Salomón Rondón steals Everton’s thunder but Richarlison soon makes their point
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF Premier League Rafael Benítez said it was business as usual when asked for an update on the latest takeover talk at Newcastle United. The same applies to his ability to make life difficult for Everton and deliver a viable Premier League concern to whoever takes ownership of St James’ Park. Newcastle owner Mike Ashley looking at four bids in excess of £300m for club Read more Newcastle departed with a valuable and well-earned point as they responded impressively to Saturday’s home defeat by West Ham, their only loss in six league games. It could have been three but for Jordan Pickford’s fine late save from Christian Atsu and a poor finish from the same player when clean through on goal in the 90th minute. Not that Benítez was complaining. Everton had sought a release from the misery of Sunday’s freakish defeat in the Merseyside derby. Pickford’s intervention aside, it proved beyond them. Fatigue and a lack of finesse in attacking positions ensured the after-effects of Anfield lingered for Marco Silva’s team. “We had chances to win it at the end,” the Newcastle manager said, “but they had won four home games in a row so to get a point in this stadium with the way things are going for us was a credit to our players. The application was fantastic. They have top-class players, players with World Cup and Euros experience coming from the bench, so our players have done a great job.” Pickford received a rousing ovation from the crowd before kick-off – responding with an appreciative clenched-fist salute following his error at Liverpool – although the away section was predictably scathing in its reception for the born-and-bred Sunderland fan. The baiting intensified when the England No 1 was beaten from the first Newcastle attack of the game. Ademola Lookman, making his first league start of the season, was dispossessed in the Newcastle half. His appeals for a foul were ignored by the referee as Jacob Murphy raced down the left before delivering a precise cross low along the face of Pickford’s goal. Kurt Zouma and Yerry Mina were unable to intercept and Salomón Rondón steered a powerful finish into the roof of the net at the back post. “It was a foul, possibly two, but that is not an excuse because we had to defend that situation better,” said Silva. Everton, with André Gomes leading a composed display from central midfield, were not unduly disturbed by the setback. The left-wing partnership of Richarlison and Lucas Digne was potent and it engineered excellent chances for Gylfi Sigurdsson and the recalled Cenk Tosun before the interval. Sigurdsson was foiled by a superb block from Federico Fernández while Tosun volleyed straight at Martin Dubravka when picked out by another Digne cross. The home side had levelled at that stage and a 2-1 lead, seconds before the interval, could have change
James Maddison earns Leicester draw at Claudio Ranieri’s Fulham
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF Premier League Fulham’s progress under Claudio Ranieri is being measured in small steps. The Italian and his players departed this tight contest vaguely dissatisfied to have taken only a point having led Leicester City through much of the second half, their mood coloured by the sight of Denis Odoi wastefully scooping a shot over the crossbar in stoppage time. Yet in the cold light of day, the improvements seen here should suggest a brighter future awaits. The weight of the division still bears down on the Londoners but they are not the soft touch they were a few weeks ago. Three games into Ranieri’s tenure and some of the naivety has been drummed out of them. There were long periods while confronting a team with top-half credentials when Fulham even felt in control, their lead established against the run of play but their shape well-enforced thereafter and a threat carried on the counterattack. The frustration, of course, was that all it took was one moment of carelessness with the end almost in sight to undo a lot of their hard work. Lingard earns point for Manchester United after De Gea hands Arsenal lead Read more Leicester conjured their equaliser when the substitutes Demarai Gray and Shinji Okazaki combined slickly down the visitors’ right flank and the latter, allowed space by a disoriented Alfie Mawson, pulled the ball back to the penalty spot. There loitered James Maddison, the classiest attacking talent on the pitch, to dispatch a crisp first-time finish into the bottom corner. The hosts’ wait for a first clean sheet of the season had been extended. “At this moment, when we make mistakes, the big opponents score,” said Ranieri. “But we continue to progress. Slowly, slowly.” This had been an emotional experience for the Italian against the team with whom he claimed the only top-flight title of his managerial career to date. He had offered his tribute to the late Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha prior to kick-off, acknowledged the chants of the away support and saw four key members of his Premier League winning side start in Leicester’s ranks. Yet, other than a quick “hello” to familiar faces, he concentrated purely on Fulham’s latest opportunity and gained encouragement from much that he witnessed. Fulham could point to the substitute Tom Cairney fizzing a shot just wide of the post while their lead still stood or that late miss by Odoi. Leicester threatened repeatedly in the first half and Kelechi Iheanacho should have scored the game’s opening goal early on. But at the other end Kasper Schmeichel was forced into an astonishing fingertip save to deny Callum Chambers – a makeshift defensive midfielder who seems destined to bring the best out of opposing goalkeepers having tested Chelsea consistently on Sunday – as he belted a volley from Odoi’s nod back towards the far corner.

Shane Duffy sees red but 10-man Brighton too strong for Crystal Palace
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF Premier League Brighton & Hove Albion have enjoyed plenty of giddy highs since ascending back into English football’s top division, from successive wins over Manchester United to a home humbling of Arsenal, though this may be the victory they have enjoyed most to date. Crystal Palace, their perceived derby rivals, were humiliated by a team who had been reduced to 10 before the half–hour. The home fans revelled in a night of complete superiority. The players conducted a lap of celebration after the final whistle with Lewis Dunk, a local, whipped up into a joyous frenzy. “We showed character,” said Brighton’s captain. “The win is for the fans. They have the bragging rights. I hope they enjoy it.” The memory of the bedlam of the latter stages of the first half, when Brighton had led by three and lost a man, will live long in the memory. Callum Wilson keeps Bournemouth on high despite Huddersfield onslaught Read more There was ruthlessness to admire, most notably from the substitute, Florin Andone, whose charge on to Bernardo’s clearance deep into first-half stoppage time had yielded the third to remove all belief from Palace. The forward ran past the retreating James Tomkins, who simply could not keep up, conscious as he was that he had just been booked. Andone eventually cut back inside the centre–half and, via the defender’s toe, slammed in his side’s final goal. It summed up Palace’s slapdash defending that Tomkins’ inadvertent touch had actually made the angle kinder from which to convert though, by then, they had long since become frazzled by a game of catch–up. Brighton were organised and robust throughout, their 10 men beaten only when Leon Balogun tripped Wilfried Zaha late on for Luka Milivojevic to score a consolation from the spot. “It was probably one of our proudest wins, so special,” Chris Hughton said. “We knew we’d have to defend well but I ended up being disappointed they got the penalty. I know they had a lot of the ball, but I felt we deserved the clean sheet.” Despite that late riposte, the hosts had never properly been threatened. Of all the teams against whom to defend a lead en masse, Palace, so horribly blunt without a true focal point to their attack, are one of the more inviting. They have actually been leaning heavily on their own defensive surety, so their capitulation was cause for real concern given the relegation scrap into which they have descended. Palace were justifiably incensed at the decision to award the penalty which opened the scoring. James McArthur reached the ball to poke it away before José Izquierdo collided with him and crumpled to the turf. Yet Aaron Wan–Bissaka and Milivojevic should already have cleared, the pair tangling in mid–air and deflecting the loose ball into the box. And there were no excuses for everything that followed. Gl
Chelsea’s Ruben Loftus-Cheek wants first-team chance and may ask for loan
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF Chelsea • Loftus-Cheek hoping for rare league start against Wolves • Midfielder may ask for January loan if he stays on fringes Ruben Loftus-Cheek will make a decision over his short-term future at Chelsea later this month as he waits to discover if the positive impact he has made in recent weeks earns him a first Premier League start of the season against Wolverhampton Wanderers. The England midfielder has scored five goals in his last six club appearances, including the team’s second against Fulham on Sunday to secure a timely derby success, to draw praise from the head coach, Maurizio Sarri. The 22-year-old has been a regular in the Europa League and Carabao Cup selections this season, regaining his place in the national squad for last month’s fixtures as a result, but craves greater involvement in the top flight. Chelsea’s Loftus-Cheek seals journey back to reality for Ranieri’s Fulham Read more Crystal Palace are keen to take the midfielder back to Selhurst Park, where he enjoyed a productive season-long loan last season, but Chelsea had made clear to prospective suitors that he would not be permitted to leave mid-season. However, it is understood Loftus-Cheek is still prepared to ask for a temporary switch if opportunities remain elusive through a busy month of fixtures up to the opening of the transfer window, not least in Wednesday’s trip to Molineux where his recent form would justify inclusion from the start. The player, who has spoken regularly one-on-one with Sarri over his development, has been more progressive in his play of late, adding a different dimension to Chelsea’s midfield. “My mind-set is when I get the opportunity to play, whether it is the Europa League or Premier League, I have got to do my best and try and make stuff happen, but also do what the manager asks me to do defensively,” he said. “I want to carry on like that. I’m just trying to improve my all-round game and hopefully I can build on this run. “I am here right now, I am at Chelsea and I want to focus on helping the team. When I am on the pitch I can’t have any negative thoughts when I am in and around the team because it will affect the team. So my head right now is on playing for Chelsea and learning Sarri’s way. Individually and as a team, that’s all I can do at the moment. I can’t think too far ahead. I can only think about what’s happening right now. “It is a difficult period coming up where we have to be fully focused. There’s loads of games, so loads of rotation, so we all need to be ready physically and mentally for this. It is all a learning curve, so I am just really focused and aware on what I need to learn.” Chelsea news Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Share via Email Share on LinkedIn Share on Pinterest Share on Google+ Share on WhatsApp Share on Messenger Reuse this
Last-gasp derby error ensures away day blues continue to haunt Everton
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF Jordan Pickford held up his hands in apology to the aghast away section after gifting the 232nd Merseyside derby to Liverpool. Other Everton players lay on the pitch, stared into the middle distance or, in the case of Lucas Digne, stormed down the tunnel pushing aside every offer of consolation as he went. Liverpool’s 96th-minute winning goal had been freakish but the outcome, the pain and regret, were all-too familiar for their Merseyside rivals. Anfield remains Everton’s venue of nightmares. This was, as Jürgen Klopp had predicted, the Liverpool manager’s toughest assignment in a Merseyside derby and far removed from his first experience, when a 4-0 defeat of Roberto Martínez’s shambolic Everton side left him bemoaning a second half that was “no real fight any more”. This was a fight from the first minute to the 96th, when the England goalkeeper pawed a Virgil van Dijk miscue that was sailing out of play back on to his crossbar and on to the head of the grateful Divock Origi. Origi, a potential transfer target for Everton next month, duly nodded home to send Klopp sprinting across the field of play, Liverpool back to within two points of Manchester City and their local rivals into despair. The last time Everton savoured a win in these quarters was in 1999. With errors of this magnitude and gilt-edged chances squandered, the drought seems less surprising by the year. Pickford started and finished the derby carelessly, slicing a routine clearance out for a corner in the opening seconds before being trapped by uncertainty at the very last, but performed well in-between with one stop from Xherdan Shaqiri particularly impressive. The in-between will be forgotten. Errors rarely escape punishment at this level and for all Everton’s improvement and Liverpool’s late fortune – “lucky, lucky, lucky Liverpool” as Marco Silva described them – the majority were served up by those in royal blue. The visible lift in their performance and adventure at Anfield offers meagre consolation in the aftermath of a defeat of this nature. There has been clear improvement during the first five months of Silva’s reign without the statement victory against a top-six club that would enhance his side’s confidence and make the rest of the Premier League take notice. It is a deep-rooted flaw that precedes the current Everton manager and dates so long it appears to grip the club’s psyche in the build-up to such assignments, Anfield especially. In the past 10 years alone Everton have won only five of 64 away games against the leading pack – losing 36 and drawing 23. Their most recent victory at a so-called big six club came at Manchester United in December 2013 – their first win at Old Trafford in the past 26 years – while it has been eight years since a win at Manchester City, 10 at Tottenham, 19 at Liverpool, 22 at Arsen
Celtic claim Scottish League Cup after Ryan Christie strike denies Aberdeen
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF Scottish League Cup The seventh trophy of Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic tenure felt like the most hard-fought. An under-par Celtic display, coupled with spirited resistance from Aberdeen, contributed to a tight League Cup final. Aberdeen emerge from this game with credit but Celtic demonstrated that valuable commodity of earning victory when not at peak level. A single-goal victory means Rodgers retains his record of winning every Scottish competition placed in front of him. The first half was most notable for a sickening incident. Gary Mackay-Steven leapt to connect with a Shay Logan cross, but the Aberdeen winger was instead involved in a clash of heads with Dedryck Boyata. The reaction of other players illustrated what trouble Mackay-Steven was in; after six minutes of treatment he left the field on a stretcher. Boyata was able to play on, albeit with head heavily bandaged. Celtic v Aberdeen: Scottish League Cup final – live! Read more Aberdeen’s plan to sit deep and frustrate Celtic had largely worked during that opening period. Tom Rogic clipped an Aberdeen post with a 20-yard effort and James Forrest screwed wide but Celtic were pretty punchless. Not that Aberdeen offered much more in a taut first half, save a Dominic Ball effort which flew high over the crossbar. Perhaps there was no surprise, then, that Celtic’s breakthrough arrived by virtue of going back to basics during lengthy stoppage time. Boyata lofted the ball from halfway towards Ryan Christie, whose run from midfield was not matched by Graeme Shinnie. Christie’s first shot was smartly saved by Joe Lewis but the Celtic player retained his footing sufficiently to scoop the rebound into Aberdeen’s net. The second half was considerably more open. There was also controversy; that Celtic were awarded a penalty for an alleged Ball handling offence was wrong both because there was no such infringement and said incident occurred outside the penalty area. Lewis partly spared the blushes of Andrew Dallas, the referee, by batting Scott Sinclair’s spot-kick away. Jozo Simunovic, in his first action after replacing the injured Boyata, shanked an attempted clearance against his own bar. Filip Benkovic and Sinclair came close to doubling Celtic’s lead. Aberdeen lacked nothing whatsoever in character but, not for the first time this season, hardly looked potent. Set-pieces appeared Aberdeen’s best hope of salvation; from one, Scott McKenna flicked a header narrowly wide.

Florin Andone strike takes Brighton past 10-man Huddersfield
how to live healthy and longevity : https://goo.gl/3L1CLn how to learn super speed? https://goo.gl/cPZGKt FIFA's Secret 19: https://goo.gl/FfPqWF The Observer Premier League Florin Andone’s first goal in English football earned Brighton the victory and their first in four Premier League matches. The Romanian striker, signed from Deportivo La Coruña in the summer and making his first Premier League start, headed home the second-half winner. Huddersfield, who played the last hour with 10 men following the controversial dismissal of Steve Mounié, had stormed into a first-minute lead through Mathias Jørgensen. Brighton equalised in first-half stoppage time through Shane Duffy’s towering header and made their numerical advantage tell in the second period. Javier Hernández double helps West Ham end Newcastle’s winning run Read more David Wagner was unhappy with Michael Oliver: “We have to accept the referee’s decision and he thought it was a red card,” the Huddersfield manager said. “The next big decision was a clear penalty on Alex Pritchard and a red card because it was a clear chance. “All the big ones against us he got wrong. This is why at the moment football is no fun. Absolutely no fun. The referee has a big part to play and I don’t think he did his best. Even if he didn’t mean to.” Chris Hughton said: “It is difficult when you are the team with 11 men but we made the extra man show and Florin Andone’s goal was excellent. It is an important three points away from home.” The hosts charged out of the blocks and went 1-0 up after 55 seconds – the quickest goal in the Premier League this season. Brighton’s Spanish defender Bruno made a hash of his attempted clearance and after the ball looped back into the penalty area, Jørgensen headed in off the crossbar. The visitors went close to an equaliser in the 15th minute. Duffy’s header was saved by Jonas Lössl and Andone fired the rebound straight at Jonathan Hogg on the goal-line. Alex Pritchard then threatened for Huddersfield, pulling a low shot wide from 18 yards after his initial effort had been blocked. Huddersfield were dealt a major blow in the 32nd minute when Mounié was shown a red card for his challenge on Yves Bissouma. It appeared to be a harsh decision. Mounié caught Bissouma high on the shin but there looked to be little intent. Terence Kongolo’s header was scrambled clear and after Oliver had waved away penalty appeals from the hosts when Pritchard went down, Aaron Mooy’s free-kick from 20 yards out forced Mathew Ryan into a smart low save. Leicester’s James Maddison sinks Watford with sublime volley Read more Brighton equalised just before the interval. Solly March curled over an enticing cross and Duffy rose highest to power home his header.
