Welcome to the Monday show of weekend around the clock. Hope we all had an awesome weekend????? I did have a nice one too. Well, this is a post that announces the winners of our episode 1 contest but before that, lets take a look at some thrilling moments during the games.
Bayern München vs Dortmund
After sacking their coach, München were bitter that they trashed anything they stumbled upon. Dortmund were unfortunate to be a victim of the harsh weather. Visiting the Allianz arena in piece, they were sent home with a 4-0 bag package. Though the host were having a bad season start, they surge to third in the table after the victory why the visitors drops down to fifth after the abject performance. At the start of the decade Bayern-Dortmund was one of the most compelling rivalries in world football. Now, at least when the game takes place in Bavaria, a procession feels somewhat inevitable – as the past five Bundesliga editions show.
November 9, 2019: Bayern Munich 4-0 Borussia Dortmund.
April 6, 2019: Bayern Munich 5-0 Borussia Dortmund.
March 31, 2018: Bayern Munich 6-0 Borussia Dortmund.
April 4, 2017: Bayern Munich 4-1 Borussia Dortmund.
October 4, 2015: Bayern Munich 5-1 Borussia Dortmund.
Dortmund last won in Munich in April 2014, with the caveat that their rivals had already been crowned Bundesliga champions before succumbing to a 3-0 loss.
Leicester city vs Arsenal
Pressures are piling on Unai Emery as the days go. Though he made the statement of having the boards backings, the fans are not ready to have such long term patience with the coach as they cry out for him to be sacked. The foxes 2-0 win makes it a third consecutive win over the North Londoners for the first time in their history. Thanks to Vardy and Maddison's second half goal that secured the victory. Sitting second on the table with 26 points, they are another contenders for the title as they are now among the top teams in EPL.
Liverpool vs Manchester city
The long awaited gladiatorial match between the Contenders vs the Defenders have been seen by the world. It was not the expected result but i predicted Liverpool to win. Many would have wanted to see series of goals but the Merseyside reds looks like they dominated the game until the late minutes when City began to apply pressures. Fabinho with a fabulous strike that sends Liverpool to an early lead while Mo Salah's sensational header doubled the lead for Klopp. Pep fuming with anger couldn't do much than to stand at the touchline with his directives. Sadio Mane's superb header gave the Reds a comfortable 3-0 lead. However, Silva was able to reduce the deficit by one goal but it didn't change much as they went back with the loss. During the match. there were two incidents of handball against the home team but the referee and VAR rejected the appeal for a review from the visitors. This many called home advantage while some says VAR still needs more work on in England.
VAR is work in progress, says Premier League VAR chief Neil Swarbrick. Premier League fans may have to wait years to see VAR implemented at the same level as in cricket and rugby union.
I also bring to you a highlight of what looks funny to me after the game. Vincent Kompany: “There have been numerous times where Liverpool were top of the league and there were numerous times where City were behind us as well. But City was the best team.” Mourinho interrupted: “When I gave you the title you didn't even call me to say thank you.
Marseille vs Lyon
D.Payet's brace sends off Marseille to a 2-1 victory over Lyon. With the two goals in the first half, M.Dembele finds one back for the visitors. With the win, the home side extends their win to four in twenty one games.
Juventus vs Milan
Dybala's late strike claims victory for the Old White Ladies in a hard fourth game with their Visitors. The match was filled with both on and off field drama as Cristiano Ronaldo exit the stadium displeased after been substituted out for the goalscorer. However. Maurizio Sarri made a terrific decision that earned his side three points.
