However, VAR disallowed it for a marginal offside call when the set piece was taken. Mooy capped a man-of-the-match performance by doubling Brighton's lead in the 79th minute when he latched on to Leandro Trossard's pass and took two sublime touches to set himself up for a curling shot that beat goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale.
Valverde won the final; it was the most important piece of play. It was probably going to be a goal. I told him that he did what he had to do at that moment. What's more, despite being sent off, Valverde was also chosen by Spain coach Luis Enrique as man of the match. Not everyone favoured that decision, including Spanish newspaper AS. View more on twitterHow does Valverde's skulduggery rank? Luis Suarez's last-minute handball on the line was eventually rewarded as Ghana missed the resulting spot-kick and lost on penalties in the 2010 World Cup quarter-finalsOne of the archetypes has to be Valverde's compatriot Luis Suarez handballing on the line to deny Ghana's Dominic Adiyiah and wildly celebrating the subsequent missed penalty that saw Ghana knocked out of the World Cup in 2010.
Leicester, meanwhile, have hit a rocky patch of form, and are now without a league win in four. Kelechi Iheanacho (C) vies for the ball against Norwich City's English midfielder Ben Godfrey (R) during the English Premier League football match between Norwich City and Leicester CityGetty Images TALKING POINT Can Leicester keep pace without Vardy? It’s unclear how long Jamie Vardy will be out with a calf strain, but Leicester are an inferior team without him.
Meanwhile, if Palmerias' season has been a failure, Flamengo's has been the complete opposite, with Jorge Jesus' men landing a historic league and Libertadores double. Mengao scored two last gasp goals against River Plate to crown themselves kings of South America last weekend and were also made champions of Serie A, leading to scenes that will live long in the memory of supporters.
Son Heung-min is the first Premier League player to be sent off three times in a calendar year since Lee Cattermole in 2010 (though Son's dismissal at Everton was subsequently rescinded). Tottenham have kept a Premier League-low two clean sheets this season (level with Manchester United, Norwich, Southampton). Brighton & Hove AlbionBrighton have only managed one win in their last seven league games (D2, L4).
Spurs manager Jose Mourinho said his team had been on the wrong end of similar decisions by VAR not to give red cards to opposing players in other games this season. Why they didn't say (that) when they made the mistake against Liverpool and against Watford?" former Chelsea boss Mourinho asked. I hope the noise is exactly the same.

Dortmund has a home record of 9-3-0 in the league alone this season and 3-1-0 in the Champions League, PSG and Inter lost here while Barcelona barely managed a 0-0 draw in the group stage, while they have the best home record in the league and scored 41 times in those 12 home games while conceding just 10 times. They did draw 0-0 away at Schalke earlier this season but back than Schalke was in much better shape as after the winter break they have not even managed to score a goal in 4 away games.
The hosts have won six straight home games in all competitions, so we expect them to have little trouble beating QPR. The visitors have lost over half of their trips this season, while their record against the best is hardly impressive. QPR have met all of the top six so far, losing every clash. That includes a 3-1 loss at home to the Bees.
The teenager has made only eight league appearances this season and recently recovered from a hamstring injury. I don't think his best was last season. His best is to come because he has just turned 19," Lampard said. There's real competition in wide areas and he's going to get better but he has to apply himself.
What does bode well for the hosts is that they've not conceded many goals at this venue, shipping only seven, which gives them the joint-second-best defensive record in the division. If they can spread the goals that they score out a bit more evenly, then a top-six finish is theirs.
Bayer Leverkusen can still overtake Diego Simeone's side thanks to a 2-0 win over Lokomotiv Moscow. Atalanta beat Dinamo Zagreb 2-0, keeping their hopes alive in Group C where three sides can still take 2nd spot. And finally, Galatasaray drew a dead rubber 1-1 against Club Brugges, the Belgian side equalising in the last minute and sparking huge celebrations as it confirms their passage into the Europa League.
Before embarking on her musical career, Georgia - full name Georgia Barnes - played as a left-winger for QPR and Arsenal's youth teams, although she is a Manchester United fan. She told BBC Sport: "I grew up in central London and in the flats where I lived, we had a massive courtyard where kids would play football. I guess from an early age I expressed an interest in hanging about with other people and kicking a ball around.
At the bottom of the table, it was a memorable weekend for Bristol City, as they got their first victory of the season with a 1-0 win away at Manchester United, while Liverpool's wait for that elusive first win continues after another slender 1-0 defeat to Brighton. With West Ham's match with Everton being called off due to illness in the Hammers' camp, there were only five matches this weekend but there were still plenty of standout performances to choose from.
Sociedad are in fifth place, two points behind Atletico in fourth and ahead of Getafe, who are immediately behind them in sixth, on goal difference. La Real also have a game in hand. Madrid returned to action with a 3-1 win over Eibar that didn't require them to get out of first gear. It was a lethargic performance that may have been punished by a better team.
Liverpool mayor Joe Anderson has changed his opposition to Liverpool playing Premier League games at home and the derby taking place at Everton. Anderson feared fans congregating outside Anfield and Goodison Park amid the coronavirus pandemic. The Premier League is set to resume behind closed doors on 17 June, with venues for Liverpool's games at Everton and Manchester City to be decided. We are in a better place than we were four weeks ago," said Anderson.
Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson says receiving the Premier League trophy from Reds legend Sir Kenny Dalglish "makes it even more special". There will be a special ceremony on the Kop after Liverpool's game against Chelsea at Anfield on Wednesday. It is the first time the Merseyside club have won the league since 1990, when Dalglish was their manager. He's an iconic figure at this football club, a huge person who we all love," Henderson told BBC Breakfast.

MAN OF THE MATCH - Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool) A recognition that could be shared with Virgil van Dijk, as the pair of them were responsible or the victory. Dangerous in attack and on the ball, and more than dependable at the back. Even with the presence of Dejan Lovren they were able to keep things tight at the back until Alisson introduced calamity.
I am just going to play where the best players play," Koepka, who is competing at this week's Honda Classic in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, said in a report on the Golf Channel website. I want to play against the best. I think everyone wants to play against the best. Whatever comes of it, comes of it.
The documents include details of a £150m claim related to Staveley's firm, PCP Capital Partners, and its long-running legal case against Barclays Bank PLC. The Premier League has also been informed of the potential deal and are understood to have begun the process of carrying out checks under its owners and directors test. Newcastle and Staveley would not comment when approached by BBC Sport.

Like Ronaldo, his Ballon d'Or form led to a world-record move, but Figo angered Barca fans by joining bitter rivals Real Madrid to become the original Galactico. His Real stint was equally successful and he ended his career by winning Serie A in each of his four seasons with Inter Milan. Shearer: "We were comfortable against Portugal at Euro 2000. Then he stepped on the gas and they won 3-2. He went past players like it was easy, effortless.
11 times to welcome Kauno Zalgiris before at home in the framework of the Lithuanian league, Žalgiris won all, including 8 wins with a difference of 3 or more goals. The season before kháchalgiris' guest, Kauno Zalgiris was defeated with a score of 1-4.
Brisbane Roar and Wellington Phoenix will face each other in the upcoming match in the A League. Brisbane Roar this season have the following results: 3W, 4D and 5L. Meanwhile Wellington Phoenix have 6W, 3D and 4L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
One very good reason for taking the home win in this one even with cover on the draw bet is the fact that Valencia in their last 10 home games has a record of 7-3-0, Real Madrid and Chelsea only drew here while Barcelona lost 2-0 here not so long ago, and usually Valencia is bossing their games at home while Atletico is not really the type of side to be dominating games, looking at their recent starting eleven I also see many missing players and overall a weak side compared to the previous seasons.
Norwich have shown improved home form of late but are still in deep relegation trouble. Goals are in short supply in the Premier League and there have only been three scored in their last three home league matches. Southampton had a good run of form but are in a slump at present with only four goals in their last five league matches. They need to get back into winning ways or could end up in a relegation battle. Go for under 2.5 goals to be scored in this match.
The 2-0 was bad enough but the hairdresser thing leaves me stunned. That is decadent. The distance from that to the golden steak is not far," he said. He was referring to incidents of footballers from other teams who displayed their wealth by eating gold-flaked steaks and uploading pictures on their social media accounts.

Beating Celtic at Ibrox last season was a sign they were inching closer to their great rivals. Coming to Celtic Park and doing them in their own backyard was a statement of an altogether different kind. Media playback is not supported on this device Watch: Gerrard & Rangers celebrate after first win at Celtic Park in nine years They settled quicker than Celtic. Early on, Lennon was moved to gesture at his own fractious fans to calm down.
Meanwhile, Udinese have seen both teams score in all of their last 10 home Coppa Italia ties. They haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last 15 matches in this competition, while Bologna have scored in each of their last six trips in the Coppa Italia, with their only clean sheet in that time coming against Serie B side Pisa. Given the form of both sides, we are going with BTTS here.
Norwich bolstered their attacking options at the break by sending on Josip Drmic to partner Teemo Pukki, and Drmic came close to scoring when his shot deflected off David McGoldrick and bounced off the crossbar in the 75th minute. The visitors continued to throw everything forward in an effort to find an equaliser, but United keeper Dean Henderson pulled off a string of fine saves, prompting the home fans to chant for him to be made "England's number one".
That meant our centre-backs could stay narrow and there were no gaps between them, which was important because we knew Carlos Tevez would try to feed on little balls between them from David Silva. Up the pitch, Shaun Maloney had a huge role in making the system work. He was dropping back in defensive situations to block the middle of the pitch but he also gave us an attacking outlet. He made a massive effort physically and also provided some quality going forward.
Maritimo average 1.00 points per home game which is below the league average while Boavista average 1.50 points per away game which is above the league average, and this is why we believe the visitors will claim a narrow victory on Saturday. Maritimo score an average of 1.43 goals per home game and concede an average of 1.71 goals while Boavista concede an average of 0.67 goals per away game and have only lost 17% of their away games, all of which adds weight to our prediction for a 2-1 win for Boavista.
Both teams have scored in three of the last five meetings between Moreirense and Porto and the same can be said about four of Moreirense’s last six matches in league and cup as well as in four of Porto’s last six outings, so you can see why we have backed both teams to score this Friday.

I am picking real betis to grab all the three points though in the last five meeting Mallorca has 3 wins and losses. Mallorca haven't scored. In three of their last 8 home matches. Comparing the two Real betis in their last 5 match performance is better than Mallorca. Note the last season they last net which was 2014-15 Real betis dominated home and away. Though all the loss are coming away from home, I am still picking Real Betis because their losses are from high ranking teams only. Mallorca has losses from low ranking to high ranking this shows poor performance and currently I see Real Betis winning here
With both sides not looking to take many risks we think a draw is likely and a 1-1 result looks the most likely. This result would suit Copenhagen but will leave Malmo with an anxious wait to see if Lugano are able to take anything from Dynamo Kyiv in the race for qualification from Group B.
Today will be played few games at the program of the new round at Slovenian Prva liga. Rivals at this match will be the teams of Triglav and Domzale. Both teams are neighbors at the lower part of the table - 8th and 9th positions.
Sunderland beat Bristol Rovers 3-0 in their last meeting, but we don’t expect such a big score line again, looking at Sunderland’s away record. They have scored one or none in 14 of their last 15 away matches. Sunderland have never lost to Bristol in their four previous meetings, actually they have won all. The two sides have not been scoring first half goals in their most recent matches and we can predict a continuation of this. A 1-0 win for Sunderland will be a good pick here.
