Thuram Marcus
TorAlarm Top-News
Er wirbelte, er zauberte, er traf. Lamine Yamal (17) brachte viele Fans beim 3:3 gegen Inter Mailand im Hinspiel des Champions-League-Halbfinals ins Schwärmen.
Einer wollte aber noch nicht in die Lobeshymnen auf das Barça-Juwel einsteigen: Marcus Thuram (27).
Der Inter-Stürmer über die Leistung seines jungen Gegners bei „Canal+“: „Ist Yamal der beste Spieler der Welt? Nein, das glaube ich nicht. Der beste Spieler der Welt ist Franzose. Der zweitbeste Spieler ist meiner Meinung nach auch Franzose. Das sind Ousmane (Dembélé; d.Red.) und Kylian (Mbappé; d.Red.).“
[–>Dass Yamal für Thuram nicht der beste Spieler der Welt ist, scheint nicht ganz überraschend. Immerhin spielt er im gegnerischen Team. Dazu käme so viel Lob noch vorm Rückspiel (6. Mai/21 Uhr) wohl nicht ganz so gut an. Allerdings spielen auch Dembélé (Paris Saint-Germain) und Mbappé (Real Madrid) nicht mit Thuram in einem Team. Alle drei sind aber Franzosen und kennen sich daher gut aus der Nationalmannschaft. Mit Mbappé absolvierte Thuram bisher 28 Spiele gemeinsam, mit Dembélé 20.
Und auf welchem Platz landet Yamal in Thurams Liste? Der Stürmer, der zwischen 2019 und 2023 in der Bundesliga für Gladbach spielte: „Yamal ist vielleicht der Dritte.“

Immerhin: Das Barça-Juwel wurde trotz seiner erst 17 Jahre im vergangenen Jahr bereits mit dem Preis für den „Golden Boy“ ausgezeichnet. Damit wird der beste U21-Spieler Europas geehrt. Außerdem erhielte er auch die Kopa-Trophäe, eine Auszeichnung für den weltbesten U21-Spieler. Bei der Wahl zu Ballon d‘Or landete er im vergangenen Jahr auf Platz 8.
„Gibt es nur alle 50 Jahre“: Inter-Trainer schwärmt von galaktischem Yamal
Während Thuram mindestens zwei Spieler für besser hält, staunt dessen Trainer über den Barcelona-Star. Inter-Coach Simone Inzaghi (51): „Ich habe in den letzten acht oder neun Jahren keinen Spieler wie Lamine Yamal gesehen. Wir mussten drei Spieler auf ihn ansetzen!“ Und: „Er ist ein Spieler, der alle 50 Jahre auftaucht.“

NBA playoffs: Russell Westbrook enjoys himself with hanging dunk tech in Nuggets’ blowout of Clippers
Amid the carnage that was the Denver Nuggets' Game 7 blowout of the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday, it had to feel pretty good to be Russell Westbrook.The veteran guard had a solid two-season career with the Clippers, but was jettisoned last offseason as part of a trade to the Utah Jazz that landed defensive specialist Kris Dunn. At 35 years old, Westbrook was waived by Utah and proceeded to join the Nuggets in free agency.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementWestbrook is a long distance away from his years as an All-Star, but he slotted in as a bench piece for a Denver team desperate for depth and did usual thing, for better or worse. It was better on Saturday, when Westbrook stole the ball from his old team while up 29 points in the fourth quarter and took a victory dunk.Then he hung on […]
Botafogo sente ausências do time e perde para o Bahia pelo Brasileiro
Com muitos desfalques (sete, ao todo), o Botafogo até que tentou fazer frente ao Bahia. Mas não conseguiu resistir aos donos da casa e perdeu por 1 a 0, na Fonte Nova. Uma derrota que freia a reação da equipe no Brasileiro. Com nove pontos, o atual campeão caiu na tabela e passou para a metade de baixo. Dorme em 11º e pode perder mais posições no complemento da rodada. No próximo domingo, o Botafogo vai tentar se recuperar diante do Internacional, no Nilton Santos. Antes, contudo, fará jogo decisivo contra o Carabobo, na Venezuela, pela Libertadores, na terça-feira. O gol da partida foi de Cauly, aos 38 da primeira etapa, concluindo ótima jogada individual de Erick Pulga. Na etapa final, já na base do abafa, o Botafogo conseguiu equilibrar a partida, e a disputa ficou aberta. Os dois lados […]
