He then showed remarkable composure and vision inside the area with an audacious reverse pass to release the midfielder again to pave the way for another Balotelli finish. United simply could not cope with Silva's brilliance and he was on the scoresheet himself to make it 5-1, racing clear to nutmeg United keeper David de Gea. Silva then arguably saved his best for last, cushioning a long-range volleyed pass from well inside his own half with his left foot between Rio Ferdinand and Chris Smalling, leaving Edin Dzeko to streak away and round off the rout.

Standing is currently allowed in League One and League Two and several top-flight clubs are exploring the possibility. The Football Association, Premier League and EFL have all said they would support clubs choosing to implement safe standing if local authorities allow it. Tottenham's new stadium has "safe seating" which has been "future-proofed" for the potential introduction of standing, while Wolves installed rail seating at their Molineux ground in the summer.
The France forward left the pitch in tears and later returned to the dugout on crutches. He will be a serious doubt for PSG's Champions League quarter-final with Atalanta in August. Neymar's goal proved enough to seal a 13th French Cup for PSG as the second half played out with few incidents of note, with both sides showing tiredness on their return to competitive action. Mbappe injury takes shine off win Mbappe left the pitch in tears after suffering the injuryPSG were awarded the league title after the season was ended early and this win means they have completed a league and cup double.
Former Italy midfielder Conte steered Chelsea to the 2017 Premier League title but was sacked with 12 months left on his contract. The Blues missed out on qualifying for the Champions League in his final season but did win the FA Cup in 2018 before his departure. Conte was replaced by Maurizio Sarri, who also left the club in the summer of 2019, one year into a three-year contract. The club also invested £280.
But not only did the famously combative Conte - who had only been in charge for five months at the time - get away with his public criticism, he was also given what he wanted with several reinforcements arriving in the January transfer window. After watching his side win 2-0 at Udinese on Sunday to maintain their Serie A title challenge, Conte said his haranguing of the Inter board had paid off.
Ending the French Ligue 1 season early was a "massive error" and one that showed "an obvious lack of leadership", says Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas. The campaign was stopped on 13 March because of the global coronavirus pandemic and did not resume. Paris St-Germain were crowned champions in April, with Toulouse and Amiens relegated to Ligue 2. Top flights in Germany, Spain, Italy and England resumed in May and June.

Over a million people watch live football at a ground every week, and having spoken to fans across the country, I know that safe standing is an issue many feel passionately about," Sports Minister Nigel Adams said. While top-flight clubs have not been able to allow "standing" areas by using rail seating, lower level sides have done so.
Davies says: "It's not about taking options away - it's about adding more into the mix. Levy serves a number of other big sports clubs and venues, including Aston Villa, Cardiff City, Leicester City, tennis' All England Club, Edgbaston cricket ground and Harlequins Rugby. And Davies has not ruled out introducing vegan-only kiosks at other arenas. We'd be interested in rolling this out around the country," he says.

Wellington Phoenix had a horrible start to the season, losing their opening four games and sitting bottom of the league. A 1-1 draw with Melbourne Victory proved to be the turning point for the side though as they won their next three games, all by a 2-1 scoreline, before picking up another creditable point against Victory.
The system is, as Pep Guardiola surmised "a big mess". Those who believed that the 'progress' of technology would remove the controversy from the game have been shown to be off the mark. Instead it is the decisions made in the room by Heathrow airport that are the controversy. The handball law has had to be changed for the VAR-era and now there are calls for the offside law to be changed as well.
A best new chance for this our mach we play at this mach now is this pick over from this more good chance for this much and can we see a new mach from boat teams in the Belarus league where we play the best pick score draw for this ordinary time from this mach full from 90 minutes and can for this best new chance get a new great 32 points to our score if we see this score draw from this much for this ordinary time this much now and can this be a best new chance for our great win.
Burton's chances of improving on their respectable 9th place finish seem quite slim given their performances during the first half of the campaign. By no means a bad side, The Brewers have struggled to put together a string of wins, which is why they're narrowly outside the top half and are six points shy of the coveted play-off places.
We’re confident that both teams will score in Saturday’s clash and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1. The hosts don’t win many games at home and their guests don’t win many games on the road, couple that with both teams’ poor goals return and you can see just why we have backed a 1-1 draw between the pair this Saturday.
Whichever line-up I choose for Sunday, and I don't know in this moment what we need, but if you want to go through, anybody in a Liverpool shirt, you must throw your soul on the pitch because we need you 100%," he added. I will do what I think is right. Some things I will decide by myself, some things the medical department will tell me. I don't know what the line-up will be but it will the best for us in the moment.

Pope also fares well in this regard, but the real standout performer is again Henderson, who has conceded about 15 goals fewer than he has been expected to. Again, note Pickford's place in the list. The saves Pope made against Liverpool kept Burnley in the game. Alongside Henderson I think England are very fortunate with the keepers we've got," said former England striker Ian Wright on Match of the Day.
But if the transfers go through, Wilder believes his squad will be "as strong as it has been for a long time in this club's history". Wilder also said striker Billy Sharp would not be leaving the club, but was surprised that he had no offers for forward Leon Clarke. We are confident we can get three deals over the line and we are working away on that. It is tough of course, and we wouldn't expect it to be any different.
Unbeaten in 10 league matches, of which they've won 5, Colchester are in strong shape and will make this trip with confidence high. Having scored an average of 1.45 goals a game in the league this term, The U's are one of the most potent outfits in the division and will be hoping to use their firepower to secure maximum points on Saturday.
In the betting, 'Coventry to Win & Over 1.5 Goals' catches the eye. Having scored twice and outplayed their hosts in the reverse fixture, the hosts are backed to thrive at St. Andrew's. Bristol Rovers are making a habit of giving plenty away, conceding two more in three of their last four matches, while they're really struggling when it comes to being outshot and out-attacked in general, as we saw when the pair met at Memorial Stadium less than two weeks ago.
KEY MOMENTS 17’ - CHAAANCE! Great football from Norwich as Cantwell feeds Teemu Pukki, who is free, in the centre of the goal, but he cannot make the right connection and scuffs his effort wide. Has to do better from there. GOOOOOOAAALLLL!!!! Tottenham 1-0 Norwich. There is that first Spurs Premier League goal of 2020 for Spurs, Dele Alli the scorer.
One of these players is on their way to their first ever Grand Slam semi-final. Sofia Kenin is the highest ranked of the two players and has had some memorable victories in the past year. She is in good form and takes on a player who has had most of her success on the lesser ITF Challenger series. Kenin has won three of her four previous matches against her opponent. After beating her on the way to two titles last year, she will be hoping history might repeat itself this week. Go for Kenin to get the win.

For me, this match is pretty real and I can even said ideal for option on at least three goals, and maybe even more than that. HB is team who is in last two official matches against this rival played two super interesting matches and in both of those duels, it was scored four goals. HB was better in last official match against Vikingur as a guests, 3-1, and also, at home, they are beat this rival again, 3-1, but this time on home stadium. I believe that this match will be similar and this time, so I will bet on goals.
Porto had a midweek game while Braga had no midweek activity, and fatigue may be a factor going to this game. Regardless, Porto stand out as favorites here. They have a better run and will be helped on by their run over Braga. While Porto are among the best defensive sides in the league, they have been conceding regularly lately. They have no clean sheet in the last four matches. Placed against Braga’s recent scoring form, we can expect both sides to score, and we will thus go for a 2-1 win for FC Porto.
On the visiting sides, manager Ralph Hasenhüttl will also have to find a replacement for one of his players, Sam McQueen won’t be able to participate in this clash due to injury. On their side the player to watch should be their great attacker and top scorer Danny Ings, he netted 5 goals and provided 1 assist this season.
Spurs and City underway We have lift off across the Champions League and you can follow our dedicated live-blogs for tonight's blockbuster matches. Tottenham vs Olympiakos Man City vs Shakhtar Donetsk Juventus vs Atletico Madrid Real Madrid vs PSG Also kicked off are. Atalanta vs Zagreb Crvena Zvezda vs Bayern Munich .
I think Hellas Verona will win this match. There are three reasons for my pick. The first is connect with the hosts. Hellas Verona have just one defeat in the last 10 matches in Serie A, so the players confidence is high. The second reason is connect with Cagliari. The Sardinians lost the last three league games. The third and the final reason is again connect with Cagliari as they will be without two very important players. The club leading scorer Joao Pedro (16 goals) is sidelined due to suspension, while Radja Nainggolan (5 goals) is out injured. Without the mentioned duo Cagliari will suffer another defeat.
Watford will host Tottenham Hotspur for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the visitors have better team than their opponent. Tottenham are more ambitious team in this league. However, Tottenham is very unpredictable team in this campaign. Also, Tottenham are in poor shape in the last matches. They have two consecutive losses. Also, we have Watford who's is one of the outsiders in this season. They are in danger of getting relegated. True, Watford have better results in the last matches. They have three consecutive victories. Yeah, this will not be an easy task. In any case, Watford will try to make a positive result.
Norwich boss Daniel Farke admits it will be a "miracle" if his side can stay in the Premier League this season. The Canaries are bottom of the table with just 13 points from 20 league games. Farke's side face Crystal Palace on Wednesday following a 2-2 draw at home to Tottenham at the weekend. But despite the odds stacking up against them, the German said his players will "work their socks off" to win matches.
Mumbai City did not enjoy the best start to this season and I remember them with my first bet I placed this season in one of their games as they hosted the league leaders from Goa and I bet a big sum on the over 3.5 goals there, they lost that game 4-2 also coming into that fixture after a 4-2 defeat also at home but to Odisha, still they have 3 wins in a row right now unbeaten for more than 5 games and inside the play-off zone for the title.
'Correct Score' punters can try a 2-0 win for the hosts, who're up against a Montpellier side that has conceded twice in three of their last four on the road. Moreover, Reims, who've kept a clean sheet in three of their last five at home and who generally give little away, have the defensive quality to shut out low-scoring opposition.
These two clubs have only met five times before, between 2016-2019, and De Graafschap have won three of those encounters and over 3.5 goals have been produced in all of those meetings. De Graafschap have only lost one of their last six matches in the league and both teams have scored in each of those games, while Utrecht Jong have only won one of their last six competitive and non-competitive matches, four of which have seen both teams score.

Arsene Wenger says his "heart" is still with Arsenal and he is happy to talk to interim boss Freddie Ljungberg whenever he wants. Ljungberg, who played under Wenger at Arsenal between 1998 and 2007, took temporary charge at Emirates Stadium after Unai Emery's dismissal last week. And the Swede says he would like to speak to his old boss before his first home game against Brighton on Thursday.
The 35-year-old defender, who came on in the 78th minute, had not played since the opening day. Brescia played well until Florian Aye's second yellow card for catching Aaron Ramsey on the edge of the box. Paulo Dybala curled home the resulting free-kick and Juan Cuadrado clipped in a second from Blaise Matuidi's pass. Juventus deserved their victory, with Daniele Rugani's header being tipped on to the bar by Serie A debutant Lorenzo Andrenacci, Rodrigo Bentancur hitting the post and Dybala crashing a shot off the crossbar in injury time.
