Leicester returned to winning ways against West Ham at King Power Stadium but lost the league's top scorer Jamie Vardy to injury in the first half. Harvey Barnes scored the opener, poking in from a yard out, before turning provider for Ricardo Pereira on the stroke of half-time. West Ham captain Mark Noble made it 2-1 from the spot before Leicester's Ayoze Perez did the same.
But the difference between this performance and the one turned in against Real Madrid mid-week was Vidal. The Chilean gives Barca something different from midfield, making late runs to support his attacking teammates. Alaves couldn’t cope with him as he found pockets of space around the edge of the box.
Former England striker Ian Wright also said recently he believes Ings deserves a recall. On BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club, Wright spoke about the forward's resurgence after injury: "After what he has been through, he deserves it. Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti has backed Calvert-Lewin for England, saying: "He has the quality and possibility to be a great striker in England - and for England. And it's not as if Raheem Sterling and Jadon Sancho don't have a goal or two in them.
Kane: One with his right foot and one with his left in the win over Leicester keeps Kane and Spurs on course for a top-six finish. Kane is in great form and it's not just his finishing. His all round game is as good as it has ever been. The ball he produced for Son Heung-min in the second half was outstanding and with a better touch from the South Korean it would have resulted in a goal-scoring opportunity.
Hopefully we will be closer to each other than ever, and ready for the beautiful distraction that football can bring. To play in a European Championship next summer will still be possible for all of our squad and so we shouldn't spend another moment thinking about the postponement of the competition.
On an unsurprisingly bleak Scottish night in May 1976, the Rolling Stones played You Can't Always Get What You Want - a song of optimism and eventual disillusion - to a 3,500 crowd at the now defunct Glasgow Apollo. That same night at the other side of the city, almost 10 times as many St Etienne fans experienced a similar emotional journey as Mick Jagger alluded to. At Hampden, the French outfit came up against a Bayern Munich side in the midst of a golden age of European domination, going for their third consecutive European Cup title.
Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has come under scrutiny again after his errors contributed to his side's FA Cup semi-final defeat by Chelsea. The Spain international, 29, has made several high-profile mistakes in recent seasons, a far cry from when he was considered the best keeper in the Premier League and an ever dependable last line of defence for United. He's unrecognisable from the keeper who won four player of the year awards," said former United defender Phil Neville.

Leicester City crashed to a 4-1 defeat at Bournemouth on Sunday and need to get back into winning ways. With three fixtures remaining, they are down to fifth in the Premier League and host Sheffield United who are seventh. Sunday was a bad day for City and Monday had mixed news for them. The morning saw City win their appeal, meaning Leicester have to finish in the top four if they want Champions League football next season.
City did lose, but the game itself was arguably one of the most exciting since the restart and the tension and then relief at the final whistle perhaps only enhanced the Liverpool celebrations.

I think that this game is decisive in the fight for the championship. Especially for Arminius. The team has a much easier calendar, games will be with middle men and only in the last round will the game with Heidenheim. Hamburg is getting harder, two games in a row with the Top 3 teams. And in the last round, we were sadly lost points in the 94th minute, missed the second goal and a draw. Guests will be satisfied with a draw in this match, because Hamburg and Stuttgart have the next game. It will be hard to ward Heking. Plus, the guests in the defense look good, I think they can restrain the hosts' attack. I believe that the guests will try to give all their strength, at least for 1 point, in order to facilitate the champion's way.

Arsenal's legal team have been in contact with their Manchester City counterparts over Mikel Arteta becoming the next Gunners boss, but there is still no agreement in place. Arteta has said his farewells to City staff, with the expectation being that he will be unveiled on Friday. The Spaniard remains under contract as City are still waiting for Arsenal to offer to pay compensation. Interim boss Freddie Ljungberg had his news conference cancelled on Thursday.
United have refused to say whether they have made an official bid for the player. However, it is known they will try to make signings in January if pre-existing targets become available. Solskjaer feels new additions would be an advantage and any deal for Haaland would help fill the gap left by the £74m sale of Romelu Lukaku to Inter Milan in the summer. United remain in four competitions, including the Carabao Cup, where they entertain League Two Colchester in the quarter-final on Wednesday.
It's a meaningful game for both teams. Espanyol will be relegated if they fail to win, while collecting maximum points is Barcelona's only option as they attempt to to maintain their slim title chances. For Setien, the stakes are even higher. If his team fail to impress in the next two weeks, he probably will not even last to see out the delayed conclusion to this season's Champions League when it resumes in August.
The Premier League met on Monday to discuss "Project Restart" and hopes for a return to action on 12 June, with matches played behind closed doors. We all agreed that we will only go ahead if it is safe to do so and the health and welfare of players, coaches and staff comes first," said Dowden. It is now up to the football authorities to agree and finalise the detail of their plans, and there is combined goodwill to achieve this for their fans, the football community and the nation as a whole.
Harrogate slip to fourth, and Solihull and Woking make the play-off places, either side of Halifax. Notts County, who won nine and lost just two of their 14 games between 21 December and when the league was halted, only just scrape into the top 10 while Dover - 12th when the season was stopped - are eighth. Predicting future results Despite Evatt's claims that Barrow should go up, it could be argued by Harrogate that the title was still in their hands.
Subs: Suarez 6, De Jong 7, Fati 8. Highlights: 11' Great chance for Lukaku, he turned inside Umtiti but Lenglet's despairing challenge spooned the ball away from the target. Good save from Neto on his debut. Umtiti looks well out of his depth, muscled out by Martinez, who moved the ball inside to Lukaku, he fed Biraghi and his fierce strike, albeit at a nice height, was parried away.
Teenager midfielder Oliver Skipp kept the ball ticking in the middle of the park by completing 91% of his 65 passes, while Lo Celso beside him also impressed, highlighting why Spurs paid £27m to sign the Argentine on a permanent deal. With time ticking away, Lo Celso could have won it for Spurs but saw his low drive at the near post kept out by Krul and Fernandes blazed over from a promising position.
Injuries meant Giggs was in and out of the side that season, with Jesper Blomqvist his regular deputy, while the squad was replete with alternate talent in the likes of Phil Neville, Henning Berg, Nicky Butt, Teddy Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Invincibles?The Arsenal side that went a whole season unbeaten in 2003-04 is one of the most iconic of the Premier League era.

A quick glance at the league table shows that Bolton are floundering. They're on just seven points and are 18 points from safety. On this basis, they're a down and outs, no-hopers, a lost cause. However, it's always important to remember that they started the season with a points deduction and had virtually no senior playing staff until the end of September.
A Marquinhos double, Edinson Cavani's 200th PSG goal and a goal by Kylian Mbappe put the capital side on 65 points from 26 games but they lost captain Thiago Silva to a muscle injury and Neymar picked up a straight red card for a late challenge in stoppage time.

I have to disagree with the odds in this one having watched Kaya many times in their own league where Ceres is by far the best club while Kaya lost most of the games played with Ceres home or away league or cup last season, this while I watched them win 2-0 away at Shan Utd and their defense was really not that great to watch but their opponents were too weak to score a goal in that one, and do not get impressed with the fact they won that game as Shan Utd is very weak side.

At the back, Thursday's visitors have most certainly come up short, conceding eight goals and keeping zero clean sheets, but what they have done is avoid getting constantly battered, losing by more than a single goal in just one of their five UEL group games. What they've also done is make a habit of getting the odd goal, scoring in four out of five, notching in both of their travelling games. They'll struggle to get the better of Gent in Belgium, but they can at least make their presence felt.

Gerrard confirms he is close to new Rangers dealAnd it would also provide an immediate boost after the despair of Sunday's League Cup final loss to Celtic.
