The conditions were difficult the grass was long," Arteta said. They didn't put any water on it and that's not very helpful to play football. I didn't water the pitch yesterday in the training ground so I was expecting it. That doesn't make it easier to play. It's their game, they do really well at what they do.
Come the home Euros now, I'll be 31 going on 32. That could potentially be a completely different question with the management. Who knows. Hopefully age doesn't play a factor. We'll see what happens. With Japan being hot and humid, another year playing in those conditions will help. I just have to keep motivated and injury free, and hope all the stars align. Jade Moore was speaking to BBC Sport's Jo Currie.
Meanwhile, having not won the domestic title since the 14/15 season, Zamalek are hoping to really push for it this season. Nonetheless, last campaign they finished some 8 points behind arch rivals Al Ahly and will have their work cut out this season as regards getting the better of them, given the leaders have thus far won all 7 of their opening games.
Messi responded by saying Abidal should name which players he had in mind so as not to tarnish the image of the entire squad. Messi's intervention dominated the front pages of Wednesday's sports newspapers: Sport said his reaction had caused a 'tsunami', Marca declared the Argentine had delivered 'a knockout blow', while AS headlined their edition 'FC Chaos'.
A confident, assured David de Gea saves all three goals today. I would be worried, his inconsistency is costing United games. If the goalkeeper makes one mistake, or possibly two, you think you should stick with him. But it keeps happening," said former England captain Alan Shearer. I think you only bring Dean Henderson back to Manchester United as the number one, or you keep him where he is to keep gaining experience.
Both teams scored in three of Maritimo’s last five matches and both teams scored and over 2.5 goals were produced in Boavista’s last two matches, so you can see why we have backed a final scoreline of 2-1 this weekend. Maritimo have only won once at home this season and Boavista have only lost once on the road, which is why we have gone with a double chance bet in favour of the visitors this weekend.
Both clubs come from south of the city of Buenos Aires. Quilmes sit on 13th and Brown de Adrogue sit on 14th in the group B table. So far it has not been a good season for both clubs as they are sitting on lower half of the table and playing not so good in recent matches as well. Both teams have won only 3 of their 14 matches this season. I expect an open game here. Both teams have the capability to win it. But I would like to place my bet on the home team as they have the home advantage and we all know home advantage plays a big role in Argentina League

Barcelona bounced back from last week's defeat to Valencia with a 2-0 win over Levante at Camp Nou, with Ansu Fati scoring two quick goals to lead his side to victory. See alsoFC Barcelona v Levante UD - La Liga LIVE The 17-year-old latched on to a fine pass from Lionel Messi to break the deadlock on the half hour mark and scored again barely a minute later, with the youngster's brace enough to secure victory, despite Ruben Rochina's late consolation goal for the visitors.
Espanyol have a poor run not just in the recent matches, but in the season too. They restarted on a high but what has let them down in the season checked in right after and they are seeking a first win in four. They have a poor run against Real Madrid, which further dims their hopes. Most crucially, is that Espanyol have been capitulating in the second half, while Real Madrid have consolidated most of their wins in the second half in recent matches. Based on this, we will go with a Half Time/Full Time bet of a draw at the break and Real Madrid winning at full time.
Kyle's actions in this matter have directly contravened these efforts. We are disappointed to hear the allegations, note Kyle's swift statement and apology, and will be conducting an internal disciplinary procedure in the coming days. Global virus infections exceed a million, with more than 65,000 deaths, a Reuters tally showed.

Arsenal have missed out on Europe's elite club competition for three consecutive seasons and the Spaniard added that a fourth could also have a big financial impact. The Premier League is poor – the top-four race proves it Solskjaer: De Gea is the world's best "It's a no-brainer," Arteta told reporters when asked if it was easier to sign players with Champions League qualification secured.
The visitors are coming into this one following eight defeats in their 10 trips this season. The visitors have conceded twice in five of their last six on the road, while their poor away run this term has seen them ship 2.1 goals per trip. That form is a concern with Millwall playing so well.
None of that changed the fact Ferguson's side were unable to muster the goal that would have put them through. The best chance fell to Liverpool's Steve Nicol, but his effort was clawed clear and the Scots were out after a goalless draw. There would be further disappointment for Rough after he arrived home. An imposing hi-fi, bought "for a right few bob" by himself and room-mate Graeme Sharp, became the prize for the winner of a series of inter-squad games.

It looked like a practice game at times for Pep Guardiola's side at Hillsborough but they struggled to convert their overwhelming superiority into goals. Nicolas Otamendi headed on to the crossbar and Benjamin Mendy thumped a shot against the woodwork, before Aguero made the breakthrough in the 53rd minute courtesy of an unfortunate error by keeper Joe Wildsmith.
The champions have continued to battle on multiple fronts this season, but they’ve had a noticeable shift up front. They have seen others step up in place of Cristiano Ronaldo, who had a disappointing campaign. However, the Portuguese has had a great December with four goals in three games, seemingly spurred on by his Ballon d’Or loss.
The draw left them five points behind third which is the final Europa League qualifying place. Home form has been good this season with three out of five being won. Two have been lost though but they were mainly in the early part of the new season. Three of their last four home games have been won. Goals haven’t been flowing though with all but one of their home league games having under 2.
Five of the last seven Slavia home league games have seen under 2.5 goals scored. Slavia have kept three clean sheets in their last four home games. FC Minsk have failed to score in their last three games. Both of these sides made a good start to the season but have slipped in recent games. Slavia Mozyr are seventh in the Belarus Premier League and host FC Minsk who have dropped to 11th but are only a point behind their opponents.
The club were fined £2,650 for wearing a jacket with a sponsor on the front as they walked onto the pitch for their game against Real Madrid that had an oversized logo. Paper Round’s view: City are already fed up with UEFA’s plan to ban them from two seasons of European football, so going after them for this transgression will likely seem extremely petty.

This will be one of the most interesting matches today in Spain Primera and I believe that we will see here at least even four goals. I was watched both rivals a lot of times this season but also and in Super cup in Saudi Arabia, in last two weeks. I think that Barcelona is better team and they are closer to win, but Valencia on the other side is team who is traditionally making a lot of problems to them. We will see what will happen this time, but I believe, as I said before in at least four goals here.
And he will have probably a hundred million followers on the social media side at that time, his marketing will be bigger by that time. And he's 32 so he can still go and play in top-level football for the next two or three years. The options are coming in now," Sogut reiterated, "Maybe he will stay and have a new contract with Arsenal.
Decisions like that are crucial," added Lampard. That's a major part of what VAR was brought in for: a second viewing, different angles. I don't get why they aren't looking at the monitor. It should be used. VAR also ruled out two Chelsea goals from Kurt Zouma and Olivier Giroud in a frustrating night for Lampard's side, who went a fourth straight league match without victory.
Casillas, who led Spain to win Euro 2008 and 2012 as well as the 2010 World Cup, suffered a heart attack in May while training with current club Porto, and has not played since.

I have to disagree with the odds in this one having watched Kaya many times in their own league where Ceres is by far the best club while Kaya lost most of the games played with Ceres home or away league or cup last season, this while I watched them win 2-0 away at Shan Utd and their defense was really not that great to watch but their opponents were too weak to score a goal in that one, and do not get impressed with the fact they won that game as Shan Utd is very weak side.
That's left them eight points adrift of the final Europa League place but only seven above the relegation play-off position. They are unbeaten in their last three at home but the last two have both ended in 2-2 draws. Getting a point from their last home fixture was an achievement as they trailed Fortuna Dusseldorf with just two minutes of normal time remaining.
Everton was a freak goal," said Solskjaer. Keane said on Friday he was "sick to death" of De Gea, arguing the goalkeeper should have saved the Steven Bergwijn shot that gave Tottenham a half-time lead. Solskjaer said: "On Friday he might have saved it, he might not. But he makes great saves for us. He wins games for us. I still think he is best goalkeeper in the world. De Gea is under pressure for his place in the Spain side from Chelsea's Kepa Arrizabalaga.
