The Everton manager admitted that his language and/or behaviour on the field of play at the end of the fixture amounted to improper conduct and also accepted the standard penalty," the FA said in a statement on Thursday. The decision means Ancelotti will be available on the touchline for Everton's league trip to his former club Chelsea on Sunday.
I watched Bengaluru in their last game at home with the league leaders from Goa, a game which did have 3 goals scored in it with Bengaluru winning it with 2-1 in the end but at least in the first half the defense of Bengaluru was all over the place but the Goa players simply could not score and it cost them all 3 points in the end, at the same time Bengaluru was very dangerous up-front and did manage to score twice in the second half of the game.
Diriangen will try to go one step closer to the final when they play against Real Esteli. Diriangen somehow managed to defeat Juventus Managua in the quarter-finals with a 1-0 scoreline, their main strength is their defense and they will go with another defensive approach here. relying on their rock-solid defense would be the wisest decision for them. Real Esteli, meanwhile, finished the season sitting on second position and they were 7 points behind Managua. An away goal would be enough for them in the first leg. Considering that both teams look solid at the defense, I think it will end on level.

It is the first time a side managed by Jose Mourinho failed to have a shot on target in a Premier League fixture since April 2007 during his first spell with former side Chelsea (against Newcastle). Callum Wilson's disallowed strike was the sixth time Tottenham have conceded a Premier League goal which has later been ruled out by VAR - only Brighton and Southampton (both seven) have had more. Since his Premier League debut in September 2018, Bournemouth's Jefferson Lerma has been shown 23 yellow cards in the division (12 last season, 11 this) - the most of any player in this time.
The 25-year-old has scored six goals in his last 15 games, including two against League One side Oxford in the Carabao Cup. Guardiola has picked Sterling at least 14 more times than any other player during his time at City. He feels the winger's "standards are quite similar" and there are "no doubts" over Sterling's overall contribution. Asked what could ease the fixture burden, the City boss replied: "Fewer games, fewer competitions, fewer teams.
The poster of the Sunday rivalry of the 22nd round of the Italian Serie A is quite interesting, in which Milan, with the support of the stands of his native San Siro, will play the role of the conqueror of 3 points in the battle against Verona. The only question is how much she will agree to give up.
Sadio Mane, the orchestrator of Liverpool's 5-2 Merseyside derby victory over Everton on Wednesday, was an unused substitute alongside centre-forward Divock Origi, while 18-year-old Curtis Jones came on for his Premier League debut. All in all, it was a successful afternoon for Liverpool, who just keep getting the job done. Injuries piling up for Bournemouth Bournemouth defender Nathan Ake was comforted by Liverpool centre-back Virgil van Dijk as he walked off the pitchEddie Howe's side were taught a lesson by the league leaders, but any hopes of an upset had been wiped away early on when centre-back Ake pulled up clutching his hamstring after making a superb last-ditch tackle on Salah.

They have conceded more than one goal in just one of their last 11 matches but are winless in their last two home matches. They have lost just once in the last five matches at home. Palace head to the game on four straight draws in the Premier League, while they have one win in eight league matches. They are unbeaten in four league matches at home, drawing two and winning two.
Inzaghi, however, is under no illusions. We know that there will be more attention on us from now on," he said during an event in Dubai last month. We know that in football you can never take your foot off the pedal. We know that we have done well but we need to start the new year better than we finished the old one.
I really would have wanted to take the guests to be winning this game by at least 2 goals difference as for example the best odds for that to happen are even 2.90 at some bookies which is quite big, because at the start of this season Linfield which won the title in this country last season quite easily defeated Glenavon with no less than 7-0 at home and they are very attacking minded and good at scoring goals even in away games so if you can find take the -1.5 AH on the guests or even bigger at great odds.
Lower down the football pyramid in England, the EFL has sent a letter to clubs recommending they return to training on 16 May at the earliest. The EFL has not discussed a league restart date with the government but told clubs: "Our planning needs to be agile enough to allow us to be as prepared as possible for a start at relatively short notice. What about other European leagues?The body that represents Europe's top leagues says when football does return it will "no doubt" be played behind closed doors.
Last season Newcastle won both games played by them against this reserve Stoke side winning first with 3-2 on the road and winning by the same score at home as well also another 3-2 win so quite high scoring games between them and indeed Newcastle seems to be a bit better despite bookies favoring Stoke to win this game and I see good chances that both teams shall be scoring here and that a 3rd goal should be happening here as well and so will take a bet on the over 2.5 goals here in this one at decent odds.
Roskilde and Koge will face each other in the upcoming match in the 1st Division in Denmark. Roskilde this season have the following results: 6W, 2D and 15L. Meanwhile Koge have 6W, 9D and 8L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.

Certainly better than Julien Faubert. He was a regular for West Ham at right-back without setting the world alight when Real Madrid signed him on January deadline day in 2009. He would make only two substitute appearances for Real - and go viral for appearing to sleep on the bench, although he said he was just resting his eyes. Faubert would spend another three years at West Ham - including in the Championship - before playing for clubs in Turkey, France, Scotland, Finland and Indonesia.
Pep Guardiola says the scrapping of FA Cup replays could be the solution to football's crowded fixture schedule. The Manchester City boss has previously expressed his concern at the increasing demands placed on players. Saturday's FA Cup tie against Fulham will be City's 37th game of the season. The Carabao Cup and FA Cup will be played. But maybe we could cancel the replays, have less teams in the Championship or Premier League," said Guardiola.
He hacked down Messi and the away side have shot themselves in the foot here. What a foolish thing to do. GOAL! Barcelona 1-0 Granada: At long, long last Barcelona have taken the lead! The Setien era is up and running at the Camp Nou! Puig won the ball high up the pitch, there was then a wonderful passing move between Busquets, Vidal and Messi and the former passed into the back of the net.

FCSB lost in a long time in the league on the road in their first game after the winter break but it was an expected defeat on their still they conceded quite late away at league leaders from CFR Cluj near the 80 minute of the game and it was a defender Vinicius who scored the winning goal for CFR Cluj in that one. Smaller fish for FCSB this time as Voluntari is bottom of the league with just 11 points, they are stress free, any points they win do help the side in their quest for avoiding relegation, they know they are likely to lose.
Both teams did bad lately and because the guests are last in the league I think a surprise will be possible and for me the guests will be able to win and so I go with this X2 FT. The teams are Cova and Porto B and this is a match for the Liga 2 in Portugal. The hosts so far after 11 matches played have 10 points and are in bottom zone. Have only 4 points more than guests and did 2 defeats in the last 2 matches. At home did only 1 win in last 5 matches and so all can happen here.
Crotone is making itself difficult in the promotion race for the Serie B Italia 2019/20 tournament. Crotone lost 3 and only won 2 of the last 5 rounds, so they were knocked out of the top 2 (the group has a direct promotion ticket). However, the chances of winning promotion are still wide open for Crotone because they are only less than the second team (Frosinone) by the distance of a win. But Crotone needs to improve the performance of the rest of the 2019/20 season. In round 26, Crotone had a difficult trip to the yard of Virtus Entella. But for many fans, they still appreciate the possibility that Crotone will have 3 points.
Mjallby AIF is playing in a bad shape right now. The home team has yet to bring in a score. They kicked off the boring season with a defeat. In the last 10 matches, the home team brought 6 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. With their current performance, they had to set their sights high on this battle. Home advantage is what they need to promote.
The round 20 of the Italian Serie A comes to an end as Atalanta plays at home against Spal. The home team, Atlanta are currently at the fifth position of the league standings. They have won 5 of 9 home matches played in the league this season. Only Lazio have scored more home goals than them in the league this season. The away team, Spal are currently at the last position of the league standings. They have lost 8 of 10 away matches in the league this season despite conceding fewer goals away from home than 7 other teams in the league. I don't think that the visitors will be able to score a goal today and I don't think Atalanta will score too much also. Good luck and bet responsibly.

The WTO also called for the country to "bring its measures into conformity with its obligations" under international law. In his letter to Uefa president Aleksander Ceferin, Almisehal said the SAFF was "heartened and encouraged" by the WTO's finding that Saudi Arabia was taking "action which it considered necessary for the protection of its essential security interests", and which the panel "found to be justified under WTO rules".
For FourFourTwo, Andy Murray (not that one) profiles Diego Simeone. RETRO CORNER He spots the keeper off his line, carefully lines up the shot and expertly judges the bounce into the corner of the net. On this day in 2003, Paul Robinson scores one of his two career goals… COMING UP Ben Snowball will be here tomorrow.
Woodward’s seats were left empty at the ground during the match on Saturday evening, with rumours of a walkout that failed to materialise in the 68th minute, according to the Daily Mail. Paper Round’s view: It is no surprise that Woodward ducked the game. He would prefer to duck any confrontation for both his own safety and to avoid continuing a story that threatens to overtake United’s season.
Palace are not a million miles behind and the close fight for European places suggests that the overall quality of the division is improving. With teams like Manchester United and Arsenal suffering through transitionary periods, there is an opportunity for clubs to take the European places previously thought to be their divine right.
Eintracht have lost to teams such as Augsburg, Wolfsburg, and Standard Liege this season, all of whom played primarily with a direct style of play, in a shape which emphasised width. Mainz scored five goals last weekend but had 36% possession versus Hoffenheim. They will likely set up similarly this Monday.
They have made two changes for this game with flanker Peter O'Mahoney (who came off the bench and played 76 minutes against Scotland) nd Centre Robbie Henshaw starting and replacing the injured Caelen Doris and Garry Ringrose. Ireland have won three of their last four games played against Wales, the most recent victories being two wins in World Cup warm-ups.
Saarsbruck are three leagues below their opponents. Saarsbruck haven't played since the start of March. Bayer Leverkusen have won six of their last eight games in all competitions. Bayer Leverkusen have won six of their last seven away league games. The German Cup resumes and has reached its semi-final stage.
Frank Lampard faced pressure, the first serious questions of his time as Chelsea manager and the sledgehammer subtlety of Jose Mourinho's mind games - so it was no surprise he celebrated victory over Tottenham so exuberantly. Lampard also survived the latest VAR shambles, more of which later, to fashion a 2-1 win that restores stability to a listing Chelsea and puts them back in control of their destiny in the fight for top-four places.
But just when Liverpool fans thought their season could not get any better, the prospect of sealing the title at the home of their nearest rivals Everton, or the current champions Manchester City, is now a very real one. BBC Sport has crunched the numbers to work out when and where Liverpool could become champions again.

The loss at West Ham last weekend was their third loss in four league games and they are only seven points above the bottom three. Southampton won their last home league game (beating Aston Villa 2-0) but still have the worst home record in the Premier League. Only four out of 14 league games played at St Mary's have been won this season.
Assisted by Leigh Griffiths. Posted at 53' Foul by Tomas Rogic (Celtic). Newcastle took a huge step towards securing their Premier League status for another season as Allan Saint-Maximin's late goal saw off 10-man Southampton at St Mary's. The hosts had been reduced to 10 men midway through the first half when Moussa Djnepro's yellow card was upgraded to a red following a VAR review of his foul on Isaac Hayden.
After seeing off fifth-tier Langnon-Castets 3-0, they beat another Ligue 2 side, Cannes, again on penalties - which brought each of their players a huge £2,000 bonus and firmly into the public limelight. If that win caused waves, the next, against Ligue 1 Strasbourg, prompted a tsunami of public recognition. Technically a home draw, the tie was played in Lens because Calais’ 2,100-capacity stadium - usually home to 300 staunch fans on a weekend - was too small.
That statistic moves us smoothly towards our prediction for the evening. We’ve touched upon Crystal Palace’s poor home record, and the main culprit of this is their seeming inability to find the net in front of the home fans. They have scored just five goals in seven home league games this season, and looking back into last season they have averaged a meagre 0.92 goals per game there.
The top 18 teams are closer than that. Focusing on Forest and Leeds in particular, the gap is four points. Leeds are in the second automatic promotion spot and Forest have a play-off place thanks to their fourth-place position. Despite their lofty positions, both teams lost at the weekend (both suffering their seventh league defeats of the campaign).
The team began the new season with new hope after American billionaire Rocco Commisso bought the club in June in a deal reported by Reuters to be valued at £132 million. The new owners immediately strengthened the squad, signing Brazilian forward Pedro, Chilean midfielder Erick Pulgar, Liverpool teenager Bobby Duncan as well as veteran French winger Franck Ribery, who joined after nine seasons at Bayern Munich, and also managed to hold on to forward Federico Chiesa.
