Sevilla vs Real Madrid 2025 live stream: Time, TV channels and how to watch La Liga online
Real Madrid visit Sevilla's Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan with nothing to play for. Things are different for the Andalusian team, however. After what's been a tough season for Sevilla, they still have to mathematically avoid relegation, meaning that they will surely play with intensity and physicality in their last home game of the season. Ancelotti will be forced to trust the youngsters once again, so it will be interesting to see if they're up to the challenge.

The reinvention of Edin Terzic: ‘Life is painful sometimes – but pain doesn't have to be negative'
A year ago, in June 2024, Edin Terzic stood on the Wembley pitch at the end of the Champions League final and watched his Borussia Dortmund players take their curtain call. Dortmund had lost 2-0 but produced a stirring run on their way to London, knocking out both Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, before taking Real Madrid to their limit in that June 2024 showpiece with a performance of heart and soul. Advertisement But just a few weeks later, Terzic was gone. Believing he had taken the club as far as he could, he resigned as head coach and retreated into the background. Nobody really knows what happened next or what he has been doing since. 'First, I went on holiday,' he tells The Athletic, laughing gently, over the phone. 'I understood that I have different roles in my life. If you are a manager, it's very intense and demanding, and you have to say no to a lot in life. But I enjoyed the days where I could say yes — to my kids, to my wife; to my mom, my brother and my friends.' 'So, I travelled the world with my family and enjoyed my time with them, but when school started, I began to work again. 'I had questions to answer. How can I improve? What and who do I need to do that?' Terzic is someone with whom you can talk about football in rich, dense detail. He can speak about how to build attacking moves and construct defensive systems. What the right level of constructive tension is needed in a team environment. Or how a side needs to change the pitch of its attack to cater to the strengths of different types of forwards. Dortmund was a difficult situation to emerge from. Terzic, now 42, was born in the region and grew up as a BVB fan in nearby Menden. He first started working for the club in 2010, as an assistant coach with the under-19s, and even though he had spells away from the club, it was the end of a significant part of his life. There were other challenges. For much of the last decade, Dortmund have been one of European football's finishing schools, where future greats pause before stepping up to the very top of the sport. Terzic coached the first team, combining his interim and permanent appointments, for two and a half years, during which time he managed Jadon Sancho, Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham. Advertisement The virtue was that his teams were powered by their talent. The curse was that when those players were sold, Dortmund and Terzic had to adapt tactically to a new talisman, meaning that the team's identity during that period was temporary and invariably a reflection of those individuals and their strengths. But Terzic won the DFB-Pokal, the German Cup, in 2021. Were it not for a devastating final day 2-2 draw with Mainz, he would have won the Bundesliga in 2023. And, of course, he came unexpectedly close to becoming a European champion 12 months ago. 'All the players were brilliant — even if we didn't win the final,' says Terzic. 'It's always difficult to talk about yourself but one of my strengths is that I can convince people around me of our common path.' Another strength, perhaps, was creating systems that allowed attacking talent to flourish. Haaland played outstandingly for Terzic and so did Bellingham. Having excelled under Terzic before leaving for Manchester United in 2021, Sancho returned on loan in 2024 and quickly returned to form. The catch was that those Dortmund teams often bore the characteristics of the players, rather than the coach's own tactical identity. That has been the impetus of much of his work since leaving — the focus, this time, has been on Edin Terzic. 'The first thing back in August was to build my new staff,' says the German-Croatian. 'I met many people, from inside the business and from outside, and got involved in conversations about leadership and improvement. 'It was about building not only for the next chapter but beyond that because every time you change clubs, there's going to be a natural change. So, I met many people who are now just one phone call away, wherever I go and whenever it starts. 'Because you never know. Somebody might have just become a father, somebody might want to be a head coach (instead of an assistant) or somebody wants to be in a different country altogether. I needed a good list of people, so I spent many, many days and hours talking to people to get a good feeling about them. Not only about their skills but also their characteristics. Advertisement 'How can they help me on the pitch? How can they help me off the pitch?' This is very much who Terzic is. A serious, searching person. In May 2024, The Athletic spoke to important people from his past, with preparation emerging as a major theme. Professor Peter Lange, under whom Terzic studied for his coaching qualifications at the Ruhr University Bochum, described him as 'conscientious' and 'diligent', adding that 'football was — and still — his absolute focus. His work was meticulous.' And while Terzic is a private person, it will surprise nobody who knows him that he has spent the last year challenging his own thinking. There is that deference about him. As if, without a glittering playing career on his CV, he must pay his dues through study. 'I met maybe 10 to 15 really experienced managers in the past year,' he says. 'Not only from this generation but the one before and the one before that. I don't want to name them in public, but I just wanted to learn from their experience 'When fans watch, say, All or Nothing on Amazon Prime, they get to see the coaches working, but when I'm working in my office, I have questions that nobody can answer other than the people who have sat there too and who have been through it: questions about communication, about speaking to owners and to media. 'How often should you interrupt a player's holiday? How often should you call them when they're on international duty? How often should you change your staff? How do you interact with supporters and members? What are the toughest conflicts that you've ever been through?' This is the searching part of Terzic's personality. Resilience is another. Like everyone else at Dortmund, Terzic remains bruised by what happened against Mainz at the end of the 2022-23 Bundesliga season, when Bayern snatched the title on goal difference, but, in time, that seems to have become an energising memory. A valuable reference point, rather than a wound. Advertisement 'Of course, Mainz is still painful,' he says. 'It's always painful — but then life is painful sometimes and it doesn't need to be negative. It can be a motivation.' 'The final is a difficult memory, too. On the other hand, to have been there, to have beaten Atletico Madrid, and to have beaten Paris Saint-Germain twice without conceding a goal. That is something that I'm really proud of. 'So, it's not only the pain — there's also the belief that I can take to the next stages of my career.' That next stage will happen when the opportunity appears. There have been chances in England, Italy and Turkey, but none have been quite right and he has been happy to wait. Terzic is a constructor. He wants to build a team, not just pick one, and he has spent the last year quietly turning the page.

Dean Huijsen admits ‘I don't care' about being Real Madrid's most expensive defender
Dean Huijsen at his presentation as a Real Madrid player – 'the best club in the world … there is no other club when they appear'. Dean Huijsen at his presentation as a Real Madrid player – 'the best club in the world … there is no other club when they appear'. Photograph: Chema Moya/EPA 'I don't care,' Dean Huijsen said and there was a shrug to go with his answer. The former Bournemouth player had just become the most expensive defender in Real Madrid's history for £50m, but while the 20-year-old talked about 'living a dream' on the day he was presented at their Valdebebas training ground, the price didn't seem to bother him much. Not least because nothing did. 'I'm quite calm,' he said. 'I am me and I am going to live my life and I do what I like most.' 'Madrid is the club of my life, I think,' Huijsen had said when he stepped on to the stage in the basketball arena, tapped the mic and asked: 'Can you hear me?' The son of Dutch footballer Donny Huijsen, who was sitting in the front row with Huijsen's mother Mascha Wijsmuller. The family moved to southern Spain when Dean was five and it was Málaga he was mad about as a boy, although he said here that Sergio Ramos was his idol. Advertisement Related: Jobe Bellingham to play at Club World Cup after completing Dortmund move Huijsen admitted his initial plan had been to stay at Bournemouth for another season but everything accelerated, above all his development. A full Spain debut came in March against the Netherlands, at which he was booed by the home fans after choosing to represent Spain, and Madrid's rebuild under Xabi Alonso brought interest from the Bernabéu to go with the offers from clubs across England and beyond. 'A lot was said but I just concentrated on my football, giving everything at Bournemouth and trying to finish the season in the right way,' Huijsen said. 'I wanted to be here from the first day; once Real Madrid called I didn't have eyes for any other teams. For me, Real Madrid is the best club in the world and there is no other club when they appear.' 'I think my first nice memory of Real Madrid was the [Champions League] final in 2014 in which Sergio Ramos scored in the last minute of added time. I would have been nine,' the new signing added. 'Ramos sent me a message when [the transfer] was official. He's my biggest idol, the best centre-back in history. I wouldn't say there is one thing about him [to single out], but all the things he had: he was the most complete centre-back too.' Advertisement When the final bid came, Madrid matched Bournemouth's £50m buyout clause, albeit they will pay the almost €60m fee in three instalments. 'I don't think about that,' Huijsen said. When he had been asked about it during the recent international break, he had been even more matter-of-fact: 'It's the clause I had,' he told AS, 'and if it hadn't been that maybe they would have asked for more.' As for the pressure, when he was asked about that here, Huijsen replied: 'Well you've seen me play: I'm quite calm. I don't think about it. I'm doing what I love.' He will wear No 24 for a simple reason: 'It's the one there is [available].' 'I fit very well the football that Xabi wants to play and I am going to try to contribute to the team; anything I can do to help, I'm delighted to do so,' Huijsen said. 'We have spoken a bit about what he expects from me, and I think these will be nice years. Bringing the ball out is something I have, as well as defending. 'I think I have shown I am ready. I'm here to help the team and [as for] the demands here: I want to win titles too. I'm not here to not win titles.'

Club World Cup 2025: 5 non-European teams that could upset giants
There are two billion-dollar questions looming over the Club World Cup, and one — will the European teams care? — seems to have an affirmative answer. They've been offered gobs of prize money, so they'll bring their A-list stars, and the tournament's other existential question will come into focus: Can the non-European teams hang with them? It's a billion-dollar question because it cuts to the core of this billion-dollar tournament. If the champions of Asia, Africa and the Americas can compete with Real Madrid and Chelsea, then the Club World Cup is unique; it's a competition worth building; it could be compelling for decades to come. Advertisement But if they can't, it's just a watered-down wannabe Champions League. If the latter stages are an all-Euro affair, it serves no distinct soccer purpose. The Club World Cup, therefore, depends on non-European contenders. Here are five that could rise to the occasion and surprise their wealthier* European counterparts. Flamengo, top of the Brasileirāo and surging in the Libertadores, arrive at the Club World Cup as Brazil's best hope. (Photo by Mauro Pimentel/AFP) (MAURO PIMENTEL via Getty Images) 1. Flamengo (Brazil) The richest club and current leader of soccer's strongest non-European league, the Brasileiro, is an obvious choice to lead this list. After a shaky start to the 2025 Copa Libertadores, the Rubro-Negro (Scarlet and Black) are flying. They've scored 12 goals in their last four games, which included a 2-0 win at Palmeiras. They have perhaps the deepest squad in South America, chock-full of experienced defenders, accomplished midfielders and dynamic attackers. Giorgian de Arrascaeta, the Uruguayan playmaker who has lit up Brazil's Série A for over a decade, is playing some of the best soccer of his career, with 13 goal contributions in just nine league appearances. Advertisement All of which is to say that Flamengo can absolutely trouble Chelsea in Group D, and others in the knockout stages. 2. Palmeiras (Brazil) In a tournament of change, amid a field of teams rocked by recent instability, Palmeiras stands out for its consistency. Under the guidance of Portuguese coach Abel Ferreira since 2020, O Verdão (The Big Green) have won two Copa Libertadores titles and back-to-back Brasileiros; they've accumulated the league's best Expected Goal differential (xGD) in each of the last three seasons. As with all South American clubs that produce excellent players, they've had to sell — Endrick to Real Madrid, Vitor Reis to Manchester City, Danilo to Nottingham Forest and so on. But they've restocked their cupboard with talent from within Brazil, across the Americas and even from Europe. Although they haven't quite hit their stride yet in 2025, all the pieces are in place to win Group A and make a Club World Cup run.

(REUTERS/Hamad I Mohammed) (REUTERS / Reuters) 3. Al Hilal (Saudi Arabia) *Remember that asterisk above, next to 'wealthier'? Yeah, that doesn't apply in the case of Al Hilal, which is backed by the Saudi Public Investment Fund. The club has spent over $500 million the past two years, and built a lineup that could feature goalkeeper Yassine Bounou (Morocco, formerly Sevilla); defenders Kalidou Koulibaly (Senegal, formerly Napoli and Chelsea), João Cancelo (Portugal, formerly Manchester City) and Renan Lodi (Brazil, formerly Atlético Madrid); midfielders Rúben Neves (Portugal, formerly Wolves) and Sergej Milinković-Savić (Serbia, formerly Lazio); and forwards Malcom (Brazil, formerly Bordeaux, Barcelona and Zenit) and Aleksandar Mitrović (Serbia, formerly Fulham). Advertisement How have they all jelled together as a team? Reasonably well, especially in their unbeaten 2023-24 season. But they stumbled occasionally in 2024-25, relinquished the Saudi title to Al Ittihad, and then sacked their manager, Jorge Jesus. To replace him, the PIF reportedly threw over $29 million per year at Inter Milan's Simone Inzaghi, who, a few days after a Champions League final stomping, and less than two weeks before the Club World Cup, will join up with the squad. Can he make his mark, or at least stabilize the club, in that brutally short window? That's the boom-or-bust question clouding Al Hilal's hopes. 4. Al Ahly (Egypt) Africa's most dominant modern club offers quite a contrast to Asia's (Al Hilal; see above). It does not have names that European soccer aficionados will recognize, nor boatloads of cash. But it does have an impressive track record that, crucially, extends beyond the CAF Champions League. Advertisement By virtue of its four continental titles in five years, Al Ahly repeatedly qualified for the former Club World Cup — the eight-team annual version now called the FIFA Intercontinental Cup — and here are its results: 2020: Beat Al-Duhail 1-0, lost to Bayern Munich 2-0, beat Palmeiras on penalties for third place 2021: Beat Monterrey 1-0, lost to Palmeiras 2-0, beat Al Hilal 4-0 for third place 2022: Beat Auckland City 3-0, beat Seattle Sounders 1-0, lost to Real Madrid 4-1 2023: Beat Al Ittihad 3-1, lost to Fluminense 2-0, beat Urawa Reds 4-2 for third place 2024: Beat Al Ain 3-0, lost to Pachuca on penalties Advertisement What all of that suggests is that, while Al Ahly probably can't come close to winning this new version of the Club World Cup, it can frustrate teams — including all three of its Group A opponents, Palmerias, Porto and Inter Miami. It kept clean sheets in eight of those 14 games above. It has an extensive recent history of defensive sturdiness. There is one notable caveat: Al Ahly appointed a new head coach, Jose Riveiro, less than two weeks ago. But its 2020-24 run spanned multiple coaches. Its strength isn't rooted in one man's leadership; it is, at this point, institutional. 5. Inter Miami (United States) Inter Miami makes this list because it has Lionel Messi. Messi can still do special things in group or knockout games, as he showed at his last FIFA tournament. Advertisement But there are all sorts of reasons that Inter Miami isn't equipped to excel at this tournament. Its roster, like most in MLS, is top-heavy. Its defensive, midfield and forward lines are often detached. Its back line is leaky. So, it ranks right alongside Al Hilal in the 'high ceiling, low floor' category.
