But within eight minutes of coming on, Irish midfielder Hourihane swept the ball in from Jack Grealish's lay-off to score with just Villa's second shot on target. Tom Heaton then produced a fine reflex save to deny Norwich substitute Onel Hernandez as Villa held on for a crucial victory. Although they remain third-bottom, Villa are back within a point of safety while Norwich have slipped below Watford to the bottom of the table.
No win in seven means that Napoli have dropped out of the top six, though there's reason to feel that their luck is about to change. They've only lost two of their last seven and are clearly a tough side to beat. Moreover, Tuesday's 4-0 win in the Champions League should've raised the confidence levels of Saturday's hosts.
Hearts fan and assistant manager Gary Locke spent nine years at the club as a playerLocke: "There were a lot of nerves before the game because of the magnitude of the game. In a cup final, as much as you're confident, there's another side to it. You're thinking 'if we get beat today we're never going to hear the end of it'. I'm a big Hearts fan - I knew that if there's one game we cannot get beat, it's this one.
Troy Deeney compounded a miserable day for United as he registered his first league goal since April with a penalty after Aaron Wan-Bissaka's foul on Sarr. Not even the introduction of Paul Pogba - returning after a near three-month absence - as a substitute could raise United, who failed to register a shot on target until the hosts were already two goals ahead. And while Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side did attempt to chase the game, Watford also had chances to add to their tally and deserved only their third league victory ever over United.
Finland captain Tim Sparv "We've been looking forward to this for a really long time. It would have been the first time that Finland was in a European Championship so it's a bit sad," Sparv told Reuters. But in the general perspective, in the big picture, football is a really small matter. Now it's about life and death and trying to control the spread of the virus, so it's a good decision.

But still…this is weird. HAT TIP "It is never about my skill when I am compared to other strikers,” he said. My one-on-one dribbling is good. I can do a step-over. I can beat a player. I remember one comment from a journalist that United should not sign Lukaku because he is not an ‘intelligent’ footballer.
On paper this should be an easy task for Lyon as they travel to the home of a third division side for this cup match. Les Gones usually progress okay in this competition but haven't won it since 2012 so Rudi Garcia will be motivated to start his first season at the club with some silverware, first he needs to get past Bourg-en-Bresse.
Expert view: Pump the brakes on any Haaland move but uncertainty for Odegaard The Debate: Why Vicente Guaita is the most underrated player in the Premier League Everton were rumoured to have looked at a player-plus-cash swap deal while Arsenal threw themselves into the fray later on leaving Palace with no choice but to slap a reported £80 million asking price on Zaha’s head.
Two first-half goals in six minutes from Philip Billing and Nathan Ake proved enough to secure all three points - even though the Cherries found themselves down to 10 men in the early stages of the second half, midfielder Jefferson Lerma shown a second yellow card for a foul on Jack Grealish. With a man advantage, Villa found a way back into the game courtesy of £8. Mbwana Samatta, who became the first Tanzanian to score in the Premier League with a debut goal on 70 minutes.
Having failed to win in their last four games in all competitions, Leipzig were desperate to bounce back and Lukas Klostermann's 18th minute goal quickly put them in the driving seat. Patrik Schick, who had set up Klostermann, then grabbed one himself, heading in his sixth league goal in the 39th minute before Nordi Mukiele latched on to a deep cross to fire in their third goal a minute after the restart.
The 27-year-old sustained an injury in their 2-0 league defeat to Manchester City last week, his second match since returning from a hamstring problem that had ruled him out for nearly a month.

City director of football Txiki Begiristain has said he is expecting a "strange" transfer window given the campaign will not end completely until the end of August, with the new one starting three weeks later on 12 September. We have to be ready," he told City's official website. We have less time than ever, so people will have to move fast. We still have the Champions League, so we have to wait to move forward.
Mario Vrancic could have doubled the Canaries' lead in the final seconds of the first half but the Bosnian midfielder's right-footed effort from long range was saved by Henderson diving to his left. Blades defender Chris Basham was shown a red card 16 minutes from time for a poor challenge on midfielder Kenny McLean, but he was asked to return to the pitch after the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) deemed that his tackle deserved only a yellow.
Chelsea were calm and in control. Spurs barely threatened and Chelsea were up and running again and in the top four after run of four defeats in their last five Premier League games. Mourinho will contest both Chelsea's goals could have been prevented as Spurs fell asleep at a short corner in the 12th minute which allowed Willian to cut inside and curl one of those trademark right-foot finishes into the bottom corner.
Let's start to think about Angola elite division. If we think about that there is not any fixed matches than this is away win. Also we must take in mind that for the first time we will have this league on all coupons in the world. Home side do far had just two wins in the league and 13 points won overall. From them you can't expect a lot. This team is main candidate for relegation. They are for many games without win. Visitors can't go up or down. With 38 points they are safe from relegation and far from top place. So they are better and they should win. Odds are excellent for away win.
They both have flaws, but I'd still say Spurs are more solid. Lawro's prediction: 2-0Scotty's prediction: I like Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta; I think he has got some good ideas. He just needs a couple of transfer windows to implement them, but if I were him I would be spending every penny I've got to keep hold of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang because they are never going to attract another player as good as him.
Witness his tongue-out, knee-slide celebration after bagging at Wolves, his gleeful embrace with James Ward-Prowse after netting after Norwich or the grin on his face after his semi-Le Tissier effort to open the scoring against Tottenham. Then there is the puffed out cheeks and steely glare that followed the first of his hero-making two goals in the 4-0 Carabao Cup win at south-coast rivals Portsmouth.
West Ham are currently 17th in the Premier League, just one point above the drop zone although they do have a game in hand.

For me football is an easy target sometimes," he told Sky Sports on Tuesday. It's unfair to call on any individual or footballers. I know players do a great amount of work in the community and players are doing a lot to help this situation. Discussions are taking place between players and clubs, what kind of contribution they'll make.

Zaha revealed he had received several abusive messages on social media before Sunday's trip to Aston Villa, a game they lost 2-0. Media playback is not supported on this device Jenas wants social media companies to do more to tackle racism The Premier League said: "This behaviour is completely unacceptable and the Premier League stands alongside Wilfried Zaha in opposing this, and discrimination in any form.
You have to be careful with being too reactionary and (the) ban lifted, defeat at Everton. Just as people at the start of the season were saying 'we've got all these young boys, we don't need any players'. At) a club like Chelsea, it's a balance. You have a strong squad which I believe we have, but you have to look at 'can we strengthen?' And there will be times.
Goa is currently the leader of this competition and will try to continue the good results after four consecutive victories. Nevertheless, Bengaluru is a tough team to beat and at home will be very hard for Goa to be able to get the win here. Looking at the market on this contest, the price for Bengaluru has dropped almost 10% since the opening odds on the 1x2 market. For that reason, we will follow the trend here and back Bengaluru on the 1x2 market to get the win at home on this match here against Goa that will take place this Friday.
There are still some issues to sort out but there is hunger and togetherness in this Gunners team and they are definitely on the rise. Their fans know it too. It has been so volatile at Emirates Stadium in the past few seasons but there seems to be some patience right now, even when mistakes are made. Overall it is obvious they are better organised, especially out of possession, under Arteta but it is still slow, slow progress and they are going to have the odd slip-up.
You may not have ever watched a basketball game in your life, but you knew who Kobe Bryant was. RIP Mamba. COMING UP If that doesn’t interest you then there is some more FA Cup action as Arsenal travel to face Bournemouth this evening. Nick Miller is busy hosing down his back garden and dusting off his shooting boots to try and recreate Harry Maguire’s goal.
In the last 2 consecutive rounds, Inter were held in a draw, which made them removed by Juventus with 4 points more. That gap is not too large, but that shows all the weak mentality and unstable bravery of Inter in the important moments of the championship race. This match, Inter will play at home of Giuseppe Meazza against Cagliari - a great opponent in the 2019/20 season. Cagliari currently ranks 7th in the standings and has many opportunities to compete for the European Cup. Last 6 consecutive matches in all competitions, Cagliari did not win. Therefore, in this trip to Milan, Cagliari was underestimated
Mr Watford was absolutely magnificent throughout this match. The striker occupied Dejan Lovren so completely from making his customary interventions that he reduced the Liverpool defender to no more than a mere bystander on so many occasions and the reason they conceded the first goal. Deeney then set up Ismaila Sarr's second goal with the most incredible awareness before putting the finishing touches to a glorious performance by scoring the third.
Sergi Darder replaces Fernando Calero. Posted at 65' Foul by Clément Lenglet (Barcelona). Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to secure Paul Pogba's long-term future at Old Trafford. Prior to the coronavirus pandemic, it had appeared that the France midfielder was set to leave United this summer. The 27-year-old World Cup winner has been linked with moves to both his former club Juventus and Real Madrid.

The visitors dominated possession but created few clear-cut chances, although Patrick Bamford chested over from a teasing cross and Stuart Dallas struck the crossbar on 63 minutes. Michael Morrison almost put Reading ahead midway through the second half, but his effort from six yards flew over after John Swift's ball caused confusion in the Leeds defence.

One big revelation he offers though is that thing that the refs do when a decision goes back to Stockley Park for review - where they touch their earpiece like they're listening to something - well, it's just for show. Yep. Most of the time, you don't need to do it," he reveals. It's just to show the crowd you're waiting for a decision. Well, the scales have truly fallen from our eyes. Test how much you know about the man/myth/legend Mike Dean with this quiz.
All in all, we think that the dip in form of the hosts and the excellent recent performances of the visitors means that Northampton should be confident of a positive result. However, given that Exeter are strong on home soil and, whilst Northampton are not exactly poor away from home, there is still room for improvement, means that we should proceed with caution. With this in mind, we are backing the Cobblers to either win or draw on the double chance market.
We have to look forward and go to the next game. After a goalless first half, Jeonbuk took the lead when Sydney defender Luke Brattan directed the ball into his own net five minutes after the break, but Trent Buhagiar levelled just six minutes later. Le Fondre's penalty and Choi's sending off should have been enough for Sydney to secure the points, only for Han's late goal - which came after a long-range attempt from Murilo had come back off the post - to deny Steve Corica's side.
It is also probably no coincidence that Leicester's title challenge - admittedly unlikely against an imperious Liverpool side - faded when Ndidi suffered an injury in early January. His return is significant for the Foxes, who beat West Ham 4-1 on his comeback last week to end a three-game winless run, and who face Aston Villa in the second leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final on Tuesday with the tie level at 1-1.
Then a new coach came in and put me in midfield but it was so strange because the first game I played there I was substituted in the 32nd minute. After that I went back to basics - take the ball, look around, pass, take the ball, look around, pass. Kante is brilliant but there's no-one better than Ndidi'Keeping it simple has undoubtedly worked wonders for Ndidi and statistically he is now one of the best players in his position.
Introducing academy graduates like Mason Mount, Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham has helped created a feel-good factor and made light of last summer's transfer ban. And with the club occupying fourth place in the Premier League, Lineker asked if there were parts of the job he still had to come to terms with. You need really good people around you, particularly a good wife because they are the ones that can really take it, like a loss and your evening can be slightly ruined which is sometimes my fault because I should be able to let go," Lampard replied.
It felt like a bit of a statement to me. Yes, everything has happened to make football feel different, but we will always have this song and no-one will ever stop us playing it. It was a nice feeling to have, and it will mean a lot next time I hear it too. Flags and banners replaced fans as Liverpool returned to Anfield amid the coronavirus pandemic with Wednesday's win over Crystal PalaceThe title winner who got relegated tooAfter waiting 30 years you will take a title win any way it comes, but I have had a strange one myself already.
That freedom has reaped Grealish and Villa rewards. A wide forward, though, he is not. Such has been his excellence, Pep Guardiola, whose Manchester City faces Grealish in the League Cup final on Sunday, described him as "one of the best players in the league. Before adding: "I am a big fan of him. Yet, would a perceived maverick and freewheeler of Grealish's nature represent a good fit in Guardiola's choreographed, overly-synchronised brand of football? Well, it was perhaps telling that the Manchester City manager told reporters his club could not afford the Villa captain when asked about potentially signing Grealish.
Liverpool's 30-year wait in numbers'No sleep and one heck of a party'Liverpool full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold added that breaking the points record was a further motivation for the club. I think we have got a chance of that becoming real," he told BBC North West Tonight. The points record is one that is difficult to beat, but I think if we can surpass that, then it will hopefully stand for a really long time.

Smaller club asks authorities to be able to make an emergency signing of their own. Smaller club told their stinker - entirely not of their own incompetence - is a tough spot but they won't be able to sign an emergency forward. Smaller club, quite incandescent with rage, and rightly so: " We are facing unfair regulations, which threatens the integrity of the competition and the right of all clubs to compete on equal terms, and that has caused huge and serious damage to the club.
The coach's position has long been fragile, however, due to presiding over shock Champions League exits to AS Roma in 2018 and Liverpool in 2019 after taking a three-goal lead in each tie. Xavi, who had a glittering 17-year career with Barca and is their leading appearance maker, has only been in management since July when he took over Al Sadd, who he joined as a player in 2015 after leaving the Catalans.
Furthermore, in the build-up you had players drinking mudslingers with Rod Stewart, hanging out of stretch limos on Sunset Boulevard, appearing on Grandstand drunk and - apparently - heckling John McEnroe at the Australian Open. David Coleman, sunstroke & cheerio KennyThe latter two incidents took place in Melbourne, scene of the qualification play-off second leg with Australia. Scotland had set up that tie on a wretched night in Cardiff, their joy stolen by the death of Jock Stein in the immediate aftermath of a 1-1 draw.
I see a difference in terms of quality between these two sides, while it is true Wolfsburg finished just 2nd their own group stage in the Europa League and Malmo won their own group, Malmo was really lucky to be in a group with Copenhagen, Dynamo Kyiv and Lugano from Switzerland, modest clubs and nowhere near the quality of Wolfsburg who have been restarting the season in Germany for more than a month right now and with excellent results lately in the league as well winning games on the road as well.
He is 11. His whole family has to come down from Scotland. They are spending 39 nights away from home, in a hotel. It is Christmas. Why should any child have to go through it? I know what he is going through. If I can make one day out of, in Kieran's case 40, better than the one before, he will remember it and there might not be as many lows.
