00:00Welcome to Mediain TV for Maxi-Sport, your sports news show.
00:202024, an unforgettable year for Bouchra Karboubi.
00:24The Moroccan women's 5th best women's referee in the world,
00:29by the International Federation of History and Football Statistics,
00:33as part of the 2024 Awards.
00:35A celebration that takes place only a few days after the CAF Awards ceremony,
00:40in Marrakech, during which she was awarded the prestigious prize
00:44of best African women's referee of the year.
00:47The first official Arab woman to meet the African Nations Cup
00:51as a main referee in Côte d'Ivoire last winter.
00:55She was also whistled during the Women's World Cup,
00:58organized last year in Australia and New Zealand.
01:09Unbeaten since 21 games, Liverpool ended up winning against Leicester,
01:13with a 3-1 win in the final.
01:15But they were scared in a match that was set for the 18th day of the Premier League.
01:21Jordan Ayoub, a Ghanaian international,
01:23played for Andrew Robertson, a right-back.
01:26Before cheating on Alisson with a free-kick,
01:28the Reds were caught in the act,
01:31while the Foxes' goalkeeper, Skakoub Stolarchik,
01:35did miracles to delay the deadline.
01:38Kodi Gakpo forced the decision,
01:41with a beautiful right-footed shot,
01:44which left no chance for the Polish goalkeeper just before the break.
01:48Curtis Jones punished the visitors by showing
01:51he was well-placed on a service by Alexis McAllister.
01:54Then Mohamed Salah enjoyed the whole stadium with a signature goal,
01:57his 16th in the league this season.
01:59Liverpool now have 7 points ahead of Chelsea,
02:03surprised by a London neighbour.
02:08If you've been following this sport for a long time,
02:10like these players, and me too,
02:12you know that in 20 games,
02:14you don't see things the same way.
02:17There are so many challenges to face.
02:19I think that two months ago,
02:21we were one point ahead of Manchester City,
02:23and look at what happened in terms of injuries,
02:26bad luck and suspension,
02:28and that can happen to any team.
02:30It's far too early to rejoice,
02:33but it's good, it's a good thing for us
02:35to be the team that we are.
02:37We know that we can do it.
02:40You've seen games like these, like me,
02:42and I don't think there have been easy wins for us
02:45during these meetings.
02:47It could have been an easy win against Tottenham,
02:49but we conceded two goals,
02:51and the score was 5-3.
02:53It shows how difficult it is
02:55if all the players are available,
02:57not to mention injuries or suspension during the season.
03:01That's why we have to win games,
03:03one after the other.
03:13The end-of-the-season celebrations
03:15have visibly calmed Chelsea's fervour.
03:17Four days after their poor performance
03:19against Everton,
03:21the Blues have turned to Stamford Bridge
03:23to face Fulham, with a 2-1 win.
03:25The Cottagers have pushed
03:27into overtime to knock down their opponents
03:29thanks to a goal from Brazilian striker
03:31Rodrigo Muniz,
03:33who came off the bench a few minutes earlier.
03:35Prior to that, Harry Wilson had responded
03:37to a superb pass from Cole Palmer
03:39at the end of half-time,
03:41scoring in the first 15 minutes of the game.
03:43And that alone
03:45says a lot about the Blues' form,
03:47whose level has declined
03:49as the game progressed.
03:51For Fulham, it's a first win in 45 years
03:53at Chelsea,
03:55and above all, three precious points
03:57to stay in eighth place,
03:59but above all, in the race
04:01for a place in the European Cup.
04:27In the second period,
04:29I think we gave them too much energy
04:31in the first 15 minutes,
04:33and even when they equalised afterwards,
04:35I think we had some great chances
04:37with Kukurela, with Sancho,
04:39but yes, it's a shame.
04:41As for the title,
04:43I asked the same question after winning the game.
04:45I said, no, because we're winning tonight,
04:47we're ready for the title,
04:49and no, because we're losing tonight.
04:51And it's more the feeling
04:53that we have inside,
04:55than the fact that we can see
04:57that there are a lot of things
04:59that we can do better.
05:01One of the things
05:03that we can improve
05:05is the way we handle the game,
05:07but I also think
05:09that we did many good things.
05:11And earlier in the afternoon,
05:13yesterday, the opening game
05:15of this Boxing Day 2024
05:17saw Manchester City,
05:19the quadruple title winner,
05:21be defeated by Everton,
05:23and captain Bernardo Silva
05:25opened the scoring line
05:27with a slightly deviated tackle
05:29by Jarad Brantwaite,
05:31scoring his second goal
05:33in the Premier League
05:35this season,
05:37making it a successful start
05:39for his team-mates.
05:41But the locals struggled
05:43to be as precise
05:45as a left-back
05:47from Portugal,
05:49unlike their opponent,
05:51who are back in 6th place
05:53with this draw,
05:55but can be even better
05:57at 9th place at the end of the day.
05:59Everton took the opportunity
06:01to continue their beautiful
06:03series of four games
06:05with no defeats,
06:07including a draw against Arsenal
06:09and Chelsea,
06:11a precious moment
06:13for the team.
06:15And clearly,
06:17it's not going well
06:19for Everton.
06:21The Red Devils
06:23didn't make things easy
06:25after a first period
06:27where little could be done.
06:29The Portuguese captain,
06:31Bruno Fernandes,
06:33scored a second goal
06:35as soon as the changing room
06:37returned.
06:39The Wolves then took the game
06:41into their own hands
06:43before opening the score
06:45with a direct corner
06:47at the end of the extra time
06:49on the last counter-attack
06:51of the game,
06:53converted by the South Korean
06:55striker, Lee Chan-woong,
06:57served by the first scorer.
06:59Wolverhampton did well
07:01to give the air
07:03to United
07:05in order to face
07:07a thrilling calendar.
07:09On their side,
07:11the Red Devils
07:13are in 3rd place
07:15after a World Cup
07:17where Simona Lepp
07:19didn't qualify for the Australian Open
07:21and a warm-up tournament
07:23in Auckland
07:25due to knee and shoulder pain.
07:27Although her 877th place
07:29theoretically didn't allow her
07:31to qualify,
07:33the Romanian,
07:35who tried to come back
07:37after a suspension
07:39for doping,
07:41received an invitation
07:43but announced on her Instagram
07:45that the start of her
07:47season 2025 would be delayed.
07:49Initially suspended for 4 years
07:51until 2026 due to a positive
07:53check at the US Open 2022
07:55and an anomaly on her
07:57biological passport.
07:59Simona Lepp saw the arbitration
08:01tribunal reduce her sentence
08:03to 9 months last March,
08:05allowing her to return
08:07to school from the Miami tournament.
08:13As expected,
08:15Van Der Poel didn't leave any chance
08:17to her rivals in Gaver
08:19where she dominated.
08:21The 7th round of the Cyclocross World Cup
08:23was already a winner
08:25on her first two outings.
08:27The Dutch won 3-3
08:29with a disconcerting ease
08:31on the eve of her reunion
08:33with Wout Van Aert
08:35in Leenuwt.
08:37Van Der Poel took his time
08:39to beat his opponents
08:41Michael Van Toerhout
08:43and Pim Ronaar
08:45in the first round
08:47while the world champion
08:49remained at a distance.
08:51For the women,
08:53Van Der Poel dominated
08:55the competition.
08:57The Dutch champion
08:59climbed the highest step
09:01of a podium
09:03with 37 seconds ahead
09:05of Lucina Brand
09:07and 46 seconds ahead
09:09of Van Der Poel.
09:13Now, let's talk about basketball.
09:15For their last match of 2024,
09:17Monaco easily won
09:19against Istanbul's Turkish team
09:2194-75
09:23in the 18th day of the EuroLeague.
09:25Thanks to this success,
09:27Monaco remained
09:29on a heavy defeat
09:31on Real Madrid's field
09:33last week,
09:35keeping the 2nd place
09:37and a winning percentage
09:39almost identical to that
09:41of the Parisian leader
09:43who will end the year
09:45with a match in Spain
09:47in Vitoria.
09:49This Thursday,
09:51Monaco took the lead
09:53with a 15-4 lead
09:55and were never worried.
09:57The gap was 15 points
09:59and never dropped
10:01below 10 points
10:03in the second period.
10:05Now, let's talk about Olympiacos.
10:11LeBron James
10:13doesn't seem ready
10:15to stop his professional career.
10:17Still performing
10:19with the Lakers
10:21in Los Angeles,
10:23he will celebrate his 40th birthday
10:25in three days
10:27with a great performance
10:29with the Californian franchise
10:31on Christmas Day
10:33LeBron James
10:35has a career full of records
10:37and trophies
10:39and he doesn't seem
10:41to want to stop there.
10:43You know,
10:45I'm grateful
10:47to be able to play
10:49the sport I love
10:51and to do it
10:53on such a beautiful day.
10:55I had the luxury
10:57to play for the 19th time
10:59at Christmas.
11:01I'm still in the league
11:03and I'm full of energy.
11:05I love the game
11:07and I want to participate
11:09in the competition with my team.
11:11I try to give as much energy
11:13as possible when I can.
11:15During the last few weeks,
11:17I've shown it.
11:19When Lionel Messi
11:21couldn't extend his contract
11:23with FC Barcelona
11:25because of Real Madrid president
11:27Florentino Perez,
11:29he thought he could extend
11:31his contract in 2021.
11:33But his club still
11:35didn't have the money
11:37to keep him.
11:39In the midst of difficulties,
11:41president Blaugrana
11:43joined La Porta in August 2021
11:45with the president of the league,
11:47Javier Tebas,
11:49and the owner of Media Pro,
11:51Jaume Roures,
11:53to reach an agreement
11:55with the CWC investment fund
11:57except for Real Madrid.
11:59But Florentino Perez
12:01didn't know about it.
12:03La Porta thought
12:05they could reach an agreement
12:07as soon as possible.
12:09Messi extended his contract
12:11and president Madrilen decided
12:13to contact Barça
12:15because the agreement
12:17with CWC was not profitable
12:19for the two clubs.
12:21La Porta's manager
12:23and his financial support
12:25joined Paris Saint-Germain
12:27a few days later.
12:29This is the end of this edition.
12:33See you next time.
