Martial also seems to have responded to Fernandes' arrival. The Frenchman's latest goal means he has found the net in three consecutive games for the first time since September 2017. The manner of it was superb - first nudging Christian Kabasele aside, then brilliantly finding space with a neat bit of skill after Foster's initial save had returned the ball to him before keeping his composure to chip into an empty net.
Saudi Arabia U23 have managed to score in 4 of the last 5 games with two of those matches ending with at least 3 goals in them. With them having scored 6 goals in the last 5 games and conceded 3 goals in those games

Tables have turned between these two sides no longer is Middlesbrough favorite in such encounters and they really should be priced much higher for the win here as despite having 2 wins in a row at home right now away from home in 9 league games they got just 4 draws and lost 5 times the latest loss being at another promotion candidate Leeds losing the game with 4-0 in the end and they were also not much better away at QPR where with a lot of luck as away from home their game is indeed based on luck they drew 2-2.
But the club says Prince Abdullah is still the ultimate owner and they expect the public record to be updated by Companies House in coming days. It is understood that the filings update is not related to the prospective Saudi-led takeover of Newcastle United, or the continuing dispute with McCabe. The club said: "Sheffield United has received a number of questions in relation to filings with Companies House that were made today [Thursday] by the club and its direct parent company, Blades Leisure Limited.
The selection confirms that Liverpool are concentrating their senior player resources on the Club World Cup as they deal with a schedule clash. Klopp's side will play at Villa on 17 December at 19:45 GMT and will compete in the Club World Cup semi-final in Qatar the following day at 17:30 GMT. The Premier League leaders are fielding different teams in two separate competitions within 24 hours because they said alternative dates were not considered "suitable without compromising the scheduling of the competition itself or placing an undue strain on our playing staff".

Several clubs, such as Halifax, offered fans of other clubs a discounted ticket of 10 pounds ($12. Manchester City season-ticket holder David Miller took full advantage of the offer, attending two games in one day. I was at Bradford Park Avenue earlier for the 3pm kick-off in the National League North and then came to this one," he said.
Paper Round’s view: Ancelotti would be unsuited to the job going by his past track record where he settles down unhappy but talented squads. For Pochettino, it seems likely he could attract an offer from a far bigger club in Europe. The longer the problem persists the more likely it is that Ferguson will be offered the job until the end of the season, at least.

In becoming a firefighter, she is following in the footsteps of another left-back in Rachel Unitt, who won 102 senior caps for England between 2000 and 2013. There are a few ex-professional female footballers in the fire service so we could get a decent little football team going," Williams said. I'm not saying I'll never put on a pair of boots on again, but I found I wasn't getting the same satisfaction from football, as I was getting older.

When you have two sides who have both seen improvements in their last two outings and both have strengths in different areas, it can often be hard to pick which area to bet on. However, in this fixture we have a side who are solid enough on the road, are in good goalscoring form and, given their defensive vulnerabilities, know that they will likely need to score at least twice to get the points. This, combined with the fact that the visitors frequently concede and have the joint worst home record in the division, leads us to believe that backing there to be over 1.5 Salford goals is the way to go.
Sporting Lisbon flies in to discuss Fernandes deal The Daily Mail reports on what could be the biggest transfer deal of the Premier League January window so far. According to the report, Sporting Lisbon president Frederico Varandas was in Mayfair to negotiate a deal for midfielder Bruno Fernandes. United know that Sporting are hard to deal with and there are rumours that Marcos Rojo could be part of any deal for the 25-year-old Portuguese international.
We can all agree this is wrong, but again for Spirit of Shankly the prerogative is protecting jobs. It is the club who make the decision on how to pay their staff and they are the ones who need to answer why, if they decide to furlough. Our belief is that no million-pound plus profit-making organisation should be relying on taxpayer subsidies in times of crises, yet football as a money-making industry has been singled out.
We did not start the game well. We gave up opportunities in the early part of the game and they were better than us in the opening period," said Moyes, whose team fell behind to Conor Townsend's ninth-minute opener. We were a bit fortunate we did not concede another goal but we got through to halftime and I made a decision to make a few changes.
The warning signs had been there from the outset. Raul Silva was picked out by a Sequeira free-kick only to head straight at Allan McGregor, with Braga having two bites at the rebound but failing to convert. Mercurial forward Francisco Trincao - who has agreed a £26m move to Barcelona this summer - then flashed a shot inches wide before Fransergio made his side's dominance count. The Brazilian midfielder strode forward, shrugged off Scott Arfield's attempted challenge and thudded a swerving 25-yard drive in off the crossbar.

Now is a good time to apply it to more offences. Would someone risk scything down a promising attack if they knew their team would face 10 minutes with 10 men? Would a defender take ages over a late throw-in if they could be penalised? Would a winger theatrically throw themselves to the floor, fixing a pleading gaze in the direction of the referee, if they knew they could be punished for diving? Even if there are just two minutes left in injury time, it would still make a player think twice before time-wasting or making a professional foul.
Brechin and Annan will face each other in the upcoming match in the League Two in Scotland. Brechin this season have the following results: 4W, 3D and 16L. Meanwhile Annan have 8W, 3D and 13L.

Unlike Liverpool, who as Champions League winners go straight into the semi-finals, Monterrey have already played in Qatar. They beat Qatari side Al Sadd by three goals to two, a victory which set up this clash with the champions of Europe and if the last few months are anything to go by, soon to be champions of England.
These teams played in scoreless draw last time when we expected a lot of goals to be scored. This could happen again with the away team scoring a lot and having a lot of goals scored against them in most recent matches. Because these matches have been high scoring does not mean we will see all these goals in this match. These sides seem to match up well against each other and last time they played the chances for scoring was not there for either of these sides, this could be exactly the same when they meet this week too

The FA described it as "a significant moment" and - with the Euros coming up this summer - one that "will greatly benefit club and country".

He would only be back-up to Trent Alexander-Arnold of course but could now return to the squad at least. Harry Kane has been out of action since 1 January because of a hamstring injuryJose gets his main man backPerhaps the biggest gain from a delayed Premier League season, Tottenham striker Harry Kane says he is likely to be back to full fitness once football resumes. The England captain is ahead of schedule in his recovery from surgery on a hamstring injury he suffered on 1 January.
He didn't make a particularly brilliant job of that in his last weeks in Manchester and, as happened so often then, tonight he spent long periods in his technical area with his hands in his pockets watching his team get outplayed. His substitutes failed to inspire and with eight goals conceded in four games, Mourinho evidently has some work to do defensively. At the end, he moved to shake Solskjaer's hand before striding purposefully away to try and lift his players.
Jack Grealish scored a beautiful goal as Aston Villa won 2-1 at Burnley to drag themselves out of the relegation places on New Year's Day. Villa thought they had taken an 11th minute lead through a diving header from Jack Grealish but a VAR review found that Wesley's heel was marginally offside during the move and the goal was over-turned.

After their loss in the Soweto Derby, Orlando Pirates will be seeking a return to winning ways when they play away to Golden Arrows on Saturday.
The SPFL must be run as a "democracy not a dictatorship", says Rangers managing director Stewart Robertson after his club produced a dossier criticising the league's governance. Rangers claim that clubs were not told of a potential £10m liability to sponsors and broadcasters, as well as "substantial problems" with league reconstruction before they voted to end the season. SPFL board member Robertson said clubs need to "have the right level of say" when it comes to any decisions made.
Torino are ten places ahead of Genoa in Serie A. Genoa have an appalling away record with only two wins in 34 league games. Genoa have only won one of their last ten away Italian Cup ties. Torino are currently ninth in Serie A and host Genoa in the last sixteen of the Italian Cup. Their opponents are one from bottom in the table and a point from safety.
Aston Villa welcomes Newcastle at home at Villa Park in a classic meeting. It could well be said that these clubs are on a fairly similar level this year. The focus of both teams is to secure a new contract, but the fans demand a little more than that. There are two great clubs that wrap up a lot of fans at their matches, but in terms of gameplay it's not so much fun to watch. I think this is going to be very tight as none of the teams really enjoy running the game. I therefore believe in a relatively low goal match and like the prices below 2.5 goals here.

The main thing I like about Dyche is that he is never too up and too down," Kightly told Talksport. If you lose a game 3-0 on a Saturday, he is not going mental and having you in on a Sunday, and running you. At the same time, if you win 3-0 and play really well, he is not saying that you're brilliant and we've made it.
The 33-year-old had been linked by the British media with a move to Premier League side Manchester United but will continue his career in the Qatari top flight having terminated his deal with Juventus, which was due to expire in June 2021. Mandzukic scored 44 goals in 162 games in all competitions for Juventus after joining them from Spain's Atletico Madrid in 2014, but has not featured in the current campaign under manager Maurizio Sarri.
Fans and commercial partners in the region always want to be associated with success and Liverpool's recent achievements in the Champions League and Club World Cup can be used to leverage more lucrative deals with sponsors. About 40 Liverpool fans watched Minamino's debut in a pub in Tokyo'An eruption of euphoria'Cynics may be quick to mention shirt sales and commercial reasons as key factors behind Klopp acquiring the 24-year-old forward, but Japanese supporters insist he has the talent to succeed on Merseyside.
The decision about his contract has come about because of coronavirus and its impact on the women's football calendar. Idealy, the FA wants someone to take the side through the Tokyo Olympics - where the manager will lead a Great Britain team - the Euros and the 2023 World Cup so that there is continuity. But that means Neville would need to commit until 2023 and, the Olympics aside, he faces a further two years of friendly matches with England because of their host status for the European Championship.
Of those, Bong is the only one I'd be sad to see leave. He's been a good servant to the club. BurnleyTony Scholes - UpTheClarets. We don't have the biggest squad and so there are a number of positions that could do with strengthening - but nowhere more than the centre of midfield, where we are very short on numbers following the departure of Danny Drinkwater. A midfielder and a striker coming in would mean a very good window.
