Paris St Germain's Marquinhos alone accounted for 53. CO2 emissions, while Ballon d'Or hopefuls Lionel Messi of Barcelona and Virgil Van Dijk of Liverpool were responsible for 20. Forty tonnes of CO2 emissions is the equivalent of burning approximately 44,000 pounds of coal, the study said.

He added: "If you look at the Championship, and you asked teams in the play-offs - a team like Fulham - they wouldn't be happy [with the season ending as it is]. There are only six points between them and West Brom and getting automatic promotion. I think that will open up too many problems within football to end the season like that. I just don't see that going ahead because it's not fair in so many ways.

Burnley's form is the polar opposite, and has put them in the picture for European qualification. I am not expecting a thriller - this will be a tight battle much like it was when they met at Turf Moor in December and the Clarets edged it. This time, I am going to go for a draw. That would not solve Newcastle's problems, but it would inch them a bit closer to safety. As for the Clarets and a possible return to Europe, I would question whether they would want to be back in the Europa League.
The hosts have had a season of two halves, despite us only approaching December. They had started the campaign with a disappointing losing streak, but they come into this clash with just one defeat across their last eight. The arrival of the Cowleys from Lincoln has brought positivity back to the club.
But Benzema was on hand to restore parity for Los Blancos at the death, and the draw keeps Valencia 8th in the table and three points behind the top four going into the final round of fixtures before the Christmas break.

Hermannstadt is a favorite in this match. Even if the form is currently anything but good, it is also because they had to go away three times in a row. They lost none of the last five direct meetings, four of which were even won.
Guabira and Sport Boys will face each other in the upcoming match in the Clausura in Bolivia. Guabira this season have the following results: 4W, 4D and 12L. Meanwhile Sport Boys have 4W, 6D and 10L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
They need a leader in that department, with a definitive plan. Arsenal's former co-owner and vice-chairman David Dein, who left in 2007, must look at them and think 'what the heck has happened?'Lawro's prediction: 2-0Big Zuu's prediction: Arsenal have been a bit topsy-turvy but they have got a couple of wins now which means Hector Bellerin can finally plant some trees - he said he would plant 3,000 trees every time they won, then they lost their next two games.
Neither team approach this match in glittering form but we're backing Lyon to get the three points in this one. Nice have been awful away from home while the hosts have been considerably better in front of their own fans since the arrival of García. We see both teams scoring in this match though as that market has won in four of Lyon's last five games and in three of Nice's last five. Nice have also scored five goals in their last three games so we can see the visitors getting on the scoresheet in this one. Ultimately though we're backing it to end 2-1 to the home side.
Brighton brought on experienced striker Glenn Murray but despite some decent chances for the 36-year-old, the visitors could not find the net and Everton hung on for the win. We tried, we put a lot into the game, the effort was there and we hit the bar but we didn't do enough to get that goal," Brighton boss Graham Potter told the BBC.
Once the action resumed, Gento, a scorer in Real's European Cup final victories in 1957 and 1958, flicked the cigarette to the floor and took off like a missile, seizing on a pass, dribbling inside and lashing a shot into the top corner before returning for another puff. Roxburgh, a youth player at Queen's Park, was mesmerised and, 24 hours later, the rest of the football-loving world would be in similar, trance-like state as Real won a fifth straight European Cup by beating Eintracht Frankfurt 7-3 in one of the most storied games the sport has ever known and in front of a record crowd of 127,621.
He said 'you’re going to get a pay cut to go to United'. I said I don’t care. Make this deal happen. I want to go to United. I don’t care how much is the pay cut, I know that, make it happen. After the deal was completed, Ighalo, who is a boyhood United fan and the first Nigerian to play for the club, said: “I called my mum and she was happy, crying and all that.

Two attacking minded teams despite sitting in the lower part of the league table they can be both quite good at scoring goals and it came as no surprise that when they met at Mainz in the first part of this season the game ended up with 4 goals being scored and both teams scoring coming true of course as Mainz won that game with 3-1 in the end, this while Mainz is not just defensive minded on the road for example they even defeated Hoffenheim 5-1 on the road before the winter break scoring 4 goals in the second half while playing in just 10 men.
Improving Saints stun Chelsea with 2-0 win at Stamford Bridge READ: Obafemi and Redmond strike to earn Southampton shock win Goals from Michael Obafemi and Nathan Redmond earned Southampton a surprise 2-0 win at Chelsea in the Premier League on Thursday. Obafemi broke the deadlock with his first goal of the season, bursting inside from the right and curling into the top corner after a tight opening half hour.
With just five goals in their last five games they're unlikely to repeat that, while the Partenopei have drawn two and lost one of their last three trips to face AC Milan. Given the scale of the problems for the visitors, we are backing Milan on the double chance market. However, we don’t expect the hosts to entirely turn around their fortunes. The hosts have scored fewer than two goals in 10 of their 12 matches this season, so we are backing a 1-1 draw after seeing Napoli draw four of their last five matches.

But performances on the pitch have left the Argentine unhappy and the trust in Setien has been diminishing quickly from a big percentage of the squad. It all came to the fore after Saturday's 2-2 draw at Celta Vigo, which made the target of winning the league even harder. Big words were exchanged between Setien and some of the biggest names in the team. The manager, disappointed because he couldn't do many of the things he hoped to do when he first arrived, took a gamble.
This fixture features no. 16 vs no. 13 in the league, Hannover 96 vs Darmstadt 98. The hosts coming from a 4 - 0 loss to FC Heidenheim (No. 6 in the league) and their last home game a 1 - 1 draw with Sandhausen. The visitors coming from a 2 - 2 draw with Jahn Regensburg ( no. 8 in the league) and their last away game a 3 - 1 loss to Greuther fuerth. The hosts coming from a loss to a higher table team but drew their last home game to a team above the visitors facing a team coming from a draw to a higher table team and lost their last away game to a team above the hosts leads to an over 2.5 bet tip here.
But Seaman went the right way and the ball was the perfect height for him. It was shown on TV the other night and Gary rang me afterwards. He said "I'm really sorry, if I scored that penalty we would have won". Now you're telling me!" I said. A Gazza goal 'beyond belief' From the resulting corner, Scotland conceded a free-kick inside the England area and Seaman launches it into the Scotland half. As Sheringham controls and feeds Anderton on the left, Gascoigne is already sprinting past them.
In this clash, Shakhtyor will face Slutsk and it will be a really interesting match on Friday in Belarus. The hosts were one of the strongest teams in the previous season but in this one, they struggle and fail to win against teams which are much weaker than they are. Slutsk lost only against Dinamo Brest in this season and it was 0:1. After that, they won 2:3 on away and draw 1:1 with Vitebsk. Shakhtyor lost against Zhodino and scored only two goals in four games. My bet here is an Asian handicap for Slutsk. They should not lose this match by more than 1 goal
It's also worth saying that this isn't the first time we've heard of something like this. Back in 2015, a certain, Mancunian, young Ronaldo (named after the Brazilian legend) signed for Oldham Athletic youth team. And Leeds United fans may be familiar with Romario and Ronaldo Vieira - two West African brothers with names of Brazilian legends who have played for the Yorkshire club. There's also a young lad called Rodrigo Riquelme, playing at the moment for Atletico Madrid B-team.
Money talks, however, so it’s time to see how deep those pockets are at the Emirates. All over for Ancelotti Napoli are seventh in Serie A and without a win in nine matches, but even so it's striking to see a manager of Carlo Ancelotti's character being let go. In their statement Napoli said: "The relationship of friendliness, esteem and mutual respect between the club and its president Aurelio De Laurentiis and Carlo Ancelotti remains intact.

Marin was serving a four-year sentence that was scheduled to end in December. Chen's statement cited the 87-year old Marin's "advanced age, significantly deteriorating health, elevated risk of dire health consequences due to the current COVID-19 outbreak, status as a non-violent offender, and service of 80% of his original sentence," as the reasons for his early release.
Rotherham have a good defensive record at home, but they too have conceded their fair share of goals of late, so plumping for them to keep a clean sheet doesn't appeal. Fortunately for them, they've got lots to offer going forward. Crucially, more than Saturday's visitors.
Nuno Espirito SantoGetty Images Nuno has won praise for his team’s well-organised nature and ruthless counter-attacking style but part of the reason he was hired in the first place was his connection to Jorge Mendes, the agent who has a close relationship with Wolves’ Chinese owners. MAURICIO POCHETTINO Age – 47 Current club – Unattached Next Arsenal manager odds - 5/1 Oh boy this would be carnage.
The home opened the scoring through Zinedine Ferhat before Benedetto struck twice before the interval and once after to put OM on 55 points from 27 games with Lucas Deaux reducing the arrears in stoppage tie. They trail leaders Paris St Germain by 10 points but lead third-placed Rennes, who travel to bottom side Toulouse on Saturday, by 11.
Villarreal were moving smoothly into contention to challenge for the European qualification spots towards the end of October, but a run of one draw and two defeats from their last three games has seen El Submarino Amarillo drop back down to 11th. Javier Calleja's men desperately need a win this weekend to get back on track and we fancy them to deliver the goods against a Celestes side who are without a win in 18 away La Liga matches.
The numbers could be regarded as outliers because a portion of the matches were available on Sky's free TV and not only on their subscription channels. But the restart has paid off for the company, which continues to adjust the broadcasts, experimenting with artificial crowd noises to combat the silence. Everyone from the club officials to the television directors knows that the current situation can only be temporary because crowds are one of the Bundesliga's biggest assets.
Orsha played two nil draws in a row including a 0-0 draw at home with Smorgon but that is a decent defensive side, this while on opening round they looked quite strong for my liking coming from 2-1 behind in the second half to win 3-2 at home against a rather decent Lida side their only win so far while in round 2 they lost 2-1 away from home at an average at best FC Slonim side, but in this game their opponent is 2nd from bottom Mikashevichi side which lost all 4 games played by them so far this season.
Spirited Brighton give leaders a scareBrighton slipped to 15th in the table after a third straight defeat, but there are grounds for optimism before a busy December programme after a spirited second-half performance. In a week which saw Seagulls boss Graham Potter extend his contract to 2025, his side gave the leaders a real scare even before the hosts were reduced to 10 men. Dunk went close from a Pascal Gross corner before popping up with his second goal in as many games, while teenage forward Aaron Connolly also showed flashes of real promise.
Champions Liverpool ended their campaign in style by coming from behind to beat Newcastle 3-1, while runners-up Manchester City thrashed bottom side Norwich 5-0. Manchester United beat Leicester 2-0 to clinch a Champions League place and deny the Foxes a spot in Europe's elite club competition next season, with Chelsea finishing fourth after a 2-0 win over Wolves. At the bottom, Bournemouth's five-year top-flight stay ended despite a 3-1 victory at Everton, with Watford also going down after a 3-2 loss at Arsenal, but Aston Villa's priceless point at West Ham keeps them up.
Did you know? Tomkins has made more clearances than any other Crystal Palace player in the Premier League this term (73). Holgate: The Everton youngster is looking like the real deal these days. The defender was part of a superb defensive display against Burnley and was inspirational away at Newcastle. This young man can play anywhere across the back four and did so brilliantly twice in a matter of 48 hours.
You look at the performance during the week in Europe, they were magnificent to a man. And there has to be serious question marks about the players now about their mentality. How they can go from that level of performance to [Saturday], being put out - their only remaining realistic opportunity of getting silverware this season. So there's major question marks about the players. When things aren't going well for them on the pitch they lack leadership and they lack people that can go and drag a result out of something.
The worst team in the German Bundesliga will be hosting attacking minded Bayer Leverkusen who are coming to this game after the lost Champions League game against Juventus at home in Leverkusen 0-2, they are 4 games in the league unbeaten, the will be hoping to keep it up where they stopped .
I just felt there was such a dearth of central defenders in the clubs outside of those very successful ones, who always have attackers you'd rather plump for, that Van Dijk seemed like an easy way to fill that gap. Getting someone between the sticks was tough too as outside of the European places, the best ones don't last too long at those sorts of clubs, but Jack Butland was pretty consistently England's second or third best with the gloves, all while playing for Stoke.
Will Saudis' takeover pass Premier League test?Newcastle preparing for 'more injuries' as players return to trainingThat process began more than seven weeks ago. Addressed to managing director Lee Charnley, the letter states: "We understand the club finds itself in a complex situation in light of the prospective sale of the club by the incumbent owner. That does not give you a legitimate right to a dereliction of duty to your supporters.
The hosts played for many seasons in the 2nd league level where they used to be a decent middle of the league table club before two relegations in a row made them sit in the 4th league level from where they tried and came really close to get promoted last season but finished just 3rd in the end only one point behind the 2nd placed club and just 2 points behind the 1st placed club. Overall they are very good for the 4th league level and won with ease most of the games played by them at home.
Wurzburg kickers are right now on 8th position on the table but still they are just 3 points away from the promotion spot which makes them a contender and today they are huge huge favorites for the win cause they are playing versus worst team in the league and also Jena already relegated so they don't have a lot of motivation to play and on the other side kickers is pretty solid at home so I surely expect win for hosts and also I think they are not going to do it with just 1 goal difference so I recommend this et
