Emiliano Buendia scored an absolutely stunning goal for Norwich in their 2-1 loss to Watford.
Norwich City may be playing in the second division next season but they would do well to hang on to the Argentina man. Buendia scored the first goal of the match to give the Canaries the 1-0 lead.
Buendia received the ball inside the penalty area and curled one around a defender and into the net.
Lucas Ocampos scored the only goal of the match for Sevilla, played as goalkeeper following an injury and made an injury time save from the opposing goalkeeper.
You read that correctly. Lucas Ocampos did it all for Sevilla and got them the three points. Ocampos gave Sevilla the 1-0 lead, scoring his 13th goal of the season as they went on to get the 1-0 win vs. Eibar.
However, Ocampos was not done there. Goalkeeper Vaclik had to be taken off due to injury and it was the Argentina man who served as goalkeeper. Deep in injury time, Eibar were awarded a corner kick. The corner was taken and Eibar goalkeeper Marko Dmitrovic got on the end of it but Ocampos made the save for the win.

Argentina national team defender Lisandro Martinez gave an interview where he spoke about his goals with the national team, which defensive position he prefers and his time at Ajax.
Despite not being in the Netherlands for very long, Lisandro Martinez has found himself getting more and more playing time with the club. Also capped by Lionel Scaloni for Argentina, Lisandro is one for the future. Speaking an interview with AS, here’s what he had to say:
“I’m aiming on going to the Copa America, on being in the matches for the World Cup qualifiers and to be at the Olympics too. I haven’t had contact with the coaching staff but they made the remark while I was there that when you’re there and you put on the shirt, you shouldn’t take it off anymore. You have to take advantage of the opportunities.
“When they called me for the match against Venezuela, it was just immense joy, I was really emotional. We were there, with the best player in the world, with great players. Despite the defeat, the good thing was being there. I don’t think I played a bad games, I just played a bit. It was something I learned from, it was an experience, having to be stronger for the future, you have to work more, like I am now.
“With Ajax, I’ve played a lot of high-level games and that’s what the national team requires. More than anything, I take it as an experience.”
Lisandro Martinez is capable of playing as both a center back and as a left back. Here, he discusses it all:
“I had played very little matches as a full back. Once or twice as a professional. One time in training they told me to go in the middle and that was it. I took it well, I’m always there to help the team. I’m a player that looks a lot at the positions, I watch a lot of football.
“You’re adding to watch the coach asks of you. To watch videos and to learn, you always have to be informed. I’m a player that if the situation arises, I can play as a center back or as a full back. They are two positions that I like, I have no problem.”
Martinez also spoke about his time with Ajax:
“At first it was difficult, I had my translator and that’s how we spoke. After that, it was ab it more English and now I’m better, I could communicate well. In the first few months, Erik ten Hag (Ajax coach) put a lot of emphasis on pressure, on the control of the ball.
“If the pass was a bit high up, he’d get heated but little by little, everything went well.”
Claudio Caniggia found himself being the hero for Argentina on more than one occasion at the 1990 World Cup but ironically enough, couldn’t play when the team needed him the most.
The World Cup in Italy was one of many ups and downs for the then reigning world champions. A shocker of an opening loss, injury to the starting goalkeeper, a win against Brazil, a penalty shootout against Yugoslavia and a win against the hosts in the semi finals. Claudio Caniggia emerged through all of it as the star man alongside Diego Maradona.
Caniggia scored the goal for Argentina against Italy in the semi finals but also picked up a yellow card which meant that he would miss the final. Speaking in an interview with the AFA Play website, Caniggia revealed what was going through his mind and what he told then AFA president Julio Grondona:
“The moment that I got the yellow card, it was just anguish… I was bad for two minutes. I said: “Ay, mother f*****, if we make it to the final, I can’t play. It’s like this? It’s true?” I couldn’t believe it. Maybe there was a chance, I didn’t know how…
“When we were back with the team, I told him: “Julio, you have to do something, I can’t not play the final. There’s something you have to do.””
Paulo Dybala cannot stop scoring as he has netted once more for Juventus, this time in their 4-1 win vs. Torino.
With rumors of the league leaders looking to extend the Argentine’s contract, it’s easy to see why. Dybala has scored again and it’s another brilliant one to add to his growing collection.
Dybala received the ball inside the area, beat his man, cut inside, beat another and curled one passed the goalkeeper for the opening goal of the match. That brings his tally to 11 goals.
