NEUCHATEL, Switzerland, Feb 21 (Reuters) - Kosovo's remarkable rise in international football is often attributed to the passion of players representing a newly-independent country but coach Bernard Challandes says it has been as much about good football as pride. Less than four years after being accepted as FIFA members, Kosovo are a tantalising two matches away from Euro 2020, having reached next month's playoffs after a remarkable run in which they went 15 matches unbeaten including wins over the Czech Republic and Bulgaria.
The model work he did for Calvin Klein was a bit of a surprise to everyone but he has said that it forced him out of his comfort zone, and it probably did.

The Chelsea boss also singled out Sheffield United, plus Tottenham - who signed Netherlands forward Steven Bergwijn for £27m from PSV Eindhoven - for their dealings in the transfer market. Sheffield United have made some fantastic signings," added Lampard. Chris Wilder's job is incredible because he's had years to work with that group and now they are adding where they see that they need to. Tottenham have signed a few, and again, they are not far behind us.
Julian Brandt then added a second after a stunning 180-degree turn in the box in the 34th, as the visitors were completely outclassed in the first half. Leipzig twice went close in first-half stoppage time, forcing two consecutive fine saves from Dortmund’s Roman Buerki. Yet the Swiss keeper was beaten two minutes after the restart when he tried to head the ball away outside his box, but failed to get enough distance on his clearance and instead allowed Timo Werner to sneak in and score.
He then piled further misery on the hosts six minutes after the restart, running half the length of the pitch, shaking off one defender and curling a low shot past the Roma keeper for a 3-1 lead. Henrikh Mkhitaryan made it 3-2 in the 72nd but Roma were left with 10 men after Bryan Cristante was sent off in the 84th minute.
Western Sydney Wanderers have been struggling at home with only one win in their last seven league games.

Over 2.5 goals have been produced in 86% of PSV’s home games as well as in 86% of Fortuna Sittard’s away games, which backs up our prediction for a 3-0 PSV victory.
Tosun leads the counter-attack and rolls it to Zaha, who hits the post with goal open. The home fans at least have something to cheer about.

He's got another two-and-a-half years left on his contract, and he's fine. He will be there, everything will be fine," he said at an Association of Football Agents meeting in London.

Posted at 63' Corner, Everton. Conceded by Dwight McNeil. Posted at 62' Yerry Mina (Everton) wins a free kick in the defensive half. Posted at 62' Foul by Chris Wood (Burnley). Watford moved off the bottom of the Premier League table with a battling draw at in-form Sheffield United. The Hornets went ahead in the first half through Gerard Deulofeu's breakaway goal, but Oliver Norwood's penalty pegged them back before the break.
They started with a 0-0 draw with Valladolid before silencing Alavés 6-0 and beating Real Sociedad 1-0. They have four wins and just one loss in their last nine matches, which should give them confidence going to face Barcelona. At home, they have three wins and just one loss in their last eight matches; among the wins was a 2-1 victory over Sevilla.

Quang Nam is going to face Binh Duong. The hosts of this match won two of the last four matches in this season and scored six goals while conceded only one. They are one of the strongest teams in this league and I think that they will be able to win this match against Binh Duong. The visitors lost two matches of four and conceded 11 goals. They are a much weaker team and I don't think that they will be able to get even one point in this match against Quang Nam. My bet for this match is the hosts to win
Manchester City forward Lauren Hemp, 19, was given her first England start and impressed, while 21-year-old club-mate Georgia Stanway was given the nod ahead of Arsenal's Jordan Nobbs in midfield. But despite changes to the side, Neville admitted the Lionesses need to "start beating these teams consistently" and it is "a big obstacle we have got to overcome". Our team is different. There are a lot of young players in there.
The home side come into this game hoping to bounce back after Sunday’s defeat at Watford. They are now seven points behind the final Champions League place. Home form has been good though with three wins in the last four league and cup games and no defeats in the last 12 since losing to Crystal Palace.
It meant Ederson kept his 16th clean sheet of the season, enough to give him the Premier League's golden glove award outright after Burnley's Nick Pope conceded against Brighton. City finished runners-up, 18 points behind Premier League champions Liverpool - keeping the record they set for the biggest winning margin, 19 points in 2017-18. Manager Pep Guardiola will now turn his attention to the Champions League - they host Real Madrid in Manchester in the second leg of their last-16 tie on 7 August.
It’s a surprise that it’s taken this long for the hosts to make a managerial change to be honest. West Ham have won just two of their last 13 league matches and find themselves a point above the relegation zone, and now they’ll be looking towards the infamous new manager bounce effect to steer them away from the relegation battle.
I was developing bit by bit. Mbappe is already in his peak at 20. Insigne ruled out of Liverpool crunch clash Napoli have been dealt yet another blow with the news that Lorenzo Insigne out of Wednesday's Champions League clash with Liverpool at Anfield.

The hosts, 16th in the table, are only above the relegation zone thanks to their superior goal difference. The visitors, sixth in the table, remain two points behind Manchester United in the battle for Champions League football. Every point will count at the business end of the season and each team will be fighting tooth and nail to add to their total.
