Curtis was discharged from hospital in November 2012, wheelchair-bound and with his short-term memory so decimated that he was required to write his every move in a diary at 15-minute intervals, reminding himself, for example, that he had already showered for the day or eaten lunch. I probably filled out two diary books," he says. Despite initially being cautioned that a return to total mobility and complete brain function was improbable, and that simple tasks such as dressing himself might be beyond his capability, Curtis made a full recovery within a year.
We feel that this fixture is likely to deliver plenty of goals at both ends. Werder Bremen have struggled to find positive results in recent weeks. However, if nothing else, Die Werderaner have been one of the most entertaining sides to watch in the Bundesliga this season.
On her celebration for that goal, which involved running round aimlessly and looking a bit shocked: It was embarrassing! I don't know what I was doing. My celebrations are… yeah, not something I like to talk about!

As a Scot, that is literally something I dreamt about as a child.
Cheltenham’s fortunes have been built on their ability to find the back of the net on a frequent basis and 41 times they have managed to score this season represents the third best return in the league. Whilst they have the best defensive record in the division to go alongside that, they have only kept one clean sheet in their last seven league matches, a fact which will have to be addressed if they are to continue their good form.
These discussions are complex and as a result the process is ongoing. There was criticism when Newcastle and Tottenham became the first Premier League clubs to announce they were placing non-playing staff on furlough. Health secretary Matt Hancock said Premier League players should "take a pay cut and play their part" during the pandemic. Since then, Premier League clubs have said they will ask players to take a 30% pay cut in order to protect jobs.
The striker's first goal of the season helped Everton break their run of being winless in 35 outings when they have conceded the opening goal. The fact they found a way to win this fixture points to a steeliness that seems to have arrived since Ancelotti took charge. The Toffees have now lost just once in seven league games - against champions Manchester City - under the Italian.
United and Arsenal currently top their groups, which would mean them playing away first. There will be two Champions League last-16 first-leg ties on 18 February, with a further two the night after. No more than one English team is likely to play on each individual match night. Manchester City and Tottenham have already reached that stage. Holders Liverpool need at least a point against RB Salzburg in their final group match next week to get through, while Chelsea will also qualify if they beat Lille, although a draw may also be good enough.
Interclube and Recreativo do Libolo will face to face in this matchday on Saturday. Both teams are run a terrible shape, and follow each other in the rankings. The away team have 4 points clear advantage and they have 1 win out of their last 5 matches, while the home team running one of the longest active winless streak in the championship. Both teams have higher goal per match record than league average. I expect this Girabola fixtures will bring the most goals on Saturday events. The away team won the latest previous meeting on autumn by 1 goal difference. My tip: 2-1 or 1-2.
Etihad's Euro atmosphere can be electric Pep Guardiola has won back to back Premier League titles with Manchester CityAs their games in Europe become more important, they also get harder - and the players will need every bit of drive and encouragement they can get. I understand why they are booing, and it is a protest against the treatment they feel they and their club have had from European football's governing body Uefa, not because they don't want to win the competition.

It will help Arteta that he is strong-minded, a man with a set of principles that are non-negotiable. One player who knows him better than most is his former team-mate at Arsenal, Santi Cazorla, who was helped and mentored by Arteta when he joined Arsenal from Malaga. I spoke to Cazorla last week and he had no doubts his great friend would be more than capable of taking any top-flight managerial job and making a success of it.

Despite Monaco winning their final match of 2019 5-1, manager Leonardo Jardim was given his marching orders in favour of former Spain coach Robert Moreno.

The next game will take us to Israel. Bnei Yehuda will play against Hapoel Raanana. The host sit on the 5th place in the table right now. In contrast the visitors are sitting rock bottom of the table. The host has won two of the last 5 matches while the visitors could not win in their last 5 matches suffering 3 defeats. Their away form is too awful. They have lost all of their away matches this season. So I assume that the host will win the game today.
This will be the easiest money from all duels in this round from all matches in Belarusian Reserve league, so I will bet on goals, what is for me very real. So, Vitebsk Reserves is interesting team who is believe it, or not, played in last five matches with even four goals or more than that. In that period, this team is played 3-3, 4-0, 4-0, 4-1 and even 5-4. Of course, after this impressive series of results, it is clear that this duel will be similar. Dinamo Brest Reserves, will also score here at least one goal, probably and two.

Liverpool's 30-year wait for a top-flight title is over after Manchester City lost 2-1 at Chelsea to confirm the Reds as Premier League champions. Jurgen Klopp's side needed one victory to seal the league but City's failure to win means they cannot be caught. It is Liverpool's 19th top-flight title and their first since 1989-90. Despite being urged to "stay home" by the city's metro mayor because of coronavirus, hundreds of fans have gathered at Anfield to celebrate.
Basaksehir warmed up to this clash with a 2-1 away win against Rizespor in the Super Lig but it will be a bigger task taking on Sporting, whose 2-0 win over Boavista elevated them to four unbeaten matches. Basaksehir have just that one loss against Sporting in their last five matches but one thing they will be wary about is their defence, which has kept just one clean sheet in the last six matches.
Big test for home team, in order to see if they are able to play in good form for more than few games, and to make longer run of the winning in the competition. This game against one of the big names of the football in Argentina, could be a challenge for Mar del Plata side, but counting recent two winning matches on side, Aldosivi is going better than in the first part.
Shakhtar is dominating the league once more this season in Ukraine and is close to taking 2nd place in the Champions League as well but they have conceded lately a couple of goals, winning 4-1 with weak Lviv at home, they also drew two games in the Champions League with average Dinamo Zagreb 2-2 at home and 3-3 even away from home, also last round in the league they only managed a 1-1 draw away from home at Mariupol so there are questions marks about the quality of their defense at this moment.
Juventus coach Maurizio Sarri was surprisingly generous in his praise of Lazio, who he said were experiencing a "magical moment". If they carry on like this, there’s not much for anyone else to do," said Sarri, who coaches a team with far superior spending power to Lazio. For me, right now, physically and mentally, they are the best team in Europe.
United's scoring form at home also bodes well ahead of a match against City side that has been anything but defensively sound away from home. The hosts have notched two or more goals in seven of their last eight at Old Trafford.
Instead, they will have to fit in this replay between hosting Southampton in the league on 1 February and travelling to Norwich a fortnight later - although manager Jurgen Klopp hinted afterwards that senior players would not be involved against the Shrews. Having played 37 games this season, including two in Qatar for the Fifa Club World Cup and another in Isatanbul for the European Super Cup back in August, Liverpool could have done without an additional fixture.
He could play in the Premier League and Champions League, no question, with the form he is in. At 22 he is has it all in front of him. I just hope he keeps getting better and better with us. I don't know [if we can keep him]. We have had no enquiries for him but I am sure somewhere down the line for someone of that quality there will be. Former Celtic captain McNamara 'critical but stable' after collapseIs Edouard better than Dembele?Lennon believes Edouard, who joined the Scottish champions in 2018 following a loan spell from Paris St-Germain, is in the midst of his best season in Scotland and says despite his reserved nature away from the field, he is a popular figure at the club.
Conte has been complaining all season about his sqaud's lack of experience and strength in depth, insisting he needs more players if Inter are to end the Juventus' long-standing domination. In one angry outburst in November he said the club had made "important mistakes at the planning stage" and warned that they could not expect to win anything by signing players from Cagliari and Sassuolo - a reference to Nicolo Barella and Stefano Sensi respectively.
On TV it appears to go straight in but from the moment I connected with it, it looked to me like it was going to go wide. Then it shifted to the left a bit and I was thinking it was going to hit the post - then it came inside a bit more and suddenly I was thinking 'it's going in… it's going in!'It took a while to actually cross the line and creep into the corner but in the end it was perfect, just perfect.
Saturday ended up being a perfect night all round for Liverpool. The Reds became world champions for the first time, securing the only title the club was missing and injecting even more confidence into a squad of players getting used to winning trophy after trophy. And they then walked off the pitch in Qatar after winning the Club World Cup to find out that - more than 3,000 miles away - their closest rivals in the Premier League title race had lost.
Orlando aren't technically the home side but they will feel comfortable playing at this venue. They were in good form before the season was suspended and are close to full strength for this game. Brooklyn will be without key players and the tip here is for Orlando to get the win.
Angelholm is obviously much better than Astrio, considering that Astrio in an amateur team which has sometimes played in the Swedish Cup, while Angelholm currently plays in Division 2 and is also one of the best teams in that League. Angelholm has failed to be promoted to the upper league by just one point in the past season, so they should be really competitive in this one too: Astrio has just beaten Ullareds by 3-1, but Angelholm should be much better than them and should win this match in a quite easy way. In my opinion winning by more than a goal shouldn't be a problem for Angelholm.
City have played one fewer match than the majority of Premier League clubs but these figures do not take into account the completion of the Champions League, which has the potential of adding another four games should they reach the final - if the tournament can be concluded. Chelsea allow Kante to miss training amid coronavirus fearsHenry? Keane? Aguero? Drogba? Pick your combined title-winning XIResearch conducted by artificial intelligence platform Zone7, which specialises in injury risk forecasting and works with 35 professional football teams worldwide, shows that playing eight matches in a 30-day period increases the incidence of injury by 25% when compared with playing four to five matches in the same timeframe.
Premier League clubs to consult players on 30% wage cut as resumption delayedWhat should happen next? The BBC pundits have their sayPremier League: The youngsters who have shone in 2019-20Even when the game restarts, major issues will be hanging over it. One leading Premier League executive has privately ridiculed stories that have suggested transfers in excess of £100m may take place during what will be a transfer window, potentially of as little as three weeks, feeling it shows an ignorance of the financial issues being wrestled with.
There are concerns about players' fitness ahead of such an intensive programme and whether they will be more injury prone after their hiatus, but Norwood says he and his team-mates are in good shape. We have done all the running that we would do pre-season, albeit away from the training ground," Norwood said in an interview with BBC Radio 5 live's The Friday Football Social. We have done a test that we do first day back of pre-season, and everyone has bettered their times, so we are obviously doing something right.

That could come on the heels of UEFA criticism of Belgium not waiting to attempt to complete their campaign in the coming months as European soccer's governing body had asked its member associations to try and do. There was also the threat that Belgian clubs might not be allowed to participate in the Champions League and Europa League next season, although this has since been tempered by Belgian and UEFA officials.

With a week's break between the Middlesbrough opener and a home match with Luton Town on 27 June, it is a daunting match schedule. But with a potentially lucrative prize in sight, Cooper is not complaining: "Everybody is the same. Playing nine games in so many days by a certain date is tough, but we have to plan for it and that is what we're doing. The other option is to moan about it and we are not doing that.
Duncan Ferguson will remain as Everton caretaker manager for Sunday's Premier League game at Manchester United.

The club are continuing to weigh up their options as regards a permanent manager - with ex-boss David Moyes still figuring heavily in discussions.
