The Architecture of Football: RIBA & Tate Liverpool Unveil Fall 2025 Exhibition

In partnership with theTate Liverpool, theRoyal Institute of British Architects (RIBA)presents a Fall 2025 exhibition centered on a quintessentially English sporting culture. 'Home Ground: The Architecture of Football' at Gallery One of Tate Liverpool traces the historical development of football stadium design, dating from the 1890s to the present day. Featuring more than 50 global football stadiums, the Fall 2025 exhibit will dive into the stories and plans for some of the world's most important football venues. As the city prepares for the eventual opening of the Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool in 2027, a wealth of architectural models, photographs, and other archival materials will grant visitors insight into the architectural considerations that form the stadium experience and the accompanying social culture of football fandom. 'Football has a unique ability to stir emotions, cross borders and captivate the world,' shared RIBA President, Muyiwa Oki in a statement. 'At their best, stadiums are as iconic as the players themselves, etched into the hearts of fans long after the final whistle. For architects, they offer a rare opportunity to help shape the beautiful game.' From Everton to Chelsea, the exhibit will start at the foundations of modern stadiums led by early designers like Archibald Leitch, one of the foremost club architects in the early 20th century. RIBA then offers a snapshot of modern stadiums designed by firms like BDP, Populous, Herzog & de Meuron, gmp von Gerkan, Marg and Partners Architects. 'From the red and blue cauldron of Barcelona's Nou Camp to the iconic arch of Wembley rising in the backdrop of London, great design can amplify atmosphere, heighten drama and leave a lasting mark on a city's skylines,' Oki added. The Home Ground exhibition will be open from October 15, 2025, to January 6, 2026. Information and tickets will be available atthe official Tate website.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer on the brink? Besiktas line up replacement just six months after appointing Man Utd legend

Solskjaer could be on his way out Recent defeat to Shakhtar has put him under the scanner Two candidates are already on their shortlist Follow GOAL on WhatsApp! 🟢📱 WHAT HAPPENED? Solskjaer's early days in charge saw a promising run of results that brought renewed optimism to fans. The team secured victories in six of their first eight fixtures under his leadership, including an impressive derby win over rivals Fenerbahce. THE BIGGER PICTURE However, consistency has since become an issue. The initial momentum has faded, with results turning mixed and performances lacking cohesion. The recent 4-2 defeat to Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk in the first leg of the UEFA Europa League second qualifying round has only intensified scrutiny on the former Premier League manager. DID YOU KNOW? Fabrizio Romano suggests that Nuri Sahin, the former Borussia Dortmund player and manager, has entered serious contention to take over the managerial reins at Besiktas. Sahin's name has gained traction within the club's hierarchy, particularly due to his tactical acumen and deep familiarity with Turkish football. What adds fuel to the speculation is Sahin's recent appearance at a Besiktas game. Fans noted his presence in the stands as a possible indication of behind-the-scenes discussions already taking place. In addition to potentially becoming head coach, there are whispers that Sahin might also take on influence over transfer activity, a role that some within Besiktas believe should not be entrusted to Solskjaer alone. WHAT NEXT FOR BESIKTAS? Alongside Sahin, another familiar figure has emerged in the conversation, former Besiktas boss Sergen Yalcin. Having previously led the team to domestic success, Yalcin remains a popular figure among sections of the fanbase and is reportedly open to a return. Serdal Adali, president of Besiktas, is believed to be evaluating all possibilities as he considers how best to guide the club back to winning ways. The pressure to make the right call is immense, especially with fans expecting progress both in Europe and the Turkish Super Lig this season.

Miyu Yamashita struggles on 24th birthday and sees her Women's British Open lead shrink to one shot, Rockland's Megan Khang three back

Advertisement That put Yamashita — who turned 24 on Saturday — at 9-under 207. 'I'll be just looking at what went wrong and what went right and analyzing the day and make the improvements that hopefully will lead to a better round tomorrow,' Yamashita said. Kim put on a fabulous display as the wind got stronger with a 5-under 67. She had a chance to tie for the lead when she hit a 335-yard drive on the 18th hole with a helping wind and fast links turf. She went just long, used her putter from off the green and took three putts for par. Even so, it puts her in the final group with Yamashita as Lim goes for her second major, having won the Advertisement 'Honestly I'm not focused on the leader. I focus on my process and my shot and then my position,' Kim said. And it's not just Kim with a chance. Yamashita's struggles brought several possibilities in the final round, including the always entertaining Charley Hull. She shot a 66, going from 11 shots behind to within three shots of the lead as Hull goes for her first major. Charley Hull's moving day charge in less than 60 seconds ⏱️ — AIG Women's Open (@AIGWomensOpen) 'I just kind of enjoy chasing,' Hull said of playing from behind. 'It's more fun that way.' Andrea Lee had a 67 and was two shots behind, followed by Hull, Rockland native Megan Khang (68), Rio Takeda (74), and Minami Katsu, whose 65 matched the low score of the tournament. Khang, who had six birdies and two bogeys, will be paired with Hull for the final round. Rockland's Megan Khang had six birdies and two bogeys in a round of 4-under 68 that has her in a tie for fourth, three shots off the lead at the Women's British Open. Kin Cheung/Associated Press 'I think there will be a little bit of extra pressure on whoever is the 54-hole leader,' Lee said. 'Tomorrow is going to be pretty tough. Anything can happen out there. I think anyone within five shots has a chance at this championship honestly, so I'm just going to try and keep my head down and stick to my own game plan and try not to look at the leaderboard.' The Women's British Open had the look of a Japanese duel, with Yamashita three shots ahead of Takeda and no one else closer than seven shots. But it was a struggle for Yamashita early with her putting, and then one of the straightest drivers lost her way. She steadied herself with an approach — from the rough, of course — into 3 feet for birdie on No. 11, and a tee shot that settled 3 feet away for another birdie on the par-3 12th. Advertisement But playing out of the fescue caught up with her, and except for that 40-foot par putt on the 17th to keep her in the lead, it was a struggle to get done with the round. She's not backing down! What a moment for Miyu Yamashita to maintain her lead 👏 — AIG Women's Open (@AIGWomensOpen) Takeda wasn't much better, with two bogeys in four holes at the start and two more bogeys over the final five holes. Lottie Woad, the rising English star who Nelly Korda, the No. 1 player in women's golf, is likely to end the major championship season without a title. She shot 74 and fell nine shots behind. Korda has gone 13 tournaments without winning and risks losing her No. 1 ranking to Jeeno Thitikul depending on the final round. The LPGA Tour already is off to a historic start by not having a multiple winner through 19 tournaments, a streak that could continue. Only Kim and Takeda from the top 10 on the leaderboard have won this year.
