Bravo got a touch to it but there was so much pace and power on the volley he couldn't keep it out. GOAL! Dinamo Zagreb 1-1 Man City (Jesus): Jesus levels for City with a lovely header from a Mahrez cross! Foden was hacked down in the build-up by a Dinamo player who injured himself in the process and the hosts are livid that City didn't kick the ball out! Ademi is booked for his protests.
Man City v NorwichI can see some goals in this one - unfortunately for Norwich, they will all come from Manchester City. It is just a case of how many, really. I'll be interested to see what team Pep Guardiola puts out, because City's Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid is almost two weeks away. I don't think it will make a difference to the outcome of this game if he decides to rest people because their squad is so strong - it's more about how Pep will try to keep his players sharp before they face Real, so he might use this game for that purpose.
City hire Brexit lawyer Manchester City have hired the same lawyer who twice put paid to the government’s Brexit plans, reports the Mirror. David Pannick QC was at the heart to block moves first by Theresa May, and then Boris Johnson, as they sought to bring forward Britain’s exit from the European Union.
Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has dismissed speculation linking him with the vacant Arsenal manager's post. The 46-year-old Northern Irishman has led the Foxes to second in the Premier League and is a contender to replace Unai Emery, who was sacked last week. Rodgers has previously admitted there is an exit clause in his contract but said: "Why would I want to leave Leicester City at this time? "I am very happy so would have no need to look elsewhere.
It was a good day for a couple of the new faces in charge of struggling Championship sides. The wily Neil Warnock made a winning start as Middlesbrough manager, masterminding a fine away success at Stoke City, while Luton Town's Nathan Jones oversaw a rare away victory which meant he wasn't left thinking about a lazy summer barbecue.
Wycombe have scored two goals in each of their last three matches and Doncaster have conceded two or more goals in three of their last six matches, but have only failed to score in one of those games, which is why we believe a 2-1 final scoreline in favour of the hosts makes the most sense this weekend.
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.
To grow alongside women's football and to see where it is now, I'd have never dreamt it when I was 11 or 12 years old, when I first got into playing in girls' teams. As a girl I think I've been told it's not normal; it's not a girly thing to be competitive and strong. It's something I've fought against my whole life. I've just realised now in my late 20s that being a competitive, strong little girl was the best thing that could have happened to me.

I don't know if it is getting worse. It shouldn't be there in any way. I just can't get my head around how people still do this. I have got no words for it. If any of their players or our players are affected then I apologise in the name of Spurs, but they are minority idiots. We don't identify with these people. Premier League managers on racismTottenham manager Jose Mourinho: "I can repeat I am totally, totally against racism in society and obviously against racism in my football world.
However, Partick Thistle, who would be relegated from the second tier if the yes vote was carried, have said their legal advice states Dundee's retracted no vote should stand, therefore defeating the proposal. We understand that this may bring more questions than answers and we will look to give a much more substantial account of the past few days at the conclusion of this process," added Dundee. Our supporters should know that we are, as always, looking out for the best interests of both Dundee Football Club and Scottish football as a whole.
View more on twitter19. Doncaster v BT SportBT Sport's broadcasting deal has now ended, but it's widely acknowledged that their coverage of Scottish football in recent years has been passionate, insightful and fun. Therefore, quite what possessed the chief executive of the SPFL to have a go at them is hard to fathom. We will see the Scottish game given the profile and coverage it deserves next year by [exclusive rights holder] Sky Sports," said Neil Doncaster, before adding that broadcasters "hadn't given it [the SPFL] the love they show other leagues.
Parma's Serie A tie against SPAL kicked off 75 minutes late after Italy's sports minister requested the league was suspended with immediate effect because of the coronavirus outbreak. The match was due to kick off at 12:30 local time (11:30 GMT) but players were told to return to the dressing room from the tunnel. It eventually got under way at 13:45 local time (12:45 GMT). On Sunday, up to 16m people were placed in quarantine in Italy.
Heimstetten will be at home against Wacker Burghausen in Germany Regional league Bayer State. Heimstetten are in 14th position with 19th points from 20 matches, scoring 32 goals against 47. While the visitors from Burghausen are in 12th position with 21 points from 20 matches, scoring 24 goals against 30. The visitors are doing very poor with just 1 draw in the last 7 matches, also the host are in a very bad condition with just 1 game won in the last 7 games. The last 2 meetings from both teams ended over 2.5 goals scored in the end of full 90 minutes, I expect such to happen here as both teams needed the points to fight against relegation.
The 29-year-old England right-back is understood to have said sorry, told them it will not happen again and, in one instance, sent a match-worn shirt. Walker is facing disciplinary action from the Premier League club over a lockdown breach in April, when he was reported to have hosted a party involving two sex workers. City said the player had "directly contravened" his responsibility as a role model.
With Sweden not yet in lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic, seventh-tier Eskilstuna FC and eighth-tier outfit Naeshulta Goif had been due to play a practice game last Monday. But an explosion of interest from gamblers and bookmakers around the globe and attempts to control the outcome of the game quickly put a stop to that.

In the 'Correct Score' market, a 1-1 draw stands out as a viable option. Neither side have thrived offensively, but they've tended to score the odd goal, while they've both conceded exactly once in 50% of their respective home and away matches.
The new exam done on coach Jorge Jesus has come back negative for COVID-19," the Rio de Janeiro club said in a statement. Jesus posted an Instagram message on Tuesday declaring he had tested positive for the virus. The club said at the time the result was “weak positive or inconclusive” and a second test was required.
I signed for Celtic in early December and that Old Firm derby was the first game I started," says Brattbakk, who is now an airline pilot in his native Norway. I was used to playing in the Champions League with Rosenborg and big matches in Norway, but running out on the pitch at Celtic Park that day is something I'll never forget. The noise was just amazing. I'm not going to say that game was a turning point, but it closed the gap and gave us belief that we could win the league.
I am the Arsenal captain. I love this club. I am committed to it and desperate to bring it back to the top, where it belongs", he added. Aubameyang has yet to sign an extension to his current contract at the Emirates Stadium, which runs until 2021. He joined the club in January 2018 for a then-record fee for the Gunners of 56 million pounds ($74 million).
Palace have scored in three of their last five home matches but they have the lowest goal tally among the top 13 teams, at 13 goals. They have not been great in defence too; from the 14 league matches played, they have conceded 18 goals. Chelsea have lost their last two Premier League matches. Aston Villa have scored in each of their last four matches.
Birmingham would endure penalties heartbreak again in 2001 as they conceded a last-minute equaliser in their second leg away at David Moyes' Preston, before a 4-2 defeat in the shootout. Blues also reached the 2001 League Cup final, losing to Liverpool - again on penalties. They would finally be promoted through the play-offs in the following campaign at the fourth time of asking, but it was new manager Steve Bruce who took them there, after Francis had left the club in October 2001 by mutual consent.
The 30-year-old has not played for Real since 5 October and his return to international duty was dubbed by the Spanish media as the 'Miracle in Wales' this week. Wales 'want to have time of lives' at EurosWhy did Real fall out of love with Bale?Wales fans have turned the mantra 'Wales. Golf. Madrid' into a chant, with Bale himself admitting he found the song amusing. And after securing qualification Bale was front and central as the squad paraded a banner echoing that sentiment.

A set-piece proved their undoing as the hosts equalised against the run of play, with Jefferson Lerma heading home. Andreas Christensen's marking was questionable, while Willy Caballero - once again selected ahead of Kepa Arrizabalaga - arguably should have saved it. Fikayo Tomori was at fault as the Cherries raced into the lead moments later as Jack Stacey's cross was turned in by Joshua King.
Slovakia's government took the step on Monday of banning sports, cultural and other events for two weeks as part of measures to limit coronavirus spread in the central European country. It has reported seven confirmed cases as of Tuesday. The SFZ said it had consulted state authorities and soccer ruling body UEFA before deciding to run the schedule match at an empty stadium.
This season, Porto have played seven home matches in the league; they have won all and kept clean sheets too. They have scored two goals or more in six of the seven ho0me matches. They have the second best attack in the league, having scored 34, and they as well have the second best defence in the league, having conceded nine goals.
Charlton head into this clash having seen both teams score in each of their last five away trips. The Addicks have been high scoring overall, with over 2.5 goals in nine of their last 10 matches. Following that run and given the visitors recent streak of goals conceded, we are going with a 2-1 home win as our correct score prediction in this one.
Five of Madrid's last seven games in all competitions have produced fewer than 2.5 goals, a feature which has been synonymous with Sevilla's fixtures this term. A much more organised and balanced side than in the past, Los Palanganas have taken an extremely measured approach to most of their La Liga matches this season, which has led to 14 of 19 producing fewer than 2.5 goals.
England will also have the advantage of playing at home with all three games at Wembley, something Southgate was keen to accentuate. I'm never sure whether it's a good draw. We have played two of the teams before and for us to play at Wembley is something special. We are looking forward to the tournament," Southgate said.
They may have taken one point from their first four matches in the group, but with two games to play they are just four points off second. They could cut that gap to a point with a victory in this meeting with Dinamo Zagreb, but that would require a major improvement from the hosts. The Serie A side have seen their campaign stall in recent weeks, with major problems both at home and in Europe.
In the betting, 'Napoli Win to Nil' appeals. Defensively, Napoli have been strong in Group E, especially at this venue, where they shut out Liverpool's fierce attack. In addition, they also shut Genk out, giving away just one on target in the process, in the reverse fixture. We've seen that they've got the attacking quality to do the business against Genk's dodgy back-line, but given that they must win, they're unlikely to do anything stupid defensively.
Linlithgow Rose come into this game after a turbulent few weeks in all competitions. The club's decision to sack now ex-manager Mark Bradley and replace him with Brown Ferguson hasn't quite paid off yet, with the Rose winning 3 of their last 6 games but also losing the remaining trio of fixtures.
Meanwhile, Gennaro Gattuso’s good Coppa Italia record should be enough to haul Napoli back to winning ways. The former AC Milan boss took the Rossoneri to the 2018 final and then the semis in 2019, so we expect his taste for the cup to continue in Naples. Napoli have won five from six at home in this competition, while Perugia have had some high scoring defeats, losing five of their last seven cup trips and shipping 19 goals in those five losses. We’re tipping the hosts for a 3-2 victory on Tuesday.
