The concept of ‘developing the game’, I think, understates the penetration of football. Football is everywhere, it is in every corner of the world. Football really is the sport of the people and the Arab world is no different,” he told Reuters in an interview. The evidence for Al Thawadi’s view, has been clear during the Club World Cup in Doha, which concludes on Saturday with the final between European champions Liverpool and South America’s top team Flamengo of Brazil.
Can Ljungberg stake his claim?Plenty of big-name managers have already been linked with the vacant managerial position at Emirates Stadium, but could Ljungberg conceivably remain as permanent manager?Compared with other frontrunners for the position, Ljungberg's CV does not measure up to the Premier League experience of former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino or Wolves' Nuno Espirito Santo - nor the European credentials of Massimiliano Allegri and Carlo Ancelotti.
Zhodino become draw specialists. They played two goalless draws in the last two rounds - with BATE Borisov and Rukh Brest. Both matches finished with the same result - 0:0. The good thing is they did not conceded. But on the opposite, they failed to score a single goal on the last two matches which is poor. FC Minsk, meanwhile, have nine points. They have three wins and three defeats in the first six rounds, meaning they are yet to play a draw. However it is clear they will play a draw, soon or later. Coach Razin will definitely be satisfy with one point here.

It's fair to say recent seasons haven't been the easiest for Inter fans but the side finally look like competing at the top level once again. Antonio Conte has done an excellent job since coming in and currently top of Serie A and with their last 16 fate in their own hands, Inter are running along nicely on all fronts this season.
Since joining Antonio Conte's side Eriksen had played 137 minutes across five matches but failed to register a goal or assist. However, on a night that Inter controlled - limiting the hosts to just one off-target effort - his calm finish into the bottom right-hand corner past Plamen Iliev demonstrated his quality. Manchester United loanee Alexis Sanchez also played for Inter alongside former Chelsea winger Victor Moses and Ashley Young came off the bench as a second-half substitute.
We should have gone better than we did in the second half but you have to give them credit as well," Van Dijk said. Unfortunately we got that red card with Alisson then we just had to defend. City have now won only once in their last five games in all competitions and will be kicking themselves after twice leading at struggling Newcastle.
Nottingham Forest: 3rd (77 points, 1. The following season, it was new boys Nottingham Forest's turn to set the top flight alight. Forest, and legendary boss Brian Clough, had been relegated in the inaugural Premier League season but returned at the first attempt and for a spell looked like mounting an unlikely title challenge. After a mid-season blip, they recovered to go unbeaten in their final 12 games of the season and finish third behind champions Blackburn and Manchester United.
Hello everyone. Today is going to be a very exciting football match. Two teams are facing each other in this Premier League match in England. Leicester City vs. Chelsea. Both [teams players] have played recently with results to follow, so the outcome of this game can be unpredictable. However, I find it interesting to place a bet on over 2.5.
Horn and Grazer will face each other in the upcoming match in the 2. Liga in Austria. Horn this season have the following results: 4W, 6D and 8L. Meanwhile Grazer have 4W, 7D and 7L.

Brighton and Hove Albion are 15th but a win for 19th placed Watford will take them level on points with the south coast side. Brighton did well last week to grab a point at West Ham and start the weekend two points clear of the bottom three.

They had celebrated with gusto a week earlier after regaining the title; this time the party was low-key – mainly because they were so close to Barcelona, perhaps also because the win had been so undemanding. On the Sunday they went to Bisham Abbey, the England training complex, to begin preparations.

It is not the first time fans have protested against the club's hierarchy. They vented their frustrations during a march outside the stadium ahead of the game against arch-rivals Liverpool in October. I can only say from when I've been here I've been backed by the owners, I've been backed by Ed and they're supporting me, so for me, make sure they stick together," Solskjaer added.
Friendly match between two members of the fifth rank at the Sweden football leagues, where home side was relegated from the Norra Svealand in the previous year. After that, they left without a lot of players, and team should go up with semi amateur players from their town.
Jorginho scored the resultant penalty, and from that point Arsenal were chasing things. But they actually did pretty well. The glorious phenomenon that is Gabriel Martinelli equalised after the break, bamboozling N’Golo Kante into falling to the ground like he was trying out motorised rollerskates for the first time and didn’t really have the hang of it.
Tiers three to seven of the women's domestic pyramid were cancelled in March and results expunged, meaning there will be no promotion and relegation between the second and third tiers. The FA's statement added that it will "work with the clubs and our stakeholders across football to plan for next season", and hope to announce a target start date for the 2020-21 season soon. It is still not known if this season's Women's FA Cup, which had reached the quarter-final stage, will be concluded, with further discussions planned for later this month.
I couldn't agree more. Not only was it a shocking decision, it didn't take into account that Moura was fouled and tried to break his fall by putting his hand out. The referee waved play on and was right to do so. Why VAR felt the need to poke its nose in, where it is not wanted or required, I don't know. Technology might be in a position to identify when a ball strikes a hand but what it can't do is apply context because it's a machine.
I think this game is pretty good game to try with draw because Cracovia didn't played draw for a very long time,13 games in a row and since they are in horrible shape I think they will be pretty happy with a draw and on the other side lechia played some very interesting games recently with a lot of scored and conceded goals but I think this game is not going to be like that, I expect under 2,5 but the odd one that is too low for me and I think it is time for draw 0-0 or obviously 1-1
For those looking to get financially involved in this fixture, 'Under 2.5 Goals' looks a reasonable bet at the prices. Given that neither side has thrived offensively in their respective home and away games, a low-scoring game could easily be shorter in the betting. Rochdale have scored an average of just 0.89 goals at home this term, while Portsmouth have scored an average of just 0.86 on their travels. Moreover, neither side has conceded goals by the bucket load, shipping average of just 1.22 and 1.29.
Whether Farke will be in charge after a dreadful run of form remains to be seen, while Norwich's hierarchy has some tough decisions to make concerning the future of the club's playing assets. In November 2019, the Canaries announced losses of £38m for the financial year ending June 2019 before senior staff forecast a profit in the region of £16m for 2019-20. That was before the season was suspended, Norwich warning in April that they could lose up to £35m because of the coronavirus pandemic.
He’s a yard offside!’ A throwback to the very start of the decade, when Chelsea and Manchester United were battling it out for the 2009-10 Premier League title. Chelsea travelled to Old Trafford a point behind United with six games to play, and ultimately leap-frogged the Red Devils with a 2-1 away win.
Time and quality players. Harry (Maguire) and Victor (Lindelof) and David (De Gea) have been excellent," he said "Luke Shaw has been absolutely top class, Aaron (Wan-Bissaka) you can see his performance today and Brandon (Williams) is not fazed by anything. Solskjaer was credited a year ago with bringing the 'feel-good factor' back to the club but that vibe appeared to have faded earlier this season.
In the last 3 seasons, CSKA Moscow couldn't win and maybe this season too. After the winter break, CSKA Moscow showed a poor performance: Ural held 1-1 and lost to host Rostov 2-3. In addition, they were eliminated from the Russian Cup by Spartak Moscow.. At the moment, Viktor Goncharenko's army is only 5th in the table with 35 points, 12 points behind the leader Zenit. Therefore, the most practical goal of CSKA Moscow is probably to reach the top 3 for the Champions League next season. In round 22, the traditional Russian rich team, CSKA Moscow welcomes Ufa at home. In addition to the yard advantage, CSKA Moscow also excels in class, team quality and experience.

Pescara is slight favorite in a duel against Chievo. Host has won in last round at away against Livorno, but today they will have a much harder job. Chievo was defeated in last round against Benevento, but they are leaders at standings, and Chievo was not inferior in that duel. There is no huge difference in a quality between those two clubs, they have the same number of points at standings. Chievo will play with two players in attack, probably Djordjevic and Meggiorini, but I am sure that visitors will not to play risky in this duel. Both sides will be satisfied with a draw.
The coach of Real Sociedad's women team has warned that no one can compete with Barcelona after the "humiliation" of a 10-1 Spanish Super Cup final defeat. Gonzalo Arconada has questioned whether Barca's superiority is good for the Spanish women's game. Marta Torrejon scored four, Alexia Putellas and Asisat Oshoala two each and Caroline Hansen one as Sociedad were thrashed in Salamanca.
