Mourinho was holding his first press conference since being appointed Tottenham manager on Thursday, just a day after Mauricio Pochettino was sacked. Video - Jose's quick response when asked about broken Chelsea promise00:16 "I am humble. I am humble enough to try to analyse my career. Not just the last year but the problems and the solutions.
Deulofeu had their best opportunity soon after the interval when he latched on to Troy Deeney's flick-on to drive at the Palace defence, but his low shot went wide. The hosts showed some fight as they poured forward in search of the winner late on, and they were nearly gifted three points when Martin Kelly headed back towards his own goal. There was a scramble for possession which eventually fell for Sarr, but Vicente Guaita was quick off his line to close down the space and claim the ball off the forward's toes.
Much like Burton, Fleetwood are going through a period of defensive insecurity in that they're finding it very tough to keep teams out. They're by no means any easy team to beat, losing none of their last five league matches, though the visitors have kept just one clean sheet during that time, while they've shut their opponents out in just one of their last ten travelling fixtures.
Play-off tactics vital to NI appointment - Craigan We must trust IFA on new boss - McGovernEuro 2020 play-off semi-finals on 8 OctoberMotherwell manager Stephen Robinson was given permission by his club to speak to the IFA, but the club was not contacted on Friday. The Scottish side had agreed a six-figure compensation fee in advance of any talks. It is also understood that elite performance director Jim Magilton, former St Johnstone manager Tommy Wright and Northern Ireland women's manager Kenny Shiels have not received any update from the governing body since their interviews on Wednesday.
They had not beaten Chelsea in any competition since 1988 and were thumped 4-0 by the Blues in the FA Cup in 2018. The Tigers also went into this game on the back of two league defeats - failing to score a goal in either of those games - but nevertheless gave a good account of themselves with a spirited performance. Top scorer Bowen, linked with a move to the top flight this month, was their busiest player in the first half and managed four shots on goal - more than any other player on the pitch although none of them really troubled Willy Caballero in the Chelsea goal.
When Banks was struck down by food poisoning as England prepared to face West Germany in the World Cup quarter-final in Leon, Bonetti was thrust in as a last-minute replacement. England were cruising at 2-0 but then collapsed inexplicably to lose 3-2 and with it their crown as world champions. Bonetti's performance was regarded as a major factor and he was made something of a scapegoat, with the finger of blame pointed at him for West Germany's first two goals from Franz Beckenbauer and Uwe Seeler in particular.
BEER AND FOOD OUTLETS At one of the few matches to take place in London, Dulwich Hamlet took on Hemel Hempstead in the sixth-tier National League South. The only references to the pandemic were the by-now familiar non-handshaking pre-match team greeting and a PA announcement saying there was no guarantee next week’s match at St Albans City would go ahead “in these difficult times” — but that the beer and food outlets would be open all afternoon.
Meanwhile, Birmingham City have lost five of their last six league games (D1), shipping 16 goals in those five defeats (3.2 per game). They’ve shipped nearly 14 shots per game on the road this term, while they’ve failed to keep a clean sheet in 13 straight games. However, they’ve scored twice against Blackburn, Wigan and West Brom in their last six games, while they put four past Leeds in that time as well. That’s seen a total of 27 goals scored in their last six.
Typically excellent on home turf, Jorge Sampaoli's troops can be highly confident in giving the champions a run for their money. Indeed, they've dropped just 2 points from their last 8 home fixtures and having plunged home an average of 2.25 goals a game in the process, they'll certainly give the visitors plenty to think about
In the 'Correct Score' market a 2-2 draw appeals. For all Barnsley look a good bet to notch a few goals, they're not easy to fancy at the other end. The hosts have kept just one clean sheet at home this term and have conceded multiple goals in seven out of eleven, conceding exactly two on four occasions.

Mourinho and PogbaGetty Images The question: What role does Paul Pogba play? If you put everything else about Paul Pogba to one side there is still one great misunderstanding about Pogba and that is, at the age of 27, where he does he play best on the pitch? What is the role of Paul Pogba? So far in his career his positional flexibility has become a paradoxical limit for Pogba.
Everton are still considering their managerial options, with Shanghai's Portuguese coach Vitor Pereira a leading contender and former boss David Moyes still in the mix. The presence of former Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac sitting near the Goodison Park directors' box raised eyebrows, although the Croat insisted he was simply taking in the game before travelling to watch the Manchester derby. I haven't a clue what was happening with him," said Ferguson.
No fair-minded person can take the outcome of this vote seriously. Partick Thistle decide against legal actionWhat next after days of 'division and bitterness'?What's it like celebrating a title in lockdown?The league's plans were passed when Dundee belatedly changed their decisive vote to back an early end to the lower divisions. It means Dundee United, Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers have all been named champions of the Championship, League One and League Two, respectively.
Premier League players to wear 'Black Lives Matter' on shirtsSterling calls for more BAME coachesLivingston's Bartley 'wouldn't be comfortable' in USABarnes, born in Jamaica, starred for Watford, Liverpool and England in the 1980s and '90s. He was appointed head coach at Celtic in 1999, with fellow Liverpool favourite Kenny Dalglish installed at the same time as director of football. However, Barnes' time at the Glasgow club was fraught and he was sacked following the 3-1 Scottish Cup defeat by second-tier Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

He lost the first set of his semi-final then faced three match points in a second set tie-break. He eventually won the game to make it 17 wins out of 17 this year.

In Division 1 in Denmark FC Roskilde hosts FC Amager. The hosts are last and have recorded 5 victories, 1 draw and 14 defeats. However, of the 5 victories, 4 were obtained at home. Fremad is 6th with a record of 7 wins, 7 draws and 7 losses. This match represents one of the last chances of the hosts for the survival. Roskilde sit at the bottom with 8 points behind the safe zone. Therefore, the hosts should be the most motivated team, but this does not mean that guests let go easily. I therefore believe in a high-intensity battle that should mean goals on both ends and a draw
Jahn Regensburg's defeat at Heidenheim was only their first defeat in the 6 games after the restart of the league. At home Jahn Regensburg have been in good form since September last year with only 2 defeats in the last 12 2. Bundesliga matches.
Real Madrid host celta at the Santiago tonight and come into this fixture with an impressive form of 5 out of five wins which places them on the top spot of the log. A win will see them gain a three point advantage on top of the log to second placed Barcelona .celta have been having a disastrous season which sees them in the relegation zone a point above the bottom two. Celta also have another dismal record of conceding as many goals thus there are defensively weak as compared to their rivals today hence I predict a score margin of more than 2 goals
The first fell out of the number of applicants for the European Cup next season, although it is possible temporarily, because the distance is still pretty decent, and there are still enough matches, but I'm not sure that they are very pleased with the coaching staff of Valencia. The hosts need points to continue the fight for the Europa League, while the guests, having secured themselves from relegation, no longer claim to be anything. In the last game against Real Madrid, the “bats” looked very good and the score, in my opinion, was not in the game. In addition, Valencia plays very well against Osasuna in their field - in the last 12 personalities on the Valencia field, guests only once managed to catch a draw.

Piotr Zielinski gave Napoli the lead from close range with Lorenzo Insigne's volley doubling their advantage. Ronaldo scored in injury time for champions Juventus. Sarri was booed by Napoli fans on his first game back at the club he left in 2018. He spent one season with Chelsea before moving to Juventus last summer. He left the club on a high - leading them to a club record points tally in 2017-18 - but returned to take on a side who were 13th in Serie A after a run of one win in 12 league games.
Farense will host Feirense for this fixture of the league. No doubt, the hosts have better team than their opponent. Farense is the best teams in this campaign. They are currently on the 2nd place with 30 points. Of course, the hosts will try to make a positive result. Hosts will go in this game to victory. However, I think, this will not be an easy task. I expect, the visitors will try to provide a strong resistance. Also, we have Feirense who's is very average team in this league. However, Feirense have better results in the last mutual matches. My pick - Feirense to win.

Every person on this planet will be affected and in my lifetime I cannot think of something so impactful. With over 786,000 infected, nearly 38,000 deaths and large segments of the world in lockdown we need to realise that football cannot operate in a bubble. We may be the eighth largest club in the world by revenue, according to the Deloitte survey, but all that historical data is totally irrelevant as this virus has no boundaries.

Sadly for two fallen giants, neither look likely to qualify for the Champions League. It is important though that they qualify for the Europa League, especially in the current financial climate. Oh and both sets of fans will want to see their team finish above their bitter rivals. We expect a reasonably competitive clash that will end honours even as has happened in both of their last two meetings.
Freiburg did good job in Leipzig, with the draw and one point, but they drop against low table Bremen at their ground, and lost 1:0. They are going to Frankfurt, in order to use weak moment of the host, and try to get first three points in this part of the competition.
Celades' side remain 8th in the table but are now just one point behind the top four, so it's vital for them to get something from this fixture to stay firmly in the hunt. The hosts will be mightily confident about doing just that though despite the high standard of opposition, based on their recent form and the fact they are unbeaten in eight league games at Mestalla this season (W4, D4).

Bayern, who had kept United at arm’s length with almost disdainful ease for most of the game, suddenly fell off a cliff. United created four opportunities in barely 90 seconds. Sheringham’s shot was saved by Kahn after a backheel from Solskjaer; Yorke headed Beckham’s cross too far in front of Sheringham and then missed an excellent chance, miskicking desperately after a low cross from Gary Neville.

As Jude moved into the under-12 group, it was becoming more and more noticeable how his learning was accelerating, how he was picking things up very quickly and how he was impacting training sessions and games," Speakman added.
