Uzoho has night to remember
Omonia Nicosia goalkeeper and boyhood Manchester United fan Francis Uzoho could not hide his delight despite losing 1-0 to the Red Devils at Old Trafford last night.
The Nigerian stopper, 23, had a night to remember at the Theatre of Dreams after making an astonishing 12 saves during the Cypriot side’s Europa League Group E clash last night.
Despite Uzoho’s resistance eventually being broken by Scott McTominay’s 93rd-minute winner, he refused to let that ruin his mood.
He told BT Sport: “I am not disappointed. We had a good game, I am happy, it is not an easy stadium to play at.
“It is a dream come true. I have dreamed to play here for a long, long time.
“When I saw the draw, I wanted to play and I got the opportunity.
“Arguably it is the best I have played. I am proud of my team-mates though, because it is not a one-man job.”
Full stream ahead of Barca
Barcelona will celebrate Drake becoming the first artist to surpass 50 billion streams on Spotify by wearing a special shirt in Sunday’s El Clasico.
The LaLiga giants are sponsored by the streaming service but will replace its logo with the OVO owl emblem of the Canadian rapper against Real Madrid.
It is part of Barca and Spotify’s aim to “bring football and music together”.
Barcelona’s vice-president of marketing: “Our alliance with Spotify goes beyond a mere commercial relationship. It is a strategic relationship through which we seek to bring together two worlds that can arouse emotion — namely music and football.
“This initiative is another example of this desire and the innovative spirit of our collaboration.
“For the first time in our history, we are replacing the name of our main sponsor on the front of the jersey with an internationally acclaimed artist, Drake.
“This initiative shows our potential to become a unique platform to offer experiences that help bring us closer to our fans while reaching out to new audiences around the world.”
