Dan Gosling stole the ball in midfield as Arsenal attempted to play out from the back and the midfielder, who scored the winner against Chelsea two weeks ago, continued his run into the box to slot home as makeshift left-back Bukayo Saka was exposed. However, Arsenal retained their composure – and dominance over the ball – to level matters just past the hour mark when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang produced an instinctive finish to fire past Aaron Ramsdale when a deflected shot ran into his path.

GremioGetty Images FULL STORY 19:10 - Liverpool reverse furlough decision Liverpool have listened to the cacophanous volume of pelters being aimed their way since they said they were going to take state cash to furlough their workers, and announced they will front up the whole wedge instead. FULL STORY 18:20 - Italian referee sceptical of VAR during coronavirus "In some cases for the video assistants today, we use narrow spaces, such as vans, where the referees work in a space of two square metres, without a safe distance between them and other workers," Marcello Nicci - the head of Italy's referees' association (AIA) - told RAI television.
Harry Maguire and Anthony Martial's goals helped Manchester United win 2-0 against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge as the hosts were left to bemoan VAR. See alsoChelsea v Manchester United - Premier League LIVE The French striker scored on the stroke of half-time before the Englishman sealed the win, but that only told half the story as the Blues had two goals correctly chalked off, while Maguire was perhaps lucky to stay on the pitch after appearing to kick Michy Batshuayi in the groin.
Getty Images The 29-year-old also helped England secure qualification for Euro 2020 as well as a third-place finish at the inaugural UEFA Nations League and reached the landmark of 50 caps in March.

Tottenham will be at home against Olympiakos Piraeus in Group Stage of European Champions League. Mourinho boys have another test that they have to pass with all means, after beating West Ham United away 3-2, goals from Son Heung-Min 36 Minutes, Lucas 43 Minutes and Kane 49 Minutes. They are in 2nd position in Group B with 7 points from 4 matches, scoring 13 goals against 9, winning after 4 games 2 matches, 1 draw and 1 game lost, while Olympiakos Piraeus are last in the group with 1 point from 4 matches, scoring 5 goals against 10, winning in all 0 matches, 1 draw and 3 lost game, I believe that the host will give out everything again to win here.
Then reports emerged that the tamperer might be an undercover investigator employed by Morelos' wife. We haven't seen backtracking like it since Michael Jackson and his fans did the moonwalk, although Morelos and his wife did both issue denials.

This is a big opportunity for Lazio to force a twist in the title race by defeating Inter to leapfrog them in the table. Recent results suggest that there is a decent chance Lazio can do it. Last weekend, Inter roared to victory in the Milan derby. While their comeback was impressive, their initial two-goal-deficit failings weren't.

For Steven Gerrard, the season barring Europe is done so he's got to start planning for next season now. Really poor stuff from Rangers. Gerrard had explained that Alfredo Morelos, 23, was allowed to return to his Colombian homeland last week but reported back 24 hours late. And the Rangers manager responded by leaving him out of the match day squad altogether. It's poor from Morelos and I think it shows good discipline from Steven Gerrard to leave him out, good leadership," said Thompson.

One option is Salomon Rondon, the 30-year-old Venezuelan who has linked up with Rafael Benitez at Dalian Yifang, as the Chinese Super League has been postponed. Paper Round’s view: Rondon can be a sluggish targetman, but he is also often a threatening focal point for sides that play direct. His finishing is acceptable without being remarkable, but having left it to such a late stage, United now need to just get through any striker rather than dither and dawdle and look for the best strikers available - they just need someone to put on a shirt and run.
Players should only compromise when owners start to make their own concessions. Read the full story Mourinho criticised for park workout Jose Mourinho has been criticised for taking part in park workout for his Tottenham players. The Telegraph reports that he oversaw training for Tanguy Ndombele and Davinson Sanchez, as well as Ryan Sessegnon, in a session with Hadley Common in North London.
Rennes will also be looking to harness the power of Roazhon Park as they host this match as their home ground has been pivotal to their success this season. They have won four of their seven matches there in the league including victories over Saint-Étienne and PSG so Angers should be wary here as they travel north.
It was a marginal call but with referee Stuart Attwell having not blown his whistle, Shelvey continued his run before putting the ball past Sheffield United goalkeeper Dean Henderson, whose attempt at a save appeared half-hearted as he perhaps expected the strike to be ruled out. But, after a review by the video assistant referee, the goal was given. I was told at the start of the season that the linesman would not put his flag up and let it go.
They registered a 4-1 win away to Real Valladolid in their last match, after earlier beating Villarreal 1-0. In their last five league matches they scored in four, but on only one occasion had they scored more than once – the 4-1 win over Valladolid. They also have one clean sheet in their last five league matches.
I'm not sure since when Hendo is involved in offensive set-pieces, usually for most of the time he was protection, so now we have found a way to involve him as well, and that he scores that goal is obviously incredible," said the German coach. He played an unbelievable game again tonight . While the players were all in "outstanding shape", there was still plenty to improve all round, the demanding Klopp added.
That was the first topic discussed when Hakimi spoke to me for a quick Q&A. What inspired your protest? I'm from Africa, my father is from Africa. I'm a little bit a black guy. I spoke with Sancho before the Paderborn game; he wrote 'Justice for George Floyd' on my T-shirt and said: "You need to score and take the T-shirt up to show the people. We both did it. It was great to be one of the players to do this thing to show the people.
Barcelona lost just three league matches throughout 2018/19 en route to securing their 26th La Liga title, so they will be bitterly disappointed to have registered the same amount of defeats already this term after just 12 games.
Heracles haven’t lost at home against Den Haag in any of the pairs last seven encounters in Almelo and three of the pairs’ last five meetings have produced over 2.5 goals, so you can start to see why we have backed a 3-0 home win this weekend.
When German minnows Saarbrucken reached the semi-finals of the German Cup, they joined a list of underdogs ripping up the established order in cup competitions across Europe this season. The South West Regional League side's dramatic 7-6 penalty shootout victory over Fortuna Dusseldorf ensured they became the first team from the German fourth division to reach the last four in the German Cup's 85-year history.
Saint-Étienne haven’t been tremendous at home but they face a Montpellier side seemingly incapable of performing well away from the Stade de la Mosson so we're edging this one in favour of les Verts. We're backing this to finish 2-1 to the hosts. Montpellier should get on the scoresheet as the home side have just one clean sheet in their last five but ultimately we see Puel's men getting the three points.
Host side did have big loss in the previous round, but without that match, they are averaging around two goal per game in the league. Team is at the bottom, but they should be able to defend here, and to avoid another huge defeat from the favorite.
The dilemma: Does a quiet season mean it’s time to move on? In the summer of 2018, Zaha put pen-to-paper on a new five-year deal – committing him to Crystal Palace who would have been relieved to secure the signature of their talisman. Despite the obvious talents he possesses, a glance at the statistics will tell you that Zaha has endured a relatively quiet 2019/20 campaign to date.
Merseyside club now 16 points clear at the top of the league standings. For me, we do have a way of doing things. You can see other teams have done well. You can see Juergen spent four years building his team and they're doing well now," Solskjaer added. United have 34 points from 24 league matches this season - 11 fewer than at this stage of the last campaign - but Solskjaer will continue to plan for the long-term at Old Trafford.
