A "special" coach. Arsenal had won the previous season while going unbeaten and Mourinho made some big signings of his own to take them on. Petr Cech, Didier Drogba, Ricardo Carvalho and Arjen Robben - to name half of his summer additions - would all play a huge part in the crushing title win. And it was a procession in the end. Chelsea won 29 of their 38 Premier League games - losing just once - and incredibly conceding just 15 goals.
He later acknowledged a third meeting in 2017 after media reports of the encounter emerged. Lauber had his pay cut for a year after a watchdog found last month he repeatedly told falsehoods and broke a prosecutors' code of conduct in handling the probe. A fraud trial of three former senior German soccer officials and one Swiss over a suspect payment linked to the 2006 World Cup hosted by Germany has already started, but looks on the verge of collapse amid a coronavirus-mandated trial halt as a statute of limitation looms.
Everton beat Reading 3-1, while Merseyside neighbours Liverpool recorded their first league victory of the season against Bristol City, who replace them at the foot of the table after their 1-0 defeat. Katie Zelem's brace helped Manchester United defeat Tottenham 3-0, while a late Alisha Lehmann brace saw West Ham take the points in a 2-1 victory over Brighton.
Spurs are eight in the table and desperately need to get a home win over fifth placed Manchester United. The home side find themselves seven points adrift of the top four and four behind their opponents. March wasn’t good for them and by the time the league was suspended, Spurs had just one point from their last three league games.
Canada were the runners up in last year’s Davis Cup and are again having a good week in this team tournament. They qualified for the last eight by finishing second behind Australia (already through to the semi-finals) in Group F. They beat Greece 3-0 but lost by that scoreline to hosts Australia, before clinching second with a 2-1 victory over Germany after trailing 1-0.
While the Eagles enjoy a six-point lead at the summit of the division, life is not so comfortable for their counterparts. Pacos have steadied the ship somewhat in recent weeks (managing to go unbeaten in four games) but are still not getting enough wins to ensure their safety (with only three victories from their last eight matches).
Magdeburg and Viktoria Koln will face each other in the upcoming match in the 3. Liga in Germany. Magdeburg this season have the following results: 8W, 13D and 10L. Meanwhile Viktoria Koln have 10W, 8D and 13L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Players and staff had all been quarantining in team hotels all week and are being tested for coronavirus regularly. As they left the buses they wore facemasks on their way into the ground. Other people attending the games, including the media, had their temperatures checked. Fans were banned from matches, with police patrolling to make sure no crowds gathered at the venues. Only 213 people were allowed into the ground - 98 on and around the pitch (like players, coaches and ball boys) and 115 in the stands (such as security, medics and media).
England captain Kane had an operation to repair the damage following the injury suffered at Southampton on New Year's Day and was expected to return to training in April. From a rehab point of view and personal point of view, I'm doing really well," Kane told the Spurs website. I'm at a good stage now and just working hard, doing a lot of recovery, a lot of rehab and just waiting to see what happens to the season.

I have said to the boys already, two weeks ago, that we will have a winter break, so it means we will not be there -- it will be the kids who play that game because they cannot deal with us like nobody cares about it. I know it is not very popular, but that's the way I see it. The Premier League asked us to respect the winter break and that's what we'll do.
Barcelona have been the dominant side in meetings with Atletico Madrid and they go to this clash on a good run of form. They will definitely be favorites, but Atletico can also be a tricky side. Atletico have scored twice in each of their last four matches, but that was against much weaker opponents. Here we expect them to employ a more defensive approach, as it has been in their previous meetings. Moreover, they have not been the strongest side when playing away from home, and their defensive approach has contributed largely to the low scoring nature of their games. Here we feel this game will end in under 2.5 goals.
And while no-one would suggest for one second Lampard would be under instant threat if Chelsea failed to make the top four this season, Abramovich is not the sentimental type when it comes to taking big decisions. This meant manager and players had to respond. They did so by producing a performance much more emphatic than the scoreline suggests.
Paper Round’s view: They might be apart in their valuation now, but surely it makes sense for Arsenal to get a deal done with Roma. Mkhitaryan is only under contract until 2021 and his value is unlikely to increase over the next year. He doesn’t appear to have a future at Arsenal so should be on the move in the next transfer window.
Worryingly for Brighton, only four teams have conceded more shots on average per away game since the summer than the Seagulls (17.7), and we think Liverpool can heavily punish Albion's porous rearguard on Saturday.
We have done great to qualify after four games and it gives us an opportunity to give game time to experienced lads who need it," Solskjaer continued. Axel (Tuanzebe), Luke (Shaw), Jesse (Lingard). It's a great chance to give (36-year-old goalkeeper) Lee Grant his first start for the club. It's hard to give young kids games against men.
Hernandez, Mexico's all-time leading scorer with 52 goals in 105 international appearances, told the paper the time was right for him to join the North American league. I'm going to be playing," Hernandez said. People are going to say it was because I couldn't make it (in Europe), but sometimes in football there are things that are not in your hands.
It is a big moment because it's unprecedented and it will feel different because we haven't got fans inside the stadium," Masters told BBC Sport. But whilst it'll feel different, hopefully what's riding on the games, the quality of the football and the passion, some of the Premier League will still come through. Masters also pleaded with fans not to congregate outside stadiums. By turning up to the game, you are potentially putting it in jeopardy, something that we've worked really hard for, which is to play those matches at home and away," he said.
I am not going to do it. I don't see any sense. Roberto MorenoGetty Images 19:00: Jose Mourinho has given his first interview since being appointed as Tottenham manager. What can I promise? Passion - for my job but also passion for my club. It's a privilege when a manager goes to a club and feels that happiness in relation to the squad that he's going to have.

England striker Marcus Rashford said he would fight on after the government confirmed it would not provide free school meal vouchers during the summer. The Manchester United player wrote an emotional open letter to MPs in which he said "the system isn't built for families like mine to succeed". But the Department for Education said it would not reverse its decision. Rashford, 22, responded by tweeting "we aren't beaten yet" and "MPs, please #maketheUturn".
Fiorentina, who narrowly avoided relegation last season, are under new ownership after American billionaire Rocco Commisso bought the club from the Della Valle family. The defeat left them 13th with 16 points, increasing the pressure on coach Vincenzo Montella, while Torino are eighth. Surprise package Cagliari stayed fourth, ahead of AS Roma on goal difference, when they hit back from two goals behind to draw 2-2 at Sassuolo, who missed a second-half penalty Domenico Berardi and Filip Djuricic put the hosts 2-0 ahead by halftime but Joao Pedro headed one back six minutes after the restart and Daniele Ragatzu equalised in the final minute.

We need to talk about Leicester. Much of the recent media focus has been on the fascinating battle between Liverpool and Manchester City, the managerial turmoil at Tottenham and the developing crises at Arsenal, Everton and West Ham. Away from all that noise though, Brendan Rodgers' side have continued to go about their business quietly (barring one headline-grabbing result), ruthlessly and quite superbly - with Saturday's 2-0 win at Brighton keeping them second in the table, a point above the reigning champions and behind only Jurgen Klopp's unbeaten leaders.
Liverpool were on their way to becoming champions of Europe again. Video - Rapinoe: We don't want to go to White House. Trump sent invite by mail01:31 Ben Snowball “Ben Davies with the tackle… here’s Son… Sissoko… here’s Dele Alli… here’s Lucas Mouraaa… OH THEY’VE DONE IT, I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!” Dan Quarrell The defining moment of the 2018/19 Premier League season belonged to one man, and it could hardly have been more fitting.
Threat was coming from everywhere with Edouard and Griffiths combining well as they pinned St Johnstone in and created chance after chance. They were ably supported by the likes of Callum McGregor, Ntcham, Taylor and Forrest, who seems to love playing against this opposition. It was his delivery which created the opener. An inch perfect cross that allowed Ntcham to power home without breaking stride.
They only showed some urgency in fleeting moments. There are mitigating factors like their poor run of form and the injuries to their forwards but waiting until the 97th minute to bring on Troy Parrott, the club's only fit striker, was a strange decision. You can allow defensive and passive football if it leads to a winning formula but that is not the case at the north London club currently.
But Professor James Calder - who has chaired the cross-sport working group with government and health officials on the return to sport - has told BBC Sport that sports events are highly unlikely to have full capacity crowds this year. I would be very surprised if we could get full stadia back this year," he said. Realistically I think it probably will need a vaccine and also a high take-up rate of that vaccine before we can really see full capacity stadia.
He's a player like any other and you have to have respect when you're substituted. INTER CHASING ERIKSEN, YOUNG AND GIROUD Second-placed Inter Milan, two points behind leaders Juventus, are chasing Manchester United's Ashley Young and Chelsea's Olivier Giroud as well as Tottenham Hotspur's Christian Eriksson, according to Gazzetta dello Sport and other Italian media.

They have eight losses, two wins and four clean sheets in the last 15 matches while they have not scored more than one goal in their last eight matches. They have actually scored more than a goal in just two of the last 15 matches they have played. Whereas they have shown great improvement defensively in the last two matches, Amiens have not scored in the two matches and they are without a win in their last three home matches.
It was something the manager worked on during the week -- when we have the ball to drop into a back three. I was happy to do it, we did it for a few days in training and I enjoyed it," Coleman told the Everton website https://www. He's a manager who, when he speaks, you listen. When he walks into a room, you perk up.
It was later explained by VAR officials that the original verdict had been mistaken and it should have been a red card. That was something anyone watching could have told those in Stockley Park at the time. It did not need lengthy contemplation after the event to work this one out. All it needed was for Lo Celso, who was later booked, to have snatched a late equaliser for Spurs and the VAR nonsense would have been complete.
The Argentine was dismissed by Spurs in November despite guiding them to their first Champions League final just six months earlier. The team's form dipped drastically following a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool at Madrid's Wanda Metropolitano in June, with Pochettino struggling to get the best out of a group of players that had finished in the league's top four for four consecutive seasons.
But the possibility of allowing beer at the stadium itself is not completely off the agenda. That is being discussed, keeping in mind that alcohol is not part of our culture but hospitality is," said Al Thawadi. We want to ensure that everyone has a good time, we want to make sure that what we put in place, that bridges the cultural gaps and cultural differences.

The Wales forward scored a deflected opener after 18 minutes in Salamanca. Unionistas substitute Alvaro Romero levelled with a fine left-footed strike into the top corner after the break. But Juan Gongora's own goal put Real back in front before former Manchester City midfielder Brahim Diaz made sure of victory in added time.
FC Juniors and Amstetten will face each other in the upcoming match in the 2. Liga in Austria. FC Juniors this season have the following results: 9W, 8D and 7L. Meanwhile Amstetten have 8W, 7D and 9L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The visitors had their chances and Dele Alli's neat finish was ruled out for offside, before Kane drew Christoph Zimmermann into a lunging challenge inside the area. The England striker sent Tim Krul the wrong way from the spot to secure a point for the north London side. Norwich remain bottom of the table and six points from safety, while Spurs are up to fifth, two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea who have a game in hand.
They were beaten by West Ham United at Stamford Bridge last month and Lampard said that his front line had to respond. Players have to go one v one if you're an offensive player, play round the corner, mix up your game and break defensive lines because teams aren't stupid," Lampard added. They're well organised and you need to do more in an attacking sense.
Our main area of concern is the lack of cover in central defence with Wes Morgan only just returning from injury and, at 36, his age counting against him. Manager Brendan Rodgers also feels that Filip Benkovic is not yet ready for the step up and it appears that Southampton's Jannik Vestergaard is now top of the manager's wish list. Luke Shaw, a peripheral player at Manchester United, has been linked with us.
Acireale will play against Marsala in the Italian Serie D group I which is a Italian fourth division league. The hosts are in very good shape right now. They have won 3 of their last 5 matches and playing some good football. They also hold a good home record. In contrast, Marsala have lost 4 of their last 5 matches and rotting in the bottom of the table. They have a bad away record as well. But I think in this match they will be highly motivated, therefore I hope them to secure victory here in this Italian lower league match.
Slavia will against BATE in match Belarusian Premier League. My prediction this match could be the win or draw for Slavia. Slavia have not good result on last match due to Slavia has just beaten from Slutsk with score is 3-1. Meanwhile, BATE have not good result on last match due to BATE has just beaten from Energetik-BGU with score is 3-1. Nevertheless, my prediction that Slavia can beat BATE on this match due to Slavia have great result on last 5 match. Slavia have won in 4 match and 1 match is lose. Even though BATE have also the same result with Slavia on last 5 match, I think Slavia will resistance to BATE on this match.
Manchester United can't afford many more mistakes if they want a top four finish. They have had some good results against City this season but just seem to struggle when playing them at Old Trafford. Manchester City have won their last five games and are building up for a big finish to the season with more silverware likely to be won. A repeat of the staggering performance they put in at Old Trafford in the EFL Cup would suffice here. Go for a City away win.
