Yaw Dabo cries over Real Madrid's UCL elimination
Yaw Dabo took to his TikTok account to react to the elimination of Real Madrid from the UEFA Champions League.
At the beginning of the video, the Kumawood actor wept uncontrollably as he cried out about why his team lost again in the second leg to Arsenal.
"The haters have gotten hold of us," he said in the video while wiping tears off his face.
Referencing Real Madrid's rivals, Barcelona, as Yaa Asantewaa Girls, he lamented about Barcelona not giving Real Madrid breathing space and mentioned that Los Blancos received so much hate from their fans and supporters.
Dabo, a staunch Real Madrid fan, noted that the hate Barcelona fans have towards his favourite team is what has pushed the team backwards.
"In this Champions League tournament that we are all competing in, one team has harboured nothing but hate against us from the very start — Yaa Asantewaa Girls. Despite us all being part of the same competition, you have only managed to secure five victories. And as for the other contender, Arsenal, who has fiercely battled alongside us, they have not won a single one," he said.
Towards the end of the video, Yaw Dabo cried out, singing, "Never give up" while holding and shaking firmly the badge on the Real Madrid jersey.
He noted that the team would come back stronger and that Arsenal and other haters of the club would never win the UCL, no matter what they did.

"Real Madrid losing was expected" - Bill Eshun
Ghanaian sports journalist Bill Eshun spoke to YEN.com.gh about Real Madrid failing to make a comeback in the second leg of the UCL quarterfinals
He noted that Real Madrid not making it to the semifinals of the UCL was expected. He explained that in the 2024/2025 season, the club have not been so great.
"They have lost a number of home games, some away games and they look disjointed in attack," he said.
He explained that adding Mbappe was great considering his quality but he noted that it sort of distorted the team in some way.
Explainging further, he said Bellingham played in the previous season as number 9 and it worked quite well. However, in this season, he has had to draw back and play a different role so they have not found that connection.
"It was not surprising to me and Arsenal are monsters when it comes to defending. They could have played the whole day, and Real Madrid would not have scored a goal against Arsenal in both legs," he said.
UEFA clarifies dismissal of Real Madrid’s penalty
YEN.com.gh reported that the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) officially addressed the controversy surrounding Real Madrid’s denied penalty during their clash with Arsenal.
Following an early penalty awarded to the Gunners, Madrid believed they had earned a spot-kick of their own after a contested moment in the box. Their appeal, however, sparked a lengthy VAR check.
After a thorough review, French referee Francois Letexier ultimately overturned the initial decision, leaving Madrid fans frustrated and fueling debates across social media platforms.
