It means European champions Italy go into next month's meeting with Switzerland in Rome ahead only on goal difference as the two sides battle it out for top spot. Another source described how previous election campaigns have been decided without allowing the opposition candidate into the building. The hosts were then awarded a penalty in the 57th minute, as Martinez’s shot cannoned off the arm of Spezia debutant Jakub Kiwior in the box. The Argentinian made no mistake from the resulting spot kick, placing it into the bottom left corner to double Inter’s advantage. Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United are all seeded along with German giants Bayern Munich and record 13-time winners Real Madrid. It is said here that Andreas Christensen and César Azplicueta will be playing for Barcelona next year, which would be some great news for Xavi. “He has been at this level many times. The year we made 100 points at that level Kevin was incredible.” I would like us to understand each other better. The goal is obviously one way to improve that relationship, and in the celebrations it was clear to what the strike meant to both the player and the fans. Tottenham’s final group match against the Ligue 1 club, scheduled to be played on December 9, was postponed after a Covid outbreak at Spurs. Day by day he will get his best form. If City are to continue keeping pace with Chelsea and Liverpool in the Premier League and have another real swing at winning their first Champions League title, they will need De Bruyne to find that top form sooner rather than later.Simeon Gholam Arsenal squad players hand Arteta timely reminder It's always nice to play, it's been a while, was the verdict of man of the match Eddie Nketiah after his goal helped Arsenal past Leeds and into the Carabao Cup quarter-finals. “Trevoh Chalobah is out, Ben Chilwell is out, Reece James is out and we have one positive Covid test with Andreas Christensen so he is also out for the game.” Burnley's problem is that they keep on drawing - they have still only won one of their first 15 league games this season - but I think they will get a victory this time. I'm not the type of manager that looks for excuses or looks to blame the officials but it's another clear big moment in the game that has gone against us. Brighton's current form is not a reason to boo manager Graham Potter or the team, though. If at the start of the season, you'd told any of their fans that they would be in the top eight after 14 games, then they would have been delighted. There has even been some thawing of relations with supporters, some of whom were so annoyed at the club's behaviour over the European Super League they forced a Premier League match against Liverpool last May to be postponed. Uefa said all eight clubs were sanctioned due to their non-compliance with the 'no overdue payables' requirement.

Fiorentina - Lecce live score and H2H Football match results Fiorentina vs Lecce live score and live streaming on March 2nd, 2025 at 17:00 UTC time at Artemio Franchi, Firenze for Football Italy Serie A. Sofiane Boufal and Mohamed Salah’s careers appeared to be going in different directions back in 2016, but their lives have taken variant trajectories in recent years ahead of their meeting in Sunday’s Africa Cup of Nations quarter-final between Morocco and Egypt.Six years ago, Salah’s time in the Premier League appeared to have come to an end, with Chelsea selling the forward to AS Roma on a permanent deal for €15 million after just 13 top flight outings, with the Egyptian having failed to make his mark in English football.Just over three weeks later, Southampton parted with a club record £16 million to bring Boufal to England following an exceptional season in Ligue 1 with LOSC Lille, where he inspired Les Dogues to a fifth-placed finish.Soon, Salah would be back, and while Boufal enjoyed occasional moments of brilliance in the Premier League, his legacy in the English game can’t be compared with the top flight’s all-time top scoring African player.At international level, the supremely talented Boufal has also endured testing times and moments of bitter disappointment.There was his failure to make the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations squad due to injury, his omission from Herve Renard’s 2018 World Cup squad, and then the penalty miss in the shock shootout loss against Benin as Morocco were humbled in the Last 16 at the 2019 Afcon.While few in the continent could make his technical class, dribbling skills and mastery of a football, he’s appeared destined to become one of African football’s forgotten men.It’s a stark contrast to Salah, who’s regularly mentioned in Ballon d’Or discussions, has won both the Premier League and the Champions League, and inspired Egypt to World Cup qualification, and a Nations Cup final.Boufal is under no illusion as to how his career has left a lot to be desired, but perhaps here, on the fields of Cameroon, he’s finally taking his opportunity to leave a lasting mark in the continental arena.“I have some bad memories,” Boufal told GOAL, remembering his failure to make the cut in 2015 and 2018, and his penalty miss three years ago, “but seriously, I’m an optimistic person, and I prefer to look forward rather than back.“You can’t be in control of everything, but the most important thing is to have no regrets—I’m doing everything I can do, ensure I have none.”In the absence of Hakim Ziyech, cut from the national team by head coach Vahid Halilhodzic in light of disciplinary issues, Boufal has taken the creative reins for the Atlas Lions.He appears to be relishing centre stage, netting the late winner against Ghana in Morocco’s opener and then an equaliser against Gabon as the 1976 champions progressed into the knockouts as Group C winners.So far, his performances have eclipsed those of Salah who, winner against Guinea-Bissau aside, has struggled to help a goal-shy Egypt team put opponents to bed.“We’ve had a good Nations Cup so far, but I’m not under any specific pressure,” Boufal continued. “I’m going forward now to succeed.“There’s no more pressure on me because of the expectation,” he added. “Expectation does different things to different players, but i’ll just try to do my best.“There’s no more specific pressure on me if the expectation is much greater, that’s happening because I’ve done interesting things in the tournament.”As well as his goals, Boufal is also averaging 3.3 chances created per match -- second only to Youcef Belaili of Algeria — and 2.5 completed dribbles per match.He’s eclipsing Salah in both categories, but now has his work cut out ensuring Morocco progress to the Last Four at the expense of the seven-time champions, with the Atlas Lions criticised for their inefficient finishing so far.“I’m not a player who lets things get into my head,” Boufal continued. “I’m a player who plays without pressure.“I try to be optimistic in life and try to see the glass half full rather than half empty, we’re lucky to create many chances, more than any other team in the Afcon, so this is an asset.“However, during the big matches, the big meetings, they are played on the details, so we have to do better with our finishing and take our chances.”Salah, who has 16 league goals so far this season, knows better than any the value of sticking chances away, but will it be the Liverpool man, or Boufal—the man who once eclipsed him in the transfer window—who will steal the show on Sunday? It might seem straight to slot James Tavernier into the right of my midfield four but his numbers speak for themselves. Up until the 85th minute, Craig Dawson had been the best player on the pitch, but he threw that away when he brought Lukaku down in the box to get himself sent off and gift Chelsea the chance to win the game. Alonso however, was Chelsea’s best player and was one of the only players that caused a threat during the game. Who knows? They're just as capable of scoring three or four as they are of conceding the same amount. But I think, for us, it's about going there, enjoying ourselves and making ourselves and each other proud and, more importantly, making the nation proud and inspiring a load of young girls to get involved in football. Icelandic international Sara Bjork Gunnarsdottir recently criticised tournament organisers' decision to use the Manchester City Academy Stadium, which has a capacity of less than 5,000 and, while that decision has since been defended, Toone admits she can see the positives. The 21-year-old played a total of 69 matches for NYCFC, including 30 last season to earn an MLS All-Star selection while leading the club to an MLS Cup trophy. Both are talented young strikers who have come through the ranks at Arsenal having found the net prolifically at youth level. Now it's important to give him regularity and try to avoid injury to be available for every game. Emerson Royal: Life under Antonio ConteBy Sky Sports News reporter Paul Gilmour In an exclusive interview with Sky Sports News, Tottenham's Emerson Royal reveals how Antonio Conte is trying to alter the mentality of the players and explains how he fits into the new head coach's plans. That's fine. Journalists, pundits, experts, we all have different jobs. When asked whether the challenging week following the defeat to Liverpool has fostered more unity at the club, Solskjaer replied: It has. The stadium announcer initially said the match would restart, following a decision made by local Lyon authorities. His name speaks for itself. As a team, we have been working in a better way and with the philosophy that the new manager has. I signed my contract because I think the future can be good, but obviously many things need to be fixed, as we have seen this season. All the alleged offences relate to four women over the age of 16 and are alleged to have taken place between October 2020 and August 2021. The defender was seen to have slapped and kicked the animal on video that gained circulation before Tuesday's match with Watford, with David Moyes still starting the 27-year-old in that game amid widespread furore. Roma's Lorenzo Pellegrini also had a late penalty saved by Wojciech Szczesny after Matthijs de Ligt had been shown a second yellow card for handball. If you're not the coach, you can still know a player but only superficially. It's only when you're really close to them that you can truly know the levels of their talent. The result continues Arsenal's fine home form - they've won eight of their last nine in all competitions at the Emirates, and have the joint-best home record in the Premier League - and moves them into the Champions League spots for the first time this season. Premier League clubs will meet on Monday to discuss the escalating crisis around the coronavirus pandemic, with the league's chief executive Richard Masters having written to clubs urging players to get the vaccine and stressed the importance of the league completing the season. “I think without him, we would have struggled. Everyone keeps going with the attacking flair, people who have scored the goals and so on, but this is the guy who stops the goals.

Dutch midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum should also come back into contention by then, while Argentine striker Mauro Icardi is ready to fill in for Messi if required after resuming full training on Tuesday. The only side to win six consecutive away league games against the Clarets in their entire league history is Wolves between 1983 and 2002.After losing five of their last seven Premier League games under Ole Gunnar Solskjær (won one and drawn one), Manchester United have lost just one of their 10 under Michael Carrick/Ralf Rangnick (won six and drawn three). One of the things that has really improved under Sampaoli is his tactical awareness, his management of space, which is a huge element in the way Marseille defenders have to defend. We were sloppy with the ball, we were second best in a lot of situations, we didn't show any purpose or build any momentum in the game, we didn't play with the right speed and transform the game Brighton proposed today and the first chance - the only chance they had - they scored a goal. I can imagine the executives of the Premier League sat there looking at their owners and saying, 'What do we do with this situation?' You've got Chinese money sat over here, you've got Russian money sat over here, you've Abu Dhabi money sat over here, and you've obviously got Saudi money at Newcastle. I feel so lucky to be going to work with a squad which is in a great position on all fronts and largely has that experience of being winners, he continued. Varane and Alex Telles failed to clear a simple ball into their box and from there Saka made them pay with a fine strike that was palmed out by David de Gea straight to Nuno Tavares.
