Liverpool’s Jürgen Klopp frustrated by refereeing decisions in Leicester draw
• Klopp highlights penalty appeal and Harry Maguire foul
• ‘I think everybody agrees there could have been a penalty’
Jürgen Klopp claimed Liverpool were refused a clear penalty and Harry Maguire should not have been on the pitch to deny his Premier League leaders a seven-point advantage in the title race as Leicester secured a 1-1 draw at Anfield.
Liverpool extended their lead over Manchester City to five points but missed the opportunity to capitalise fully on the champions’ defeat at Newcastle United as they failed to beat a team outside the top six for the first time this season.

Maurizio Sarri admits: ‘Maybe it’s my fault – maybe I can’t motivate Chelsea’
• Sarri keeps Chelsea players behind for an hour after match
Maurizio Sarri has admitted he may not be equipped to motivate his players after seeing Chelsea suffer the heaviest league defeat of Roman Abramovich’s ownership at Bournemouth.
Sarri, who endured chants of “You don’t know what you’re doing” from Chelsea fans, kept his team in the dressing room for around an hour after the final whistle in an effort to understand why a game that had been goalless at half-time had unravelled so spectacularly. The defeat led to Chelsea dropping out of the top four on goal difference and places Sarri’s position under scrutiny six months into a three-year contract.

Llorente’s late winner against Watford breathes life into Tottenham title hopes
For Tottenham this was a night of a returning hero and, potentially, a new one. Time was running out, and the home side appeared to be heading for another defeat on the backs of those which had seen them depart two cup competitions in quick succession, when the goals they required for a turnaround arrived. The first was scored by Son Heung-min on his first appearance for Spurs since arriving back from the Asian Cup and then came the winner from someone who has been at the club all the while and finally may feel he belongs.
The mix of relief and joy on Fernando Llorente’s face as he celebrated his goal with three minutes of this contest remaining was as eye-catching as it was understandable. The Spaniard has found it hard going ever since he joined Tottenham from Swansea two summers ago and especially in recent weeks as he has been asked to fill in for the injured Harry Kane. Quite simply, he is not in the England captain’s class, and that has been noticeable, painfully so at times, as was the case here on 52 minutes when he missed an absolute sitter. Cue howls of fury from the majority of the 29,164 people in attendance – Tottenham’s lowest ever crowd for a Premier League fixture at Wembley – yet they were in raptures when the player finally came good.

Wilfried Zaha sees red after Southampton’s James Ward-Prowse denies Palace
After all the talk beforehand about this being a possible six-pointer, Southampton and Crystal Palace were forced to settle for one apiece on a night that ended amid acrimony and no little anger as Wilfried Zaha was sent off after being shown two yellow cards in quick succession.
Zaha, who had earlier scored his first goal in more than four months to put Palace ahead, gave Andre Marriner little option but to dismiss him when he sarcastically applauded the referee’s decision to book him, after he had squared up to James Ward-Prowse.

Transfer roundup: Everton told they must pay £35m to sign Michy Batshuayi
• Youri Tielemans set to join Leicester on loan
Everton are attempting to sign Michy Batshuayi on a permanent deal from Chelsea, with the Belgium striker expected to cost around £35m.
Batshuayi spent the first half of this season on loan at Valencia but has not made an appearance since the beginning of the month as the Spanish side attempt to cut short his spell. Despite interest from West Ham in taking him on loan, Chelsea have been searching for a permanent option for the 25-year-old and have held talks with Everton over a potential move, with the Londoners demanding more than the £33m they paid to sign him from Marseille in 2016.

Roma’s Dzeko sent off for appearing to spit at referee in 7-1 loss to Fiorentina
• Barcelona hit Sevilla for six in Copa del Rey comeback
Roma were thrashed 7-1 at Fiorentina and had forward Edin Dzeko sent off after apparently spitting at the referee, while the defending champions Juventus also lost in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals on Wednesday.
Federico Chiesa scored his first career hat-trick as Fiorentina raced into a 4-1 lead before Dzeko was shown a straight red card in the 72nd minute after arguing with referee Gianluca Manganiello and then appearing to spit at him. The Bosnian could face a lengthy ban if Manganiello confirms he was spat at in his official match report.

Emiliano Sala: UK military to hunt for missing plane
Underwater search follows discovery of cushions thought to be from footballer’s aircraft
British military investigators are to carry out an underwater search for the plane that vanished with the Argentinian footballer Emiliano Sala on board after his country’s government asked the UK to extend the hunt.
The development came as it emerged that two cushions believed to have come from the missing plane have washed up on the coast of France, about 20 miles from the last known location of the aircraft.

Bristol City’s Lee Johnson: ‘We are not really fancied and that suits us’ | Ben Fisher
After three years in charge, the Championship’s second longest-serving manager has built a confident and maturing side mounting an unlikely promotion charge
“Are we going to have a party?” Lee Johnson asks, tongue in cheek, on being reminded that next Wednesday marks three years since he returned to Bristol City as manager. “There has got to be something because, in this day and age, to last three years is ridiculous.”
That is depressingly true; 194 managers have left positions across English football’s top four tiers in that time, making the 37-year-old the second-longest serving in the Championship, behind Millwall’s Neil Harris. It has not been plain sailing but it is impossible to ignore the progress of his vibrant, young team – unbeaten in 12 matches having last tasted defeat on 24 November. The Robins are dark horses for promotion.

Arnautovic situation created ‘bad atmosphere’ at West Ham, says Zabaleta
• Arnautovic injury not as serious as first feared
Pablo Zabaleta has admitted the Marko Arnautovic transfer saga has had a destabilising effect on West Ham and has reminded the striker he must respect his teammates after his dramatic U-turn over a transfer to China.
The full-back made it clear that Arnautovic’s two-game absence before returning in the 3-0 defeat by Wolves had helped a “bad atmosphere” fester among the squad and in order for the club to evolve, the Austrian striker needs to show he is a team player.

Eleven Sports ditches Serie A in bid to prevent UK and Ireland closure
- Service will keep La Liga coverage and drop price
- Company has also lost Eredivisie rights
Eleven Sports, the self-styled “Netflix for Sports” controlled by the Leeds United owner, Andrea Radrizzani, has saved its UK and Ireland operation from closure after reaching deals to offload the rights to Italy’s Serie A and continue coverage of Spain’s La Liga.
In December, it emerged that the service, which launched last summer, was facing the prospect of shutting its streaming operation in the UK and Ireland after being unable to attract enough subscribers. The company attempted to renegotiate rights deals at a much cheaper rate to try and avoid pulling the plug.

Jordan Henderson’s right-back role made tougher by Puel’s tactical tweak
Liverpool’s captain impressed early on in defence but struggled up against Demarai Gray and was arguably at fault for Leicester’s equaliser
Getting the job done by any means necessary is a trait of any title winner and it will encourage Liverpool, even after an underwhelming draw against Leicester, how skilled they have been at the art this season. “It’s this mindset of ‘finding a way’ that will be critical for us,” said Jürgen Klopp on what is required in the final four months of a tantalising campaign. For the first time this season the leaders found no way to victory over a team outside the Premier League top six, but it could have been worse.
Klopp has sought a variety of internal solutions to the problematic right-back position that Leicester belatedly exploited at Anfield. On Wednesday it was Jordan Henderson’s turn to fill a role that Nathaniel Clyne, Rafael Camacho, Fabinho and James Milner have all assumed in recent months due to injuries, suspensions and illness. The England man deputised well but at cost to the control and balance of the Liverpool midfield. Klopp must hope positive medical bulletins on Joe Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold, who may return from knee-ligament trouble for Monday’s trip to West Ham, are accurate and that relief is on the horizon for the run-in.

Melbourne City a victim of their own success as W-League rivals catch up
They set the benchmark for the competition upon joining in 2015, now Melbourne City are eyeing a finals-less season
There’s only room in the W-League championship finals for one Melbourne team, it seems. As Melbourne Victory hope to wrap up their first minor premiership this weekend (and with a single point separating the top four, right now nothing is guaranteed), their noisy neighbours Melbourne City are staring down the barrel of their first final-less campaign.
Since entering the W-League in 2015, undefeated in that inaugural campaign, City have enjoyed an ever-presence in the finals, winning the W-League championship every year (their three-peat a record for both the A-League and the W-League). During this same period the Victory have have endured somewhat less salubrious fortunes, with two wooden spoons and a lower mid-table finish to show for their efforts.

Pochettino needed a trophy for Spurs this year as top-four battle gets tighter | Paul Wilson
Perhaps the kindest thing to say about Mauricio Pochettino’s honesty in excusing Tottenham’s removal from two cups in four days is that he cannot be accused of self-interest or personal promotion.
If it is true, and it seems widely accepted, that the Spurs manager’s name is on some very short lists for consideration at some of the most select clubs around Europe, there will be people at those clubs pointing out that for all his personable promise Pochettino has won precisely nothing yet, and furthermore his team have regained a reputation for choking when the important tests come along.

'There's a lot of time': Guardiola says Manchester City are still in the title race – video
Pep Guardiola remains confident that Manchester City are still in the title race despite losing 2-1 to Newcastle United. Newcastle pulled off a shock win to upset the champions, meaning City failed to close the gap on league leaders Liverpool.
Liverpool can now extend their lead at the top to seven points with victory over Leicester on Wednesday, but Guardiola think there's enough time to reduce the gap. He also refused to accept that his players may have underestimated their opponents and that Kevin De Bruyne's performance was to blame for the defeat.

Flops XI: the summer signings who have disappointed so far this season
The end of a transfer window can feel like a hopeful time for fans but, as this XI shows, not every signing goes to plan
By Martin Laurence for WhoScored
With the January transfer window closing at 11pm on Thursday, the next couple of days could shape the season for some Premier League clubs. Fulham would probably not be in the division this season were it not for the fact they signed Aleksandar Mitrovic this time last year. However, not all transfers are equal – as Fulham proved in the summer. Wrong moves in the market can be hugely costly as proven by this XI, who cost more than £200m in fees last summer but have not lived up to their promise.

Montilivi, not Miami, hosts Girona v Barcelona as Tebas loses his bet | Sid Lowe
It was Montilivi that watched it, that lived it, and that would have loved a different ending. Montilivi that deserved it, too
“Welcome to Miami,” the sign said. Scribbled in black pen on white cardboard and fixed to the fence by the stadium where long lines of tables were laid out and the atmosphere was building, it greeted them as they arrived – football fans heading to the biggest game of the year. Mostly, they strolled from town, through narrow, old streets, yellow ribbons attached to every lamppost, along the river where the houses overlooking the water are brightly coloured, not pastel, across the bridge and up a gentle hill in the sunshine. There, past concrete police controls was another sign, bigger and more professionally produced, yellow letters on a red backdrop covering the stand. “One team, one fanbase, one city,” it declared.
And that team, those fans, that city, was Girona. Not Miami.

Thierry Henry only has himself to blame for his failure at Monaco
Henry inherited a depleted squad but his negative tactics and immature man-management did not help his case
By Adam White and Eric Devin for Get French Football News
Appointing Thierry Henry as manager was always going to be a gamble for Monaco, but there was little to suggest his time in charge would end in such spectacular failure. Henry’s return to his boyhood club was an unmitigated disaster. Henry did oversee the odd decent result – including recent draws with Marseille and Nice in the league and progress to the semi-finals of the Coupe de la Ligue – but ultimately he paid the price for performances on the pitch and his own seeming contradictions.
The sheer number of injuries at the club did not work in his favour. More than a dozen first-team players were unavailable at various times, most notably Rony Lopes, who scored an incredible 14 goals in the second half of last season. However, even with the board’s backing – Monaco signed Naldo, Cesc Fà bregas and Fodé Ballo-Touré this month – the playing staff was not the main issue. Rather, Henry was held back by his own inconsistencies and immature attitude.

Serie A's weekend of thrills topped by great entertainers Atalanta again | Paolo Bandini
Other matches featured seven goals, two penalties and red cards but Atalanta’s comeback against Roma beat the lot
It was one of those days in Serie A. Oh, you know the sort: when the lunchtime kick-off features seven goals, two penalties, and a red card, but turns out not to be the most entertaining game of the afternoon. Next up on Sunday came a pair of three-goal comebacks plus a 4-0 away win for a Frosinone team that had only scored 12 times all season.
There was drama everywhere, from the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi – where Fiorentina blew a two-goal lead, then recovered to beat Chievo with 10 men – to the Tardini – where Spal ended an 11-game winless run after having trailed Parma 2-0 in the 70th minute. At the Renato Dall’Ara, following that drubbing by Frosinone, Pippo Inzaghi was expected to be sacked as Bologna manager.

Schalke’s fresh Bundesliga start stymied after bruising trip to Berlin | Andy Brassell
Even when things are going well with Schalke, you’re only ever half-a-mile away from getting a puncture
Sometimes you start out with the idea of a refreshing weekend away in Berlin – and end up tired and nursing a headache. Schalke may have arrived in the capital for Friday’s weekend opener with Hertha full of “new dynamism and new self-confidence”, according to their coach Domenico Tedesco beforehand, but their aim of snaring a third successive Bundesliga win didn’t go to plan.
Not only that, but the hangover will be felt for most of this week, and perhaps beyond. Tedesco could have few complaints over his side’s efforts, which backed his assessment of an upturn towards the output of his debut season. His newly-attacking Schalke led twice in a busy first half via a super effort from range by Yevhen Konoplyanka – restored to the line-up for the banned Weston McKennie – and one from Mark Uth, but were pegged back twice, with Vedad Ibisevic’s equaliser on the stroke of half-time ultimately earning Pal Dardai’s team a point.

Arsenal and Cardiff pay tribute to Emiliano Sala before match – video
Arsenal and Cardiff City held a pre-match tribute on Tuesday for Emiliano Sala in the Welsh club’s first fixture since the disappearance of the aeroplane carrying the striker. Arsenal hosted the Bluebirds at the Emirates Stadium with captains Mesut Özil and Sol Bamba laying flower wreaths in the centre circle before kick-off. Cardiff City fans displayed a banner that read ‘we never saw you play and we never saw you score but Emiliano our beautiful Bluebird we will love you forever more’

Italian football coach banned for butting rival at end of Serie C match – video
Serie C coach Giancarlo Favarin has been given a five-month ban for violently butting a member of the opposing team’s staff and telling a player to break an opponent’s legs.
Footage of the incident showed the coach of Lucchese butting Gaetano Mancino, assistant coach of rivals Alessandria, during a brawl in injury-time during a 2-2 draw between their teams on Sunday.
Serie C’s disciplinary tribunal said in a statement that Favarin made ‘blasphemous remarks’ during the match and ‘invited his own player to break the legs of an opponent’. Mancino, meanwhile, was given a two-match ban for ‘offensive and provocative behaviour towards the coach of the rival team during the match’

New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Is it just me, or is CSS too damn hard?
238 by napsterbr | 166 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN, I'm a seasoned backend developer and systems administrator, with over 10 years of full-time programming experience. I've worked with anything from Assembly, C, Rust all the way to Python, Erlang, Elixir, PHP, Haskell, Lisp, Clojure. When it comes to frontend, I have used React, Vue.js, ReasonML, Clojurescript and Elm extensively, and I know my way around web technologies in general. However, ever since I first started programming, I was NEVER able to get the gist behind CSS. I can't center my divs properly. I can't say "hey, CSS, this is the parent div, and all child divs must obey its size". I can't do anything basic on CSS without turning for help. Incidentally, but very likely related, I always failed to have any glimpse into how design works. I have no idea which colors "go" with which ones, and pretty much all fonts look like the same for me. I'd like to know the experience from fellow programmers. Is CSS an "art" thing? Is it common for other developers to have issues with it, or is it just me? Is there any material out there that made CSS "click" for you?
