Barca, Juve, RM snap back at UEFA threats

After a delicate reverse pass from Luka Modric, Vinícius Júnior found himself on the left-hand side of the penalty area with the ball at his feet. This was a very familiar position for the 19-year-old and before he had time to mentally replay the myriad of squandered chances this territory usually beckons, he delicately dinked the ball over the onrushing goalkeeper. Vinícius and the Mallorca defence look on as the Brazilian gives Real Madrid the lead with a deft finish Admittedly, five minutes...

Anekeya: Former Zoo FC defender explains his situation amidst Covid-19

Arsenal can defend it seems. Thursday night's victory over Southampton may not have been the Gunners most impressive, nor most free-flowing performance of the season, but it signified the defensive capabilities of Mikel Arteta's inexperienced side. After the calamitous performance of David Luiz against Manchester City last week, as well as the last-gasp slip up against Brighton on Saturday, it appeared that Arteta really did have his work cut out in improving a seemingly fragile defence.
