I think cancelling all games until 3 April was a mistake," Dale told BBC Sport. I think it was an error of judgment - there were a few cases in the Premier League of self-isolation. In that three to four week period we could have virtually finished our season playing Saturday to Tuesday. Instead of shutting down I would have doubled down and said let's play our way to the end of the season as soon as possible because the virus and the rate of infection across the county is not going to get better in two, three or four months.
Forrest's composure and execution were evident again when he created a gap and smashed home an angled second to end the contest. One of the major improvements in Forrest's game over the years has been that final ball and ability to finish. It gave Celtic the platform for victory tonight among a host of strong performances. We had to show character' - reaction Media playback is not supported on this device St Johnstone defenders were statuesque - Wright St Johnstone manager Tommy Wright: "We didn't start the game well - passive, defended too deep, allowed too many crosses, didn't put a tackle in, didn't win a header in our own box.
Also a mach Europa league between Ajax and Getafe is a best new chance we play this pick over 2.25 goals where we look see a minimal chance get a secure win if we see this three goals and can for this get a secure win from new great 6.50 points and can for this look a new great win to our order in full time this match now. Home team needed a minimal win from two goals if look get a open door to this next round this play what get to our pick a best chance that can get a win.
Indeed, Palmeiras were knocked out of the Copa Libertadores by Gremio at the quarter final stage and some 16 points behind Flamengo in the table, it's clear they've been well short of the required standard. Having now failed to win any of their last 4 games, losing the last 2, it's clear Palmeiras' minds are now elsewhere and all concerned just want 2019 to come to a close.
Karim Benzema scored and picked up an assist as Real Madrid recorded a comfortable win over Espanyol but were down to 10 men for the final stages after Ferland Mendy was sent off. Benzema set up French team-mate Raphael Varane for the opener and made it 2-0 with just over 10 minutes to go. The striker also wasted a huge chance in the second half, hitting it straight at keeper Diego Lopez from close range.

Her deft backheel fed strike partner Beth England for Chelsea's equaliser, after her pace and desire to get to the ball first in a chase with Grace Moloney led to the Reading keeper being sent off. Media playback is not supported on this device WSL: Chelsea 3-1 Reading highlights If that bruising clattering from Moloney was a "welcome to England" moment, Kerr's own "hello, I'm here" message was to come with that classy contribution for England's goal.
Fluminense plays home against Fortaleza with only one match to go after this round. Fluminense is mathematically saved from relegation. The home form has been good and this was the reason they managed to save the season.
Until the goal Chelsea, though looking a little off the pace after their breathless 2-2 draw with Valencia in the Champions League, had looked the more likely to score. But they huffed and puffed round the West Ham goal without producing the decisive strike. James went closest when his deflected shot hit the outside of the post in the 23rd minute.

The 33-year-old French international was close to leaving Chelsea in the winter but no move materialised, and he is free to enter negotiations with clubs outside England. However, he may choose to stay in London and the Premier League after interest from Tottenham. Paper Round’s view: Giroud’s problems at Chelsea are that he did not feature for Frank Lampard as he is well down the pecking order.
Ricardo Pereira also put in a graft worthy of praise. However, it has to be Jamie Vardy, scoring in his eighth consecutive league match - and the team’s eighth consecutive league win - to take the accolade, looking as dependable in front of the goal as Foxes fans have come to expect.

Breaking down the hosts has been an issue for many sides this season. Verona have only conceded 11 Serie A goals this season – the last newly-promoted side to concede 11 goals or fewer at this stage in the Italian top-flight were Bari in 2009/10 (10). At home they’ve let in just four goals in seven games. Only 43% have seen over 1.5 goals, with nearly half of their matches here seeing exactly one goal scored.
Accrington have a relatively poor away record, but they've certainly toughened up in recent away matches, losing just one of their last five, and even then, they lost by a single goal against one of the best teams in the division. Recent draws away against teams of Coventry and Doncaster's quality bodes well ahead of Saturday's trip to Ipswich, as does their win last time out away at Blackpool.
Heavy defeats by Barcelona, Paris St-Germain and Bayern Munich were meted out, while Rangers' reintroduction to Europe didn't as much go with a bang but a nuclear explosion. In the picturesque city of Luxembourg, they suffered what some claimed was the worst European defeat by any Scottish club - and that's some tag. Progres Niederkorn knocked Rangers out of Europe and left manager Pedro Caixinha in a hedge remonstrating with furious punters post match.

I've experienced them as a player and I hope I experience a lot more. Tonight was right up there. We've beat a real good, dangerous team. Rangers have stuttered since the winter break, falling 10 points behind Celtic in the title race, but one standout positive in 2020 has been the signing of Romanian Ianis Hagi. The Genk loanee impressed again, scoring twice with father Gheorghe in attendance, while Joe Aribo equalised with a terrific virtuoso goal.
El Entag El Harby takes on Al Ittihad in the Egyptian Premier League in the 16th round of the season. Both teams are in well-run this season, scoring a good amount of goals. The home team have scored in all their last 4 matches and both teams have scored in 3 of these matches. At the same time, the guests are probably favorites for the show and are unbeaten in 5 consecutive matches and have scored in their last 3 league matches. Both teams have scored in the past 5 appearances, all since 2017 and most recently Al Ittihad won 4-2 away. But I think this match will end in 1-1 or 2-2.

I post on social media for the fans to get to know me and a different side of football,” he said.
We have been impressed with the way Barnsley have dealt with various challenges in recent weeks, while home wins over Hull and QPR point to a side who can make the most of home advantage. While there’s always the risk that the new manager bounce will end, we think the hosts improvement is something beyond that. This fixture falls at the perfect time for Barnsley to boost their survival hopes, so a home win is our pick in this one.
Borussia Dortmund have always scored at least two goals in their six Champions League home games against French clubs. However, among the 16 teams qualified for this season's knockout phase, no team scored fewer goals in the group stages (eight). Borussia Dortmund have made it past the Champions League round of 16 only once in the last five seasons. It was in 2016-17 under current PSG manager Tuchel, eventually knocked out by Monaco in the quarter-finals.
Liverpool have won their last 18 Premier League games and will break the record for most consecutive victories in English top-flight history if they beat Watford. Sunday, March 1 Everton v Manchester United (1400) *Everton have four wins, one draw and two defeats in their last seven home Premier League games against Man Utd, including a 4-0 victory last season.
David Moyes’ chances of being re-appointed at the club have been improved after Carlo Ancelotti took over at Everton. Paper Round’s view: Moyes has shown an aptitude for reinvigorating the West Ham squad after a period of poor performance, but they are a club stuck for an identity. If they go for Moyes then they admit that they are better suited to British pragmatism while turning down the chance to embrace being a premier European side in the capital of England.

It's a cultural reference, and somebody saying to him just calm down with this showboating. He probably thought he was looking after Neymar but just let him do his thing. That is what he is about. Are Barca going to re-sign Neymar?Neymar has scored 66 goals in 76 games for the Ligue 1 club since his arrival from Barcelona for a world record fee in 2017, including 15 in 18 this season. Speculation over a return to the Nou Camp has persisted for some time and the Catalan giants are expected to try again this year.

I really do not see the hosts losing this game I mean even at the end of the normal season they stayed undefeated in their last 5 home games with a good defense and scoring at least one goal in all those home games, but problem for them this season has been that they have not really won too many games mostly drawing and also drew both home and away with AEL Larissa with 2-2 in the end but because the federation took 12 points from Xanthi they can leapfrog them in the league standings and exit the relegation zone with a win here.
Smith's team defended smartly and with resilience to earn a draw at the King Power Stadium, and while they relied on Nyland and Grealish here, Villa got the job done and for that the manager deserves huge credit. Villa may have painted a loss here as a blessing in disguise and the opportunity to focus on Premier League business, but this win saw a great old ground come alive with emotion and celebrations.
Kylian Mbappe hugged a child who ran on to the pitch and signed an autograph in the closing stages of Paris St-Germain's win over Amiens. As the game entered injury time, a young boy ran on to the pitch with stewards chasing after him. But Mbappe - who had scored two goals - walked off the Parc des Princes field with the crying boy and signed a book he produced from his coat. Neymar and Mauro Icardi also scored in the comfortable PSG win.

There were doubts about whether he would ever play again but there were also doubts if he would ever walk again if things went wrong. He was 19-years-old, was earning £120 a week and was out for year. From that to this, it's quite a journey. We're talking on the phone because that's how things are done in these strange times but even without the face to face his humour and intelligence shines through.
In the relegation pool in Greece, Asteras Tripoli will play against Atromitos. Both teams are co-leaders of this group and have been good after the break. For the recovery, they both tied and we cannot say that the level between the two is different. Especially since in a match without stake, the players should not force. The host has been positive lately and the guest has also been doing well recently - I think in the end you will see some goals against each other - so today here at the end the draw against each other - the host is strong at home and the guest is strong away - in the end it draws after 90 intensive minutes of play.
Meanwhile, although they've not been anywhere near as poor as Hearts, Hibs haven't really pulled up any trees this season either. A fifth-place finish last term left a degree of optimism coming into the season but the visitors are currently stationed outside of the top six; a position they’ll be hoping to change over the next couple of fixtures before the winter break.
Campbell says they should not be expected, as young sportsmen, to be diplomats. I feel sorry for footballers, they are young men who are very good at football. Why do we expect them to be able to handle difficult, complicated political situations? It’s ridiculous," he said. I think what happened, is some of the clubs thought, 'let’s make this about the players'.
With a distance of up to 19 points compared to the leader Shakhtar Donetsk, the opportunity to compete for the Dynamo Kiev championship in the Ukrainian league is almost zero, despite still playing less than 1 game. However, the circumstances above did not prevent the efforts of the teachers and teachers Mykhaylychenko, the proof that they still play their best in recent matches with 2 victories after the last 3 matches.
Greenwood's goal was the pick of the bunch, the 18-year-old thumping home left-footed from 25 metres after pouncing on a mistake by Newcastle's defence. Mason (Greeenwood) is a great striker of the ball. You know he is going to hit the target more times than not," Solskjaer said. The way he strikes it is nice to see and he is so unfazed by whatever happens.
Chelsea's Olivier Giroud has scored seven Premier League goals against Liverpool; only versus Aston Villa and Newcastle (both eight) has he netted more in the competition. Christian Pulisic has scored nine Premier League goals for Chelsea this season; among American players, only Clint Dempsey (17 in 2011-12 and 12 in 2010-11) has ever scored more in a campaign - his goal was the 1,000th scored in this season's Premier League.
Old hands like Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, Gerard Pique, Karim Benzema, Toni Kroos and Sergio Ramos will be on display, but a new twist to the rivalry comes with expected first El Clasico starts for two dynamic midfielders whose personal battle could help define this fixture for years to come. Here is how 22-year-old Dutchman Frenkie de Jong has joined Messi as one of the first names on the Barca teamsheet, and why 21-year-old Uruguayan Federico Valverde has subdued talk of Paul Pogba heading to Real.
After a disappointing beginning of this season, BATE has finally found a consistent shape, which has allowed them to reach the top of the table in the last round, when they have beaten the former leaders Slutsk by a clear 3-0. That one has been their 5 win in a row in all competitions and the 7th positive result in a row, so their shape seems to be much better than Dinamo's one, considering that Dinamo has lost 4 out of the last 6 official games and comes from a 2-1 loss vs Energetyk despite being favorite. BATE can collect another win today.
Stevie May continues to put promising performances in, bursting down the channels and finding spaces in behind defenders. But with just six goals in 24 appearances and just a solitary league goal for Chris Kane this term, the Saints boss will be hoping Callum Hendry can continue to show the positional nous he displayed to net the winner against the Perth side's top-six targets. After the match, the Northern Irishman said he'd like to see Hendry play through the middle more.
When they met at Osasuna in the league earlier this season it was one of the most best games of football from Spain this season with no less than 7 goals scored total but it was not a one sided affair as Osasuna as hosts scored 3 goals but Real Sociedad really have a great passing game and some excellent players up-front most I like Ishak and scored 4 goals in that one to win 4-3, and Sociedad is even fighting for a Champions League for next season at this stage with good chances for at least 4th place.

Bristol City have lost one of their last 15 in the league, while they've scored twice in three of their last four. They have won four of their last five meetings with Forest at home, scoring exactly two goals in each of those wins while conceding in the last three clashes here. That’s prompted us to back a 2-1 home victory as our correct score prediction.
Liefering is number 6 with 31 points, 20 points behind from the first (SV Ried) and 11 points ahead of the last (Kapfenberger) and 8 points from the relegation places, but that makes them very unlikely that they can ascend to the Austrian Bundesliga, but also unlikely to descend.

Pepe Bordalas' side are now up to 4th in the standings after winning five and drawing two of their last seven La Liga matches, and they are firmly on course to go one better than last season when they agonisingly missed out on Champions League football in the final week of the campaign.
As Panteras will have enjoyed the opportunity to regroup over the last few weeks, and they should be feeling fairly confident heading into this match. Their home form doesn’t look overly impressive on paper, but their two recent defeats came against Porto and Benfica and they have won two, drawn two and lost none of their four hostings of teams outside that traditional Portuguese Big Three.
It’s wonderful. Haaland replied. There are so many young talents, or, there’s young talents, but we can’t forget that we’re good football players as well – we should be allowed to say that now. Sander Berge is playing in Premier League, [Kristoffer] Ajer has been playing in Scotland for some years now, so we’ve got good talent but we’ve also got good football players, we can’t forget that.
