The French Football Federation (FFF) confirmed the news on its website on Thursday. Hidalgo also took France to the 1982 World Cup semi-finals, losing to West Germany on penalties, but the 1984 tournament on home soil was an emotional highlight with French playmaker Michel Platini grabbing nine goals in five matches to finish as the tournament's top scorer.

They have only won one of their last five games in all competitions and lost 3-1 to Everton on Saturday. Chelsea have eight points in this group but if finishing level with Valencia can't go above them due to head-to-head results. They have already lost at home to Valencia in this group and drew 4-4 with Ajax.
The suggestion that Liverpool's sequence of poor results is because they have run out of gas does not stack up when you look at their performance against Atletico Madrid. Yes, Atletico knocked the Reds out of the Champions League on Wednesday but I was at Anfield and that was probably the best that Jurgen Klopp's side have played in the past couple of months. This was their fourth defeat in six matches that have seen them eliminated from Europe and the FA Cup, as well as their long unbeaten Premier League run come to an end - but it is too simplistic to say the Reds have just blown up.

The support of the stadium is really important for us. When we play here we want to feel at home," he said. But Goodison evidently already feels very much at home for an Everton side which has now kept 10 clean sheets in their past 16 home league games. In fact, only Liverpool (15) have kept more home clean sheets in the Premier League since the start of last season than Everton - with Chelsea the only other side able to match the Toffees' tally of 14.

They have to keep an eye on Manchester United (fifth) and Wolves (sixth), both two points off their tail. Watford are 16th in the table and the danger of relegation is very real going into the final rounds of the campaign. They are only one point clear of the three teams directly below them, West Ham, Bournemouth, and Aston Villa.

Liks last season, they started this campaign in confident and clinical fashion, opening up a wide gap between them and their automatic promotion rivals. Things fell apart last season and a play-off defeat spoiled their season. History is threatening to repeat itself for Leeds. At the time of writing, they remain second in the table but it's only a matter of time before their poor results see them slip further down.

He didn't just put in the knife, he turned it around to damage the Malmo fans even more. The statue has to be moved'The outrage is so prevalent in the city that it has created an unwelcome dilemma for the local authority over what they should do with the statue. Restore it, and the vandalism will likely continue unless resources are invested in tightening security, a move that isn't likely to go down well among taxpayers in a one-club football-mad city.
Den Haag have won four of their last six league games against Twente, only losing once during that period, and over 2.5 goals have been scored in five of the pairs’ last six encounters so you can see why we have backed at least three goals to be scored and for Den Haag to pinch a much-needed three points.
The Cherries defended in numbers when it mattered but when their defences were breached it was Ramsdale who came to the rescue. If ever a team needed to keep a clean sheet, this was it. A massive three points for Bournemouth. Did you know? Ramsdale made five saves as Bournemouth kept their fourth clean sheet in 17 Premier League games. Defenders - Jan Vertonghen (Tottenham), Fernandinho (Manchester City), Yerry Mina (Everton) Jan Vertonghen: How inspiring of Jose Mourinho to use three central defenders and a natural full-back in a back four, allowing Serge Aurier to do what he does best and bomb forward when Spurs have possession.

Both Spurs and Southampton have struggled a bit in the past few matches but we believe Spurs will be more confident going to this clash after their win over Manchester City. One factor about this game is the plenty of goals the two sides have been scoring. With the rise Southampton have had lately, disregarding the 4-0 loss to Liverpool, we expect them to push Spurs but with the hosts holding home advantage and straight from a crucial win, we expect the home side to win this. We believe we will see quite some goals here, judging by the returns in attack these sides have had. We will thus go for over 2.5 goals.
The away team have been one of the best this season and they also seem to find a way to score more than once when they visit this ground. In recent years they have been able to score a few good goals here and normally at least 2 goals has been normal for them to score. The home team have also been able to score a few goals too, when playing at home against a good team there is a greater chance of the home team being able to get at least one goal compared to if they were playing at Bayern it would be harder.
Dordrecht and Excelsior will face each other in the upcoming match in the Eerste Divisie in Holland. Dordrecht this season have the following results: 2W, 5D and 13L. Meanwhile Excelsior have 10W, 4D and 6L. This season both these teams are usually playing attacking football in the league and their matches are often high scoring.
The hosts of this clash play well at home in the regular season and they won against most of the opponents. Usually, they keep the clean sheet so in this clash there is a chance to see a clear victory of Krumkachy over Oshmyany. The hosts are the better team and with the home advantage, they should win even with more than one goal difference. The visitors play well at home but on away they struggle so hard and concede at least two goals in the last matches. I think that they will not keep a clean sheet for a long time. A clear win for the hosts
Haaland scored twice in eight minutes to lead his team to a 2-1 victory over Paris St Germain in their Champions League Round of 16 first leg on Tuesday. The Norwegian, 19, who joined in the winter and has already netted eight times in five Bundesliga matches, stabbed in from close range after a quick-fire passing move in the 69th minute.
Bundesliga teams showed their support for the Black Lives Matter movement with a range of protests on Saturday. Borussia Dortmund and Hertha Berlin players took a knee together around the centre circle before their meeting at Signal Iduna Park. Dortmund players warmed up in T-shirts with messages including "no peace, no justice" and "united together". Bayern Munich players wore T-shirts which said "red against racism" before their 4-2 win at Bayer Leverkusen.
Okay - that might be a bit harsh on the England international, but the City centre-half has really failed to improve his game since his £50 million move to Manchester back in 2016. It's unlikely that Arsenal will spend £50 million on a centre-back this summer, especially with William Saliba finally joining from Saint-Etienne and Pablo Mari likely to make his loan move permanent.
Nevertheless, last season's Segunda champions have lost just twice on their travels after grinding out four draws and we're anticipating a similar outcome this weekend despite their 1-2 defeat at home to Athletic Bilbao last weekend, which brought an end to their unbeaten start to the campaign at El Sadar.
RATING: B - - - - - BOURNEMOUTH Eddie Howe is a good (maybe even great) coach, but he's terrible at transfer windows. When you think during his tenure Jordon Ibe and Dominic Solanke have joined the club while Tyrone Mings and Lys Mousset have departed, nothing there suggests business-savvy. Bournemouth did not sign anyone in January despite looking in perilous danger of relegation and Asmir Begovic probably feels he's been given a lucky escape.
I’m looking forward to making the most of the top-class facilities and coaching and I am certain I will benefit immensely from the standard of training and competition. Rangers announced a two-year partnership with Indian side Bengalaru FC last September. Bala is a playmaker who likes to play as a number 10 and we believe she will contribute goals and assists to the team," said Rangers women's team manager Amy McDonald.
So credit to both clubs," said Rashford. The forward had begun judging a poetry competition for children with hearing impairments prior to the outbreak and Rashford said he promises to deliver the awards in person when the government restrictions are lifted. As soon as this is finished I will go to the school, see the kids and give them the awards from the competition," he said. I read a lot of books on mentality because in my profession that is one of the key points.

Hans-Jorg Butt - The majority of the Germany international's 32 goals came in the early part of his career with Hamburg and Bayer Leverkusen. His three in the Champions League remain a record for a goalkeeper in the competition. Peter Schmeichel - The top-scoring former Premier League player in the goalkeepers' roll of honour, Schmeichel scored 13 goals in England and his native Denmark. Raimond van der Gouw - If timing is everything in football then the Netherlands' former Manchester United stopper couldn't really be bettered.
Daniel Levy. Mauricio PochettinoGetty Images Paper Round’s view: Such a figure is not prohibitive to any of Pochettino, Arsenal or United, but there is always scope for further negotiation, because if the choice is £12. Levy and Spurs would probably be persuaded to reduce their demands a little. Ed Woodward, meanwhile, is known to prefer players and managers with easily resolved contracts, so this may encourage him in any approach.
The first 2 games of the season for the hosts were really not that high scoring as they first won with 2-0 away from home at the champions from Klaksvik and than won their second game with 3-0 at home against Argir but their weak opponents had some big chances to score even back then, while next 5 games have been really high scoring on their side losing twice with 4-2 first time at home with city rivals from HB Torshavn a very good game, and second losing 4-2 at Vikingur.
