The new owners immediately strengthened the squad, signing Brazilian forward Pedro, Chilean midfielder Erick Pulgar, Liverpool teenager Bobby Duncan plus veteran French winger Franck Ribery and managed to hold onto forward Federico Chiesa. The Della Valle family had re-established the club after it was declared bankrupt in 2002 but fans felt it had begun to stagnate after a series of top-half finishes.
The last match today in Denmark after the teams will split in two groups and in this match Aalborg is against Aarhus. Aalborg is in 6th place with 38 points and they have 3 points more Randers that is in 7th place and Aalborg needs a draw here at least so they can go in Championship group.
Barnett responded by calling Zidane a "disgrace" but, speaking on Monday after Real's second La Liga title since Bale moved there in 2013, he struck a more conciliatory tone. Gareth is not looking to outlast Zinedine Zidane. Mr Zidane has been very successful," Barnett said. There's no hatred. Mr Zidane just does not want to play him. Gareth trains every day and he trains well. No loan move with Euros in mind Gareth Bale appeared to goad the Spanish media while on Real Madrid's bench for July's La Liga match at GranadaBale is still Real Madrid's highest-paid player with his current contract, which does not expire until 2022, thought to be worth around £600,000 per week.
Sevilla will want to avoid a surprise defeat in the Copa del Rey. They are a good cup side and it takes the very best in Spain to win a home tie against them in this competition. Mirandes are draw experts but have struggled to get past lower-tier sides. They did beat Celta Vigo in the last round but they are in the La Liga relegation zone at present. Go for Seville to win this game.
This is a clash between two teams who featured in the play-offs last season and NorthEast United will feel more content with their start to the season having remained unbeaten in their opening four games under new coach Robert Jarni. Mumbai City need to bounce back from consecutive 4-2 defeats which will have rocked their confidence somewhat but they do have belief in their ability to pick up results away from home. Expect Mumbai to dig in and try to be hard to break down and in doing so they might be able to come away with a point from a tight encounter.
It was always a strong fight, but fair. They always respected each other massively at the track because they knew how good the other was. There was nothing, no pushing or just breaking the front wing, nothing. There was just two gladiators fighting bravely at the race track. So I have no bad memories about that.
They dominated in the middle, too, even after James Ward-Prowse's move to right-back following Cedric Soares' first-half withdrawal due to injury. And after Redmond opened the scoring with a brilliant finish, they rarely looked back, with Armstrong testing Palace keeper Vicente Guaita several times before eventually beating him early in the second half.
Smaller, home-made banners declaring "Uefa mafia" and "Uefa cartel" were spotted. The West Ham fans tried to get a reaction, with "1-0 to the cheating club". City's going down with a billion in the bank," the hosts responded. It was amusing knockabout stuff on a night when the result was never in doubt. Yet there is strength of feeling amongst Blues supporters. There is a long-standing belief that Europe's elite want to exclude City from their club.
For some clubs it would not be a problem to suspend and reschedule, for some others it would. Last Sunday's Inter against Sampdoria game was suspended and if Antonio Conte's men are to go all the way to the Coppa Italia and Europa League finals, it can only be made up for on 20 May, four days before the final Serie A game of the season. The alternative of postponing their Coppa Italia semi-final second leg against Napoli would lead to the final being rescheduled too.
In football you have to be objective. QUAGLIARELLA'S UNHAPPY SEASON CONTINUES After finishing as Serie A's leading scorer last season at the age of 36, Sampdoria striker Fabio Quagliarella has lost his scoring touch. He has netted only three league goals this season and missed a penalty in Sunday's 1-0 home defeat by Parma.
That's the reality of Messi. Everyone knows he's a quiet guy. He's very normal in the dressing room and on the field. Guardiola is all about evolution' Pep Guardiola signed Villa in 2010 and Barca won La Liga and the Champions League in the forward's first seasonVilla scored 33 goals in 77 La Liga appearances for Barca between 2010 and 2013, with two of his three seasons at the Nou Camp spent under Guardiola's management.
Liverpool were on the brink of winning their first Premier League title when the season was suspended because of the coronavirus on March 13. While there have been concerns about whether the season could be cancelled, Klopp says it would be “embarrassing” to suggest he has any problems right now as he paid tribute to frontline NHS workers.
Leeds United moved back to within four points of Championship leaders West Bromwich Albion as Mateusz Klich's strike earned victory over lowly Middlesbrough at the Riverside. Klich guided a fine shot in off the far post in first-half injury time moments after Pablo Hernandez's low effort came back off the upright. Boro, who have now lost three in a row and are winless in nine league games since beating Preston North End on New Year's Day, showed decent resolve and had their moments, the best of which saw Marcus Tavernier's curled shot hit the top of the bar after the break.
There, the ball clipped the unwitting Fabinho, and pitched goalwards, Saul slotting home from close range. Atletico Madrid's Spanish midfielder Saul Niguez (R) celebrates after scoring the opening goal during the UEFA Champions League, round of 16, first leg football match between Club Atletico de Madrid and Liverpool FC at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium in MGetty Images Gradually, Liverpool asserted themselves, but despite enjoying the larger share of possession, they could create any scoring opportunities.

We will have fresh legs. What we need is support. Liverpool are 13 points clear of second-placed Leicester and also have a game in hand on the Foxes'Henderson is unbelievably important to Liverpool'One of Klopp's players who has excelled during the festive period is captain Jordan Henderson, who was superb against Sheffield United alongside Georginio Wijnaldum and James Milner in midfield. When asked about the England international, Klopp was effusive, saying: "Yes he is exceptional and outstanding.
He's already the best chess player in the world. Now Magnus Carlsen is using his mental fortitude to succeed in another game of strategy - fantasy football. Norway's world chess champion moved top of the leaderboard in Fantasy Premier League on Sunday - the Premier League's official fantasy football game played by more than seven million people. Carlsen, 29, has stormed to the top with a squad including Liverpool's Sadio Mane, Leicester striker Jamie Vardy and, of course, everyone's favourite bargain , Sheffield United's John Lundstram - the top scoring defender in the game.

There are 7,697 chartered managers. Comments on Twitter under a link posted by the BBC to their website story were largely hostile. This is ridiculous - as a female football fan, this kind of presumption that women either don't like football or would want others to stop talking about something we're not interested in is ridiculous," commented @LaurenD1905.
The England boss added that he never truly realised the effect Old Trafford had on people until he visited the ground as an opponent during his eight-year career at Everton. It was just home. You went there, played football, then came home. My first game with Everton. You get there and all the players are looking up and you realise the effect Old Trafford has, the theatre and history of the club. We are going to have to handle that.
Chelmsford and Eastbourne Boro will face each other in the upcoming match in the National League South. Chelmsford this season have the following results: 9W, 8D and 8L. Meanwhile Eastbourne Boro have 7W, 9D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Southampton levelled five minutes later as Armstrong's curling left-footed shot went in after a deflection off Maddison giving Kasper Schmeichel no chance in goal. Southampton were then given a second-half penalty when Caglar Soyuncu brought down Shane Long in the box, but VAR deemed that he was marginally offside in the build-up and also rescinded the yellow card issued to the Leicester defender.
Losing the first leg wasn't part of the plan, but Monday's hosts probably won't be too downbeat ahead of the return leg. After all, they only lost by a single goal, while they produced moments of promise, moments that will leave them feeling confident ahead of a game on their own patch.
Gacinovic accepts Nubel apology after horror challenge Schalke goalkeeper Alexander Nubel came into the spotlight at the weekend for this horror challenge on Frankfurt midfielder Mijat Gacinovic, who has subsequently accepted his opponent's apology in an Instagram post showing his war wounds. Ronaldo creates history at Juve Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice in Juventus' 3-1 win over Udinese on Sunday, and became the first man to reach double figures in one of Europe's top five leagues in 15 straight seasons.
Safe in the knowledge there would be no coming back from this, who wrote that this kind of defeat was "the outcome of years of mismanagement at Old Trafford"?Who wrote: "It would be optimism gone mad to suggest the second leg in Paris will be anything other than a completion of formalities"?Yes, you've guessed it. And there was plenty more - all of it looking very stupid when Marcus Rashford's injury-time penalty gave United a 3-1 win in Paris and put Manchester United into the last eight on the away goals rule.
The Premier League has shown its solidarity, with players' names replaced on the back of their shirts with 'Black Lives Matter' for the first 12 matches of the restarted season, and a Black Lives Matter badge will feature on all shirts for the rest of the campaign. But while 'Black Lives Matter' has become the slogan behind the protests, Black Lives Matter also exists as a global organisation, founded in 2013, with several goals including to advocate against white supremacy and police violence towards black people.
Propelled into repeated promotion pushes by the goals of strike duo David Johnson and James Scowcroft, and with Matt Holland pulling the strings in midfield, the Suffolk club looked destined to finally clinch promotion in 1999 in particular, but missed out on an automatic spot by a point. Then, in the play-off semi-final, they went out on the away goals rule after a 4-4 aggregate draw with Bolton, despite winning a dramatic second leg 4-3 after extra time at Portman Road.
In fact, Lukaku has had an impressive scoring record throughout his career which began when he made his debut for Anderlecht at the age of 16. He scored 42 goals in 96 appearances for United, 87 goals in 166 matches for Everton and 41 in 98 games for Anderlecht while his tally for Belgium is an impressive 52 in 84 games.

We think there should be goals in this game with neither side really content to sit back and defend and we've predicted that the teams will beat the 2.5 goal line at 1/2 odds. There should be plenty of chances at either end as both teams look to gain the advantage heading into the final matchweek and the goal line looks to be under serious threat.
Zidane courts Mbappe ahead of PSG meeting Zinedine Zidane has re-stoked rumours Real Madrid will make a move for Kylian Mbappe ahead of Paris Saint Germain's trip to the Bernabeu in the Champions League. The La Liga side have long been linked with a move for the France World Cup-winner, and the manager was tickled into declaring his on-going affection for the player by reporters in the build-up to Tuesday's game.
Had his early volley, which sailed over the crossbar, found the net or Trezeguet's strike sneaked in, it may have been a different story but Villa have now won just one of their past 43 meetings against the Red Devils. United goalkeeper David de Gea became United's leading appearance maker from overseas with 399 games, surpassing the legendary Peter Schmeichel, but the Spaniard was called into action just once, a comfortable save from John McGinn's long range drive.
You can't choose a classic Premier League game without thinking of Kevin Keegan's 'entertainers' from the 1990s. Former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer proved no different as he picked three classic Premier League games for Match of Their Day. Watch the full programme again on BBC iPlayerThe former England captain remains the Premier League's all-time leading scorer with 260 goals, winning the top-flight title with Blackburn in 1995 and going on to join the Magpies for a then world record £15m fee.
The South American and Asian World Cup qualifiers which were due to be played have already been postponed. However, European body UEFA has not yet called off the Euro 2020 playoff matches which involve a total of 16 teams. Several of the teams involved in those games have already asked for postponements and the matches would be not be viable without club co-operation.
Other suspects also ruled out: Luka Modric, Jonathan Woodgate, Jack Butland, Glen Johnson, Tom Huddlestone. Further findings…Former Through the Keyhole host Loyd Grossman has been assigned to the case. Welcome to the house of Parched," said Grossman. As I enter, the first thing I notice is a big picture of animals in the wild - it indicates that this player is a buffalo with gazelle-like qualities, but most importantly likes to drink as often as a camel.
Joao Felix has claimed the Golden Boy award Joao Felix has been won the prestigious Golden Boy award, which is given to the best Under-21 player in Europe. For quotes and the full rankings, click here. Madrid optimistic on Hazard injury Eden Hazard was forced off the field with injury during Tuesday's draw with PSG but initial reports in Spain suggest that he has avoided any fractures in his ankle.
We'll endeavour to. The squad is in a really good place. We don't want to stockpile. The league's top scorer Jamie Vardy missed Wednesday's 3-0 league victory at Newcastle United with a calf problem. He's coming along very well. He's not available for the game (on Saturday) but he'll be back training on Sunday," Rodgers said.
Les Olympiens' away form has been slightly above average in recent weeks but they have struggled in the cauldrons of the league's bigger teams. Despite confident performances against Toulouse (2-0) and Angers (2-0), they really looked like a poor team as they were thrashed 4-0 in Paris. Obviously PSG are a class side but Villas-Boas' men should have really threatened more in Le Classique given their form. They also lost 2-1 away to a very poor Monaco side which makes us doubt their chances going into this one.
Undoubtedly, The Citizens’ biggest weakness this season is in the defensive areas of the pitch. They have conceded an average of 1.14 goals per game in the league, and away from home they have managed just two clean sheets in seven attempts. Of course, they have found the net in all seven of these games as well, treating the neutrals to some enthralling and entertaining matches.
Riyad Mahrez became the fifth player to have played for Leicester in the Premier League and then score against the Foxes in the competition, after Julian Joachim, Emile Heskey, Chris Wood and N'Golo Kante. Mahrez had 10 shots in this match, the most by a player in a single Premier League game since Andre Schurrle against Burnley in August 2018 (11). His leveller for Manchester City was the 500th Premier League goal scored this season.
