No bad for a side who play the football they play. In normal circumstances, Simeone's record in knockout matches reads in binary such are the volume of ones and zeros, but this was not one of those nights, as the gameplan was executed to perfection. The approach is simple, and often effective: get that lead and hang on to it.
All hail the King. Denis Law, always in the conversation when talk turns to the greatest Scottish player of all time, is 80 today. Law is best remembered as part of the famous Manchester United trinity alongside George Best and Bobby Charlton. A Ballon d'Or winner in 1964, he won 55 caps for Scotland, scoring 30 international goals. Here BBC Scotland takes a look at the moments that defined the Aberdonian's stellar career.

You just have to hope something can be resolved so they can take the trophy they richly deserve. He's come in, he laid out what he wanted and what he will do - and he's done it. Shearer: "Even last season some of the football they played was sensational.

Dinamo Brest have only lost two of their last 12 home league games. Dinamo Minsk have only won one of their last eight away league games. Dinamo Minsk have lost four of their seven league games this season. Defending champions Dinamo Brest won 3-0 at the weekend to move up to 10th in the Belarus Premier League.
Only Liverpool and Manchester City have won more points away from home than Wolves. Both teams are in the top seven when it comes to Premier League defensive records. Two outsiders in the race for European football meet on Wednesday when Sheffield United host Wolves at Bramall Lane. The Blades are eighth in the table (with their game against Burnley in play at the time of writing) which could be a high enough position to earn a European place depending on who wins the FA Cup.
Winning titles helped feed Liverpool's soul. Little did they know how long they would be starved. The club have rarely been without hope in intervening years which have brought all the other major trophies - but, in a title context, it is the hope that has killed them. And even on the brink of this crowning achievement, when they stood just six points from their goal, the global coronavirus pandemic halted the season and added another three months to the waiting time, leaving the most pessimistic supporters fearing the season could be declared null and void.
Betts added: "Why would you sign contracts and pay money if others just take it for free? It undermines the whole Premier League and it's like inviting a cuckoo into the nest. While the Premier League needs to seriously look at any potential conflict between the ownership of a football club and the alleged three-year theft of UK media rights by the future owner, the government should take a role, not sit on the bench.
Avai lost to second bottom Chapecoense last time out and the ill feeling around the club was clearly displayed in said match, with midfielder Matheus Barbosa sent off for showing his middle finger to his own team's fans. Having secured just 2 points from their last 13 matches, spirits couldn't be any lower in visiting ranks and it's fair to say it looks like being a long evening for them in Sao Paulo.
Eibar host local rivals Athletic club after a defeat in their league restart. Eibar lost 3-1 at Bernabeu on last match day just hours after Bilbao picked up a valuable 1-1 draw against Atletico Madrid.
Obviously what I hear when people are saying ‘Paul is doing this…Paul…Paul’ I don’t know. One day maybe I will meet them [the critics] and ask them because I really want to know why," he said. I am doing my recovery, I can be somewhere else and I hear something but I’m just doing my recovery, you know?’ If they want to speak they are allowed to speak, it’s their job to speak.
This game pits two very prolific sides in attack and both are coming from draws, thus will go all out for a win. This being a cup game, will further make it an open game with the sides looking to win in 90 minutes. We thus expect to see goals and over 2.5 goals looks likely.

On one occasion, during a home loss to Burnley in March 2018, a fan grabbed a corner flag and tried to plant it in the centre circle while insults, and coins, were hurled at the occupants of the directors' box at the London Stadium. Saturday's 1-1 draw at home to Everton, Moyes's second home game since returning to east London for a second rescue mission, was again marked by unrest as hundreds of fans protested against owners David Sullivan and David Gold.
Of course it's competitive, but at the end of the day it's for the team. Unsurprisingly, it was a sentiment shared by Andonovski himself. I love that fact that nobody feels locked on this roster," he told reporters. It's a competition and they embrace it. The United States, which defeated England 2-0 in their first match of the SheBelieves Cup, face Spain on Sunday at 5:00 pm ET.
Former captain Granit Xhaka could make his first Arsenal appearance since October in Thursday's Europa League tie against Eintracht Frankfurt. Xhaka was stripped of the captaincy after reacting angrily to jeers from Gunners fans while being substituted during a 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace. He's in the group and has the possibility to play tomorrow," said boss Unai Emery. I hope every supporter supports the team.
Now that Pogba is injured and likely to leave, it opens a space for Fernandes to be the main man in midfield. Fernandes brings creativity and goals from the centre of the park, something that has been desperately missing at the club for years. If United can bring him in for a lower fee than what has been demanded and get Rojo off their books then it could be a decent deal for the Premier League side.
Exactly two goals have been scored in 33% of Emmen’s home games as well as in a massive 56% of Heracles’ away games, all of which points towards there being a good chance of Sunday’s match ending in a 1-1 draw. We’re confident that both teams will score this Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-1. Heracles have drawn a lot of away games this season and will be confident of coming away from their trip to Emmen with at least a point to show for their efforts, having outplayed Sunday’s hosts, for the most part, this season.
Real, who are second in La Liga, were due to host Eibar on Friday and had already cancelled all pre-match media duties. The coronavirus outbreak, now declared a pandemic, has led to widespread disruption of sporting fixtures around the world. In Italy, all sport is suspended, including Serie A until 3 April, with the country in lockdown. Juventus and Italy centre-back Daniele Rugani says he is "fine" after testing positive for the virus, and Reuters have reported that the entire Juve squad will spend two weeks in quarantine.
Many communities could lose the clubs at their heart with little chance of resurrection. In the face of this unprecedented adversity, all the stakeholders within the game from players, fans, clubs, owners and administrators need to step up and share the pain to keep the game alive. Taylor donates £500k Professional Footballers' Association chief Gordon Taylor has donated £500,000 pounds to the Premier League players' fund for the NHS.
He said: "I urge our government to utilise our defence forces. Our defence forces have been mentioned as a possibility in assisting our 15,000 available Gardai [police], but only if necessary. However, it is necessary. We cannot go by chance here. Any less than full adherence to these newly put forth methods by any member of our society will not only be a mockery to what we are attempting to do, it would put the rest of our great nation in danger.
That hinted at a difficult night for Real Madrid, but Karim Benzema equalised after 37 minutes, heading home a Luka Modric free kick delivery, before Fede Valverde had a deflected strike from distance find the back of the net to give the hosts the lead. Bale came off the bench to the sound of jeers and whistles from home supporters upset at the controversial ‘Wales.
The second half was nothing to do with tactics it was all to do with spirit and desire. Leno's costly errors - the statsChelsea are the first team to win five away Premier League games against Arsenal at Emirates Stadium. Since his Premier League debut in February 2018, Arsenal's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has scored 45 league goals - 22 more than any other Gunners player in that time. Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno has made more errors leading to goals than any other Premier League player since August 2018 (seven).
Cucuta Deportivo will host Atletico Nacional for this fixture of the league. Both sides are not very good teams in this campaign. Both teams have a poor results in the last matches. In any case, I expect another one tough match for both sides. In my opinion, the visitors have a real chance to make a positive result in this match. I believe, Atletico is better team than their opponent. Also, Atletico have better results in the last mutual matches. Also, we have Cucuta who's is one of the main outsiders in this league. Hosts have less potential. Also, they have a vulnerable defense. So, my pick - Atletico Nacional to win.

Edouard would make the first-half difference. Credit to Griffiths for stealing the ball from Liam Donnelly before feeding McGregor, who combined with Edouard on the edge of the box. The French striker saw his initial shot blocked but it bounced fortuitously back into his path and he fired low past Mark Gillespie to make it 1-0.
After embarking on a 5-game drawing streak and then losing to Celtic, the Hibees finally won their first game since August with a 4-1 victory over St Johnstone. The Edinburgh club has scored an impressive 16 goals so far, averaging 1.33 in all games. This number rises to 1.5 goals in their home ties, with Hibs also conceding the same amount on average and keeping a clean sheet in just 17% of those matches at Easter Road.
Dele looked more of a threat once Mourinho changed the shape of his side at the break but he lacks the physical presence to unsettle Burnley's defensive pair Mee and James Tarkowski. Mee in particular was a commanding presence once Tottenham sorted themselves out after the break and ensured goalkeeper Nick Pope was not truly tested. The result leaves Tottenham four points behind Chelsea, having played a game more.

So only time will tell. Southgate said last week both Kane, who returned to training on Monday, and Rashford were on track in their recoveries but would not close the door on a recall for Vardy. The striker admitted, however, that being out of the England side had helped him. I'm not going to lie, I've had a few extra days off in the international breaks so I've been able to switch off completely from football and it's always beneficial," Vardy said.
