Real Madrid are fully aware of the threat Lewandowski poses as in the 2012-13 campaign the Poland worldwide scored four goals while playing for Borussia Dortmund , knocking the Spaniards out of the tournament. Despite dropping points as they drew with Atletico Madrid last time out, Real Madrid actually managed to extend their lead at the top of La Liga to three points after second-placed Barcelona lost to Malaga.

Subjected to vitriolic abuse from supporters during their fifth defeat in their last eight games and labelled as "cowards" by former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher, Wenger's sixth placed side can't afford another debacle as they try to close the seven-point gap on the top four.

But Leander Dendoncker salvaged Anderlecht the draw late on and Mourinho was left agitated by the performances of Marcus Rashford, Jesse Lingard, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and substitute Anthony Martial. I believe and want to do that, not just for myself but for the fans that have been behind me. "But we have been playing so well for so long it is just that edge, that little bit of something, to finish teams off".

That lack of cutting edge reared its head again on Thursday as Anderlecht snatched a late 1-1 draw in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final. "They have a certain style of play, they stick to it, they do it very well". They are very objective in the counter-attack and they have individual players out of the context of the game that can also resolve the problems.

The fact is that, despite the rough spots, only four teams finished with a better record than the Cavs' final mark of 51-31. "We don't have the best one-on-one defenders", Lue said. Irving, James and Love get most of the attention, but guard Kyle Korver off the bench will be an important part of Lue's game plan. For the month, the Pacers ranked third in the National Basketball Association in scoring (115.5 ppg) and fourth in field goal percentage (50.1) and point differential (plus-11.7).

Sergio Garcia's Masters victory coming on what would have been the 60th birthday of his mentor and countryman Seve Ballesteros received a great deal of attention, more than it should have, Martin Samuel argues in the Daily Mail . "In 13 years I've come to the conclusion that I need to play for second or third place". Garcia and Rose both carded 69 to finish tied on nine-under-par 279, three strokes clear of 2011 Masters champion Charl Schwartzel of South Africa, sending the year's ...

The Bruins may have had a shot-less second period, but there was no shortage of excitement in Game 1 of the team's playoff series against the Ottawa Senators. Goaltender Craig Anderson, who took a leave from the team while his wife battled cancer, won all four starts against Boston this season. Derick Brassard and Kelly were acquired in the off-season, while Alex Burrows, Viktor Stalberg and Tommy Wingels all arrived prior to the trade deadline.

Given the Jays' early offensive struggles, they could use a few easy marks on the opposite side. Sanchez is 5-2 with a 3.88 ERA in 13 career appearances (eight starts) against Baltimore. The question is whether the Blue Jays will keep digging or put the shovels away. He did just that Thursday night, holding the struggling Blue Jays to five hits and one run in six innings as the Baltimore Orioles won the opener of a four-game series 2-1.

We're just two races into the 2017 Formula One championship, and it already looks like this season is going to be a classic. "That's what racing is all about". "And Ferrari are the best they have been in a decade". "We couldn't prove that today but next time we will". "Lewis was quick. full stop", Vettel conceded.

However, the Bruins - as they have for much of Bruce Cassidy's brief tenure - were able to dig deep and find a way to win, scoring two third-period goals en route to a 2-1 win over the Senators in Game 1 of their Stanley Cup playoffs first-round series.

Ricciardo finished third in the day's second practice session, followed by Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen. But early on in what was expected to be a long run to evaluate race performance, Vettel's auto suffered what he called a "complete shutdown" over the radio.
