Some will argue that it’s part of the game, that players effectively have two lives each time they step onto the pitch and are therefore entitled to scissor someone down. But does it make for a better spectacle? And more importantly, does any yellow card offence?" RETRO CORNER On this day in 2010, Manchester United are knocked out of the Champions League by Bayern Munich, after Rafael was sent off and Arjen Robben scored a quite brilliant volley to clinch the tie.
When this pair met at the Riverside less than a fortnight ago, Spurs dominated the ball, while they were the much better team in terms of shots, but in terms of serious threat and end-product, they weren't much better than their Championship hosts, which is slightly worrying.

Is she back to her best?Nobbs said in September she was facing a "long-term process" of recovery and Neville said last month England have taken "a gentle approach" with her.

It would not be unfair to wonder if the side would have been more coherent not if he were replaced, but if he simply walked off the pitch. Worryingly for Martial, there are replacements on the sidelines. Mason Greenwood is too young to play every game, and Solskjaer clearly does not want to hold back his talent by exacting too much pressure on him.
But at the same time we have to stay balanced ourselves, we can't just attack and attack or we will concede one and if we concede one we will have to score three, which makes it very difficult. Urawa welcome back goalkeeper Shusaku Nishikawa, who missed the first game due to suspension, while Al Hilal expect Saudi Arabia midfielder Mohamed Kanno to feature as he continues his return from a hip injury.

Nice closed out 2019 in steady fashion with four wins and two draws in their final eight games. Le Gym scored seven goals in their final three matches with two dominant wins over Toulouse (3-0) and Metz (4-1). They have recently been getting into a good rhythm of scoring a lot at home with four wins and a draw in their last five at the Allianz Riviera and 13 goals along the way. They've conceded just three times in this period and will be looking to take this form into 2020.
Dinamo Zagreb are unbeaten in five Champions League matches at home, but considering some of those were in the qualification stage, it may not count for much here. City on the other hand, have not had the best of runs lately, but we feel they will still be favorites here. City have already secured top spot, but considering their quality against Dinamo Zagreb, we don’t expect that they will lose. They are unbeaten in six Champions League matches, and have just one loss in seven away matches in the competition. We are backing Manchester City for a win here.
Neville has urged Solskjaer to be "selfish" by spending the club's money to buy "two or three experienced players". But the Norwegian says he could "never do that" and is "happy" with his current squad. I have those conversations with Ed all the time and we are looking at how we are going to look in one month's time, five months' time, in the longer period," added Solskjaer. He knows my feelings and we know our feelings.
Benfica have won four of their last five matches against Maritimo and each of the host’s last five wins against Maritimo have been accompanied by clean sheets.

Duel between very similar rivals by power, that are not having much differences in the point score and position at the league table. They are going to face each other after having losing their recent games and will try avoiding another defeat here.

Liverpool team-mates Virgil van Dijk and Sadio Mane, Manchester City's Kevin de Bruyne and Manchester United's Marcus Rashford also finished in the top five. On Wednesday Henderson, who is recovering from a knee injury, received the Premier League trophy from Reds legend Sir Kenny Dalglish at a near-empty Anfield. Henderson added: "I accept [the award] on behalf of this whole squad, because without them I'm not in a position to be receiving this honour.
It's just important that you trust in your own process and that if it's meant to be it will happen," said England. You have to learn when it's right to be critical and when to just give yourself a break because we're still human beings at the end of the day and as much as you want to win everything, sometimes it is just not meant to be. This is a tough environment to be in - any sport is. You make a lot of sacrifices and there are a lot of things that you feel you give up and not necessarily get the rewards for.
It was a clear penalty [to us]. VAR has to be the same for both sides. October - Norwich 1-3 Man UtdMatch reportWhat happened?

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says Shkodran Mustafi will have a scan after he was taken off on a stretcher in their FA Cup fourth-round win at Bournemouth. The German defender landed awkwardly on his ankle after a collision with Gunners goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.

They will want attacking football, but at the very least they will expect to move up the table from 14th position. He has not lost his opening game at any club since his very first match as a manager, when Benfica lost to Boavista in September 2000. Jose Mourinho's first game in charge of each club he has managed - all were in the league bar Inter Milan (an Italian Super Cup penalty shootout win over Roma) and Manchester United (a Community Shield win over Leicester)Since then he has won his opening match with Porto, Chelsea - twice - and Manchester United, and drawn at the start of his time with Uniao de Leiria, Inter Milan (although they won on penalties) and Real Madrid.
All this stuff can impact individuals and lead to issues. Gambling is also having a big impact on people because it's so easy to access these days. But Bloom said that football was "10-15 years behind" other sports like cricket and rugby union when it came to player welfare. He hoped that the conference would help educate clubs about the benefits of having a sports psychotherapist embedded with the team, and how it differed from sports psychology.
Brighton are not exactly going great either and I am a bit worried about my old team because they do not seem to be able to kill sides off. The Seagulls are easy on the eye and more attack-minded under Graham Potter than they were under his predecessor Chris Hughton but they still don't score enough goals. I admire the fact Potter likes to play out from the back but his side don't appear to have a great deal of guile in midfield and the way they play just allows teams to sit in against them.
These are two clubs from the second league of South Korea which usually end up their seasons on the bottom two places in the league and the start of the season sees them both without a single win in their opening 4 games played by them the hosts having two draws on the road a decent 2-2 draw away at current league leaders from Daejeon as well as a 1-1 draw away from home at Jeonnam who had not conceded a goal till that point. But also two home losses first with Bucheon which is really very defensive minded losing just 1-0 and second much bigger loss at home with Suwon City with no less than 5-0 in the end, so they have conceded in all their games so far so for sure not that great defending on their side.

We have taken my husband Rustu to hospital with a COVID-19 diagnosis. While everything was normal, we are still in shock by the sudden and rapidly developing symptoms," Isil Recber said on her Instagram account, adding that her and her two children had all tested negative. Rustu, who is Turkey's most-capped player having made 120 international appearances, shone as they reached the semi-finals at the 2002 World Cup.
With experienced players like Christian Eriksen and Danny Rose leaving the club, Mourinho was frank about the team's struggles and the issues that a predominantly young side could face without the guidance of older players. There is always a capital of experience that is needed in a team of young players," Mourinho told reporters on Friday.
The connection between the players and the fans was very good. The rebuild began after staying up - not immediately but you felt something was happening and this was happening in the Europa League. Everyone bought into Roy's methodology. We had the right mix, attitude and it came to its peak in that season. We had the work rate, the work ethic, training details. Players and fans grew with it and it came off the back of having a great previous season.
Former Fifa executives took bribes in return for voting for Russia and Qatar to host the World Cup, according to US prosecutors.

The documents claim several former Fifa executive committee members "were offered or received bribes in connection with their votes".

Jordan Pickford then allowed a routine shot from Christian Benteke squirm through his legs for the Belgian's first goal in 34 appearances as Palace restored parity after the interval, and moments later the 29-year-old unwittingly struck the post. Just when it looked like Everton were on the ropes, however, the hosts took the lead through a fine solo goal from Richarlison on the break, the Brazilian netting his 11th goal of the season after a lung-busting run.
We never give up. The team is always there, that is my feeling," Guardiola told reporters. You (the media) analyse the result. Of course, it's not good for us. I know it doesn't count but I have to analyse the performance. The performance was good. City will have a chance to get back on track when they visit Burnley on Tuesday before rivals Manchester United head for the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
Southampton grabbed the early advantage at Villa Park after Shane Long chased down a long ball behind the Villa backline, but his effort was parried by goalkeeper Tom Heaton, only for Ings to score from the rebound. The visitors doubled their lead on the half-hour mark after a James Ward-Prowse corner found an unmarked Jack Stephens, who headed the ball into the bottom right corner.
The visitors are coming into this one following eight defeats in their 10 trips this season. The visitors have conceded twice in five of their last six on the road, while their poor away run this term has seen them ship 2.1 goals per trip. That form is a concern with Millwall playing so well.
Barrow boss Evatt said he felt his side not being promoted would be 'harsh' and the numbers seem to agree. So does the league promote two sides or does just one side go up to League Two to replace the void left by Bury? Do the play-offs still happen and if so how and who qualifies? With players' contracts starting to run out what sort of sides could clubs field when restrictions are eased? Even if restrictions are eased, would the games be played in front of fans or would they be behind closed doors?Could the play-offs be a tournament held at one locked-down venue? Or would there still be potentially long away trips for sides and the fear of spreading the virus?What about relegation? Apart from Chorley the other sides in the relegation places still had realistic mathematical chances of staying up.
This season, the goal is the Champions League. My priority is PSG, with maximum involvement each week. The goal is to always win the next game. In every game, we have to fight for the club. That's how I see it. Real Madrid eye Camavinga swoop Spanish giants Real Madrid have reportedly intensified their interest in Eduardo Camavinga, despite Rennes slapping a €100million (£84m) price tag on the teenager.
To avoid any unnecessary health risks and also situations of potential sporting unfairness, we therefore recommend that all international matches previously scheduled to take place in March and April should now be postponed.

The return of David Moyes to the London Stadium wasn’t exactly met with rapturous applause from the West Ham fans, but the Scottish manager certainly made an impression on the squad as they thrashed Bournemouth 4-0 in their first game of 2020.
It has still yet to be decided whether these seasons are to be voided. A planned restructure of the non-league system has now been delayed until 2021-22. In women's football, tiers three to seven have also ended. Some men's teams, such as Jersey Bulls and Vauxhall Motors, had already secured promotion to step five of the non-league pyramid, but their promotions will now be cancelled. Jersey Bulls had won all 27 of their matches in the Combined Counties Football League Division One and were 20 points clear at the top.
Two very strong teams, teams that already at the start of the season showed their game in attack, and already have some positive series of several matches. Moreover, they stand high in the table, in my opinion on the third and fourth line if I'm not mistaken. True, I don’t really believe in a draw, I confess right away, but I also can’t decide on someone’s victory so that the odds suit me. And since I have minus about twenty thousand in my current tournament, and only two days remain, I have no choice but to shoot three-plus bets like this. If this bet does not enter, then you need to wait for the next tournament
Inter have already shown they can handle the weight of a big occasion in their last Champions League home game, securing a very important 2-0 win over Dortmund. The side are looking very powerful at the San Siro in general and have lost just once their all season, winning 6 times in the process, so confidence can be high coming into Tuesday's game.
He signed a two-year deal when he took over from Valverde but could lose his job if a new president is appointed and wants to bring his own head coach, perhaps Xavi. What does it mean for Messi? Like the majority of Barcelona supporters, Messi appears to be frustrated with the way the club is being run and this latest statement is his way of challenging the hierachy.
Bale remains committed to Real Madrid, says Courtois Gareth Bale is still committed to life at Real Madrid despite a failure to repair his deteriorating relationship with manager Zinedine Zidane, according to Thibaut Courtois. Bale celebrated Wales' qualification for Euro 2020 by posing for cameras behind a flag that read 'Wales, Golf, Madrid' - a reference to the player's alleged lack of interest in playing for the club and preference for the gold course over the Bernabeu.
With just seconds remaining, the Gabon international missed from about six yards out. When asked after the match what had gone wrong for him, he replied: "I don't even know. It can happen but I do not know how I missed this chance. I was tired, I had some cramps but it is not an excuse. Speaking after the match, Gunners boss Mikel Arteta said: "It hurts a lot.

Motherwell's Declan Gallagher and Rangers' Ryan Jack were shown yellow cards after a half-time confrontation, and Morelos soon received the first of his two yellows for a late challenge on Jake Carroll. Gillespie pushed away Ryan Kent's drive, and at the other end Allan McGregor also had to produce heroics - throwing up an arm to push away Long's header from two yards out. It was to prove a crucial moment, with Morelos making it 2-0 when he collected Aribo's cross, stepped away from Gallagher, and drove the ball into the net.
