Their fans have accused them of lacking stomach for the fight for much of the season but they couldn't level that charge at them here. They were undone by a much better team, but they battled. The rising confidence in their ranks creaked when Celtic scored against the run of play. The visitors had done nothing in the game to that point, but the first chance they created, they converted. It was clever and clinical.
The Belgian, who now has 14 league goals this term, intercepted a pass just inside his own half, charged forward and scored with a shot which went in off the post. His second in the 33rd minute came with a helping hand from Napoli goalkeeper Alex Meret, who seemed to have Lukaku's shot covered but allowed it to slip through his legs into the goal.

Van Basten would bump me into traffic'The Rangers manager would still be involved in Dick's next move, though. Shortly after the Ibrox deal faltered, Souness was contacted by Cruyff with a view to signing Davie Cooper. The Ajax icon was rebuffed but was sent away with a recommendation that he take another Scottish winger. That's why I got a very strange call out the blue from Ajax," Dick says. The Ajax squad of that 1985-86 season reads like a who's who of Dutch footballing royalty - Ronald Koeman, Frank Rijkaard, Dennis Bergkamp.

I am surprised that, so far, no-one else has tried to replicate what Manchester United did when they held Liverpool at Old Trafford in October. It is something Leicester are capable of with the players they have. Manchester United drew 1-1 with Liverpool on 20 OctoberUnited went with three centre-backs that day, to go man-for-man with the three Liverpool forwards. They also sent their wing-backs forward to push back Liverpool's full-backs, and used a pair of fast split strikers who played high and wide.

Brisbane Roar have now gone three games without a loss, a run of results that has seen them climb four points clear of bottom club, Newcastle Jets.

I have never heard a word from Abramovich: 'Let's get this ready for a sale,' or something," Buck told The Guardian "Because of the political situation, there are people who think they might want to buy Chelsea at a bargain.

PSG kept up their dominant form on Wednesday as they stormed to a 5-0 victory over Galatasaray. Mbappé, Neymar, Sarabia and Cavani were all on the scoresheet as they strolled to the win and they'll be hoping to recreate that type of performance here.

The Parisians have won six of their last seven games in all competitions and comfortably go into gameweek 18 with a five point gap over Marseille and a game in hand.
Juventus Managua U20 will against Real Madriz U20 in match Nicaragua Youth. My prediction this match could be the end score is over 2.5 goals due to Juventus Managua U20 on last 3 match can make total score is 5 goals. Meanwhile, Real Madriz U20 on last 3 match can make total score is 6 goals. Therefore, I think this match can be the end score is more than 2 goals. Moreover Real Madriz U20 always can make score on last 3 match. Likewise Juventus Managua U20 on last 3 match always can make score. Surely both team will make score on this match with final score more than 2 goals.

This is very important match for Kayserispor and I believe that this team will win this duel. They just need three points in this round, and this can be one of the last chances to stay in battle for survival in Super league. So, Kayserispor is not lost in last five matches at home, and in last match at home, they are beat Goztepe 1-0. Even against much stronger Fenerbahce, few rounds ago, they are not lost at home (0-0). Yeni Malatyaspor is in very bad shape and they are lost eight of last ten matches in league. They will lose and this one.
