Brady: I don't know how Premier League football can return - Paper Round Liverpool great Dalglish tests positive for coronavirus Renault furloughs 'vast majority' of F1 team to end of May The 2018 Giro d'Italia: Re-live the greatest Grand Tour of the decade this week on Eurosport 09:10 - West Ham announce wage deferrals West Ham United became the second Premier League club to announce wage deferrals for their players to cope with the financial challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic.
There is also the potential for a play-off involving teams in fifth, sixth and seventh to determine a European place and address concerns about potentially meaningless fixtures. The second and third tier can decide on nature of their split. Budge also pledged to share Covid-19 testing facilities and resources with clubs across the divisions to help cover the costs of enabling players to return to training and playing matches.
The joint statement added: "We love our country and we have taken this opportunity to hold it to a higher standard. It is our duty to demand that the liberties and freedoms this nation was founded upon are extended to everyone. US star Megan Rapinoe, who has opted out of the tournament, said on social media: "You love to see it. You love to see these women using their voice, demanding better for America, and for black people and people of colour.
LASK and St Polten will face each other in the upcoming match in the Austrian Bundesliga. LASK this season have the following results: 14W, 3D and 2L. Meanwhile St Polten have 3W, 7D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
In an email seen by BBC Sport, Giles Watling has written to other members of the DCMS committee calling for an evidence session on the claims. He said the issue was "even more relevant now within the context of the likely takeover of Newcastle United by a consortium backed by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund". Having spoken to DCMS chair Julian Knight, he added that it was "particularly pressing as the government refused to comment on the takeover to the committee recently" and said the hearing "ideally should be with the secretary of state [Oliver Dowden] and representatives from the Premier League".
Who scored the most goals? Who kept the most clean sheets? Which player was the league's top shooter/passer/tackler? Oh, who cares?BBC Sport ignores the information you can find elsewhere and digs into some of the more interesting stats of the longest, strangest Premier League season on record. The more things change. Before the Premier League's restart on 17 June there was much interest in how the 100-day hiatus might affect the game - would we see a boat-load of goals, a greater number flying in late in matches against knackered defences or a huge increase in away wins like in Germany? Off the field things were certainly different, with stringent safety measures in place and testing twice a week to combat coronavirus, as well as eerie, empty stands on matchdays.
Perhaps surprisingly, it turns out the significance of these late-season fixtures is actually fairly minimal. Looking at title winners, Champions League qualifiers and relegation, an average of just over one of those changes every season during the run-in - that's 11 differences in 10 years, and only two in the past four. So what has changed at the top? In the past 10 Premier League seasons, the leaders have changed three times between gameweek 29 and the final table.
This is a chance to get a win though with a home match against the New York Knicks who have a season record of 4-19. That's left them bottom of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference. Portland could do with a win to boost their outside chances of making it into the postseason. They are currently 12th in the Western Conference, a couple of wins behind the Phoenix Suns.
While Leipzig have enjoyed life at the Red Bull Arena of late, Cologne have struggled away from home this season. They have lost nine of their 11 Bundesliga away games. Furthermore, Cologne have also conceded at least two goals in nine of their last 11 Bundesliga away games. Cologne have also been struggling at the back in recent weeks. They have conceded at least two goals in each of their last four competitive games.
The ball balloons up into the air and from 25 yards out Kovacic drills a low volley into the bottom corner. This game is very much still on! 59’ BIG CHANCE! Could that have been the game? Walcott escapes from Kante down the right and bursts into the area unchallenged. He has a chance to square it to Richarlison but shoots instead, and Kepa gets a strong hand on the ball to parry it clear.
He’s young, he’s brilliant, and he’s doing the business for Dortmund’s first team. There aren’t many teams he wouldn’t make better, in the Premier League and beyond. Dortmund are going to get paid. On your marks, get set … Ziyech! Getting ahead of the transfer game are Chelsea, who are reportedly taking care of their summer business before the clocks have even gone back.
The Blues are understood to believe Arsenal were one of the chief instigators behind a collective approach to Cas by eight clubs in the Premier League - Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham, Leicester, Wolves and Burnley - asking them not to agree to any delay in the European suspension pending City's appeal. As it turned out, the delay was not required because the case was decided before the end of the season.
Kilmarnock got back to their winning ways last weekend as they easily beat a wounded Hearts side 3-0 at Rugby Park and taking 3 points for the first time since the end of October and the club now sits in 5th place in the table.
De Rossi, who won the World Cup with Italy in 2006, surprised colleagues and fans alike when he moved to Buenos Aires in July to play for a club he said he had always admired. However, he was dogged by injury and made only seven appearances for the Argentine giants and scored one goal. The 36-year old told reporters he would take some time off before studying to become either a coach or director.
Apoel had an excellent run in the Europa League qualifying for the next round and last week they defeated Sevilla at home in the last match. Now they have to focus on the league in which they are only on the 5th place, although they have 4 games in hand. At home Apoel has a 3-1-0 record so far and have not conceded a goal so far.
Now in lockdown, the focus has switched to podcasts, quizzes, painting tifos and encouraging fans to work on their terrace chants. The supporter culture here is pretty tight knit," said Hooper. We tried to get organised and prepared for this - we want to put a best foot forward with this fresh new start. Ice hockey team Ottawa Senators, who play in the NHL, are the highest profile sports team in the city but Ottawa could soon witness a new Atletico flavour.
Liverpool are currently looking lethargic, one of the last words that could previously be attributed to them as their machine-like efficiency, power and skill overpowered opponents with relentless regularity. There was growing frustration too, as exemplified by substitute James Milner's hack at Pedro as he escaped down the wing late on and Sadio Mane's angry exchange with Cesar Azpilicueta seconds before the final whistle.
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.

Tottenham Hotspur Spurs seem to be in a small crisis this season, looking nothing like the quality team they have been in the past. While there are a lot of areas that they need to improve, a good full-back could be an immediate fix. Serge Aurier is error-prone and caused spurs to concede more than once this season, and the left side isn’t great either.
The serious thigh injury to Jean-Philippe Gbamin, the giant Ivory Coast midfielder signed from Mainz for £25m in the summer, was also crucial. He was earmarked as the replacement for the influential Idrissa Gueye, sold to Paris St-Germain, but managed only one league start before suffering an injury in training that required surgery and will keep him out until January. And while Brands has rightly received great credit for landing the likes of France full-back Lucas Digne, Yerry Mina and Gomes from Barcelona, as well as the Kean coup, there are still large holes in Everton's team that have been left unattended.
St-Maximin: This was a professional and disciplined performance by Newcastle United. When this season started, the team and their manager got a roasting for their lack of managerial leadership and absence of ambition on the field. They reacted to that stinging criticism and retained that spirit against Sheffield United. I thought the Blades might have the edge, as it was their second game in a week, but the Magpies were always the better side, even before the enforced departure of John Egan.
Hearts also claimed the SPFL had exerted "undue influence" on the vote, but the league has said it has acted "wholly properly" at every stage of the process and added Rangers have yet to produce the evidence to back up their claims. I'm listening to ex players, pundits, I'm reading media and it's [the SPFL] getting absolutely battered from pillar to post the way it's handled things in the past couple of days," Gerrard added.

Most of them fell to striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who has been in blistering form recently. However, if Calvert-Lewin wants to be among the best strikers in the country, a return of one goal in five chances just won't cut it. Did you know? Aubameyang has been directly involved in 38 goals in 38 Premier League appearances on Sundays (32 goals, six assists). Olivier Giroud: It may have been his first league start since the end of November, but Giroud doesn't seem to have lost his desire to score goals or lead the Chelsea front-line.
I know odds are not great on this over 2.5 goals bet but then again the first leg was quite cagey affair in Maldives and it still had 3 goals in it all of those goals being scored in the second half of the game and the hosts lost it 2-1 than, so Bengaluru needs to be scoring some goals today if they are to qualify and certainly have quality in their ranks winning last round no less than 9-1 at home against the champions from Bhutan Paro, although Maziya is a better side.
They are by no means over the line, with Bielsa’s side enjoying a similarly strong run of results back in December last year, which seemed to be the perfect blend of tactical familiarity and match fitness. Now Leeds are peaking once again, so we expect them to hurt a Hull side who have had their problems this term.
Oxford if I remember right made it to the Quarter-Finals of the League Cup competition this season where they hosted top side Manchester City and to their fan's delight did score a goal but lost the game 3-1 in the end. In the league they have scored a lot of goals this season in both home and away games have some big wins like 6-0 at Lincoln, several 3-0 wins for them at home as well as they are fighting for promotion.
These two sides meet on Saturday with very little between them. The duo are both in the Championship’s bottom half, with Hull in 14th and Birmingham two points back in 15th. They’re stranded between the relegation scrap and the playoff race, leaving them in an awkward position.
Smith said "a reaction was needed" prior to kick-off in Burnley and his players responded, creating goalscoring opportunities in both halves and deserving the three points. The Villa boss mixed things up at Turf Moor, starting with a back three and playing Grealish in a more central role going forward and it paid off. Grealish was at the heart of everything positive for Villa, playing three key passes and being involved in both goals.
There’s a huge difference between where these two sides are right now. The visitors have fallen down the table, as Napoli have won only one of their last 10 league games (D5 L4): their worst run since 2010. Meanwhile, it’s their worst start on the road to a season in eight years, as they’ve earned only 13 points away from home in Serie A so far.
But it took Werner only 11 minutes to find the target, breaking the deadlock with a cool near-post finish from Konrad Laimer's low cross. Yussuf Poulsen and Marcel Sabitzer added further goals against a hapless Mainz side before Werner made it 4-0 from close range, and he completed his hat-trick with an expertly-taken lob late on. Schalke's struggles continueWhile Leipzig's win means they are back in the Champions League places, Schalke's slide down the table continued after an error-strewn display.
St Mirren was able to finally put an end to their 3-game losing streak over the weekend as they narrowly defeated Ross County 2-1 in the dying minutes of the match and pulled away from the relegation zone.
Charlton still have a respectable 23 points to their name, but they’re reaching a crossroads. The Addicks are now seven points shy of the playoffs, but only seven clear of relegation. They could go either way from here, while the fact that they’re down to 17th suggests they are in a tough position. Manager Lee Bowyer needs something from his team to arrest the dip, but their defensive concerns could prevent that from happening.
I have used a lot of players (in qualification). I wanted to fast track young players and give them experience and expose them to situations they would not have been in before," he added. The majority of them have responded brilliantly. Now we have a huge pool of players. If everyone is fit, it's a big problem. I want them all to be fit. Though Euro 2020 is more than 100 days away, Giggs says he has a 23-man squad in his mind.
City could draw this match and still finish in the top four but only if Chelsea lose at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers. They had looked good for a return to the Champions League going into 2020. They were third behind Liverpool and Manchester City but their form has slipped in recent months. A form guide for the past 10 league games has them down in 14th with only 12 points earned.
Although Manchester United were lacklustre, Arsenal were outstanding in the first half as Pepe tore through the opposition defence. But there were also good displays in midfield from Mesut Ozil - who covered the most ground of all the Arsenal players, running 11. Lucas Torreira and Granit Xhaka, who Arteta claimed would stay at the club despite being linked with Hertha Berlin. Luiz told BT Sport: "It was great.

Serie A said in a statement on Sunday that the game at Genoa's Luigi Ferraris stadium would be rescheduled for May 13, the same date as the five other matches which were called off on Saturday. The decision came after Giovanni Toti, the president of the Liguria region where Genoa is located, said the Sampdoria-Verona game could only be played if it was behind closed doors.
We have always had quality up front - we had Fernando Torres, we had Luis Suarez - when we fell fell short in the league before, but that is not enough on its own. Is this title the start of a spell of Liverpool dominance? Big Zuu hopes so but he is not convinced. I think we are away from those times when teams could win three in a row like Manchester United did. I obviously hope we can go on to win it again and again but you can never count out City, because if they sort out their defence they still have one of the best attacks there is.
Perth Glory had a tricky start to their A-League campaign, picking up just one win in their opening seven games and struggling to break into the top six. A 3-0 win over Melbourne City was the turning point of their season though, and they’ve now won 4 games in a row, rising to 2nd in the table.
The feedback I'm getting is very positive. When we don't win they know the reasons why. Chelsea boss Frank Lampard, meanwhile, said there was "nothing imminent" with respect to bringing in new players this month but did not brush aside rumours linking PSG striker Edinson Cavani with the London outfit.
The Mariners, bottom of the 11-team league, are in danger of anchoring the division for the third season in a row. They are seven points from safety and if results continue as they are, they won't get out of this jam in a hurry. Melbourne City, meanwhile, hold the second spot, which would see them enter the Finals series at the semi-final stage.
