It would mean the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final being played in one location as a mini-tournament behind closed doors. The Champions League final would be played on 23 August, with the Europa League final taking place on 21 August. Spain, Germany and Russia have been mentioned as potential hosts for the Champions League but given its location and the fact it has no teams left in this season's tournament, Portugal is viewed as the most likely option.
There is ongoing active engagement about the topic of salary deductions during the period matches are not being played to schedule. These discussions are complex and as a result the process is ongoing. WHAT ARE THE MAIN TAKEAWAYS? Liverpool's matchday and non-matchday staff will be paid while the Premier League is suspended Liverpool are using a government scheme and funds to pay up to 80% of the wages of some of their staff, with the club making up the rest Liverpool have made a collective commitment at senior levels of the club to secure jobs for employees of the club during this unprecedented crisis Basically, Liverpool state that they have utilised the furlough scheme to protect the jobs of its employees.
On TV it appears to go straight in but from the moment I connected with it, it looked to me like it was going to go wide. Then it shifted to the left a bit and I was thinking it was going to hit the post - then it came inside a bit more and suddenly I was thinking 'it's going in… it's going in!'It took a while to actually cross the line and creep into the corner but in the end it was perfect, just perfect.
Cardiff are looking a little different now, with their recent games limited on goals. Three of their last four have seen a single goal scored, while they come into this clash with back-to-back 1-0 wins behind them. Meanwhile, 56% of Barnsley’s trips have seen them lose by a single goal, while they have failed to score in the same number on their travels. The Tykes are looking a little better in defence after conceding just once in their last two, so a 1-0 home win is our correct score selection.
Irish Transport Minister Shane Ross will not publish nor comment on the findings of the report, his department said in a statement after it referred the audit to police. Delaney, who had led the association since 2005 and remains a member of the executive committee of European soccer's ruling body UEFA, left the FAI completely in September after being on gardening leave for months.

Ancelotti's predecessors Ronald Koeman, Sam Allardyce and Silva will all go down in the history books as managers who tried but failed to bring back the glory years. What makes it worse for Toffees fans is the continued success of the red half of the city, with Liverpool the European and world champions and, barring a huge collapse, the next Premier League winners too. But this time, it might just be different at Goodison Park.
Werder Bremen said their match had been postponed on the orders of the city government. It quoted Bremen's mayor Andreas Bovenschulte as saying that "around 2,000 to 3,000 fans are expected to attend the match in front of the stadium" which would break a ban on gatherings of over 1,000 people. The DFL appealed to fans not to gather outside stadiums at the other matches.
This is known as being ‘on furlough’. Video - Tottenham’s decision to cut staff pay ‘completely unacceptable’02:09 THAT SOUNDS GOOD! It is good, because it means that a lot of people won’t lose their jobs during this crisis; of course, more can be done but that is a discussion for another day. HOW DOES IT THIS RELATE TO FOOTBALL THEN? Well, as we mentioned earlier, three Premier League clubs have told their non-playing staff to apply for the scheme.
Chloe Morgan joined Crystal Palace from Tottenham earlier this monthThat is something Luke Tuffs, who manages Isthmian League side Ashford Town, recognises. I've been nothing but looked after," he says. I came out to my old first team when I was 16. I looked about 12, so I was a baby to them, and they looked after me. I think one person said something, and the boys went at them. They protected me and from there, everyone in football knew I was gay so I've never had a problem.
Neymar scored twice as Ligue 1 leaders Paris St-Germain were made to settle for a point in a six-goal thriller against Monaco at the Parc des Princes. The Brazilian struck a third-minute opener before goals from Gelson Martins and Wissam Ben Yedder completed a quick six-minute turnaround for the visitors. Fode Ballo-Toure's own-goal and Neymar's second from the penalty spot then handed PSG a half-time lead.
Southampton's equaliser in their win over Watford on Saturday should not have stood, but the important thing for them is that they came back because it shows they still have belief. Both teams will want to build on their recent form, but I think they might have to settle for remaining unbeaten for a little bit longer. Lawro's prediction: 1-1Bobby's prediction: 1-1 Wolves v West HamAs good as West Ham were in Saturday's win over Chelsea, I really have no idea what they are going to do next and whether they are going to play very well, or very badly.
Privately, all parties admit that resuming matches in early April - when the initial suspension will be reviewed - will be almost impossible. But the hope is that next week a decision is taken to postpone Euro 2020 for a year, thereby freeing up space in the calendar to reschedule outstanding matches and complete domestic league seasons across the continent at some stage. This action goes against the government's highly controversial advice to continue staging sports events despite mass gatherings being closed or cancelled across the world.

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.

LONDON, Dec 22 (Reuters) - When the final whistle blew on Sunday, jubilant Chelsea coach Frank Lampard ran to the visiting fans to throw his coat into the crowd in celebration, as if their 2-0 Premier League win over Tottenham Hotspur had been a cup final victory. For Lampard, it was not only his most significant league win in charge of Chelsea, against one of their biggest rivals, after a run of four defeats in five games.

The list of defunct soccer clubs in Florida numbers in the 30s and includes a handful of sides from the city of Miami as well as iconic former North American Soccer League team Fort Lauderdale Strikers, who once included George Best and Gordon Banks in their line-up. Inter Miami will begin life in Fort Lauderdale at Lockhart Stadium, which has been redeveloped and renamed Inter Miami CF Stadium. It was once home to three different incarnations of the Strikers as well as numerous other teams from the area, including former MLS franchise Miami Fusion.
A disciple of Johan Cruyff's possession-based style of play, the Barca coach is an ideological opposite to Bordalas, who has developed a reputation of building hard-nosed teams who are unafraid to dabble in the dark arts. While in charge of second division Lugo, Setien accused Bordalas' Alcorcon of time wasting.
The Norwegian has brought in or promoted twelve staff to roles in coaching, sports science, strength and conditioning, recruitment, youth and data and analysis departments, as he bids to get the club back in shape to challenge Liverpool and Manchester City at the top of the league. Martyn Pert, a coach who also has a Masters in Sports Science, joined the coaching staff in September, where he has teamed-up with another Solskjaer appointment, Mark Dempsey, who had worked with the manager at Molde in Norway, having also managed in Sweden.
We are studying the situation. He added: "It's also true that there has been an approach from Atletico Madrid. Cavani joined PSG in 2013 and is the club's record scorer with 198 goals. He was not in the squad that beat Lorient and Leonardo added: "We have to listen to him because we have a lot of respect for the player. PSG coach Thomas Tuchel appears keen to keep Cavani to help his side's push for silverware.
Home side should be favorites at this time, since they are fighting relegation's and are coming after recent away victory in the season. They are in much better form, participating to Arsenal, which made to hard defeats, from Manchester City and Brighton.
West Ham go to this game on a really poor form, having won just one of their last 10 matches across all competitions. At the time the league was interrupted, they had lost to Arsenal right after beating Southampton 3-1. West Ham have three wins in the last 15 league matches, and have lost 10 of those.
SAVE! Willian carries the ball into the box, cuts onto his right foot, drills for goal, but Leno beats the ball away. GOOOOOOAAAALLLLL!!!! Chelsea 2-1 Arsenal. Captain's goal from Azpilicueta as he guides home what is surely the winning goal. Short corner from Chelsea comes in, Abraham is in an offside position, but the ball flies past him, Azpilicueta is there, and side-foots his second of the season to send the Matthew Harding Stand into raptures.
Figueiredo's was the second unfortunate own goal of the game, Kyle Bartley having also put through his own net from Sammy Ameobi's cross to make it 1-1 at the break following Callum Robinson's stylish, curled opener. Forest were convinced Ameobi had been fouled in the build-up to Figueiredo's goal, but referee Keith Stroud allowed play to continue and, after the Baggies broke upfield, the Portuguese defender could only divert Jake Livermore's drilled cross past keeper Brice Samba.
in my opinion this is going to be very interesting game and I Expect from both teams to attack for the win because on one side Anyang started with two defeats and on the other gyeongnam started with two draws so that offense from both sides should give to us very fun game to watch and I think most probably both teams will score at least a goal and I do not expect 1-1 to be correct score at the end so I think over 2.5 is very realistic and in head to head matches there is a lot of goals usually

He said winding-up petitions were so HMRC could pursue clubs normally for unpaid NICs. It's not uncommon to do that in a small trader business because you tend to pay NICs at the end of the year," Dr Wilson said. Because HMRC are down the list of football creditors [if a club were to go into administration] they tend to pursue winding-up petitions to make sure HMRC is paid. They are also making a statement to football clubs and the industry to have a deterrent effect.
National soccer federation chief Luis Rubiales led a revamp of the Super Cup by expanding the contest between the league champions and Copa del Rey winners to a four-team format, and shifting the event from August to January and pledging to take it outside Spain. The move to Saudi Arabia has nevertheless led to criticism from human rights groups as well as traditionalist fans of the competition in Spain.
Five of Madrid's last seven games in all competitions have produced fewer than 2.5 goals, a feature which has been synonymous with Sevilla's fixtures this term. A much more organised and balanced side than in the past, Los Palanganas have taken an extremely measured approach to most of their La Liga matches this season, which has led to 14 of 19 producing fewer than 2.5 goals.
