Klopp though was forgiving of his players failing to turn spells of domination into a more emphatic victory. I understand sometimes concentration levels drop. In the past I would have gone crazy, but now I'm calm," he said. We played sensational football. We could have scored more and maybe should have scored more.
FC Shakhtar Donetsk enter UCL group stage finale vs Atalanta as narrow betting favorites Shakhtar can advance to the knockout stage with a win in Wednesday’s contest Atalanta have won two straight, but do not control their own destiny going into their clash with Shakhtar Undefeated in six straight outings across all competitions, the Miners currently sit second on the Group C table with a 1-3-1 win-draw-loss record in tournament action, but remain just two points up on last-place on the Nerazzurri going into Wednesday afternoon’s Shakhtar Donetsk vs Atalanta matchup at Metalist Oblast Sports Complex in Kharkiv, Ukraine.
Excellent. The final match of Round 26 ones to us on Monday, and I expect a good bit of fireworks to be going off. First of all, the straight 3 on this total leaves me sitting just fine should they get stuck at 2 - 1. Return my money, walk away, no harm no foul. Secondly, the price of +108 (2.08) is just as lovely. I would be not shocked if we saw two goals in the opening stanza and a wild race in the second-half that could produce two, if not 3 goals in the final 45. This could be a 3 - 2 affair in other words.
Juventus is in the drop of the form, and they have lost few games in the time, against some of the low placed teams. They will face young Real team, which was close to big win in Managua, against Walter, but conceded a late goal for 1:1 draw.

The first goal scored in the new stadium was an own goal from unfortunate Antlers defender Tomoya Inukai in the 18th minute before Kobe striker Noriaki Fujimoto added a second 20 minutes later following some more poor defending. Saturday's win marks the first time in their history that Kobe have their hands on some silverware and vindicates the high wages forked out by owner Hiroshi Mikitani in recent years.
Video - Euro Papers: Liverpool could re-sign Coutinho… if first-choice target fails01:14 "We were on a good path and despite difficult games had moved six points away from the relegation spots. I am totally convinced that Hertha will stay up," Klinsmann said in a statement. But for that task to be completed, as head coach I need the trust of all those involved.
It needs very, very careful thinking through. League leaders Liverpool were 25 points clear of reigning champions City when the Premier League was suspended because of the coronavirus pandemic on 13 March. Hopkins added: "What we're fearful of is that people will turn up either at neutral grounds or at home grounds, and some of that could be particularly problematic. I'm not saying from a policing perspective it would be impossible to police because clearly it wouldn't - we police hundreds of thousands of people in normal circumstances at events right across Greater Manchester.
Lawro's prediction: 0-2Alex's prediction: I've got lots of allegiance with Norwich - my aunt and uncle lived there and we would go up there a lot. I actually played on Carrow Road with my cousins the day before the main stand burnt down in 1984. I love Norwich. They are a proper club - if you are from there, everyone supports them, and goes. So my heart says Norwich, but my head does not give them a chance.
Hope Powell's squad in 2012 was largely represented by English players - only two from Scotland featured and none from Wales or Northern Ireland. But other home nations are on the up now. Scotland competed in their first World Cup last year, while Wales narrowly missed out on a play-off spot and FAW chief Jonathan Ford has vowed to increase funding for women's football. Eleven of the players in last summer's Scotland squad currently play in the WSL, as well as former Manchester City forward Claire Emslie, who is on loan at Melbourne City from Orlando Pride.
With both sides playing open, attacking football, Chelsea took the lead in the 33rd minute when Reece James crossed for Olivier Giroud to send his effort onto the crossbar, with Alonso on hand to smash home the rebound. Bournemouth bounced back with a headed goal from Jefferson Lerma nine minutes after the break and three minutes later they were ahead, Joshua King tapping the ball home from close range after a superb ball in from the right by Jack Stacey.
Manchester City won't be winning the Premier League but they still have the FA Cup and Champions League to play for. They are in top form with eight goals in their last two games and will cause plenty of problems for Chelsea. The home side struggled to get a win at Aston Villa and have lost five home league games this season. Go for City to get a win here.
Astra today will be with Botosani and this game we have given the home team to win this game or they will give us a draw at full-time as the home team looking at the way they have being playing in both home and away games we can be very sure that this game they will not lose it
Sunderland haven't been in great form, but this game cannot be described anything but a gilt-edged chance for them to put a much-needed three points on the board. Punters can profit by backing 'Sunderland to Win & Over 1.5 Goals'. At home, the hosts remain a useful side, while they have a good record against the lesser teams having beaten MK Dons, Southend, Tranmere and AFC Wimbledon. They scored at least twice in three of those four victories. Combine this with Bolton's dreadful away record and backing the hosts to notch twice on route to victory makes plenty of appeal.
Solskjaer’s future is under the spotlight at United, particularly with Mauricio Pochettino declaring himself ready to return to management after he was dismissed by Tottenham.

Last season, Everton were underdogs for both games but were one of the few sides who managed to match Liverpool and were unfortunate not to pick up more than a point. As former Reds defender Mark Lawrenson told BBC Sport: "This is a fixture that scares Liverpool fans. They know it is dangerous, because Everton will raise their game.
Data reflects all players who have played 500+ mins in Europe's top five leaguesHe shoots, he scoresWhat truly puts Sancho at the front of the pack chasing Messi's long and impressively woven coat-tails is his ruthlessness in front of goal. As a wide forward, he may not get the same amount of chances as a more central striker but, when the opportunities do come, he is as good as any at putting them in the back of the net.
Sitting just two points behind the top six, a sixth home win of the campaign this weekend could see Martinez' charges close in on the European places as Christmas approaches and they will be confident about dispatching a Levante side who have struggled on the road this term.
Jeju Utd were playing a high scoring football in the K League 1 in the previous season. In the regular season they have scored 37 goals in 33 games played but in total have allowed 61 goals and were among the worst in the league so this season they will compete in the K League 2.

Live gym sessions & GPS tracking Brighton are using GPS trackers to monitor the players' fitness and defender Felicity Gibbons says they "complete their gym programmes together on a Zoom call" four times a week.

However, Bale's breakthrough moment - some stunning free-kicks aside - came in the Champions League with unfancied Spurs drawn against European champions Inter Milan in the group stages. Goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes was sent off after eight minutes and Tottenham found themselves 4-0 down at the San Siro, before a stunning second-half hat-trick from Bale. He tore Maicon - arguably the best right-back in the world at the time - to shreds as he single-handedly restored some pride from the Premier League team.

The Italian will be able to take charge of Everton's weekend match when Arsenal visit Goodison Park, potentially under the new management of Mikel Arteta.

I don't know if people really know what happened," he added. So I had a foot injury, which came in the game against Southampton [on 31 August]. It was early this season and so I carried this for a long time, training and trying to be playing with it. After I stopped, I found I had a fracture. I had a cast on it, a plaster cast, so it went very well but too well. The bone got bigger and so, when I came back again, I played those two games against Watford and Newcastle [in December], I could feel something again.
Sakai, who has 42 caps for Japan, first reported having a fever on Wednesday and was diagnosed with acute upper respiratory infection in a hospital the following day.

In the play-off race, there were important wins for Cardiff City and Derby County, who beat Preston North End and Reading respectively.
Away squad went from the bottom, and they have a lot of experience in fighting against relegation at the Regional level of the league. Their play could be better, as team got some professionals from the higher leagues.

Greuther Furth have been in decent form after the winter break with a 3-3-2 record in 8 matches and at home they have won 7 of the 13 matches so far this season. And in the last 6 home games they have scored a total of 13 goals.
So what does Bruce see in the player and why does he continue to lead the line for the Magpies?A number nine who plays outside the box The Brazilian was Bruce's first signing when he replaced Rafael Benitez, and the striker was handed the famous number nine shirt previously worn by club legends Jackie Milburn, Alan Shearer and Andy Cole. But the former Hoffenheim frontman - who scored just seven Bundesliga goals last season - has failed to live up to those before him, a winner against Tottenham back in August being his only English top-flight strike so far.

League match where Orihuela and Nucia are going to face. The Orihuela scores few goals and is thrashed. They have not won the last 10 games played and fits goal in the last 15 games. Little offensive, at home usually scores and fit goals. But their home ground is tough as they raise their level playing at home, but has not yet won at home.

Offensive team, away from home usually scores and concedes goals.
