Alexander-Arnold was the main cause of the hosts' downfall. In fact it was that bad, Leicester were practically chased out of their own town. Did you know? Alexander-Arnold has created more chances than any other defender in the Premier League this season (57). Maguire: This was a return to something like the form we've come to expect from Harry Maguire. The Manchester United defender, who was captain for the fixture against Newcastle, looked comfortable once his side took control of the game.

Ronaldo is yet to score a free-kick in Juventus colours. According to Opta of the 40 free-kick attempts he has had in Turin 25 have hit the wall, eleven were saved by the goalkeeper, one hit the bar and three went off target. Ronaldo and free-kicks: 54 goals in 18 years Yet, until recently, Ronaldo had a reputation – a well-deserved one – of being a relentless sniper when it came to placing his free-kicks.
Only 17% of Rio Ave’s away games have seen both teams score and Portimonense have only kept clean sheets in 17% of their home games, while Rio Ave have kept clean sheets in 33% of their away games. A majority of the visitor’s wins this season have been obtained with a one-goal margin (3 wins), and that is another reason why we have backed a narrow 1-0 victory for Rio Ave on Friday night.
We wonder why, when we get to a tournament, England can't perform to the level," the 59-year-old said. For the international footballer of today, it's a huge problem, it's absolutely ridiculous. They don't get a break any more. They are machines and they break down. Someone like Harry Kane, an injury like he has had comes from playing too often, playing Saturday, Tuesday for evermore. As fit as he is, to pull a tendon like he has, it's fixture congestion.
The FIGC has called an emergency meeting for Tuesday. Following the conclusion of the first game, which SPAL won 1-0, the AIC reiterated in a statement its belief that football must be stopped as soon as possible. The signals that the sporting institutions are sending out are terrible. It's dangerous to travel to and from the red zones, it's dangerous to play football, it's dangerous to shake hands.
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 also criticised the lunchtime kickoff for Saturday's derby, especially considering his side played on Sunday afternoon and then again on Wednesday in the Champions League.

I cannot ask more from them, especially Lucas (Moura), (Giovani) Lo Celso, (Steven) Bergwijn these boys that are playing every minute and trying to do miracles in positions that are not their positions. I cannot complain. José Mourinho (Tottenham Hotspur)Getty Images Tottenham's lack of striking options are threatening to wreck their top-four ambitions, although Mourinho's team selection was still puzzling with forward Dele Alli left on the bench and Erik Lamela playing only for 20 minutes.
England internationals Lucy Bronze, Nikita Parris and Alex Greenwood have won the French women's title with Lyon. The French Football Federation (FFF) confirmed the decision on Friday, with no games possible because of the coronavirus pandemic. It gives the Champions League holders and six-time European champions a 14th consecutive domestic crown. Lyon were three points clear of Paris St-Germain with six matches left, but no games have been played since March.
Chelsea midfielder Mateo Kovacic is, perhaps more surprisingly, the player who has completed the most dribbles of five metres or more per 90 minutes so far this season. The Croatia international has received plaudits for his improved performance under manager Frank Lampard this term compared with the 2018-19 campaign under Maurizio Sarri, with his high number of dribbles a suggestion he is having a greater impact on games.
They never wanted me to play football so I had to go school and do something else, but I am successful so I have proved them wrong," he added. Perceived as a 'god'Since becoming a professional, Mane has provided money to hospitals in his native Senegal, but he does not wish to take any credit for his charity.

We know the players we've got around us and we know if we get them the ball, if we can put balls into the areas, then things will happen. Late goals are essentially a mindset we've got into. Media playback is not supported on this device MOTDx: Trent Alexander-Arnold's admiration for Messi & Instagram rivalry with Robertson Trent on. EnglandLooking ahead to the Euros in the summer, how far do you think England can go?Win it, why not? You've seen at the World Cup we got far, you can see that the squad is so exciting at the moment.
Pasalic, who clipped the crossbar before halftime, diverted Robin Gonsens' cross-shot into the net in the 61st minute, then Ilicic scored twice in an nine-minute spell to turn it into a humiliation for Milan as their defence fell apart. There was more to come as Luis Muriel ran onto a through ball, outran a Milan defender, evaded Donnarumma as the goalkeeper rushed out of his area and added the fifth.
A lot can happen in a week in football, never mind a decade - but which Premier League players have left a lasting impression during the 2010s?The final years of Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United. Leicester City's 5000-1 title winners. The recent titanic battle for supremacy between Manchester City and Liverpool. We want you to reflect on the past 10 years in English football's top flight and decide which players make your team of the decade.
UEFA's decision was widely expected, not least because of pressure from Europe's powerful domestic leagues wrestling with the nightmare scenario of incomplete competitions. The move will help all domestic competitions, currently on hold due to the COVID-19 emergency, to be completed," UEFA said. FLAGSHIP TOURNAMENT Playoff matches were due to be held on March 26 and 31 to decide the full lineup of nations for Europe's once every four-year flagship tournament -- second only to FIFA's World Cup in terms of prestige in soccer.
Barcelona continue to lead the championship race, passing like a siphon from the headquarters of Mallorca, prevailing 4-0, in its first game after the restart. They Were not good defensively and by pure luck they did not see their home violated.
I do know that when you have a great pathway and great preparation for the Olympics then it creates six or seven top Socceroo players and for the senior national team that's very important," he said. Arnold also called on his country's football authorities to do more to improve opportunities for young players.
There is a lot at stake in this final regular season game. Chinandega could yet make it into the play-offs and Deportivo Ocotal might end up being relegated. The home side are in poor form with a string of losses but aren't that bad at home Ocotal ended a long run without a win with a vital win over Juventus Managua in their last game. A bet on both teams to score in what should be an open game is the one to make.
The hosts are hoping that their lead over the chasing pack will be enough, so long as they get back to winning ways. They shouldn’t worry too much about the threat from Preston, who head here with a huge gap between their home and away form. Only Preston have a better home record than Leeds, but the visitors are 18th in the away results table.
Tottenham have turned things around since the arrival of Jose Mourinho. They could be in the Champions League places for Christmas, though that is partly due to the appalling league form of their opponents. Spurs have been good at home of late with eight goals scored in the last two league games (plus another four in the Champions League). It's all going wrong for Chelsea at present and Frank Lampard might be glad that their transfer ban is over. Chelsea have lost four of their last five league games and this looks like being another defeat. Go for Tottenham to win this match.

The Saints went into the encounter at the King Power Stadium having endured a humiliating 9-0 loss in the reverse fixture in October. But they took their revenge when striker Danny Ings sealed all three points with a late winner. The comeback win meant Southampton have won four of their last five league games to sit eight points above the relegation zone, a huge turnaround from a few months ago when Hasenhuettl was facing questions about his future at the club.
You don't do big celebrations after scoring. I'm not really a goal celebration type of person. Obviously sometimes for a game I make a deal either with my brother or one of the team-mates like, 'oh we're going to do this today'. But I'm probably just running to the player that passed me the ball; I think it just shows respect to the other team. We've got girls on the team that do something really weird or stupid or funny and I do appreciate that as well.
The Red Devils dominated English football for years but have not won the Premier League since 2013 and BBC Radio 5 Live pundit Chris Sutton believes they are a shadow of the side they used to be. The difference between the two sides is that Liverpool are living in the present," said the former Blackburn and Chelsea player. They are living in this moment. They are a team who are improving all the time and the club is improving all the time - on and off the field.
But this reckoned without the input of Zaha and Benteke. Zaha's goal was a superb strike, fiercely fired into the net via the crossbar from an unlikely distance. Benteke's was more routine, tapped in from point-blank range following a neat move, but almost as surprising, it being his first goal at Selhurst Park since April 2018. And Palace came within a whisker of snatching a point when Scott Dann's back-post header struck the inside of the post before Chelsea hacked the ball clear.
Inter Milan have signed Chelsea winger Victor Moses on loan for the remainder of the season with an option for a permanent deal.

Moses, 29, joined Fenerbahce on loan in January 2019, having not played for Chelsea since October 2018.
As the German Bundesliga resumes after the forced break, among the teams in action will be Werder Bremen at home to Bayer Leverkusen this Monday. Going to the match, Werder Bremen are placed 17th on the standings with 18 points and Leverkusen are fifth with 47 points. It has been a bad season so far for Werder Bremen; the threat of getting relegated is staring at them and there is little to argue that they may beat the drop.
I can't explain things properly all the time, they have to understand it without me telling them. Thank God we have that. I don't expect perfection on the pitch, but I expect the desire. I don't make decisions out of the blue. There are always reasons. Against Everton, Klopp, whose side lead second-placed Leicester City by eight points, made five changes to the side that beat Brighton & Hove Albion 2-1 last Saturday.
Astra did defeat CFR Cluj with 3-2 at home this season but CFR had two players sent-off and scored their 2nd goal in just 9 men. At home CFR has 9 wins in a row in the league conceding just once and scoring plenty of goals, they won 7 of those last 9 home wins by at least 2 goals difference many times even by 3 or more goals difference as well.
Scored in the Premier League at the age of 40 and is 11th on the goalscoring list and ranks 10th for assists. Not bad. Robin van Persie (Arsenal 2004-12) Came as a one-footed spindly winger; left as one of the best strikers in Europe and then gave Sir Alex Ferguson a final title as a retirement present. He was £2. His 144 Premier League goals put him two behind Teddy Sheringham on the all-time list.
The Argentine playmaker is arguably the world’s best free-kick taker and the Basque side decided to make his life as hard as possible when he had a dead ball opportunity about 25 metres from goal. Imanol Alguacil’s side made a short wall of three men, placed a player on either post and packed the box with the rest of their side.
Townsend said that figure was "absolutely disgraceful considering the amount of players there are in the game that have also transitioned into coaching and are qualified".

There are various reasons for that, including the inability of some players to deal with the subconscious realisation that they could never top the high of Barcelona. How do you go again after something like that? Where do you go from the summit of Everest? Dwight Yorke knew where he wanted to go. He was only half joking when he asked Ferguson if he could take a year off to “get over” what he and United had achieved.

WHAT A BLOCK BY LINDELOF! De Bruyne suddenly bursts through into United's area and shoots, but a flying block by Lindelof diverts the ball over the bar. That's excellent defending. CHANCE! Mahrez wins a corner for City. He whips it in, David Silva of all people flicks it on and Otamendi flies in to head the ball just wide.
I'd like to thank the board for the backing they have given me already in my time at the club and also most importantly, the Rangers fans who have given me and the team such tremendous backing both this season and last.
