VAR SHOULD HAVE AWARDED ATALANTA PENALTY The VAR official should have intervened to award Atalanta a first-half penalty in their 1-1 draw at Inter Milan, Serie A's head of refereeing Nicola Rizzoli said on Monday. Replays suggested that Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez tripped Atalanta forward Rafael Toloi by wrapping his arm around the Brazilian's ankle, however the referee waved play on and the VAR did not intervene.
Life must take precedence. Indeed. Authorities across the world need to cancel football and do it now. Paul Pogba sets up coronavirus fundraiser Though some dinosaurs may say otherwise it is great that Paul Pogba doesn't just solely concentrate on football, otherwise perhaps he wouldn't have the awareness or means to set up a fundraiser that could provide crucial help to those who most need it.
Sitting in 14th place, they are five points clear of the relegation spot, a distance that is too close for comfort. Their victory over San Martin de San Juan may yet be the turning point of Barracas's season and be the instigator of a surge up the table. The likelihood is that the first 45 minutes of this encounter will be the more revealing half of football in terms of figuring out who's going to win.
In the first half, our passing was lacklustre and that was why we suffered," he said. The second half was better but not good enough for a Champions League match. Such constant public criticism is unusual as it could risk alienating either the players or the club leadership. Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte suggested earlier this season that Sarri's complaints might ring hollow now he is in charge of the team with Serie A's biggest spending power.
Interclube have drawn four of their last seven home games. Libolo have lost their last five away league fixtures. Only the top two teams in the league have been able to win an away league match at Interclube. Two teams that are struggling for form face each other this weekend in the Angolan Girabola.
In the world, everybody knows that is a penalty. And I say everybody, I mean everybody. It's not just my opinion, everyone in the world, everybody knows that is a penalty. And when I say everybody, I say everybody, everybody. Like Sheffield, the man of the match was not one of the players. But at Sheffield I could blame myself and the players, today I could not do that. BBC Match of the Day pundit Dion Dublin said: "It's clear because Harry is setting himself ready to head that ball and he gets fouled.
Watford have so far managed nine points and are placed rock bottom in the league while Manchester United have 25 points and are placed sixth on the standings. Watford have not had a good season and they go to this game winless in the last five matches.

We do see a threat that certain programmes will shut down or not see the same attention as before. The long-term consequences [of the pandemic] in terms of the equality and the diversity in our game could be much harder hit on the women’s side.

One is a stalling of the investment we’ve recently seen - we need to still keep building up investment in women's football to sustain professional development.
PSV have netted 23 goals at home and have conceded 9 goals while Zwolle have only scored 7 goals away from home and have conceded 18 goals, adding further weight to our prediction for a home win on Saturday. 100% of PSV’s home games and Zwolle’s away games have produced over 1.5 goals, so we can’t see there being any fewer than two goals scored on Saturday.
The new Spurs manager wants the 32-year-old Belgian to extend his contract, which will expire at the end of the season. He said: “I think a player will sign a contract when the club wants – I am the club, Mr Levy is the club – when the player wants, when the family wants, when the agent wants. If one of these parts doesn’t want it is very difficult to make it happen unless the player changes agent and gets an agent who also wants.
MADRID, Feb 29 (Reuters) - Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has said his side are in a delicate situation as they prepare to host arch-rivals Barcelona in a La Liga title showdown on Sunday amid a downward spiral of results which has left their season in limbo. Zidane's side held a three-point lead over Barca at the top of the table two weeks ago but defeat by the Catalans would leave them five points behind them with 12 games remaining.

Sixth-placed Sheffield United have begun to dream of a possible Champions League place but were frustrated as they were held to a 1-1 draw at home by lowly Brighton & Hove Albion. A poacher's goal from Brighton striker Neal Maupay cancelled out a peach of a strike from Enda Stevens.
Traditional derby in Budapest. Ujpest lost the last game against Ferencvaros and recently at Varda (0-1) and thus remains at risk of relegation at the third bottom.

Both Benfica and Zenit carry good runs to this game but Zenit have the edge, when it comes to Champions League action. Still, Zenit have to win this game to be sure of advancing to the second round, and the same applies to Benfica, though they may win and still fail to advance. While Benfica have the poorest defence in the group, they have a good scoring record in the Champions League, having scored in nine of their last 10. They have also conceded two or more in four of the last five Champions League matches. Meanwhile, Zenit have scored two or more in five of their last 10 matches, and the last two meetings between the two have produced over 2.5 goals. With this in mind, we believe a bet of over 2.5 goals will pass here.
petrocub are going to meet against sheriff in a match in the Moldovan Cup. This is the semifinal game and this game holds so much significance for both of the teams. Petrocub has not lost in the 6 games. Petrocub also managed to remained unbeaten in 19 of the 21 home games so far. Sheriff is also a good team and one of the best teams on the road. The team lost only once in the last 20 away games and as it is a cup game both teams will surely try to lose in the regular time. so, I think they will draw this game in the 90 minutes.

Premier League was "an absolute necessity". A thrilling win over Chelsea and a hard-earned point at Newcastle in their last two games have helped ease the threat of relegation, with three of their last five games against fellow strugglers Norwich (away), Watford (home) and, on the final day, Aston Villa (home). Former Chelsea and Scotland winger Pat Nevin, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "I was so impressed with West Ham's work rate against Chelsea - it was phenomenal.

And so, the show that is the Belarusian Premier League goes on. The very fact it is still going ahead means the league has gained worldwide attention in recent weeks, with Reuters reporting that the Belarus Football Federation has secured broadcasting deals with sports networks across 10 countries. It therefore felt like an opportune moment to take in my first all-Belarusian tie.

But, as is so often the case in recent games, Villa were unable to make the most of the few opportunities that came their way and once Liverpool went ahead, a 10th game without a win looked a formality. Villa's performance should give them heart but time is rapidly running out for them to pick up the points they need to survive. They are only a win away from climbing out of the bottom three but with tough fixtures against in-form Manchester United and Arsenal to come, they need to find a way to make the most of the few chances that come their way.

Real Pilar will play against Ituzaingo in the Argentina Primera C league. It is a match Where it is surprising to see such a high odds in both teams to score. Real pilar is a team that scored goals in 80% of matches at home and facing a team that scored goals in 85% of their away matches. Both teams are in similar kind of form so I think it will be a match where both team will go for draw rather than the victory. I expect this match to end in both teams sharing points good luck to all.
The Saints have managed to score in each of their last six trips away as well, although have kept just two clean sheets on the road this season. On Sunday they face a Newcastle side that have only kept two clean sheets from seven home games this term, so Hasenhuttl will be confident that his team can find the net.

La Liga initially took action after a player for the Real Madrid basketball team, which shares training facilities with the football club, tested positive for the virus. Tebas says La Liga is not contemplating a failure to complete the domestic campaign. Barcelona lead Real Madrid by two points at the top of La Liga, with 11 rounds of matches still to play. Spain is one of the countries worst hit by coronavirus, although the rate of new infections has been falling and it is now beginning to ease strict lockdown measures for some workers to help their economy.
It extended United's unbeaten run to 19 games in all competitions but Palace felt a real sense of injustice, furious that they were denied a penalty just before United took the lead when Wilfried Zaha tangled with Victor Lindelof, and then seeing a potential 55th-minute equaliser from Jordan Ayew ruled out by VAR for a very marginal offside. It meant Roy Hodgson's side slumped to their sixth consecutive league loss and their night was made worse when defender Patrick van Aanholt suffered a dislocated shoulder after trying to prevent Martial scoring United's second.

None of Davinson Sanchez, Aurier or Fernando Llorente improved the first team. In fact, Tottenham entered the following season a weaker proposition, and the season after that weaker again. Pochettino managed to stave off the stark descent the boardroom flailings should have set forth. However, the tail end of last season and the beginning of this season saw the team reap what the board had sown - they played and looked like a team on its last legs.
I know that Olympiacos in their recent 3 games have not played a game with over 2.5 goals and that may be one of the reasons why the odds for the over bet are so high here but I base my pick on the fact that once Lamia concedes in this fixture as their defense is really not that great compared to the attacking quality that Olympiacos has at its disposal they should open up and try to score as so far this season Lamia is undefeated at home.
Arsenal splashed out a club record £72m to sign Nicolas Pepe, Tottenham spent £53. Tanguy Ndombele while Manchester United brought in Harry Maguire from Leicester for £80m - a world record fee for a defender. Back in August, BBC Sport readers voted for who they thought was the signing of the summer and it was Pepe who came out on top. That's not quite worked out, and while there is time for Pepe to come good it's not going to happen before the end of 2019.
They have failed to score in just two of the last 10 matches and are unbeaten in the last four Turkish Cup games. Rizespor have no clean sheet in the last six cup games but have two losses and five wins in the last 10 Turkish Cup matches. Rizespor have beaten Galatasaray in just one of the last 16 meetings.
They see the potential of the squad, especially up front. I don't think we will see the likes of Sancho and Haaland playing together for many more months let alone years. But for the moment they are all there and, with the ball, they can be breathtakingly brilliant. But what is the point if you are going to concede goals. PSG have their own issues, some tactically, some mental and historical but Dortmund can't defend against average Bundesliga sides, so how can they defend against Neymar and the like?"Unless they completely overwhelm PSG in the first leg, which is not impossible.

It was only a few days ago Martial was substituted against Aston Villa and came off the field with a face like thunder. The best strikers hate being dragged off especially if they haven't scored. However what is becoming clear is the Manchester United striker is growing in confidence and seems to have the resolve to make the centre forward spot very much his own. Did you know? Martial has become the 10th player to score 50 Premier League goals for Man Utd.

In addition, Liverpool kept Brighton out in each of the club's last three meetings since May 2018, and we think the Reds have a great chance to keep their first clean sheet since September against the Seagulls this week.
I think that's done well for him throughout his career. You can see that with how his team's playing now. One of the main things that he used to say to us in the changing room was that he could put his dog on the pitch and it would work hard. He wanted that quality as well on top. Tactically he was very good at mixing it up. We'd play different ways in different games. Even though he had a preferred way of playing he'd change that if it wasn't working.

But after a turgid opening hour, the visitors suddenly clicked into life with three goals in nine minutes. Gabriel Martinelli fired home on his full Premier League debut, Nicolas Pepe rifled into the top corner and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang finished smartly to give Arsenal and interim boss Freddie Ljungberg a much-needed win.
