Real Madrid replaced Barca at the top of the table when they beat the defending champions 2-0 at the Bernabeu on 1 March. But Barca regained top spot on 7 March as Messi's late penalty - his 19th league goal of the season - gave them a 1-0 home win over Real Sociedad, and Real lost 2-1 at Real Betis the next day to surrender the initiative in the title race. Barca are two points clear with 11 rounds left in La Liga, which resumed with Sevilla's derby win over Betis on Thursday.
Did Solskjaer enjoy the win more, or the head-pat? And aren’t United weird? Wins over Chelsea, Leicester, Spurs, and the only team to take a point off Liverpool; losses to Newcastle, West Ham, Bournemouth, and strange draws all over the place. A midfield obviously improved by the return of Scott McTominay: is he actually good? Like, properly good? Is Fred? The Warm-Up doesn’t know the answer to these questions, but the three points mean we probably get a little longer to find out if Solskjaer does.
An uncompleted competition is unsatisfactory for everybody, players as well as supporters,” Feyenoord technical director Mark Koevermans said. Belgium had earlier on Thursday called time on their season, leaving Club Bruges to be crowned champions. Last week 17 of the country’s 24 first and second division clubs – many facing potential financial ruin -- wrote to the professional league authorities calling for the rest of the season to be cancelled.

Modern safe standing, using 'rail seating', operates successfully across Europe. It is now being introduced at Wolves to tackle persistent standing by some fans. Unlike the old football terraces, supporters would be allocated a designated area to stand. What do the fans say?Supporters are generally in favour of introducing safe standing in Premier League and Championship grounds, with 94% of 33,000 who responded to an EFL survey last year saying they should be allowed to choose whether they want to stand or sit at games.

This is going to be a first game for Carlo Ancelotti on Everton bench and I expect victory for sure and that is because Everton show a lot of improvement in last couple of rounds cause they played versus Chelsea arsenal and united and managed to get undefeated in that 3 games and even got a victory versus Chelsea so I surely expect now from them to beat the Burnley at Goodison and a so I expect from Everton to score at least 2 goals and that Will be enough for this bet if they do manage to keep their net intact
From the report: "Senior players believe the team has regressed under Mourinho and his long-ball tactics are holding them back. There are also fears club-record buy Tanguy Ndombele may have been ‘lost’ after boss Mourinho publicly criticised the £65m midfielder’s readiness to play. Tottenham are winless in four Premier League games – and nine points adrift of the top four – ahead of their match with Norwich City on Wednesday night.
The 33-year-old Spanish international defender made a calamitous backpass within the first two minutes, allowing Willian Jose to calmly round keeper Thibaut Courtois and pass the ball into the empty net to put the visitors ahead and stun the Bernabeu into silence. Real, however, were back on level terms thanks to Karim Benzema after 37 minutes before running out winners with second-half goals from Federico Valverde and Luka Modric.
The juxtaposition of model is clear. Swedish football operates a '51% rule', meaning club members must always have a decisive stake and private actors cannot become majority owners of football teams. As such, 1979 European Cup finalists Malmo are limited in how much they can take advantage of the vast sums of money flowing into modern football from investors. FC Copenhagen by contrast are more like a traditional business, owned by the Parken Sport and Entertainment group and founded in 1992 before winning their first league title just a year later.
Napoli have failed to win in eight matches in all competitions. Meanwhile, the visitors have struggled on the road in the league this term. Napoli are winless in their last four Serie A away games (D3 L1). They last had a longer run without a win on the road in April 2010 under Walter Mazzarri (5). Overall this season the visitors have won two of their last seven trips in Serie A. That has us backing Udinese Double Chance here.
Vissel Kobe's Iniesta explained: "It's been three or so months since everything started and the feeling here is of control. People are going out on the streets. What they did very well was closing the schools and events with lots of people from the first minute. All that minimised the consequences. Paper Round’s views: As Iniesta says, Japan approached the outbreak with more speed than other countries who are now suffering more severely.
Elsewhere, Bayer Leverkusen can still overtake Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid - who lost to Juventus - thanks to a 2-0 win over Lokomotiv Moscow who head out of the competition.

WEDNESDAY'S BIG STORIES It's Bayern's to lose We've got it all wrong. As Liverpool sacrifice it all for a title no one else wants, Manchester City pretend they never liked Europe anyway, Juventus prepare to be barred from leaving the country, Real Madrid and Barcelona squabble over being unavoidably average, and PSG continue to squander money on players who would rather be anywhere else… an obvious contender for the Champions League has been overlooked.
England lost on penalties to eventual winners Germany in the semi-final but this was an unforgettable night and performance. Paul Ince attempts to block a shot by Jordi CruyffGermany 1-5 England - Munich (1 September 2001)England arrived as underdogs for this World Cup qualifier only to rip the odds and logic to shreds. Carsten Jancker gave Germany an early lead but England, led by the devastating Michael Owen hit back.
He turned down a move to English League One side Oxford United in January and has found himself with fewer options than he might have expected. There were a few options before and I was just sitting tight. Now they are, not so much off the table, but have maybe just dropped back a wee bit because budgets are getting reassessed. Hopefully I will have options, but time will tell. There is no point getting hung up on it, there are far more important things going on in the world and I am fortunate I have a good family around me.

Brighton & Hove Albion v Aston Villa *Brighton have won only one of their last seven league matches (D3 L3). Villa have beaten Brighton twice this season -- at home in the Premier League and at the Amex in the League Cup. Villa have scored four goals in or after the 90th minute -- more than any other side in the league this season.
Peterborough have scored in all of their home games this season and a majority of the host’s wins this season have been obtained with a margin of two goals or more (6 wins), while a majority of Bolton’s defeats have been by two goals or more (7 defeats) so far this season, which adds weight to our prediction for a 3-0 Peterborough victory on Saturday.
We’re confident that Benfica will win on Friday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-1. The visitors are the form favourites and performed exceptionally on the road so far this season, while Sporting have already lost 3 of their 7 home games in the league. Benfica have had the better of their local rivals in recent seasons and we see nothing that suggests that trend will change on Friday.

Sivasspor are in very impressive form, they have 6 victories and 1 loss in their last 7 matches. When playing at their home, Sivasspor have 5 consecutive victories vs Kasimpasa, Konyaspor, Antalyaspor, Ankaragücü and Trabzonspor. These are quite average opponents in the Turkish Super Lig, but in this match, Sivasspor will face Fenerbahce, a very strong opponent.
If you want to do that with Alisson, who is very good at it, then that is fine. But Alisson was injured and Adrian is not comfortable playing that way, so why not just tell him to stick it in the stands instead?Adrian is 33 so you are not going to change him, either. He is not going to suddenly become really good with the ball at his feet, and he is always going to have a mistake in him. Liverpool gave Atletico a new lease of life Liverpool led 2-1 on aggregate for only 167 second before Marcos Llorente pulled a goal backUnfortunately for Liverpool, Adrian's error was something they never recovered from.
It is a positive first step that the President of UEFA Ceferin has accepted the prime minister's invitation and will visit Athens in the coming period," government spokesman Stelios Petsas said. The amendment passed by parliament was met with protests and rejected by opposition lawmakers and some ruling party members, prompting Mitsotakis to expel from his party European Parliament deputy Theodoros Zagorakis, a former captain of Greece's national team.
Here, for example, is what 'The Special One' said about contract revel Christian Eriksen just last month. He said: "I don't like to keep players that don't want to stay at the club. I think it is always really difficult. I am not thinking about the economical perspective, I mean from a motivational point of view.
Such a decision would be hugely controversial and have financial, logistic and football implications which are too great to organise yet. Some Premier League teams were reportedly keen to cancel the whole season, and you can make an educated guess about who would benefit the most from such a decision.
The deputy chairman Douglas Park will chair the board during the interim period and a new permanent chairman will be elected by the board at the next board meeting and will be announced immediately thereafter. I considered the possibility of extending my time as chairman until the coronavirus crisis is over but that is not practically possible. After I returned to South Africa last week from the board meeting, I was mandated by the South African authorities to go into self-isolation for 14 days - which I am presently undergoing.
Ajax have scored four goals in each of their last five matches across all competitions and the only reason we aren’t backing them to do so again on Sunday is that Twente have only conceded more than three goals in one match this season and that arrived away from home against Feyenoord.
Now we’re fairly confident that most people are able to translate what Williams was saying to the fans in the video above but we’re not going to give any ‘sorry for the language used’ type of warning. Because if you go to a game and you racially abuse a player then f*** you. There is no area of life where that is acceptable, it is as simple as that.
Equally so, Real Madrid’s 1-0 win over their city rivals on Saturday suggested that the gulf Simeone bridged has started to open up again. While Karim Benzema’s second-half strike put Zinedine Zidane’s side six points clear at the top of La Liga, extending a run which has seen Los Blancos lose just once in the league this season, the defeat kept Atleti out of the top four.
Twente and AZ Alkmaar will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eredivisie. Twente this season have the following results: 6W, 6D and 10L. Meanwhile AZ Alkmaar have 15W, 2D and 4L.

In the four seasons we've had that we've managed to stay in the Premier League. Howe told reporters. It's just we've managed to keep our heads above the line in all of those seasons. So in other people's eyes. The reality is it's always been tight and we've just managed to get a big result when we needed it.
After years of pushing, this could be the year which sees the Bees making another serious promotion push. Meanwhile, West Brom are heading back towards the Premier League on current form, unless they are about to see a Festive collapse spurred on by this test.
It's not fair to judge people on the colour of their skin. We're here to play football and not get verbally abused. Government must work with FA on racism - Elliott'Cyrille became like a family member'During his formative years, Gibbs-White came to the attention of former England striker Cyrille Regis. Regis, a football icon who fought prejudice during three decades as a player, was an agent at the time and had been alerted to Gibbs-White's talents by the player's father, who had become a good friend.
The last five meetings between these two clubs have failed to see both teams score, with under 2.5 goals being produced on each occasion. Gil Vicente are the form favourites heading into this weekends’ clash and sit 3pts and four places above Belenenses in the Primeira Liga table. Belenenses have lost 4 of their 8 away games in the league so far this season and average just 1.00 points per away game which is below the league average of 1.18, while Gil Vicente average 1.75 points per home game.
He was guaranteed a spot in the 18-player squad mind - were that guarantee taken away, would he have signed for City? Perhaps not. Perhaps he would take his talents to a side not top of the table, or to a side where he was guaranteed a start.
