Rochdale, struggling in 18th place in League One, improved after the break though and the 40-year-old Wilbraham, a halftime substitute, poked home an equaliser with 10 minutes left. They would have been celebrating a famous win had Oliver Rathbone not scuffed a glorious late chance wide but Newcastle survived to set up a replay.
Cooper bought into Bielsa, he helped others to follow and Bielsa improved them all. Leeds 'will be good for Premier League'Can you name Leeds' managers since 2004?Embracing historyBielsa is aware of Leeds' rich history but has never leaned on it, besmirched it or used it as an excuse. His attitude has been 'mea culpa' in defeat and magnanimity in victory. Never courting the headlines himself, he wants the spotlight to reflect off his players and shine on the supporters whose welfare he felt was inextricably linked to the team they loved and the game he loves like an amateur.
Norwegian football acted quickly as the virus took hold, quarantining players who had been abroad for 14 days, cancelling the national team's Euro 2020 playoff with Serbia and suspending all football activity including training. The temporary layoffs are the next step in protecting the long-term future of the game, said Joachim Walltin, who is the director of NISO.
So with six wins and two draws from their last eight overall and five wins and two draws from seven home games in La Liga this term, Zidane's side really do go into this Saturday's fixture in fine fettle.
Nearly a month ago, Benfica lost the advantage in the championship race with Porto. After nothing in the direct confrontation with Porto on February 9, the team of coach Bruno Lage continued to challenge themselves with a 0-1 defeat at the Da Luz lair against Braga. Although Benfica won last weekend with a 1-0 win over Gil Vicente, Benfica is only 1 point ahead of Porto on the table. This is a very fragile gap and can catch up at any time. It should be known that, Porto is focusing all its energy on the domestic front, they show through the past 5 rounds of victory.
Immobile has helped the hosts to a record scoring streak. Lazio have scored at least two goals in each of their last eight league games – they have never recorded a longer such streak in Serie A. On top of that, the Biancocelesti have won their last four home Serie A games against Udinese, with an aggregate score of 8-0.
It's a wacky game that's for sure -- but it's great," Bruce, who was missing nine regulars through injury, said. It just shows you shouldn't leave a game early. His words could have equally applied to an eventuful London derby at Stamford Bridge where Chelsea's stuttering form continued as they were held by 10-man Arsenal.
IFK Goteborg will host Mjallby for this fixture of the league. Perhaps, the hosts are favorites in this game. Goteborg have advantage at home stadium. Also, I believe, Goteborg are more ambitious team in the league. In previous game Goteborg is won 1-2 against Varbergs. Also, we have Mjallby who's is not very good team at the start of the new campaign. They have two consecutive losses. Of course, the visitors have a very difficult task. Nevertheless, they have the motivation to break the poor series. In any case, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. My pick - Mjallby to win.
The problem is they are not winning enough games. If they are not drawing they are losing. If you don't get enough wins you don't get enough points. You can play as nice a style of football as you like but you don't have the points required after 38 games, you can't say you deserve to stay up. Safe - West Ham West HamGetty Images I don't want to come out and say West Ham will go down because I live in West Ham territory! But in all seriousness, they've got out of this position before under David Moyes in the past.

THURSDAY, 26 DECEMBER Tottenham v Brighton (12:30 GMT)Tottenham were out-thought tactically by Chelsea on Sunday, could not get control of the game in midfield and finished up well beaten.

One game might be scant evidence but appointing a legendary former player as manager has been an option taken by both Manchester United and Chelsea in the last year. Could Everton be tempted in that direction too? MAN OF THE MATCH – Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Everton) Under the watchful gaze of Ferguson, the symbolism of Everton’s incumbent number nine turning in an inspirational, match-winning performance was not lost on anyone.
To leave out Abdoulaye Doucoure and Troy Deeney after their win at Bournemouth and two-goal Riyad Mahrez after he danced his way through the Aston Villa defence on two occasions was very difficult. But I could not bring myself to leave out Kevin de Bruyne after his assist for Gabriel Jesus. Have you ever seen a pass like it? Out of this world.
Mexican striker Raul Jimenez scored twice as Wolves magnificently came from 2-0 down to win at in-form Southampton. The Saints looked set for their sixth win in seven games when Jan Bednarek hooked in and Shane Long headed home for his first of the season. However, the momentum shifted after the break. Portuguese teenager Pedro Neto, exceptional for Wolves so far this season, reduced the deficit after controlling Adama Traore's delivery from the right.

Asked whether he would like to play for Madrid in the future, Sterling said: "How do I answer that one? Is the camera live or is it just taking pictures? "No one knows what the future will hold.
He’s been getting a lot of service in the box, which has sent him top of the scoring charts. The Serbian has scored in each of his last five appearances for club and country, hitting seven goals in that time. After a vital brace last weekend, we think it’s worth backing Mitrovic to find the net on Saturday.

Bristol Rovers is sitting on 4th place at this moment with 35 points so they are on a play-off place and are just one point away from 2nd placed Peterborough with one game less played right now as well, while they drew with Peterborough 0-0 last game in the league at home, won 2-1 away at Ipswich two rounds ago and 3 rounds ago won 4-2 at home against modest Southend and since they won 3-1 away at Wimbledon earlier this season I see no reason given their current good form that they cannot repeat the feat and win once more by 2 goals difference especially that they are at home.
Olivier Giroud scored his first Premier League goal of the season - and his first since April - as Chelsea beat Tottenham 2-1 to tighten their grip on fourth place.

The loser of this game will be in the Premier League relegation zone at Christmas, so not the greatest prize at stake. Both teams have been struggling throughout the season and between them have conceded 66 goals. They both regularly score too, especially Southampton on their league travels. The best bet to place for this game appears to be one on both teams to score.
The former Tunisia and Kuwait coach replaces Fajr Ibrahim, who led Syria to the top of the standings in the ongoing qualifying rounds for the 2022 World Cup finals in Qatar.

They are all having a go, but essentially it all depends on Chelsea and Leicester now. The Foxes have had a bit of a wobble but I still think they are too far ahead of fifth place to be caught. Chelsea, however, have a genuine problem. They seem unable to hold on to leads, home or away, and we have seen the first bit of friction from their manager Frank Lampard with regards to the transfer window and him not getting what he wanted.
We weren't as clinical as we could have been. We didn't show enough quality in terms of our balls into the box and create enough opportunities for the level of dominance that we had. In the second half we deservedly went ahead but to concede so soon afterwards and, ultimately, to concede again, was disappointing as both goals were preventable. We were denied a clear-cut penalty but it was a game that really, given where we were and the control we had, we should have won.

Games in the west of Asia had already been suspended prior to the announcement. The decision means matches due to be played in March and April in the confederation's other four zones around Asia - south, central, south east and east - have now also been postponed. The AFC Cup is the continent's second-tier club competition and features teams from countries such as Jordan, Lebanon, Singapore, Bangladesh and Tajikistan.

Scientists have confirmed it takes an average of five days for symptoms to show. The club said it would refund supporters with tickets and was also contacting other Arsenal staff or guests who shared the directors' box restaurant during the game on 27 February. We understand this will cause inconvenience and cost to fans planning to attend the game but Arsenal, Manchester City and the Premier League have agreed that the short notice of Mr Marinakis' infection means there is no alternative but to take the time to complete a proper assessment of risk," the Premier League said in a statement.

Barcelona’s defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup appears to have been the final straw for Valverde, who has won La Liga in both his seasons at the club. It would be the first time Barca have sacked a head coach in the middle of a season since Louis van Gaal in 2003, and Valverde would leave the club top of the table, albeit on goal difference from Real Madrid.
In this round, we have outlined a game for newcomers to the Belarus championship and this naturally should be very interesting, because the teams are new and it is not yet clear what they are compared to other teams of the major league of Belarus. However, we already have information on the points scored by these teams at the start of the season, while they go right at the very bottom of the tournament table, taking the last and last but one place, respectively. it’s bad, of course, especially for Belshina, only one draw, everything else is defeat, the Smolevichs played two draws with the best teams, I think they are stronger than Belching and will win.
Phil Neville is to leave his role as England women's manager next summer. The 43-year-old former Manchester United and Everton defender was appointed in January 2018. Neville, an ex-England international, led the Lionesses to a first SheBelieves Cup title and a fourth-place finish at the World Cup in 2019. But since last year's quarter-final win over Norway, they have lost seven of 11 games and failed to retain their SheBelieves Cup title in March.
It is a big worry. Tottenham are the worst team of those chasing that top-four position - I don't see how they make the Champions League at this rate. There is no doubt that not having Harry Kane and Son Heung-min will have an impact on your team. I am probably being very critical when you have lost your two best players but I am critical because it has been going on a long time now. Constant chopping and changing not helpingIn the weirdest way possible, I would rather be losing games but seeing a performance that suggests it is going to come good.
There was always a fantastic atmosphere at Upton Park for the big games. But that night was very eerie. You could hear the radio commentary drifting across the pitch, and what the coaches were saying to themselves in the dugouts. In fact that was the only game in my whole career that I could hear everything that was said from the bench. One voice stood out above the others - Eddie Baily, a World War Two veteran as well as a former England international.
