Was football big in your family?"Yeah. It's just a football family - my dad always used to play, my granddad always used to play. My brother right now is still playing professional football. When I come home now my mum is still always talking about football so she's probably the biggest fan. My mum was really getting annoyed because when I was two or three I started kicking against everything in the house and she was just, like, yeah, get her a ball so she can just play outside.

I'm sure I'll never change. We don't have the players that other teams have got but we have boys who want to track back, put a tackle in and stop a cross. You're in a bubble and you're just working for the next game. I'm still making the same journey to the training ground, seeing the same boys and going home to watch the TV. Nothing really changes. I'm still at the local boozer on a Saturday afternoon if we've not got a game to go to.
What were City accused of?Uefa launched an investigation after German newspaper Der Spiegel published leaked documents in November 2018 alleging City had inflated the value of a sponsorship deal, misleading European football's governing body. Reports alleged City - who have always denied wrongdoing - deliberately misled Uefa so they could meet FFP rules requiring clubs to break even. On 14 February, the independent adjudicatory chamber of the CFCB said City had broken the rules by "overstating its sponsorship revenue in its accounts and in the break-even information submitted to Uefa between 2012 and 2016".

Both teams can count on experienced and talented players who have scored many goals in Serie A, like Belotti for Torino and Zapata and Gomez for Atalanta: Atalanta comes from 8 Over games in the last 9 official matches and is conceding too many goals in the last ones, considering that they have even lost at home vs Spal; Torino is very good at home and could score at least twice, considering that they have beaten Atalanta by 2-0 in the last clash here. Both teams should have no problem to score today, so an Over seems to be really likely.

NK Lokomotiva Zagreb against HNK Gorica here, meeting of the 1 Croatian HNL of soccer that is played tomorrow afternoon at 7:00 pm.

He has settled in great. History tells you that bringing in new signings from different leagues in January it is hard to know how they are going to settle," said United coach Michael Carrick. Is it going to be straight away or are they going to need some time? Certainly Bruno has fitted in great on the pitch and is as important around the pitch in the dressing room. He has got a real presence about him and the lads have taken to him well.
The away team have had 4 matches in their last 5 where there was only 1 goal scored in the match or less. They have actually found it hard to score in most matches but have defended well at times too. They play a good team in this match and will believe they will be unable to score enough goals to win the match they will probably look to defend this match out for as long as they can. It will be a game where there will not be many chances to score and might see under 2 goals in this
