For his manager Juergen Klopp, the sight of the Liverpool-born teenager curling in a winner that any of his first-choice stars would have been proud of was no surprise at all. Unbelievable player, Scouser, very confident, can’t wait to play in the first team, good, rightly so, he is (on) a very good way," said Klopp after the 1-0 win.
Unsurprisingly, PSG have been in fine scoring form at home this season. They've scored 24 goals in just nine matches at Parc des Princes, while they've made light work of keeping teams out too, conceding just three, keeping seven clean sheets. Their home record should fill the hosts with confidence, as should the fact that they recently got the better of St. Etienne away from home, winning by four goals to nil.

They remain sixth and four points behind the Blues. It is a useful point for Everton, who move three points above the relegation zone and look like a side reinvigorated under Ferguson. TALKING POINT Was it a foul on de Gea? There will be an argument that Calvert-Lewin impeded the United goalkeeper but he should have been stronger.
And what does that proper training look like? According to Keane, all Everton’s players have been given bespoke programmes, which they log with the medical team. It’s basically the same set-up as the nation’s children, except instead of one harassed maths teacher trying to explain trigonometry without revealing they’re wearing pyjama bottoms, it’s Carlo Ancelotti’s eyebrow logging onto Zoom.

Their journey to the semi-final was not only the football team's greatest achievement, but a voyage which gave Wales, as a nation, the recognition it had never enjoyed before. This weekend was meant to mark the start of Wales' Euro 2020 campaign but the tournament's postponement means they will have to wait to rekindle the euphoria of 2016. Once that opportunity arrives next summer, in Bale they will have the ultimate figurehead, a true legend.

Slavia will host Torpedo BelAZ for this fixture of the league. In my opinion, the visitors will try to get the victory on the opposite stadium. Torpedo BelAZ are more ambitious team in this season. They are currently on the 2nd place with 14 points. Also, the visitors are undefeated in their last 4 matches. In previous game Torpedo is won 2-5 against FC Minsk. On the other hand Slavia is not very good team. Also, Slavia is a very unpredictable team in this season. Slavia Mozyr are currently on the 7th place with 10 points. In any case, I think, the visitors have the potential to pick up the victory.
