He is revered at Turkish giants Fenerbahce, where he played for more than a decade. Rustu, 46, also had a short spell at Barcelona and retired from the sport in 2012, after a five-year stint with Besiktas. We convey our wishes for a speedy recovery to our former national team goalkeeper Rustu Recber who sported our jersey for many years; we wish for him to regain his health as soon as possible and hope to receive good news from him," Fenerbahce said on Twitter.
While Sociedad downed Real Madrid 4-3, at the Bernabeu, Mirandes secured their slot with a 4-2 home win over Villarreal. With good runs in the competition, and after elimination of the top sides in La Liga, both Mirandes and Sociedad will feel they have a real shot at the Copa del Rey this season. Mirandes twice lost the lead against Villarreal but went on to regain it before putting the game bed late on.
Both teams have scored in 62% of Newport’s home games but only 232% of their matches have featured over 2.5 goals, while 69% of Swindon’s away games have produced over 2.5 goals and both teams have scored in 62% of those away trips. The only thing stopping us from backing an outright win for the visitors on Saturday is the fact that Newport have a habit of drawing games at home, so the double chance bet covers both the away win or a stalemate.

Northampton are six places higher in the table than their opponents. Wasps have lost five of their seven league games this season. Two out of three Wasps home league games have ended in defeat. Northampton Saints are second in the Rugby Premiership, a point behind leaders Exeter Chiefs. They are not at their best on their travels though and will look to get a win away at tenth placed Wasps.
Assisted by Tristan Blackmon. Aston Villa's fans were brilliant when I was playing for them, and they were exactly the same right through Sunday's Carabao Cup final - despite most of it being a tough watch for them. When the final whistle went at Wembley, and all the Villa players were upset and on the floor after their 2-1 defeat against Manchester City, their fans were still there for them.
It's an iconic goal that can only be scored by a brilliant player. Brown: That changed their substitution plans! It was a goal beyond belief. McCall: It was a really disappointing end to a game where there was nothing in it. We had more than held our own, if the penalty went in then who is to say we wouldn't have gone on to win?Who got Gazza's shirt again? Rangers team-mates Ally McCoist and Paul Gascoigne swap shirts at the final whistle.
The club applied for permission to the local Safety Advisory Group (SAG) in December and hopes to be given the go-ahead to begin using the seats this season. Rail seats are designed to fold up, giving fans the option to stand. United have experienced long-running problems with fans refusing to sit down in parts of Old Trafford.
Things should be quite reserved by both sides and because of this we're predicting that the 2.5 goal line won't be beaten. Neither side look potent in attack and with a place in Europe's secondary competition up for grabs we can't see Brugge letting the game become open.
In addition to the fish on their crest with a star above it, added when co-founder Jon Turner passed suddenly last year, their jerseys feature "JAWN" across the front in reference to the regional slang used to stand in for pretty much any noun. View more on instagram"It doesn't say, like, 'Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Come visit!'" said Fishtown FC co-founder Phil Imhof, who has sent shirts as far away as Qatar to Philly natives serving in the military.
Porto did not look very good in the recent matches, after the long break due to the events that occurred outside of football, however they are ranked 2nd place with 60 points and are in race for the title. They host Maritimo, team who is ranked 15th place with only 25 points.
See what I have to say about Ferguson's management style so far in Crooks of the Matter below. Did you know? Mina made eight clearances and two blocks against Manchester United. Midfielders - John Fleck (Sheffield United), Jefferson Lerma (Bournemouth), Kevin de Bruyne (Manchester City), Dan Gosling (Bournemouth) John Fleck: Twenty five points after 17 league games? Every time I watch Sheffield United I'm left scratching my head wondering how a team playing such basic football can be fifth in the table.
I am going with away win in this fixture with at least a 2 goal margin. Away team find themselves in 2nd in the table and are 7 points from 1st spot. On the road they have managed to win 8 and drawn 3 of the 13 games played with them scoring 28 and conceding 14 goals. They have won 3 and lost 1 of the last 4
Indeed, this match between these two teams is likely to be an exciting match. For my part, it is better to play the safety by playing the draw this which seems to me a good option, so good luck to all and may the best prevail. Both teams have been so far remained unbeaten in the beginning of this new season. Taichung won 2 games and draw 2 games and should not be willing to give up against the league leaders here. Taipower has a great shape thanks to the 4 wins from the first 4 games, which also brought them the table leader title in this early time of the season. But the game plan came a little bit, this is the first test and that could well backfire with a defeat they will be careful.
Slip-ups will be punished at this stage of such an intense title race. Basaksehir do not want to make a fatal error, so will be playing at a level of intensity that we don't expect Gaziantep to match. Back the home team to win by at least two goals.
Given their recent scoring record at home, notching nine in five, scoring two or more in four of those, the hosts will fancy themselves to make headway on Sunday, though their defensive record is a big worry, especially given the attacking power of the visitors.
Celta's last seven fixtures at Balaidos have all produced fewer than 2.5 goals, with Celestes failing to score themselves in their last three. Mallorca meanwhile have seen over 2.5 goals netted in their last two away matches, but under 2.5 goals were registered in four of their five previous outings on the road with Los Bermellones failing to score themselves in four of those games.
But on Thursday, Brigid Simmonds, chairman of the Betting and Gaming Council, said: "Our members did not seek exclusivity for the rights to screen FA Cup games. They are therefore happy for IMG to offer the rights to screen these games to the Football Association or another appropriate body so that the games can be viewed for free by the public with immediate effect. The FA has said it will "review this element of the media rights sales process ahead of tendering rights from the 2024-25 season," but the government want it to look at taking action earlier.
The visitors have won once in their last seven matches to fall into trouble in the league. Leeds are now just six points clear of Brentford, while they meet the Bees at Griffin Park in less than a month. Before that, they face a difficult trip to QPR, a side who have caused Leeds problems here over the years.
Ross County have got the worst defensive record in the Scottish Premiership, at present. They have conceded 39 goals in 18 Scottish Premiership games. Ross County have also got the Scottish Premiership's worst home defensive record. They have conceded 19 goals in nine home games.
