The Seagulls still haven't won in the league this season, but fighting back for a draw from 3-1 down is a big positive for Graham Potter and his players - it will feel like a win. Media playback is not supported on this device Brighton more than deserved a point - Potter Watford, however, were on the wrong end of a comeback, against Everton, and to lose after being 2-0 up at home was a big blow for them.
Gareth Bale "is not ecstatic" at Real Madrid but there's "no guarantee" he will leave the Spanish club in January, says his agent Jonathan Barnett. Wales forward Bale, 30, has won the Champions League four times in six years with Real but nearly joined China's Jiangsu Suning in the summer. He has never asked to leave," said Barnett on the Euro Leagues Podcast. He has a contract with Real Madrid and as long as they want him, there's not much anyone can do about it.
His professionalism is always good. Norwich boss Daniel Farke, speaking to Sky Sports: "On Saturday, we were relegated, so not happy days but I am pleased with the reaction of my boys. We were not far away from winning a point. The commitment and desire was really good. I just have compliments for my boys. On a good day we are competitive against the best teams in the world but once we are not spot on, we are not.
With manager Ally McCoist out of the picture and a run of draws coming under caretaker Kenny McDowall, former Ibrox midfielder McCall took charge in March of third-place Rangers until the the end of the season. I remember sitting in the manager's office sorting out training and someone said 'Walter's on the phone'," said McCall of former nine-in-a-row manager Walter Smith. I think the first words the gaffer said were 'Do you effing know what you are letting yourself in for?' then started laughing.
Bradford City will host Leyton Orient for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites in this game. Bradford are more ambitious team in this season. I think, the hosts will try to make a positive result on the home field. Also, Bradford is better team in the last mutual matches. On the other hand Leyton Orient is very average team in this campaign. Visitors have highly variable results. Also, Leyton Orient is not very good team away from home - 1 win and 4 losses in their last 5 matches. I think, the hosts will closer to victory.
Jan 20 (Reuters) - Cristiano Ronaldo sometimes appears to create more problems than he solves but, after another match-winning performance on Sunday, Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri was convinced the latter is true, even if the talisman is not always easy to accommodate. The 34-year-old has shaken off the knee problems which have bugged him early in the season and on Sunday hit the target for a remarkable seventh Serie A game running as he scored both goals in Juve's 2-1 win over Parma.
Lok. Plovdiv awaits the winner of this second time in the Semis of the cup competition, in the final after they defeated Levski in a double leg ended yesterday. And the first leg between CSKA Sofia and Botev Plovdiv was indeed a very boring one with the hosts mainly concerned of not conceding, of course they would not have minded scoring and taking a lead in this return leg, but as things start they still hold a pretty decent chance of reaching the final.
The Scottish FA and Scottish Professional Football League have formed a joint response group to address any effects of coronavirus.

Keflavik need big win here, and to wait for a huge defeat of the leader. It would be tough, but since home side is already out of the competition, their rival would play in the combined roster and would not take from the full power here.
Birmingham City recovered from conceding a goal after 40 seconds to win at Ashton Gate and end Bristol City's four-game winning run in the Championship. Jamie Paterson capitalised on Marc Roberts' weak backpass to round goalkeeper Lee Camp and give the hosts a perfect start, but Lee Johnson's side were 2-1 behind by half-time. Scott Hogan's tap-in equaliser for Blues, after Dan Bentley had saved Jeremie Bela's powerful effort, was the first goal that the Robins had conceded in 383 minutes of league action.
In that time, they have faced Jeonbuk on seven occasions, failing to win any. The sample size of data is small this early in the season so it's worth looking at last season's results for an indication of how this could go. Seoul finished third in the championship round of the season with a decent home record of eight wins, six draws and five defeats.
Now I'm at home in self-quarantine. Mentally, I'm very well and my symptoms have almost all gone," he added in a video on Weibo.

Four of RB Leipzig's past five Champions League goals have been penalties, including each of the past three. Only one team has ever scored more than four penalties in a single Champions League campaign - Barcelona in 2011-12 (five). All three of Spurs' Champions League defeats this season have been against German teams (two against Bayern Munich, one against RB Leipzig). Only one team has ever lost more than three in a single campaign all against teams of the same nation, with Leeds United falling to all five of their defeats in 2000-01 against Spanish opponents.
City are willing to make the Belgian international their highest-paid player and are planning to use the gesture as a bid to convince De Bruyne to stay, despite fears of a two-year Champions League ban. The Manchester outfit have appealed their UEFA ban and are likely to hear the final decision before the end of this season.
We’re confident that PSV will win-to-nil on Saturday and we have predicted a 3-0 final scoreline. The hosts aren’t the form favourites heading into Saturday’s clash but do have a great record against their guests and have played their best football at home this season, while Fortuna Sittard are yet to win on the road, where losing has become a habit.
This will be probably derby match in this round in Danish Super league and this match is for me ideal for betting on goals. So, first very important fact here is that one, that this rivals are in last official duel played match in who was scored even six goals, 4-2, when Brondby was better at home. Now, it will be much harder to do it, because Nordsjaelland is in excellent form. This team is won in last four matches in a row, and they want to continue that series. Yes, over is ok and I will try that. It is real.

I don't understand the criticism, I know how he is as a coach, he is one of the best," said Zidane. I said recently that Pep Guardiola is the best coach around and Simeone is among the best. Atletico's recent results have not changed my opinion of him. Atletico are without a win in their last four games in all competitions and last week the club's CEO Miguel Angel Gil Marin felt the need to show his support for Simeone after the embarrassing Copa del Rey exit to Cultural Leonesa.

Football is trying to do a lot of good," he told TalkSport. To wake up yesterday and see footballers being painted as villains was a bit of a surprise. The health secretary, deflecting blame on to footballers, I don’t think that is right. His job is the responsibility of NHS workers. NHS workers have been underpaid for years.
With Germany's Bundesliga having resumed after the coronavirus lockdown, the race for the European Golden Shoe is back on. The French season has been declared over but football is set to return in England, Italy and Spain later this month.

Barnsley come into this one playing good football, lifting themselves up the table. While Bristol City’s only two wins in seven have come against the bottom two, they meet the third bottom side with the Tykes flying up the form table. Only six sides have more points across the last eight games, while only four teams have fewer points than the Robins in that same period. That has us going with Barnsley Double Chance here.
Greaves quickly came to terms with the new reality. I was gutted when the games first got called off,” he said. We were so close to winning it again after so long. But it rapidly became clear that it was right to push football on to the back burner. We are talking about people's lives here. It’s about getting priorities right.

Liefering is number 6 with 31 points, 20 points behind from the first (SV Ried) and 11 points ahead of the last (Kapfenberger) and 8 points from the relegation places, but that makes them very unlikely that they can ascend to the Austrian Bundesliga, but also unlikely to descend.
Straighter backs. Higher shoulders. Barely-repressed smiles. Or more specifically: Mesut Özil sprinting around like Gennaro Gattuso, and David Luiz strolling around like Franco Baresi. No wonder poor United looked a bit confused. United also looked confused because they are, well, quite confused: when Plan A (“have some quick lads”) doesn’t work they default to Plan B (“have Anthony Martial dribble around the entire defence”), and when that doesn’t work they lose.
Mendy was shown a second yellow card in the 82nd minute for a rash challenge.

CSA and Fluminense face each on a battle for maintenance in the big Brazilian league. CSA has a way harder job. I would say almost impossible with the way they are playing. Fluminense on the other hand have a difficult job but it is very possible for them to maintain themselves above sea level. Fluminense has a good team and have been playing very well. I believe they have what it takes to keep at série A. This game I have to favor the outsiders but CSA still having the chance of making it will turn into a really difficult victory for any of them.

The argument that women are paid enough if they make close to the same amount as men while winning more than twice as often is not equal pay.

Champions League chasers Leverkusen were much fitter, having played five times since the Bundesliga restarted last month, and it showed.
