The Ballon d'Or for the world's best players will not be awarded in 2020 because of a "lack of sufficient fair conditions" created by the coronavirus pandemic. The prize has been awarded by France Football every year since 1956. Barcelona's Lionel Messi won the men's prize last year, with USA forward Megan Rapinoe claiming the women's trophy. France Football said awarding a prize in a "crippled" year would "not be worthy" of their history.
What has really impressed about Salzburg is the way in which they've got at teams, played without fear and scored plenty of goals. It's no fluke that Jesse Marsch's men have scored more goals than each of the other three sides in Group E. The Austrians have adopted a forward-thinking approach at every turn. Such an approach has left them open to attack on several occasions, but had they not looked to get on the front foot then they probably wouldn't be in with a shout of making the last-16.
If they have problems in school or in other parts of their lives, we want to solve them. We have social workers here. We don't just choose our coaches because of their training skills but because they have wider abilities," said Ricken. As Borussia Dortmund have the highest average attendance in Europe - almost 80,000 - and were ranked 12th in the latest Deloitte Money League released in January, a single trophy - the German Cup - since Klopp won the double in 2012 seems a poor return.
Chongqing Lifan and Wuhan Zall will face each other in the upcoming match in the Super League in China. Chongqing Lifan this season have the following results: 9W, 9D and 10L. Meanwhile Wuhan Zall have 11W, 8D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The away side will not allow a defeat from the home side. Both sides are great at tackling and striking for goals. Slusk being at the 4th position on the league table will not do any mistake to fall back and let the smooth starting of the league turn into vain. The home side is a strong and a wild attacking team that take-on any kind of team they meet. To make things more simple for the two sides, they will strive for a goalless draw or a 1-1 draw game in this match. There will be less than 3 goals in this match.
In many cases, those gains are cash (or capital appreciation), in some they take the form of political clout or soft power, and in a few others, it’s ego. With a few exceptions, like FC United of Manchester, most match-going supporters accepted the change, at least in England. For ESPN, Gab Marcotti discusses the theory of playing games behind closed doors to complete the Premier League season.
These two teams had met in the third round of the FA Cup exactly a year ago and Chelsea won it 2-0 on that occasion. Forest thought they had pulled one back when Ryan Yates glanced a header into the net but it was ruled offside by an assistant, before the decision was confirmed by VAR. Chelsea boss Frank Lampard, who won the FA Cup four times as a player with the Blues, was able to bring on 19-year-old English midfielder Tariq Lamptey near the end, handing the teenager a home debut in the 76th minute.
NIFL has the opportunity to decide for itself what it wants to do, and whether it wants to carry on. Keep in mind, there will be significant costs to that and government regulations will be key. The original date for them to make a decision for Uefa was 25 May but that has been put back until 12 June, when NIFL has to have a plan to indicate how it intends to finish the season. Title holders Linfield are currently top of the Irish Premiership table"That would of course include the representatives that will play in the Uefa competitions in season 2020-21.
Wolfsberger are the team at the bottom and two losses from their last two games has really set them back after a promising start. Their opening two results saw them pick up a commanding 4-0 win in the reverse of this fixture before holding Roma to a 1-1 draw but two losses to Baseksehir have really hurt the team’s chance of qualifying.

Dean Smith's side will have to play a little bit open, which is especially dangerous when you are a team that regularly concede goals anyway. Arsenal were well organised and disciplined at the back against Liverpool and City, and also managed to create some chances for their talented front players. If they can do that and get enough service to them, they win them games. I think Villa will make a fight of this one, because they know how important it is to their season, but I still don't see them taking three points.
Leicester will not sell any of their players during the forthcoming transfer window, manager Brendan Rodgers said on Thursday. It follows speculation regarding in-form midfielder James Maddison, who has been linked with a move to Manchester United. There'll be no-one leaving in January - categorically," Rodgers said. I'm sure if we speak [to the club's board], they will have the same message. Maddison, 23, has scored five times and provided three assists in the league this season to help the Foxes reach second spot after 16 games - six points clear of champions Manchester City, who sit in third.
Gilmour, 18, was chosen to play alongside Ross Barkley and Mateo Kovacic in the heart of the Chelsea midfield and helped the Blues to a 2-0 victory in their fifth round FA Cup match.

Yeah, he's just a really little six," replied the father when asked whether Mount met the age requirement. After a couple of sessions running rings around the six-year-olds, Mount was moved up to play in the under-eights category. Mount was invited to join Boarhunt FC by the parent of another child at Soccer City. And it was as a six-year-old in his first seven-a-side tournament playing for Boarhunt - which was also his first time playing a competitive match on grass - that he was spotted by Chelsea scout Rob Winzar.
A talisman for many of those years, there have been few finer sights than Silva in full flow orchestrating City's attacking play. While the Spaniard is set to leave the club this summer, he has won the Premier League four times, the FA Cup twice and the League Cup on five occasions. Not a bad return. Wright: "You can't question how integral he has been to Manchester City and he is a World Cup winner.
Olivier Giroud, in for Michy Batshuayi with Tammy Abraham on the bench after injury, fired low past Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris for Chelsea's opener in the 15th minute after the recalled Ross Barkley hit the post. And all four of those brought into the team linked up for Chelsea's second three minutes after the break as Giroud's flick found Mason Mount, who played in Barkley. He produced a perfectly weighted pass to Marcos Alonso, who did not even break stride before a sweet finish past Lloris.

Sevilla's 2-0 midweek win against Qarabag at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan was their fifth consecutive triumph in the Group Phase and they can now put that competition to one side until the knockout stages begin in February.
Those statistics perhaps justify the tactical reasoning behind the change, but what do you think?'For me, it was the wrong call'Former Everton defender Joleon Lescott criticised the decision. He told Sky Sports: "Yeah, that's tough to take as an individual. He's a young player as well. For me, it was the wrong call. I know after the game he said it wasn't about his performances but the fact he didn't shake his hand after the game makes me believe it was something about his performance that he didn't like.
A top 2nd team vs a worst team of this season. Dortmund is absolutely came hard after break. They have adopted the same aggressive and attacking style of game play. Dortmund scored 74 goals in 28 matches so far. Just behind Bayern Munich. Also to keep their 2nd spot safe they need to play every match in serious manner. Paderborn is not in the shape to stop Dortmund below 3 goals. Though they show enough progress from last 3 games. But still there capacity cannot be judged as to hold Dortmund. Therefore -1.5 asian handicap looks pretty fine option on Value odds. Good luck.
Brazilian Taison, 31, stuck his finger up at a section of the stadium occupied by Dynamo Kiev fans and kicked the ball into the stands after hearing the abuse during Shakhtar's 1-0 win. The player was sent off for the incident and was in tears as he left the pitch. World players' union FIFPro had asked for the red card to be overturned but the Ukrainian football federation has now confirmed the suspension.
Progressive carries measures the number times a player brings the ball at least five metres upfield, and a number defenders - rather than traditional 'dribblers' - make this list as a result. Liverpool left-back Andrew Robertson leads the way and the presence of Reds right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold in the top 10 it suggests this is a tactic effectively employed by the league leaders. Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold are redefining the way full-backs play," former Reds striker Peter Crouch said on Match of the Day 2 earlier in November.
As we can see from the fact that they've conceded nine goals on the road, Donny, who've got the fourth-best away defensive record in the division, don't give an abundance away, but they're blighted by a lack of power at the other end. A total of ten in seven seems modest but given that seven of those ten came in a single game against a dreadful Southend side, it's easy to see that Doncaster have attacking problems when playing away from home. They've scored in just three out of seven.

Sevilla look sturdier, sharper and a far more complete outfit than we've seen over the last couple of years and they're in the midst of one of their best runs for a very long time. They're finding a way to grind out wins as typified by their 0-1 success at Valladolid last week thanks to an early Ever Banega penalty, a result which backed up a tenacious 1-2 victory away to Real Betis before the international break.
Leicester stay third, six points ahead of Chelsea who now have a game in hand. Unmarked defender Lewis's swerving strike was the Canaries' first goal in open play since New Year's Day, or more than 700 minutes of action. The clean sheet was also only the home side's second of the season. Leicester, with top scorer Jamie Vardy left at home to nurse a calf strain, had the ball in the net after 49 minutes through Kelechi Iheanacho but it was ruled out after VAR replays showed the ball hit his arm.

The 23-year-old's best moment came early in the second half when he took on three players by himself before poking a shot just over the bar. From then on his influence waned and Hull's spark dulled but Grosicki's fortuitous goal in the closing stages gave them renewed hope. In the end, a second goal was just beyond them but this was a gutsy performance that Tigers fans will hope can help reignite their play-off challenge.
The Premier League season is set to restart on 17 June with Aston Villa v Sheffield United and Manchester City v Arsenal, the BBC has learned. The matches are the two games in hand.

Sweden international Forsberg scored an 89th minute penalty and then headed in another in stoppage time to send the Germans through with a game to spare and end Benfica's Champions League hopes for this season. Goals from Pizzi and Carlos Vinicius had put the visitors ahead before Forsberg's brace completed the hosts' late turnaround.
They host France who have surprised many by winning their first couple of games. The home side has had the upperhand on their opponents with eight wins in the last nine played. The only loss to France was in Paris and not since 2010 have the French won in Cardiff. Wales began the defence of their title with a 42-0 home win over Italy.

While technical issues have not been a problem, Jepson joked some players have been arriving late to team meetings and forward Kirsty Linnett is always singing on their Zoom chats. There's always a few people jumping on a bit late but they're the usual suspects. The players are good with it and they have a right laugh," she said. The problem is trying to hear yourself think when they all start talking on it.
