Bale: Champions League win a dream come true

Gareth Bale hailed Real Madrid's Champions League win as a "dream come true" after scoring in the 4-1 win over Atletico Madrid at Estadio da Luz.

Real fell behind to an early Diego Godin goal but fought back, with Sergio Ramos forcing extra-time with a last-minute header before Bale later made it 2-1 and Marcelo and Cristiano Ronaldo rounded off the rout.

And, speaking after the game, the Welshman insisted that "it doesn't come any bigger" than winning European football's biggest prize.

He told Sky Sports: "This is what every footballer dreams of, winning the Champions League - it doesn't come any bigger than that in club football."

Bale also claimed he never felt any doubt that Real would go on to clinch victory, despite Godin handing Diego Simeone's side the lead.

"We've played against Atletico four times already this season and every game is very close and very difficult,” he added. “When they do get a goal ahead it's hard to break them down. Luckily we managed to get a goal in stoppage time and that gave us the momentum.

"We've been showing that all season. When we play our own football we win football games and it was literally just keep attacking, keep doing what we do best and we all believed in that and we all believed if we kept doing that we'd win.

"It was an unbelievable feeling [lifting the trophy] - one you can't describe and yeah, it'll be a memory forever and it'll be great to see it in future years.”

And Bale also laughed off suggestions that his goal paid back his £85m price-tag, adding: "For me, the price tag means nothing. If I came here for a penny I wanted to play well.

“This is why I came to the club, to play in big competitions and win trophies like we have this season. Obviously the move has paid off this year and we want to win more now."

Big teams cannot be satisfied just with one title' - Pellegrini & Kompany strive to improve Manchester City

  Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini and captain Vincent Kompany have both vowed to build on the club's Premier League triumph.

City clinched their second title in three years on Sunday afternoon thanks to a 2-0 victory over West Ham at the Etihad Stadium, adding to their Capital One Cup victory in March.

The club finished 11 points behind rivals Manchester United last season as they failed to successfully defend their 2011-12 title under Roberto Mancini, and both men are determined not to repeat past mistakes.

"Well of course I think that big teams cannot be satisfied just with one title," Pellegrini told Sky Sports. "It’s very important to win one or two titles in a year, we must celebrate today and tomorrow and on Tuesday start to work for next season because this club and these players deserve more titles.

"It’s special, because my first year here in England is not easy to be accustomed to English football but I think I manage a great group of players, a great institution, and our great fans."

Kompany, who settled any lingering nerves by scoring his side's second goal shortly after half-time, backed up his manager's message and vowed to turn City into a "big" club.

"We're building a club, not just a team that wins trophies every now and again, we're building a club," he said. 

"The past is the past but surely we'll have our place in the future. That's why I'm excited to be here, that's why every single year I have a feeling that we need to be better, and next year we have to be even better. 

"This has to transpire through to the whole club. If we want to be a big club then this should be one of so many. It will take a lot of work but people are ready for it."

Kompany also insisted that he is realising his chilhood dreams as City captain: "The way we finished this season is a credit to how we've always prepared, every single game and how we've always believed in ourselves. [I am] extremely happy and this is for the fans. 

"Forget about the money, forget about everything. As a kid you grow up and all your dream of is playing games, winning games and lifting trophies. That's what I've dreamed of. Not the rest, I've dreamed of lifting trophies. I feel like I'm achieving that dream by doing this."

Premier League: Man City boss Manuel Pellegrini expects title after Aston Villa win

Manuel Pellegrini is confident Manchester City will become Premier League champions after beating Aston Villa 4-0.

It took City until the 64th minute to break the deadlock at the Etihad Stadium but they ran out convincing winners as Edin Dzeko struck twice and then Stevan Jovetic and Yaya Toure netted late on.

The result leaves City two points ahead of Liverpool ahead of their final game of the season, against West Ham United on Sunday, and a draw will be enough due to their superior goal difference.

While he is refusing to get carried away, Pellegrini is now allowing himself to think about winning the title.

He said: "Now we can talk about the title because if we win the next game we are going to win the title.

"We could not do the same before this game because we had to beat Aston Villa.


Pellegrini - Job not done
"Of course I expect to win the title because now we are top of the table.

"It has been a strange season maybe because we were never top of the table.

"Everyone said we were favourites but we were nine points behind Liverpool and eight points behind Chelsea.

"We had three games in hand but we must win all those games. Now we are top of the table and I hope we are not going to lose next Sunday."

Pellegrini says that he urged his men at half-time to keep their patience and not become frustrated at having to play against a defensive-minded Villa side.

"It was a very big test because it was not an easy game. We know that we had to win and I think the team played very, very well," he told Sky Sports.

"We were very patient in the first half. They had just one chance to score.

"It is not easy to play against a team with 10 defenders but I spoke to the players and told them to continue the way they were going because I thought we were doing very well.


Man City on the brink
"I was absolutely sure that we were going to score and now we have to win our last game to win the title."

City needed two late goals against Queens Park Rangers to clinch the title in 2012 but Pellegrini is hopeful that his side will not endure quite such an anxious afternoon against West Ham before becoming champions.

He is aware that no opponent can be taken for granted but says it is a very different situation.

"I didn't see the game. It was another team playing another way so I don't think about that," he explained.

"QPR against Manchester City or Crystal Palace against Liverpool, with so many years in football you know that every game counts and every team can win any game.

"I think that now it is another team and another way of managing the team."

bayen munich lost at home 4-0

MUNICH - Sergio Ramos has his redemption, Cristiano Ronaldo has his goal record and Real Madrid is one win away from the long-awaited "Decima."
Real Madrid carried out coach Carlo Ancelotti's game plan to perfection and routed title holder Bayern Munich 4-0 on Tuesday to reach its first Champions League final in 12 years. Madrid will play either Chelsea or city rival Atletico Madrid in the May 24 final in Lisbon.
Madrid, a 5-0 aggregate winner over Bayern, will be seeking a record 10th title — "La Decima" in Spanish.
"We played a perfect game in the first half, we defended very well and pressed very high," Ancelotti said. "We used the space we had for counters, with some great passing."
Madrid had never won in Munich in 10 previous matches, losing nine of them. But this time, Ancelotti's team put its stamp on the game early and struck with awesome efficiency — something its Italian coach had promised ahead of the match.
Madrid's sweeping, fast counterattacks paced by Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale and Angel Di Maria, along with its tenacious tackling when Bayern tried to come out of the hosts' own half, were a huge problem for Bayern's defence. However, the first two goals came from set pieces, as well as the last.
Ramos, who missed the crucial penalty when Madrid lost to Bayern at the same stage in 2012 in a shootout, scored those first two goals and Ronaldo added two more to break the Champions League season record with a tally of 16.
Ramos headed the first from a corner taken by Luka Modric in the 16th and nodded in the second four minutes later after a free kick from Angel Di Maria.
"We prepared the set pieces and we used them to make things easy for us," Ancelotti said. "We knew they defend with a zone, not man to man."
Ronaldo made it 3-0 to Madrid in the 34th minute after a perfectly executed counterattack and completed the victory with a free kick in the 89th as he shattered Barcelona star Lionel Messi's record of 14 goals in a season.
"Goals are great, satisfying on a personal level, but what matters is what we did as a team. The overall result was deserved," Ramos said. "It's a dream come true. It's a dream game, fantastic for all Madrid fans."
After the final whistle, Madrid players put on T-shirts with the words 'Now for the 10th'.
It was a bitter defeat for Bayern coach Pep Guardiola, who had enjoyed so much success against Madrid when he was in charge of Barcelona. Bayern was seeking to become the first team to defend the Champions League title but instead slumped to its worst home defeat in the competition, and equaled its heaviest loss overall — 4-0 away to Barcelona in 2009.
Guardiola bemoaned the lack of possession in the first half — although UEFA statistics show Bayern had two-thirds of possession for the game.
"We didn't have ball possession and that's why we had no control," Guardiola said.
"It's a great disappointment. 0-4 sounds very bitter," Bayern captain Philipp Lahm said. "We wanted a lot, but we failed tactically in the first half."
Madrid had lost three consecutive semifinals, including a 2012 shootout when Ramos missed a penalty. Of five previous semifinal series against Bayern, Madrid had won only one. Coming into the match, Madrid had only two wins in 27 outings in Germany, with six draws.
But Ancelotti had won with AC Milan in Bavaria and believed he could do it again.
"I'd won here, so that's why I felt confident about our chances here," the Italian said. "After 12 years to return to the Champions League final is very good for us."
Holding midfielder Xabi Alonso will miss Madrid's 13th final because of accumulated yellow cards.
There is a good omen for Madrid: every time it had defeated a title holder, it went on to win the title — in 1998, 2000 and 2002, the last two times getting through past Bayern, it the semifinals and quarterfinals, respectively.
Madrid had won only two of its 27 previous matches in Germany, with six draws, but it has eliminated three German teams this season in succession — Schalke, last season's runner-up Borussia Dortmund and now Bayern.

Man Utd team-mates make it hard for me :Robin Van Persie

Robin van Persie admits he has been forced to adapt his own game but refuses to blame David Moyes after the club's 2-0 defeat to Olympiakos.

Champions League or bust for Moyes & Manchester United

There is no Premier League title to fight for. There is no FA Cup nor even the Capital One Cup any more. Manchester United are down to their last chance for a trophy; the Champions League. Every other avenue of success was shut off. All but this.   David Moyes now needs to be more than a presence on the sidelines who tells observers what is going wrong and makes promises to fix it. His tenure will not be defined by these two fixtures but United's season will be.  OLYMPIAKOS - MAN UTD  PREVIEW: Will Moyes' men leave Greece with a healthy first-leg advantage? ROONEY WANTS SECOND CL TITLE The Manchester United striker is desperate to ensure his 2008 triumph is not his last"All they have left is to give their all against us in the Champions League," Olympiakos midfielder David Fuster said earlier this month. "This game is their only chance to save the season. They have failed in the league. They are located outside the Champions League places. And so they will give it all."

Kelantan to promote "Visit Malaysia" as part of RM1 Million deal

2013 FA Cup champions, Kelantan have received a whopping RM1 Million sponsorship from the Ministry of Tourism and Culture as part of a deal where they will promote Visit Malaysia during their upcoming AFC Cup campaign. According to Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz, the Minister of Tourism and Culture, he stated that the football scene can be a great medium to promote the tourism industry and as well as helping the Visit Malaysia 2014 campaign, which leads to the sponsorship of Kelantan.  Astro Arena reported that the Red Warriors were chosen because they have showed great performances in every game they have played, which makes them one of the strong forces in the local football scene.  Nazri also explained that the presence of players from other countries in every game and the logo “Visit Malaysia” on their jerseys will help the promotion, including when it appears on television.  He is also confident that this sponsorship can give great returns to the ministry.  Kelantan will take part in AFC Cup for a third season in a row and they have targeted to reach at least the quarter-final of this year’s edition.  According to their President, Tan Sri Annuar Musa, Kelantan must win their group or at least finish inside the top two spots in the group stage.  Kelantan are in the Group G with Yangon United from Myanmar, XM Vissai Ninh Binh from Vietnam and China Pegasus from Hong Kong.  Selangor are the other team from Malaysia in the AFC Cup, with the Red Giants in Group F together with Ha Noi T&T from Vietnam, Arema Indonesia from Indonesia and Maziya S&R from Maldives.

FAM: Referees in Malaysia to use new "communication system".

The Football Association of Malaysia (FAM) has affirmed its intention to boost the quality of refereeing within the country, by ordering a new communication system that will assist them in making decisions during matches.  Plenty has been said about the poor decisions from referees in the Super League, and FAM has now responded to those claims by taking this move.  Speaking to reporters, FAM Secretary General, Datuk Hamidin Mohd Amin said: "We have already ordered the communication system for our referees, in order to improve the quality of decision making on the pitch. We will most likely have it by the end of this month." Besides that, FAM are also keen on experimenting with the idea of having two extra assistant referees on the goalline, and the system could be implemented in the Malaysia Cup if the results prove to be effective.  "We will allow the referee committee to test the system as well as the idea of using four assistant referees instead of two. This method will be trialled in some of the friendly games that will be held this year, and if it's good enough, we will implement it in the Malaysia Cup next August.  "We are aware that this step is not going to entirely solve the problem, but it clearly shows that we are doing our level best to improve the refereeing standards within the nation," Hamidin concluded.
