But it's important. It felt after the game like a defeat, it felt the next morning like a defeat. But the thing is. We've won a few games and now we've lost it and the difference is massive. Much more than three points. It's really from sunshine to hardest rain and that's how it should be. If you really want to be successful.
Jesus, who last year led Flamengo to the Serie A league title and Copa Libertadores trophy, said he was under the care of the club's medical team. In a statement, Flamengo termed the test result "weak positive or inconclusive" and said it was performing a second test. It suspended all training for the first team and youth team squads for a week.
The SPFL has said nothing in reply. Instead of tackling Thistle's conclusions point by point, they allowed Dundee to resubmit a vote that saw Thistle relegated. From a Partick perspective, anger doesn't even come close to covering it. We're now at the end of phase one in this tortured business. Phase two is the exhumation of the reconstruction debate. We're now led to believe by the SPFL and others that there is a growing appetite for the very thing that many Premiership clubs have been dead against for years, that there is a gathering consensus for a 14-team Premiership next season - maybe for just one season - with three other leagues of 10, or some such model.
That includes their 0-0 draw earlier in the season, but we expect more from Boro here. After all, the hosts have claimed 79% of their points at their own ground this season. They should look to add to that here, especially having kicked off a recent strong run of form.
Of course, a trip to Old Trafford represents a bigger challenge to Spurs than Mourinho’s matches so far. Even in their beleaguered state, Man Utd have a lot more quality than the likes of West Ham, Olympiakos and Bournemouth. Taking all three points could be a stretch for a side that failed to win their last nine league meetings with the traditional Big Six, but Mourinho will feel there’s at least a point up for grabs on Wednesday.

Fulham have a good record over Aston villa and after their loss in the Championship in the last game, they will be hoping this good record plays out here. Fulham have five wins in the last seven meetings with Aston Villa, and they have been doing well at home, which gives them a further boost. Aston Villa have struggled a lot this season, and they have particularly not been good on the road. They head to this clash with just one win in the last seven away matches. They have also been poor in the FA Cup away from home, and we will back Fulham for a win here.
It's just about trying to get that consistency in our play. West Bromwich Albion head coach Slaven Bilic:"It was a good performance from us. This is a difficult league and you have to be strong technically and tactically and you have to manage your way through games. We went behind in an unfortunate way, but we didn't panic and we kept calm and composed and equalised soon after. We never lost belief in our quality.
Speaking of the Emirates, things don’t get any better when Arsenal play there. They have failed to win their last six competitive home games, losing each of their last three and conceding 12 goals in the process.
GOAL! Manchester United 2-0 AZ (Greenwood) THE BOY IS A NATURAL! IT IS RRRIDICULOUS! Garner closes Midtsjo down as he runs across the face of his own box and fouls him, but the ref says nothing, the ball breaks to Greenwood, and he takes a touch then deposits a left-footed scudder into the bottom corner.
There's some chat to be had with Uefa about this. Hence, the stalling by the SPFL. Clubs will want a guarantee from the governing body that the calling of the Premiership will not remove them from European competitions next season. The way it's looking, this season is done. Celtic will be champions, Hearts will be relegated. Promotion and demotion will be settled on the tables as they exist right now.
Despite having a 25-point lead at the top of the table, Liverpool seem strangely vulnerable right now after four of their last six matches ended in defeat. A lowly 12th in the table, Everton, ten points clear of relegation and eight away from a European place, are hardly coming into this in cracking form either.
Uefa is working to plans that would see the Champions League final end the 2019-20 season on 29 August. European football's governing body will meet on 23 April for more discussions about how to complete a campaign which has been disrupted by coronavirus. It is likely one decision will be to agree that leagues could finish early, although only with Uefa's approval. But the idea is still to finish the season as a whole at the end of August, with all outstanding games played.
It will be a very special thing for the island. His manager Danny Whittle, a Stoke expat living on the island, adds: "This is the biggest game in the history of Ibiza. There has never been a team like this play here. Meanwhile, in his pre-match news conference, UD Ibiza manager Pablo Alfaro declared: "This party is a party for the whole island and its people. Obviously Barcelona are favourites, but we will compete with them as we have the means to do so.
isloch are really not good on the road. The team suffered 4 consecutive defeats of which the last 2 defeats have had an exact score 1-0. Minsk are not better with 2 defeats, 2 victories and 1 draw during their last 5 games at home. So it is a very interesting Minsk Derby. Theoretically, Isloch is higher in the standings and has a better record in direct matches, but lately this team is not in shape, the form is poor. FC Minsk The host here and the form of this team seems to be a good in home ground. FC Minsk play much better in their stadium so they should take advantage of this situation and earn at least a point.
We feel that Hoffenheim are likely to take all three points from this game. Fortuna have conceded at least two goals in their last five Bundesliga away games. On top of that, four of Hoffenheim's six Bundesliga wins came by a margin of just one goal. We feel that a 2-1 win for Hoffenheim is a likely result of this game.
Arda will host Ludogorets for this fixture of the league. No doubt, Ludogorets is the best team in this league. Of course, the visitors have the potential to pick up the victory on the opposite stadium. Ludogorets have great attack. Also, they have a solid defense. In any case, I expect, the visitors to dominate from the start match. They tend to score a goal. On the other hand Arda is very average team in this season. Also, the hosts have a poor results in the last matches. I think, the hosts have a very difficult task. My pick - Ludogorets with handicap (-1.5 )
How well do you remember the past 10 years? Well enough to ace our monster quiz?Manchester City won four Premier League titles in the decade, empires rose and fell, Leicester went from the Championship to the Champions League and through it all James Milner kept getting 7/10 every game. This won't be easy but should keep you busy for a while. Add up your scores and let us know how you get on at #bbcfootball There are a mammoth 126 points on offer.
Nonetheless, no other team has really managed to capitalise on their less-than-perfect start to the season and Ernesto Valverde's men sit joint-top of the standings alongside arch rivals Real Madrid heading into Matchday 14, following a 4-1 thumping of Celta Vigo at Camp Nou before the international break. With a trip to Wanda Metropolitano to face Atleti next week and the rescheduled El Clasico at Camp Nou around the corner on December 18, the next month or so is likely to define Barca's domestic campaign; they must ensure they succumb to no more slip-ups against inferior opposition.

The Strongest welcomes Real Potosi in the third round of the Bolivian Apertura although The Strongest has played only one match so far. The Strongest lost away to the new club in the league - Santa Cruz and it was a surprise. It seems that The Strongest underestimated the opponent a bit which was high on the spirit. The Strongest has almost the same squad this year and they will be fighting for the title. The Strongest has huge dominance over Real Potosi and they will relish this match, looking for revenge. Real Potosi already started poorly and they were beaten by poor sides. The home side usually wins this with 5 or more goals to spare.
KEY STATS Liverpool have conceded four first half goals for the first time in any competition since May 2015, against Stoke in the Premier League.

Compared to his success at Real, Ronaldo’s form has dipped significantly at Juventus and he finished third behind Messi and Virgil van Dijk in the latest Ballon d’Or voting. Lionel Messi won his sixth Ballon d'Or award in 2019, moving him one ahead of Cristiano RonaldoGetty Images 13:05 - Unai Emery missed out on three key transfer targets before Arsenal axe Former Arsenal manager Unai Emery failed to sign three key players when he looked to overhaul his Gunners squad during the summer transfer window.
Japanese fans and media are very keen on the Premier League and whenever a Japanese player signs for a Premier League club there is always a surge in interest, as shown by Shinji Kagawa playing for Manchester United a few years ago. Minamino's signing will lead to an increase in merchandise sales and potential new commercial deals in that market. Manchester United historically have had the biggest Asian fan base, but Liverpool and Chelsea are vying for second place.
It not only lifted Atletico, it changed the whole mood of the tie. It was one moment out of a total of 210 minutes in the tie, but the influence it had on the outcome was massive. From thinking 'what do we do now?' when Liverpool led 2-1 on aggregate, Atletico suddenly had a new lease of life. The impetus they gained from it saw them score again soon afterwards, before their late third goal made completely sure of their progress.
MOURINHO: MY PLAYERS ARE EXHAUSTED It is another worry for Mourinho whose Tottenham side are unravelling after an initial revival when the Portuguese replaced Mauricio Pochettino. Their run of defeats includes a 1-0 home loss to RB Leipzig in the Champions League, defeat away to Chelsea and a home loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers at the weekend that left Tottenham in seventh place in the Premier League.
The main issue for the hosts has been their conversion rate. They’ve had plenty of shots, 63 in just three games, but they have only managed 11 on target, a rate of just 17%. And with no goal scored in that time, the strike force really needs to improve in order for the team to turn their fortunes around.
It’s hard to believe these two sides jostled for promotion from League One at the same time. Their second seasons at this level have gone in very different directions. The hosts are up in ninth and in the playoff picture, while Wigan are second-bottom.
Leicester are a very strong side, Rodgers does a fantastic job with his team," the Austrian manager added. They have a clear philosophy and very flexible in their shape. They're tactically well-organised. It's not a coincidence they are so high in the table. To take something against them is not easy and we want to show we can do it better than in the first game.
One more super interesting duel for tonight from Belgium, but this one is from second league in this country. First reason for this bet, is tradition and earlier duels of this teams, who are as a rule, almost always playing very efficient duels. In last official match, OH Leuven and Lokeren are played 2-3 in October this year, but similar was and in few earlier duels, 0-2, 4-0, 3-3, 1-2 and similar. I will in any case take goals here and that is for me really ok option. Over is really great option for this match and I just must try it.
Chelsea's weekend defeat means Arsenal are only seven points behind fourth place. They have still only won four league games this season but only lost three, all away from home. At the Emirates, Arsenal have won three and drawn four but the last three have all ended level. They come into this game though having gone eight league and cup games without a win.
The Swede couldn’t take them, though. He did find the net three times at start of the second half, though, although his first was ruled out for offside following a VAR review. There was no debate over Isak’s second and third, though, as Real Sociedad took a 3-0 lead. Marcelo clawed one back for the hosts, squeezing a strike in at the near post, before Mikel Merino restored La Real’s three-goal lead.
