A week after Manchester City learned their two-year European ban had been overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas), tensions are still running high. Some senior figures within the game are annoyed City have not been punished for Financial Fair Play regulation breaches, while the club are angry at the behaviour of some of their rivals. Last week, Guardiola demanded an apology and told rival clubs to stop "whispering" about City behind their backs.
He came to see me in my house and told me he wanted to lead the team at Euro 2020 and afterwards he would be happy to be my assistant coach again. I understand that he has worked very hard to be the coach and that he is ambitious - but for me that is disloyal. I would never do something like that and I don't want someone with those characteristics in my staff.
Everton have sacked manager Marco Silva after 18 months, with the club in the Premier League relegation zone after their Merseyside derby humiliation. Wednesday's 5-2 defeat by Liverpool at Anfield was their ninth of the season and leaves them 18th in the Premier League after three successive losses. Silva, who took charge in May 2018, won 24 and lost 24 of his 60 games. Everton are now searching for their fourth permanent boss since Roberto Martinez was sacked in May 2016.
The season starting in South Korea as well. Jeonbuk finished first last season with a goal difference of 64:30 and they have been champions for three years in a row. Three players left Jeonbuk but they bought three good reinforcements so I believe they will replace them and this season they are attacking the title !!! As for Suwon, they started the AFC Champions and tied two defeats: Johor 2:1 and Kobe 0:1. In the last seven mutual duels at Jeonbuk Stadium, in five times Jeonbuk scored two goals in that match. This match is played without the audience. My opinion is over 2 goals. Good luck

The fact is that we really don’t know much,” Ceferin explained. We are waiting for the development of this terrible situation in the world, and mainly in Europe. It is still better to play the game behind closed doors and have it on TV, which is what the people need and want because it brings positive energy to their homes, than not playing at all. That’s what the people want, that brings positive energy, and it will be July or August.
A special sort of animosity’“Previous”. This is the polite phrase many of the 1970 final’s participants use to explain the history and lasting grievances being carried into the game at Old Trafford. On a grander scale, Leeds-Chelsea was the north-south divide personified. The Blues were seen as the fashionable southern fancy-dans, who hung out drinking champagne with celebrities on the Kings Road, while the Whites were perceived as the dour, gritty northerners, smoking cigarettes and playing carpet bowls in their working men's club.
Rashford wrote: "Political affiliations aside, can we not all agree that no child should be going to be hungry?"The United youth-team graduate, who is one of five children, added: "As a black man from a low-income family in Wythenshawe, Manchester, I could have been just another statistic. Instead, due to the selfless actions of my mum, my family, my neighbours, and my coaches, the only stats I'm associated with are goals, appearances and caps.
I'm sure he enjoyed the game and whoever it is is coming to fantastic club with fantastic fans who create an atmosphere like that. Ferguson, who served under Roberto Martinez, Ronald Koeman, Sam Allardyce and Silva, is under no illusions, but he was able to share his joy with his wife and children before heading into his post-match media duties. He said: "The fans wanted a bit of Everton identity and this was a bit of a free hit.
Broadcaster beoutQ has been illegally showing matches - mainly in Saudi Arabia - despite the rights in the region belonging to Qatar-based beIN Sports, which is in the middle of a three-year deal with the Premier League worth £400m. Last year, football authorities attempted to shut the beoutQ service down without success. Saudi broadcaster Arabsat has always denied that beoutQ uses its frequencies to show matches illegally and has accused beIN of being behind "defamation attempts and misleading campaigns".
Braga score an average of 1.80 goals per home game and Rio Ave concede an average of 1.00 goals per away game, which adds more weight to our prediction for a 1-0 home win on Monday. Braga have scored 9 goals at home this season, while Rio Ave have only scored 5 goals on the road. The hosts have only failed to score in 20% of their home games while Monday’s guests have failed to score in 60% of their away games.
The club would like to thank SportPesa for all of the work that has been done together. At Everton's annual general meeting last month, chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale said "in an ideal world" the club would prefer a different type of sponsor. Of the Premier League's 20 clubs, 10 teams started the season with betting companies as shirt sponsors.
Jill Ellis, who coached the United States to World Cup victories in 2015 and 2019, remains a favourite to succeed Neville, while Chelsea manager Emma Hayes, ex-Manchester City coach Nick Cushing and Manchester United's Casey Stoney are among those in contention for the role. The FA announced last month it would make 124 positions redundant, as it faces losses of around £300m caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
Finland captain Tim Sparv "We've been looking forward to this for a really long time. It would have been the first time that Finland was in a European Championship so it's a bit sad," Sparv told Reuters. But in the general perspective, in the big picture, football is a really small matter. Now it's about life and death and trying to control the spread of the virus, so it's a good decision.
Inter won the first leg 2-0. Next weekend's matches include a clash between leaders Juventus and Inter in Sunday's late game.

With a nine-point gap between them and the drop, they won't sweat relegation just yet, but any hopes of obtaining a play-off spot look foolish. A promising start to the season gave way to a mediocre slump in October that they have yet to recover from. They have only won four of their last 19 league matches, a run that is unsustainable if they want to preserve their status as a Championship club.

Arsenal extend their unbeaten run to seven games in all competitions, as well as being unbeaten in seven successive Premier League away games. In truth, though, they were uninspired for long periods of this game, failing to gain a boost from the return of captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after a three-match ban. It was Aubameyang who had their best chances, miscuing when put through by David Luiz and later heading wide.

The Gunners have won three of their four games in this group and have a healthy four point lead over Standard Liege, who they travel to in their last match. A win for Arsenal will take them into the last 32 and perhaps take a bit of the pressure off manager Unai Emery. Arsenal have gone six league and cup games without a win but over 90 minutes, they have drawn five of them including a 5-5 draw at Anfield in the Carabao Cup.
Former Liverpool and Celtic manager Rodgers was appointed at Leicester in February and after presiding over a ninth-place finish last term, he has seen his team win 10 of their first 14 league matches this season. Arsenal sacked Emery after 18 months in charge during their longest winless run since 1992. The Gunners, who are eighth in the table, 13 points behind Leicester, have placed their former midfielder Freddie Ljungberg in interim charge.
The away team have been playing in some low scoring matches where there have been 2 or less goals scored in these matches. There have been 2 matches with 2 goals scored and 2 matches with 1 or less goals scored in their past 4 away matches. This could be another low scoring match I feel with their attack not being as strong and their defending actually looking very good at the moment. It could be a match where no goal will be scored as we seen this recently and also seen that 1-0 result also making the odds look good
Kerr managed the Republic from 2003 to 2005 and, like Kenny, is a former Shamrock Rovers boss and also coached the nation's underage international teams before stepping up to the senior job. He says Kenny can expect a lot more scrutiny than he has experienced in any previous role. I'm sure Michael O'Neill also found that when he moved on from Shamrock Rovers and became manager of Northern Ireland," added Kerr.
A grown man should not go on the floor for that push but he wanted the maximum amount of punishment to be given to Di Canio. Come on man. I was at West Ham with him and he would get away with murder. If any decisions went against him in training, he would just walk off. He would be speaking in Italian and his arms would be waving all over the place. He was so intent on winning even the five-a-side games.

Should be very easy 3 points for the hosts who do badly need them to stay above the relegation zone, while it is for sure Kaposvar will finish bottom in the league and relegate as they really have just 10 points won so far this season, and 3 of them came at home in the first part of the season against Debrecen winning 4-1 back then, but last game for them after the break they lost 6-0 at home against another side fighting against relegation.
