Dynamo confidently wins Mariupol at the exit
Dynamo confidently wins Mariupol at the exit The team of Alexander Khatskevich this time scored twice. Within the framework of the four rounds, the white-and-blue ones on the exit won "Mariupol" - 2: 0. Although the hosts started the match better! "Dynamo" made several mistakes in his own half, for which he almost paid a missed goal. Fortunately, it was very timely to catch the rival of his own - a stable link Tsyhankov-Verbich already worked. Victor sent from the corner, and Benjamin scored his head. After a missed goal, the players of "Mariupol" did not even think of getting on the defensive, but tried to play as quickly as possible. Fomin, Zubkov and Fedorchuk had chances to score, but the next goal managed to score Dynamo again. After a certain chaos in the penalty mariupoltsy (which included a stroke in the counter from Butalsky), Yavorsky put his hand under Harmash's finishing - the referee put a penalty. Viktor Tsigankov did not raise the t...

Shakhtar forward Olarenwaju Kayode: We think about Desna
Shakhtar forward Olarenwaju Kayode: We think about Desna Shakhtar forward Olarenwaju Kayode answered the questions from reporters ahead of the match vs Desna - Larry, this coming Tuesday, Shakhtar will meet with Manchester City, with you having spent some time with the Citizens. Do you keep in touch with your former teammates or coaches of the English team? - First of all, we should think about our Premier League game on Friday against Desna. These days, it’s the most important point. And after the game, we could well talk about Man. City. - You’ve done some exercises with Moraes, you both seemed to be quite friendly. Don’t you envy Junior due to the fact that he appears in the line-up more frequently than you do? - There can’t be any envy, because Moraes proves himself and deserves this place.

Tottenham cannot play like we normally play without striker Harry Kane
Harry Kane: Tottenham 'cannot play like we normally play' without striker - Jose Mourinho No player can take the injured Harry Kane's place and Tottenham "cannot play like we normally play" without him, says manager Jose Mourinho. The striker has been ruled out until April with a hamstring injury that will require surgery. England captain Kane has scored 27 goals in 31 appearances for club and country this season. "If I speak too much about Harry, I get a bit depressed and then you are going to say he is miserable," Mourinho said. "It's better to talk about things that make me laugh." Tottenham host Premier League leaders Liverpool on Saturday at 17:30 GMT. Kane suffered the injury during Tottenham's defeat at Southampton on New Year's Day and will not return to training until April. "You know that we cannot play like we normally play when Harry Kane is in the team," Mourinho said. "We cannot do it the same ...

Fran Kirby on her Chelsea FC Women absence
Fran Kirby on her Chelsea FC Women absence Fran Kirby has spoken for the first time about the medical condition which has kept her out of the Chelsea Women team since November. The 26-year-old made the last of her four appearances for Chelsea this season as a substitute in November's 1-0 win over Manchester United after missing the start of the campaign because of injury. Following that game Kirby was diagnosed with pericarditis, a condition which is uncommon in athletes and refers to inflammation of the pericardium (the fluid-filled sac that surrounds your heart). Normally it is caused by a viral infection and manifests with symptoms typically including sudden onset of sharp chest pain, fever, nausea, shortness of breath and weakness. Those who contract pericarditis can recover quickly but for others – including our England international – it can take months with Kirby revealing she was sleeping 15 hours a day during the early stages of the illness and taking anti-inflammator...

Emery on how we can improve our clean-sheet record
Emery on how we can improve our clean-sheet record Unai Emery is pleased with the progress his side have made since his arrival this summer, despite waiting for a first clean sheet. We have sharpened up defensively in recent weeks, only to concede late consolation goals against Newcastle and Vorskla, but our head coach remains optimistic that we are heading in the right direction. This is what he told the media ahead of Sunday’s game against Everton: on how much progress the team have made since he arrived… I think, little by little. We’ve won two matches away and that’s small progress but very important for continuing to improve our confidence. I think we are finding the balance. We need to continue working to get better in each match, individually and collectively. I am very excited to show every supporter our ideas, the exciting matches in each match, like at Emirates Stadium on Sunday. Away, [I want us] to be competitive, like in our last two matches against Newcastle and Car...
