I have got no idea how people still, or ever, thought this way," said the Belgium international. Vertonghen says he "loves" and the UK because its multi-cultural society and that reports of racism "hurts". I didn't hear anything, but if these things are still happening it is a disgrace and we should act strongly against it," he added. Sometimes you think people are smarter than this. I am very convinced it is just a minority, but it is very wrong.
Boss Eddie Howe felt his side had done enough to win any one of their previous three games, but the same could not be said about this one as they failed to make the most of the extra man. They lacked urgency and creativity and, as they pushed forward in the closing stages in a desperate bid to end their losing run, left themselves exposed to Palace's effective counter attack. With three of their next four games coming against Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal, this was a fixture Bournemouth really needed to get something from.
Wolves Burnley (a, 15 July), Crystal Palace (h, 20 July), Chelsea (a, 26 July)Wolves only have slim hopes of the top four now. They sit four points behind Leicester and Manchester United - and have to overtake two teams - so need several results to go their way. Chances of top four (from Gracenote): 4%7. Sheffield United Leicester (a, 16 July), Everton (h, 20 July), Southampton (a, 26 July)Sheffield United are five points behind Leicester - their next opponents - and Manchester United so would need to win all three games and hope for the sides above them to all drop lots of points.
In the Premier League, things haven't been going quite so smoothly for Dean Smith's men however, and a run of just one win from eight top-flight fixtures has seen Villa tumble dramatically down the standings.
Jahn Regensburg are simply the better team in this German Second division match and both can play being relaxed. After the 4-1 defeat in Heidenheim, a reaction is expected from Regensburg team. KSC recently won a derby and they are well in the fight against relegation, but will they win again? I do not think so.
On Monday, Newcastle United put non-playing staff on leave and instructed employees to apply for the government's newly-created coronavirus job retention scheme. Professional football in England has been suspended until April 30, at the earliest, due to the pandemic. Norwich City on Tuesday said they were taking similar steps to "safeguard future jobs and help sustain the club" through the crisis.

The flying-winger was in scintillating form for Bayern last night as they tore Chelsea apart in a 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge in the Champions league on Tuesday night. Gnabry is one of the most exciting players in the world right now, which has led to question marks pointed at why Arsenal allowed the 24-year-old to leave the club for Werder Bremen four years ago.
Weddings and Caribbean holidays, Jurgen Klopp certainly isn't alone in missing matches. Immediately after Liverpool's 2-2 FA Cup draw at Shrewsbury Town, the German said he would not be on the touchline for the replay at Anfield nine days later. Why? Because he wants to respect the inaugural winter break that the Premier League has introduced this season. It got us thinking about the other occasions managers have missed games.
The Blues have major issues, especially having gifted a win to the league’s worst travelling side. They are hardly in better shape in the cup, having won just twice across their previous 11 home matches in this competition. Current boss Pep Clotet oversaw a 3-0 loss at Leauge One Portsmouth in the League Cup in August, will he suffer another early exit?
Lampard also gave a first Premier League start to 18-year-old anchor Billy Gilmour in the absence of experienced midfielders N'Golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic, who were both injured, and Jorginho who was suspended. Two more teenagers who joined Chelsea as youngsters - Faustino Anjorin and Armando Broja - came on in the second half to make their league debuts, following on the heels of other young prospects who have broken into the team this season.
However, this only played in Atleti’s hands as they enjoyed the best chances of the first half, striking the woodwork through Angel Correa. The introduction of Vinicius Junior and Lucas Vazquez at the break changed the dynamic, though, as Real Madrid found width and drive in the final third. The breakthrough came just before the hour mark as Benzema slammed home a finish from a Ferland Mendy cross.
The academy has been a major part of that, it's something we have worked extremely hard at," said Tagg. The temptation when we have had some good paydays and windfalls is to plough it straight back in immediately and we haven't done that. We've tried to be circumspect with the amounts that we put back in and the amounts that we hold back. No-one envisioned this. Again it will hurt us long term because how will you replace it? It is just reserves that are used up.
Posted at 62' Foul by Gylfi Sigurdsson (Everton). Posted at 61' Attempt saved. Richarlison (Everton) header from the centre of the box is saved in the top centre of the goal.

City are still involved in all three cup competitions, with upcoming midweek ties in the FA Cup and Champions League coming up soon. Pep Guardiola's side also face Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup final on March 1, meaning they will have another postponed Premier League match. If City reach the finals of the FA Cup and Champions League they will have to play 24 matches in 14 weeks.
Coach Mikel Arteta said it is a "big shame" Arsenal will be without captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for three games after his ban was upheld. The Gabon striker, 30, was booked for a tackle on Max Meyer in the 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace but the video assistant referee overturned the decision. Arsenal appealed against Aubameyang's red card but his suspension will stand. It's a big shame and a big loss for us, but he mistimed the tackle and we have to accept it," said Arteta.
We’re confident that AZ will win on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0. The visitors head into the game as the clear form favourites and are flying right now following an impressive 1-0 win over Ajax. Sparta have struggled for wins in recent weeks and while their home form has been decent, we still expect AZ to be too strong for them over the ninety minutes.
Six Barcelona board members have resigned and told president Josep Maria Bartomeu they are unhappy at how the club is being managed. In a joint letter, the six expressed concern over the financial implications of the coronavirus crisis for the club. They also criticised the handling of a scandal in February when the club were forced to deny hiring a firm to attack its own players on social media. And they called for Barca to call new presidential elections.
It said at the time it hoped the policy would "help address the under-representation" and would be "mandatory when clubs consider multiple applicants for a role". Townsend added: "If we are going to implement these types of changes then we have to be thorough in the process of what we are doing. Then we also have to release the data around it. There are six BAME managers across the 91 clubs in the Premier League and EFL.

Neymar stayed at PSG following a summer which saw him heavily linked with both Real Madrid and a return to Barcelona. The Brazil international has missed much of the campaign due to injury, but is set to feature against Real in the Champions League on Tuesday night. And with Neymar having reportedly offered to pay some money to force through a move in the summer, Tuchel admitted the forward is “difficult” to work with.
Ahead of this match, City are on 60 points, a massive 21 ahead of 10th placed Burnley. City trails Liverpool by 22 points and have no realistic chance of successfully defending the title. They head to this game with six wins in their last seven matches across all competitions and with four straight wins against Burnley, they will be firm favorites.
West Ham, who were fifth in the standings in September, have dropped down to 15th after losing six of their last eight games with British media reporting that Pellegrini's job could be in danger if they are unable to arrest their poor form. For me the pressure isn't linked to the result," Pellegrini told a news conference ahead of Monday's clash against Arsenal.

Orebro Syrianska will against Fanna BK in match Sweden Club Friendlies. My prediction this match could be the won for Orebro Syrianska with margin score is 2 goals. Orebro Syrianska have good result on last 5 match due to Orebro Syrianska have won in 3 match, 1 match is lose and 1 match is draw. Meanwhile, Fanna BK have not good result on last match due to Fanna BK has just beaten from Sollentuna with score 3-2. Therefore, my prediction that Orebro Syrianska can beat Fanna BK due to Orebro Syrianska more strong rather than Fanna BK. Moreover Orebro Syrianka has been play in Sweden division 2 rather than Fanna BK in play division 3. Surely Orebro Syrianska have more chance to win on this match.
Neman Grodno were in the bottom three earlier in the season. Their form has picked up and are now tenth with a game in hand. Last weekend saw them win their first away league fixture and they will be looking to build on that success. Slavia Mozyr had to come from two goals down to win at bottom-of-the-table Belshina last weekend. Home form is patchy with just one victory this season. Go for Neman Grodno on a double chance bet to win or draw this match.

Today will be playing match between teams benfica nad maritimo. My prediction for this match is home team to win by 3 or more goals difference. Odd is dropping and that is one of the reasons why I chose to play this tip. Benfica is much better placed at the board than maritimo. Benfica is at 1st position with great goal difference 25:4 ( only 4 conceded goals in 11 played games). Maritimo is at 14th position with 12:17 goal difference. Benfica will have home ground advantage and they have much better team, they won last time against maritimo 60 and I expect here again similar result. Good luck.
Today we are back in action with a game Italy Serie A in football where the club of Sassuolo plays against the club of Lazio Rome for mutual fight in the field. Last of the host 2 wins and 2 losses and 1 draw and the guest 4 wins and 1 defeat from the last 5 matches. I think it will be a game in which the score will have more advantages - Sassuolo is not as strong as expected this season and there is a chance to win away to Lazio with maybe Asian HC -0.75 in 90 minutes under the current conditions.
It joins Avai, which was relegated earlier this month. Another two clubs will join them before the season ends on Dec 8.

But the point for Slaven Bilic's side, now unbeaten in 14 games, ensured that they would remain top of the Championship on Boxing Day, no matter how Leeds United fare in their late kick-off at home to Preston. Struggling Barnsley showed what they are capable of when they led 2-0 at the Hawthorns earlier in the season, only to be hit by two late Albion goals.
The European giants at risk from expiring contracts if season goes into summer HOW WILL IT IMPACT OTHER INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENTS? UEFA’s decision to shunt Euro 2020 back a year could spark a mini domino effect. The women’s European Championships – scheduled to run from July 7 to August 1 in 2021 – is now expected to take place in 2022 to avoid an overlap with the men’s tournament.
The change comes in the wake of the FIELD study, which found former professional footballers are 3. Although there was no evidence in the study to suggest heading the ball was the direct cause, the English FA, along with the Irish and Scottish FA’s, have taken measures to mitigate against any potential risks.
This game we have given it an under of 3.5 total goals as looking at the last meeting that this two team have meet together the home team and the away team have not being able to score goals over 3.5 in many games and so this makes us to be very sure with this prediction that this trend will continue on this game today
Only opponents West Ham (22) and Aston Villa (19) have dropped more points from leading positions in this season's Premier League than Chelsea (18). This was West Ham's sixth Premier League win over Chelsea after conceding the first goal; only against Southampton (seven) have the Hammers come from behind after conceding first to win more times in the competition, while only Arsenal (seven) have beaten Chelsea more after conceding first to them in the division.
Given the defensive records of the pair, goals are likely in this one. The Blues have conceded nearly two goals per away game as they prepare to take on the division’s worst defence. Meanwhile, Luton have seen over 2.5 goals in 85% of their league games, with it landing in 14 of their last 15 outings. Birmingham are on a streak of their own, seeing over 2.5 in five of their last six. As a result, we’re going for over 2.5 goals.
To be there after the first half of the season with 13 points out of 20 games, let's be honest it will be a miracle to stay in the league for next season. But one thing is for sure, don't underestimate the attitude and the spirit of my lads. Norwich have recorded their worst start to a top-flight campaign, with three wins in total and no wins in their previous seven games. Each and every game we have to prepare to win some points," Farke added.
But both Buckley and O’Brien insist there was no firm offer on the table and the fee Celtic were talking about was more like £50,000. We weren’t impressed by the approach from Celtic,” said O’Brien. We’d heard they were notoriously mean when it came to transfer fees. We’d have been delighted to get a firm offer for Celtic to allow us to carry on. And so came the final day - which was only four days before they were due to play their season opener in the all-Ireland Setanta Sports Cup.
Alajuelense have been the strongest home team so far in the Clausura with a 6-2-0 record and also the most productive home team with 22 goals. In 2 of the last 3 home games they have also kept a clean sheet.
