It was a sweet moment for Ormerod, who had previously netted for Blackpool in a League Two play-off final victory against Leyton Orient in 2001. It also secured for the Tangerines top-flight football for the first time in nearly 40 years as Ian Holloway capped a remarkable first season in charge at Bloomfield Road. Watford 3-1 Leicester City (Watford won 3-2 on aggregate)Surely no single minute encapsulates the brilliance of the play-offs quite like the final 60 seconds of the Championship play-off semi-final between Watford and Leicester in 2013.
Players from Valencia, Espanyol and Alaves have tested positive for the virus and Roures said if another player was to contract the disease then the season would have to be cancelled. If a player tested positive, for example on July 20, we'd have to throw in the towel and say goodbye to the season," Roures added.

A new scheme to increase the number of black, Asian and minority ethnic coaches is "not the giant leap" needed, says Kick It Out chair Sanjay Bhandari. The Premier League, English Football League and Professional Footballers' Association scheme aims to help BAME players become full-time coaches. At present there only five BAME managers across the top flight and EFL. Speaking to BBC Sport, Bhandari said: "By 2025 we need 20% of boards to be people of colour and 25% of coaches.
Raheem Sterling? Yaya Toure? David Silva? The choices don't get any easier, do they?Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United are the only multiple Premier League winners - and over the past few days we have asked you to pick your ultimate title-winning team for each club. It is City's turn on Thursday, and this is no simple task with the club having lifted the trophy four times, winning their first in 2012.
He did not follow Marcus Rashford's lead and jump into them, or Jesse Lingard's in taking off his shirt and throwing it their way. But he looked very happy. He hadn't just won. He had won in the style he wanted. It is confirmation of the direction we are going," he said. We looked like a Manchester United team. That is a big thing for me. Solskjaer was asked whether it had been his best performance since he took the call from Woodward on 19 December.
Ajax Jong score an average of 2.50 goals per away game and concede an average of 1.60 goals while PSV Jong score an average of 1.30 goals per home game and concede an average of 1.40 goals, which is why we have predicted a 2-1 away win for the visitors on Monday night. PSV Jong’s home games produce an average of 2.70 total goals while Ajax Jong’s away games produce an average of 4.10 total goals, adding further weight to our prediction for over 2.5 goals to be scored in Monday’s clash.
I really fancy this bet and I say this just looking at how Ludogorets played their 3 visits here at Etar in the league during the past 3 season everytime they scored 4+ goals and in two of those games also conceded one goal as all those games went with even over 4.5 goals scored in them while Etar has some really big losses at home this season for example CSKA Sofia won here with 5-0 in the end and once they start conceding they do mind conceding more being quite open type of team.

If Juventus win the Champions League, he will equal Francisco Gento's record of six European Cups. Ronaldo and Messi currently share the record for Champions League hat-tricks with eight each. Will Ronaldo pull ahead? If he wins the Golden Boot in Italy, he will become the first player to win the award in three countries. He has currently scored 20 in the league, five fewer than Lazio's Ciro Immobile.
Give soldiers footballers’ wages’, the clarion call of a certain strain of Twitter user, has become ‘give footballers’ wages to. That is the point. This is a more complex issue than Hancock would like to convey. At clubs which have admirably already committed to maintaining non-playing staff wages at 100%, including Crystal Palace and Manchester United, players agreeing to take a giant pay cut of around 70%, as they have at Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, would simply enrich the club coffers.

Therefore our men's first team, women and academy players are all remaining at home. Stay at home and save lives. Several Arsenal players had gone into self-isolation after the news of Marinakis' positive test, while the Gunners were due to face Manchester City at Etihad Stadium on 11 March. Speaking on Sunday, Arteta added: "I got a call from the board of directors after training while I was in my car and they told me the president of Olympiakos had tested positive, and everyone who had been in contact was at risk.
This form will see Motta out the door unless they turn things around soon. The Grifone have had little patience with managers, while the fact that they let Aurelio Andreazzoli stay too long probably counts against his successor. Motta needs to save his managerial career against his former club, but Genoa have reasons to fear Inter. The Nerazzurri were at their best in clashes with the Grifone last season, winning 9-0 across the two meetings.
Burnley are coming from a heavy defeat and will be seeking to make amends here, while Watford are looking to avoid the drop. Watford can fight, as we have seen in a number of their matches this season. However, they are among the poorest sides away from home in the league, with just two wins in 15. On the other hand, Burnley have been fairly comfortable at home and have a good run too over Watford in the last few meetings. With the two sides’ home/away forms, we feel a Burnley win is more likely here.
Norwich stayed in the contest and raised the roof when Lewis fired in what proved to be the winner. Collecting Ed Aarons’ cross after it evaded everyone, Lewis took a touch and drilled in his first ever Premier League goal with a strike that oozed quality. Leicester threw the kitchen sink at Norwich late on, but Norwich held on for only their second league win since November.
I just made sure I finished, but I loved it. I think in lockdown I was just missing my sport more than anything, because you get so used to being stimulated by it every week - especially football. I was missing all sports, even the ones I don't usually like, but I am so excited that football is back. Media playback is not supported on this device Is Daniil Kvyat joining Biffy Clyro? Neil is a huge Scotland fan who - possibly - could have been cheering them on to glory at Euro 2020 (the quarter-finals were scheduled for this weekend) if they had made it through the play-offs and the tournament had not been postponed until next summer because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Subs: Riedewald 6, Tosun 6. KEY MOMENTS 28’ CLASH! Zaha spits in the direction of Brighton substitute Schelotto. Zaha then holds his hands to his ears in front of the Brighton fans, and Schelotto kicks the ball in Zaha's direction. Schelotto gets a yellow. Zaha, however, escapes without a card when he should have seen yellow as well.
Shearer: "All I'm going to say is - 260. And I was injured for three years. Wright: "The amount of goals he scored, and where he did it. I've grown to love Al but I did used to hate him - because I was so jealous!"Luis Suarez Luis Suarez took just 15 games to reach 20 goals during the 2013-14 season - equalling Andy Cole's record from 1993-94Premier League appearances: 110Goals: 69Goals per game ratio: 0.
Cagliari go to this game as firm favorites and their advantage will be boosted by playing at home too. They have a great goal scoring record in recent matches, but not defensive. They have scored at least two in four of their last five home matches, while they have managed just one clean sheet in the last five matches. Sampdoria on their part, have scored in seven of the last 10 matches and conceded two or more in five of their last six away matches. Here a good bet can be on Cagliari winning 2-1.
The support we had at Old Trafford was part of the magic of the day. They were so loud, it felt like we were back at Elland Road and it helped us show we meant business and were there for a reason, not just to play for pride and avoid a heavy defeat. It had been the same when I had spoken to our fans beforehand too - they made it clear about the rivalry between the two clubs and how much it would mean to them if we won.
A team in much worse form is Stade de Reims. David Guion's men enjoyed a blistering start to the campaign with wins over PSG and Lille making Ligue 1 fans take notice but they have hit a bit of a slump in recent weeks with zero wins in their last four league matches. They did managed to get a 2-1 win over third-tier Bourg-en-Bresse in the cup but apart from that it has been rather disappointing.
I was convinced Newcastle United would be relegated given the ill-feeling surrounding Steve Bruce's appointment and the apparent miracle performed by Rafael Benitez. Maybe not such a Benitez miracle after all as sound management by Bruce put them in a similar 13th placing without the over-blown reverence reserved for Benitez. Safe and sound. Any chance of a takeover?Pre-season prediction: 20thWhat I said in August: "When will the torture end for Newcastle supporters? It may get worse before it gets better.
Leicester are currently fourth in the Premier League, ahead of Manchester United on goal difference, as they prepare for Sunday's trip to Tottenham. Asked about his players being linked with other clubs, Rodgers said: "I'm quite relaxed on it. I'm not worried at all. We've got a fantastic squad, a squad we want to keep together. There's no intention to sell Ben Chilwell and there's absolutely no need to sell.
Tianjin, Chongqing, Chengdu, Xi'an, Dalian, Qingdao, Xiamen and Suzhou will be the other host cities for the 18th edition of the continent's premier competition that will be held in June and July, 2023. The AFC Asian Cup is our flagship competition for national teams, and I am sure that the Chinese FA and the selected host cities will deliver a tournament which is in keeping with the event's world-class status," AFC president Sheikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa said in a statement.
A little more on Pochettino's departure, which took many people by surprise, except for Harry Redknapp, it would seem. Redknapp said on BBC Radio 5 Live: "I love Mauricio Pochettino, but he has been averaging a point a game over the last 25 games. The Tottenham board are ruthless businessmen, they will have realised that at this rate they might not make the top four.

I would like him to play there [Atletico], Simeone wants him now but the head coach of Paris St-Germain says he needs him to help them compete in the Champions League," Cavani's father Luis told Spanish television programme El Chiringuito. I think there is a strong chance he will go to Atletico. There is also the option to join the club in June. There are lots of other clubs interested but when you give your word to a team, you respect it.
AC Milan face Juventus on Thursday at the San Siro in the second semi-final. Inter came from 2-0 down to beat rivals AC at the weekend and go top of the table but they could not find a late rally on this occasion. Ashley Young, Alexis Sanchez and Christian Eriksen were all absent from the starting line-up and Dries Mertens and Piotr Zielinski both went close for Napoli in the first half. Away fans from the Naples region were banned from this match - a consequence of an incident in December 2018, when an Inter fan died of his injuries after being knocked down by a van amid violence before a match between the sides.
But they began the 2020s playing catch-up, not just to runaway leaders Liverpool, but also to Leicester, who remain a point clear of them in second place. Guardiola's attempts to make up ground, and perhaps improve a porous defence before their Champions League campaign resumes next month, saw him change his formation as well as his personnel at the end of a frenetic festive period. Rodri, usually a holding midfielder, dropped into a three-man central defence, with Gundogan and Kevin de Bruyne operating as a dual midfield pivot in front of them.
Whilst they remain 7th heading into this Sunday morning's encounter against Eibar, Pepe Bordalas' men are just two points shy of the Champions League spots and could easily be occupying a top four position over the Christmas period with winnable fixtures against Valladolid and Villarreal following this Matchday 16 contest at Ipurua.

Eintracht Frankfurt have a decent home record in the league and scoring has been no problem for them with at least 2 goals in 11 of the last 13 games. But in the 9 games at home they have also already conceded 14 goals.
Newcastle Jets and Western United will face each other in the upcoming match in the A League. Newcastle Jets this season have the following results: 2W, 3D and 9L. Meanwhile Western United have 6W, 2D and 7L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
In the previous round, Freiburg spent a brave 90 minutes when holding Frankfurt with the score 3-3 right on the opponent's field. However, it must be admitted that Freiburg has not been able to return to its best form after having gone through the first leg quite successfully. In more detail, in the last 7 rounds, they only brought about 1 victory.
Chelsea, who beat Bayern on penalties in the 2012 final in Munich, want to avoid being caught in the sort of whirlwind that hit London rivals Spurs earlier this season when they suffered a 7-2 home loss and then lost 3-1 away in the group stage. Definitively," Lampard told a news conference on Monday when asked if there were lessons for Chelsea from Tottenham's drubbing by Bayern -- the biggest margin of defeat for an English team at home in any European competition.
