UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE LAST 16

SEVILLA 0-0 MAN UNITED

DE GEA KEEPS UNITED IN GAME


De Gea the Spain keeper had kept out efforts from Joaquin Correa and Steven N'Zonzi before showing quick reflexes to produce a one-handed save on the stroke of half-time and deny Luis Muriel's header.
United, who were playing their first Champions League knockout game in four years, offered little offensively, with Romelu Lukaku spurning their best chance when he volleyed well over early on before substitute Marcus Rashford dragged a shot wide in the closing stages.

MY OPINION

This result hands the advantage of this match to the Spanish side as United must now win the tie at Old Trafford. If the Spaniards score the United must score 3 and I don’t think that they will have the consistency in their game to do that.
SHAKTAR 2-1 ROMA

FANTASTIC FRED


Argentine striker Facundo Ferreyra, who did not play a minute for Newcastle during a season-long loan in 2014-15, struck to cancel out the opener by Roma's exciting Turkish winger Cengiz Under.
Then Fred, 24, who has been linked with a move to Premier League leaders Manchester City, curled his free-kick over the wall and into the top corner.

MY OPINION


Roma must be angry that they had a lead in this match and then lost it just after half time. This tie is not over yet that I can be sure of but are Roma strong enough defensively not to score a goal in the second leg as I think that they will score.

FA CUP LAST 16 4-3-20

FA CUP LAST 16 PORTSMOUTH O-2 ARSENAL SOKRATES GOT SKILLS Arsenal were fortunate to go into the break a goal up, and it came from an unlikely source as Sokratis controlled a volley into the bottom corner from Reiss Nelson's dangerous cross Nelson created the second shortly after the break, taking on his man on the right before delivering for Nketiah to bundle home from close range https://www.skysports.com/football/portsmth-vs-arsenal/report/423680 MY OPINION Arsenal have not had the best of seasons so far so this might be their only way into Europe. A weakened team can do a go0od job here as for Portsmouth they can now concentrate on whether or not they get promoted    CHELSEA 2-0 LIVERPOOL WILLIAM ADDS TO ANFIELD WOES Mere seconds after making a splendid double-save, one of them from a Willian drive from distance, Adrian has a shocker. Trying to play the ball out from the back, Fabinho loses the ball, gifting Willian a shooting opportunity from about 2...

CONFEDERATIONS CUP GERMANY 4-1 MEXICO GREAT GORETZKA Leon Goretzka scored twice in the opening eight minutes as Germany beat Mexico 4-1 in Sochi to join Chile in the Confederations Cup final. The Schalke midfielder swept home a Benjamin Henrichs pass from 20 yards and then slotted home from Timo Werner's through ball. Werner then tapped home Jonas Hector's pass to increase Germany's lead. Marco Fabian scored a brilliant 35-yard strike for Mexico, before Amin Younes added a fourth for Germany. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40410798 MY OPINION Germany has shown in this competition that they are definitely the team to watch out for in this competition and moving forward. I feel that you cannot call them anything but hot favourites against Chile as they look impressive in world cup qualifying while Chile do not look as impressive . I say Germany 2-0 Chile in final LEDVIA TALIN 0-2 CORK CITY BRILLIANT BUCKLY  Goals from Garr...

ALL IRELAND FINAL REPLAY DUBLIN 1-18 0-15 KERRY MIGHTY MURTUGH An absorbing first half ended with the sides locked at ten points apiece, though in the early exchanges it was all one-way traffic as the blue Dublin wave crashed into the Hill 16 end. After nine minutes they were 0-05 to 0-01 ahead and Paul Mannion dropped one short to keeper Shane Ryan. Such was their dominance at this stage that another point would have put real distance between the sides. Kerry tried route one early on, bombing ball after ball into David Clifford and getting absolutely zero return. Mick Fitzsimons took over the marking duty on Clifford from Jonny Cooper, who played a spare man in defence having been sent off before half-time in the draw. The Kingdom also tried a full-court press on Stephen Cluxton’s early kick-outs early, but the Dubs’ captain, just like the television ad, brings us the wonderful every day and he pinged the ball to his men, drawing appreciative applause from the crowd...
