West Bromwich Albion 1-1 Arsenal: Contentious Rodriguez penalty denies Gunners in final game of 2017
Jay Rodriguez netted a late penalty against Arsenal at the Hawthorns on New Years Eve to snatch a point for West Bromwich Albion.
The Baggies secured their fourth point under new boss Alan Pardew with the English forward s 89th minute spot-kick after Calum Chambers was adjudged to have handled the ball in the penalty area. The strike cancelled out Arsenal s late goal of their own as Alexis Sánchez s free kick found its way into the net via a touch from Baggies midfielder James McClean.
Arsenal hunt down top four
Arsene Wenger s men enjoyed a fast start at the Hawthorns and could have been ahead quickly but Alexandre Lacazette was unlucky to see his effort deflect just wide of goal. Alex Iwobi then found space in the West Brom penalty area but wasted the opportunity b…
Manchester United striker Dimitar Berbatov has been voted Bulgarian footballer of 2010 for a record seventh time, the Bulgarian Football Union announced on Monday.
Berbatov, 29, who last month scored an amazing five goals in Manchester United s 7-1 win over Premier League rivals Blackburn Rovers, also won in the title in 2002, 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008 and 2009.
Bulgarian Litex Lovech captain Ivelin Popov, who recently transferred to Turkey s Gaziantepspor, came second followed by Bulgarian national team and Dutch Twente goalkeeper Nikolay Mihaylov.

Christian Eriksen signed for Inter Milan from Tottenham for a fee in the region of £17million on this day in 2020.
The Denmark international joined Inter on a four-and-a-half-year deal following six-and-a-half years with Spurs, where he scored 69 goals and provided 89 assists in 305 appearances.
Following his departure, Eriksen posted on X, formerly Twitter: “Dear Tottenham fans, I don’t know where to start!
“I didn’t have time to say goodbye to everyone, even though I felt like I played a lot of games where everyone said and thought I would be gone the next day.
“I have so many unbelievable memories over the last 6.5 years I was at Spurs.
“I enjoyed being at the training ground every day and playing games in the stadium so much, but …
The NFL schedule giveth and the NFL schedule taketh away.
That’s the name of the game when using situational handicapping — also known as spot bets — to find hidden value when betting on the NFL.
We dig into what the schedule is serving up with our best NFL spot bets for Week 4, pushing pause on the stats, standings, and power rankings to size up the psyche of teams and uncover hidden edges.

Last weekend saw seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady come up short in his latest heroic postseason comeback attempt, as the Buccaneers clawed all the way back from a 27-3 deficit only to let it slip in the dying moments.
That loss to the Rams put an end to the Bucs’ title defense, but could it have also brought an end to Brady’s career? Despite the legendary quarterback putting together an MVP-worthy season at age 44, retirement talk has circled over the last week, including from Brady himself.
The NFL betting market is never too far behind, so Tom Brady retirement odds are on the board as the NFL’s most successful player ponders his future.

For many football fans making NFL picks and predictions, the Divisional Round is the best part of the playoffs.
Gone are the scrappy contenders of the Wild Card Weekend, leaving us with the NFL’s version of the Elite Eight. We don’t get the high stakes of the conference championships or the pageantry of the Super Bowl, but we have four solid NFL betting options on the board to keep us busy Saturday and Sunday.
Of course, this being a column titled NFL Underdogs (in which I can only make picks getting the points), we have to size up just how pups do at this point in the postseason.
Long-term, Divisional Round dogs have been pretty good at 47-35-1 against the spread since 2000-01 (57%). But while those underdogs went 3-1 ATS in las…
Looking through the Week 7 odds, I truly feel why fantasy football analysts call this “byemageddon” — there are six teams inactive this week, including some very fun defenses to attack for Overs (Tennessee and Carolina), as well as a few that help when betting the Under on NFL odds (Dallas and the New York Jets).
So, we’re left mostly to gleam through either a bunch of games involving the middle of the pack for making NFL picks this week… orrrrrrrr….. we just hammer what few bad defenses are available this week.
That sounds like the better option; so after fading the Giants, the Cardinals, and the Bolts with my first three NFL player props for this Sunday’s slate, I’m continuing to attack bad defenses (including pic…
It doesn’t get much better than this for an NFL regular season game. The Miami Dolphins will host the Buffalo Bills as the Fins will aim to do something they have not accomplished since 2008 on Sunday Night Football in Week 18 and win the AFC East.
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen is trying to prevent that. He’s had quite the adventurous season with some extreme highs and some low points that were just the same. Still, he sits in the season’s final week with the opportunity to cash in on the majority of preseason goals his team would have set.
You can see how I’m betting the Josh Allen odds as we dive into the Sunday Night Football odds in my free NFL picks below.

It took more than a year, but Aaron Rodgers finally has a victory under his belt as a member of the New York Jets.
The four-time MVP threw for 176 yards and two touchdowns as he guided Gang Green to a 24-17 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 2. It was just Rodgers’ third regular season game for the franchise as he makes his way back from a devastating Achilles injury suffered in his home opener in 2023.
A-Rod and the Jets will try to soar again when they take on the 1-1 New England Patriots tonight in primetime. The Pats are still smarting from a 23-20 OT loss to the Seahawks and enter the game as 6.5-point underdogs.
There are a number of subscription-based TV channels and streaming services available to watch this evening’s game, but did…
