Cordeiro stepped down amid an outcry over the U. S.

Sadly, it's the latest in a string of high-profile incidents that make footballers, and the rest of the game, look a bit naff. Jack Grealish crashed his car. Kyle Walker hosted a sex party. Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle, Bournemouth and Norwich furloughed their staff, although the former tried to win credit for backtracking.
Lokomotiv Moscow's opening day win over Bayer Leverkusen in the reverse fixture is what separates the two sides at the moment but since then the Russian's haven't enjoyed a successful campaign with two losses against Juventus and a 2-0 defeat at home to Atletico. They've been averaged four shots on target in that time but only scored twice in what has been a disappointing run.
Both West Ham and Crystal Palace have not had good runs in the season and each of them will look at this as a winnable game. While West Ham have not done so well away from home, Palace have also not been the strongest at home. It is hard to pick the stronger of the two based on their performance this season but one thing that stands out is that both sides have scored in each of their last five meetings. Palace are among the teams with the least goals in the season so far, but West Ham have also not scored a lot. Both sides have five clean sheets in their last 15 matches and we expect that both will score here. Our pick on this game would be a 1-1 draw.
Arka is really not that solid on the road defeated in the cup for example with 2-1 away from home at lower league club Odra Opole, this while they have played 10 away games all season long and only won away at newly promoted LKS Lodz and away at really weak Wisla which is having its poorest season in the last 20 years if not more, and last round they were completely dominated away from home at Jagiellonia not even having a single shot on target in that game.

We're also predicting a 1-2 success for Sociedad in the correct score market, as they are averaging 1.73 goals per game this term, but have conceded in six of their eight away matches. On top of this, Valladolid have netted in four of their six home games, only failing to net against Real Madrid and Sevilla.
That is the task that would have to be put to Maurizio Sarri and Zinedine Zidane, two very different managers yet the two most likely men to have Pogba in their squad next season. Who knows what Raiola will advise, who knows what Pogba will decide and above all who knows what the future of the most mysterious of contemporary football's talents will be.
Tottenham's trophy cabinet has been left intact for the last 12 years, their most recent silverware the 2008 League Cup, while you would have to go back to 1991 when they last won this competition. It looks like they may well go another season without any success as this was their most realistic hope of claiming a cup and need to overturn a 1-0 first-leg loss to RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Mourinho sides are traditionally renowned for being strong defensively but they failed to hold on to their lead and have now kept just two clean sheets in 13 matches under the Portuguese manager at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Newcastle improved and after Miguel Almiron struck the post, they equalised when Fabian Schar fired home a volley from Andy Carroll's nod-down. But six minutes after setting up the equaliser, Carroll's mistake led to Everton's winner. Theo Walcott dispossessed the striker and played a pass out wide to Richarlison. The Brazilian sped down the right and delivered an excellent low cross for Calvert-Lewin, who slid in and scrambled home.
Then it's with things like this that people don't like the VAR, because with penalties like that everybody likes VAR. When it's a clear and obvious mistake everyone says 'welcome VAR'. It's clear, clear. So for me that's the VAR that I like and yesterday on the Son red card, the VAR that I hate. Rudiger was a victim of alleged racial abuse shortly after Son was sent off and the defender has called for the guilty fans to be punished.
Molodechno and Ostrovets will face each other in the upcoming match in the Second division in Belarus. Molodechno this season have the following results: 2W, 0D and 1L. Meanwhile Ostrovets have 4W, 0D and 0L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

We had a balance, an ecosystem between the different leagues in Europe and other continents, and now we have an intruder which might disrupt that balance," Tebas told reporters in London at the launch of La Liga's television channel. FIFA is supposed to be a regulatory body. But they have shifted from arranging calendars and organising World Cups to talking about having a Club World Cup every two years.
Premier League done deals: All the January transfer window ins and outs Young, who has been at United since 2011 and has made more than 260 appearances, is believed to be keen to join up with ex-teammates Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez under former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte. The manager is a long-time admirer of Young, and reportedly tried to sign him during his tenure at Stamford Bridge in 2017.
It's good for them to talk to a different pair of ears, and I try to reassure them, to keep them positive and focused, and keep their mind active. And it's not just players. I've spoken to other fitness coaches who've said 'I've just set up my business and now I'm going to lose everything'. People forget footballers are human beings'A Fifpro survey, published on Monday, showed that 22% of female players and 13% of male players have reported symptoms consistent with depression.

Beattie says he agrees to some extent, and that if a footballer playing at a good level came out as gay it "might give a lot of confidence to other people". Then again, football's very volatile," he added. I think with players' careers, being quite short, it adds an element of risk. Simone Pound, Head of Equality and Diversity at the Professional Footballers Association, says Beattie is a "pioneer in the game".
He's an Everton fan, so I don't feel that sorry for him," said Lawro. Referees' boss Mike Riley will present his season's review of the video assistant referee system on Friday at a Premier League shareholders' meeting. Riley, head of the Professional Game Match Officials Limited, will look at key match incidents and assess how the technology has been used in its first season in the English top flight.
We don't want artificial means of deciding who wins the league, who gets into the Champions League, who gets relegated and promoted. Ideally our players would have three or four weeks minimum to prepare for the first match back, but I accept there may have to be a squeeze on that timeframe. It might mean extra restrictions at our place of work .

Kafr Qasim may have been a newly promoted side at the start of this new season but not only did they not only finish the normal season in the relegation group but after winning their last two games played in the league and quite high scoring 4-2 win at M. Nazareth while just a few days ago they played away at Rishon where they had a player sent-off early in the game and went 1-0 behind but before half-time made it 1-1, and late in the game even won the game with 2-1 in the end to everyone's surprise.
Now is a good time to apply it to more offences. Would someone risk scything down a promising attack if they knew their team would face 10 minutes with 10 men? Would a defender take ages over a late throw-in if they could be penalised? Would a winger theatrically throw themselves to the floor, fixing a pleading gaze in the direction of the referee, if they knew they could be punished for diving? Even if there are just two minutes left in injury time, it would still make a player think twice before time-wasting or making a professional foul.
UEFA confirmed the Women's European Championship, scheduled for England in June and July 2021, would be re-scheduled, as would the Nations League Finals and Under 21 Euros. FIFA president Gianni Infantino said he would recommend that next year's expanded Club World Cup in China, which now clashes with the European Championship and Copa America, should be moved "later in 2021, in 2022 or in 2023".
Two La Liga victories from last 3 games have Levante sitting above many teams that aren’t supposed to be there, based on their players and overall quality. In the last round, they were defeated against Ath Bilbao in Basque with 2:1, but they are really playing good this season. An interesting fact is that they have netted five of their last 6 La Liga goals this term after the 65th minute. They also have trouble with injuries, as Coke and Rober will not play.
Anderlecht suspended the contracts of several staff members on Tuesday and chief executive officer Karel Van Eetvelt said players were being asked to show solidarity by giving up 30 days of wages. It will save us at least two million euros," he told Belgian broadcaster Sporza. The club considered also suspending the contracts of players to save costs but said it was a risky step.
Despite Ibrahimovic's comment, Materazzi did not suffer serious injury and played for Inter two weeks later.

With Spurs' performances and self-belief on the wane, we think a Watford team armed with plenty of momentum can take another big-name scalp this weekend, and with that considered, we think the Hornets are priced generously in the double chance market for Saturday's game.
We’re confident that both teams will score and over 2.5 goals will be produced on Sunday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 3-1 in favour of Ajax. The visitors arrive as the clear form favourites and with a good record against their hosts and have been scoring goals for fun of late, while Twente have lost three of their last five league games and haven’t beaten any of the current top three sides this season.
S. SUM struck a deal with FIFA for the U. S. ABC and ESPN to broadcast the games. Abbott said that era of deciding what MLS's new strategy was going to be was quite probably the most pivotal time in terms of laying the foundation for all of the growth the league has seen since. We had obviously tremendous optimism that the league would be successful," said Abbott.
The hosts are the weakest club in this second league level in Netherlands and lucky about the rules that no team relegates from this division just 8 points won and just one win in 17 league games with a record of 1-5-11, not that bad at scoring 22 goals but all clubs in this second league level are quite good at scoring just that few are good at defending and one of those clubs is Cambuur who conceded just 11 goals in 17 games and is sitting on 1st place.

Offensively, there hasn't been much wrong with the efforts of Oviedo this term, but they've let themselves down big time at the back. Only one team in the division has conceded more goals than Oviedo, who've conceded 33, while no other Segunda side has conceded more away goals. Javi Rozada's men have conceded 20 times on their travels, shipping two or more in seven out of 11. They've conceded two or more in each of their three away games against top-six teams.
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. He's done whatever he's been asked to do, whether that's collecting the ball and passing it forward, protecting that back four, spraying the ball around, he's been absolutely magnificent.

Angers were on the wrong side of a 2-0 scoreline in midweek as an efficient Marseille side put them to the sword at the Vélodrome. It was another poor performance from Les Scoïstes following their defeat to Nice last week and Stéphane Moulin will be hoping that this run of form doesn't get out of hand. Angers are generally rather solid at the back but have been conceding a few more chances and goals than normal in the last few weeks with five now shipped in their last two games.
Southampton v West Ham (17:30 GMT)I don't think West Ham have helped their manager Manuel Pellegrini with the noises that have been coming out of the club. Whoever is feeding stories to the media seems to be trying to make everyone aware that Pellegrini's future is being discussed, because he is not doing very well - so don't be surprised if he is not here next Sunday. You don't need to say any of that, because it is obvious he is under pressure.

Jurgen Klopp feared his Liverpool side would be denied the chance of winning the Premier League title when there were calls for the season to be voided because of the coronavirus pandemic. Play was halted in March with the Reds needing two wins from nine games to win a first top-flight title in 30 years. I became worried when people started talking about 'null and void' this season," said the Liverpool manager.
His awareness of the importance of keeping everyone involved is likely a consequence of his playing experience. Throughout his career, he was more used to sitting on the bench than being the starting goalkeeper and he never likes a player to think they have no chance of being part of the next match. For the BBC, Will Unwin takes a look at Nuno Espirito Santo’s background.

GOAL! Carles Perez scores after Griezmann drills the ball into the box aimed at Vidal and he and Godin battled for the ball which ricocheted into the path of the young striker who made no mistake. Good stop by Neto. Martinez takes a speculative ball down brilliantly jumping and stretching out his left foot and then drills a shot in that the reserve keeper pushes away at his near post.
We must look to the premier league in Egypt to find this match between EnPPi vs Al Mokawloon. A difficult task for the host ENPPI, because Mokawloon seems to be difficult to overcome, especially away. The away record of 6-0-1 with 9: 3 goals shows this clearly. The last away matches 3: 1 and three times 1:0! I believe in a point split here that could easily end 0-0 or 1-1. A match where both teams often play below 2.5 goals, but the odds of 1.55 are not good enough in my opinion. I believe in draw here in this match.
