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.

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:

16-year-old swimmer breaks Michael Phelps' record at 2025 US Swimming Championships
A 16-year-old swimmer has put himself on the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics radar after shattering a record at the 2025 U.S. Swimming Championships on Wednesday that was previously held by Michael Phelps. Whenever Phelps' name comes into play in the pool, you know it's an amazing feat considering the American's 28 Olympic medals (23 gold), which is an all-time record. But Luka Mijatovic took a record away from Phelps after posting a 200-meter freestyle time of 1:45.92, which not only shattered the 15-16 age group record (1:47.29), but also the 17-18 age group held by Phelps. Phelps swam it at 1:45.99, but Mijatovic just beat him out on his final lap. The Summer Olympics' return to Los Angeles is still three years away, but Mijatovic is certainly someone to watch after his performance. Mijatovic has been building himself up to this moment, having finished first in both the 500-yard freestyle and 200-yard freestyle at the California Interscholastic Federation State Championships in May. He's one of the top-ranked high school swimmers, and he currently ranks first in the state of California. The high schooler was surrounded by some Olympians already at the Swimming Championships, which began on Tuesday. Torri Huske, Bobby Finke, who already won the event's men's 1500-meter freestyle, and the accomplished Katie Ledecky were among those competing in Indianapolis. These championships are for swimmers to earn a spot in the World Championships, which will be held in Singapore in July and August.
