Sports: Dani Carvajal: This is why Barcelona beat Real Madrid in El Clasico

The Catalan giants came out on top at the Bernabeu in a 3-2 win that included a last-second winner from Lionel Messi, his 500th goal for Barcelona.

Real were left short at the back when star defender Ramos was sent off on 77 minutes for a wild lunge.

And fellow defender Carvajal says going down to 10 men ended his side's chance of picking up a result.

“It was a crazy game, the red card decided the match,” he said.

“We managed to get back level, but ultimately a counterattack took the three points.

“Calmness is needed, it’s no big deal. We have one more game left than them, this is football and we have to keep going.

“Messi’s performance? Barcelona won. Messi had a great game, but Barcelona won.

“You can’t criticise the team, we have another League game on Wednesday and we must keep going. There’s still a long way to go.”

Barca went top of La Liga with the win, although Real Madrid still have a game in hand.

SPORTS: Man Utd breeze past Burnley

Though few would argue Ibrahimovic deserves a far better farewell than watching on from the sidelines – particularly with the Europa League final taking place in his home city of Stockholm next month – the truth is that Jose Mourinho’s young guns have finally found their feet without him.

Against both Chelsea and Anderlecht, Marcus Rashford came to the fore as he was given the freedom to run in behind from a central position and instil the same fear into opposition defenders as he had done during the latter part of last season. At Burnley, it was Rooney and Anthony Martial’s turn to deliver on the early promise.

SPORTS: COACH ARRESTED AFTER LOSING 12-0 TO BARCELONA B TEAM

Spanish police has arrested the coach of Spanish third division side Eldense.

The Italian coach, Filippo di Pierro, is being investigated for match fixing after his side’s 12-0 defeat by Barcelona’s B team on Saturday.

There is no indication Barcelona B were involved in any wrongdoing.

Di Pierro, joined the club in January, and was by an unnamed Italian investment group that has since severed ties with the club.

The defeat sealed Eldense’s relegation.

On Sunday the club said they would not play any more matches this season, but later backtracked and confirmed the fixtures would be honoured.

In an interview with Spanish radio station, Cadena Ser, Eldense defender Emmanuel Mendy said the club’s assistant coach, Fran Ruiz, had spoken to him about a plan to fix the game.

“He asked me if I was in and how much I wanted and if I wasn’t in then I wouldn’t play,” said Mendy.

Ruiz, who also spoke to Cadena Ser, reportedly said, “In principle the orders came from above, from the coach.

“I didn’t know what to do, I was between a rock and a hard place.

“I didn’t say a word in the dugout, I made no substitutions and I didn’t send anyone out to warm up. Then I resigned from the club.”

Barcelona first-team coach Luis Enrique has also commented on the situation, which he described as “very delicate”.

“It’s exclusively related to Eldense,” he said. “Barca B have nothing to do with it and is another victim of this racketeering.

“I’m glad that it’s being investigated and is being taken seriously.”

It is not yet clear how Kaweesi was killed but Inspector-General of Police Kale Kayihura and other senior security officers rushed to the scene to ascertain what could have happened.

ENTERTAIMENT: Poor Concert Planning Destroys Voices – 9ice

Singer 9ice, has blamed poor concert planning as the reason for his deep sultry voice not being as great as it use to be.

In a chat with Sunday Scoop, the ‘Economy’ crooner said:
“As of the time I recorded my first album, I was 24 years old, and if you compare that to when someone is 35 years old, you can see the changes in the physical body and every other aspect. Age has a lot to do with that. Another factor is that most times when we go for concerts, the microphones and other sound equipment are not right. I end up shouting at the top of my voice. Imagine someone doing that consistently for five years. After the release of Gongo Aso, I was doing shows all over back and forth for almost five years. Sometimes, you rehearse your songs on a particular key, and when you get there for performance, they play a different key. So with all these, there is the tendency to lose your voice, and even get the voice cracking,” he said.
