Real Madrid vs. Celta de Vigo

Spanish La Liga

Date: 02 January 2020

Venue: Alfredo Di Stéfano Stadium

 

Those of Zinedine Zidane fired 2020 with a misstep against Elche, a draw, and a loss of points that left Atletico as the sole leader despite having two games players

 


The result left a Madrid that cries out for a second unit in its squad to support the headlines. The Frenchman, always habitual in rotations, put aside the distribution of minutes in a delicate first moment of the course. The whites reacted in the Champions League to be in the second round and in the league to be second, but in the crucial stretch of the season, the risk will be minimal.

 

Zidane already had to give some freshness to his eleven, seeking to recover Asensio and Hazard, although Kroos, Modric, and Casemiro once again squeezed themselves in the center of the field. Federico Valverde has been playing minutes after returning from his injury, but still not in his best condition. Added to this is the loss for this clash by Sergio Ramos.

 

On the Celta side, they appear at an opportune moment to look for the blow in Di Stéfano and beat Madrid in LaLiga after almost seven years. After their defeat in Eduardo Coudet's debut and falling to last place, those from Vigo recovered and advanced to the eighth box. With six wins and one draw since then, they have the best current streak of the tournament, and now they are close to inserting themselves in the European zones.

With Neymar and Mbappe, PSG will play its first Champions League final

PSG reached the final of the Champions League for the first time in its fifty years of history, after beating German RB Leipzig 3-0 this Tuesday in Lisbon, in the first semifinal of the top European tournament.

 

The Brazilian Marquinhos (minute 13), the Argentine Ángel Di María (42), and the Spanish Juan Bernat (56) signed the many Parisians. Di María was also the author of the assistance in the goals of his teammates.

 

Paris Saint-Germain will meet in Sunday's final at the Estadio da Luz in the Portuguese capital with the winner of the second semi-final, another Franco-German duel, which will take place on Wednesday between Lyon and Bayern Munich.

 

It had been twenty-five years since PSG had played a semifinal of the highest European tournament and then Milan blocked their way to the final. This time he broke the limit of the penultimate round and is already one step away from lifting the 'Orejona', the great obsession of its Qatari owners.

 

After suffering the quarterfinals against Atalanta (2-1), in which PSG had to come back with two goals in injury time, the semifinal match was much calmer.

 

Striker Kylian Mbappé, who played the last half-hour against the Italians, started for the first time after his ankle injury at the end of last month and Di María, absent in the quarterfinals due to suspension, returned to the team in the best way with his goal and his two assists.

 

For its part, RB Leipzig, the executioner in the round of 16 of the current European runner-up Tottenham and the quarterfinals of Atlético de Madrid, awakens from his dream. He will be left with the consolation of having lived the best European season of his barely eleven years of life.

Chinese Football Will Return At the End of June 2020

Although there is no official date, it is estimated that the Chinese championship could start in late July or early July. The Chinese Super League, which had to be stopped in late January due to the Covid-19 epidemic, is scheduled to start in late June or early July, said a CEO of the Primera club.

Leagues around the world, especially in Europe, follow this Super League with interest to get an idea of the obstacles that await them to relaunch their own competitions. The Chinese championship was supposed to start on February 22. But already the first day was postponed due to the epidemic, which started in China in December before spreading to the entire planet.

"According to the current situation, the new season will start in late June or early July," the CEO of Guangzhou R&F First Division Club said Sunday, the official China New News Agency reported.

According to him, the competition must be played in its entirety and the 16 championship teams must play their 30 games. The Chinese soccer federation has not yet officially announced a date for the resumption of the Super League.

China has slowed the epidemic on its territory, but is concerned about a second wave of pollution imported by people arriving from abroad. Former Manchester United Belgian midfielder Marouane Fellaini, who currently plays for Shandong Luneng, is the only known case of Covid-19 among Super League players. The Belgian was released from the hospital last week in China and remains in quarantine.

Today's Football Matches and Other Sports

There have running many football tournament at this time. English Premier League is one of them. This English Premier League is very popular in worldwide. Man City, Arsenal, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea team are especially popular in EPL.

Spanish Primera Division is another popular tournament at this time. Real Madrid, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Malaga, Valencia, Real Sociedad etc are most favorite team in Spanish Primera Division. This football tournament is also known as La Liga.

Now, every day a different championship game is played. When we see a light in the impenetrable jungle is because there is a football field. My experience so far shows that it is true. Playing football here is another story, because physically there is no competition. The importance of the sport is reflected in the clothes. In a rural area in the middle of the jungle takes the shirt is more of a football team.

Italian Serie A is also top tournament at this time. In Serie A there have many popular team faces each other. Inter Milan, Juventus, Roma, Atalanta, Bologna, AC Milan, Napoli, Sampdoria etc is very attractive in this Italian Serie A.

French Ligue 1 is the football tournament for French people. PSG, Marseille, Lille, Sochaux, Lyon, Montpellier atc is the best team in French Ligue 1.

Champions League matches are critical events during the year. I do not know the figures for worldwide audience of the Olympics, but I think nothing generates more global expectation that a World Cup football. I've been enjoying a credit of Real Madrid for a few seasons.

Juventus vs. Tottenham Football Match in Champions League 13 February 2018

Tonight at 20.45 Juventus will play at home against Tottenham, in the first leg of the Champions League first knockout rounds. Juventus-Tottenham will be played at the Allianz Stadium in Turin at 8.45 pm and will be refereed by the German Felix Brych.

Match Schedule:
Juventus vs. Tottenham
Champions League 2018
Date: 13 February 2018; Time: 8.45 PM
Venue: Allianz Stadium (Torino)

There are no precedents in official matches between Juventus and Tottenham, who had already played a friendly match in the summer of 2017, in Wembley, won by Tottenham for 2 to 0. The return will be played on Wednesday, March 7, in London.


Juventus arrived at the game tonight in a good moment: in the last match of Serie A, they beat Fiorentina 2 to 0 away, even after a not brilliant match and in the previous one they had beaten Sassuolo 7-0 at home. Juventus, however, has a big problem with injuries. This will force the coach Massimiliano Allegri to deploy some reserves and to change the form, going from the traditional 4-2-1-3 to 4-3-3.

In the last Premier League game Tottenham beat Arsenal for 1 to 0. He is fifth in the standings with 52 points, 20 less than the Manchester City leaders. Coach Mauricio Pochettino has no significant injuries and will be able to line up the starting lineup, including striker Harry Kane, who is scoring with an impressive pace and is currently probably the best European striker.

Juventus is still favored for the passage of the round because it is on paper a more solid and organized team with much more experience in Europe. But it will be important to win tonight, possibly without conceding a goal: not an impossible thing, given that in the last 16 games only one goal has been scored. Another encouraging statistic for Juventus: has never lost in Europe in the last 26 games played at home, while Tottenham has won only once in the past fourteen games played away.
