Jamie Vardy - Leicester CityGetty Images A draw that will satisfy neither side entirely, yet offers something for both to work with. Poised, as they say. At least one of the second legs will be worth watching. Before the game, Sky made much of the “clash” between James Maddison and Jack Grealish, two very exciting young playmakers that Manchester United will soon try, and fail, to sign.

So Schalke, in their 4-0 defeat by Borussia Dortmund, were able to make two substitutions at half-time - and another three after the break. Applauding empty stands Borussia Dortmund players ran over to celebrate in front of the empty South BankAfter the final whistle - to deafening silence - Borussia Dortmund's players went across to their famous South Bank - usually known as the Yellow Wall which holds 25,000 fans - to applaud and run towards the empty stand to celebrate.
The 34-year-old, Manchester United and England's most prolific striker, signed an initial 18-month deal at the second-tier side where he will also work as a coach as he chases his dream of being a manager. Rooney, who last played for U. S. Major League Soccer side DC United, floated a free-kick into the box at the stroke of halftime which allowed striker Jack Marriott to give Derby the lead with only his second goal this season.
The 28-year-old Dane made his Barca debut as a substitute in a 5-0 win over Eibar last weekend. The champions will be without the injured Luis Suarez, Ousmane Dembele and Sergi Roberto but left-back Jordi Alba has recovered from a thigh problem. Eden Hazard may not play again this season for Real, but captain Sergio Ramos is able to play. His red card against City means he will miss their next Champions League match.
Actually, scratch the ‘appeared’: that’s exactly what he did do. If you’re not familiar with the specifics of this one, here’s an explanation: ‘Alli posted a video of himself wearing a surgical mask in an airport lounge before turning the camera and zooming in on a man of Asian appearance and zooming in on a bottle of antiseptic hand wash.
Tomorrow we need to win. If we are able to win three or four games on the trot, then we are right there. That’s the challenge we have and all the teams have at the moment. When you look at the results from the weekend, all the draws, and how one decision changed the whole game between Burnley and Leicester, the margin is not that big.
Hal Robson-Kanu's brilliant turn and finish levelled up Radja Nainggolan's opener before substitute Sam Vokes headed the winner. Wales' victory over Belgium took them into the semi-finals of a major tournament for the first timeShearer: "For Hal Robson-Kanu to score that goal in the way that he did, and send about three Belgium players for pie and chips as he turned, was unbelievable. England humbled by IcelandEuro 2016 in FranceWhen it comes to embarrassing exits from major tournaments, England's defeat by Iceland must rank pretty highly.
He was guaranteed a spot in the 18-player squad mind - were that guarantee taken away, would he have signed for City? Perhaps not. Perhaps he would take his talents to a side not top of the table, or to a side where he was guaranteed a start. Bernardo Silva devant Pep Guardiola lors du match de Ligue des champions entre Manchester City et le Shakhtar Donetsk, le 26 novembre 2019.
Punters are advised to support 'Middlesbrough +1 Handicap'. Woodgate's men have flourished of late, especially at home. Their defensive efforts bode well ahead of a match against a misfiring Spurs team. Moreover, the visitors haven't exactly made a habit of beating lower-level teams in recent times. They were knocked out of the EFL Cup this season by Colchester, while in this competition, they drew away against both Newport and Rochdale back in 2018.
From my view, and this is not to talk ourselves down, because we're six points clear in fourth, now we become probably the underdogs and the outsiders to some point. Manchester United are six points behind the Blues in the Premier League in fifth place and secured the signature of Bruno Fernandes for an initial £47m from Sporting Lisbon. Lampard said: "If I'm looking at it with my business head on and looking around us in the table, Manchester United obviously have signed a big, world-class player in my opinion.
It's not easy to manage him at all!" Tuchel told France Info. He has a big, big heart, but, unfortunately, he does not always show that he is a generous, reliable boy. Sometimes it is provocative and it's very bad because it's not necessary. Klopp ready for Napoli fight Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp said Champions League visitors Napoli will be tough to beat on Wednesday night.
He looks set to steer Leicester into the Champions League next decade having been an integral part of their Premier League title-winning season. You get to a point where you’re questioning your own XI and asking why on earth you’ve left the likes of Eden Hazard, Gareth Bale and Sergio Aguero out, but along with Kante for Chelsea, one-season wonder Harry Kane deserved the nod, as did Vincent Kompany for leading City during their greatest era to date.
It is the 26th round of the Tipico Bundesliga, the Austrian football championship where Rapid Vienna who sit 2nd place with 26 points hosts Wolfsberger who sit 3rd and collected a total number of 23 points. Rapid has won the last two matches after the Salzburg defeat and is in second place in this group of champions with 26 points. Wolfsberger managed 4 points from the 3 restart matches and follows Rapid as third with 3 points less. The two rounds ended in a draw (1-1, 2-2), it is quite possible that it will be close again. In any case, I expect a draw.
With international travel suspended in most countries to contain the spread of the flu-like virus, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) and Cricket Australia decided it was impossible for the tour to go ahead. The two tests in Chattogram and Dhaka between June 11-23 were part of the International Cricket Council's newly launched World Test Championship.

Steve Bruce - mystery manNo-one has achieved the cult fame of a trilogy of novels allegedly penned by Newcastle United boss Steve Bruce. We say "allegedly" because during an interview with BBC Radio 5 Live in 2016, Bruce's son Alex said his father did not write the books, only to later take to Twitter to state that he did, after all. View more on twitterThe three books - Striker!, Sweeper! and Defender! - tell the story of Leddersford Town boss Steve Barnes who somehow juggles managing a top football club with solving crimes surrounding murders, kidnappings and missing players.
The Premier League met on Monday to discuss "Project Restart" and hopes for a return to action on 12 June, with matches played behind closed doors. We all agreed that we will only go ahead if it is safe to do so and the health and welfare of players, coaches and staff comes first," said Dowden. It is now up to the football authorities to agree and finalise the detail of their plans, and there is combined goodwill to achieve this for their fans, the football community and the nation as a whole.
Goals on every Werder match is more than good option and I think the same and for this match, so I will try it - we will see what will happen. So, Freiburg is pretty solid so far and this team is mostly winning points at home, what is pretty natural for them. Werder, on the other side is have huge problems and they will soon surely fight for survival in league. Team is lost in last round 1-4 at home against Leverkusen and probably they will lose this match too. I also believe in plenty of goals in this match.
Prior to Wednesday evening, Barcelona had posted a perfect seven wins from seven at Camp Nou, scoring a mammoth 30 goals in the process. Unsurprisingly, they are heavy odds-on to regain the winning thread on Matchday 18, against an Alaves side who have lost six from eight on the road this season.
So the question is will Neville see this break in football - and the probable wait for tournament football - as an opportunity to step away?The former Everton and Manchester United defender may feel he has unfinished business in the men's game, where he is yet to take on a senior managerial role following an unsuccessful spell as assistant boss at Valencia in 2016. But there is also the possibility that Neville will see this extra time before tournaments as an opportunity to "go back to the basics" and rebuild a new process with England - something he hinted at while in the US this month.
David Moyes’ chances of being re-appointed at the club have been improved after Carlo Ancelotti took over at Everton. Paper Round’s view: Moyes has shown an aptitude for reinvigorating the West Ham squad after a period of poor performance, but they are a club stuck for an identity. If they go for Moyes then they admit that they are better suited to British pragmatism while turning down the chance to embrace being a premier European side in the capital of England.
They are showing mild or no symptoms. Football is not immune from this virus and I can assure you that it only really hits home when those that you know contract it. Portsmouth's players and staff were tested following their FA Cup tie with Arsenal after several of the Gunners squad had been in contact with Olympiakos owner Evangelos Marinakis on the night of their Europa League meeting. Marinakis, who also owns Nottingham Forest, confirmed he had the virus on 10 March.
A draw is all Liverpool need to book their place in the draw for the next round. Salzburg have scored more goals than each of the other three teams in Group E. Salzburg are averaging 3.2 goals for per game in Group E. Liverpool average 2.2. Salzburg host Liverpool in the Champions League. When this group was drawn, not too many people would’ve expected Salzburg to be tussling with Liverpool and Napoli come match-day six, though the Austrian outfit have defied expectations and have shown the wider audience that they’re a side capable of doing the business at this level.
I know change was needed. Wenger was at the club just too long, but now it looks like the club has to go in a different direction. This is relegation form. Decisions have got to be made, because otherwise Arsenal are going to plunge further down the table. It’s very sad. The fans are voting with their feet, there was hardly anyone there.
Looking back, Ellis describes the moment she came out to her college team - on the field, with her daughter in her arms - as liberating, and something she hopes others can take strength from. Plenty of other LGBTQ+ people in football are using their platform to show the game is somewhere everyone belongs. In 2017, Ryan Atkin became England's first out gay male referee at a professional level. It was a whirlwind," he says.
In his time at United he has been frustratingly careless in possession, giving the ball away as he attempts some indefinable action that requires six, seven, maybe more touches. He does not put his foot in tough situations, and for such an imposing figure he rarely makes the most of his strength. That is the bad side of Pogba, but the good is intermittently so devastating it continues to buy him time and chances.
We just can't see that happening and see good value in backing Marseille on a -1 handicap when looking at the fixture from a betting point of view. Marseille are scoring goals for fun, especially at home and with Nimes having looked extremely leaky in recent weeks, we believe a comfortable 3-0 home win could well be on the cards.
Nevertheless, the hosts put on a classy display in what was manager Hayes' 200th game in charge.

Still, as tidy as Copenhagen looked when trying to counter attack, they hadn't threatened. Fraser Forster hadn't a save to make in the opening half. The missed chances would have frustrated them but the lack of menace from the visitors would have enthused Celtic all the same. A false sense of security as it turned out. Early in the new half, everything changed. It turned out the that greatest threat to Celtic was Celtic themselves - or Jozo Simunovic to be exact.
This time I am under contract," said Moyes. The former Manchester United boss returned in December to replace Manuel Pellegrini, himself appointed after Moyes left in 2018. I can see shoots of improvement," Moyes said. The owners can see shoots of improvement too. I think they understand the way we would like to go and the ideas we have got. Last week, Moyes recalled a statement made by former Archbishop of York John Sentamu during the depths of lockdown, when he said "promise less, deliver more".
Video - Klopp: You can't break records just because you want to01:10 And maybe this humbling defeat will act as a wake-up call to knuckle down in the business end of the season having had some narrow wins in 2020. They have had the winning habit in the league for more than a year so its is bound to be a shock to the system when they taste defeat.

After a bright start to the current campaign, however, West Ham's form nosedived and immediately after defeat at the end of December by Leicester City at the London Stadium which left them in the bottom three, Pellegrini was fired. Former Everton and Manchester United boss Moyes was summoned again and answered the call -- having an immediate impact as West Ham thrashed Bournemouth 4-0.
Their behaviour is in contrast to that of the two Manchester clubs, neither of whom have sought to use the furlough scheme - with United confirming they would continue to pay all matchday staff during the crisis while the players have donated 30 percent of their wages to the NHS and City confirmed that they would not be furloughing any staff.
Shrewsbury vs Coventry predictions for Saturday's match in League One. Despite sitting 6th in the table, visiting Coventry are still searching for their first away win of the season and make the trip to mid-table Shrewsbury on Saturday. Read on for all our free predictions and betting tips.
Nantes have the better form going to this game and they have also been dominant in matches against Angers, save for the last three fixtures that they have not managed a win. Angers have a poor away record, and we can’t say the same against Nantes when playing at home. Nantes are clearly the stronger of these two sides and we will be putting our money on them winning.
Obviously, Jurgen Klopp's side have only dropped two points all season for starters. But Spurs have won just one of their past 14 Premier League meetings with Liverpool - 4-1 win at Wembley in October 2017 when Reds defender Dejan Lovren had a tricky afternoon - and have lost nine of the other 13. There should be goals at the Lane - only bottom of the table Norwich have kept as few Premier League clean sheets this season as Tottenham (two), while Liverpool have scored in 29 consecutive matches.
You cannot make any sort of argument as to why it is okay. If you think that you can go to a game of football and shout racist abuse at someone then f*** off, you are not welcome in football. We hope La Liga hand out a punishment that even begins to fit the crime but frankly given the way football has dealt with racism so far we’re not confident.
Since the band kicked off, I am much more of an occasional five-a-side player - we had a kickaround in the park this week actually - but I'm still a massive fan of grass-roots football and a huge supporter of the men's and women's game. Women's football has made such amazing leaps and bounds in the past few years and I am really disappointed to see it is not coming back after the season was halted early by the coronavirus pandemic.
Aluko said in November 2017 that Parris' celebration was not respectful considering the complaints against Sampson at the time. I think it was naive and perhaps wasn't the best thing to do for the players," she said. Some of them may have a special relationship with Mark Sampson and they have every right [to celebrate with him], but I think about the sensitivity at that time, and it wasn't respectful.
