So let’s end on the time Hans-Jorg Butt scored a 76th-minute penalty for Bayer Leverkusen against Schalke in a Bundesliga match in April 2004. Unfortunately for him he had not yet returned to his goalline when Mike Hanke lobbed him from the centre circle from kick-off. Luckily Butt’s Leverkusen won 3-2. Remarkably the German scored 36 penalties - including 26 in the Bundesliga in his career. He scored three Champions League goals - all against Juventus - all for different clubs (Hamburg, Leverkusen and Bayern Munich).
Businessman Robert Benwell addressed supporters in December about his plans to "bring football back to Bury", with one of the options being to start the club again if it goes into liquidation, but it is unclear what will happen to the club next and in what form.

Andrea Orlandi, the former Barcelona, Swansea and Brighton midfielder who is now a pundit for La Liga TV, believes the main question facing manager Ernesto Valverde is not where De Jong should fit in, but how to accommodate others around him. There is no doubt he'll start El Clasico. It's Messi and De Jong, plus nine others," Orlandi told BBC Sport. He's done even better than I expected and looks like he was born to play for Barcelona.

It's not easy to pinpoint where Charlton are going wrong. They're not the best defensively, but it's not as if they're visibly too weak to compete at this level, while despite failing to win since October, they never receive a battering. Interestingly, only two of their ten defeats this term have been by more than a single goal.

But camaraderie is important to Ancelotti, who has allowed them nights out, so long as they are ready to work the next day. You can be relaxed around Carlo and talk to him like you would anyone else," said Walcott in the club's programme. We saw the other side of him at West Ham [where Ancelotti delivered a half-time rollocking during the 1-1 draw]. He has that in him - but he is a very calming influence in the dressing room.

Sometimes you think you'd rather come out of there having been battered and lost 3-0 or 4-0 rather than lose the way we did as it was heartbreaking knowing we controlled a whole game of football but did not get the rewards," he said. We can use that pain as motivation, but we also need to use our performance and our levels on the day as a platform. We showed everyone, our fans, ourselves, that the game is not a mismatch and we are just as good as them.

Salzburg received a red card and it was an unexpected result.

Leganes have good chance to make good play here, and to try making surprise, against the Champion and big favorite in the Cup game. Host did change a coach, when fired Valverde, and that made a lot of issues among the players.

This latest collapse might leave them feeling that Aberdeen have conjured some sort of voodoo magic to ensure they will never be defeated at Rugby Park, especially given how emphatically Kilmarnock had rattled their opponents in the opening 25 minutes, and they finished the stronger too.

I'll speak to president Aurelio de Laurentiis tomorrow and we'll make the best decision for Napoli. Manager Carlo Ancelotti was seemingly looking ahead after his side's 4-0 thrashing of Genk took the Serie A club into the last 16 of the Champions League.

Posted at 58' Gonzalo Higuaín (Juventus) wins a free kick in the attacking half. Posted at 58' Foul by Ales Mateju (Brescia). Bayern Munich scored three times in the opening 12 minutes as they blew away Cologne to go back to the top of the Bundesliga. Robert Lewandowski smashed into the roof of the net and Kingsley Coman then slotted home from 12 yards - both from Thomas Muller passes.
Roberto Firmino went close to his first Anfield goal since March with a curling effort just past the post and should have got it later in the second half, but failed to connect with Trent Alexander-Arnold's low cross from point-blank range. In the end, though, two was more than enough to seal another win and move another step closer to their ultimate goal. Having achieved an 'Invincibles' year, Liverpool still have a long way to go to match the 'Invincibles' season achieved by Arsenal in 2003-04.
APOEL got smashed at home in the first leg at home against much stronger Basel side with no less than 3-0 in the end while APOEL really had just one shot on target in that encounter and I really do not understand why odds are so big on the hosts this time to win once more at home because teams from Switzerland, mostly, Basel, have excellent results in the European competitions treating them really seriously just like that first leg shows.

The Premier League club says average annual profit club from player sales over the past five seasons, including 2019-20, is £34m. Playing in the Europa League rather than the Champions League had an "adverse impact".

the home team have been in good form winning their home matches they have even been hard to score against. They have seen only 1 team score here against them in their past 5 home matches, they do not allow many home teams to get many shots on target against them either. It would be all about defending for the home team this is how they like to play and this will be a chance for them to probably go on and win another home match to nil. It is their main focus at home now and they have been working towards it
Manchester United will against Club Brugge in match UEFA Europe League. My prediction this match could be the won for Manchester United with margin score is 2 goals. Manchester United have great result on last 6 match in qualification due to Manchester United have won in 4 match, 1 match is draw and 1 match is lose. Meanwhile, Club Brugge have not good result in qualification Champions League due to Club Brugge only draw in 3 match and 3 match is lose. Therefore, I think that Manchester United can defeat Club Brugge on this match due to Manchester United have great result on last 3 match in qualification. Surely Manchester United have more chance to win on this match.
Valencia did not start this league part well. They had hard schedule, but also some matches where drop their victory in the final part of the game. Team is heading to Eibar, which also is not at the playing from the previous seasons.

Guile and grit from DortmundIt is now two wins from two for Dortmund since German top-flight football returned, with this victory following the impressive one achieved over Schalke last Saturday.

The Dutch darlings reminded everyone of why they should be everyone's second team in last season's edition, reaching the semi-final stage. Now, they will play Europa League football and face a tricky round of 32 first leg tie away to Getafe. The surprise story of the La Liga campaign, Getafe are currently third behind Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Spanish top flight.
Although they would go on to lose the game 2-1, Getafe were revitalised by Angel’s strike and would have pulled off an unlikely comeback were it not for some inspired goalkeeping by Marc Andre ter Stegen in the Barca goal. Nevertheless, the 32-year-old left his mark in the Catalan capital, leading many to call for Barca to make their move and bring him in.
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.
