A non-league cup match has equalled the record for the longest penalty shootout in English football. Taunton Town and Truro City needed 34 spot-kicks to separate them after drawing 2-2 in the Southern League Challenge Cup second round. They equalled the record set in an EFL Trophy match between Chelsea's under-23 side and Oxford United in 2016. Taunton finally won the shootout 12-11 when Jack Rice netted their 17th penalty to send his side through.
It has been different since the re-start as they have struggled to draws at Watford and at home to Brighton before this disappointing FA Cup defeat. Manager Brendan Rodgers will have held high hopes of cup success after falling to Villa at the semi-final stage in the Carabao Cup - and this result and performance will have increased a few anxieties around the club. Leicester have had a superb season in the Premier League but they will be looking over their shoulders at Chelsea, who are a point behind them in fourth, as well as Wolves, who are only three points adrift - although they have played a game more.
I think Mesut Ozil will stay at Arsenal longer than Unai Emery. Both of their contracts end next summer but it is the manager who is struggling most. And why Ozil hasn't been playing against teams who play a low block (sit deep) is baffling, especially with the money he is on - he's the highest-paid player in the club's history on about £350,000 a week and has made just three Premier League starts this season.
Substitute Bafetimbi Gomis responded for Al Hilal, before going agonisingly close to heading an injury-time winner. The match went straight to penalties, where Monterrey prevailed after goalkeeper Luis Cardenas denied Eduardo and Mohamed Kanno before converting the winning penalty himself. Monterrey, denied a place in the final by Premier League leaders Liverpool, had goalkeeper Cardenas to thank as he prevented Omar Khribin extending Al Hilal's advantage at the end of a tight first half.
Brisbane have won just twice this season, once over Central Coast with the other coming in a surprise 4-3 win over Melbourne City. They’ve put in disappointing results against Newcastle Jets and Wellington Phoenix recently, both team they’d be hoping to take a result from, and another negative result here could see them start 2020 nine points off the playoff places without much optimism of reaching the top six in time to play finals series football once again.
Lincoln slumped to defeat for the second time in quick succession on Boxing Day, as they lost by a goal to nil away at Oxford. As is becoming commonplace, The Imps kept themselves in the game, but they failed to deliver the goods going forward, which inevitably meant that they faltered.

I can understand it, but with the possible handball, I don't understand it. It would have gone quicker (by going to the screen), but that's how we do it in England and we cannot change that. Wolves were then denied an equaliser by VAR, another decision that came after a long delay. Video - Nuno fumes at VAR: 'The referee is miles away, he doesn't feel the game'00:54 Wolves coach Nuno Espirito Santo, who was booked for protesting the disallowed goal, said he was not a fan of VAR decisions being taken miles away from where matches are being played.
I remember when I was at Barcelona with Mr (Bobby) Robson and Ronaldo scored a goal that is similar to Son's," he said. And this was an amazing goal. I know that he is going to reach the face of the keeper and the control he is unstoppable. The keeper is good, though, but he managed to put it in. Tottenham and England striker Gary Lineker said on Twitter: "Wow.

When my family is happy, I'm happy. Norwich boss Daniel Farke added: "We're totally delighted and happy that Alex has committed himself to be a part of our group. It's a great decision for both parties. Alex is a fully accepted leader in our group and a role model for our younger players, and the quality of his performances have been really important. Tettey has made 224 appearances for Norwich, scoring eight goals.
Wycombe is in terrible shape, a lot of Defeats recently from which last one was versus the Sunderland on the road where they listed with 4 0 and it is not a surprise they fled from the first place on the table but still I believe it is time for them to win today because Rochdale is really not good team,Rochdale is Just 5 points away from the relegation zone and I don't think they could avoid defeat versus one of the top promoter contenders this season and this Odd is good enough so I don't have to risk with some handicap
A large win for Sydney seems the most likely outcome between these two sides and we’re anticipating that the hosts will be 4-0 winners this weekend. They look far too strong for their opponents and anything other than a Sydney win would be a big shock.

Atalanta on the verge of maiden Champions League quarter final after convincing win over Valencia. It was heaven for Atalanta as their Champions League knockout debut got off to a flyer, as they brushed a terrible Valencia aside 4-1 at the San Siro. Starting out at a frightening pace, the Spaniards just couldn't cope with the movement and pace of the Italian side and succumbed early, firstly to a scrappy finish from right wing-back Hans Hateboer after good work from Alejandro Gomez, and then three minutes before the interval, fabulous physical play allowed for Josip Illicic to double the lead with a thunderbolt if a strike, that Jaume Domenech would've been disappointed to have got a hand to and not kept it out.
This was preceded by a minute's silence in memory of those who have died as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. When the game got under way in this new environment, Sheffield United were the victims of a serious first-half injustice when Villa keeper Orjan Nyland fell behind his goalline clutching Oliver Norwood's free-kick in the 41st minute, only for referee Michael Oliver's watch to fail to signal a goal.

There is also a chance the club will move for Atletico Madrid’s Saul Niguez, and RB Salzburg’s Erling Harland, though there is a better chance they will be bought at the end of the season. Paper Round’s view: United’s paper-thin squad has left them vulnerable across the pitch whenever one of their first-pick players gets an injury.

We’re confident that Crewe will score over 1.5 team goals on Saturday and we have predicted a final scoreline of 2-0 in favour of the visitors. Crewe have only lost one of their last six matches and have been playing well on the road and, while Macclesfield have only lost once at home and should prove a tough nut to crack, we believe the visitors secure all three points this weekend.
Last weekend, West Ham became the first Premier League team to lose a home match against Tottenham Hotspur since January, and away from home the Hammers are winless in four matches, losing the most recent two to nil against Everton and Burnley respectively.

They were let down with the most catastrophic consequences imaginable. I know how important these proceedings have been to everyone, even though they came far too late. Graham Mackrell, the Sheffield Wednesday club secretary at the time of the disaster, was found guilty of a charge under the Health and Safety at Work Act, in the previous trial.
The Power Engineer Turkmenbashi and Shagadam meet. This meeting may end in a draw with the score 1: 1.Well, there’s one Shagadam, although with guests the jokes are bad, they can score 2 as well. Well, both will score, and it begs it! This meeting within the seventh round of the Major League of Turkmenistan promises to be unpredictable. Two equal teams will play, showing not the best football in this championship. “Energetik”, occupying the seventh line of the standings, takes “Shagadam” from the fifth position on its field. Ordinary teams playing from defense, meeting show their game at all, this is a minus to a minus gives a plus, and here, we believe in goal meeting
Robinson, who started his career at Liverpool, joined Forest in 2018 and went on to make 59 appearances for the club. The 26-year-old has played as a left back for the majority of his career but can also operate in a left-sided centre back position. He becomes United's second signing of the January transfer window after Jack Rodwell joined on a short-term loan deal.
In the league Arsenal are struggling with no win in the last 5 games but in the Europa League they are performing much better with 10 points so far out of 4 games.

The game, which SPAL won 1-0, eventually went ahead 75 minutes later than scheduled, but sparked a furious debate. The players’ union (AIC) called for the suspension of the league, describing continuing as “dangerous” for players, but Serie A organisers accused the union of “contravening what was in the Government decree”, which allowed games to be played in empty stadiums.
On the European front, Atleti’s midweek 1-0 loss against Juventus in Turin means they need to beat Locomotiv Moscow at Wanda in a fortnight’s time to guarantee their progress to the Last 16 of the Champions League – a feat they should manage although the circumstances will inevitably heap plenty of pressure on Simeone’s men.
That will be a major concern for manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer but better news for him is the likely return of defender Eric Bailly, sidelined since July with a knee injury.

Al Oruba will host So hard for this fixture of the league. I believe, the visitors have better team than their opponent and I think they will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Yeah, Sohar are more ambitious team in this league. Sohar have a more offensive team. They have an effective attack. In any case, I expect, the visitors will have much chance to score a goal. Also, we have Al Oruba who's is one of the main outsiders in this league. Al Oruba is team of the relegation zone. Hosts have low potential. I think, they have relatively little chance to win. My pick - Sohar to win.
With Cheltenham they were following at the time the government guidelines," he told Good Morning Britain. They were the ones that had asked for advice. I suppose that will be the same when we stopped and when do we go back - the same people will be making decisions. Look, the reality of it is that a lot of lives have been lost because of it [coronavirus].
Everyone was hanging off balconies, waving flags and singing with brass bands playing,” Christian said. It was a bit crazy. We made the most of the atmosphere and some boys overindulged. That overindulging, and another step up in class, cost England. They were drawn in a group with Russia, Sweden and Germany and lost all three games. Not that ‘PSG’ seem to care. We walked onto the pitch holding a mascot’s hand, with the anthem playing, shook hands and exchanged pennants,” Christian said.

Levante stun Real - as it happenedEden Hazard missed Real's best chance midway through the second half before the Belgian forward hobbled off injured. The Spanish giants were then stunned as Nikola Vukcevic played a speculative ball over their defence and winger Morales raced on to it before unleashing a first-time strike from the left side of the Real box. Goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois actually pulled his hands away from the ball as Morales' shot flashed past the Belgian at his near post.
The scouting department have obviously identified Willian as a cut-price option and signing the Brazilian adds an experienced, goal-scoring wide player to the squad, who is also already adapted to the Premier League.
