🚨 Tottenham 1-4 Chelsea: If you missed this, all we can say is sorry.
Nicolas Jackon's strike had the final say for Chelsea in one of the most chaotic derbies of the modern Premier League era.
Five disallowed goals, two red cards and a penalty summed up the night.
Meanwhile , Steven Gerrard would be hoping Philippe Coutinho would remember his first stint in the premier league and his performances and amazing goals against Southampton.

the mind behind the movement, was just one of the many highlights on this very interesting documentary on how the Happy Corner was formed.
Victor Osimhen becomes the first player in the Serie A 🇮🇹 to hit 10 goals.
Who else thinks it should be more if he wasn’t so generous with the penalty duty ?
While it is less than 50 days to the Qatar 2022 world cup, let's that a short trip down memory lane to France '98. We'll be bringing back memories, a few you remember fondly, and some not so much.

star joins the TSL team to discuss life so far in the NPFL. He speaks on why he ran to new head coach Biffo after coming on as a sub and scoring with his first touch against Abia Warriors.
Full video:
He scored against Bayer Leverkusen(RO16), Juventus (QF)and Chelsea (SF) on his team’s way to the UEFA Champions League trophy in 2004/05.
The streets will never forget.
Back to one of our favorite segments , Netherlands & Argentina set up a tantalizing tie as Denzel from Holland and not Washington had 2 assists and 1 goal while Lionel Messi scored his first knock out goal in his 1000th game. How poetic could that be? Here’s what the lads think
Believed to be getting too old, AC Milan decided not to extend Andrea Pirlo's contract that year. He was 32.
Pirlo afterwards accepted a free transfer to Juventus, where he won the Serie A Player of the Year award three times in a row. A mark that has yet to be surpassed.
Here is how midfielders in the top leagues in Europe fair in terms of progressive actions vs Defensive actions.
Progressive actions: Completed passes into the 18- yard box Not including set pieces.
Defensive actions: Tackles + Interceptions.

The streets will never forget.
He is widely regarded as one of the greatest Malian footballers of all time, and he is known for his excellent defensive skills.
In 2006, he signed with Real Madrid, where he played for four seasons and won two La Liga titles.
Remember him?

Cerebrone is the jewel of Footy Twitter. It’s okay if you don’t agree with all he says but most of the times he’s right. Insane past & present knowledge of the game and it’s no surprise who he picks ,if Ligue 1 products were Mary Jane , He is Peter Parker. Thank you

• Chelsea travel to turf moor to face red hot burnley
• fight to escape relegation continues as newcastle will take on brighton at home
• Liverpool vs westham
And the big one for the weekend Manchester derby
Still on the talk about Americans , Christian Pulisic became the first to score a hattrick in 2019 since Clint Dempsey did so in 2012 . He managed to score his first goals and a perfect hat-trick as well against today’s opposition.
How key would he be today ?
