Schalke keeper Alexander Nuebel came to the rescue on several occasions as the visitors looked to make it four wins in a row as they produced a strong first half performance. After the break Schalke managed to keep Union at bay while controlling the pace and finding more space. Union keeper Rafal Gikiewicz kept his team in the game and repeatedly denied Serdar and Amine Harit but he could do nothing to stop the former's shot going in four minutes from the end.
While PSG struggled against Amiens, needing to rise from 0-3 down to draw 4-4, Dortmund had a field day, battering Eintracht Frankfurt 4-0. Dortmund’s win saw then end a run of two losses where they conceded heavily. Dortmund have seen each of their last six matches end in over 2. They have three straight home wins and in the Champions League, Dortmund have four wins in the last 11 – not a very strong run in Europe there.

It’s semi-final derby time! Elsewhere in the League Cup, Colchester United kept Manchester United out for 45 minutes. Unfortunately for them, football games are 90 minutes, which doesn’t really seem fair, and they lost 3-0. Manchester City also scored three past a sparky Oxford United, who actually managed more shots on target than their glamorous visitors.
Tondela have only scored three goals at home this season and Belenenses have only scored four away goals, providing another reason to expect under 2.5 goals to be scored when these two sides lock horns. Tondela have kept clean sheets in 40% of their home games and Beleneneses have kept clean sheets in 33% of their away games, and we can see the pair cancelling each other out on Sunday. Tondela have failed to score in 40% of their home games this season and Belenenses have failed to score in 67% their games on the road, which provides yet another reason to back a goalless draw between the pair.

German champions Bayern Munich were interested in taking the 23-year-old back to the Bundesliga prior to his pre-season injury. Having recently returned to training, it is expected Sane - signed for £37m on a five-year deal from Schalke in 2016 - will receive further attention this summer. However, Guardiola said his only concern is the German international's return from injury in order to bolster his squad as they continue to challenge for four trophies.
It's got to be for the benefit of the club," Morris told a news conference before Sunday's FA Cup third-round clash with Nottingham Forest. We can't let people walk out the door if that means we're left short somewhere.

Hamburger SV will host Arminia Bielefeld for this fixture of the league. Both teams are one of the main favorites in this campaign. Of course, both teams have the motivation to make a positive result. In my opinion, the hosts are favorites on the home field. Hamburger is really better team at home. The visitors also want to win. Armenia is the best team on the road. However, Armenia is not very good team away from home lately. In any case, this will be tense match. I expect, the hosts to dominate on the home ground. I think, Hamburger will closer to victory.

Hannover changed the coach and hopes to have the first win of the season at home. It is strange for this team that had in their objective promotion in the Bundesliga. Of course, that has gone for a long time and now they try to avoid relegation. Their coach has been working at Sandhausen till October 2018 and it was out ever since.
So it's frustrating for him. He has to stay positive, which is frustrating for him because he was just getting himself to a level where we all want him to be again. Bruce told reporters ahead of Sunday's visit to Arsenal in the Premier League that the club would not be putting a timescale on Carroll's return while midfielder Jonjo Shelvey will not be fit in time for the trip to north London.
His finish into the bottom right corner came too quickly for Pope to react. TALKING POINT Dominant Spurs overpower desperate Clarets. After the defeat at former club Manchester United last week, Mourinho will have demanded a response and he got it. Not only were Kane, Son, Lucas and Dele all on fire from the off, despite the latter’s impressive scoring run coming to an end, but they also kept their first clean sheet of the new era and just their second in the Premier League this season.
Prize money for winning each is £4m. Klopp's side have won one, now they chase the other. Not bad for three games' work. A first win and revenge for 1981 Liverpool were well beaten by Flamengo in the 1981 Intercontinental Cup final. The two sides could meet again in Qatar. Finally, this is a trophy that Liverpool have never won. They played in the 2005 final but lost 1-0 to Sao Paulo. There is also the chance for revenge.

Tottenham have conceded six goals in their last two away league fixtures. Brighton have only lost one of their last six home league matches.

They look to climb the table with a home win over Tottenham who start the weekend in seventh place.
Today will be a match of the championship of the Spanish Examples, in which Leganes will take Celta. Leganes is currently at position 20 and has only 6 points. Celta takes 18th place with 13 points. Both teams spend just awful the first part of the season and are fighting for survival. Leganes is not bad in defense, but now there are serious personnel problems, so there will probably be many mistakes in defense in this match. Celta recently changed her coach and finally managed to win, but then a draw followed. The match is very important for both teams and it is quite difficult to single out an obvious favorite here, but still he would have preferred Leganes a little more, since he needs to do everything in this match in order to gain maximum points. Yes, Celta also needs to win, but the situation among the Celts is slightly better. If you look at the face-to-face meetings, you can see that these teams do not play among themselves productively, but I think that in today's match there are quite a few prerequisites for it to be effective.
The lethality with which the second was dispatched is evidence of a player high on confidence and overflowing with menacing intent. In attitude, drive and ability he is eerily reminiscent of a young Wayne Rooney, who could be swung like a wrecking ball directly through whatever was in front of him at the same age.

Galatasaray may be one of the largest associations in Turkey. But on the road, no team has had it easy against Trabzonspor. The Turkish league has been very so in recent years that most teams have a positive trend at home. I imagine the away team will have a lot of ball in this match. But it doesn't feel unreasonable to think that the home team will settle for at 3 point in this match.

AMSTERDAM, March 3 (Reuters) - UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin told European football's administrators on Tuesday that they can be proud to be in charge of the most popular, wealthiest and best football in the world. In a surprisingly blunt message, the Slovenian told his organisation's annual congress that they should not be ashamed of the success of tournaments such as the Champions League and the Euros -- nor the huge amount money they generate.
Former Newcastle forward Ayoze Perez got the ball rolling in the first half for Brendan Rodgers' side, before a stunning strike from James Maddison made it two before halftime.

Shooting one another with pellets of paint is the only conflict Nuno will permit in his squad. There has been an emphasis on creating a small, unified group of players to make up the first team at each club Nuno has managed, starting with Rio Ave and moving on to Valencia, Porto and now Wolves. Indeed, Wolves have used just 20 players in the Premier League this season, made more surprising by their success in the Europa League, a competition they started back in July.
Deals almost always start in July, with massive marketing campaigns being done around them. Finishing the season at all costs is a laudable ambition - and may yet come to pass - but it has immense complications. There is unease among some about the speed some club executives have started to talk about the game being played again - one said privately football might help cheer the country up. But with, literally, hundreds of millions of pounds at risk, the consensus, for now, remains to look for the finishing line.
