas Fuellkrug and Marcel Sabitzer each scoring in a three-minute period to send the Bundesliga club through. “It was magical. I try not to go overboard in interviews, but it was really magical. The stadium was on fire today,” Fuellkrug told DAZN. F o r m e r w i n n e r s Dortmund, fifth in the German top flight and struggling to qualify for next season’s Champions League, will next face Paris Saint-Germain for a place in the final at Wembley on June 1. “We did give them chances and goals in the 15 minutes after half-time, we have to improve that for sure, but our response to it was sensational,” said Brandt. “It’s a big deal for our club,” Dortmund coach Edin Terzic said before thanking the fans and looking ahead to the upcoming clash with PSG. “Extremely happy, extremely satisfied and very, very proud of the team and the club. The atmosphere in the stadium was extraordinarily good. “There were again two moments that hurt us and could’ve tipped the balance, but we never lost our belief and stuck with what makes us strong. “If you watch both matches, we deservedly reached the semifinals. It’s a big deal for our club.” Looking ahead to the semifinals against French giants PSG, Terzic said: “We’ve already played them twice. We didn’t like the first game in Paris at all. “The second match in Dortmund was very different, close once again, but we managed to get closer to victory than they did. “We’re a much more solid team than we were in September or even December.” Atletico were bidding to reach the last four for the first time in seven years, but fell at the quarterfinal stage for the third time in five seasons. “It was tough,” Atletico captain Koke told Movistar. “Their goals hurt a lot – the fact that they got them so quickly after each other. “We are angry because we wanted to get through. This is football and it can be cruel.” – AFP/Agencies ‘We’ve got one goal: Wembley’ one goal: Wembley’ STRIKER Niclas Fullkrug yesterday backed Borussia Dortmund for a return to Wembley, 11 years after the club last reached the Champions League final at the same stadium. Dortmund beat Atletico Madrid 4-2 in the second leg of their quarterfinal, coming from behind twice in the tie to progress 5-4 on aggregate to the last four, where they will face Paris SaintGermain. Fullkrug’s brilliant second-half header brought Dortmund level in the tie, just three minutes before Marcel Sabitzer scored the hosts’ decisive fourth goal. Describing the night as “magical”, Fuellkrug savoured moving into the semifinals, but said Dortmund were not finished. “We’ve got one goal: Wembley.” Fuellkrug was playing seconddivision football with Werder Bremen two seasons ago and made the move to Dortmund this past August. “We’re playing in a Champions League semifinal. For someone like me I think it’s a little more special, there’s a few others here who experienced that before.” Under coach Jurgen Klopp, Dortmund made it to the final in 2013, where they lost to rivals Bayern Munich 2-1. Defender Mats Hummels and Marco Reus are the two remaining Dortmund players from that match, while defender Niklas Suele won the Champions League with Bayern in 2020. “The atmosphere, the energy on the field, was extreme. We knew from the first minute that nobody was going to give an inch,” said Fuellkrug. “We were crazy aggressive. That’s something we need to take with us for the coming weeks.” Dortmund played PSG in the group stage, losing 2-0 in Paris before drawing 1-1 at home to top the section. “We played well at home against them but not away. We want to do better – and of course reach the final,” said midfielder Julian Brandt, who opened the scoring yesterday. – AFP Dortmund’s Julian Brandt (bottom) celebrates scoring their first goal with Jadon Sancho. – REUTERSPIX

Pearly, 24, said they are devising a strategy with the coaching staff to detect the weakness and strength of playing patterns by analysing video clips. “The coach has discussed with us about the same mistakes based on the previous few games. In the first game we we were leading, but were less consistent and then lost. “We are looking for a way to solve the problem. (Regarding training abroad), we have not heard anything from the coaches because they are focusing on the players competing in the 2024 Uber Cup,” she said after undergoing a training session at the Malaysian Badminton Academy recently. Asked if the pair will choose the number of tournaments to participate in before going to the Olympics, Pearly said all those will be decided by the coaching staff who “certainly know better our level of ability on court”. The Kedahan said that the Malaysian Masters 2024 which will take place from May 21 to 26 is the only known tournament on their radar thus far. “We are injury-free but need to focus on getting stronger because there are several tournaments with high intensity. “I am ready from the beginning because I want to compete in the Olympics but I need to look after myself physically “The Olympics is the dream of every athlete (including) me since I was a child. I am very happy to compete (in the Olympics) and now I want to focus and hope to deliver the best results,” she said. The 2024 Paris Olympics are scheduled to take place from July 26 to Aug 11. – Bernama Giving up is not in my vocabulary: Mei Xing GIVING UP is not in the vocabulary of national women’s doubles player Teoh Mei Xing who will shoulder the responsibility as a senior athlete competing in the 2024 Uber Cup in Chengdu, China, from April 27 to May 5. The 27-year-old player, however, admitted that she was a little burdened by the absence of the country’s main pair Pearly Tan-M. Thinaah in Chengdu when the 2022 French Open champions chose to focus on preparations for the Olympic Games in Paris from July 26 to Aug 11. “Everyone did their preparation well and focused on the Uber Cup. It’s a bit of pressure but I believe in my teammate’s ability and make the audience enjoy the game; we don’t want to overthink and will give it our all. “Nothing is impossible; we believe we can do it, we just have to fight to the end (and) we have to believe we can go to the quarter-finals. If we feel like giving up, it’s better not to compete at all,” she said after a training session at the Badminton Academy Malaysia recently. Mei Xing said that the central training camp, which started yesterday, will certainly help the singles and doubles players strengthen unity and understanding as they previously had different training times. Commenting on Chengdu, Mei Xing said that she is likely to be paired with Go Pei Kee for the third time after the 2022 Bangladesh International Challenge and the 2023 Malaysia Open. For the 2024 Uber Cup, the Badminton Association of Malaysia also listed Goh Jin Wei, K. Letshanaa, Siti Nurshuhaini Azman, Wong Ling Ching, Siti Zulaikha Azmi, Go Pei Kee, Tan Zhing Yi, Ho Le Ee and Chan Wen Tse who will face a tough task when drawn in Group B with Thailand, Taiwan and Australia. – Bernama HIGH determination and sheer perseverance has kept young goalkeeper Che Shahrul Azmi Che Saufi on track, allaying fears of early premature retirement until now, finally getting a chance to earn his stripes with the national men’s hockey team. The 23-year-old player from Negeri Sembilan revealed that he once felt hopelessly adrift when he could not get a national call-up despite helping the country’s U-18 hockey 5-aside (Hockey 5s) squad win the gold medal at the 2018 Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires, Argentina. “There are many who would have quit, but I know what my standard is, so I kept looking forward to the next tournaments,” he said during a training session with the “Speedy Tigers” at Bukit Jalil National Hockey Stadium. Sticking to that grit, Che Shahrul continued his passion to help Malaysia win the silver medal at the World Cup Hockey 5s in Oman earlier this year, in addition to a sterling run in his 2024 Malaysian Hockey League debut to help Nurinsafi Sporting finish in fourth place. This managed to attract the attention of manager Sarjit Singh to finally call him to join the Speedy Tigers training camp last month. This is the first time he has been called up to the senior training squad and Che Shahrul believes he can make it to the final 18-player list for the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup (May 4-11) squad in Ipoh out of 30 players who are in training camp now. He faces stiff competition from experienced players such as Muhammad Hafizuddin Othman, Muhamad Zaimi Mat Deris and Adrian Andy Albert to grab two goalkeeper positions for the invitational tournament. Sarjit will announce the squad to defend the Sultan Azlan Shah Cup on May 1, after the friendly match against New Zealand in Ipoh. – Bernama CHAMPIONS LEAGUE (Quarterfinals, 2nd leg): Borussia Dortmund 4 (Brandt 34, Maatsen 39, Fuellkrug 71, Sabitzer 74) Atletico Madrid 2 (Hummels 49-og, Correa 64) – Dortmund win 5-4 on agg, Barcelona 1 (Raphinha 12) Paris Saint-Germain 4 (Dembele 40, Vitinha 54, Mbappe 61-pen, 89) – PSG win 6-4 on agg.

In expressing its gratitude to the Regent of Johor, Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim, for agreeing to donate hybrid grass for the returfing of the pitch at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium, PSM said it is committed to managing a multipurpose field for sporting and nonsporting events. “PSM wishes to express its happiness and gratitude to Tunku Ismail for his consideration and wisdom in advising PSM,” it said in a statement yesterday. According to a post on the Johor Southern Tigers official Facebook page, Tunku Ismail agreed to donate hybrid grass to SNBJ following a meeting with Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh and Asian Football Confederation (AFC) secretary-general Windsor John. Tunku Ismail agreed to do so after a study showed that hybrid grass is more durable and flexible, and would better suit the stadium’s hosting of both sporting and non-sporting events. Based on that and the results of a study conducted by the Johor Darul Ta’azim Football Club (JDT), Tunku Ismail agreed to donate hybrid grass currently being laid at the Tan Sri Dato’ Haji Hassan Yunos Stadium for use in the National Stadium, read the post. The national stadium’s current pitch, laid with Zeon Zoysia grass previously donated by Tunku Ismail, will be rolled off and installed at the National Sports Council field at KL Sports City. Tunku Ismail, who owns JDT, had previously gifted the Zeon Zoysia grass to replace the original cow grass pitch at the National Stadium. – Bernama Sheer grit helps Che Shahrul keep tight grip on goal Che Shahrul Azmi Che Saufi. – BERNAMAPIX

Trailing 3-2 from last week’s clash in Paris, Luis Enrique’s PSG fell further behind in the tie when Raphinha turned in Lamine Yamal’s cross in the 12th minute. But a red card for Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo was the turning point, with Dembele bringing PSG back into the quarterfinal as he fired home shortly before halftime. Vitinha brought the visitors level on aggregate before Kylian Mbappe struck twice, converting a penalty and then applying the fatal blow a minute from time to complete a 6-4 aggregate victory. “Everyone believed we could do it, even though we lost 3-2 in the first leg. We didn’t throw in the towel. We knew we would score goals here. The whole team did a great job,” Dembele told Canal Plus. “We have done a lot of work tactically all week and the coach’s tactics were perfect. We saw in the game, even though we lost the first goal, we didn’t give up. We kept believing because we had to win the match.” It was the first time in club history PSG had won a Champions League tie after losing the first leg at home. Their reward will be a meeting with another of Dembele’s former sides, Borussia Dortmund, who overcame Atletico Madrid 5-4 on aggregate after winning 4-2 at home yesterday. “It was a great effort. Everyone was exceptional throughout the whole game. I saw that Borussia Dortmund got through and there’s another club I played for,” said Dembele, who shrugged off a frosty reception in Barcelona. “I had a great evening. Being booed by the Barcelona fans is not going to affect me. I gave everything. I scored and won a penalty, so I am pleased with my performance.” Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez claimed the referee’s decision to send Araujo off in the 29th minute for pulling down Bradley Barcola on the edge of the box was “unnecessary” and ended the club’s hopes. “It’s a shame that the work of a whole season ends here because of a refereeing decision,” Xavi told Movistar. “This dismissal is unnecessary.” Xavi was sent off for a show of dissent on the sideline as Barcelona lost their heads in the second half and he criticised Romanian referee Istvan Kovacs. “The referee was very bad, I told him, he didn’t understand the game,” said the coach. Araujo’s red card led Xavi to take off 16-yearold winger Lamine Yamal, who created Barcelona’s opening goal, with Inigo Martinez coming on to fill the hole in defence. “We’re angry, the red card defines the tie,” continued Xavi. “We were well organised, for me it’s too much to give a red card, from there it’s another tie. “We had doubts about whether to take off Lamine, he was doing well – that moment completely defined the tie. “I would have liked to have played 11 vs 11 against Luis Enrique and against PSG (for) all the minutes of the game. “We know that there are sendings off in football but I believe that this one (for Araujo) was unnecessary.” But ex-striker Thierry Henry thinks the chaos was all Barcelona’s own making. “You can’t make mistakes in the Champions League,” Henry told CBS. “If you make mistakes, you pay the price straight away and that’s why it is so hard to win that competition because you cannot make one mistake. “Barcelona deserved to go down to 10 men. That penalty was a penalty. That doesn’t mean you have to concede those goals,” he added. “The goals they conceded weren’t because they were playing with 10 men. It was because they started to panic. You cannot win any title or be champions when you panic. I don’t care who you are.” – AFP/Agencies -Story on page 30 German masterclass PSG’s Kylian Mbappe (centre) celebrates scoring his second goal and his team’s fourth goal with teammates during the Champions League quarterfinal second leg match against Barcelona yesterday. – AFPPIX Never any doubt of overturning first-leg deficit, says Dembele after PSG stun Barcelona THURSDAY | APR 18, 2024
