Ten Hag: Ronaldo's time was 'over' at Juventus
The prospect of a general strike in France next week amid national protests has pushed UEFA to change a Europa League match date in Rennes.
AC Milan have condemned what they called "serious and unacceptable racist abuse" directed at goalkeeper Mike Maignan on social media following his red card in Thursday's Europa League loss to Bournemouth.
Wouter Vrancken hailed auxiliary left-back Rogers Mato for the way he stepped into the breach against Mohamed Salah as injury-hit Hearts produced a spirited display in a 2-0 Conference League defeat away to Trabzonspor.
Marco Rose said his Bournemouth team will stay humble after they dominated AC Milan 3-0 in the Europa League while Ruben Amorim said the match was over as a contest for his team after Mike Maignan's red card in the first half.
