The half looked destined to end without a goal, until Defoe latched on to a knock-on from Arfield. The striker controlled the ball and, with a crowd of County defenders around him, spun and fired the ball through a sea of bodies. Some might have expected to see Morelos introduced after a drab first half, but the Colombian began the second half on the bench and in his place Defoe continued to trouble the County defence.
His spell with Borussia Dortmund had transformed him, injected him with the confidence of a truly elite player. I had that fearless thing of knowing I had done it at the highest level, so if you're going to beat me you're going to have to match me or be better than me. That's what Borussia Dortmund did for me, catapulted me to that level. I could then handle playing in big games in front of big crowds.

HAALAND DEAL FAILURE IS A BLOW FOR UNITED It was no secret that Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was very keen to bring in highly-rated 19-year-old Norwegian compatriot Erling Haaland in the January window. Instead the striker moved from Salzburg to Borussia Dortmund with media reports suggesting United had been unable to structure the deal with Haaland's agent Mino Raiola.
Pogon is one of the teams, that would fight for the title in the season, and there is no any reason for them to be named as outsider here in the match. Gornik was one of the biggest names of Football in Poland, but recently they always are fighting relegation, and are not among the top half in the league.
Admittedly, the Dons’ form has improved recently with two wins from their last four, but prior to that they were in the midst of a torrid 12 game winless streak which saw them collect just two points from a possible 36.

It is important that everyone has the feeling that we can turn this around to better results. Some are not convinced Everton can turn the situation round. On Monday, former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher said he could see a situation where Everton were still on their current tally of 14 points on New Year's Day - losing their next seven Premier League games. I don't have the capacity to look five, six or seven matches into the future," said Silva.
Newcastle United and the Premier League must put moral values ahead of financial gains, says the fiancee of murdered journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund looks set to finance 80% of a £300m takeover of the club. Khashoggi was killed in 2018 with Western intelligence agencies believing that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered the murder - which he denies. Moral values should prevail," Hatice Cengiz told BBC 5 Live.
Paper Round's view: 12-month extensions for over-30s is quite a common at clubs in football these days. However, last season Chelsea broke the norm and gave fellow Brazilian David Luiz a two-year deal, despite the fact he ended up leaving for Arsenal in the summer. Willian has been a great servant to the Blues and he is thriving under Lampard, so it would make sense for the Chelsea chiefs to accept his demands, instead of risking losing him for nothing when his deal expires in June.
Jimenez, with seven goals in the past nine Wolves games, also produced a bright display. His excellent surge and cross from the right would have resulted in Wolves' second had Jonny kept his composure with keeper David Martin to beat. The former Benfica player also should have done better with his strike, from Traore's through-ball, which was beaten away by the Hammers keeper.
They are in 15th place, one point above the relegation zone, and have potentially crucial fixtures against Burnley and Brighton coming up this month too, with one against Arsenal sandwiched in between.

Both of these two teams have struggled immensely at the back this season. Hertha have conceded 21 goals in their 11 Bundesliga games. Meanwhile, Augsburg have been even worse defensively, conceding 24 goals in the same amount of games.

Wolves is still in the Europa League latter stage of the competition and is fighting for the top places in the league as well especially after managing to win a few days ago away at struggling West Ham side scoring twice in the second half and really not being troubled that much in defense they won with 2-0 that encounter. This while their opponents today are seriously troubled by the relegation prospect for the first time since they promoted to the first league.

Liverpool is in bad form, according to their recent results. However their only bad performance was against Watford. Against Atletico Madrid they lost only 1:0, which is not a big deal considering they play the 2nd let at Anfield. Yesterday they lost against Chelsea in the FA Cup, however many players from the 1st squad did not played. I think Liverpool is capable of winning this match by 2 goals difference, despite their poor form. Bournemouth is not very good team, especially when they play away from home. As I said, my bet is Liverpool ah -1.5 at maximum stake.

Tonight, in the Ligat HA 'AL, an interesting game will be played between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Beer Sheva. At the moment, in the standings, Maccabi Tel Aviv sit at top and collected total number of 71 points. But Beer Sheva sit 4th and collected a total number of 47 points. In this match I think Hapoel Beer sheva will get something. The host did not win in their last game. A draw expected here for me. The home team was to win or draw in the worst case. With exact scores there could be 1-0 or 1-1 or 0-0. Maccabi Tel Aviv are 11 points ahead of the second team. Therefore, I think Hapoel beer sheva will get something.
