Josh Murphy scored both goals in Oxford Utd's promotion-winning League One play-off final 2:0 win over Bolton today. We will be welcoming Josh back to Carrow Road with the Us next season
Not a bad FA Cup final, I didn't expect Man City to be that poor, though. I guess maybe Man U supporters will be stuck with Erik Hag for another season, now?
Maybe history will repeat itself. Ferguson was on the point of being sacked in 1990 when Man U faced Notts Forest in the 3rd Round of the FA Cup. Mark Robins scored the goal that won the game for United, and the rest is -- well -- history.
It'll be close. If Leeds play like they did against us then I fancy them. The saints have also been up and down of late.
For finishing 3rd with 90 points? No club in their right mind would sack a manager who got them into the playoffs - oh wait a minute...
Watched England beat Spain 3:1 in the U17s tournament tonight. Three excellent finishes for the England goals, but a rather depressing descent into ill-temper, sledging and s***housery all too familiar from the behaviour of their elders.
In the Bundesliga/2 Bundesliga relegation/promotion battle 2nd leg between Bochum and Fortuna Dusseldorf, third from bottom Bundesliga club Bochum reversed the 1st leg scoreline to tie the contest at 3:3 after FT. They went on to win the penalty shootout 6:5 to preserve their top tier status. So no fairy tale ending to Tzolis's season on loan at Fortuna: "Despite [Fortuna] carrying a threat on the counter, it was not sustained, and star player Christos Tzolis found himself out of the game owing to a superb Tim Oermann performance".
HT score in the opening game of EURO 24 in Munich: Germany 3:0 Scotland. Scotland down to 10 men after Porteous was red carded after giving away a penalty. First goal came from a shot from outside the box, which Gunn got a hand to but could only turn onto the post and in. Scots haven't yet managed a shot on target. Tony Kroos running the game for the hosts; Arsenal's Havertz scored Germany's third goal, from the penalty spot.
