Scoring the winner in London, top scorer Timo Werner ended his own five-game goal drought in all competitions. I had not scored in the last few games and I had also missed some chances before the penalty," Werner said. That did not make the penalty any easier but I really wanted to take it and I stayed calm.
Jack Grealish: Aston Villa desperately needed these points although it did come at a price. Jack Grealish was once again the driving force behind this impressive away victory at Turf Moor. The goal by the Villa captain was beautifully taken and enough to put the game beyond Burnley. However, I thought the tackle by Ben Mee, which resulted in Wesley being carried off, was a heavy challenge and went unpunished.
She kept 10 clean sheets for City, who finished second on a points-per-game formula when the Women's Super League season was brought to an early conclusion by the coronavirus pandemic. Chelsea also won the League Cup, with England scoring a last-minute winner. Hayes said of her award: "This trophy is about the whole group, so a big thank you to the players for stepping up another level and thanks once again to our fans for being the best in the world.
From the best player to the biggest meltdown, here's our completely unofficial and by no means deadly serious list. Premier League player of the year - Jamie Vardy Vardy is the top scorer in the Premier League this season with 17 goalsJamie Vardy has been a player reborn in 2019. By the end of last year, Vardy's goalscoring record looked every bit that of a player heading into his twilight years as he reached Christmas with six goals in the first half of the 2018-19 season.
They moved the ball quicker, pressed better and had more players on the pitch who could damage the home side, even if this was only by sticking their head in where it hurts as Iheanacho did to reduce the deficit. Jamie Vardy was involved in the build-up to the goal but he was otherwise given very little to work with as he more vainly went in pursuit of a 100th Premier League goal. Leicester's race is far from run, though, with this unorthodox, condensed end to the season meaning the chance to rectify matters is only ever a few days away.
They have also lost more points from winning positions than any other Premier League side this season (12), bringing into question whether the players had the motivation to fight on their manager's behalf. And, for a club with Champions League aspirations and one now settled into a world-class stadium, it is perhaps this final statistic that sealed Pochettino's fate. Tottenham's tally of 14 points is their lowest after 12 games of a Premier League season in 11 years.
Cardiff have won every meeting at home to sides with a bottom-half away record this term. They’ve produced impressive wins, with only high-flying away sides getting something here. Preston have a points haul on the road which is better than only six sides in the division. With the hosts in fine form, they are our pick on this clash. We’re backing a Cardiff win, while we are tipping the hosts to win 2-0 with Preston failing to score in each of their last three on the road.
I assumed that would be the case with Theo and he showed glimpses of what he could do. He was electric in training with loads of pace but obviously still very raw. He will have a lot of footage of it because every time I saw him he had a handheld camera, walking around Baden-Baden taking in the sights. He took a lot of photos and he seemed to be enjoying it. We all tried to look after him as best we could and there was a big spotlight on him.
Bayern Munich have won nine of their last ten league games. Bayern Munich have won eight out of 12 away league fixtures. Bayern Munich have scord 20 goals in their last five away league games. Union Berlin have already lost 13 league games this season. The season may have started slowly for Bayern Munich but the defending champions again top the Bundesliga.
With most of the squad away on international duty when Pochettino was sacked, the Argentine manager did not get to say farewell to the players and a number of them visited him at his house the day after. When I found out I was upset and I wanted to speak to him. I went to see him," Alli added. I've seen him more than my family over the past five years.
I would really like to speak to him," Ljungberg told a news conference on Tuesday. I'm in contact with him but I haven't spoken to him because it's been a bit hectic, but it's on my list to do so. No signings for Guardiola, maybe for Klopp? Liverpool are open to bringing in players in the January transfer window, says Jurgen Klopp - but Pep Guardiola says Manchester City won't.
The result means Real Madrid can establish a three-point lead at the top of La Liga with a win over Real Valladolid on Sunday night. Setien will now face some questions over the poor performance of his team. TALKING POINT - Maybe Ernesto Valverde wasn’t Barcelona’s problem after all? Three games into the Setien era at Barcelona and concerns are already starting to grow.
He turned down a move to English League One side Oxford United in January and has found himself with fewer options than he might have expected. There were a few options before and I was just sitting tight. Now they are, not so much off the table, but have maybe just dropped back a wee bit because budgets are getting reassessed. Hopefully I will have options, but time will tell. There is no point getting hung up on it, there are far more important things going on in the world and I am fortunate I have a good family around me.
West Ham have failed to win any of their last five Premier League matches. Manchester City have failed to score in back-to-back games for the first time under Pep Guardiola. Manchester City have won their last six meetings with West Ham by an aggregate score of 20-3. This Premier League weekend pits Manchester City against West Ham at the Etihad.
Mitrovic is the joint-top scorer in the Championship this season with 23 goals. Fulham have lost both of their matches since the Championship's resumption on 20 June, leaving Scott Parker's side fifth in the table and seven points below the automatic promotion places. Mitrovic will miss Tuesday's west London derby at Queens Park Rangers, as well as Fulham's home game with Birmingham City and their trip to fellow promotion contenders Nottingham Forest.
When Caldwell was at Chesterfield in 2017 he could sense the end was nigh, and he was right. Kind of. A 5-1 defeat by Stoke City resulted in a pitchside conversation with the club's chief executive, who told him the owner had "had enough", which Caldwell accepted. After that, the analyst came out the dressing room and said the players wanted to speak to the chief exec," the former Scotland captain says.

Uefa is to hold a video conference on Tuesday to decide whether to call off this summer's European Championship finals, which are due to start on 12 June, while Premier League clubs will use Uefa's decision to shape their revised plans for the English top flight on Thursday. I do think the domestic leagues are the most important," Jenas added. It's impossible to please everybody, and only 50% of the Premier League clubs would be happy if the league was to finish right now.
Dinamo Brest will host BATE Borisov for this fixture of the league. Both teams are one of the ambitious teams in this campaign. However, BATE have better results in this season. BATE Borisov are currently on the 1st position with 19 points. Also, BATE are in solid shape. They have four consecutive victories. In previous game BATE is won 3-0 against Slutsk. Also, we have Dinamo Brest who's is very unpredictable team in this season. They are currently on the 7th place with 13 points. Nevertheless, the hosts have the potential to provide a strong resistance. Maybe this is - draw
We will see how it turns out Thursday night, and if it's fun and it's working then maybe we will do it again at the next game. Any abusive language will result in expulsion from the meeting by a moderator. The same rule goes for Zoom as it does at the stadium," added Carlsen. We will have some digital stewards and they will be monitoring it, just like the social media platforms at the club. So they can make sure that you don't see anything that you're not supposed to see, and you don't hear any profanities.
I hope he will play before the end of the year, but I am not going to push him. I can't risk any setbacks or injuries," Solskjaer said. Solskjaer did say the Watford game might come to soon for Pogba but the 26-year-old travelled with the rest of the United squad on Saturday and could end his 17-game absence at Vicarage Road. The Manchester United manager also said Pogba would not be sold in January.
the Maroons fc team and the Soana fc team, go head to head in Uganda Premier League. The Maroons fc team is in 10th position with 23 points Collected. While guest team the Soana fc team came in 15th place by collecting 16 points Collected.
Yet, United won. They won, in this observer's opinion, because they had belief. A belief instilled by a manager who had instilled a siege mentality. United against the world. It worked. At Tottenham, Mourinho has instilled a blame mentality; blame anything but the processes he has instilled the club.
Spal and Cagliari will face each other in the upcoming match in the Serie A. Spal this season have the following results: 5W, 3D and 18L. Meanwhile Cagliari have 8W, 8D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

Over 1.5 goals have been scored in 89% of Cambuurs’ home games as well as in 90% of Volendam’s away games this season which is why we are confident that both teams will score this Friday. The visitors haven’t kept a clean sheet on the road this season and both teams have scored in 70% of their away games, while 56% of Cambuur’s home games have also produced goals at both ends of the pitch. Cambuur have only failed to score in 22% of their home games in the Eerste Divisie so far and Volendam have only drawn a blank in 30% of their away games.
Their biggest threat in the first half came down the left side where Barnes's pace was boosted by some fine crossing by England under-19 international Thomas, who had already picked out Perez for a close-range header before he supplied the Spaniard's eighth goal of the season. Filling in for the injured Ben Chilwell, who has been linked with a move to Chelsea, Thomas showed his manager Rodgers that he is a more than capable back-up.
Reaction & follow semi-final draw liveAn ugly but precious win for CelticAfter the anguish of Thursday night and the fury that followed their Europa League exit, Celtic's followers demanded their team rise from the canvas. Another treble is craved - indeed, expected - by a fan base that has grown accustomed to lavish fare and supremacy in Scottish football. For long spells, they laid siege to the St Johnstone goal, the team who had not beaten the champions since 2016, not scored against them in 10 games and conceded 30 without reply standing firm, their net protected by the outrageously good Clark.
Borussia Dortmund's Marco Reus and Jadon Sancho also scored two apiece in a 5-0 demolition of Fortuna Duesseldorf as their side moved up to third place on 26. It was another wasteful performance from Bayern who should have scored several goals in a dominant first half through Thomas Mueller and top scorer Robert Lewandowski.
Sheff Utd v Aston VillaIt feels like every time I tip Sheffield United to win - like I did for their last home game, against Newcastle - they end up getting beaten. And every time I back their opponents to get something out of the game - like I did last weekend when they played Norwich - the Blades win. The latter has been a far more frequent occurrence so far this season, and Chris Wilder's side have impressed everyone since their arrival in the top flight.

We’re confident that a double chance bet on Groningen will payout on Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0. The hosts head into this game as the form favourites despite sitting below Utrecht in the table. Groningen have a good record at home and look to be playing Utrecht at an opportune time as the visitors have failed to score in their last three outings all of which have ended in defeat.
The hosts have failed to score in four of their six home games conceding at a rate of just over two goals per fixture, whilst three of the visitors' five victories this term have been by a two goal margin. Considering the difference between these teams in the league table, we think Getafe should secure a win here by another comfortable margin, so 0-2 is our correct score prediction.
CORONAVIRUS CORNER There were concerting developments in Italy over the weekend with multiple matches postponed, including the big Derby d’Italia between Juventus and Inter on Sunday. Italy’s struggle to contain their Coronavirus outbreak has seen the government impose bans on sporting events in some regions.
Los Blancos' will be riding high after their Supercopa exploits, which extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 16 (W11, D5). Furthermore, Real have yet to be beaten at the Bernabeu this term, winning seven and drawing five of their 12 outings thus far.
Jesse Lingard provides attacking options but showed another side of his game by effectively neutralising City's deep midfielder Rodri. Defensively, United showed a solidity that hasn't always been there this season but they still needed outstanding saves from their Spanish keeper David De Gea to leave with the three points.
Braga have not beaten Porto in their last eight meetings. Braga have no clean sheet in the last seven matches. Braga have scored in 12 of their last 15 matches. Porto have eight straight home wins. Porto have not lost any of the last 14 home matches. FC Porto will be back to Primeira Liga action when they host Sporting Braga on Friday.
Clearly we are expecting that our media contracts will increase. It is a very unique time in the landscape of media. We are entirely upside down compared to all the other leagues. Media as it relates to our revenues is frankly the smallest piece of the puzzle and I believe going forward that will change.
The use of VAR has been surrounded by controversy and many fans feel it goes far beyond its original remit — to review the most glaring mistakes — and that decisions are taking too long. In the English Premier League, where VAR was introduced this season, critics have complained that the video referees -- who watch the game on monitors in an enclosed room -- have been taking the main decisions rather than officials on the pitch.
Villa are a good team, fighting to stay in the division, self-esteem really high after reaching the Wembley (League Cup) final. Very difficult match, we have to go with all the potential we have, forgetting that two days after we play Leipzig. Mourinho was asked about Dele Alli's social media message mocking the coronavirus outbreak in China, a post the midfielder quickly deleted and apologised for but which could still land him in trouble with the Football Association.
But Wolves hit back after the break when Romain Saiss headed powerfully home. Jimenez then snatched victory for the visitors when he fired in after Tim Krul had denied Matt Doherty. It was a disappointing result for Norwich, who could have been out of sight in the first half after Teemu Pukki was twice denied when one on one with keeper Rui Patricio, while Alex Tettey hit the post. The Canaries remain in 19th place but Southampton's win against Aston Villa means the Saints move up to 17th, six points clear of Norwich.
Czech Republic, round 29 and I bet on the match between the dynamo SK Ceske Budejovice vs Teplice. The host is placed in 8th place with 40 points and so far scores 12W 4D 12L, and guests are in 12th place with 28 points and marks 6W 10D 12L.
Joshua Sargent replaces Leonardo Bittencourt. SubstitutionPosted at 62' Substitution, SV Werder Bremen. Fin Bartels replaces Milot Rashica. The Premier League is back on Wednesday night with Manchester City one of the four teams to take to the pitch for the first time since football was suspended because of the coronavirus outbreak. Pep Guardiola's side host Arsenal (20:15 BST) after Aston Villa play Sheffield United and, before the top flight's return, ex-Manchester City defender Micah Richards caught up with Raheem Sterling on BBC Radio 5 live to get the City and England forward's thoughts on what it will be like playing again after three months without football.
But he says no goal, no win, no amount of joy the game brought him compares to what he is now trying to achieve. This is much bigger than anything to do with football," he added. This is something to really be proud of, helping a nation in need. It is something that makes my family proud. This is a huge problem and I can't solve it, but if I can help a little bit and everyone chips in an little bit, then we will come out the other side okay as a county.

Liverpool are clearly the favorites here; they will head to this game seeking to extend their unbeaten league run and having a good run over Watford over the past few meetings, we expect them to flourish. Watford have not done so well this season but in their recent home matches, they have shown some determination to win. Going to this game, Watford hope to gain something to help in their survival push and we expect them to go for the kill. As for Liverpool, with the FA Cup game against Chelsea ahead of them and the Champions League return against Atletico, Jurgen Klopp may want to rest a few key players. They are very close to winning the league title and the manager may want to shift focus to the cup games. Still, we feel they will be stronger than Watford, just not the way it has been in the past few meetings. We will go with a 2-0 win for Liverpool.
Arsenal conceded three first half goals in a home Premier League game for only the second time - the other was also against Man City in March 2018. Arsenal had just six shots in their 3-0 defeat to Manchester City - their fewest in a home Premier League game since December 2008 against Liverpool (also six).
