Leverkusen now have more ‘hunger’ for Cup final

Borussia Dortmund midfielder Marcel Sabitzer was denied a hat trick on Saturday when his penalty kick against Borussia Monchengladbach was cancelled by the video assistant referee (VAR) after he had scored from it.

Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes came off the bench to score twice and help Portugal kick off their Euro 2024 preparation with a 4-2 win over non-qualifiers Finland on Tuesday in Lisbon.

Spain coach Luis de la Fuente said after winning Euro 2024: “We’ve caught up with the demands of modern football.” Now a new era of dominance beckons.
