Riley's assistant Neil Swarbrick gave the system a mark of seven out of 10. Riley added: "Part of the balance of understanding 'clear and obvious' [the terminology used to determine when an on-field error should be overturned] is that there will be times when we don't intervene and everyone thinks we should. But that is a better place to be than intervening and everyone saying 'you shouldn't have done that'.
Varazdin have been looking very poor all season with a 3-8-16 record in 27 matches and with 8 goals in 13 home games they have also been the worst scoring home team in the league. Including the friendlies they have lost 10 of the last 13 matches.
Because the rules are not the best, we have another game, in a break in the season," said Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl, who has managed in the German Bundesliga. I don't understand this but, OK, we have to do it. It's for us not perfect but we must accept it. Spurs and Liverpool will have 11 days off instead of two weeks. If Newcastle have to play their replay at Oxford on 4 February, three days after a Premier League game against Norwich, they will only have 12 days off before their trip to Arsenal.
Despite being under the cosh, Theo Walcott sealed the most unlikely of wins, tapping in after a 90th minute counter-attack with a winner that leaves Watford still struggling one place from the bottom of the league. Watford's impressive revival under the stewardship of Nigel Pearson had earlier looked set to continue as they went two up through Adam Masina's 10th minute goal, his first in the Premier League, and Roberto Pereyra's smart 42nd minute finish.
Juve have won this trophy once in three years, including a 2017 loss to Lazio. The Coppa Italia winners have impressed against the Old Lady of late, with three wins in six meetings. Their improved record this season suggests that the favourites could face an upset. Juve have failed to win in 90 minutes in four of the last seven Super Cups, so we’re backing Lazio Double Chance.
But for me, it is all mental. It just comes down to how much work you want to put in. You couldn't say that when I was playing in Wellington that I would now be at Bayern Munich, but here I am. Anything is possible. Singh's immediate family, including his mother and siblings, are Christian, while his extended family are Sikh and hail from the northern Punjab region of India. Singh's family had a strong focus on education, with his brother and sister achieving "good degrees", but the youngest sibling was allowed to follow his footballing dream as he says "mum sensed maybe I was a little bit different" and had a "gift".

The hosts aren't known for getting hammered at this venue, but their recent lack of attacking power does not bode well ahead of a match against an improving side that has been giving very little away. Having scored an average of 1.63 goals on the road this term, the visitors aren't backed to run riot, but they're backed to edge their way to victory, much like AFC Wimbledon recently did at this venue.
Bournemouth's board is expected to discuss whether to pursue any legal challenge over the goalline technology error in the Aston Villa v Sheffield United match in June. Hawk-Eye apologised after the Blades were denied a goal in the match after the ball had crossed the line.

Traditionally regarded as the best of Italy's provincial sides, Atalanta have blossomed in the last few seasons under Gasperini and finished a best-ever third in Serie A last season to qualify for the Champions League for the first time. They made it past the group stage despite losing their first three matches and are Serie A's leading scorers with 63 goals.
We were 20-odd minutes from the last 16 in our first World Cup. Happy days. While I have tried to forget what happened, that's something that will always stick with me. No other goal I've ever scored comes close to what it felt like running towards thousands of celebrating Scotland fans. It was almost an out-of-body experience because it was so surreal, but I remember it so clearly. In one of my columns last summer, I talked about the wee picture my dad gave me before I went to France.
But City failed to turn their superior possession into further goals and were surprisingly pegged back by a superb Tom Pope header from a pinpoint David Amoo cross. That sparked wild celebrations from more than 8,000 Vale fans who packed the top tiers of the south stand at Etihad Stadium, but their side were level for only seven minutes. City kept pouring forward and Foden set up Sergio Aguero to fire home at the near post, with Legge again getting the final touch.
MODRIC SPARKLES ONCE AGAIN TO LEAVE ODEGAARD IN SHADE Real Sociedad's game at Real Madrid offered Martin Odegaard a chance to make a triumphant return to the Bernabeu after reinventing himself on loan at the Basque side, having had a sour spell at Madrid when he signed for them aged 16. But the upstart Norwegian was upstaged by another blond midfielder as Luka Modric propelled Madrid to a 3-1 win and served up a reminder of why he broke Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi's decade-long grip on the Ballon d'Or last year.
I don’t think we should stop talking about the top four,” he said. For us it’s about concentrating on what we’re doing here and now and not look up, down, sideways.

Only twenty days ago he was utterly inconsolable after his part in the unfortunate injury to Andre Gomes at Goodison Park. The way he has regrouped since then has been admirable, and Son’s performance today confirmed his status as one of the Premier League’s most devastating attacking players.

But on the off chance that you don't yet have Sadio Mane in your side, allow us to gently suggest that this is the week to make it so. On Saturday, Liverpool face Crystal Palace - an opponent for whom Mane has a real affection (or vendetta, depending on your viewpoint). He has scored in each of his last four Premier League games against Roy Hodgson's side. His broader record of seven goals in nine Premier League games against Palace is his best goalscoring record against any English top-flight opponent.
Bonetti returned to the game as a goalkeeping coach at Chelsea as well as with England, while such was his stature and respect within the game that he was also called upon to work at Everton, Newcastle United, Fulham and Manchester City. Quite simply, Bonetti was one of the finest exponents of his art, a true gentleman who was held in complete respect and was still often seen around Stamford Bridge, whether it was appearing on the pitch - where he was always greeted with huge acclaim - or behind the scenes meeting fans.
Wolves are undone by a simple long ball out of defence. Maupay latches onto it, takes a touch to control it and seems to catch Patricio by surprise with an early shot that flies into the corner of the goal. What a goal. GOAL!

They look to improve on their 34-16 season record when hosting the Portland Trail Blazers who are fourth in the same division. Denver are third overall in their conference but only a couple of wins ahead of Utah Jazz in their division, so can't afford any slip-ups.

That’s the lesson we learn in this moment. Liverpool's last game before the season was suspended was a home defeat to Atletico Madrid that saw them eliminated from the Champions League. Klopp says the preparation for the match was "strange" as the threat of the coronavirus was spreading across Europe.
Cologne have lost just one of their last five Bundesliga games. Their impressive run of form has seen them rise out of the Bundesliga's relegation zone. This will give them confidence going into Saturday's fixture. Cologne have also been tough to beat at home recently. They have also lost just one of their last five Bundesliga home games.
Once again, if we just check last year's results, which in my opinion is closer to the truth, we see a 0 x 2 and a 0 x 0 at Nebitci Balkan's stadium. More over, this year we have Nebitci performing better than last year and we will see a more balanced match than in previous years. Despite Ahal being a stronger side I think they will in this match only by a goal 0 x 1 or we can even see a 0 x 0 here. 1 x 0 and 1 x 1 are not discarded too. Interesting match!
The Merseyside club play nine games in four competitions next month and face Aston Villa in the League Cup on Dec. Club World Cup in Qatar.

Juve have the best home form in the division, with a perfect return from their home matches so far. Another big victory in Turin on Tuesday has marked them out as contenders in Europe, so things are going almost perfectly for the hosts. Juventus have picked up 35 in Serie A this season, only Juventus themselves have ever earned more at this stage: in 2018/19 (37) and in 2005/06 (36). They’ve even managed to stay on target despite a lean scoring spell from Cristiano Ronaldo, with Paulo Dybala stepping up to score three in three games.

Ndidi required surgery last month after taking a knock in training. Although the Nigerian played twice at the end of January, Rodgers wants him to recover fully before he is selected again. No player has made more tackles and interceptions in the Premier League this season than the 23-year-old Ndidi who has helped Leicester climb to third in the table.
I feel like I've left out a whole lot of strikers but when you look at Van Persie's goal-scoring record at Manchester United, it's hard to argue with. De Bruyne the best since Scholes’ Freddie Clayton’s XI: Ben Foster (Watford); Kyle Walker (Spurs), Jonny Evans (West Brom), Virgil van Dijk (Southampton), Andrew Robertson (Hull); N’Golo Kante (Chelsea), Kevin De Bruyne (Man City), Paul Scholes (Man Utd); Luis Suarez (Liverpool), Robin van Persie (Arsenal), Jamie Vardy (Leicester) Manager: Carlo Ancelotti (Everton) Irresistible opportunity to have the two ginger masters in central midfield - Scholes' return for Manchester United from retirement was emotional, and KDB is the only player since fit to lace his shoes.

Both sides come into this game with the sole intention of winning all three points and pulling further away from the relegation zone.

It was Gigi Riva. When I grew up he was my first hero. Later on, Maradona was the one I was using to look up to. I used to watch every single movement, everything Diego used to do in training. Even when he was doing his own laces!"Funniest moment? Gianfranco did not reveal whether he wore that jumper to the Chelsea Christmas do.

The main thing I like about Dyche is that he is never too up and too down," Kightly told Talksport. If you lose a game 3-0 on a Saturday, he is not going mental and having you in on a Sunday, and running you. At the same time, if you win 3-0 and play really well, he is not saying that you're brilliant and we've made it.
