Ronaldo breaks Germany jinx as Portugal reach Nations League final
Cristiano Ronaldo (2nd R) is swamped by his teammates after scoring the winner for Portugal in their 2-1 Nations League semi-final victory over Germany (Alexandra BEIER) Cristiano Ronaldo scored the winner in a 2-1 victory over Germany in Munich on Wednesday, sending Portugal through to the Nations League final and breaking his run of bad fortune against the Germans. Ronaldo's 68th-minute tap in, a record-extending 137th international goal, sealed a first win over Germany after five losses, his longest streak against any national side without tasting victory. Advertisement After a stuttering first half, Florian Wirtz produced a moment of magic to give Germany the lead three minutes after halftime, starting and finishing a clever burst through the middle and heading in the opener. Portugal's Francisco Conceicao ran 35 metres to score a brilliant solo goal, levelling things up with half an hour remaining. The stage was then set for Ronaldo, who had missed two solid chances earlier, to land the telling blow, turning in a Nuno Mendes pass from close range. Portugal, winners of the inaugural Nations League in 2019, will now face either European champions Spain or France in Sunday's final at the same venue. Advertisement The loss is a setback for Julian Nagelsmann's Germany, who had lost just one of their previous 17 games. Portugal had four players backing up from winning Saturday's Champions League final -- and the ensuing celebrations -- but it was Germany who struggled to find rhythm early. The match started 10 minutes late due to a violent storm which left hailstones scattered across the turf. Aleksandar Pavlovic mislaid several passes while Portugal's approach of pressing Jonathan Tah almost paid dividends, with the defender insecure in possession. Ronaldo, greeted by Portuguese cheers and German boos every time he came near the ball, almost scored the opener six minutes in, but his shot was claimed by old La Liga sparring partner Marc-Andre ter Stegen, playing his first match for Germany since September 2024. Advertisement - Wirtz opener - Germany's best chance of the opening half fell to debutant Nick Woltemade with 18 minutes gone, but the 1.98-metre-tall striker's low shot was well saved by Diogo Costa. Ronaldo was inches away from giving Portugal the lead when the visitors broke immediately after halftime, but he was unable to get enough of his boot on a clever Nuno Mendes cross with an open goal beckoning. Germany took less than a minute to punish the miss. Wirtz tiptoed down the left side, attracting three defenders before laying off for Joshua Kimmich. The German captain chipped it over the Portugal defence and back to Wirtz, who expertly guided a low header into the bottom right corner. Advertisement Both sides made three changes on the 60-minute mark but it was Roberto Martinez whose substitutions had the telling impact. Five minutes after coming on, Conceicao shed Robin Gosens with a shimmy near the half-way line and advanced goalwards before unleashing a superb curling shot past the desperate fingers of Ter Stegen. Ronaldo then put Portugal in front, nervelessly tapping in a Nuno Mendes pass to make up for his previous misses - his 137th goal for Portugal in his 219th international. Munich-born Karim Adeyemi rattled the crossbar with eight minutes remaining but Germany could not find an equaliser and will need to be content with a third-placed match in Stuttgart on Sunday. dwi/bsp

Cristiano Ronaldo leads Portugal to Nations League final with 2-1 win over Germany
Associated Press MUNICH (AP) — Cristiano Ronaldo scored again as Portugal came from behind to beat Germany 2-1 in their Nations League semifinal on Wednesday. The 40-year-old Ronaldo captained Portugal and scored his 137th international goal five minutes after substitute Francisco Conceicao equalized with a blistering shot inside the far post in the 63rd. Ronaldo became the oldest player to ever score against Germany. Liverpool target Florian Wirtz had given the home team a 48th-minute lead with a perfectly placed header inside the right post, but Portugal coach Roberto Martínez made his changes count as he brought on Conceição and Champions League winner Vitinha among the substitutes. Vitinha was playing just four days after helping Paris Saint-Germain win the Champions League final against Inter Milan on Saturday. France plays Spain in Stuttgart on Thursday in the other semifinal. ___ AP soccer:

Inter Milan & Como Manager Set For Crunch Talks In London, Genoa Coach Remains Plan B
A crunch meeting between Inter Milan and Cesc Fabregas is about to take place in London in the coming hours. Per Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the parties will meet for showdown talks tonight, with the Nerazzurri still hoping to close the deal. Advertisement Indeed, Beppe Marotta has identified Fabregas as Simone Inzaghi's successor at Stadio San Siro. However, the 38-year-old Spaniard has turned down Inter's approach as he intends to stay at Como. Despite the initial rejection, the Serie A giants haven't lost hope of convincing the Spaniard to change his mind. Inter Milan & Cesc Fabregas Set for Showdown Talks in London VERONA, ITALY – MAY 18: Cesc Fabregas, Como manager, looks on before kick off at the Serie A match between Verona and Como at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi on May 18, 2025 in Verona, Italy. (Photo by) Cesc Fabregas remains Inter's primary target to replace Inzaghi. Yet, the former Arsenal midfielder seems determined to stay at Como after admitting he 'believes in the project.' Tonight could be Inter's last chance to get Fabregas' go-ahead. Advertisement Otherwise, they'll likely turn to other options, considering time is becoming a factor. Indeed, Inter will take part in the FIFA Club World Cup in a fortnight. Therefore, the appointment of a new manager is the highest priority. With that in mind, the hypothesis of Patrick Vieira's return to San Siro has started to pick up momentum. Inter may go after the Frenchman in charge of Genoa, whose €500,000 release clause shouldn't be a problem.
