Gray had an early penalty saved by West Ham's returning keeper Lukasz Fabianski but Iheanacho headed Leicester into a deserved lead in the 40th minute. West Ham's one flowing move of the first half saw them level with Pablo Fornals slotting home. Leicester regained the lead in the 56th minute with a superb counter-attack finished off by Gray and the visitors could have won by a bigger margin as West Ham's relegation worries grew.
This was a Barcelona managed by Terry Venables, with Gary Lineker and Mark Hughes in attack, and a smattering of Spaniards who had gone deep in the previous summer's World Cup. And yet they left a heaving Tannadice beaten after Kevin Gallacher's astonishing early goal. The wee man said he'd practised it in training, but I must have been off that day," says Ferguson, who had been ineligible until that stage.
Sunderland have only lost one of their nine home games this season and Blackpool have only lost once on the road and have drawn six of their nine away games, which suggests that a draw is the most likely result this weekend.

Pressure now on Spurs? After Liverpool's U-turn, Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust have urged their club to reverse the decision to furlough 550 non-playing staff. The Warm-Up Liverpool do the right thing, but let’s not praise them too much. Read Nick Miller's Warm-Up here. Dressing room of Liverpool before the Premier League match between Liverpool FC and Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on October 27, 2019 in Liverpool, United Kingdom.
Lawro's prediction: 2-1Steve's prediction: I am going to this one. Norwich gave us a game at Carrow Road but I am going to have to say Spurs win - and I am going to go with a comfortable 2-0. Steve on Spurs' season: Essentially this is the same Tottenham team that went to the Champions League final, but things have slipped so far since then. The players obviously dug really deep to get as far as we did in Europe but losing in Madrid was a real anti-climax and to pick themselves up and do it all again under the same manager this season was just too big an ask.
I am not the right person to talk about this situation," Silva said. You are asking me and I don't have the answer. Since I joined the club, until my last day I will be professional. Everton have lost eight of their last 11 games and Silva added: "I understand why you ask the questions and if we were winning you would not ask. I am not saying you don't have to put the questions but it is not for me to answer them.
Clubs have also failed to advance beyond the group stages of the Champions' League – and have reached even that phase only twice. Orban, a decent club player and lifelong football fan, has considered it a personal mission to turn that around. He elevated sports to front and centre in his government’s priorities and has made lavish funds available for football to create a world-class infrastructure.
It wasn’t,” he said, “the most diplomatic of discussions. Duran Duran’s Simon Le Bon and his wife Yasmin tried to get in the party and were refused entry. Even those who hardly ever had a drink, like Beckham, tucked in like students in happy hour. I am happy to admit,” said Beckham, “that I was totally legless.
Edin Dzeko fired the fifth-placed visitors in front at the end of the first half, but Atalanta, who are fourth, found a deserved equaliser through Jose Palomino early in the second. However, Pasalic stole the show in the 59th minute by curling a sensational strike into the top corner 19 seconds after coming on as a substitute.
Letting a two-goal lead slip on Tuesday night was an obvious disappointment for Real Madrid, although they performed extremely well for the majority of the contest and a damn sight better than they did when going down 3-0 in Paris at the start of their Champions League campaign. While Real still have their final Group A fixture to fulfil against Club Brugge in a fortnight’s time, Zidane can effectively put Europe’s premier club competition to bed now for a couple of months with progress to the next round confirmed.
These two sides have both managed to move clear of the drop zone so far, but can they move further away from danger with a victory this weekend? Both Reading and Birmingham are focused on survival, but who will edge the meeting at the Madjeski?
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. I arrived in England in November 1996 and didn't know there was a tradition to go out for Christmas lunch.
He could give us the cover we will need next season, with Christian Fuchs set to leave and a possible Ben Chilwell departure too. Benkovic looks as if he might be leaving on loan once another defender is secured. And that would be a good move for the future, with Jonny Evans also the wrong side of 30. We still have a few of Claudio Ranieri's signings that could leave and Islam Slimani could do with being moved out permanently, not just on loan, as he has no future at the club.
It sounds quite dramatic but that is what I have been telling other players since football stopped - to plan for the worst, and to make sure you are going to be OK if you don't get paid for a few months. I'm one of the lucky ones to be offered a contract'Danny Rose, 32, midfielder for Swindon, finished first in League Two The EFL's decision to decide finishing positions by points-per-game means Rose has just won his third League Two title after previous successes with Northampton Town and Portsmouth.
They are another team, like Burnley, who look as if they are in a scrap but they are never down there when it matters. City, meanwhile, have been so up and down, and I don't think Pep Guardiola knows why, which must be annoying for him. I think they need a different sort of striker - like Edin Dzeko in the past - to throw on when teams dig in against them. I wonder if that has been one of the reasons they've fallen short this season.

I thought it was a great initiative, and to be honest, given how popular and how much impact it has had, I'm surprised it's not happened previously. But full credit to Roma, to be the ones to really start something. The Serie A club teamed up with 12 charities and organisations around the globe to show the videos, which were tailored according to which player they signed. Three of the children found were from London with two in Kenya and another from Belgium.
Six teams scrambling to avoid finishing in the bottom three with five games the go - the race to stay in the Premier League is reaching a tense finale. While Norwich look doomed after being cut adrift at the bottom, 15th-placed Brighton - nine points above the relegation zone - appear safe. But with 15 points still to play for - including some key games between teams fighting for survival - Bournemouth, Aston Villa, Watford and West Ham will all believe they can turn their season around.
Rangers have kept two clean sheets in their opening four group games, while Feyenboord have failed to score in two of their four matches and have kept one clean sheet, which is why we are backing a 0-0 draw between the pair on Thursday. Feyenoord have only lost one of their seven domestic home games this season and Rangers are yet to be beaten on the road in Scotland, so we are expecting a very close and competitive ninety minutes between the pair.

Well one bad note for this game is that when Cambuur played away from home at Maastricht earlier this season the game ended in just a nil draw and it really lacked any clear scoring chances or shots on target in that one but I see a different outcome this time as Cambuur meanwhile is 1st in the league this season with 51 points but Volendam is in great form and are just 2 points behind them on 3rd spot I am not counting 2nd placed Jong Ajax because they cannot promote.
Given the fast paced environment and parameters we are currently working within, it is simply not practical to give a running commentary on what may happen.

Then, just 96 seconds later, the Seagulls took the lead when Davy Propper headed in Leandro Trossard's cross. Brighton went close to adding a third when Aaron Mooy swept an effort just wide of the far post, before Jota equalised a minute before half-time. Jonny pounced on a defensive mistake before finding Jota inside the area and the Portuguese forward turned and tucked a shot in at the far post. The second half failed to match the high tempo of the first, with Brighton's Maupay going closest to finding a winner when he fired a fierce shot that was held by Patricio.

Mourinho will have been relieved to see the hosts motor into a two-goal lead inside 15 minutes as his out-of-form team overcame a potential banana skin. There's still a long way to go, but despite being in the last 16 of the Champions League, this competition represents his best chance of securing the silverware he was brought in to deliver.
The table is so tight but you need to put a run together, be tough to beat and keep a clean sheet. I'm really pleased with the clean sheet as we haven't had too many of those this season.

LONDON, Jan 18 (Reuters) - Even when Liverpool are not in action they continue to bolster their seemingly impregnable Premier League lead and it happened again on Saturday as second-placed Manchester City could only draw 2-2 with Crystal Palace at the Etihad Stadium. Fernandinho's 90th-minute own goal robbed them of victory and left Pep Guardiola's side 13 points behind Liverpool who have played two games less and who can stretch their advantage to 16 if they beat Manchester United on Sunday.

The result of this meeting may well disappoint the fans of “Albion”, because “Preston” is the most reliable team in the game on their field. “Invulnerable” fully justify their nickname, because no one has yet managed to win against the owners on their territory.

Gracia took Watford to 11th place in the Premier League and Watford's second FA Cup final last season, a landmark Wembley moment for the club although it ended in a 6-0 thrashing at the hands of Manchester City.
