UEFA will move the Women s Euro 2021 finals as part of its plan to reorganise the football calendar, the German FA has said.
Football authorities across the world are adjusting plans to cope with major delays caused by the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The women s European Championship finals had been scheduled to take place in England from July 7 to August 1 next year.
Those dates would mean an overlapping with the men s European Championship, which has been set back 12 months to run from June 11 to July 11 2021.
The German FA (DFB) said on Twitter that the Euro 2020 delay would affect the women s showpiece tournament, with no decision yet taken on when it might be played.
On its women s football account, the DFB said: The [UEFA] executive c…
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has admitted that he could retire from the game when his current contract expires in 2013, in an interview with France Football magazine published on Tuesday.
Gerrard made his debut for the club in 1998 and has since gone on to win two FA Cups, one League Cup, one UEFA Cup and the 2005 Champions League, when he inspired his side to a memorable comeback from 3-0 down against AC Milan.
I will be 33 at the end of my contract in 2013 and I don t know if I will go any further, said Gerrard, 29, who was named the Football Writers Association Footballer of the Year for 2008-09 after scoring 24 goals in all competitions.
If I do retire, then I will know that from the start to the end of my career I only had one club. And I don t want t…
Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes said he was never asked to play for England at Euro 2012.
The 37-year-old retired from international football after Euro 2004 to focus on his club career, and then hung up his boots entirely at the end of the 2010-11 season before making a comeback in January.
Scholes has suggested before that he regretted turning down the chance to play at the 2010 World Cup and has now hinted that he may have considered accepting a call-up if asked by Roy Hodgson ahead of the tournament in Poland and Ukraine.
I wasn t offered the chance, Scholes told reporters on United s pre-season tour when questioned about his potential involvement.
It has been reported that Hodgson expected Scholes to want to focus on his club career and d…
Market: Southampton win
Odds: 6/5 @
Looking to pile even more pressure onto Aston Villa this weekend, Southampton will welcome Dean Smith s strugglers to St. Mary s on Friday night.
Starting with the hosts, while Southampton might have endured a worryingly inconsistent start to the 2021/22 campaign, they will be desperate to build off of their recent showings. Although the Saints might have been left heartbroken to have seen their EFL Cup run come to an end away at Chelsea on October 26th, Head Coach Ralph Hasenhüttl last saw his side put in a rugged display. Claiming a 1-0 win away at Watford last weekend, the former RB Leipzig boss has seen his side collect seven points from their last three Premier League outings. Enjoying what has been by far their brightes…
England defender Lucy Bronze is drawing on the experience of her first World Cup eight years ago to allay fears that the Lionesses did not play like favourites in their 1-0 opening victory against Haiti in Brisbane.
That win, sealed by Georgia Stanway’s twice-taken penalty against a side 49 places below England in the FIFA rankings, extended the Lionesses’ streak without a goal from open play to three games, including their 0-0 behind-closed-doors pre-tournament training match with Canada.
Bronze made her World Cup debut at the 2015 tournament, where England fell to France in their opener but ultimately finished up with the third-place medal for their best-ever finish in a global showpiece.
She said: “Well, in my first World Cup we lost the first game and e…

The Jacksonville Jaguars and Dallas Cowboys will kick off their 2023 preseason on Saturday afternoon at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas.
Last season was considered a success for both teams despite losing in the playoffs. The Jaguars won the AFC South for only the second time since the 1999 season. The Cowboys went 12-5 and won only their fourth playoff game since 1996, and their first since 2018.
Do not expect to see much — if any — of the big names you know from both sides, but this could still be an entertaining game. Jacksonville and Dallas will both be looking to get some of their new starters some game action. This includes the returning Calvin Ridley.
