OFF THE BAR! Djenepo runs Fredericks again, and this time cuts his cross back to Ings. The ball pops up after Ings controls it and he lashes a volley against the bar! It bounces down and out, and Long can only put the rebound into the side-netting. GREAT SAVE! A wonderful inswinging cross from Antonio on the left finds Haller, who heads it at the bottom corner from six yards out and McCarthy brilliantly palms it wide.
But everything was going through Fernandes on Sunday and he was very comfortable with that. He was telling his team-mates what he wanted and he looks like a leader as well, so that is another thing he brings to the table that United needed. For his goal, I liked the fact that straight after he was fouled he was saying, 'Give me the ball, I want the penalty'. And the way he took a little skip before casually stroking home the penalty was more proof that he has got a bit of arrogance about him.

Prior to their last match against Wolfsburg, Hertha had done reasonably well since returning from the winter break, though they had little to shout about after Saturday's match. Having lost by a goal to nil on that occasion, the hosts will be looking to bounce back.
What has really impressed about Salzburg is the way in which they’ve got at teams, played without fear and scored plenty of goals. It’s no fluke that Jesse Marsch’s men have scored more goals than each of the other three sides in Group E. The Austrians have adopted a forward-thinking approach at every turn.
It's incredible how he still has the patience to be a manger at his age," Guardiola said. It's incredible and he's doing really well. We can't forget the situation when he took over when they had zero points and everyone considered them relegated. Instead of that, he did an incredible job and it's a pleasure and an honour for me every time I get to see him.

But since beating Manchester United at home on Sept. West Ham looked woefully low on confidence against a Leicester side showing nine changes to the line-up beaten by Liverpool 48 hours earlier but who were still far too good for the hosts. Fans made their frustrations clear on Saturday, jeering Pellegrini's substitutions of Haller and Manuel Lanzini.

Winning a trophy is massive for going forward as a team. I was lucky enough to win it in 2008 with Tottenham. I just thought they could have made the teams a little stronger to compete on both fronts. A clear own goal' - what you saidCoach Johnny D: Why is the FA incapable of working out simple solutions? Why not play the first round of the League Cup on the Saturday before the regular Football League season starts, shifting every round forward, getting three rounds done by the end of August!Steven Richards: Liverpool's attitude to the League Cup is mixed.
RETRO CORNER On this day in 1994, which we’re thoroughly alarmed to report is 25 years ago, Matt le Tissier scored this absolute woof of a goal against Blackburn, which was obviously the 94/95 goal of the season. COMING UP The Chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaampions. It’s a belting night of action in Europe, and a word to the wise: if you’re in a household where you have to be careful about using up your credits to watch football, make sure you use yours this evening, because that’s when all the good stuff is: Wednesday’s games are largely dreck.
In mid-May we should be able to be back on with all European competitions. All of them. Of course, it depends on how the pandemic evolves," Tebas told Marca on Wednesday. It could even be before then, but this is the date that we are working on as a latest in order to start up again. Regarding whether matches will be played behind closed doors, he added: "All depends on the health authorities in each individual country.

As we can see from the fact that they've conceded nine goals on the road, Donny, who've got the fourth-best away defensive record in the division, don't give an abundance away, but they're blighted by a lack of power at the other end. A total of ten in seven seems modest but given that seven of those ten came in a single game against a dreadful Southend side, it's easy to see that Doncaster have attacking problems when playing away from home. They've scored in just three out of seven.
At club level, Bale's ascent was rapid but not without setbacks. Tottenham fought off competition from Manchester United to sign him in 2007 but, after early promise, he struggled with injuries and a statistical quirk that showed he had failed to win a Premier League game over the course of two years and 24 fixtures. Harry Redknapp, Spurs' manager at the time, admitted he was reluctant to select Bale for fear the young left-back was cursed.

Champions League final set to be moved to June 27 – reports "There is no doubt that the health of everybody is the primary concern but the concerns of players are shifting very quickly towards their livelihoods," FIFPRO general secretary Jonas Baer-Hoffmann told reporters in a conference call.
City's frontline continues to sparkle, though the Citizens still look far from convincing in defence. Similarly, while United and Marcus Rashford in particular have been making great strides in the final third in recent weeks, the problems at the back that saw them concede in each of their last ten games don't look like rectifying themselves any time soon.
At home, amateur matches continued and there was a growth in the popularity of the women's game. Abroad, soldiers would often play impromptu games wherever and whenever the opportunity arose. The most famous of these was the legendary match on Christmas Day 1914, which saw some Allied and German troops on the western front lay down their arms and emerge from the trenches to temporarily fraternise and kick a ball around.
In all honesty, this isn't the most appealing fixture from a betting point of view, though those looking to get involved can try 'Liverpool to Score Over 2.5 Goals'. Monterrey tend to concede goals; they've kept just one clean sheet in their last five. Moreover, they fact that they struggled to contain Al Sadd just a few days ago, conceding twice on route to a narrow win, doesn't bode well ahead of a match against a side with such creativity and firepower, and let's face it, Liverpool have notched three against better teams this season.
Scotland out of World Cup amid chaosKerr bemoans 'appalling' refereeingCuthbert on Paris, Piccadilly Circus & ArgentinaBut in the last 10 minutes on the pitch that night in Paris, I felt every emotion I've ever felt. Happiness when Lee Alexander saved the penalty in stoppage-time to keep it 3-2. The world was a brilliant place in that moment. But then anxiety when the referee ordered a retake. My legs were actually shaking because I couldn't believe what was going on.
Spadafora posted on his Facebook account that players, fans and referees should not be put at risk at a time when authorities were asking citizens to make “huge sacrifices” to battle the outbreak.

It's been a while since Almeria graced Spain's top division with their presence, five seasons to be exact, though they may just be on their way back to the promised land.

Pre-season prediction: 17thWhat I said in August: "Sheffield United are plenty of people's tips to go down but I am going with the Chris Wilder factor and the stirring surroundings of Bramall Lane to keep the Blades in the Premier League. Southampton - 11th Southampton fans are understandably sick of being reminded about that 9-0 home defeat by Leicester City in October but it simply must be used a reference point for a superb recovery by manager Ralph Hasenhuttl and his players.
On the home side, Girona is playing extremely impressive with 5 consecutive unbeaten matches with 2 wins and 3 draws. Currently, after 31 matches, they get 47 points and only lower than the top 3 with only 3 points. Certainly with the current good performance along with his playing goals; they won't be hard to win in this match. Especially when they only have to receive a team that is not performing well, Racing.
They will need their speed in what will be a matchup of the league's fastest teams. Only Bayern average more sprints per game than Schalke's 243. The addition of Michael Gregoritsch, who came in the winter break on loan from Augsburg and scored once and set up the other goal against Gladbach, will be key to Schalke maintaining their fast-paced game and also provide more power in the air.

You can't defend this. Fans were walking out after 85 minutes. People at the top need to see this and make changes and put a plan in place. Young kids in schools around the country won't be wearing Man United shirts, they won't be wanting to come here and see this," he said. Nothing there suggests this is laying the foundation of future.
There has certainly been some entertainment in the home sides games this season as Ludogorets have both scored and conceded nine times in their five games. They’ll certainly need to shore up their defence in they have hopes of progressing deep into the tournament.
If he is backed in the summer we will be fine next season. Hodgson himself says he has seen enough to indicate that a first win of the year is not far away. The solution is to play like we did for large periods today," he said. I don't fear the performances as such. The way we've played in the past couple of games has been sufficient to give me hope and belief that we'll play well enough to get back on a winning track.
If they do the same on Thursday, they could use Jamie Vardy and Kelechi Iheanacho in the same way Marcus Rashford and Daniel James were so effective for United - to exploit the spaces left behind the Liverpool full-backs, and isolate their centre-backs. An all-English battle one of many individual duelsWhile Leicester are quite fluid tactically, we usually know what we are going to get from Liverpool.
Kelechi Iheanacho had a goal rightly ruled out for offside as he raced on to Maddison's through ball before rounding Camp to score. Blues' best spell came in injury time when Lukas Jutkiewicz fired over the bar and Harlee Dean had a shot saved. But their cup run is over as the Foxes deservedly move into the last eight. It was just a matter of time' - what the managers saidLeicester City manager Brendan Rodgers told BBC Sport: "It was always was going to be [a tough game].
Without any real quality on paper, Juarez are certainly one of the weaker sides in Liga MX and they're unlikely to improve a great amount in the closing phase. Having won just 1 of their 9 away league matches this term, whilst losing 6 times in the process, their prospects cannot be considered high heading into Sunday's game.
Racism a 'cancer in the game'Adams also described the current issues around racism in football as "absolutely shocking". Incidents of racism have marred a number of Premier League games this season, while England's Euro 2020 qualifying victory over Bulgaria in October 2019 was halted on multiple occasions due to racist chanting by supporters. It's a cancer in the game that we've had for many years," said Adams.
MANCHESTER, England, Dec 7 (Reuters) - Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer went into a crucial week of fixtures with critics questioning whether he was the right man for the job of restoring the club's fortunes. But those sniping at the Norwegian will surely be a little quieter now after, in the space of four days, he masterminded victories over two of the most respected managers in the game, Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola.
We keep seeing what should be the ceiling for Atalanta – a club with little history of challenging at the top and with a middling budget. However, la Dea made the cup final last season and the Champions League last 16 beckons next month. However, the next step for them should be winning silverware, with this competition a huge opportunity for the club.
Deportivo Alaves lost with 0-6 at Celta de Vigo last weekend but had to play with 10 men after only 30 minutes. They have also been poor away from home with a 2-3-10 record.
