Tactical fouls ruin the game. A swift counter-attack can be halted deliberately by a player without any interest in winning the ball. A yellow card is brandished, a free-kick from 35 yards is usually wasted and it remains 11 v 11. Some will argue that it’s part of the game, that players effectively have two lives each time they step onto the pitch and are therefore entitled to scissor someone down.
The Dutch side's fans were found guilty of causing damage and throwing projectiles and the club have been fined €5,000. Flick not intimidated by Red Star fans Bayern Munich boss Hansi Flick has insisted that his side are not going to be intimidated by Red Star Belgrade's passionate fans.

Germany 3 liga and match between Victoria Koln and Zwickau. Last match between Braunschweig and Victoria Koln, where Braunschweig won 4:2, was a great and open match on both sides, and I expect something like that even today since Zwickau plays similar football. Zwickau played 2:2 with Hansa in the last round and before that lost Uerdingen with 4:2. In the first part of the season, Zwickau celebrated at home 4:0, so here Victoria Koln will ask for revenge. Victoria Koln has a goal difference of 48:57 which is an average of 3.8 goals per match while Zwickau has a goal difference of 42:43 which is an average of 3 goals per match. My opinion for this match is over 2.5 goals.
The 22-year-old English striker has been linked with Manchester United this season, but his new five-year contract puts paid to any possible move this summer. The Mirror reports that he has doubled his salary to stay. Paper Round’s view: Calvert-Lewin has the chance to learn from Carlo Ancelotti while he stays at Goodison Park, and may be able to move to a new ground with the side in the next few seasons.
Wijnaldum, who protested against racism by pointing at compatriot Frenkie de Jong's skin during a Euro 2020 qualifier last week, said he did not like to see team mates preventing racially abused players from leaving the pitch. It frustrates me a lot to see that because you don't know what he's feeling," the Dutch midfielder added.
The two sides go to the game separated by 22 points; Real on 31 points and Espanyol having managed nine points so far. Real Madrid started the season rather slowly, but have managed to get their grip and are currently tied on points with leaders Barcelona. Real Madrid are unbeaten in their last eight matches and have six wins therein.
The reluctant managerA captain at every club he played for, it was somewhat inevitable Smith's leadership skills would eventually see him move into coaching. He's very intelligent. If he hadn't gone into football he would have been a high-flier in whatever he did," added Heard. Smith's coaching career began at Orient in 2005, first with the youth team then as assistant to Martin Ling. He was appointed Walsall's head of youth soon after being sacked by Orient in 2009.
Match in the Czech Republic between 5th, Slovan Liberec and 6th Ostrava. Both teams still hope to get into 3rd place. So, basically this is a game between two teams fighting for a place in the playoffs and they are currently in this area, so I think a draw in this game would work for both teams. Anyway, I think the guests here are underrated and that's why I'm going to try draw in this game. after the break the locals seem to be in better shape with 3 wins in 6 games. Meanwhile Ostrava won 1 in 5 games but with a more favorable fixtures. Visitors can snatch a point.
When he was about 10 or 11, he turned to me and said: 'Why doesn't anyone pass the ball?' I laughed and said: 'Welcome to real football. Look at the tackling - tremendous. Although he now stands an athletic 5ft 10in, Mount was undersized for his age until a belated growth spurt at 15. But he was never perturbed by competing against bigger boys. He was just five years old when his dad first took him along to a training session for children aged six and above at Soccer City in Fareham.
Legia Warszawa will against Jagiellonia Bialystok in match Poland Ekstraklasa. Legia Warszawa have great result on last 2 match in league due to Legia Warszawa have won in 1 match and 1 match is draw. Meanwhile, Jagiellonia Bialystok have not good result on last 2 match in league due to Jagiellonia Bialystok only have draw in 1 match and 1 match is lose. Therefore, my prediction this match could be won for Legia Warszawa due to Legia Warszawa always won on last 5 match in the home and also won with margin 2 goals or more. Surely Legia Warszawa have more chance to defeat Jagiellonia Bialystok.
Guests are 2nd in the league with a record of 6-1-1 so far in the league but just reached the final of the King Cup competition and have no less than 8 wins in a row in all competitions at this moment and keep on winning games and scoring goals both in home games and also in away games as their aim this season is to win both the cup competition but also the league where they are 3 points behind the league leaders from Al-Hidd but also a game less played than their rivals for the title, but really incredible form for them.

MONDAY’S BIG HEADLINES Pochettino will be back and soon Can Mauricio Pochettino deem himself hard done by after the events of the last week? Well, perhaps. Did he deserve to be sacked? Probably not. Is he sacked? Absolutely definitely. But does his sacking offer up an opportunity? Absolutely. The managerial merry-go-round is all about supply and demand.
Teenager Jude Bellingham has been the target of racist abuse on social media after an emotional final game for Birmingham City. The 17-year-old is moving to German giants Borussia Dortmund, in a deal which could eventually be worth more than £30m to the Championship club. Police are investigating a Twitter post, which Bellingham described as "disgusting". Times have to change. More has to be done," he added.
Now Madrid have to focus on the first leg of this last sixteen tie. They didn't have the easiest of qualifying groups and finished second behind PSG. Only one of their three home games were won, a 6-0 hammering of Galatasaray. The other two ended in score draws against Club Brugge (after trailing 2-0) and group winners PSG.
Would have liked to take the over 3.5 goals bet in this one as Colchester U23 played 3 times here at Coventry U23 and scored every time drawing their first game played here with 2-2 but losing the next two games played by them here once with 3-1 and last time even with 4-1 and the guests are big underdogs here once more but they should score and there really should be few problems for the over 2.5 goals bet to be a winning one and I even think of taking the over 3.5 goals bet here at better odds to be taken.
Meanwhile, Fluminense didn't come into the campaign expecting to struggle anywhere near like CSA but they've hardly fared much better over the course of the year. Indeed, with 5 matches left to run, Flu find themselves occupying the last of the relegation spots and desperately need some results to avoid what would be an embarrassing drop into the second tier.
Heerenveen have only failed to score in 14% of their home games this season and Vitesse have only failed to score in 29% of their away games this season, so we’re not expecting a goalless draw between the pair and doubt either side will fail to hit the target at least once on Friday night.
Pep Guardiola admitted after his Man City side's 3-0 win over Arsenal on Sunday that his assistant could leave for his former club. If it happens, it will happen. When he wants to talk we are open to talk but it's private, I don't want to make things uncomfortable. Allardyce angling for Arsenal job Carlo Ancelotti? Mikel Arteta? Massimiliano Allegri? None of the above would sort out Arsenal's defence as well as Sam Allardyce, according to the man himself.
