Arsenal's top scorer Aubameyang was sent off for a rash challenge on Crystal Palace's Max Meyer during their 1-1 draw on Saturday and Arteta said the striker would serve a three-match suspension after an appeal to reduce it to one game was rejected. It has been confirmed that he is going to be suspended for three games," Arteta told reporters on Wednesday ahead of 10th-placed Arsenal's league match against Sheffield United on Saturday.
We were growing. We would have been top 12 the next season. It would've been Bournemouth-like stuff. We could have sold players for £10-12m. It would have changed everything. In the race for the second automatic promotion spot, Hull limped over the line with a draw against champions Cardiff, with Watford beaten by Leeds when victory would have seen the Hornets go up. Eight days separated Anthony Knockaert's injury time goal to get Leicester into the play-offs and his penalty miss which saw the Foxes miss out on a Wembley finalAnthony Knockaert's 91st-minute goal saw Leicester win 3-2 at East Midlands rivals Nottingham Forest and snatch the final play-off spot from Bolton.
Clearly Ronaldo is not a player like all the others. It's pointless to think that all the players are equal. If someone were to not accept that situation, it would be a problem for them and not for the team, but I see no such issues. Everyone is crystal clear. Cristiano is an immense resource. He has stamina, but perhaps lacks a little in sharpness right now, which is only to be expected.
Ryan Kent took it upon himself to do just that in the ninth minute, when he darted down the left and skipped past his marker and into the box before firing a left-footed shot at goal. It would have been a superb opener, if not for Nathan Baxter's strong save to parry it wide. Kent's directness should have galvanised Rangers but instead Gerrard's side were blunt in attack and spent much of the opening period threatening from distance.
By now, you’re probably familiar with his panda character, which he’s used as part of an anti-racism message for a few years now. The panda returned again recently. View more on instagramAgain, one thing that’s notable is the production quality. The wide shot. The bed track. The insertion of his own branded merch - that hoodie with his catchphrase ‘I love this game’ emblazoned. He’s like a one-man production unit.
This is not about them making money, it is to protect them. How do we get it done? There are lots of ideas regarding having one base, where everyone will be tested and everyone plays and you get the games done. But there are also lots of questions about the logistics around it. Where do teams stay and how do you feed them and look after them? There would be a massive knock-on effect. You can quarantine players and limit the number of people who have access to the stadiums, training grounds and hotels but it will be impossible to keep everyone in a totally secure and sterile bubble.
There were some positives, such as a better defensive shape and an encouraging Premier League debut for 20-year-old defender Japhet Tanganga, who can be pleased with the way he coped against Firmino and Mohamed Salah. The way Tottenham came back in the second half after having only 26% possession in the opening period was also impressive, although his post-match comments may rankle with former boss Pochettino, who instilled a Klopp-like pressing game at Spurs.
Pacos Ferreira have only kept clean sheets in 29% of their home games this season and the same percentage can be used to highlight the number of clean sheets Braga have kept in their away games. Both teams have scored in 43% of Pacos Ferreira’s home games so far and exactly three goals have been scored in 29% of the hosts’ home matches.

December's 0-0 El Clasico stalemate at Camp Nou was a decent result for Real Madrid, however, further draws against Valencia (1-1) and Athletic Bilbao (0-0) on the run up to Christmas mean Los Blancos are now playing catch-up with arch-rivals Barcelona in the La Liga title race.
Goalkeeper Alisson was in Rio de Janeiro. Striker Roberto Firmino was in The Maldives. Midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum was in Dubai. And right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold was in Miami.

Gayle's impact was even more immediate than that of El Mohamady, with his neatly-taken finish coming just 94 seconds after he was introduced for the injured Matt Ritchie. Villa's point is reward for a first half in which they were the more positive of the two sides, and also their determination not to allow themselves to sink to another damaging defeat. It may not take them out of the relegation zone but it will be a boost after they were denied by Sheffield United in their first game after the restart and allowed Chelsea to come back to beat them on Sunday.
That is what should have happened, based on the entire history of labor negotiations involving the men and women players and the Federation. The union called for an end to what it described as exploitation of athletes to generate revenues that are siphoned off to benefit owners, leagues and teams. It also called on fans to take action until the U.
Objectively commented, Znamya Truda is not a reliable choice in a friendly against Saturn Ramenskoye in the match tonight. In theory, this is a balanced match when both Znamya Truda and Saturn Ramenskoye are the teams playing in Russia's third division - but different from the region. But based on actual performance, Znamya Truda is completely inferior to the opponent.

With Manchester City facing a possible European ban over breaches of financial fair play rules, Sheffield United have their sights set on a top-six finish, a feat they haven't managed since the 1974-75 season. The hosts took the lead in the 36th minute when John Lundstram crossed for an unmarked Sharp to plant a firm header past Tim Krul, and they could have had a couple more before the break as Norwich struggled to match their intensity.
Atletico Madrid eased into the last 16 of the Champions League with a comfortable victory over Lokomotiv Moscow at the Wanda Metropolitano. Atletico's win sees them finish second ahead of Bayer Leverkusen, who were beaten 2-0 by Group D winners Juventus in Germany. Kieran Trippier saw his early penalty saved but Joao Felix then scored the hosts' second spot-kick of the night. And Felipe's second-half volley confirmed Atletico's progression.
I don't know whether or not the Treasury can legally turn down these applications. But at the same time I think football needs to have a good, long, hard look at itself and see whether or not morally this is really right and whether or not actually what they need to do is come to an arrangement with some of their stars so they can continue to pay their [non-playing] staff 100% of their wages rather than furloughing them on 80%.

One more super interesting duel for tonight from Belgium, but this one is from second league in this country. First reason for this bet, is tradition and earlier duels of this teams, who are as a rule, almost always playing very efficient duels. In last official match, OH Leuven and Lokeren are played 2-3 in October this year, but similar was and in few earlier duels, 0-2, 4-0, 3-3, 1-2 and similar. I will in any case take goals here and that is for me really ok option. Over is really great option for this match and I just must try it.
Of course, the visitors should benefit from their impressive record against the Rs. QPR have lost their last six league matches against Preston, a run stretching back to August 2016. That streak includes victories in their last three away league visits to QPR. Meanwhile, as Preston manager, Alex Neil has won more Championship games against QPR than any other side (four). Given that form and considering QPR’s defensive troubles, we’re going with a 1-0 away win here.
Former Norway U21, Molde and Stromsgodset manager Tor Ole Skullerud added when asked about Haaland’s credit “I think he has to get the credit himself.

Ancelotti was the last manager to win an away Champions League match at Anfield against Liverpool, leading Real Madrid to a 3-0 win in October 2014. No manager has won more away Champions League games in England than Ancelotti (three - level with Jose Mourinho and Massimiliano Allegri). This is Napoli's 82nd away match in a major European competition - they've only managed consecutive away victories once, winning three in a row in November 2015 in the Europa League.
Leno palms the shot away and Arsenal scramble the ball clear. CHANCE! Balbuena curls a lovely cross in to the back post. Masouras has a free header from six yards out, but puts it over the bar.

Everyone can see the impact it is having on the economy and everyone in football is going to be affected," he said. Companies, like football, that provide entertainment are really suffering. It changes the mentality in everyone. I was very scared at the beginning. Health is the most important thing. Our responsibility is to understand the situation and have solidarity because we all participate in this business.
Since he left, United have made repeated mistakes. They have appointed ill-suited managers and signed ill-suited players for their ill-suited managers. However, their 2-0 win in the Manchester derby suggests that they might have stumbled across a potentially successful formula. Perhaps. And stumbled is the correct, er, noun.
James Lofthouse from Torquay thought he had four tickets for England's match with the Czech Republic on Tuesday, 23 June and two for the game with one of the play-off winners - which could be Scotland - on Friday, 19 June.

It doesn't help African players. We won't sell Sadio, Mo and Naby because they're playing in January, of course not. But if you are thinking of buying one, you have to think about they won't play for a month in January," Klopp said. The tournament, played every two years, was switched to June-July last year when it was played in Egypt, avoiding disruption to the European club season but provoking concerns about high temperatures.

If anything we are all monkeys. Serie A chief executive Luigi de Siervo said: "The League's commitment against all forms of prejudice is strong and concrete, we know that racism is an endemic and very complex problem, which we will tackle on three different levels; the cultural one, through works like that of Simone; the sporting one, with a series of initiatives together with clubs and players, and the repressive one, thanks to collaboration with the police.
