However, the result came at a cost with defender John Souttar suffering a season-ending Achilles injury after just 16 minutes after falling to the ground off the ball, with Scott Arfield and Ryan Jack forced off early for the visitors. Reaction and how it happenedHearts end Rangers' cup dreamsWhether it was the arrival of storm Jorge or the fact that there were many empty seats in the home end inside Tynecastle, the atmosphere was very flat in the opening period.
When Frank Lampard meets his old mentor Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, the stage will be overloaded with sub-plots. Chelsea manager Lampard is suddenly struggling to maintain a place in the top four after one win in six Premier League games, and they were beaten 2-0 at home by Manchester United on Monday. Spurs, who closed to within four points of Chelsea after their 3-2 win at Aston Villa, have seen their optimism punctured - first by Son Heung-min joining Harry Kane as a long-term injury absentee, then when RB Leipzig left their Champions League hopes in jeopardy with victory in the last-16 first leg at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The nerves did not show, though, as he made a fantastic double stop to deny Mateo Kovacic and Oliver Giroud. He was roundly cheered by the West Ham fans, who had booed Roberto during the 3-2 defeat by Tottenham last Saturday. And his Hammers team-mates ran to congratulate him afterwards for a Premier League debut to remember. Christian Pulisic missed two great chances for ChelseaChelsea pay for profligacyAlthough West Ham held firm, Chelsea paid for failing to take their chances with Pulisic perhaps the most guilty after lifting an effort over early on and slicing a chance wide after being put through by substitute N'Golo Kante.

Again, like Donny at home, Shrewsbury aren't prolific winners on the road. That's mainly down to their lack of attacking power. After all, just four goals scored in eight games doesn't exactly suggest they're strong going forward. Where they are strong is at the back, though. The Shrews have conceded just three goals in their last eight travelling matches in League 1. Only the league leaders have conceded fewer travelling goals in the third division this term.
The Serie A League, which organises the competition, said in a statement that the semi-final, second leg match at the San Paolo stadium had been called off on the orders of the Naples city government. It is the 12th game to be postponed since the crisis began and the third involving Inter Milan. Italy has been the worst affected country in Europe by the outbreak, with 79 deaths and more than 2,500 cases.
Fifa should recognise us and treat us in a proper manner. Fifa report reveals record £5. Fifa want to implement their plans possibly as early as next season but Barnett, who represents high-profile players including Gareth Bale and England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, added: "The truth is Fifa doesn't know exactly what an agent does. No-one from Fifa has ever been to my office or had a conversation with me.
Read the full story Iniesta feels secure in Japan Spanish newspaper Marca has spoken to former Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta about his experience in Japan so far, particularly regarding coronavirus. The pandemic forced the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics, but the country has proved so far to be one of the least affected by the outbreak.

Palace fans have a reputation for being among the loudest in the Premier League, so how much has playing behind closed doors affected the Eagles' form? "We've definitely missed our fans at home and we take it away as well," says Stacks. It might sound a bit hippyish of me but I feel as if there is a positive energy and a bond between the players, fans and the community. The players talk about it a lot and there has been something missing without our supporters when, on the flip side, some of the teams with less harmonious relationships have benefited because the pressure is off when grounds are empty.
The hosts have seen under 2.5 goals land in 75% of their home clashes so far. Meanwhile, the same has landed in over half of Wednesday’s league games. These two sides have seen fewer than three goals in five of their last six meetings at this ground, so we are backing the same again here. Under 2.5 goals is our pick in this clash.
More likely is that we pay Boca Juniors to cut short Alexis Mac Allister's season-long loan now that he has been given a work permit, but pitching a 21-year-old who has never played in Europe into a relegation battle would be a big risk. Before the end of 2019, Alireza Jahanbakhsh would have been first out the door but two goals in two games have earned him a reprieve. Leon Balogun, Gaetan Bong and Ezequiel Schelotto have all become surplus to requirements under Potter.
We’re confident that both teams will score on Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-2. Both teams are playing well at this moment in time and the hosts have surprised many with their turnaround in form. Both teams play a style of football that leaves spaces in behind for the opposition and that should make for a very entertaining and competitive ninety minutes this Sunday.
In light of media reports linking Michel Platini to a role within our organisation, FIFPRO would like to put on record that no such position has been discussed let alone agreed by the FIFPRO board," said the union in a statement on Friday. Platini was banned from football for eight years in 2015 along with former FIFA president Sepp Blatter.
There was always a fantastic atmosphere at Upton Park for the big games. But that night was very eerie. You could hear the radio commentary drifting across the pitch, and what the coaches were saying to themselves in the dugouts. In fact that was the only game in my whole career that I could hear everything that was said from the bench. One voice stood out above the others - Eddie Baily, a World War Two veteran as well as a former England international.
Luton themselves made five changes from their surprise weekend win at Swansea, with Glen Rea getting injured in the warm-up and Danny Hylton getting his first start since March 2019. Their breakaway goal came from a Ryan Tunnicliffe through ball which found sub Cornick, who was being shepherded by Ben White but managed to open his body and bend into the top corner past Illan Meslier. Sluga made a great double save to stop a Kalvin Phillips free-kick and Alioski follow-up but could not keep out Dallas' composed effort, which came three minutes after the introduction of Leeds talisman Pablo Hernandez.
Viitorul Constanta, the team of Gheorghe Hagi where the ex star of Romanian football invested a lot and produces a lot of football players, will meet on their venue Astra Giurgiu, a team with very good players, that has 6 wins in a row in Liga 1.
These two sides have both seen plenty of goals scored across recent meetings between the pair. There have been 18 goals scored in the last four league meetings between QPR and Hull City, with the reverse fixture this season finishing 3-2 to QPR. That’s just followed the recent trend, with over 2.5 goals landing in six of their last seven clashes.
He was suffering a lot of injuries, so he couldn't consistently work on his physical strength. He wanted to come back as fast as possible. When fit, though, Gnabry proved a valuable asset for Nouri's side, netting 11 times in 27 games during his one season at the club. He is just lightning quick and is tailor-made for big transition moments, he has a clinical finish with both feet," added the former Bundesliga midfielder.
We have to go to Craven Cottage and we have to be positive and that first goal is going to be key in that game. No team has ever come back from a two-goal first-leg deficit to win a Championship play-off tie, but Harris insisted his team are not finished yet. He pointed to the fact that, in June, Northampton lost 2-0 to Cheltenham in the home leg of their League Two play-off semi-final, recovered to win the away leg 3-0 and went on to gain promotion.
The paper sugests that the league is provisionally expecting the competition to pick up again some time after June 1, which would give them enough time to complete the rest of their fixtures within six weeks. That would fulfill contractual obligations from the clubs to receive their broadcast rights revenues, and potentially avoid the problem of players leaving out of contract before the end of the campaign.
Marcus Rashford had tested Bernd Leno in the first minute, but once they went behind to Pepe's opener, they struggled to match Arsenal's superior energy in midfield. Jesse Lingard, who returned to the starting line-up, was hardly involved while Nemanja Matic could not get to grips with Mesut Ozil, Torreira or Xhaka, who were often one step ahead. It was another game where Solskjaer's team missed the influence of Pogba, who has not started a game in three months, and the mystery over his omission continued as the United boss said he had picked up an ankle injury which could keep him out for a few weeks.
But he was the man who made the key contribution in the end, netting the winner completely out of nowhere at the death. MAN OF THE MATCH – Adama Traore (Wolves) It is only fair that Traore gets his share of credit too. Not only did he score a superb equaliser, worthy of winning any game, but he was a constant thorn in Spurs’ side.
Bayern II dropped to 3rd place but it could have been worse for them in their last league game as they found themselves 2-0 down in the second half away from home at Magdeburg but thanks to the individual quality of the players they have in their squad they earned a 2-2 draw in the end. I saw that one of their top scoring players, youngster and striker Arp is injured for a couple of games, but his replacements up-front are firing in goals as Bayern II has 4-2-0 record in their last 6 games played and with a win here will go on top of the league.
Tainan City will host Taichung Futuro for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites in this game. Tainan City is very average team in this league. However, Tainan City have advantage at home stadium. In any case, the hosts will try to make a positive result on the home field. Also, it should be said, Tainan City have better results in the last mutual matches - 3 wins in a row. On the other hand Taichung also is very average team in this season. True, they are undefeated in this campaign. However, they have a very difficult task on the road. My pick - Tainan City to win.
The visitors have fallen to 23rd in the table after failing to win a game since mid-October. When you compare that record to Blackburn – six victories since the start of November – it’s hard to make much of a case for the visitors. They are on the longest winless run of any Championship side, which could be extended here.
The 34-year-old is in his best scoring run since his £99. Real Madrid in 2018, scoring in each of his last five Serie A games. Juventus overtake Inter Milan to go top in Serie A, but Inter can go back to the summit if they beat Napoli at 19:45 GMT. It was Ronaldo's second hat-trick for Juve, having scored three against Atletico Madrid in last season's Champions League last-16 tie. He has scored three hat-tricks for Portugal since then.
Sheffield Wednesday have had a good run so far in the cup with wins at Premier League team Brighton and Championship team QPR. But at the moment they are looking very poor with a 1-3-4 record in the last 8 games and losing 5 of the last 8 games at home.
It's ridiculous really. Meanwhile, Bruce still carries on getting results and proving what a good manager he is, especially in getting the best out of his players. West Ham are finally up and running again too, and they will be full of confidence after their win over Chelsea - despite a big VAR decision going against them again. Form-wise, Newcastle would still have to be favourites - but it doesn't always work out that way in the Premier League.
Liverpool were crowned champions of England for the first time in 30 years after Manchester City lost to Chelsea. Only a win for City at Stamford Bridge would have allowed them to hold on to the Premier League trophy for a little longer and their two-season reign is now officially over. Pep Guardiola's side lost a total of six league games in those two seasons combined, but their eighth defeat of this campaign leaves them 23 points behind the leaders, with seven games left.

Also under consideration. Paul Ince had two good years at Inter Milan in the mid-1990s without winning a medal, while current Middlesbrough manager Jonathan Woodgate was a big-money signing for Real Madrid in 2004 but struggled through injury. Could Aaron Ramsey join the list of British players to win the Champions League overseas? Playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo can only help, with the Welshman's Juventus side up against Lyon in the last 16.
On the other hand, Pogon Szczecin's play is quite good. The home team has 41 points and the 6th position in the rankings. Currently, they are only 1 point lower than the Top 3 and very confident in this match. They won 1 win, 3 draws and 2 latest losses. With their current performance, they had to set their sights high on this battle. Home advantage is what they need to promote.
It was important that we were on top of our game to get some points because we are the underdogs in this league. There are more than 20 points, let us see how far we can go.

A lot of clubs have now been apart for many days, so it's going to be difficult to get match fit. I imagine there would have to be a short pre-season and then we'd probably quickly get on to the remaining games to try to complete the season, but only if possible as there is a lot of talk that some leagues might be able to finish and others won't. Media playback is not supported on this device Messi, Melo & the Pogbas: The best #StayAtHome challenges West Ham United vice-chairman Baroness Karren Brady wrote in her newspaper column on Saturday that the Premier League season could run into July in order to finish.

The win means Australia join Saudi Arabia and South Korea in representing the region at the Olympic Games after the pair secured their tickets for the finals on Wednesday. Japan, who were eliminated from the Asian U23 Championship in the group phase, will also feature at the tournament in July and August as hosts.
It was boldly announced on these pages (albeit after successive losses to Inter Milan and Barca) that Pochettino's claim "no longer stood up to close scrutiny" and "it is stretching reality and credibility to suggest they are among the best in Europe. Turns out they were not so bad after all - especially as they reached the Champions League final. Going too early on Unai's Arsenal revolution Unai Emery was appointed Arsenal manager in May 2018Arsenal's 4-2 win over Spurs on 2 December 2018 was a thrilling confirmation of everything the Gunners and their fans were getting from Unai Emery in the post-Arsene Wenger era.
With that in mind, we're also going for a 1-2 correct score in favour of the visitors. They should find this fixture fairly comfortable over the course of the 90 minutes considering the gulf in quality between the sides, but this may not reflect in the full-time score. Barca have scored more than two goals in just one of their nine away matches in all competitions this season, so 1-2 stands out as the most likely outcome for Saturday lunchtime's action at Butarque.
Injured Paris St-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe will miss the Champions League quarter-final with Atalanta in Lisbon on 12 August. Mbappe, 21, sustained an ankle injury during the French Cup final against Saint-Etienne on Friday, ruling him out for three weeks. He could return for the semi-final on 18 August, if PSG qualify. Scans confirmed "an ankle sprain with damage to the external ligament", the club said.
Happy for the team because it's tough being here," he told Sky Sports. I think they score because of our mistake. At the end, we suffered a little bit but I think we have enough chances to score more goals, but we are happy for the team. It's the second title for us so we are very happy. Phil Foden was delighted to have made a rare appearance from the start: "The day before, in training, the manager was working on tactics - I couldn’t wait to play.
I thought: has nothing really changed in 34 years?" Zolotov lives in Vitebsk, which ranks second, after Minsk, in the number of coronavirus cases. Lukashenko, who has ruled the country with an iron fist since 1994, has called fears about coronavirus a "psychosis", prescribed drinking vodka and going to saunas to battle the disease, and said he was more worried about the economy.
