It's been a low scoring round in the second league level in the Czech Republic but this game promises to have a couple of goals scored in it with Brno missing several key first team defenders and they looked awful in their last friendly game which I watched as they ended up losing with 5-0 at their own stadium against Zlin but more important in the second half Zlin used youth players and scored 3 goals against a very modest Brno defense and could have scored more as Zlin even missed a penalty kick and very easy they were alone with the keeper multiple times.
The Texans are the fourth ranked side in the AFC with their opponents in fifth position. Houston won AFC South in the regular season with a 10-6 record, placing them just ahead of the Tennessee Titans who ended on 9-7. The Texans were 8-4 in matches played against other sides in the AFC. They come into this game having won two of the last three, the only loss was to the Titans when the title had already been secured.
Anthony Martial's shot crept in at the near post six minutes later to calm the Old Trafford jitters and youngster Mason Greenwood thumped home a second before Marcus Rashford's header put the hosts in control. Newcastle hardly helped themselves with some dreadful defending and they gifted Martial a second goal in the 51st minute to make the result a formality.
Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers, who was replaced by Klopp at Anfield, has built a team that has won as many games as Pep Guardiola's City, 12 out of 18. They have lost just three times and in Jamie Vardy they have the league's top scorer with 17 goals. We will try (to stop Vardy). He's a massive striker, an exceptional striker.
Thank you, Sepp Blatter. Thank you, Michel Platini. Thank you, Qatar 2022. Good job you couldn’t get those artificial clouds working. But thinking about it, if the knock-on from the coronavirus affects not just the timing of this season (2019-20) but the next, 2020-21, and then the men’s World Cup lands in the middle of 2022-23, we might be looking at just one “normal” football season in the next four years.
Lewis Hamilton (R) of Britain talks with McLaren team-mate Fernando Alonso in 2007 (Reuters)Reuters Hamilton and Alonso lasted just one season as team-mates in 2007, before Alonso cut his contract short and departed following a bust-up with McLaren’s management over the ‘Spygate’ affair. The duo won four races each as team-mates and finished the season tied on 109 points – Hamilton ahead on count-back of second-place finishes.
Lecce start the weekend only three points above the relegation zone and have lost their last two league games. They haven't just lost them but conceded 11 goals in those two matches. Firstly, they lost 4-0 at Roma and then had a disastrous 7-2 home loss to Atalanta. That's taken them up to 56 league goals conceded this season, ten more than any other side in Serie A.
Teenager Jude Bellingham has been the target of racist abuse on social media after an emotional final game for Birmingham City. The 17-year-old is moving to German giants Borussia Dortmund, in a deal which could eventually be worth more than £30m to the Championship club. Police are investigating a Twitter post, which Bellingham described as "disgusting". Times have to change. More has to be done," he added.
Odion Ighalo was a top worldwide trend on social media on transfer deadline day - because his move to Manchester United seemed such an unlikely one. He was trending again on Thursday - and this time it was for all the right reasons. United's managing director Richard Arnold boasted on Tuesday that Ighalo's signing made him the top global trend on Twitter on the same day as Brexit and President Trump's impeachment trial in the United States, with rival fans quick to point out that the reason he was doing so was not actually a positive for United.

It helped that the two were good friends on the pitch but, like every good friendship, there were times when it was tested. Their one significant flashpoint happened in a Champions League semi-final first leg against Real Madrid back in 2012. At half time, a heated exchange developed between the two over a decision on who should take a free-kick just before the break. The row continued in the dressing room where Ribery threw a punch at Robben, catching him under the eye.
Manuel brought the footballer into goalkeeping and revolutionised this position," said Rummenigge -- although Colombia's Rene Higuita claimed to have invented the sweeper-keeper role in the 1990s and Mexico's Jorge Campos sometimes played as a striker for UNAM. Manchester City boss Guardiola won the Bundesliga in each of his three seasons at Bayern although Champions League success eluded him.

The club did not respond to Reuters' request for comment on FIFPRO's statement. FIFPRO said Napoli's decision to forbid players from returning home was unjustified. Like every other employee, professional football players have the right to ensure that their private life is respected, especially considering the already congested fixture list which sees many players away from home for prolonged periods," the statement said.
Whatever was said behind closed doors seemed to do the trick as Napoli have won six of their subsequent seven games in all competitions, including cup wins over Inter Milan and Lazio as well as a league win over Serie A leaders Juventus. You win over the squad by working hard every day, with rules, respect and coherence," Gattuso told reporters.
It is exactly 15 years since the greatest comeback in Champions League - or European Cup - final history. On 25 May, 2005 at the Ataturk Stadium in Turkey, Liverpool were 3-0 down at half-time to a star-studded AC Milan side, but recovered to force extra time and, eventually, win on penalties. Reds fans call it the 'Miracle of Istanbul' and this is how it is remembered by the players, pundits and supporters who were there.
Liverpool host Spanish side Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday.

One of the biggest sources of controversy has involved offside decisions where VAR officials use gridlines superimposed on the screen, leading to goals being disallowed because a player's toe or armpit was offside. The line is very thin and it's drawn by the VAR so it's the subjective line of an objective fact which is a bit strange," said Ceferin.
Capiata have suffered 4 defeats in their last 5 matches. There have been over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 5 matches as well. But they have failed to score in their last 2 matches. They are in very bad shape right now. They are coming off a defeat against Olimpia Asuncion by 1:0 goals.
Second-half goals from Ayoze Perez and Jamie Vardy earned Leicester City a convincing 2-0 Premier League win over Brighton & Hove Albion at the Amex Stadium on Saturday. After failing to score with any of their first 11 attempts on goal, Leicester returned from the halftime break to punish Brighton twice and stay second in the table.
Verona have scored in each of their last five league games, they haven't found the net in more consecutive Serie A games since March 2015 (eight). They will want to prey on an open Atalanta outfit who have seen over 2.5 goals in 12 of their last 15 league games. Meanwhile, Verona have scored in three of their trips to top four sides this season, so we see them adding to Atalanta’s woes. Both teams to score is our pick ahead of this clash.
Premier League players launch initiative to help the NHSPremier League squads 'drop 1. All 24 sides in the Championship still had nine matches to play when the league was suspended on 13 March. Some clubs in League One and League Two have 10 games left. If the campaign had carried on as normal, the remaining fixtures would have been completed in 73 days up until the Championship play-off final on 25 May.
VAR backed up Oliver, and Vardy grabbed his first goal in nine games, and 18th off the season, with the conversion. Leicester continued to push for a third, and Vardy added his second after making his own chance from the left wing, and Barnes made it four five minutes from time. The win leaves them four points behind a stuttering Manchester City.
We expect the visitors to continue that streak here. Brescia have lost their last five outings, conceding 14 goals in total. The hosts have lost seven of their last eight to fall to the bottom of Serie A, while Atalanta are unbeaten on the road with the third-best away record in the division. Seeing as over 1.5 goals has landed in 92% of Atalanta’s league games alongside that great form, we see an away win and over 1.5 goals as a great pick for this weekend.
That is absolutely critical. We cannot play a game of football if it jeopardises the health of someone in the general public. I am a firm believer in that and football has to come secondary to that. Premier League clubs in moral vacuum Media playback is not supported on this device #GoalsAtHome: Can you recreate this Alli volley at home 'I try not to coach my boys too much'While Howe says football is on his mind “every day”, he is currently juggling his day job, including organising his players' training regime from a distance, with the other challenge of home-schooling his children.
The deputy chairman Douglas Park will chair the board during the interim period and a new permanent chairman will be elected by the board at the next board meeting and will be announced immediately thereafter. I considered the possibility of extending my time as chairman until the coronavirus crisis is over but that is not practically possible. After I returned to South Africa last week from the board meeting, I was mandated by the South African authorities to go into self-isolation for 14 days - which I am presently undergoing.
United suffered a shock home defeat in that encounter and Ferguson’s side eventually finished the season in second place, as Manchester City won the Premier League on goal difference. Iwobi‘s dancing routine caught on social mediaEverybody likes a dance on occasions but it’s perhaps best to swerve going to parties a couple of days before a game as Alex Iwobi can testify to. Now at Everton, the 23-year-old was caught out in January 2018 while an Arsenal player, when a video was released on social media showing him partying at a house in central London at 02:37 GMT.

IN OTHER NEWS Wash your hands Otherwise Jose Mourinho will publicly call you out: IN THE CHANNELS We really wanted to include Cesc Fabregas playing Eddie Murphy but it’s a bit rude – so head here for that. Instead, here's John Motson storming into No. HAT-TIP "But what would truly be the best and fairest way for things to be decided this season if the remaining games can never be played? Here is one completely objective, scientific and clear-headed policy as proposed to us (not really, obviously) by each Premier League club…" Football365 spoke to every Premier League club, or at least pretended, to gather their thoughts on how the season should end.
Rangers and Hearts are challenging this. They don't see why rules can't be changed to get the money released to those most in need without having to call the league first. They want it released now. They want the articles changed so the wolf can be kept from the door of the most vulnerable clubs. Free up the money and buy every club time to think calmly about the next step. Park the vote. That's their mantra.
I think for Jonathan that was the remit. But the League One signings didn't quite work, the performances had been up and down. Drury added: "The squad is just not as strong as it was this time last year. What they wanted to do was find younger, cheaper promising players from League One, bring them on and possibly sell them on, but it hasn't worked. While there have been positives - with Drury pointing to home-grown left-back Hayden Coulson as one who has acclimatised well to first-team life - results have been Woodgate's downfall.
