Liverpool, Man City face Real Madrid in Champions League, PSG get tough draw
The Mercury
|August 29, 2025
LIVERPOOL and Manchester City will both come up against Real Madrid in this season's Champions League, while titleholders Paris Saint-Germain were handed a daunting set of opponents in yesterday’s draw — including Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
-
Xabi Alonso’s Real Madrid will host City at the Santiago Bernabéu and also face Premier League champions Liverpool at Anfield, setting up two of the standout fixtures of the league phase.
Arne Slot’s Liverpool, who topped the league phase last season only to be eliminated by PSG in the last 16, will also host Atletico Madrid, PSV Eindhoven, and Qarabag of Azerbaijan at Anfield. Their away matches will be no less challenging, with trips to Inter Milan, Eintracht Frankfurt, Marseille, and Turkish champions Galatasaray on the cards.
City, the 2023 Champions League winners, will welcome Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, Italian champions Napoli, and Galatasaray to the Etihad Stadium. Their away games include clashes at Villarreal, Monaco, Real Madrid, and Norwegian newcomers Bodo/Glimt.

South Africa’s G20 moment exposes deep cracks at home and abroad
OUR COUNTRY is not in the space it should be in. As a host of G20 we would have loved to be a shining star that had dealt poverty a blow, a place where corruption was dealt with firmly, where children have a brighter future, taps are not only running but are oozing label blue water, with smooth streets, where women feel safe, and children are assured of a meal daily.

Hooray for my English teacher who taught me satire
FOR those pupils that played hooky to catch fish while educators were teaching \"metaphors\" \"irony\", \"sarcasm\", etc, and others who missed my tongue-in-cheek take in The Mercury last week regarding the \"swarms\" of Palestinians who would soon not only invade our free country, take-over all our green fields, set up their throne in New Pretoria, and even shunt all of us \"indigenous\" Indian, White and Black people into a fenced off area in the northern Cape, after the international powers that be justified all of that, by \"just saying\" that the \"Palestinians were always here\" and were, in present-time, actually experiencing a holocaust of their own, back home, so really deserved to be freely commuted here: Excuse me!
