Arsenal vs Bournemouth Preview

Arsenal vs Bournemouth 
Sunday 6th October
14:00
Emirates Stadium 
London 
On Sunday 6th October, Arsenal host Bournemouth at Emirates Stadium in the Premier League. The Gunners have only won once in their last five Premier League games, and despite being in the top four going into the weekend, this game presents the Cherries to leapfrog their hosts. 

 Arsenal come into this encounter following a comprehensive 4-0 victory in the Europa League against Standard Liège on Thursday night. Youngsters Gabriel Martinelli and Joe Willock got on the scoresheet, alongside Dani Ceballos, who scored his first goal for the club. 
 This game will be Arsenal's third of the week, following a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford, and the win against Standard Liège. 

 Bournemouth's form is certainly a mixed bag, drawing to West Ham last time out in the league, that was after a shock 2-0 defeat away at Burton Albion.

Arsenal have struggled defensively in the league this season, and those fragilities may continue into this weekend's fixture. Callum Wilson is in great form for Bournemouth this season, having scored in the last four league games. Wilson also enjoys playing against Arsenal, with the English striker having netted in three goals in the last four games against the Gunners'.

Arsenal 3-1 Bournemouth

France vs Uruguay Review

France 2-0 Uruguay  France are into the semi-finals of the World Cup for the first time since 2006 after beating Uruguay with the help of a terrible error by goalkeeper Fernando Muslera. This quarter-final tie did not come close to the excitement of Les Bleus' win over Argentina in the last 16 but will still be remembered for the goalkeepers displays, with Hugo Lloris producing a contender for save of the tournament while his opposite number made a mistake that was even more memorable and effectively knocked his own nation out of the tournament . Real Madrid's centre back Raphael Varane headed France into a first-half lead from a well executed free-kick , with Antoine Griezmann delaying his run before delivering the perfect cross for the defender to glance home. Uruguay had injured striker Edinson Cavani failing to make the bench, very nearly struck back immediately from a free-kick of their own, but Tottenham captain Lloris produced a brilliant diving stop to deny

England vs Tunisia Preview

Who starts for England tonight, how will Kane and Alli fare, the importance of Lingard and Sterling? For fans all across the United Kingdom, the journey is almost underway. Tonight, England get their World Cup campaign started, and it is of paramount importance we don't see a similar mentality to four years ago. I am absolutely confident we won't. This England side, unlike the squad of 2014, looks ready, and is packed with world class talent. If there's any time to show the world what they're made of, it's now. Despite not being an overly popular choice for manager, there is no denying that Gareth Southgate has done a fantastic job so far of getting his team in the best possible position to go all the way and try and bring this cup home. England did not lose a single game in qualifying, winning eight and drawing two. We have possibly the best striker in the world, Harry Kane, who has just come off of his best individual season with Tottenham Hotspur, netting thirt

Brazil vs Belgium Review

Brazil 1-2 Belgium Belgium produced an exceptional performance to knock the five-time winners Brazil out of the World Cup and reach the semi-finals for the first time since 1986. Roberto Martinez's Red Devils turned on the style in Kazan to record their fifth straight victory in the tournament and ensure that the semi-finals will be contested by four European sides for the first time since 2006. Brazil had previously conceded just one goal in their past four games in Russia 2018 but were behind early on when Nacer Chadli's corner struck Manchester City's Fernandinho's arm and flew into the net, and recording the 10th own goal of this World Cup. Fernandinho's Manchester City teammate Kevin de Bruyne doubled Belgium's lead with an astonishing finish that nestled in the far corner from 20 yards after Romelu Lukaku's dominating run. In a very entertaining and open game, Brazil wasted chances, and hit the post when the match was goalless, Thiago Sil
