David Beckham in crowd as Salford City lose to Dover
David Beckham in crowd as Salford City lose to Dover

David Beckham in crowd as Salford City lose to Dover. Former England captain David Beckham has watched Salford City for the first time since becoming a co-owner of the National League club. But Beckham was unable to celebrate a win as promotion-chasing Salford were beaten 3-1 at home by Dover. Last month Beckham followed in the footsteps of his former Manchester United team-mates Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt as he secured a 10 per cent stake in the club. That means the 'Class of 92' members are the major shareholders of the club at 60 per cent, and Beckham took to the stands at Salford's Peninsula Stadium on Saturday. Accompanied by his son Romeo, as well as Phil Neville, Beckham was inundated with autograph and selfie requests on his arrival at the stadium. His involvement in the club comes five years after the Neville brothers, Scholes, Giggs and Butt took ownership at Moor Lane. It is the latest venture by the 43-year-old Beckham, who has a wide portfolio of interests following a globe-trotting career which, following his trophy-laden stint at Old Trafford, took in Real Madrid, Los Angeles Galaxy, AC Milan and Paris Saint-Germain. One of his more memorable moments as a player was his goal from the halfway line for United at Wimbledon in 1996 and Salford's teenage midfielder Dennis Politic followed suit, giving his side the lead with a 45-yard drive that sailed over visiting goalkeeper Mitch Walker. That goal came in the ninth minute and fifth-placed Salford looked on course to boost their promotion hopes. But Dover, who are down in 20th, equalised in the 25th-minute through Dan McNamara, before claiming all three points thanks to second-half goals from Scott Doe (59) and Jai Reason (81).

Southend 3 3 Portsmouth Simon Cox fires hat trick to complete stunning Shrimpers comeback
Southend 3 3 Portsmouth Simon Cox fires hat trick to complete stunning Shrimpers comeback

Southend 3-3 Portsmouth: Simon Cox fires hat-trick to complete stunning Shrimpers comeback. Southend showed their battling qualities as a hat-trick from Simon Cox completed a stunning comeback for a 3-3 draw with promotion-chasing Portsmouth at Roots Hall. The Shrimpers trailed 3-0 inside 31 minutes through goals from Bryn Morris (8), Ben Close (20) and Oliver Hawkins (31) for Pompey. But Cox began the revival when he headed in from Samuel Hart's cross nine minutes before the break. The striker then converted a penalty after Michael Kightly was fouled inside the box by Morris (78), and he fired in his 15th goal of the season with three minutes remaining to complete the comeback. The result moved Chris Powell's side up to 13th ahead of the remaining League One fixtures on Saturday, while Portsmouth are back above Sunderland into third, although they missed the chance to go level on points with second-placed Barnsley. Kenny Jackett must be wondering how this contest slipped away from his side, with Pompey good value for their 3-0 lead. Jamal Lowe combined with Omar Bogle down the right for the opener, as Southend stopper Nathan Bishop could only parry the cross into the path of Morris to lash in his first goal for the visitors. Southend were still re-organising themselves when Close fired in a second as Michael Turner's attempts to clear from Bogle's threaded pass seeking Hawkins fell kindly for the midfielder. Eleven minutes later, it looked like the division's best away performers would be celebrating another victory on the road when Hawkins tapped in the rebound after Morris' shot deflected back into play off Bishop's right-hand post. But Southend dug deep and reduced the deficit when Cox headed past Craig MacGillivray from Hart's deep cross. Portsmouth's attacking threat faded in the second period, but it was not until Morris' inexplicable challenge on Kightly with 12 minutes remaining that the hosts further regained a foothold, allowing Cox to score his second from the spot. Powell's men then restored parity when Timothee Dieng showed brilliant awareness to find Cox free on the edge of the box, and his curled shot left MacGillivray with no chance to complete an unlikely turnaround.

Was Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka fouled for Wolves equaliser
Was Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka fouled for Wolves equaliser

Was Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka fouled for Wolves equaliser? . Willy Boly snatched a point in the last minute for Wolves against Newcastle, but did he foul Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka when heading home? Isaac Hayden's first goal since October 2017 looked to have put Newcastle on course for a crucial three points at Molineux on Monday Night Football, with the clock past the allotted four minutes of additional time. However, one last cross from Adama Traore put Newcastle under pressure. Boly went up with Newcastle 'keeper Dubravka, headed into the net, with the referee signalling for a goal, despite Newcastle appealing for a foul on their 'keeper. Jamie Carragher feels the referee got it spot on. "It wasn't a foul, and you have to give great credit to Wolves and Boly," he said. "Dubravka has been a great goalkeeper for Newcastle, but has made a few mistakes of late. Boly shows great determination to get there, and knock defenders out of the way. "Boly's hands are resting on the goalkeeper's shoulders but that is it. The goalkeeper does not cover himself in glory, and not for the first time in the last few weeks."

Athletic Bilbao 0 0 Barcelona Marc Andre Ter Stegen salvages point for Barca
Athletic Bilbao 0 0 Barcelona Marc Andre Ter Stegen salvages point for Barca

Athletic Bilbao 0-0 Barcelona: Marc-Andre Ter Stegen salvages point for Barca. Marc-Andre Ter Stegen produced two fine saves to deny Athletic Bilbao victory as a lacklustre Barcelona were held to a goalless draw at the Estadio San Mames. Ter Stegen turned away Markel Susaeta's arcing shot before the break and then produced a superb reflex stop to repel Inaki Williams' effort from point-blank range as time ran down on a night when the La Liga leaders were unable to restore their eight-point advantage over second-placed Real Madrid. Indeed, had it not been for the German, they might even have left empty-handed with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez misfiring as Gaizka Garitano's men started and finished strongly. Bilbao signalled their intention to press the visitors from the off and saw appeals for an early penalty waved away after Oscar De Marcos flicked the ball against Nelson Semedo's arm inside the area. The visitors eased themselves into the game as Messi and Suarez, prompted by Philippe Coutinho, started to make their presence felt, although Athletic were handed the 11th-minute opportunity when Yuri Berchiche intercepted Arturo Vidal's loose pass and raced forward before firing just wide. Ter Stegen had to pull off a fine save to keep out Susaeta's curling left-foot shot six minutes later and Barcelona were less than comfortable in dealing with the two corners which followed in quick succession. Suarez glanced a 22nd-minute header wide from Messi's inviting cross as Barca responded, but Ter Stegen was called upon once again to keep out Raul Garcia's acrobatic volley two minutes later. Messi clipped a shot onto the top of the crossbar and over after goalkeeper Iago Herrerin had raced from his line to deny Semedo and then forced Herrerin into an inelegant save at his near post, but Raul Garcia saw a shot deflected wide by Sergi Roberto four minutes before the break. Ernesto Valverde's men returned in much more positive mood and Messi curled a 53rd-minute free-kick just over, although the Argentina international was growing increasingly irritated by Bilbao's physical approach to marking him. Substitute Mikel San Jose blasted just wide as the home side finally managed to put together a second-half attack with 65 minutes gone and Williams saw an audacious flick from De Marcos' cross blocked six minutes later. Suarez stabbed wide with the outside of his right foot after turning on Messi's 74th-minute pass, but Gerard Pique did just enough at the other end to prevent Williams from making meaningful contact with substitute Iker Muniain's free-kick five minutes later. Ter Stegen made an instinctive save to keep out Williams' close-range shot after he had been picked out in front of goal by Muniain with eight minutes remaining, and although Athletic saw De Marcos dismissed for a second bookable offence in stoppage time, there was to be no late drama.

Serie A round up Inter beat Parma as Napoli stumble to draw against Fiorentina
Serie A round up Inter beat Parma as Napoli stumble to draw against Fiorentina

Serie A round-up: Inter beat Parma as Napoli stumble to draw against Fiorentina. Substitute Lautaro Martinez scored Inter Milan's first Serie A goal this year to give them a much-needed 1-0 win at Parma on Saturday. Martinez replaced Joao Mario in the 77th minute and made his mark within two minutes. Inter won possession in midfield and Radja Nainggolan slipped the ball to the Argentine who held off his marker and fired his shot into the roof of the net. Luciano Spalletti's side remain third in Serie A, and on course for the Champions League next season, with 43 points while Parma are 12th with 29. The visitors, whose previous three league games produced a 0-0 draw with Sassuolo and 1-0 defeats to Torino and lowly Bologna, had a let-off before halftime when former Liverpool and Roma forward Gervinho crashed a shot against the Inter bar. ⏱| FT | #ParmaInter ALL OVER! #Lautaro with the winner! 🐂Had to grind it out and we did. Onwards and upwards! #ForzaInter pic.twitter.com/Gc4SiAGVSu Danilo D'Ambrosio thought he had broken Inter's duck when he turned the ball in from a corner in the 54th minute but it was chalked off after a VAR review showed that the ball struck his arm. Inter gained in confidence after the goal and Matias Vecino saw a shot cleared off the line while Marcelo Brozovic hit the upright with a low shot. Second-placed Napoli wasted half a dozen clear-cut chances as they were held 0-0 at Fiorentina, their fourth successive away game in all competitions without scoring. Napoli, whose hopes of winning the title last season effectively ended with a 3-0 defeat in the same fixture, were left eight points behind leaders Juventus who visit Sassuolo on Sunday. "I would say they are two points lost, we played well and it was not the right result," Napoli coach Carlo Ancelotti said. "We lacked the finishing touch. We had some difficulties building from the back because they pressed hard but when we got past that, we managed to create chances. We've just got to work on our finishing."

Barnet chairman Tony Kleanthous gives up FA Cup ticket
Barnet chairman Tony Kleanthous gives up FA Cup ticket

Barnet chairman Tony Kleanthous gives up FA Cup ticket. Barnet chairman Tony Kleanthous has given up his ticket for their FA Cup replay with Brentford as he "didn't feel comfortable sitting with the prawn sandwich brigade" while some Barnet fans missed the club's "special occasion". Kleanthous was unhappy Barnet had only been given an allocation of 1,660 tickets for the tie at Griffin Park. He wanted their maximum allocation of 1,914 (15 percent of Griffin Park's capacity) It emerged Brentford had asked for special dispensation to provide less than the maximum allocation for away fans, on Friday, which the FA then granted on Saturday on grounds of health and safety. As a compromise, the FA asked Brentford to provide Barnet with a small number of additional tickets, which the club duly complied with. Kleanthous said the extra tickets along with the complimentary allocation for Barnet staff meant they were able to satisfy the demand of their members and therefore the matter was now closed. Despite stating his disappointment with Brentford chairman Cliff Crown's initial refusal to compromise, Kleanthous says he was unwilling to "cry over spilt milk" and is happy to watch the match with Barnet fans at The Hive where the FA have permitted the club to purchase a live stream of the game.

St Johnstone 0 2 Celtic Scottish Premiership champions restore six point lead over Rangers
St Johnstone 0 2 Celtic Scottish Premiership champions restore six point lead over Rangers

St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic: Scottish Premiership champions restore six-point lead over Rangers. Two late strikes saw Celtic restore their six-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership with a hard-earned 2-0 win at St Johnstone on Sunday. James Forrest, who later had to hobble off with a hamstring injury, finally made the breakthrough with just 12 minutes to go, before substitute Timothy Weah sealed the win in the final minute. And despite Kristoffer Ajer's injury-time red card, the champions held on to stay six points ahead of second-placed Rangers, while the Saints remain sixth in the table. The home team had struggled to create many meaningful openings in their 2-0 defeat at Celtic in midweek, but they were almost ahead within just five minutes. However, faced with just Scott Bain to beat, Matty Kennedy shot too close to the Celtic 'keeper and thereafter the visitors took control. The closest Celtic came to making the breakthrough was just before the quarter-hour mark when Jason Kerr appeared to catch Oliver Burke in the box, only for referee William Collum to wrongly decide the St Johnstone defender had got the ball. Brendan Rodgers's side moved up a gear in the second period, only to find Zander Clark in inspired form between the posts, with the Saints No 1 making a succession of impressive stops to keep the scoreline goalless. But just as St Johnstone's fans were starting to believe their team could earn yet another clean sheet, Scott Tanser lost concentration at the far post, allowing Forrest to nip in and touch home Weah's cross from the left. St Johnstone made four changes from the side that lost 2-0 at Celtic in midweek, with Ross Callachan, Matty Kennedy, Sean Goss and Tony Watt all coming into the starting XI.Meanwhile, Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers stuck with the same line-up that beat the Saints at home on Wednesday. It was Weah who wrapped up proceedings late on after St Johnstone lost the ball from their own corner, allowing Callum McGregor to break upfield and set up the on-loan PSG forward for a simple tap in. The champions' day may have been spoiled when Ajer was given a straight red after losing possession to Callum Hendry - son of former Scotland defender Colin - and pulling the substitute back as he broke clear on goal. But their victory did mean Rodgers has now won 75 of his first 100 league games in charge of Celtic, matching the record of the legendary Jock Stein. Celtic take on Hibernian at Celtic Park, while St Johnstone travel to Hamilton, with both Scottish Premiership games taking place on Wednesday night.
