World Cup 2010: Yaya Touré’s agent says move to Manchester City likely

• Barcelona midfielder likely to join brother Kolo at Eastlands • ‘I think we will probably close his departure very soon’ Manchester City’s long pursuit of Yaya Touré is nearing a successful conclusion and the basis of a deal with Barcelona has been agreed for after the World Cup. A fee has been decided, understood to value him in the region of £25m, and if the structure of payments can be decided City appear to have beaten off Chelsea to convince the 27-year-old that joining a club not involved in the Champions League may still be of benefit to his career. Touré has been on City’s radar since Mark Hughes was manager but, until the past few weeks, he has always expressed reservations about leaving Barcelona for a club outside the Champions League. He is now understood to be inclined to join his brother, Kolo, and become City’s second major summer signing following the £10.5m arrival of Jerome Boateng, the Germany defender, from Hamburg. “I think we will probably close his departure very soon,” Touré’s agent, Dimitri Seluk, said today. “It is likely to be this week, but at the moment we can’t announce anything.” The matter is complicated by the fact that Barcelona have a new president, Sandro Rosell. “I haven’t spoken to Rosell but, out of respect, of course I will speak to him before anything is closed,” Seluk said. “[Joan] Laporta is the president until 30

Veteran Gavin Thomas back for Wales against New Zealand

• Dragons flanker to face All Blacks in first Test • Alun Wyn Jones and Andrew Bishop also start at Carisbrook Gavin Thomas, the 32-year-old who last played Test rugby in 2007, was today named by Wales in the starting XV for the international against the All Blacks on Saturday. The open-side flanker gets his chance in the first of two Tests in New Zealand because Martyn Williams was allowed to miss the tour and because his replacement, Sam Warburton, broke his jaw playing against the Springboks. The other change in the pack is the return of the lock Alun Wyn Jones, while Andrew Bishop replaces the centre James Hook, who is about to have surgery on his damaged shoulder. For those who thought Thomas’s return underlined the Welsh problem of lack of cover in some positions, the coach, Warren Gatland, was adamant: “Gavin Thomas is an experienced flanker who knows all about what it takes to perform at international level. He and Alun Wyn Jones have both impressed in training and deserve their chance this weekend.” The coach might also have mentioned that Thomas has been impressive for Newport Gwent Dragons this season after having his contract with Scarlets terminated. Thomas has also battled back from an achilles injury to produce some of his best rugby this season. Thomas, who made his international debut in 2001 and last played for Wales on the 2007 tour of Australia, admitted he had thought about retiring but after the Dragons lifeline was looking forward to his 23 Test “more than I have any others. I didn’t think it would happen, but it’s here and I need to do something about it”. “This is a performance I need to get right,” said Thomas after hearing that he would be going head-to-head with the All Black captain and inspiration, Richie McCaw. With Gethin Jenkins, Shane Williams, Andy Powell, Duncan Jones, and Luke Charteris also absent along with Martyn Williams and Hook the side had a predictable look to it. The Scarlets scrum-half Tavis Knoyle is likely to make his international debut at some stage and is joined by the Ospreys fly-half Dan Biggar and fellow Scarlet Jonathan Davies in providing cover for the backline. “We are playing one of the best sides in the world at the moment on [their] home soil and they don’t come much bigger than this,” said Gatland. “But we are determined and there is a quiet self-belief creeping through the squad at the moment which makes me feel we are capable of producing a performance to be proud of against the All Blacks.” Given that the All Blacks trounced Ireland 66-28 last weekend, that might have sounded unrealistic if only because Wales have not beaten New Zealand in 57 years. However Gatland is relying on a core of experienced players such as Mike Phillips, Stephen Jones, Jamie Roberts, Adam Jones and Ryan Jones to provide an upset at Carisbrook. As from next year’s World Cup, Test rugby at Dunedin will be played indoors at the Forsyth Barr Stadium, and the All Blacks will not be upset to be moving after 102 years. In 2008 they lost 30-28 to South Africa and last year were beaten 27-22 by France. Wales: Byrne (Ospreys); Halfpenny (Cardiff Blues), Bishop (Ospreys), Roberts (Cardiff Blues), Prydie (Ospreys); S Jones (Scarlets), Phillips (Ospreys); James (Ospreys), Rees (Scarlets), A Jones (Ospreys), B Davies (Cardiff Blues), A W Jones (Ospreys), J Thomas (Ospreys), G Thomas (Newport Gwent Dragons), R Jones (Ospreys, capt). Replacements: Bennett (Ospreys), Yapp (Cardiff Blues), D

Greece 2-1 Nigeria | World Cup 2010 Group B match report

Greece scored their first goals and secured their first victory in a World Cup finals, coming from behind to beat Nigeria 2-1 in their Group B match in Bloemfontein. Kalu Uche opened the scoring for Nigeria but they were reduced to 10 men 11 minutes before the break when Sani Kaita was sent off. Greece took advantage to draw level a minute before half-time through Dimitris Salpigidis. Vasilis Torosidis, the man fouled by Kaita leading to his dismissal, was then on hand to poke the ball home from close range after Vincent Enyeama failed to hold a swerving shot from Georgios Karagounis in the 71st minute. Nigeria took the lead after 16 minutes following a defensive howler by their opponents. Greece failed to cut out an inswinging free-kick from Uche and, as a series of players missed the ball, it nestled in the net. While Uche celebrated, Alexandros Tzorvas in the Greece goal was left shaking his head in disbelief. It was an early setback for Greece following their opening-day defeat by South Korea. They responded 13 minutes later when Karagounis, their captain, tried to chip Enyeama from distance but the goalkeeper was able to make a comfortable save. Then Karagounis floated in a corner only for the Liverpool defender Sotirios Kyrgiakos to send his header high over the bar. The match took a dramatic twist in the 34th minute when Nigeria were reduced to 10 men. Kaita was handed a straight red card by the referee, Oscar Ruiz, following a tussle with Torosidis. Kaita caught the defender with his studs after needlessly raising his foot. Otto Rehhagel, the Greece coach, reacted by bringing on the striker Georgios Samaras in place of the defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos two minutes later. Enyeama soon made a superb block from a shot by Salpigidis and Samaras had an effort cleared off the line by Rabiu Afolabi but a minute before the break Salpigidis scored the equaliser, his effort deflecting off a defender after Kostas Katsouranis had played the ball into his path. Nigeria made a confident start to the second half and Uche saw his clever cross palmed on to the roof of the net by Tzorvas in the 48th minute. Greece hit back and Kyrgiakos sent a header at the back post into the arms of Enyeama seven minutes later following a corner from Karagounis. They kept pushing forward and Theofanis Gekas’s close-range effort was parried by the goalkeeper just before the hour. Nigeria then launched a swift counterattack and Yakubu Ayegbeni’s shot was blocked by Tzorvas. The ball broke to the substitute Chinedu Obasi but he somehow managed to find the wrong side of the post when it seemed easier to score. Nigeria were again grateful to Enyeama in the 68th minute when he clawed away a powerful header from Samaras. Then came the mistake by the goalkeeper, although he did do well to beat away Tziolis’s effort in stoppage time to prevent Greece extending their lead.

World Cup 2010: World Cup 2010: Germany reap the rewards of the liberation generation

Joachim Löw has revitalised his squad with a fresh, bold multicultural approach When Sami Khedira and his Under-21 team‑mates held aloft the European Championship trophy last summer, after humbling England 4–0 in the final, they dreamed of changing the face of German football. Little did they know that their opportunity would come so quickly. After Euro 2008, Joachim Löw, the Germany manager, accepted the need to “rejuvenate” a squad that had become too heavily seasoned in parts. He has done so in spectacular fashion. Germany have only nine survivors from that tournament here. (It is worth remembering that they were runners-up in Austria and Switzerland.) And once Löw had done with filleting his squad, the players he turned to were almost all from the next generation. • Follow the Guardian’s World Cup team on Twitter • Sign up to play our great Fantasy Football game • Stats centre: Get the lowdown on every player • The latest team-by-team news, features and more Khedira, the U-21 captain during that heady campaign in Sweden, and five of his team‑mates, including Mesut Ozil, who had orchestrated the destruction of Stuart Pearce’s England, were given the call and so were four other youngsters who were eligible for the U-21 finals. Two of those, Thomas Müller and Holger Badstuber, were not selected for Sweden simply because they had not yet emerged from Bayern Munich’s reserves. Their progress over this past season has been startling. Löw’s squad bristles with the exuberance and fearlessness of youth. “Roughly half the squad is 24 or younger,” Löw said – the precise number is 12 – “and they bring a freshness and hunger that can only be helpful.” It was very much in evidence as Germany opened their Group
