Last week, Nick Woltemade hit rock bottom. His own goal cost Newcastle United the Wear-Tyne derby against Sunderland, and he felt he owed supporters a reprieve. That came on Saturday, with two goals in the final match of 2025 at St James' Park against Chelsea. It was an extremely impressive way to bounce back. With the Magpies leading, in full control at half time and Woltemade squandering a chance for a hat-trick, it felt as though a huge victory was in reach.

Madueke returned from a two-month knee injury during the north London derby before scoring their second in their 3-1 victory against Bayern Munich. It was his first goal for Arsenal in all competitions, his first-ever Champions League goal and his first for any club since May, when he scored for Chelsea against Djurgarden, ending a run of 17 games without a goal.

"The boss always speaks about us getting them behind us," said Konsa. "When things aren't going well, it's important the fans stay with us. You can see, at times, they get a bit frustrated with some of our players. We have to be able to deal with that. I try to stay positive as much as possible. Last season we went through a blip but, at that point, we were scoring goals. It just felt a bit different. Now we ain't scoring as much, it just feels a bit low."

"It is helping in the same direction, so hopefully, we can do it this week and move forward - and take these nonsense questions and narratives away from our daily [lives]. "I am a person who thinks a lot before saying anything. I say this because I believe that things can improve, but now is a moment to ignore the noise and focus on what I have to do. My job is clear."

Outside people don't know anything. That's the type of person he is. That doesn't mean that he's not a great manager. When we were winning, everybody was on our side, now it's like all the fans are against us and all that. I don't get it. We're here and we know what's going on, we know what we're feeling, we know what we're working for, but fans are going to be fans, we can't do nothing about it.

"Not in the first inning. That was oof. That was Dodger Stadium-like, to be honest with you. I've never seen so many people from the opposition in one ballpark."

"There is a lot of regret, we were a minute and a half away from the dream. Unfortunately in the final we were tired," Elena Linari told Italian broadcaster RAI.

"It's a massive lesson for us, I think it's priceless. I think it was an amazing tournament to realize in the way that we wanted to grow...but it's also a night that is a very, very painful night, because when you lose a trophy, or you lose a game, it's really, really painful. But the most important thing is to have our heads up."

Sporting success is the foundation. This naturally creates a better feeling among the people in the country, and the connection between fans and team is positively charged.

I do feel the support of the fans. It's important that I have much more fans behind me.

The moment of silence at Madison Square Garden highlighted how Knicks fans support their players, even in awkward situations, like Mitchell Robinson's free throw attempts.

After being heckled and attacked by Knicks fans, Tyrese Haliburton invited the targeted Pacers fan, Hanz Perez, to Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

We want to thank you for your support and your patience as we work to finish the game.
