Nuno's men are still in the Europa League and face Olympiakos in the last 16 of the competition next month, but they will have to go all the way in that competition to seal a Champions League place or rely on a favour from Chelsea at Wembley to compete on the continent next term. They will lament back-to-back defeats against Arsenal and Sheffield United at the start of the month as the reason they missed out on a top-six place and although they held out until first-half injury time against Chelsea, the home side's two quick-fire goals took the wind out of them.

There is a lot to them. But we can’t look back on anything. We are fighting for the top four and we have to go to Munich and show a lot of pride. I will keep working. Chelsea were a clear second-best to the Bundesliga champions throughout, and their misery was compounded when defender Alonso was red-carded late on for throwing his arm into the face of Lewandowski.
Only one of the past 5 matches between these teams have seen more than 2 goals so we might see less goals in this match too.

A 19th-minute own goal from Pearce, who fell over his own feet as he tried to clear Marc Albrighton's low cross, gave the Foxes a lead they never looked like losing. Barnes nearly made it 2-0 a few minutes later only to be denied by an excellent save from visiting goalkeeper Marshall. But a quick counter-attack just before the break, which ended with Barnes' shot clipping Dunkley and looping over Marshall, saw Leicester double their advantage and move them into the fourth round for the sixth time in nine seasons.

That theme looked set to continue at Tannadice as the hosts started strongly, Appere finishing superbly past Mark Ridgers after Rakish Bingham cut the ball back to the edge of the box. But Inverness responded well to go in level at the break, as White showed good determination in diving to head home from a corner, then flashed an effort just wide moments later.
Who looked really bothered out there? "I looked to the sideline and I don't see the leadership. There's some big questions that need to be asked by the powers that be.

With their two-goal lead having turned into a one-goal deficit Blackpool could have buckled but Armand Gnanduillet got them back on level terms with 15 minutes to go and, just as in the other game, there was to be late, late drama.

At present there only five BAME managers across the top flight and EFL. Speaking to BBC Sport, Bhandari said: "By 2025 we need 20% of boards to be people of colour and 25% of coaches.
I don't believe City's players are planning an exodus but, even if they are thinking of jumping ship, they still have to play well in order to grab the attention of the big clubs they would supposedly want to join. In fact, this trauma they are going through might just be something that is going to kick them on for the rest of the season - and they still have plenty to play for.
The Socceroos, No. FIFA rankings, were eliminated in the group phase at the last three World Cups and had their Asian Cup title defence ended in the quarter-finals in January but Arnold is aiming high at the Copa America.

LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Jan 10 (Reuters) - Hockey may enjoy only a fraction of soccer's wealth and glamour yet the sport's governing body believes it could teach its bigger cousin a few things about the use of technology.

It even rained the first few days we were here. The tournament has been played in hotter temperatures than that in the past. A 'work of art' stadium - but some mobility issuesThe Club World Cup final took place at Doha's Khalifa International Stadium, which is one of the venues for the World Cup. The other seven are at various stages of construction, with work expected to be completed by 2020. Former Liverpool winger Steve McManaman has no concerns the requisite number of grounds for the tournament will be constructed in time.
It is also a measure of vindication for manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who has achieved a giant institution's minimum requirement of a return to the Champions League. There were celebrations, too, at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea's season of renewal under Frank Lampard ended with a place in the top four to satisfy owner Roman Abramovich's ambitions. As they beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0, they were watched by an outstanding signing who will go into next season's Champions League campaign with them - Timo Werner, brought in for £54m from RB Leipzig.
SolskjaerGetty Images Edinson Cavani, Odion Ighalo, Dries Mertens, Teemu Pukki, Islam Slimani, Salomon Rondon, Danny Ings and King have all been linked to United over the past couple of weeks. Woodward appears to be like a kid that in a candy store who has stolen their parents’ wallets. More choice and money than he can possibly know what to do which in turn results in the sort of slap-dash approach that we can see now.
Assisted by Noussair Mazraoui with a cross. Posted at 56' Foul by Nicolás Tagliafico (Ajax). Arsenal recorded the biggest victory in Women's Super League history with an amazing 11-1 thrashing of Bristol City.

Netherlands striker Vivianne Miedema scored six and made a further four in a remarkable individual performance.
Both sides are quite equal in terms of points won so far this season sitting somewhere in the middle of the league table but especially the hosts given a good run of wins they can make to the top places in the league and will want the win here this while the guests played before the winter break and the last year ended on the road 3 draws in a row but one of my main reasons for taking the home win in this one is besides the fact that last time they met here the hosts win it 3-1, the guests were awful in friendly games this winter.
No one can doubt his professionalism, his willingness or his desire to play football. He's one of the best midfielders in the world and it'll be like signing a new player before the transfer window opens. He's stepping up his recovery and let's see how soon he'll be match-fit and available. Midfielder Scott McTominay could also return against Villa after missing United's last two games with an ankle injury and the Norwegian boss said that would allow Pogba to play in a more advanced role when he returned to the side.
Three years ago, Scottish football was in freefall in European terms. Champions League participation was just a dream for Celtic at that stage, while those who ventured into Europa League qualification were knocked out quicker than you could say 'coefficient'. Speaking of which, Scotland's was a paltry 25th in the rankings, behind the heavyweights of Israel, Belarus and Cyprus. The landscape was a grim sight.
Forest are aiming to build on a great run of late, with three wins in their last four matches in the Championship. The hosts have managed to keep three clean sheets on the bounce while extending that against a Cardiff side who have conceded in 89% of their away trips would set them up for a victory. Meanwhile, they are meeting a side with an awful away record.
They look to get back into winning ways with a home game against Fiorentina who are 13th in the table.

Fifa and Fifpro - the world players' union - have set up a global fund to protect players' salaries. The Fifa Fund for Football Players (Fifa FFP) will provide financial support to players who have not been - and will not be - paid by their club. World governing body Fifa has set aside $16m (£12. Another $5m (£3. July 2015 and June 2020. In a statement, Fifa and Fifpro said: "While these grants will not cover the full amount of salaries owed to players, this fund will provide an important safety net.
They host Burnley who are tenth in the table but only six points behind fifth place. City still have that game in hand on Liverpool after their midweek postponement. There is a 25 point gap to make up though and Liverpool's title triumph looks likely to happen sometime in March regardless of how well City play.

Racist incidents have tainted European soccer in recent months. Italian striker Mario Balotelli threatened to walk off the pitch after receiving alleged racist abuse during Brescia's Serie A match against Hellas Verona this month. In the Dutch second division last weekend, Excelsior forward Ahmad Mendes Moreira was racially abused by a section of FC Den Bosch supporters, and the game was suspended for half an hour after the referee decided to take the players off the pitch.
This season he performed like a stale manager in charge of a stale squad. The Spurs set-up is heavy on players who have been with Pochettino most, if not all, of the way, such as Eriksen, Rose, Jan Vertonghen, Harry Kane, Dele Alli, and Eric Dier. They have looked a side short on inspiration and it has been reflected in performances such as the humiliating 7-2 loss at home to Bayern Munich in the Champions League, the first time they had conceded seven goals at home in their 137-year history.

Solskjaer turned to 18-year-old Mason Greenwood at half-time, and the teenager at least showed glimpses of his potential with a brilliant turn past Charlie Taylor followed by a driving run and shot which went just wide. However, the fact Solskjaer is regularly turning to a teenager in a desperate attempt to turn around games is a damning indictment of the quality of his squad, and could prompt United to act in the final nine days of the transfer window.
Where has Bordalas come from?On 29 May 2016, following a 2-0 victory over Numancia, Bordalas led Alaves back to La Liga for the first time in 10 years. But then on 21 June, just 23 days after he had secured promotion, he was sacked. For their coach, it should have heralded the start of a new chapter in his life - a life that until then had consisted of an unglamorous playing career and a 23-year-long coaching path at every level except the very top.
And Ron ‘Chopper’ Harris had made a name for himself. Chelsea striker Ian Hutchinson put it more simply: “We hated them and they hated us. Chelsea had beaten Leeds in controversial circumstances in a 1967 FA Cup semi-finalLeeds still carried lasting scars from their 1967 FA Cup semi-final defeat by the Blues, in which they felt they had a perfectly good Peter Lorimer free-kick ruled out. In the 1969-70 season alone they faced each other six times, with Leeds winning both league games, including a 5-2 win at Stamford Bridge, and the Blues coming out on top over two games in a League Cup third-round tie.
