The forward turned down Chelsea that summer "because I still didn't want to be a footballer", while Roxburgh tells a tale of a Turkish FA official at that summer's World Cup finals in Spain asking him how much it would take to tempt the attacker away. As it was, a deal would eventually be struck with Chelsea, but first Nevin and his Scotland team-mates had the under-19 World Cup to play the following summer.

There is ongoing active engagement about the topic of salary deductions during the period matches are not being played to schedule. These discussions are complex and as a result the process is ongoing. Health secretary Matt Hancock said Premier League players should "take a pay cut and play their part" during the pandemic, while Newcastle United's on-loan England defender Danny Rose says Premier League players feel their "backs are against the wall" over the calls.
This weekend, safety measures will hit even harder. A new decree by the Italian government, applying to six regions, means all Serie A games taking place in those territories will be played behind closed doors. Third-tier football has been suspended, as have rugby, volleyball and basketball leagues.

Yes, many matches in Europe have been played without spectators. But so many fans gather around the stadium that it makes no sense to close off the game. Bazanov said that he would see several matches himself. If you followed the last championship, then you know that I constantly attend matches. And over the first round of games I plan to be at three matches," he said.
Until they lost the ball cheaply in midfield and the entire defence panicked and ran over to cover Vinícius, leaving Isco all on his own. The best-laid Plans of hares and man. Luckily for Guardiola, not picking Raheem Sterling meant he was waiting on the bench. Shortly after he came on City had an equaliser, and then the lead, thanks to a striker’s header from Jesus — resurrected up front — and a daft foul in the box.
To hear the MOTD team's final selections - recorded during a debate held in Lineker's kitchen - make sure you listen to the podcast on BBC Sounds. And at the bottom of the page have a go at ranking the 10 players yourself. Listen to the second episode of Match of the Day: Top 10How to judge the Premier League's greatest goalscorer?After leaving for Spain, the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Suarez have gone on to produce even more eye-catching exploits so the debate was restricted to what the players have done in the Premier League.
=10.5ptBenfica have scored at least two goals in seven of their last eight matches but have not backed it up with good defence and have conceded two or more in three of the last four. Braga, on the other hand, have scored two or more goals in seven of their last nine but they have no clean sheet in the last seven away matches, and only one in the last 12 away games. We feel this one will yield a lot of goals and we will be backing an over 2.5 goals return here.
For Newcastle, the dream of reaching an FA Cup semi-final at Wembley for the first time since 2000 was beyond them, but they can now concentrate on trying to fulfil Bruce's aim of breaking into the Premier League's top 10. City keep their cool after tough weekCity may have lost their Premier League crown this week as Liverpool ended their 30-year wait for a top-flight title, but there is still plenty for Guardiola's team to achieve this season.
Livingston has only won one of their last five Premiership games at the Tony Macaroni Arena, whilst Kilmarnock shares the same numbers on their trips. Moreover, the visitors have scored in five of their previous six away days, although only scoring a single goal in four of those games. We believe a draw is on the cards here, as neither team has what it takes to beat the other. We're also going for a final score of 1-1, as Livingston has seen under 2.5 goals in their last six home games, with Kilmarnock also netting an average of 0.86 goals on their travels.
Restart of the season now in the second division in Spain. These two teams separate by points a lot, but getting points as much as they can get is the agenda for both. Albacete is in danger of relegation and is only fourth to last in the table, but is tied with teams on the safe zone. Almeria is in 3rd place, the gap to a direct promotion place is 5 points, they lead a non-playoff place is quite comfortable with 8 points. Both teams urgently need points, I expect a 1-1 draw. Albacete have played well at home this season so I expect from them to being able to score and Almeria will also be able to score a goal as they have strength.

In fairness, Dwight McNeil's cross had to be cleared. Sadly for Dier, it went straight to Rodriguez, allowing the Burnley striker to get enough power into his first-time shot to make it awkward for Lloris, who gifted Wood his goal. Dier's evening did improve, particularly after Mourinho's double change at half-time, which involved moving him into central midfield. Had it not been for Dier's superbly-timed tackle on Burnley substitute Vydra, Tottenham may well not have come away with anything from the game.

United followed City in announcing on Monday that they would not be using the government furlough scheme, and will pay all 900 of their non-playing staff in full, which is quite a commitment, and just because Liverpool deserved criticism for not doing this, that doesn’t mean we should avoid praising both Manchester clubs for doing the right thing.
But they also led in both last season's two fixtures with Albion and did not win, twice leading at The Hawthorns in March only to lose 3-2. And again, the Baggies had a sting in the tail thanks to Austin's late double which secured an eighth away win of the season for Slaven Bilic's side.

It just feels right.

It's never happened before so it's been a very big thing. People are happy because it's a rare story. It's very good because people do not know much about Reunion football, so it's a great opportunity for the players over there to show their talent, and this is what we did.
Away side did lost their five previous games in the season, and they are now the worst performing teams in the league.

Luckless Lukas Jutkiewicz has now scored three goals in successive home games - and eight this season - but still finished on the losing sideBirmingham City head coach Pep Clotet told BBC WM 95. If you only think about the result, we're disappointed, because we came back three times against Leeds. But at the same time, after playing West Brom and Leeds at home in the last 15 days, we did see a lot of things we are looking for and we need to be encouraged.
They have scored just eleven goals in 14 league games and have conceded eight goals in their last five league matches. Nîmes have played two less games at home than most teams due to postponements but they have been considerably more impressive at the Costiérés in the few games they have hosted there. The Crocodiles have lost just one of their last five games in all competitions at home, winning three and scoring eight times.
Midfielders - Steven Bergwijn (Tottenham), Jordan Henderson (Liverpool), Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United), Robert Snodgrass (West Ham) Steven Bergwijn: What a start for the lad.

The chest control by Steven Bergwijn and the volley that followed was the stuff of boyhood dreams.

Spurs reached the Champions League final under Mauricio Pochettino last season but Mourinho, who replaced the Argentine manager last week, is not looking that far ahead.
