Fenerbahce has been fined a total of 50,500 by UEFA for fan-related incidents during the Europa League match, which included damage to seating and the use of flares.

Youssef Chermiti's two for Rangers in Sunday's draw with Celtic, especially his overhead kick opener. Ultimately, the double didn't secure his team a win, despite putting the hosts into a commanding 2-0 lead by half-time. Comparisons to Scott McTominay's opener for Scotland in the World Cup-qualifying clinching 4-2 win against Denmark in November quickly followed.

Of course, I had to settle in first. I had an adjustment period, so things didn't quite go as planned on the pitch at the beginning. I had to get to know my teammates, and they had to get to know me - how to interact on the pitch, how to play together. That took a little while. But now, in the last few games, I'm very happy with my performances and how I've played.

Despite dragging themselves over the finishing line last season as they clung to their Super Lig status, it is no secret that Erling Moe's men are pencilled in as a standout relegation candidate in 2026. In fact, the former Molde boss has seen his downbeat squad register just a single victory from any of their previous 11 consecutive appearances across all competitions - a rut that stems all the way back to November 29th.

When it was reported that Milan were making a move towards Nkunku, many were left confused. The striker was not a cheap addition, yet he was the complete opposite of what Massimiliano Allegri had requested for months prior. Another technical player to add to the attack, instead of a physical profile, it was certainly a strange choice to make, especially considering the big fee. So, when he struggled to hit the ground running in Italy, those doubts were only made to look more reasonable.

Long known for its Carnival atmosphere, the RheinEnergieStadion was in real party mood after Ragnar Ache put the hosts ahead on the half-hour mark. But Bayern were in no mood for that, as Luis Díaz and Harry Kane flipped the game on its head in the space of seven minutes. Kane and Michael Olise then added gloss to the scoreline in the second half. Looking back now, that defeat was the start of a change for Köln.

Turkiye's main Kurdish football team has been fined for ideological propaganda in favour of Kurdish forces in northern Syria, the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) has said. Amedspor FC, which is based in Diyarbakir, the main city in the Kurdish-majority southeast, was fined 802,500 Turkish lira (nearly $18,500) and its president slapped with a 15-day suspension from all football activity, the TFF said in a statement late on Thursday.

"He is like my son,"

With all the January transfer window talk, it is sometimes easy to forget that football matches are indeed actually won and lost on that green thing. The chaotic and unpredictable EFL continues to deliver for better or worse depending on your allegiances. With West Bromwich Albion on a downward spiral, Liam Manning back in work at Huddersfield and the small matter of the first south coast derby in a league fixture at Fratton Park for more than 14 years,

We didn't see this coming, and not only because of the fog of pyro lingering over the RheinEnergieSTADION field that furnished us with 11 minutes of first-half stoppage time.
