Results then fell away before another Brazilian league success in 1992. But after that - and despite signing Romario just one year after he spearheaded the national team's triumph at USA 94 - Flamengo spent years in both a football and financial wilderness, flirting with relegation and bankruptcy. How did they bounce back? In five months, Portuguese manager Jorge Jesus turned Flamengo aroundOne particularly crucial step in the club's revival was the decision to reorganise the club's finances and deal with a debt that in 2013 amounted to £200m.
In all three cases, the current top four would stay the same, happily fulfilling Uefa's hope that the 2020-21 European participants would be decided on "sporting merit" - Paris St-Germain as champions and Marseille would qualify for the Champions League group stage with Rennes heading into the third qualifying round. Lille would finish fourth to take Ligue 1's only Europa League qualifying place. However, if the two Europa League places available from the domestic cup competitions are given to the teams finishing fifth and sixth in the league, expect squabbling: Lyon, Montpellier, Reims, Nantes and Nice would all have a claim.
However, Bayern are said to be unlikely to entertain the idea of such an important player leaving during the season. Paper Round's view: Kimmich is an unbelievable footballer. He would certainly fit the Barcelona style of play and has consistently shown his strengths lie at both ends of the pitch, offensively and defensively.
Under Solskjaer, United have won 73% of the Premier League games in which they have had less possession than their opponents, compared to just 36% when they have enjoyed more. In the first half it could have easily have been my testimonial," added United's Norwegian boss. It was very subdued, slow, no urgency, no tempo and the only encouragement their crowd got was when we gave them set-plays. And we gifted them two goals in the second half as well.

Leicester conceded just 0.375 goals per 90 minutes during their eight-match winning surge, though bar a couple of standout results at Southampton and Aston Villa, their attacking output has been more efficient than explosive.
Clash of styles in top-four race Midfielder Martin Odegaard, 21, has been in good form for Real SociedadThe race for Champions League qualification is extremely close, with five teams separated by five points. Third place is currently occupied by Sevilla, who will get the ball rolling on Thursday at home to city rivals Real Betis, but two highly contrasting teams are in hot pursuit. Real Sociedad are arguably the most exciting young side in Europe, with classy playmaker Martin Odegaard supported by midfielder Mikel Merino, winger Mikel Oyarzabal and Swedish striker Alexander Isak to create a free-flowing collective.
After you win, you don't want to stop winning. You become addicted to that - and that is what we have to try and implement at this club. Why Beckford wants another Leeds FA Cup shock - 10 years onWatch Arsenal v Leeds and the fourth-round draw live on the BBCQuiz: Name the Arsenal and Leeds line-ups from 2004Can Leeds produce an upset? Ladhood star Liam Williams takes on LawroThe Premier League side will be without defender Calum Chambers, who has been ruled out for at least six months with a ruptured cruciate ligament.
West Ham defender Ryan Fredericks will be out for six weeks after undergoing surgery on his shoulder on Wednesday. Fredericks, 27, damaged ligaments in his right shoulder in West Ham's 2-0 defeat by Manchester City last week. West Ham's head of medical Richard Collinge said the surgery had gone "exactly as planned" and Fredericks would return "in early to mid-April". It comes a day after January loan signing Tomas Soucek was ruled out for three weeks with a hip injury.
Women's football faces "concrete risks" and could be hit much harder by coronavirus than the men's game, world players' union Fifpro has warned. Jonas Baer-Hoffmann, Fifpro's general secretary, is concerned investments in the women's game may stall. Women's football saw widespread global growth in participation and attendances after 2019's World Cup. It has been on an upward trend, but a positive trend can still be quite fragile," Baer-Hoffmann said.
This is Dembele's 10th injury since arriving from Borussia Dortmund in 2017 for 105 million euros ($115 million). The forward initially hurt his right hamstring playing against his former side in November. Dembele missed five months of his debut season due to a hamstring problem in his left leg that required surgery and has made five starts in all competitions this season.
I saw Al-Hidd lately winning with 2-0 away from home at the title holders from Al Riffa and they are quite attacking minded side even in away games at tough sides from Bahrain while at home their games mostly end up with them scoring a bunch of goals and really high scoring games at the same time for example they won 3-1 with same Al-Shabbab side in the league cup also winning the return leg on the road with 2-0 in the end.
Real will be without James Rodriguez for the game, but could welcome back Gareth Bale who has not played for the club since October, but was involved in both games as Wales qualified for Euro 2020 this week. Barcelona, who sit top of the table ahead of Real on goal difference, head to bottom side Leganes earlier on Saturday.
FIFA said in a statement on Wednesday that it would "decide at a later stage when to schedule the new FIFA Club World Cup which was due to take place in June/July 2021. The decision comes after Euro 2020 and Copa America were pushed back a year, meaning the new-look 24-team Club World Cup will not launch in 2021 as the coronavirus pandemic takes continues to wreak havoc with the sporting calendar.
They made a slow start when the Premier League resumed last month, but now they are back at the same levels as they were earlier in the season. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Samuel's prediction: Sheffield United are very good at home and so tough defensively. Originally I had them to win 1-0 but it hurt me to go with an Everton loss so I am going for a draw. Samuel on what it is like supporting Everton from afar, and his hopes for success: "I have a load of friends in England who see Everton differently to the way I do.
Valencia are also interested, as are current Italian champions Juventus, the Sun reports. Paper Round’s view: Manchester City have proved adroit at signing the best young talent from abroad, though the players signed are yet to prove their worth at senior level. The race for young players rarely seems to pay off in the end, but given Juventus’ performance in the transfer market their interest should not be discounted in the youngster.
LONDON, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Heading the ball in training will be outlawed for children under the age of 12 in Scotland under proposals being considered by the Scottish Football Association after a study found former professionals were at more risk of dementia. Scotland would become the first European association to ban heading for juniors if the proposals are adopted.

Chelsea should be favorites going to this game but their recent results have left a lot of questions over their ability. While they have a better run of form compared to Bournemouth, they go to this game very low on morale, having registered two losses in their last three matches. Bournemouth have a poor run going to this game but having won three of the last five meetings, and with three wins in their last five home matches as well as two straight home wins in the league, they will feel they can contest for something here. They have scored in four of their last five home matches and in three of the five they have scored two or more. A good bet here would be on a double chance; either Chelsea or Bournemouth to win but no draw.
Yes, the federation continues to discriminate against the women in their wages and working conditions," the statement read. Kirsten Schlewitz, a US journalist who specialises in women's football, told the BBC that public perception is also favourable to the plight of the female players. Almost all fans in the US see the women's team as one of the few things that have gone right in US football," she said.
The authorities - and the clubs themselves - remain determined to complete the campaign.

Familiarity clearly breeds success for the Blades. It's also a dressing room without any prima donnas, perhaps as a result of the players' unglamorous routes to the big time. Midfielder John Fleck and forward Billy Sharp, as well as Basham, O'Connell and stand-in keeper Simon Moore, were all regular starters when Sheffield United won League One with 100 points in 2016-17. Some of Wilder's key players have even tasted non-league football on their way to the Premier League.
Norwich failed to register in a dismal five of the eight away games they've contested since their promotion, and with Leicester's defensive axis of Kasper Schmeichel, Jonny Evans, Caglar Soyuncu and Wilfred Ndidi in superb form, we think there is value in backing City to win to nil this weekend.
This time it was City who dug deep to level as Hemp held off Maren Mjelde to score the final goal of a thrilling game and secure a valuable point. At the other end of the table, Ebony Salmon's goal 15 minutes from time gave Bristol City a 1-0 away win over Birmingham City and moved them up to tenth in the table, while Manchester United scored an impressive 3-2 win away to Everton.

They added that they would not be "bullied into silence". Phew. SPFL demand proof & Hearts lash out - SundayEaster Sunday started with Ross County chairman Roy MacGregor pleading for unity, but that was soon forgotten as the claim and counter-claim recommenced. SPFL chairman Murdoch MacLennan emerged from the shadows to demand that interim Rangers chairman Douglas Park either prove or withdraw his club's claims; to insist that league places "must" be determined before prize money could be released; and to confirm that Dundee's vote only arrived after a written request from the club that "any attempted vote should not be considered as cast".
Do you remember when Jordan Henderson was a joke? The Debate: Why Virgil van Dijk should win PFA Player of the Year The Debate: Why Kevin de Bruyne should win PFA Player of the Year It’s a sign of just how far the Liverpool captain has come that it can be hard to think back, but there was a (sustained) period of time where he was the butt of most jokes directed at the club.
Bayern are at Bayer Leverkusen earlier on Saturday, so the gap could be ten points by the time Dortmund kick off against Hertha. They returned to winning ways with a 6-1 win at Paderborn on Sunday. That was despite the fact their first goal wasn’t scored until the 54th minute. Jadon Sancho scored a hat-trick, ending a run of five games without a goal.

After a tough trip to Italy and a poor 1-1 draw at Granada last weekend, the host's simply don't look well placed at all to take on Barca this weekend, especially considering that the Catalan giants have found their mojo again.
Two giants of Belgian football clash in the cup on Thursday night. It’s not been a great year for Anderlecht so far, but the hosts will be hoping to build on a mixed campaign with success in this quarter-final clash. They are taking on league leaders Club Brugge, a side who have just set up a 2020 meeting with Manchester United in the Europa League.

Tottenham Hotspur against Olympiakos Piraeus in match UEFA Champions League. My prediction this match could be won for Tottenham Hotspur with margin score minimal is 3 goals. Tottenham Hotspur have good result on last 4 match in Champions League due to Tottenham Hotspur have won in 2 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose. Meanwhile, Olympiakos Piraeus have not good result on last 4 match in Champions League due to Olympiakos Piraeus only have draw in 1 match and 3 match is lose. Therefore, my prediction that Tottenham Hotspur can defeat Olympiakos Piraeus due to Tottenham Hotspur need win 1 match to make sure the next round. Therefore, I'm sure that Tottenham Hotspur will be win and make much score.
Sancho also became the second Englishman to score in consecutive Champions League appearances for a non-English club, after Chris Sutton with Celtic in 2004. Dortmund's Julian Brandt has scored (two) or provided assists (three) for five Champions League goals this season; he had only scored or assisted once in his previous four seasons in the competition with former club Bayer Leverkusen before this (one goal, no assists in 21 appearances).
While Celtic have been very difficult to beat in recent weeks, the hoops haven't been hammering most of their opponents. Celtic have scored exactly two goals in five of their last seven Scottish Premiership games. This includes their most recent fixture versus their upcoming opponents, St Mirren.
Levante are only on the 13th place in the league but at home they have scored at least 2 goals in 5 of the last 6 games. But they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 7 of the last 8 games at home.
Match of Championship tournament in England. Team Middlesbrough will play at home with team Charlton Athletic. My bet will be over 3 goals. Both clubs are in the middle part of the table. Middlesbrough scored 5 and missed 8 goals at last 5 matches played. Their defense is not well. But their attack is not bad. Charlton Athletic scored and missed goals at every last 4 matches. We see the same situation. I predict open football with these facts. Both clubs need points and they have motivation to scoring goals. I recommend to try this bet with for good odds .

Therefore, if the earliest a deal would be made is 2021, Haaland becomes a serious alternative option for Real Madrid. If the £65 million release clause is compared to an eye-watering transfer fee for Mbappe, it could be a no-brainer. However, Haaland hasn't been performing at the highest level for the same amount of time as the French forward and he's only just joined Dortmund.

Spanish La Liga match day 32. Fc Villarreal welcomes fc Valencia. It will be a game where nobody will really dare to go forward. Both teams make it a point of honor in the match to be the favorites. Villarreal are on a winning streak after the break. Valencia, on the other hand, does not share a similar trait in the calendar. Their only win after the restart was at home against Osasuna. The visitor had lost his last two straight road matches and has a poor record in his schedules outside the countryside, unlike the host with a decent home run. It will be a competitive game and neither of the teams will be victorious I expect.
