Arsenal announced Arteta’s positive test a fortnight ago on March 12, which ultimately led to the halt in the season as his side prepared to face Manchester City. The Spaniard believes he contracted the virus after the team's Europa League clash against Greek side Olympiacos in late February. I am feeling completely recovered," he told Arsenal’s website.
Now that aspiration has been realised, the inspiration is the chance to replicate the experience, or at least something like it. That is what Euro 2020 was meant to be, though that will have to wait until next summer. It remains unclear what life will look like in a year; our existential angst is rooted in not knowing if things will ever be the same again. For Wales fans, perhaps there is a feeling deep down that nothing will be quite like 2016 again.
These days he feels the same level of protection with his great friend Suarez, while Antonella and his growing family have given him a confidence and continuity to his life, along with the perspective to realise that as important as football is, and always has been, there is a life apart from the game involving them that is equally important. It is a routine which features training in the morning, then coming home to eat with his wife before picking the children up from school, where he will invariably get involved in matters pertaining to their life and education.
That's something that disturbs me. Mourinho: Football 'going in the wrong direction'Spurs have qualified for the Champions League for the last four seasons and have not finished lower than sixth in 11 years, but Mourinho's side have won just one of their last six Premier League matches. The defeat at Bramall Lane, in which a Harry Kane equaliser was controversially ruled out by VAR because the ball had brushed the tumbling Lucas Moura's hand in the build-up, saw Sheffield United move above Tottenham in the table.
No team in the Bundesliga have earned fewer points than Werder Bremen over the past 10 games. They have earned just seven points in the past 10 games. Werder's extended run of poor form has left them in 16th place in the Bundesliga table.

The Magpies were beaten by Burnley, Manchester United and Everton respectively during their recent dip in form, though it's interesting to note that their 1-2 reverse against the Toffees was their first loss at St. James' Park in nine top-flight games.
But these accusations have been rebuffed by the Saudi government, which claims it wants to get more of its people engaged in sport. Complaints to the Premier LeagueCengiz has also written to the Premier League to say the takeover should be blocked. In a reply to her letter from chief executive Richard Masters, seen by BBC Sport, he says the Premier League is following "due processes required by UK law and by the Premier League's own rules", which "go beyond those required by UK company law" and are "applied with rigour".
CONFIRMED GOAL! Liverpool 0-1 Bournemouth (Wilson). That is how it should be. If the referee didn't rule it a push right in front of him, why change it. Either way it's very soft from Gomez. Wilson tapped in from close range after starting the move by squaring to Billings who set up Josh Fraser with a back heel and his ball across the six yard box was tapped home.

Harrogate and Torquay will face each other in the upcoming match in the UK National League. Harrogate this season have the following results: 10W, 7D and 7L. Meanwhile Torquay have 10W, 4D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
Manchester City aren’t exactly stalwart at the back right now, and the injury to Aymeric Laporte certainly isn’t helping things. Fernandinho has been deputising at centre back, resulting in just two clean sheets from their last six matches.
It wasn't to be and it was on to Liverpool. As the Blackburn team coach approached Anfield, Liverpool fans were clapping us. They didn't want United to win the title. Atkins: "There was myself, Kevin Gallacher, Tony Gale and Jason Wilcox standing in the away dressing room about 90 minutes before kick-off. None of us were playing that day. Kenny came over and said 'it's going to be hell for you if you just stand around, go to the bar'.
Arsenal midfielder Lucas Torreira suffered a fractured ankle during Monday's FA Cup fifth round win against Portsmouth. Torreira, 24, had to be carried off on a stretcher after just 16 minutes following a challenge by Portsmouth defender James Bolton. No timescale has yet been put on his recovery, with Arsenal waiting for "further specialist reviews". Torreira has made 33 appearances for Arsenal this season.
From the Scottish FA's perspective alone, this has already resulted in the postponement of a sell-out match against Israel in the Uefa Nations League Play-Off and the William Hill Scottish Cup semi-finals and final at Hampden Park. As the governing body, we have a responsibility to protect the national game and it is also our duty as a board to safeguard the future of our staff during what medical experts predict will be an enduring period of uncertainty and national lockdown.
However, after suffering his first defeat as Hibs boss on Wednesday away to Ross County, Ross' side have now closed a six-point gap on fifth-placed Kilmarnock to one point.

Midweek saw them have to come from behind to get a point against Napoli in the Champions League. Back in domestic football though, they have some highly impressive statistics to protect. Liverpool are unbeaten in the Premier League this season with only Manchester United taking points off them. They are without defeat in their last 30 league games and the last 46 at home in the Premier League.
It keeps Bournemouth three points from safety, after wins for West Ham and Watford on Saturday, while Leicester remain fourth.

It’s important for everyone to be united and to try and help the people who most need it," he said. I hope the world shows more solidarity. We are realising that we are all equal.

Partizan Beograd meets Crvena Zvezda in Serbian Cup. A significant cup match for both teams and I go for a draw and correct score 1-1. FK Crvena Zvezda being a better team will dominate the match though also they are the defending champion. There has been 5 draws in last 9 direct meetings.
It's our responsibility and we have to do everything we can to achieve that.

Villa soon earned another dangerous set piece and Hourihane again assumed responsibility, firing the ball into the heart of the penalty area where Anwar El Ghazi arrived to knock the ball into the roof of the net from close range in the 36th.

Another very good odds on goals in one match from Germany Bundesliga and another duel, where I will not complicate anything - I will just bet on goals, what is for me very real. So, let's try from the home team and that is team who is not in good form, because they are lost last two matches, 0-2 and 0-4. Of course, they are now under pressure and we will see what will happen. Hoffenheim is better team, who is few days ago lost previous match in Cup against Bayern Munich 4-3 at Allianz Stadium. Over is ok here, really is.
Sanna Khanh will meet with Lam Dong in the friendly game and this two team are coming from Vietnam and this game we have predicted this game to go an under of 4 total goals as this two teams are very good and strong teams and looking at they last past games we can be sure that this game they will go an under of 4 goals as they are very defensive teams and for sure recording an over of 4 goals will be impossible for them

I would be very disappointed, because I saw it at the time," Lennon said. Lessons from the Premiership weekendGap 'psychologically good' for CelticAppeal after bottle thrown at Celtic Park"I think his leg was trapped and he's trying to get up.

That pays 80% of their wages but a club top-up means they will get full pay. Tottenham, Newcastle and Norwich are other top-flight sides who have put non-playing staff on furlough. A Bournemouth statement said: "As the Covid-19 pandemic continues to gather pace, there are far more questions than answers regarding its effects. One thing is for certain however, the wellbeing of our employees, supporters, local communities and everyone around the world is of far greater significance than football matches.
We got a great start but we didn't press the game well enough. City have won the league title for the last two seasons but this term trail runaway leaders Liverpool by 22 points. The Carabao Cup finalists have have lost six league matches, compared to four in the whole of last season, but responded to a 2-0 defeat at Tottenham before the winter break with a 2-0 victory over struggling West Ham on Wednesday evening.
Gilmour was mostly excellent tonight, but a couple of times he was shown up by Adam Lallana of all people, a player who Liverpool have already decided that they will not be offering a contract to and will allow to leave on a free. This is not designed to dig Gilmour out or to try to pick wholes in his performance, far from it in fact.
