Football is suspended in the UK and across most of world because of the coronavirus pandemic - but the game rolls on in Belarus. The Belarusian Premier League rarely gets a mention in normal circumstances yet it is attracting attention from foreign fans as one of the few places around the globe - and the only place in Europe - where football is still being played. On Saturday, there were six top-flight games in the eastern European country including the derby between FC Minsk and Dinamo Minsk watched by a capacity 3,000 crowd in Belarus' capital.
I fell on the floor when that happened. That is one of the greatest things I have seen on TV. You don't see a manager lose it like that. Shearer: "Sir Alex Ferguson had got to him. Newcastle had a 12-point lead at the top of the table in February and Manchester United slowly but surely chipped away and you can imagine the pressure they were under. He fell for it hook, line and sinker in the interview - "he's still got to go to Middlesbrough and get something".
Writing ahead of their Sunday evening match with Parma, Inter are third in the table, seven points behind Lazio in second and 11 behind leaders Juventus. Brescia, meanwhile, are bottom of the table, eight points from safety. The visitors are winless in 13 Serie A games and unlikely to end that run against an Inter side undefeated in 18 of their last 20 games.
That’s long gone. Now, if you want a new physio, you go through 300 applications. That’s how, at Arsenal, bit by bit, I felt the club slip away from me. Video - Ljungberg – ‘The way to change the atmosphere at Arsenal is to play better football’01:03 The current frontrunners for the vacant managerial position at the Emirates Stadium are Carlo Ancelotti, Mikel Arteta, Massimiliano Allegri, Rafael Benitez and Patrick Vieira.

Marseille have been impressing in attack recently with five goals in their last three games but there is still work to be done in a number of areas. Firstly, the defence is still their Achilles' heel as they have just two clean sheets in their last ten games, both coming against teams in the bottom five. Secondly, their away form has been pretty disastrous in recent weeks compared to their performances at home. Villas-Boas' men are unbeaten in their last six games at the Stade Velodrome (W4+D2) but are winless in their last four games on the road (L3+D1).
Some 67 people have died and 1,600 have been infected, with Greece so far not suffering the brunt of the virus like Italy and Spain where deaths have exceeded 25,000 combined. We as Super League understand the critical situation and we are in uncharted waters. We cannot risk speaking about dates because we have an unprecedented situation," Lysandrou added.
We have seen some of the biggest clubs in the world such as Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Juventus take steps to reduce their costs. Yesterday, having already taken steps to reduce costs, we ourselves made the difficult decision – in order to protect jobs – to reduce the remuneration of all 550 non-playing directors and employees for April and May by 20% utilising, where appropriate, the Government’s furlough scheme.

You need to stroke a few egos from time to time. Ancelotti can do that. Former Real Madrid and Bayern Munich coach Ancelotti is making a return to English football 8-1/2 years after he was sacked by Chelsea. He guided Chelsea to the Premier League title and FA Cup in his first season in 2009-10, but former Everton striker Tony Cottee said Ancelotti will need more time for what will be a rebuilding job at Goodison Park.
England 2-1 Mexico, World Cup - 2015 To score my first goal at a World Cup with my head was pretty funny as I'm useless usually. It was important in the end because Mexico got one back so we needed that two-goal cushion. We had lost the first game in the tournament and confidence wasn't where it had been. I remember having the conversation with our manager Mark Sampson that I wasn't going to start the first two games.
I see good chances that this game shall end up in a 2-0 win for the guests, and I say this because Smolevichi played in the first league two seasons ago and back than when they hosted Soligorsk which is season after season one of the top clubs in this country they lost that time with 2-0. Also last season in the 2nd league level when Smolevichi finished inside the top 2 places and gained direct promotion to the first league they met Soligorsk also at home in the cup and also lost that game quite easy with 2-0 in the end.

Celtic will be out for revenge this weekend when they play host to Livingston in the Premiership. Three of the last six meetings between these two clubs have produced over 2.5 goals. Four of Celtic’s last six matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Three of Livingston’s last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. All of Livingston’s away games in the Premiership this season have produced over 2.5 goals. Both teams have a good goal scoring record and I expect them to find the net here. Celtic is in amazing form right now and they can win it as well. Over 3 goals is expected.
Odds are already dropping and should be even lower by tomorrow when this game does start as the guests are clear bottom in the league at this moment as they have no less than 8 losses in a row and already played Brisbane Roar twice losing first here at this stadium with 2-0 while at home they also got beaten in a more recent game between the two with 1-0 in the end. And morale must be really low in the visitor's camp after so many defeats usually with plenty of goals conceded as well from them for example losing 6-2 at Western United or 3-1 at home with Wellington Phoenix in their last two league games.
It was only Ogkmpoe's second league goal of the season, both of them against Celtic. The lead did not flatter Accies but things turned against them in the space of 90 seconds. Leigh Griffiths, who had earlier escaped with a yellow card when treading on Sam Woods' chest, got goal-side of 17-year-old Hamilton and then tumbled as the defender desperately tried to recover the situation, wrapping his arms around the striker.
Should that be the case, former Germany boss Silvia Neid arguably has the strongest CV of any out-of-contract European boss. In an 11-year spell as Germany boss, the 55-year-old won the 2007 World Cup as well as an Olympic gold and two European Championships, with a side that frequently enjoyed victories over England. Elsewhere, Sarina Wiegman is in credit after guiding the Netherlands to 2017's European title and then 2019's World Cup final, but England may prefer to look for a coach who is not currently employed by another association.
After three rounds without victory, Crystal Palace will play their next match against West Ham United. Many things will depend from host captain Luka Milivojevic in midfield, but their attackers Benteke, Zaha and Ayew, must improve their efficiency. Guaita will be on the goal line, Kouyate and Tomkins will be central defenders, and if host score a goal, I believe they can win three points. West Ham also have problem with efficiency, and they will mostly rely on counterattacks in this duel. Crystal Palace will control this duel, and with a right tactic they can win in this duel without much problems.
That's why it's important for the regulations to continue as they are and no-one tries to make the most of the circumstances and not pay. Henry's message to Norwich U23 player Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has sent a video to Norwich City U23s striker Shae Hutchinson, who suffers from Alport syndrome and is therefore classed as highly vulnerable due to the pandemic.
Meunier is out of contract with the French team in the summer and was a target of Unai Emery's when he was still in charge of the Gunners. His summer contract expiry does throw in some doubt his future at any club, as the season looks set to continue through June and July due to coronavirus.

The protests started up again last week after a police truck ran over and killed a fan of the Colo Colo club following a match against Palestino. The killing prompted fans from rival clubs to unite in protest against what they say is brutal treatment of the Chilean police, known as the Carabineros.

Thirty-four minutes, 34 penalties and then I had to rebuild the penalty spot afterwards. It was mad," Taunton chairman Kevin Sturmey, who doubles up as head groundsman, told BBC Somerset. We had two opportunities to win it on penalties 32 and 33 and missed them both; one would have been signalled a wide in cricket. View more on twitterThe 34 kicks might equal the English record, but it's small fry compared to the longest shootout anywhere.
But are they on course for the best season by a newly-promoted team?And who is the most-fouled player in the Premier League and what unwanted statistic do Newcastle own? BBC Sport examines the key stats of the weekend. De Bruyne to deliver best yet?"Not since I saw Zinedine Zidane dominate the European Championship final in 2000 have I seen such a complete performance. BBC Sport pundit Garth Crooks summed it up - De Bruyne put in a brilliant display at Emirates Stadium on Sunday as he almost single-handedly destroyed the Gunners.
The visitors managed to put an end to five successive league defeats last time out as they saw off Rotherham with a 1-0 win, but that goal was just the third time they have managed to find the back of the net in their last six outings. While their offensive record is not as bad as their hosts, they know that they need to find the back of the net on a more regular occurrence if they are to pull themselves to safety.

The two sides eventually returned and the game eventually ended in a 2-2 draw, unlike Bayern and Hoffenheim, who played out the last 10 minutes uncompetitively in protest at the banners in the stands. There have been plenty of protests against Hopp across the weekend's action in Germany, with the 79-year-old businessman having become a lightning rod in the country after spending big to help Hoffeinheim transform themselves from a local amateur club to Bundesliga side with regular European qualification.
You feel if they don't win the Champions League then it's not a good season. But if they do win it, it's a great season," Wright told BBC Radio 5 Live. I would start saving players for it because that's what City have got to start focusing on. Pep Guardiola, who won two Champions League titles at Barcelona, has not managed to take City beyond the quarter-finals of the competition.
Chelsea say Hudson-Odoi "displayed symptoms similar to a mild cold on Monday morning" and stayed away from the the training ground. The club added that the player is "doing well and looking forward to returning to the training ground as soon as it is possible". Chelsea's full squad has gone into isolation. The Gunners have closed their training ground and club staff who had recent contact with Arteta will also self-isolate.
They look to get back in winning ways when traveling to 17th placed West Ham United. City have conceded seven goals in their last two games and have shown they are still a fair bit behind Liverpool and Manchester City. City are still a dangerous side though and up against the lesser opposition of West Ham are likely to fare much better.
Two months into the following season, he suffered another ACL injury - this time to his right knee - after coming on as a substitute in an EFL Cup game against Tottenham. Surgery included, it cost him the rest of 2016-17 and ultimately his big chance with the Reds. He would start only three more games before moving to hometown club Southampton, initially on loan for a season, but with an obligation that a four-year permanent deal would follow in the summer of 2019.
The outbreak has already had a significant impact on Chinese football and sport more generally.
