Atletico Madrid forward Joao Felix has won the Golden Boy award for the best under-21 player in Europe. The 20-year-old Portugal international scored 18 goals for Benfica last season before a 126m euros (£113m) move to Atletico in the summer. He has scored two goals in 10 La Liga appearances for Atletico this term. Borussia Dortmund and England winger Jadon Sancho, 19, finished second with Bayer Leverkusen and Germany midfielder Kai Havertz, 20, third.
It was only after a change of approach from manager Brendan Rodgers that Leicester were able to capitalise on the break and record a seventh win in their last eight league matches. We knew it would be tough," Vardy said. Second half we came out the blocks a bit slow but as the game went on we progressed.
Kane donates Leyton Orient shirt sponsorship to good causesIn an interview for BBC Radio 5 Live's The Friday Football Social from 19:00 BST on Friday, Spurs striker Kane paid tribute to front-line workers during lockdown. From delivery drivers to care workers and doctors to shop workers, they have been amazing," Kane added. Everyone is doing so much work behind the scenes that not everyone sees. Last month Premier League players launched a "collective initiative" to help generate funds for the National Health Service and distribute them "where they are needed most".
The Reds go marching on. Did you know? As well as registering an assist for Oxlade-Chamberlain's opener, Henderson recorded the most successful passes in Liverpool's match with Bournemouth (140) - indeed, that was also his most passes ever made in a Premier League match. James Maddison: This might have been a completely different result had Aston Villa's medical team done their job. To let Tyrone Mings back on to the field after he had suffered what was a clear hamstring injury was suicide.
Today in Germany, the final match of the Champions League group stage of Group F. Borussia Dortmund will host Slavia Prague. The hosts will definitely be the favorite at this meeting. They currently have 7 points, the same as Inter Milan and take 3rd place. If they want to advance to the next round of the Champions League, they need not only win but also get as many goals as possible to have a more favorable goal balance than Inter. Slavia Praga is ranked last in the group with 2 points and has no chance to play in European cup. In the first match in Prague they lost to Borussia 0-2. I think the hosts will have a great opportunity to win, because Slavia has no motivation to fight for something in this match.
The Mirror report him as saying: "I play with Cristiano [Ronaldo] in the national team and if I played with Messi, being able to say that I played with the best in history would be a pleasure, but it is a complicated matter. Paper Round’s view: This quote seems mainly to be a player being polite when questioned about his ambitions, and one should not rule out the possibility of Lionel Messi joining Manchester City this summer when he can activate a break clause at Barcelona.
I had the same bet on opening day when Oakleigh with their new interesting signings for this amateur league level hosted Avondale who reached the final of the play-offs last season here in NPL Victoria, and Oakleigh took a 3-0 lead before an own goal pretty late made it 3-1 in their favor and so covered my over 3.5 goals bet, but their defense was not put under too much pressure because Avondale received an early red card and played most of the game in 10 men. Still Oakleigh conceded even so and I was not that impressed with their defense.
They needed a goal, though. And it refused to come. That was their undoing, their horror. Morelos got himself free again but his shot was met with a low save from Forster. Kristoffer Ajer had a header for Celtic that reminded you that they still existed in the game but the normal flow continued directly with more Rangers chances on the back of more Celtic errors forced from them by the blue storm. Morelos skipped away from Ajer down the right and, on the angle, fired directly at Forster.
Hamza Choudhury's first goal for the club was the icing on the cake for Leicester, who closed the gap to Liverpool at the top of the table to 10 points. ANCELOTTI TASTES DEFEAT Manchester City stayed one point behind Leicester after handing new Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti his first Premier League defeat since he took charge of the Merseyside club.
Stoke go to the game on two wins, a draw and two losses in their last five matches. They have six wins, seven losses and four clean sheets in their last 15 matches. Stoke have scored in nine of their last 15 matches and in five of those, they have scored two or more goals. They have conceded two or more goals in seven of the 15 matches and eight of their last 15 matches have produced over 2.
He said his story was "all too familiar for families in England". Speaking to BBC Breakfast, he said: "It's written from the heart and it's about how my life was at the moment - the letter is to open up and let people understand the impact on families and to know I've done the right thing. What families are going through now, I've once had to go through that - and it's very difficult to find a way out.
The Owls are coming into this clash fourth in the defensive charts, so we don’t expect this clash to be all that open. The Owls are likely to put up a fight at the back, having conceded a goal per game so far this term. They are likely to find it tough going up against this Leeds’ defence, with the hosts the masters of low scoring games at home so far.
Last two games between these two finished 2-1 for home team last season. Slutsk is now top team on table with 4-1-1 score and 12-8 goal difference what makes more than 3 goals average per game. They have all players available for this game and in last game suspended Obrazov will be back.
The bizarre situation has come about because the European champions are in Qatar ahead of Wednesday’s Club World Cup semi-final against Mexico’s Monterrey. But a fixture clash means another Liverpool team, made up of youth players, will be facing Aston Villa around 24 hours earlier. U23s boss Neil Critchely will oversee the match at Villa Park "It’s a great opportunity for all of us, myself included," said Critchley.
Given the performances of both teams, especially in their respective home and away games, a bet on the home win is hard to resist, particularly at the current prices. Reims have been very solid at home, which bodes well ahead of a match against a Montpellier side that has struggled offensively on the road. If we look at the shot data, Reims become the only team to side with, as they've conceded an average of just 2.22 shots on target at home, while their average shot supremacy is +3.78. On the road Montpellier's is -3.85. The visitors also concede an average of 4.00 shots on target on their travels.
For a long time, Zielinski has been talking about a contract renewal in Naples, but speeches that have not yet led to a "white smoke" so the failed agreement has fuelled the rumors of a possible departure. Ancelotti's arrival on the Toffees' bench could also change the future of Kean. Director of football Marcel Brands has an excellent relationship with Kean and his family and would hardly want to deprive himself of the player, especially with the eventual landing of Ancelotti, who is so capable of growing young talents, just as he did with Hernan Crespo, Kakà, Andrea Pirlo, Kingsley Coman.

It took eight or nine days. People ask why I'm not in Belgium. It's because I'm self-isolating in England. I live here so I'm here with my kids and wife. City were second in the league standings and leading Real Madrid 2-1 after the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie before the season was suspended.
The Premier League is set to resume in June but with one enormous difference - no fans will be allowed inside the stadiums. For match-going supporters this creates a dilemma. How can you follow your team and how do you go about recreating the matchday rituals and traditions that are, for some, as much a part of going to a game as the actual football itself?Are you planning online watching parties with friends? Will you be having a virtual trip to the pub before kick-off? How do you intend to discuss the game during and afterwards while lockdown restrictions remain in place? We want to hear what you intend to do on matchdays to get you as close to your tried and tested routines as possible.
City's problem is that they are being judged by their own high standards, which were far beyond anything any team had achieved throughout the history of the English game. In addition to their accumulation of points, City have also won the last two EFL Cups and last season's FA Cup, when a 6-0 win over Watford at Wembley equalled the record for the biggest final victory in the history of a competition that stretches back to 1872.

Dynamo Dresden and Stuttgart will face each other in the upcoming match in the Second Bundesliga. Dynamo Dresden this season have the following results: 6W, 6D and 13L. Meanwhile Stuttgart have 14W, 6D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
We’re expecting the Citizens to get back to winning ways here, largely because of the ineptitude of the Arsenal team right now. The Gunners have only won three of their Premier League home games and come into this having lost their last four top flight meetings with Manchester City.
People think they don't care," Cowley told BBC Radio Leeds. They do care, they care a lot, they were nervous before the game, you could sense that. You try to help them with that, of course, that's our responsibility, but we played with the handbrake on and didn't move the ball quick enough. Cowley joined Huddersfield, who were relegated from the Premier League last season, in early September with the club second-from-bottom of the Championship.
STOCKHOLM, Nov 29 (Reuters) - Unai Emery's sacking as Arsenal coach means Freddie Ljungberg takes over on an interim basis at the club where he made his name and the former midfielder will be relishing the chance show fans what he can do. Brought to the club from Halmstad in 1998, Ljungberg went on to score 46 goals in 216 games for the Gunners, displaying his combative style as well as several punk-inspired hairstyles in that time.

At least this match gave us the awareness that if we play as a team, we can give great performances," he said. He was pleased by the side's "willingness to suffer" as well as their quality against Barcelona. He added: "There is regret that we drew but, really, not much changes between 1-0 and 1-1 -- we know that whatever happens we have to put in a great performance there.
Wolves are far more reliable, as in they are a very consistent side. They are also on a very good run, and have not lost any of their past nine Premier League games - I would be surprised if they don't make that 10. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Bobby's prediction: 2-1Why Bobby is not backing the Hammers: This is controversial! On Saturday, I was thinking that if West Ham lose against Chelsea, my decision is easy and I am absolutely going for a West Ham defeat, just based on analysis - not what I'd like to happen.
Now that plan has come to fruition, and in April 75. Congratulations and best of luck to all involved. IN OTHER NEWS What a week Odion Ighalo’s having.

The visitors will understandably fancy their chances against a Watford side who are yet to win at Vicarage Road this season, and who’s last Premier League win at home came all the way back at the start of April. For this reason, these odds for a Burnley Win or Draw Double Chance look an attractive proposition.
TALKING POINT Is Ole Gunnar Solskjaer for real (again)? When he took over at United on an interim basis a year ago, a brilliant run of victories for Solskjaer secured him the job full-time. Since then it’s been a mixed bag of results for the club, leading to much sneering criticism that it was a sentimental decision that over-promoted the former Molde and Cardiff City manager just because he was a club legend.
This is the semi-finals of the Italian Cup and Inter will play at home against Napoli. It is also the first meeting, so everything is not decided in this match, but I still think Inter is looking for a positive result. Inter made an incredible turn in the derby against Milan last Sunday, winning 4-2. They were down 0-2 at halftime.
Honved will host MOL Vidi in the OTP Bank Liga of Hungry on Tuesday. Honved are currently sixth in the table and lost last game to Ujpest while playing on road. However they won last home game to Debrecen by 3-1. But they just lost one of the last six matches. While MOL Vidi are currently second in the table and best performing away team before this fixture. They are on unbeaten run of six matches. MOL Vidi also has Excellent head to head record against Honved , won 7 of the last 8 head to head matches. So MOL Vidi can win this .
Rapid Vienna could not make any result away from home at Salzburg in their first game in this group stage but only lost 2-0 that game with Salzburg later winning with 6-0 away from home at Hartberg and also winning with 5-1 away at Sturm Graz their next two games, but at home in their only game so far after the break Rapid Vienna won with no less than 4-0 against Sturm Graz and in fact all their games played at home this year they won by at least 2 goals difference reason why I also take this handicap at excellent odds as well.
The two Ashgabat clubs for the local derby, normally inconsistent when it comes to under or over 2,5 goals. Recent results and mathematics tells us we should back the under at 1,67. The 1st match this year at FC Ashgabat Stadium came up as under 2,5 goals the result being 0 x 1 for the visitors. If we go back to last season we have at Kopetdag's one under and one over by one goal, both wins for the home side, 2 x 1 and 1 x 0. Kopetdag comes from a high score win away at Energetik's and FC Asgabat 1 x 1 at home with Sagadam. Hoping to see a narrow one goal win here by 1 x 0 or even a 1 x 1 draw
With so much at stake, we’re predicting a tense, low scoring encounter in the final fixture on Matchday 15. We’re only at the end of November, but it already feels like make or break time for Diego Simeone and his revamped Atletico Madrid side. A win against Barca this weekend puts them firmly back in the title hunt, but a defeat almost certainly leaves them with too much to find even at this early stage.
Twenty-eighth round of the Israel Championship and my suggestion for this match is a draw, I see that the two teams are well balanced in the tournament, the Hapoel Tel Aviv team in their last Three matches have won two and drawn one, and the Beitar team Jerusalem has also won two in the last three matches and drawn one.

He doesn’t specifically name Manchester United. He doesn’t need to. Liverpool and Manchester City are too good, Chelsea hate anything with a whiff of north London, Arsenal are being guided into mid-table by their new saviour and Spurs inexplicably sacked the best thing to happen to them after a 1-1 draw against next season's European champions Sheffield United.
It had been a rocky six weeks or so for Ipswich, who appeared to be going nowhere fast, but Paul Lambert's men made a timely return to winning ways on Saturday afternoon, beating Accrington by four goals to one.
That increased to 334 the following season, and there was a further 43% increase in racist abuse alone during 2018-19. Racism will never stop," says Gibbs-White. I think because racism is talked about a lot more, this is what racist people thrive off. They step out of line and try to create a scene or make a statement. Despite that, the 19-year-old is hopeful about the future. He adds: "With more awareness, the more it should die down.

Bayern Munich need two wins from their last four games to win an eighth straight Bundesliga title after hitting back to beat Bayer Leverkusen. Hansi Flick's side have lost just once in their past 21 games in all competitions but did it the hard way after trailing at Leverkusen.
