Sancho also became the second Englishman to score in consecutive Champions League appearances for a non-English club, after Chris Sutton with Celtic in 2004. Dortmund's Julian Brandt has scored (two) or provided assists (three) for five Champions League goals this season; he had only scored or assisted once in his previous four seasons in the competition with former club Bayer Leverkusen before this (one goal, no assists in 21 appearances).
Pique has hit the ground and Umtiti is getting ready to come on for the final 10 minutes. That's a blow to the Catalans. That was the big moment! Messi was clean through, he was surely favourite to find the back of the net following the pass from Arthur, but Simon makes the save with his legs! What a save from the goalkeeper at this stage of the match! 90+3’ GOAL! Athletic Club 1-0 Barcelona: It's a winner right at the death! It's Williams! Athletic Club have surely won this! He got his head to a cross into the box and glanced the ball into the far corner of Ter Stegen's net! Barcelona's players have slumped to the ground! They know that this is likely the winner! Video - Juventus targeting two Premier League midfielders - Euro Papers01:33 KEY STATS This is the first time in 10 years (2010) that Barcelona have failed to reach the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.
England have made several changes for this match with Mako Vunipola, George Kruis, Jonathan Joseph, Lewis Ludlam and Willi Heinz all coming into the starting line-up. They have been working hard to erase the errors that cost them their opening game and coach Eddie Jones has set his side the target of dominating the gain line.
There is "no better time than now" to "correct" some of the issues around finances in football, says former Leeds chairman Peter Ridsdale. The 68-year-old, who also had spells as chairman at Barnsley and Cardiff, wants to see "some cash from the Premier League flowing down the leagues". All professional football in England has been suspended since 13 March because of the coronavirus pandemic. It has previously been said that the impact on clubs could be "devastating".
Argentino de Merlo will host Excursionistas for this fixture of the league. I expect, this will be a very interesting match. I expect, this will be a very tense match. I think, both teams want to get a positive result. Of course, the hosts will try to make a positive result on the home field. However, they are not convincing team. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. Also, we have Excursionistas who's is more ambitious team in this season. Also, Excursionistas are in better shape. They have three consecutive victories. I think, this will not be an easy task. Nevertheless, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium.
Deportivo Binacional are by far inexperienced in this competition and their real test will be in the first away match in the competition. They beat Santos at home in the first game, and will be keen to build on that. However, here they face a side so good at home in this competition, and with loads of experience. The advantage for Binacional is that they have been scoring regularly and we are backing them to score here but we don’t expect them to collect full points. A win for River Plate is a safer bet here and we will go for 2-1.
LONDON, Dec 21 (Reuters) - Wolverhampton Wanderers got back to winning ways as they punished relegation-threatened Norwich City with a second-half comeback to win 2-1 in the Premier League on Saturday.

The mentality and the fight in the second half was great but our game was not good enough. What was really, really good today was the fans in the stand. It was two easy mistakes and every small chance is a goal at the moment against us. We are all down today. When we talked with the players in the last couple of days, the feeling in the squad you'd say was 100% we would win this game today. The players said they wanted to do well and we had the confidence to play against Hamilton and take our responsibility.
Al Ahly is not only winning all the games played by them so far in league, Super Cup, or Champions League but they are demolishing their opponents won a game with no less than 9-0 at home in the Champions League and won big their last two league games as well as they are once more the best club in Egypt they have not played a game for a couple of weeks but they are for sure too much for the hosts to handle here and will back them to win this game here even by more than one goal difference.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic's penalty sparked a remarkable AC Milan comeback victory against title-chasing Juventus at the San Siro. After an uneventful first half, Milan scored four unanswered second-half goals having gone 2-0 down to Juve strikes from Adrien Rabiot and Cristiano Ronaldo. Ibrahimovic’s 62nd-minute penalty offered hope, before Franck Kessie and Rafael Leao completed a five-minute turnaround.
Ashgabat fc will be hosting Balkan fc, these teams have tied their last game at this venue by each of them netted two goals, which means they have recorded four goals. The home team have stirred joy into their fans after they have collected three points against Merw fc, they won with 1-0 scoreline and they have lost their last game at this venue when they clash against Kopetdang fc by conceding one goal. The visitors lost last away game to Kopetdag fc by one goal so from this statistics I opined that this game will end up with a draw and few goals to be recorded.

The idea behind that is to reassure a coach that they wouldn’t “lose” a substitute if they needed to replace a player with a head injury. This doesn’t deal with the problem, though. The injured player will still pretend to be fine, not wanting to leave the match; physios may feel pressured to give a quick thumbs-up when it is not warranted because they do not want to tinker with a game plan.
However, with games in hand on the sides around them and in excellent form, Barnet have every reason to believe they can launch a promotion assault and the gap between themselves and the play-offs could be down to just 1 point by the end of play on Saturday. With 4 consecutive wins behind them, the visitors will certainly be confident prior to making the short trip and 3 points is very clearly their objective.

Arsenal's matches had already seen a reduction in the number of goals scored at either end in their games since the appointment of Mikel Arteta however. Under 2.5 goals were scored in five of the six games the Gunners' have contested since the Spaniard's arrival, and on Saturday, Arsenal meet a Sheffield United team that see fewer goals than most in their matches.
Both sides will feel they had the chances to secure what would have been a big three points in their quest to secure a place in the Europa League. The Blades had enough of the play and chances, with Oli McBurnie denied by Nick Pope in the very first minute, and could have had a penalty had the VAR officials deemed Erik Pieters' accidental handling of the ball in the box a punishable offence. At the other end, Matej Vydra and Dwight McNeil both fired superb opportunities wide of goal for the Clarets.
However, as poor as their end-product has been, Burton have done an excellent job of both restricting teams and providing a last line of defence, as they've conceded just three goals in front of their own fans. Unsurprisingly, no team in League 1 has conceded fewer home goals.
On the other hand, Brighton scored a late goal to secure three points in a 2-1 win over Arsenal and will be hoping for another shocker here. For Leicester, right from the time the league was forced to stop in March, they were on a shaky patch. They have just two wins from their last nine league matches and have lost four.
Fulham manager Scott Parker told BBC Radio London: "I thought we were very, very good first half. And I thought second half we had some big chances but didn't capitalise. We weren't clinical enough in the first half. I thought everything we've worked on this week worked so well. But we won the game with another clean sheet, we looked pretty solid and for the majority of the game we played some good stuff.
We simply cannot understand why anyone would wish to talk up the possibility of claims and, in doing so, prejudice the position of every single SPFL member club," reads the letter. The league insists that any potential claim "does not result in any way" from the vote to allow the board to end the Premiership season early and reiterated that no decision on that has yet been taken. Those claims, it says, "can only ever be conjecture at this stage".
Manchester United have triggered a clause to extend midfielder Nemanja Matic's contract by one year. The 31-year-old, whose three-year contract was due to expire this summer, is also in talks with the club over lengthening the deal even further. Matic's recent form has encouraged United to extend his stay to 2021 and the Serb could remain beyond that. Matic has made 109 appearances for the Old Trafford club since joining from Chelsea in a £40m deal in 2017.

His performances this season, whether for the first team or under-23s, are testament to his hard work, dedication and to his character. We are pleased with the progress he has made since he stepped up from the academy. Chong added: "I am working hard every day to improve and I know this is the perfect environment to develop my game.

It's important because women are so often forgotten in this conversation," he said, emphasising the fact that females in Britain are more likely than men to suffer with dementia.

Shahin Bushehr will host Sanat Naft for this fixture of the league. I think, the hosts have a very difficult task. Of course, they want to win. However, Shahin Bushehr is worst team in the league. Hosts have low potential in attack. They have a very vulnerable defense. True, the hosts are undefeated in their last 4 matches - 4 draws in a row. In any case, they are not convincing team. Also, we have Sanat Naft who's is very average team in this season. However, the visitors have better team than their opponent. They have a chance to reach for one of the top four places in the table. My pick - Sanat Naft to win.
The Londoner put the club up for sale in 2017, and has in theory been trying to find a buyer since, but it seems the terms, or more likely the price, has not been right. Having bought the club for £134m in 2007, he stands to gain from the £300m deal although he will argue he has spent considerably more than the difference in the intervening years. Some sources suggest that Newcastle United has been a vehicle to promote his other businesses and that has no doubt provided value.
Emmen could only manage a draw away at the divisions’ bottom club RKC last time out, while PSV returned to winning ways at home against Heerenveen but sit eleven points behind the league leaders Ajax.

Coverage starts at 7pm on Eurosport.
This fixture features No. 10 vs No. 9 in the league, Partick Thistle vs Alloa Athletic. The hosts coming from a 2 - 1 home win over Greenock Morton (no. 8 in the league) and that is also their last home game. The visitors coming from a 2 - 1 home win to Dunfermline Athletic (No. 6 in the league) and their last away game a 2 - 1 loss to Arbroath. The hosts should win this one as they played a higher table team than the visitors scoring multiple goals and conceding one goal to win the match facing a team coming from playing a team above themselves and the hosts and scoring multiple goals and conceding one goal to win the match then losing their last away game to a team above themselves, scoring and conceding so an over 2.5 is best to tip here.
The Premier League is "as confident as we can be" about restarting in June, says chief executive Richard Masters. Players resumed training on Tuesday, the same day it was announced there had been six positive tests for coronavirus across three clubs. The Premier League, suspended on 13 March, had previously identified 12 June as a possible restart date. We've taken the first step," Masters told BBC Sport.
Their kits were designed and made by American denim giants Levi's. Boca Juniors 1981 This shirt screams Diego Maradona. It was the first shirt to feature Boca's four-star crest alongside their famous blue and gold colours. Adidas pulled it out of the bag with this one by producing a shirt that is still sought after almost four decades later. Belgium 1984 Although the 1984 European Championships were forgettable for the Belgians, who didn't make it out of the group, this shirt lives long in the memory.

They played in a system where they are very comfortable with, a system where they played for two years with Antonio Conte," Mourinho said. Lampard bristled at the suggestion. I'm not trying to clone anyone's system," he said. The way that I play, the message that I give is different. The players took the plan on incredibly well as we all saw.
The home team is playing pretty poorly this season and has only 20 points in 25 games. The guests are a little better however and I think they are underestimated by the bookies here and their chances should be much higher. Certainly a little luck will be needed.
