A dispute that could last up to 10 weeks between the Premier League and Manchester City, which promises to define the reputations of both parties forever and have seismic consequences.

Punishments ranging from points deductions and record fines to transfer bans and expulsion from the league are being considered.

Refereeing and Real Madrid

Real Madrid won 2-0 against Real Sociedad thanks to two penalties as reported by AS on its front page. This victory snatched thanks to penalties has revived questions about pro-Madrid refereeing. According to the Catalan media SportReal have been awarded four penalties in the space of 5 La Liga games. Each time in moments when Real were being pushed around. Then yesterday’s second penalty using VAR was very controversial. It’s a never-ending story for the newspaper. Quite the opposite for the newspaper ASwhich explains that the two penalties are incontestable. As is often the case, pro-Madrid and pro-Catalan newspapers indirectly confront each other.

Haaland is unanimous

As usual, it was Erling Haaland who saved City by scoring twice. He is making a historic start to the season, as no player before him has scored more goals in the first four games of a Premier League campaign. Since joining City in 2022, Haaland has 99 goals in 103 games in all competitions. The verdict is simple for the Daily Star : no one can stop the Norwegian.
