Vardy is two ahead of his nearest rival - Southampton forward Danny Ings - in the race of the Premier League's Golden Boot. He also recently passed a century of top-flight goals - with 103 scored in 210 appearances. He's a very serious guy," Rodgers said. I think everyone thinks of him as this fun guy, dressed up as Spiderman and everything else. But you don't become a top-level striker by not being super professional.
With extra time looming, Swindon substitute Steve White was brought down by Leicester goalkeeper Kevin Poole and referee David Elleray pointed to the spot. Up stepped Wales full-back Paul Bodin to convert and send the Robins to the Premier League. Hoddle, however, would not be the man to lead them there, as four days after that Wembley victory he was appointed manager at Chelsea and a disastrous campaign followed as the Robins were immediately relegated back to the second tier.

But Norwich hit back when Ryan Sessegnon brought down Max Aarons inside the box and Teemu Pukki fired the spot-kick beyond Hugo Lloris, who made his return after three months out with a dislocated shoulder. Buoyed by that goal, the Canaries took the game to their opponents as they looked to snatch what would have been an unexpected but priceless win in their battle against the drop. Todd Cantwell's cross was cut out with Pukki lurking unmarked inside the box before Cantwell lashed well over from the edge of the box.
The 45-year-old assistant coach of the Peruvian national team was taken to a Lima police station after a neighbour spotted him and complained but he was released shortly after authorities registered the incident, local media said.

We had a couple of bottles of champagne and savoured the win. A big part of being accepted was that game in 1981, because it put you on a major stage. It got you in front of an English audience. I think that allows the Scottish press and fans to accept you a bit better, because you can go and take on the best of England at the time. England's Trevor Francis is shut down by Willie Miller at WembleyAlex McLeish and I have spoken about the commentary and pre-match build-up to that win - I'm sure it was Lawrie McMenemy as a pundit and he hadn't a clue who we were.

Jurgen [Klopp] spent four years building his team and they're doing well now. I've said it so many time, it's not going to be a quick fix. It's not going to be eight or 10 players in, in one transfer window. We've had one proper transfer window in the summer, because the January ones are difficult. But we are trying to do something now.
However, Jordan Pickford soon made an error of his own, failing to keep out a long-range Bruno Fernandes effort that was well within range of his diving arms. United will have been happy with their first half display when they should have scored more with Nemanja Matic striking the post, but Everton had the better chances after the break when they turned the match into a scrappier affair and forced a number of set pieces - including a free kick that Sigurdsson curled against the post.
Cambuur have scored 28 goals at home this season and their home games produce an average of 4.25 total goals, while Feyenoord’s away games produce an average of 3.00 total goals. 88% of the hosts’ home games have produced over 2.5 goals as have 50% of Feeynoord’s away games, which adds further weight to our prediction for Thursday’s clash.
The 23-year-old also scored four goals in the Europa League group stage this season which included a brace against Spanish side Sevilla. We're all happy that we're able to sign Danel, he's a young player full of potential," Norwich boss Daniel Farke said in a staement. He's pretty interesting because he can play more or less all offensive positions.
However, things are now starting to balance out for Brest with them losing their last two matches to PSG and Amiens. Brest will be hoping to showcase their solid home form in this match though as they host les Canaris. The Bretons have picked up 12 of their 17 points at the Stade Francis-Le Blé this season, losing just one of their seven matches at the stadium. They may also be aided by Nantes' poor form going into this match.

Old Trafford legendHe had played for their rivals Manchester City, but after a brief spell in Italy with Torino, Law returned to Manchester in 1962, this time in the red of United. If the Old Trafford faithful needed winning over, Law took just seven minutes to do it, netting in a 2-2 draw with West Bromwich Albion.

Houston Rockets' manager Daryl Morey had tweeted support for pro-democracy protesters in Hong Kong. As a result, Chinese firms suspended sponsorship and telecast deals. AnalysisRobin Brant, BBC China correspondent in BeijingA few weeks ago I asked someone who is an expert on China-UK relations if the Premier League could face an 'NBA moment' if or when a player criticised China in public. English football's top flight is such a global phenomenon, so diverse in its range of players, so vast in its audience spread.

Rangers midfielder Greg Docherty has moved to Easter Road as past of the deal. Docherty, 23, has struggled for game time since returning from a loan spell at Shrewsbury Town last season, making just five appearances. He joined the Ibrox club from Hamilton Academical in January 2018. Earlier on Friday, Rangers manager Steven Gerrard confirmed former England forward Defoe would be out for that period with the calf injury he sustained against Ross County on Wednesday.

This game will be their first match this season. Throughout history, both teams won approximately the same number of games, which tells us enough about the rivalry. Bookmakers put Galatasaray as the slight favorites this time around, which is something that I do not completely agree with. In their H2H meetings, we could see some games, with a large number of goals. The last game was one of those. The game ended in a 2:1 Galatasaray win. An interesting thing is that we saw only one game without both teams scoring in their previous 4 games. Something similar might happen here. If anybody wants to have a better game than that, they will clearly have to start this match strong, trying to score an early goal so they can later, finish the game easily. Currently, Galatasaray is sixth with 19 points from 11 games. On the other side, Basaksehir is 5th at the moment, with 19 points. Galatasaray will have to prove that they are favorites on the field, which I can see happening. Basaksehir is also having a worse goal ratio than Galatasaray, which we will discuss later. Both teams are playing changeable football this season, but from this perspective, Basaksehir could try to steal a point and shock their rivals again.
Chelsea say Hudson-Odoi "displayed symptoms similar to a mild cold on Monday morning" and stayed away from the the training ground. The club added that the player is "doing well and looking forward to returning to the training ground as soon as it is possible". Chelsea's full squad has gone into isolation. The Gunners have closed their training ground and club staff who had recent contact with Arteta will also self-isolate.

Only Everton duo Richarlison and Dominic Calvert-Lewin have been involved in more duels for the ball than Jimenez's 444, with his success rate in those of 41. Still work to be doneWhere Jimenez could improve is his ruthlessness in front of goal. Of all the players to have scored 10 or more times this Premier League season, his conversion rate of 19. Both pale in comparison to the other strikers currently at the top of the league's scoring charts.
The Hammers were very competitive and combative against Liverpool on Monday night, and looked better defensively - apart from Lukasz Fabianski's mistakes. I know David Moyes' side scored twice, so it might sound a bit silly, but I just felt they did not create enough chances considering how well they played. They were at Anfield and playing against the runaway leaders, though, so no-one was expecting them to get anything.
BAD LANGUAGE PART OF FOOTBALL, SAYS SUEDKURVE The Suedkurve (South Stand) fans' group, which was behind the protest, said other figures such as RB Leipzig forward Timo Werner and former Bayern club president Uli Hoeness were routinely the target of similar insults "During a football match, words like that are pretty common," it said, also criticising the response to racist incidents.
Almost more noticeable was the ugly stuff. A hoofed clearance from the edge of United's six-yard box brought chants of 'Bruno, Bruno' from the Stretford End behind him. Then a thunderous challenge on fellow countryman Joao Moutinho eventually brought a cursory check to see if the Wolves midfielder was OK as he lay on the ground receiving treatment. Another free-kick and the routine shot Patricio almost made a mess of were Fernandes' second-half highlights, although he will not be able to raise the whole underperforming team on his own.

All the WSL clubs are now fully professional. However, the Championship is still part-time - and the Women's FA Cup still doesn't have a commercial partner following the end of the agreement with energy providers SSE. Much as authorities might like to concentrate on what's happening on the pitch, the off-field situation is less than rosy in many places.

We’re confident that under 2.5 goals will be produced when these two sides lock horns on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 1-0 in favour of Colchester. The visitors head into the game as the clear form favourites and are unbeaten in their last five league games. Morecambe sit bottom of the table, due to four defeats in their last five matches, and have failed to score in three of their last fiver outings.
He's the only one. Other than that it was dreadful. England put FA Women's Super League leaders Chelsea ahead in the eighth minute after Norway's Maren Mjelde headed the ball back across goal, and the 25-year-old forward continued her recent fine run of form by firing home at the second attempt. Chelsea goalkeeper Ann-Katrin Berger kept her side in it with some superb saves, but she was finally beaten in the 84th minute when Leah Williamson brought Arsenal level with a left-foot shot that flew through a thicket of defenders and into the net.
Cardiff are hoping to turn a corner under Neil Harris, who has picked up four points from his first two games. While that is a solid return, the new Bluebirds boss has yet to be really tested on the road. Last weekend saw them claim a 2-2 draw at Charlton, but the Addicks recent record suggests that most teams could hold them to a point.
Frank Lampard called him incredible. Alan Shearer said he "bossed it" and Jermaine Jenas named him man of the match - safe to say Scottish teenager Billy Gilmour made an impression in Chelsea's FA Cup win over Liverpool. The 18-year-old attracted praise from players, pundits, journalists and fans as he helped Chelsea to a 2-0 win against Liverpool in the FA Cup fifth round. Having played a total of just 281 minutes before Tuesday, has he staked a claim for a regular starting berth and a Scotland call-up? "It was a good match, so it was," Gilmour told BBC Sport.
