Antoine Griezmann sent the Catalans ahead in the 34th minute with a cool finish with the outside of his left foot after being played in by an outstanding pass from Lionel Messi, while Sergi Roberto doubled Barca's lead five minutes later. Getafe pulled a goal back in the 66th with a stunning volley from striker Angel Rodriguez, who almost snatched an equaliser but was denied by Barca keeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen, who then flew to the floor to prevent Jaime Mata netting on the rebound.
Italy football federation (FIGC) head Gabriele Gravina said on Saturday he hoped teams could begin training in May -- provided players tested negative for the new coronavirus -- with the first games possibly coming at the end of that month. However, Giovanni Rezza, director of infectious diseases at the Italian National Institute of Health (ISS), disagreed.
Adana Demirspor is ranked 7th on the list with 42 points. Teachers and coach Cüneyt Dumlupınar can still compete for a promotion ticket. So they need to play well for the rest of the season to nurture that goal. Osmanlıspor's visit in the 28th round is not a difficult challenge for Adana Demirspor. With the home team in bad shape, it is unlikely that the visitors will win very hard. Looking at the Asian rafters in the previous confrontations between the two teams, Adana Demirspor is highly appreciated when accepting more than 1 goal at home. And Osmanlispor only evaluate the bargain to lose with home advantage. But the important thing this fulcrum helped them get the victory.
Heerenveen’s home games and Heracles’ away games both produce an average of over 2 total goals per match, which ties in well with our prediction for both teams to score and the scoreline to end 2-1 on Saturday. Both teams scored in 78% of Heerenveen’s home games and in 62% of Heracles’ away games, adding weight to our prediction for this weekends’ clash.
A game the visitors had in the palm of their hand was all of a sudden up for grabs. The ebb and flow made for compulsive viewing but still the chances mainly fell Celtic's way. A Christie cross almost made its way straight into the net. A break involving Christie and Jonny Hayes then set up Edouard. His fourth big chance of the game - an instinctive first-time toe-poke - brought out the third big save from Johnsson.
Peters was captain when Spurs repeated the feat two years later as Norwich City were beaten in the final. Peters won the Uefa Cup with Spurs in 1972 when Wolverhampton Wanderers were beaten in an all-English final, but tasted defeat in the final two years later when they lost to Feyenoord in a tie that was overshadowed by crowd violence. He left Spurs for Norwich City in a £50,000 deal in March 1975, having scored 76 goals in 260 appearances for the club.
United Arab Emirates against Iraq here, meeting of the Asian Football Gulf Cup which is played tomorrow afternoon at 3.30 pm. Iraq slightly favored for the victory of the meeting comes from a 1-2 success against Qatar while the Emirates come from an easy affirmation against Yemen for 3-0. On a technical level the two teams are the same but Iraq has a very solid defense and in my opinion they will not lose this match also considering that the Emirates when they play against stronger teams almost never score more than one goal per game. I expect a draw here.
Wolves 1994-95 & 2001-02In 1994, after a decade outside the top flight, Wolves spent big in their quest to go up and tasked former England manager Graham Taylor with achieving what he described as "the holy grail" of promotion from Division One. When you get a manager of his calibre saying things like that, you know they mean to do it," Wolves all-time leading scorer Steve Bull told BBC Sport. Graham was unbelievable.
To even up the balance wherever clubs have played a different number of games, average number of points per game will be used to decide positions. This would result in a minor shift in positions. Arsenal would nudge ahead of Tottenham for instance, as would Sheffield United, into sixth, above Wolves. The biggest difference would be in League One, where Wycombe would leap from eighth into third - and potentially a promotion slot if play-offs were scrapped.

Actually these two teams met twice this season in the league as there are 4 games between each club during a normal season in the first league level in Slovenia and both those games ended up in 2-2 draws, but things are different right now like the odds suggest with Celje playing very solid football in their recent home games and winning most of them without conceding a single goal, won after the winter break with 2-0 at home against Aluminij which is a decent side.
Manchester City's Aymeric Laporte raised money for French health workers fighting coronavirus by buying the 2012 Olympic outfit worn by late boxer Alexis Vastine at auction, before returning it to his family.

Greuther Furth are in 12th place with 38 points while Dynamo Dresden remain rock bottom of 2 Bundesliga with only 27 points. But Greuther Furth didn't really convince me in their recent games and I believe Dynamo Dresden has a good chance here.
Genoa secured only their fourth win of the season with a 1-0 victory against Cagliari, Goran Pandev’s first-half strike stretching the visitors’ winless league run to nine matches. Sassuolo came from behind to beat bottom side SPAL 2-1, a Francesco Caputo penalty and last-minute Jeremie Boga header responding to Kevin Bonifazi’s first-half opener for SPAL.
Sergio Aguero's dramatic title-winning goal for Manchester City in 2012 featured prominently in your contributions - though not always for the obvious reason - as did Leicester's title heroics, Celtic's dominance in Scotland and various adventures in the Champions League.

Newcastle United, Bournemouth and Norwich City have also taken the decision to furlough some of their own staff on the government's scheme. Video - Tottenham’s decision to cut staff pay ‘completely unacceptable’02:09 However, pressure is now mounting on Spurs to follow Liverpool’s example and perform a U-turn, with Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust urging their club to listen to supporters, calling on Levy and the board to “pause and rethink”.
They have won as many games this season as in any of their previous Premier League campaigns, equalling the number they managed when finishing seventh in 2017-18. Even with Mee absent, they were defensively solid, with Kevin Long stepping in to ensure Pope was largely protected, barring an early effort from McBurnie that the keeper parried and Egan's shot that he had little chance of saving. The Clarets will feel they should have wrapped up the points with 15 minutes left but after following up Jay Rodriguez's parried shot from long range, McNeil fired wide with just Dean Henderson to beat.

It was just unfortunate, he nicked his meniscus just changing direction. You're looking at around three or four weeks (out), so he'll probably miss most of January and early February, and then he will be back by then.

Arriving at the bottom of the group with just one point to their name, Lille have nothing more than pride on the line at Stamford Bridge.

After second-placed Leicester's heavy defeats by Manchester City and Liverpool, manager Brendan Rodgers made nine changes to his side for the trip to West Ham -- the most by a Premier League manager so early in the season since 2010.

Adama Traore was a threat down Wolves' right side, but could not set up a goalWolves resilience impresses againThe draw meant that Wolves matched a top-flight unbeaten run last set by the club in 1973. More pleasing for Nuno will be the way his side reacted to going behind, especially as they played against Braga in Portugal in the Europa League on Thursday. This was their 27th game of the season and their resilience in combining both domestic and European form after a stuttering start to the campaign has been impressive.
But the key reason they look destined for an instant return to the second tier has been their poor defensive record. And true to form their lead only lasted six minutes before they conceded a soft equaliser. Dawson lost his marker and was too strong for Alexander Tettey to head into the net from close range from Etienne Capoue's delivery.

The visitors cannot stop conceding goals - they have let in at least three in their last five games - so a stopgap solution to the problem is scoring more themselves.

Defending champions Manchester City host neighbours Manchester United later on Saturday (17:30). How Liverpool's win played outWhat happened elsewhere on Saturday?Reds cruise to another winThere is an air of invincibility about Liverpool this season, as they continue to chase their first league title for 30 years. Saturday's victory at the Vitality was so routine - though the early loss of Ake to injury weakened an already struggling Bournemouth back four.
Fernandes may have fallen out of favour at Benfica, but perhaps Mourinho’s tough love is, er, just what he needs. As for the length of the loan deal? The Warm-Up was confused, initially, but it makes a certain cynical sense. After all, there’s a decent chance that there’ll be nothing left of Mourinho by that point, bar tears and recrimination.

Guardiola's main focus over the remaining nine games of the Premier League is to secure a top four finish, which would allow him to concentrate on the second-leg of City's Champions League last-16 tie with Real Madrid, which may yet be switched from Etihad Stadium to Portugal by Uefa. Eleven points will be enough to achieve that aim, although Guardiola knows qualification for Europe next season is dependent on the Court of Arbitration for Sport overturning Uefa's two season ban when they reveal the outcome of City's appeal in early July.
