But they had no time to try to find a leveller as Celtic secured a place in Sunday's fifth-round draw. Reaction & as it happenedFamiliar outcome to humdrum tieThe clash of the top of the Premiership and the next to bottom team in the Championship was never likely to produce an upset. Not with Celtic having won every domestic cup tie they've played in three-and-a-half seasons and every game bar two against Thistle since 1995.

You have to look after senior players. When they become disgruntled, that becomes a challenge.

As a senior player you can either react with fight or flight when you're having these discussions.
To put it simply he is producing championship-challenging numbers at the worst team in the league. Yet where is the praise? Where are the incessant links with top-four clubs? They are pretty much non-existent. Why? Because he is criminally underrated - even, it appears, within his own club. Daniel Farke has a reputation for being a progressive coach - expansive football led his Norwich to the Championship title ahead of Chris Wilder's overlapping centre-halves at Sheffield United and Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds no less.
But we did not want to lose in those circumstances. Our manager, John Lyall, organised a full-blooded practice game at Upton Park against our reserve side and asked them to treat it like a competitive game, to give us some idea of what it will be like to play there when it was so eerie, without any atmosphere. Even that did not help the players too much, according to Parkes. We trained at Upton Park during the day in the build-up to the game," he said.

Liverpool is an unbelievable place to be and we’re a very, very good football team and hopefully we can keep improving. Obviously the gaffer waited to sign his dependent on whether I signed mine, so that makes me a feel bit more important!” 18:22 - Milly 2022 Until 2022, according to reports, although that was not specified by Liverpool themselves in their article! 18:20 - Kloop hails 'exceptional' Milner Klopp tells Liverpoolfc.
Miedema tried her luck twice within a matter of seconds, the first blocked, the second a whisker wide, before she saw a header back across goal go agonisingly past the post as the whole of the City Ground held its breath. And even when the Dutchwoman did find the target, she was met by the brick wall that was Berger, with the shot-stopper pulling off some late heroics to smother the striker's volley when she looked destined to score at the back post.
Dejan is an outstanding centre-half. You tell me one player on Saturday night who played his normal level and I would be really surprised. It's not because two players didn't play the week before. The loss to Watford was Liverpool's first league defeat of the season, scratching their chances of an undefeated campaign, but they still hold a 22-point lead over Manchester City and need 12 points to secure a first league title since 1990.
In many cases that’s not the case, it’s a bit of a myth, but what we have to do is protect jobs. We’re doing whatever we can to do that and that’s the priority at the moment for just about every industry in the country, including ours. Premier League and English Football League clubs are set to discuss a collective wage deferral agreement at a meeting with the Professional Footballers’ Association on Wednesday.
It hurts a lot [putting Xavi last] as I’m talking an absolute world-class player but you have given me four better ones. I love people that get you off your seat and I would have Scholes ahead of Xavi as he would change games more. Xavi would dictate the pace of the play and his link-up was one of the world’s best in his position but Scholes could do anything – score goals with his head, score goals outside the box, ghost in and score and sit back deep and dictate play like Xavi did.

This season has been an entertaining one for Famalicao, as they lead the way in terms of total goals per game. With over 50 goals scored in their first 14 matches of the season, they are a good side to watch. The home side are aiming to add to their impressive attacking record, which is up there with the league’s elite.

Friday's assignment at Bramall Lane is undoubtedly Moyes' biggest test since his return to West Ham however, and the Scot will have to find a way to reverse the away day problems he has inherited to carve out a positive result on Friday.
BATE lost both of their opening two league games, both were away from home and both teams got on the scoresheet in each game. They finally got off the mark with a 1-0 home win over newly-promoted Rukh Brest. Another loss came in midweek though when they lost 1-0 at Slavia Mozyr (who also beat them in the league) in the first leg of their Belarus Cup semi-final.
Meanwhile, they have scored in all except one of the 17 matches at home and will be hoping to extend this against Liverpool. Among the teams in the top nine that have already visited Arsenal, the Gunners have managed to beat only Manchester United, but they have lost just three of their 17 home league matches this season.
I believe with effort from everyone at the club we can stick together and overcome this difficult period together. All 16 Chinese Super League clubs are now back in China while the national team, which was training in the United Arab Emirates in preparation for now postponed World Cup qualifying matches, decamped to the southern island of Hainan over the weekend.
He's been fit to play for a period but of course we were blessed at centre back with good performances from Cahill and Tomkins," Hodgson added. So he's had to wait for his chance. He played a full game for the Under-23s, played on Saturday for a considerable period in the second half. Palace, who ended a winless run of five league games against Burnley, are 11th in the table with 18 points from 14 games.
The support we had at Old Trafford was part of the magic of the day. They were so loud, it felt like we were back at Elland Road and it helped us show we meant business and were there for a reason, not just to play for pride and avoid a heavy defeat. It had been the same when I had spoken to our fans beforehand too - they made it clear about the rivalry between the two clubs and how much it would mean to them if we won.
Primavera is team with the young players, that are base for the Italian clubs to get the talents from. They already now can play on the tight result, and are hard to lose in those friendly matches, against rival of the Eskilstuna level. They already showed power with even tougher rivals, and now are going to the another lower division opponent, that is in the pre season training.
It looks a foul but Mike Dean waves play on. They'll have to check that surely? 39’ PENALTY TO CITY! The ball goes out at last, and Dean gets word that it's a foul by Aurier on Aguero. SAVED! Oh my! Gundogan takes it, and, Lloris dives to the left to parry it away! Yet Sterling goes in for the rebound and gets there ahead of Lloris, who looks to have brought him down! Is that another penalty? 41’ It's not! VAR has reviewed the incident and there's no second penalty for City.
They did win in the Coupe de France, last time out, but beating lower-level opposition doesn't exactly set them up for a match against the best team in the country, nor does their recent league form. St. Etienne have lost four of their last five in Ligue 1, conceding 11 goals in the process.
England's cricket players were heading home after their tour of Sri Lanka was called off, while this weekend's Six Nations rugby match between Wales and Scotland was postponed. France's Top 14, the richest rugby union league in the world, was also suspended. Cycling's Giro d'Italia, the first Grand Tour of the season which was due to start in Budapest on May 9, has been postponed.

I see a difference in terms of quality between these two sides, while it is true Wolfsburg finished just 2nd their own group stage in the Europa League and Malmo won their own group, Malmo was really lucky to be in a group with Copenhagen, Dynamo Kyiv and Lugano from Switzerland, modest clubs and nowhere near the quality of Wolfsburg who have been restarting the season in Germany for more than a month right now and with excellent results lately in the league as well winning games on the road as well.
Nottingham Forest will play at home against Middlesbrough, another tight match from the England Championship. The hosts are one of the best teams in the championship, but recently they looked little bit shaky and seemed not in a very good form as they managed to win only one of their last 4 matched, but I see them very motivated here coming into this match. On the other hand, visitors are near to the relegation zone and they're one of the worst away team. So I think that they're not going to make a surprise today against the home side Nottingham Forest
Both of these teams' respective fixtures last week ended in a 3-2 scoreline. Werder Bremen won 3-2, while Paderborn lost 3-2. We feel that this scoreline has a good chance of repeating itself this weekend. We are backing Werder Bremen to earn a 3-2 victory this Sunday.

Trying to resume matches on the 9th, I think that’s their way of saying they know the players are safe,” said 19-year-old Canada international Davies. They know that everyone is going to be safe on the field. Coming back to the first training session, it was like going back to school again. Being inside for almost two weeks and not seeing anyone – just seeing them on video – it was good to see everyone again, run around and kick a ball.
Struggling Watford snapped a string of three straight defeats with a 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace in a scrappy Premier League clash at Vicarage Road. Watford caretaker Hayden Mullins' final game in charge only highlighted the overall improvement required at the bottom club as new boss Nigel Pearson prepares them for a trip to leaders Liverpool next Saturday before Manchester United come calling.
We’re confident that Northampton will win on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0. The hosts have a good record at home while their guest have had plenty of struggles on the road. Northampton have a habit of keeping clean sheets in their own backyard while Morecambe so often fail to score on the road, which is why we are confident of a home win on Saturday.
The next game takes us to Serbia. Here are Back and Subotica opposite. The host is on the 5th place in the table. The guest is on the 8th place in the table. The host is 8 points ahead and has a better goal difference. They have scored 11 times more and scored 8 goals less. Both teams, however, have rather a passing record of the last 5 games. However, the host has a good record. Here they have lost none of the last 5 games. By contrast, the guest is very weak in away games. They lost 4 games in their last 5 away games. That's why I'm counting on a win for the host. AHC -0.75 victory 1
Spain bid to win the Davis Cup Finals in front of their home crowd. They have Rafael Nadal of course and that means that Canada go into their first final knowing they are almost 1-0 down before they start. It's likely that this match will go to the deciding doubles as Spain's second singles player hasn't been coming up with the goods this week. Spain will likely have Nadal in the doubles too and they can be backed to get the win and lift the trophy.

Plenty has been written about Liverpool, so let’s devote a medium-sized paragraph to pay tribute to the side that finally managed to stop them. The result pulled Watford out of the relegation zone - which Gary Neville clearly felt so happy about, he had to crack open the champagne. Well done Watford! Zeroes: The Bundesliga There were incredible scenes in German football this weekend as *two* matches were disrupted due to insults aimed at Hoffenheim owner Dietmar Hopp.
The Osasuna goalkeeper then found himself stranded, but two defenders were back on the line to make the clearance! 30’ Bale should score! That should have been an equaliser for Real Madrid! Modric clipped a cross into the Welshman, he had a free header having climbed highest, but guides his effort over the crossbar.
Hertha BSC Berlin will lock horns with Borussia Dortmund in Berlin Olympic Stadium. This game is the most important game for both teams because things has falling apart for both since this past month, and this game is a game to make things right. Jurgen Klinsmann the German ex.-International has taken over as Coach at Hertha and will use this game to prove himself again in the Bundesliga after having short stint with FC Bayern München in the past.
While some would see Forest as vulnerable following some below-par results at home this term, the Latics aren’t one of those sides. Wigan are one of only two teams – along with Middlesbrough – yet to win away from home in the Championship this season (D4 L8), with the Latics' last victory on the road coming against Leeds in April last season.
Vlasim and Chrudim will face each other in the upcoming match in the Division 2 in Czech Republic. Vlasim this season have the following results: 7W, 3D and 12L. Meanwhile Chrudim have 9W, 4D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The home side huffed and puffed, but without intensity or conviction, and the tens of thousands of empty seats, well before the final whistle, showed just how comfortable Burnley were. They are now well set to secure another season the top flight; United, meanwhile, are in all sorts. TALKING POINT Is this it? It feel harsh to judge Solskjaer when he's without his best striker and his two best midfielders; when United's owners have denied him the money any manager would need to make the team competitive.

Go back 11 years. Howe expects a relegation battle Eddie Howe described Bournemouth's last four seasons in the Premier League as relegation battles and said on Monday he expects the current campaign to be no different. Having slipped to 12th in the standings after a run of three defeats in their last three games, Howe called for more consistency ahead of Tuesday's trip to 11th-placed Crystal Palace.

And now that they're not in Italy, they feel maybe relief they can play in this game. We have to be ready for that," Klopp told reporters. Napoli gave us a proper fight at Anfield last season (in a 1-0 win). We expect them to be strong. Whatever has happened, I don't have a real idea. But if I was a player, I'd be trying to bring the group together and fight the things from outside.
