Sticking to his original plan, he initially decided to keep his diagnosis private. Alex was touring in Plymouth so I packed a bag, picked up the dog and jumped in the car," he said. She called me on the journey to say she hadn't heard from me much, and I just said I was fine because I didn't want to ruin her weekend. The first person I told was one of my best friends. It was a very emotional phone call - I don't think I've ever cried to my friends before.
Former Brazil forward Ronaldinho will not be charged for using a fake passport to enter Paraguay, says the lead official in the case.

Puskas had let himself go somewhat. I can't play, I'm too fat," he told his Real suitor, Santiago Bernabeu. Real signed him anyway. His four goals in the final were like salt rubbed into a wound in more ways than one. Six years before, after his Hungary team had lost the World Cup final to West Germany, he had accused his opponents of doping. Even though he later retracted the comments, he wasn't forgiven.
That hasn't been the case in all the games, we have been in them or close. I thought in the second half we at least got the ball forward more. It was good to get Michail Antonio back because he has been good for us. We didn't have enough players who could make something happen in the final third. We are missing that type of player.
It was a window into his approach. Meticulous. No detail too small. Houllier remains underrated and under-appreciated by many, but his legacy can be gauged in the way he shaped the professionalism and approach of Jamie Carragher and Steven Gerrard, to name but two. He revamped the dressing room, not just in bricks and mortar but also personnel. Out went over-bearing and over-influential figures such as Paul Ince and Neil Ruddock; in came seasoned professionals such as Gary McAllister, a free transfer masterstroke, along with Hyypia and Stephane Henchoz, the outstanding central-defensive partnership.
It was the end of that golden England era. Peters was Ramsey's captain, with Moore replaced by Norman Hunter, on one of the dark nights of England's football history - 17 October 1973 and the final World Cup qualifier against Poland at Wembley that they needed to win to qualify for the 1974 finals in West Germany. It was a night that belonged to Poland goalkeeper Jan Tomaszewski, labelled "a clown" by Brian Clough, as he performed heroics and his goal led a charmed life as England could only draw 1-1.

One of the most important things – touching my heart – is that I am from Africa. There aren’t many African managers in the top leagues in England or Europe.

Some of my friends who have been playing maybe haven’t thought of that.

Or, as he put it more evocatively in the Times last month, “it was a scruffy scuff off my sock”. Sheringham’s first instinct was to check whether he had been flagged offside, even though he knew he wasn’t. Bayern were instantly flattened.

We have to be ready for 30 April'No decision has yet been taken on when the Premier League will return to action, and Alderweireld says all the players can do is to work to the date they have been given, with English football suspended until at least 30 April. The centre-back has all the fitness equipment he needs to train at home and is trying to take some positives from the situation. It's a strange feeling now - you want football back, you want everything to be normal again, but on the other hand I am at home and can spend a lot of time with my children," he says.
Tebas says two strategies are being worked on. One involves domestic league matches being played at weekends and European and general cup competitions in midweek. The second is to play blocks of fixtures, with domestic competitions being finished in June and July, before European games are played in July and August. With uncertainty over when the current restrictions across Europe will be lifted, Tebas said it was "logical" some leagues may start before others.
It means the FA Cup will be stuck at the quarter-final stage for a bit longer, promotion and relegation issues are unresolved and Liverpool nervously await the chance to complete their first league title triumph since 1990.
