Man United loanee Harry Amass endures nightmare Sheffield Wednesday debut

Manchester United star Harry Amass had a loan debut to forget as his side, Sheffield Wednesday, suffered a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Bristol City.

Wednesday beaten by Bristol

Bristol extended their superb start to the 2025/26 campaign with a dominant 3-0 win over Wednesday, who remain winless this term.

The Robins took the lead just six minutes in, as Amass – who was making his bow for Wednesday – deflected Rob Dickie’s effort into the back of his own net.

Things went from bad to worse for Wednesday as they conceded a second goal just 12 minutes later, as Emil Riis expertly converted a cross from Anis Mehmeti.

Mehmeti would go on to get on the score sheet himself, ensuring Bristol went into the break with a commanding three-goal lead.

Amass’ performance

Beyond his own goal, Amass touched the ball 41 times and managed to find his teammates with 17 of the 24 passes he attempted (71% pass accuracy).

The England youth international aimed a cross, but could not find his intended target with it.

He successfully completed three of the four dribbles he embarked on. Defensively, Amass was solid, winning six of the nine ground duels he delved into.

He contributed one clearance and twice as many tackles. Wednesday boss Henrik Pedersen afforded Amass only 68 minutes before he took him off and brought Reece Johnson in his place.

Vitek’s performance

Vitek started in goal for Bristol yet again. The shot-stopper has enjoyed a fantastic start to life at Ashton Gate and he extended this run in the meeting with Wednesday.

He made just one run out of his goal, and the United youngster executed it successfully. He also registered two high claims.

Vitek was involved 36 times on the ball, completing half of his 30 passes and landing four accurate long-range deliveries.

The 21-year-old came out on top in his only ground and aerial duels, and added a clearance to his tally.

Bristol are back in action next Sunday when they host Oxford United. Meanwhile, Amass will be hoping for far better fortunes when Wednesday take on Grimsby Town in the third round of the EFL cup.

Eagles coach calls out star player for being out of shape: ‘Both he and I have talked about that’

https://ift.tt/5x1sACw PHILADELPHIA — Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter is still not in his best form yet. After getting ejected before the first snap in Week 1 for spitting on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott , Carter made his season debut in Philadelphia’s Week 2 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at Arrowhead Stadium. As one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL, Carter is expected to take over games, but that didn’t happen against the Chiefs. “He had some good rushes, but he needs to round into better shape,” Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said on Tuesday. “Both he and I have talked about that. He readily admits that. I think we’ll even get more (out of him). For everything that has gone on in his world, I thought he played pretty good.” Carter amassed two tackles and three quarterback hits, while playing 80% of the snaps. He has the talent to be more productive. Last year, Carter became an unstoppable force after ...

Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane ready to take on English rivals in Champions League

https://ift.tt/SwpIz0O Bayern Munich star Harry Kane cannot wait to hit the grass at the Allianz Arena to face off with Chelsea FC in the Champions League. “We back ourselves to beat any team at the Allianz Arena. It’s up to you [journalists] and fans to decide who are the favourites. We’re feeling very good right now. If we want to beat Chelsea, we have to perform at our peak. It will be a tough and great game. Chelsea did very well at the Club World Cup and right now in the Premier League,“ said Kane (as captured by @iMiaSanMia ). When asked about the statement made by Uli Hoeneß, Kane respectfully disagreed. “A club like Bayern always expects to win every competition. I wouldn’t say we’re underdogs, even though we’re playing against the best teams in Europe. Now begins a long journey, hopefully until May. I don’t want to look too far ahead. We want to be as high as possible in the league phase table. It all starts tomorrow,” Kane said. Harkening back to last season’s Champions...
