Players' futures not on the line - Zidane

Zinedine Zidane said his players were not playing for their futures at Real Madrid and leapt to the defence of struggling veteran Marcelo after his side succumbed to a 2-1 defeat away to a resurgent Valencia side on Wednesday.

Real fell 13 points behind La Liga leaders Barcelona after their ninth league loss of the campaign – the first since Zidane's return – and are expected to shake up their squad significantly at the end of what has been a torrid season.

The 33-time Spanish champions are 10 points clear of fourth-placed Getafe in the league and Zidane said performances in their last eight games would have no bearing on who stayed and who departed.

"This final stretch of games is no exam, we have to deal with bad moments like this but it is not going to change a thing," Zidane told a news conference.

"We were playing against a very good Valencia side who had a lot at stake, and perhaps that was the difference."

Brazilian Marcelo has come in for heavy criticism this season, losing his place in the side to Sergio Reguilon before being brought back in by Zidane when the Frenchman took charge for his second spell as coach in March.

The 30-year-old defender produced another shaky display against Valencia but Zidane spoke up for a player who played a key role in his trophy-laden first tenure.

"Marcelo is Marcelo and I like the way he plays," he said.

"I think he is doing well, he is training hard and he is committed. He is not the only one who has had a difficult season."

Real's hopes of winning a trophy this season were extinguished last month when they went out of the Champions League at the hands of Ajax Amsterdam and suffered successive defeats to Barcelona in the league and the Copa del Rey.

Zidane conceded it was difficult for the players to remain focused for the remainder of the campaign but urged them to get back on track for Saturday's game at home to Eibar.

"We are at a very difficult moment in what has been a very difficult season, we are losing concentration and it's tough for everyone," Zidane added.

"Right now all I can say is I'm right behind my players and they're going to keep fighting until the end. A lot will be said in these next two months but we're going to finish well and look forward to next season."

'Exceptional' Foden key to Man City future - Guardiola

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola expects Phil Foden to play a key role in the side over the next decade and says the 18-year-old will be more involved in the first team next season.

The Stockport-born teenager, who has been with the club since the age of eight, made his first Premier League start in City's 2-0 win over Cardiff City on Wednesday.

"I'm happy with the way he plays. He could have scored two goals, he's exceptional," Guardiola told reporters.

Several highly rated teenagers, frustrated at limited involvement, have moved on in search of regular first-team football but Foden signed a new City contract until 2024 in December and Guardiola said the midfielder would get his chance.

"It's not easy for him with (David) Silva, Bernardo (Silva), (Ilkay) Gundogan, (Kevin) De Bruyne, but he wants to be here, he's delighted to be here," he added.

"I assure you next year he will play more minutes. That's the process. For the next decade he will be important."

 Early Life of Lionel Andrés Messi
    Lionel Andrés Messi was born on 24 June 1987 in Rosario as above, the third of four children of Jorge Messi, a steel factory manager, and his wife Celia Cuccittini, who worked in a magnet manufacturing workshop. On his father's side, he is of Italian and Spanish descent, the great-grandson of immigrants from marche and Catalonia, and on his mother's side, he has primarily Italian ancestry.Growing up in a tight-knit, football-loving family, "Leo" developed a passion for the sport from an early age, playing constantly with his older brothers, Rodrigo and Matías, and his cousins,Maximiliano and Emmanuel Biancucchi, both of whom became professional footballers.At the age of four he joined local club Grandoli, where he was coached by his father, though his earliest influence as a player came from his maternal grandmother, Celia, who accompanied him to training and matches.He was greatly affected by her death, shortly before his eleventh birthday; since then, as a devout Catholic, he has celebrated his goals by looking up and pointing to the sky in tribute of his grandmother."When you saw him you would think: this kid can't play ball. He's a dwarf, he's too fragile, too small. But immediately you'd realise that he was born different, that he was a phenomenon and that he was going to be something impressive."—Newell's Old Boys youth coach Adrian Cori shares his first impression of the 12-year-old Messi.A lifelong supporter of Newell's Old Boys, Messi joined the Rosario club when he was six years old. During the six years he played for Newell's, he scored almost 500 goals as a member of "The Machine of '87", the near-unbeatable youth side named for the year of their birth, and regularly entertained crowds by performingball tricks during half-time of the first team's home games.However, his future as a professional player was threatened when, at age 10, he was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency. As his father's health insurance covered only two years ofgrowth hormone treatment, which cost at least $1,000 per month, Newell's agreed to contribute, but later reneged on their promise. He was scouted by Buenos 
Aires club river Plate, whose playmaker,Pablo Aimar, he idolised, but they were also unable to pay for his treatment due to the country'seconomic collapse

HISTORY OF COREL DRAW

CorelDraw(styledCorelDRAW) is avector graphics editor developed and marketed by Corel Corporation. It is also the name ofCorel's Graphics Suite, which bundles CorelDraw with bitmap-image editorCorel Photo-Paint as well as other graphics-related programs (see below). The latest version is designated X8 (equivalent to version 18), and was released in March 2016.CorelDraw is designed to edit two-dimensional images such as logos and posters.

In 1987, Corel hired software engineers Michel Bouillon and Pat Beirne to develop a vector-based illustration program to bundle with their desktop publishing systems. That program, CorelDraw, was initially released in 1989. CorelDraw 1.x and 2.x ran under Windows 2.x and 3.0. CorelDraw 3.0 came into its own with Microsoft's release of Windows 3.1. The inclusion ofTrueTypein Windows 3.1 transformed CorelDraw into a serious illustration program capable of using system-installed outline fonts without requiring third-party software such asAdobe Type Manager; paired with a photo-editing program (Corel Photo-Paint), a fontmanager and several other pieces of software, it was also part of the first all-in-one graphics suite.
