Decisions like that are crucial," added Lampard. That's a major part of what VAR was brought in for: a second viewing, different angles. I don't get why they aren't looking at the monitor. It should be used. VAR also ruled out two Chelsea goals from Kurt Zouma and Olivier Giroud in a frustrating night for Lampard's side, who went a fourth straight league match without victory.

With qualification games included, Wolves were bested just once in the 11 Europa League fixtures they've contested since mid-July, and Wanderers will expect to enhance that fine record even further this week.
In the 'Correct Score' market, a 3-2 win for the visitors is worth a small bet at a big price. For all Barton's men have defended very poorly, they have offered lots more than Rochdale going forward. They'll no doubt struggle to keep things tight again, but the visitors can outscore a home side that conceded three goals when last in action at this venue.
Cameroon forward Toko-Ekambi, on loan from Villarreal, added to Maxwel Cornet and Moussa Dembele's earlier goals to put OL on 32 points from 21 matches. Toko-Ekambi came on for Martin Terrier in the first half after his team mate collapsed on the pitch before being carried off on a stretcher to a standing ovation.

The ground had been blitzed and they had an overdraft at the bank. What is more I had no experience as a manager and I felt they were taking a great risk in appointing me.
It has been many years since the sort of emotion on show was commonplace on the blue side of Merseyside and it all stemmed from having one of their own in charge. But not just any old ex-player, one who always gave his all for the cause, Duncan Ferguson – and how the fans and the players responded. Everton made more tackles in the match than they had managed in any other league game in the past 11 years and the fans loved it, just as they did in the glory years of the 1980s under another beloved former player, Howard Kendall.

But the key stat ahead of Saturday's game though is Eibar's away form – Los Armeros have won just one from seven on their travels this season and just three from their last 27 La Liga outings on the road. With such a dismal away record and obvious problems at the back, there's nothing to recommend Eibar this weekend and we're backing Sociedad to return to winning ways.
That came after an owner dispute, and subsequent court case, rather than financial mismanagement specifically. Palios said: "Having been an insolvency practitioner, you could use the administration process, which was brought in to help businesses survive, in a slightly different way. If coronavirus tips clubs over the edge, there's an argument that this isn't because of financial mismanagement, it's because of circumstances, and therefore you could go into administration to get the benefits of protection but not take the sporting sanctions.
But Ukraine are not allowed to be in a group with Russia for political reasons (although they could meet in the knockouts) so it means there was only one group they could go in, leaving Belgium in the other. And with the four play-off winners needing to go in specific groups (even though two of them may be swapped around) it means there are only two possible groups that Wales and Finland - also bottom seeds as the two teams to qualify with the fewest points - can be placed in.
Their Under-21 side will also play in the Leasing. Trophy knockout stage, having won each group game, so Solskjaer has selected several of those players, along with some fit-again fringe players. It's common sense," said Solskjaer. We have done great to qualify after four games, so it gives us an opportunity to give game time to the experienced lads who need it: Axel [Tuanzebe], Luke [Shaw] and Jesse [Lingard].
The task now is to build on this, and not return to their drawing ways, but with Arsenal's attacking players starting to find their form again, and Dani Ceballos back in the team pulling the strings, a late push for the top four is not out of the question.

We're not in quarantine, but because of the infection in the men's team we are not training until Wednesday," Norway captain Mjelde told Reuters. Forward Therese Sessy Asland took to social media to express her surprise that Sweden, where she is back training with her club Kristianstad, has not adopted the same measures as Norway and Denmark.
Orsha played two nil draws in a row including a 0-0 draw at home with Smorgon but that is a decent defensive side, this while on opening round they looked quite strong for my liking coming from 2-1 behind in the second half to win 3-2 at home against a rather decent Lida side their only win so far while in round 2 they lost 2-1 away from home at an average at best FC Slonim side, but in this game their opponent is 2nd from bottom Mikashevichi side which lost all 4 games played by them so far this season.
Leipzig was even league leader in Bundesliga this season, now they are 3rd but just one point behind 2nd placed Dortmund and only 5 points behind the league leaders from Bayern Munchen, this is for sure the strongest squad of players they have ever had and their Champions League performance is indeed impressive winning their group stage and defeating in the latter stage Tottenham after a 1-0 win on the road and a 3-0 win at home despite not really needing the win.
A man of his word or a bit of a sore loser? Cesc Fabregas has revealed he bought Willy Caballero a Range Rover when they played together at Chelsea. Argentine goalkeeper was hoping for.

Video - The Debate: Who is the PL’s most underrated player?15:36 Regarding a date when games could restart, the Premier League say they are still committed to finishing the season, with the previous return date of April 30 now put off once more. The Premier League is working closely with the whole of professional football in this country, as well as with the government, public agencies and other relevant stakeholders to ensure the game achieves a collaborative solution.
Defensively they have been solid. They just haven't had that break or that extra bit of luck," she said. I'm hoping to bring some of my experience and leadership qualities to the team to help them get that first three points, which I think is long overdue. Just from a few days here I can see Vicky has a great relationship with the whole squad and that's really important. She is a manager I want to play for.
I think the club want players who fit their image of what a Manchester United player should be - quick, good on the ball, prepared to take risks. It is taking time, that's for sure. George: What were the first years under Sir Alex Ferguson like? Were fans and pundits as critical of United then as they are now? If not, why?It is hard to compare. Sadly, I am old enough to remember it. There was definite criticism - the team were booed off at times, crowds went down and there was suspicion Ferguson wasn't going to pull the situation round.
Barks was a strong, inspirational leader to our under-18s and a much-loved colleague. We'll be offering help and support to those at the club affected by the tragic news - particularly our young players, and ask that Chris' family get some privacy at this challenging time. A number of Barker's former teammates were also quick to express their grief and pay tribute to his career within football and beyond.
This was a great example of how someone deals with the pressure of that sort of game - at half-time and how he would speak to the players. What I saw was someone with immense experience, who spoke in a very calm way and dealt with the facts. He gave information but not too much and in a way that would help that players and give them confidence. The players went out in the second half, calm and controlled, and played a very good game and went on to win the final.
Taipei Bear started the season with a 2-2 draw at home with Healing which is quite a decent side as I saw them play and win last round 2-1 at home with New Taipei totally dominating the game. And it came as a big surprise last round that they won away from home at Taicheng being priced above 10.00 to do so with the home win priced around 1.10 they scored in the first half and kept the clean sheet till the end without much of a sweat, so of course I am not only going to bet on them to win this game but to win by 2 goals difference or more even at higher odds.
Pogba has been subjected to racial abuse on Twitter this past year, while a number of footballers – including team-mate Fred and Everton’s Moise Kean – have been the target of abuse in stadiums.

When the coronavirus pandemic and confinement hit us so severely in Spain, there was great concern. For a while there was much speculation that the league would be terminated and we were pessimistic, but little by little the population has been recovering and in the end the decision was made to restart La Liga. Training in very small groups was very strange at the beginning. But gradually we have been getting to grips with it and at the beginning of last week we all trained together, albeit with strict controls.
Ask someone to think of a Bulgarian football club and the names that come to mind might be European regulars CSKA Sofia or Ludogorets Razgrad. Those two teams have won eight of the country's past 11 domestic titles, but a group of Britons are aiming to break that dominance by turning around the fortunes of another Bulgarian side - and transforming them into the biggest club in the country. OFC Pirin Blagoevgrad, the hometown team of former Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur striker Dimitar Berbatov, want to be on an equal footing to CSKA and Ludogorets.
Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. This is a my second choice from Bulgaria and that's it a derby game between Botev and Lokomotiv from Plovdiv. I don't know too much about this game and teams but I think Lokomotiv must to take this game and they will get a second place in the elite league Bulgaria. They have now three points less from Levski. Botev is not bad team and they not lose last ten games. Maybe is time for them to lose some points and now it is good time for that. I will take a risk with win for Loko.
There is only so much pressure your defence can take when you are not keeping possession, and the ball is always coming straight back at them. Media playback is not supported on this device Spurs manager Jose Mourinho praised his side's 2-1 victory over 'special opponent' Wolves. What Spurs need is balanceI don't think Mourinho knows his first-choice midfield pairing yet, because he has tried several different combinations already.
Would the team miss him if he was sold?I can't really explain it, no. The expectation was United would trigger the option on his contract and then sell. I am still surprised they didn't. Anything else? Manchester United have celebrated little success since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013Anonymous: How can such a globally successful football club continue to decline? Surely the sponsors will leave.
Taliya are currently on the 9th place with 21 points. It seems they will play only for pride in the next period. Last weekend they beat Jableh with 1:0. The victory was obtain away from home thanks to the goal scored by Mohamed Al Zeno in the 31st minute.
Duel between very similar rivals by power, that are not having much differences in the point score and position at the league table. They are going to face each other after having losing their recent games and will try avoiding another defeat here.
But if it was always that easy for you to get out the best player of the opponent then there is something wrong with the game. If the player does nothing wrong but it’s still possible – wow! "Everyone runs against his elbow or whatever – that should not happen. We expect a really ‘experienced’ performance from Atletico, let me say that.
Gabriel Jesus: If you've been brought into the team to replace Sergio Aguero, while the Argentine is sitting on the bench waiting to be called upon at a moment's notice, scoring goals must be a minimum requirement. It's as well Gabriel Jesus has the ability to do just that. Two goals by the Brazil international, against a rejuvenated Everton, came in very handy for Manchester City and will not do Jesus' credentials any harm either.
These guys had a major part to play in that. And I wish, for some reason, [Leicester City midfielder] Hamza Choudhury might hear me talking and make the decision to play for Grenada to make the Cinderella story continue. He's eligible to represent us. Joseph watches as many Shrewsbury games as he can access back home in Grenada, and the presence of three of the nation's star players has made the Shropshire side a good-news story in the local media.
Brighton, however, fought back with real spirit and fully deserved to pull a goal back when Leandro Trossard fired a crisp finish past Liverpool keeper Alisson from the impressive Tariq Lamptey's cross. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp stopped Brighton's progress with some astute substitutions and a corner from one, Andrew Robertson, was headed in by Salah for his 19th league goal of the season. Brighton manager Graham Potter, whose side are edging towards preserving their top-flight status, were left to rue those opening minutes while Liverpool - with 92 - close in on Manchester City's 100-point Premier League landmark.

What will happen to the new season?The majority of clubs who voted to end the season in the Championship and Leagues One and Two did so to get some clarity so they can plan and move forward for the next term. The issue, one month on, is that there is no certainty the new league campaign will start as planned on 1 August. SPFL chairman Murdoch MacLennan said last week Scottish football "must do everything humanly possible" to return by the end of July, but is that even feasible?The game in Scotland is suspended until at least 10 June, with the SFA's chief medical consultant Dr John MacLean suggesting an estimated six weeks of training is needed before players can return to action.
Our main tip though is for both teams to score and over 2.5 goals to be netted, which has been the outcome in 11 of the last 12 meetings between the sides. Valencia have scored in all of their home La Liga matches this term and have smashed in ten from their last five at Mestalla, whilst Real have bagged six in their last two away fixtures.
The Merseyside club play nine games in four competitions next month and face Aston Villa in the League Cup on Dec. Club World Cup in Qatar. Last season's Champions League winners drew at home with Napoli in their last match in Europe's elite club competition on Wednesday, but Mane said the players would not find it hard to shake off bouts of mental fatigue.
Speaking of sides who have started to come on strongly, Harrogate Town have enjoyed a much stronger run in the league in the last few months. After missing out via the play-offs last term, the visitors have been determined to challenge up at the top once again this season and the 43 points they have to their name so far this season is good enough to put them in fourth place in the league.
While teams from Asia, Africa and Mexico all relish the chance to share the stage with the big names, for the South Americans this competition has always carried some weighty prestige. I think the view on it in Europe is completely different to the view in the rest of the world. But I like pretty much to change that view a little bit in the moment, it changed for me since we are here.

It was Villa who saw the last Premier League action in a 4-0 loss at Leicester City on 9 March before the top flight was closed down after Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta tested positive for coronavirus. We have become accustomed to glimpses of the new reality in the Bundesliga and La Liga, complete with socially-distanced goal celebrations but still with the same passions on the pitch and among supporters watching from afar.
Hello everyone tipsters from this great game. Again after two months and more the big football coming from Germany Bundesliga 1. Today I can't give predictions but for tomorrow my choice is this game between Koln and Mainz. This is a very interesting game because they must to take win to save the place in this league next season. For Mainz is very important to take here three points because they are in the bottom of the league. This is a first game that's why I will take surprise for everyone and I will take bet for guest team. Enjoy for everyone.
Belshina is back to the top level, after one year in the lower league, and they were winner without any bigger issues in the recent season. Minsk could have problem to face them in Bobruisk, since host is having main lineup from that year, with couple of good arrivals. That could help the team to avoid low place on the table, and danger of relegation.
He’s great on the ball, always on the half turn and he’s the link that United really needed. They lacked that quality in midfield and since he came in he’s had that. He can feed the ball in to players, he’s got a great shot on him and he looks like a real leader as well. United had lacked that. Whether he can play in midfield in a two, that’s yet to be seen. He’s more like an Eric Cantona, a Teddy Sheringham - he can beat players as well.
