Sekhukhune United Vs Orlando Pirates, 05 February 2025 Digne was due to be available for the club’s match with Chelsea on Thursday night, but will not be selected after telling the Spaniard he is unwell. Arsenal were not planning on dipping into the January market to bring in another forward. The plan was to wait until the summer before looking to bolster their attacking options. Whether that plan now will now have to be brought forward remains to be seen. There's a north London derby on Sunday. A few weeks ago, we'd have been looking forward to this game as a real test of two rapidly improving teams. Now Tottenham are scrabbling around for form and fitness, while Arsenal, still reeling from their loss against Nottingham Forest, play Liverpool tonight. We've got something much more exciting. A crisis-off. Winner gets bragging rights; loser gets weeks and weeks of existential agony and maybe some panic buying. That's what the north London derby is for. It was an appointment that would change the face of Arsenal forever. When Arsene Wenger arrived in 1996, the Gunners were a club in the state of flux. Atletico fought their way back into the game, helped as Joao Felix and Koke came on. And within moments Geoffrey Kondogbia saw his drive from the edge of the box level things. Atletico Madrid suffered a 2-1 loss at home to Mallorca at the weekend, with two late goals handing them their second league defeat of the season. St. Mirren's Eamonn Brophy has scored more Scottish Premiership goals against Ross County than he has versus any other opponent (six), including netting in each of his last three league appearances against the Staggies (four goals). Lacazette is, however, running his current contract down towards free agency and is not guaranteed a regular starting berth under Arteta. Stanway drove onto it and despite defenders closing in, she struck and fired into the back of the net. Wrapping up the Tottenham transfer news, rumours and gossip in the 2022 summer window. Manchester United, Arsenal and Newcastle have all made enquiries about Paulo Dybala. Inzaghi made a double switch at the break, introducing Denzil Dumfries and Eden Dzeko, and the latter twice went close to halving the deficit but was denied on both occasions by the inspired Andrea Consigli. Bielsa sought several solutions in the second period to swing the tide back in his favour, but Spurs' comeback was as much about the improved fitness Conte is installing as it was about Leeds' need for resources in the January window. I have played Liverpool, managed against Liverpool a few times, and it is always daunting in terms of you respect the level of player and manager they have. But this team is a lot more than Davies, as they continue to prove. This is a team that features a goalscorer in Larin, an up-and-coming star in Jonathan David, and a talented attacker in Tajon Buchanan. This is a team with heart, fight, passion and, most importantly, talent. It is pretty unlikely that once you have it, that it stays with three players - maybe [it spreads to] another three or four, then you have 13 players available to play on the 26th and 28th and that is impossible, he told BBC Match of the Day. A player with that type of expected goals metrics really should not be 14/1 to open the scoring at home to the league's bottom team. They focus not only on the player but the person. It was this thinking that inspired Pedersen to launch his clothing plan. A brace from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia earned Georgia a shock win and put Sweden's qualification hopes on ice. They had hoped to qualify tonight and still lead Group B by two points, but second-placed Spain visit Greece later, and if they win, Sweden will need to beat them in Seville to qualify automatically. My kids badgered me into doing the Masked Singer but I have to say it was a great experience and a whole lot of fun. One of Rodgers’ biggest flaws as a coach is his inability, or unwillingness, to recognise when circumstances are against his team. This was something Celtic fans experienced when the Scottish giants were repeatedly punished in European competition for Rodgers’ stubbornness. No matter the opponent, Celtic under Rodgers played the same way. This led to a number of heavy defeats. A more pragmatic manager would have stood a better chance. Then they are going to come back and play seven minutes which was four minutes left plus three minutes of added time. Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool are having really good conversations with Mohamed Salah over extending his contract. Before confirmation of the changes came from Rutte there had already been a strong statement from the Eredivisie, whose clubs will again have to play without supporters in the stands when matches resume after the international break. Chelsea also won the club of the year award for having most players nominated across all of the categories. The Hammers were dumped out of the competition with a 3-1 aggregate defeat and had Aaron Cresswell sent off for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity when he brought down Jens Petter Hauge. The Germans then scored the only goal of the game, courtesy of Rafael Borré. In fact, their 10 wins from 22 games played represents their most wins at this stage of a top-division season for 51 years - since recording 10 wins in 1970/71 under Bill McGarry - and that Wolves side went on to finish fourth. We are in this spiral of drama that is not positive for us, Santos said. We lost one game in the last seven games. Julian Alvarez won the Argentine title in November with River Plate Manchester City have signed Argentina forward Julian Alvarez from River Plate. Liverpool fans loved it, of course. “Rafa’s at the wheel,” they sang, echoing their taunting of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at Old Trafford last month.  Sekhukhune United - Orlando Pirates Live Follow the Betway Premiership 2024-2025 live Football match between Sekhukhune United and Orlando Pirates with Eurosport.
