Having been stunned by England at the weekend, Germany will need to put a much better performance if they are to get back to winning ways against another high-profile European team. Italy were held by Spain last week, but will be eager to repeat the inspired performance one again when they travel to face the World Champions.

Joachim Low’s charges will need to make significant improvements ahead of the Euro 2016. The reigning world champions have been fairly unconvincing during their qualifying process and their stuttering form continues. Having ended 2015 with a 2-0 loss in France, Die Mannschaft began 2016 with another defeat. Despite going two up against England on Saturday, Germany were dealt a huge blow as the Three Lions put in a scintillating performance to com…
Valencia have signed Gabriel Paulista for a reported €11milllion, the centre-back agreeing a five-year deal at the club after leaving Arsenal.

Italy s superb Euro 2020 campaign continued on Friday as they edged past Belgium 2-1 in Munich to set up a semi-final clash with Spain.
Superb strikes from Nicolo Barella and Lorenzo Insigne put Italy two goals ahead by the 44th minute, but Belgium pulled one back before the interval courtesy of a Romelu Lukaku penalty.
Lukaku went close in the second period, yet Roberto Mancini s side held firm in the first knockout meeting between the sides at a major tournament.
The Azzurri will now play Spain at Wembley Stadium on Tuesday after Luis Enrique s side overcame Switzerland on penalties earlier in the day.

Masahiko Inoha has left Hajduk Split after failing to receive his wages for over three months, according to Croatian and Japanese reports.
Sponichi reported that the 26-year-old defender, who earned seven caps and one goal for Japan last year, did not show up to practice earlier this week and requested that his contract be cancelled after consulting with the Croatian Football Federation and the country s players union.
Hajduk, who currently trail league leaders Dinamo Zagreb by six points, are suffering from severe financial difficulties.
Despite celebrating their 100th anniversary in style a year ago, Bulgarian manager Krasimir Balakov accepted a 40 percent salary cut last month after an appeal from club president Hrvoje Males.
Inoha continues to train…

Ah, Redfall. Arkane Studios’ attempt at a co-op shooter that ended up as one of the lowest-rated games of last year.
Revealed in June 2021 for Xbox Series X/S and PC, it’s set in the titular town where vampires have taken over and blotted out the sun. While Arkane Austin mostly cut its teeth on immersive sim titles, its last being 2017’s Prey, this was open-world, focused on gunplay and offering unique kits for each character.
Updates were sparse until Microsoft announced in May 2022 that Redfall and Starfield were delayed to the first half of 2023. As its release year rolled around, Redfall started generating a bit of concern. Campaign co-op progress tied to the host, a persistent online c…
Team Asobi’s Astro Bot is out on September 6th for PS5 and has received exceptional critical acclaim, becoming the highest-rated game of the year. While it’s receiving new “playful” levels and speedrun stages this year, the planned number has now been revealed.
During a visit to the studio last month, VGC saw a presentation that confirmed ten challenge levels and five speedrun levels as post-launch DLC. It’s unknown if Team Asobi has changed course since then. Depending on how sales and word of mouth pans out, the 3D platformer could receive more extensive support.
At launch, Astro Bot promises a hefty amount of content, with over 300 Bots to find, 150 being cameos from other well-known franchises lik Homeworld 3 has had quite the journey since launch, receiving backlash from fans for its gameplay and story-telling. Though it’s received extensive updates and fixes since launching this past May, development is ending. Update 1.3 and the remaining paid DLC are available, but additional features and content aren’t happening. The update revamps the gameplay, overhauling armor and weapon classes with changes to directional damage bonus and weapon penetration. The tech tree has seen a balancing pass, and a new Reinforce function is available for all modes. War Games has been updated with 45 new Artifacts (including Ultimate Artifacts) and an Interstitials System, which features three new encounters.
Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain have parted company with Laurent Blanc, with Sevilla coach Unai Emery poised to take over.
Following widespread speculation linking Emery with the PSG job, it was announced he would depart Sevilla almost two weeks ago. Jorge Sampaoli is set to be the three-time Europa League winner s successor in Andalusia.
Blanc guided PSG to back-to-back domestic trebles in the last two seasons, but quarter-final exits in the Champions League in each of his three seasons in charge are likely to have cost him dearly.
As we embark on a new chapter in the development of the club, I would like to thank Laurent Blanc for everything he has achieved over the last three years, both in terms of the playing style and results, PSG CEO Nasser Al-Kh…
