This is the first chance of his career – hell, anyone’s career – to have a proper rest. Take it, Harry. Season is over (for ninth tier of English football) We promise we’re not scraping the barrel… but we bring news from a level of football that is only a few rungs above a standard the Warm-Up once played (still clinging to that 14th tier dream).
The hosts have failed to score in four of their six home games conceding at a rate of just over two goals per fixture, whilst three of the visitors' five victories this term have been by a two goal margin. Considering the difference between these teams in the league table, we think Getafe should secure a win here by another comfortable margin, so 0-2 is our correct score prediction.
GOAL! Everton 1-1 Crystal Palace (Benteke): BENTEKE HAS SCORED! Thirty-four games without a goal, the Belgian has finally ended the drought! Zaha switches the ball into the feet of the forward and his routine shot squirms underneath Pickford and nestles in the back of the net. Palace hit the post! Another left off for Everton! The corner delivery slips between the legs of Coleman at the near post, hits Benteke, who knew nothing about it, and smacks against the woodwork.
Alli’s career is now in the hands of a manager that could unlock all his thrilling potential. MAN OF THE MATCH Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur). It was close between Alli and Son for man of the match, but for his goal and his superb assist for Moura the South Korean international just about gets the verdict.
Fulham's players, substitutes and coaches celebrated exuberantly, and the goal rather knocked the stuffing out of their opponents. Cardiff could barely lay a glove on Parker's men as they passed the ball around at will, almost toying with the home side as they took a firm grip on the tie. Former Cardiff forward Bobby Decordova-Reid was close to adding to their lead, his fierce half-volley fizzing narrowly over the bar.

We tried to come here to win the game and we did," he told television reporters immediately following their 2-1 victory. This is just the first part. If one team can overcome this situation, it's this club. When we were better, we conceded a goal. When they were better, we scored a goal. That's football.
The technology has led to some frustrating moments for those on the touchline and in the stands as they've celebrated goals, only to see them ruled out after a review. Poor Pep Guardiola has had more than his share of VAR misfortune. It played a significant part in Manchester City's elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Tottenham in April and again went against his side in their crucial Premier League tussle with title rivals Liverpool in November.
Did you know? Marcus Rashford has scored 17 goals in 29 league games this season, as many as he managed in the previous two campaigns combined (68 apps). Kane: The ball from Steven Bergwijn was sensational while the headed goal against Newcastle was routine for Harry Kane. The England captain positioned himself perfectly for his first goal and was courageous for his second. For Kane to reach his 200th league goal is all the more remarkable when you consider he has not won a single trophy in an otherwise glittering career.
These teams last met on the first day of the season with the game finishing 1-1 despite Strasbourg dominating much of the action. However, we don't think les Grenats will be as lucky this time considering both sides' form. Strasbourg have just one clean sheet in their last five league games while Metz have scored in five of their last six matches in Ligue 1 so we're backing both teams to score, a market which has won in the last two clashes of these sides, in five of Metz's last six league games and in three of Strasbourg's last five league matches. However, given les Alsatians form at the tail end of last year, we're backing the visitors to win 2-1.
Paris FC is trying to fight for relegation goals. Currently this team has a 3-match winning streak and that result helps them get rid of the red light group. With 27 points, Paris FC temporarily ranked 17th in the table, 2 points more than the relegation group but played less than 1 match. Therefore, if they win the match late on 27th tonight, they will continue to improve their rankings and more importantly increase the gap with the red light area to 5 points. Lens is currently ranked 4th in the rankings with 47 points, 3 points behind the Top 2 and Lens plays less than 1 match. Therefore, Lens also wants to win all 3 points to climb to the position with a promotion ticket directly to Ligue 1.

Motson and Davies are another reason why those England games are so fondly remembered by millions of people, not just the ones who were lucky enough to be at Wembley to see them. But while their commentaries are part of the memory of that summer for everyone who was watching on TV, they were all new to me. Even the videos we were shown after the matches to go through things did not have a commentary on them so I had never heard them until earlier this year.
They've been learning from me and I've been learning from them. I knew nobody [in the team] so I was the new kid at school. This is one of the best teams in England for sure and hopefully we can be one of the best teams in Europe going forward.

Evertonagainst showed plenty of spirit against Leicester, battling back from two goals down to take the game to penalties, only to be undone by two Kasper Schmeichel saves. They're obviously gutted in there," Ferguson said after the game. There's a lot of tears. I'm gutted for Seamus Coleman, Leighton Baines, guys like that.

Since then, they have earned just two points and conceded at least two goals in all but one of those matches.
Inconsistency continued to blight The Robins on New Year's Day, as they slumped to a 0-4 defeat at home to Brentford. The Bees are a good side, make no mistake about that, but Lee Johnson will have been bitterly disappointed to see his side receive such a beating.

It was not possible given the current coronavirus but they still relished every moment and deservedly so. It was only sad that so many supporters once again chose to ignore the urgings of Liverpool as a club, manager Jurgen Klopp and Dalglish himself, to stay away from the stadium, instead gathering in greater numbers as the game went on, forcing Merseyside Police to put a dispersal zone in place. Inside, Anfield was plunged into darkness before a light show of rock concert proportions flashed around the stadium, Klopp and his staff leading the way before Liverpool's players got their golden moment.

Given the need to rediscover the necessary grit and determination on the pitch and produce an immediate turnaround, the owners and management decided that a change of coach was the best option," it added. Montella, previously in charge for three seasons between 2012 and 2015, returned in April but his team lost five of their first six games under his leadership and only escaped relegation with a 0-0 draw at home to Genoa in their final match of last season.
Just one goal was plundered when Sheffield United turned Arsenal over 1-0 in the reverse league meeting between the pair in October, and with the underlying factors suggesting that Saturday's rematch should be just as tight, we think the under 2.5 total goals market holds value for this weekend's bout.
At home, amateur matches continued and there was a growth in the popularity of the women's game. Abroad, soldiers would often play impromptu games wherever and whenever the opportunity arose. The most famous of these was the legendary match on Christmas Day 1914, which saw some Allied and German troops on the western front lay down their arms and emerge from the trenches to temporarily fraternise and kick a ball around.

An alternative or back-up to Anthony Martial at centre-forward would also be welcome and so would a creative midfield playmaker capable of providing the killer passes that Martial and Marcus Rashford could thrive on.
