Coach Corini, who lifted Brescia out of Serie B last season, was fired following a defeat at Verona but then rehired after his replacement Fabio Grosso lost all three games in charge, without his team scoring a goal, and was himself dismissed. Balotelli celebrates scoring against SPALGetty Images Balotelli scored the only goal in the 54th minute of the meeting between Serie A's bottom two sides, tapping in from close range, after SPAL goalkeeper Etrit Berisha had blocked two shots in succession, for his third goal of the season.
He previously managed Chelsea, winning the Premier League and FA Cup in his first season in 2009-10, before being sacked after a trophyless second campaign. He has also won domestic league titles with Milan, Paris St Germain and Bayern Munich. But the 60-year old manager now faces a different sort of challenge as he aims to haul under-achieving Everton back into the top half of the Premier League and transform them into a club vying for European competition again.
Burgos live score, schedule & player stats 5 days ago — They concede an average of 0.5 goals per game at home, which is 0.83 goals less than in away games (1.33). Elche is the best in the league in ...
Both teams last round in Ligue 1 had hard games. Bordeaux lost at home against Strasbourg 0-1 and Brest had 0-0 at home against Nice. I doubt they will be again defensive and it is time for over/ Visitors are not so good when playing away from home but they can score. For sure there will be some changes in teams, but I expect here open game for goal more. No calculations, this is Cup game, one leg and there will be no calculations at all. Last one between these two back in September finished 2-2 and over 2.5 look like good bet.
Erling Braut Haaland's remarkable season continued as he came off the bench to score a 95th-minute winner for Borussia Dortmund at Dusseldorf. Dortmund looked to be losing ground at the top of the Bundesliga after a frustrating display which saw a goal ruled out by VAR for handball. But Haaland, 19, came up with his 11th league goal in 12 appearances with a deft flicked header. Dortmund are four points behind leaders Bayern Munich.
Well this is the final round of the first phase of the Bulgarian championship and both of this teams are going to play at the championship group so this is not an important match for them as everything is decided. Both teams are similar in quality and have very good individuals who can make a difference. Whenever this two teams are playing the matches are always very tough and very even and it really do predict the winner and given all of the circumstances a draw here is most realistic for me for sure, as both coaches will not force anything and risk some injury.
If Pogba was regularly demonstrating his brilliance, rather than showing it three times a season, it would be easier for clubs to make that compromise. As it is he may end up sticking out his contract if he is not careful.

Peterborough is in terrible shape and even at home where they are very strong they failed to score in last two games so I think it is finally time to start play as they could and versus top promotion contender they Will be very motivated to win and since Wycombe is not in so good shape I m very confident posh Will score 2 goals but still I m not sure if that is going to be enough for the win, posh conceded 3 goals from Gillingham on last game at home and tonight I think they cant keep clean sheet so over 2.5 is best bet
The home side have an almost identical record with Southampton, four wins, three draws and ten defeats. Villa come into this game having lost their last three league games. Defeats have been inflicted on them by Chelsea, Leicester City and Sheffield United, three of the current top five. Home form has seen them win three league games but the same number have been lost.
One factor about these two sides is their consistency in scoring. Both have good scoring runs and coming from losses, both will be seeking reprieve here. We expect that they will play an open game and thus we still feel goals will flow on both ends, since they have also shown defensive frailties. The difference though, may come in the fact that Spurs have a better home run than Brighton’s away. In their last 10 home matches, Spurs have scored two or more in seven and they have five wins in nine home games. On the other hand, Brighton have one win in nine league matches away from home. Based on this, and their scoring/defensive performances, we will go for a 2-1 win for Spurs.
Fifteen more points will wrap-up the trophy and the only question is when, not if, Liverpool will be crowned as English champions for the first time in 30 years.

Performance-wise, I have done OK in what has been a negative season, so I think I will be alright but it will be a case of waiting to see what is on the table. We will see what Bolton say in the next couple of weeks contract-wise, but with us being told we are relegated to League Two now, they are going to have to cut their budget. I have had bits of interest from elsewhere but, as every player knows, until you get something concrete, then it can mean nothing.
Atalanta, meanwhile, sensations in the Champions League this season, are on course to qualify for the competition again thanks to their league form, which has them sitting in fourth place.

MADRID, Feb 19 (Reuters) - There have been plenty of doubts aired this season about whether Atletico Madrid were capable of reproducing their past glories, but on Tuesday against an all-conquering Liverpool, Diego Simeone's side returned to their roots. Their 1-0 win in the Champions League last-16 first leg was akin to a greatest hits set, containing all the ingredients of what has made Atletico so compelling in the last eight years under Simeone.
Mumbai City did not enjoy the best start to this season and I remember them with my first bet I placed this season in one of their games as they hosted the league leaders from Goa and I bet a big sum on the over 3.5 goals there, they lost that game 4-2 also coming into that fixture after a 4-2 defeat also at home but to Odisha, still they have 3 wins in a row right now unbeaten for more than 5 games and inside the play-off zone for the title.
After a first half in which his side failed to create a single chance, Hodgson brought on James McCarthy at half-time for Riedewald, who had been making his first Premier League start since February 2018. Their first shot - excluding a Christian Benteke cross which hit the crossbar - did not come until the 68th minute, with Max Meyer missing the target. Yet in the final 22 minutes, they had 11 shots.
Premier League players' "backs are against the wall" over discussions about wage cuts, says Danny Rose.

There had been criticism for the slow response from football, while some clubs - including Newcastle - have placed staff on temporary leave. We're all keen to make something happen," Rose, who is on loan at Newcastle, told BBC Radio 5 Live.
Rather than hit back through words, Henderson led his colleagues to do something unprecedented and admirable.

There's an awful lot of work that still needs to be done," Onuora said. On Sunday, a 12-year-old boy was arrested by police investigating racist messages sent to Zaha.

Onuora said: "This is just a reminder that there's an awful lot of work that still needs to be done educationally.
To be second, one point behind and to be fighting for the title - I think that tells a lot. Striker crisis?Son has 14 goals and eight assists in the league and Champions League this season. The official line from Tottenham is that he will be missing for a "number of weeks". However, Mourinho fears his the injury - which the player suffered during the 3-2 win at Aston Villa on Sunday - could end his season.
Odds are dropping at this moment on the away win which is priced quite high at 6.50 at this moment, a reason could be that the hosts are really not that solid in defense despite drawing 0-0 the first leg away in Iraq, and there is really not that big a difference between the Algerian first league level of soccer and the first league level in Iraq which has really been on the rise in recent seasons.
Toby Alderweireld's late header gave Tottenham victory in a tightly-contested north London derby. There was an eerie atmosphere behind closed doors in the vast Tottenham Hotspur Stadium but this was still a fiercely-competitive derby in the traditions of this great rivalry as Spurs and Arsenal battle for a place in Europe next season. Arsenal took the lead after 16 minutes when Alexandre Lacazette's rising drive flashed past Spurs keeper Hugo Lloris but Jose Mourinho's side were level within three minutes when Son Heung-min took advantage of slack defending by Sead Kolasinac and David Luiz to score with a deft chip.
We’ve also seen the postponement of international tournaments. The women’s game still requires to have these big public events, like an World Cup, Olympics, Euros, because these events are massive platforms on which many players are building their careers.

Unlike in the men's game, women's teams at the Olympics can select their first-choice senior national sides for the Games in Tokyo, which have been postponed until 2021.

Billy was brilliant," the England international said. But it was not a surprise to me. I've seen him in training and he was like that in training last season. What the pundits saidFormer Newcastle and England striker Alan Shearer on BBC OneHe has bossed it.

Spurs looked on their way into the fifth round just before the hour, when Son Heung-min crowned a superb break with a low finish from the excellent Giovani lo Celso's pass.

Threat was coming from everywhere with Edouard and Griffiths combining well as they pinned St Johnstone in and created chance after chance.

Well nothing is still done here and Lech are in must win position if they want to finish at the 2nd or at the 3rd spot. They won at their previous match against Piast Gliwice and that match was crucial because now Piast who is at the 2nd spot have only 1 point more than Lech and with the performances that Lech Poznan is showing lately and with the momentum at their side I think they will finish at that 2nd spot and be vice - champions for sure. Pogon on the other hand are at the 8th spot and are playing for completely nothing.
Domestically things aren't going to plan for the visitors either and they are under a large amount of pressure from supporters.
